New Brighton Rd’s eyesore 

Council fails 

to clean up 

the mess 

• By Matt Slaughter 

PLEAS TO clean up piles of 

shingle and roading metal at 

a New Brighton Rd car park 

appear to have fallen on deaf 

ears. 

Coastal-Burwood Community 

Board chairwoman Kim Money 

said the piles in the riverside 

car park, opposite 

The Bower and Urban Corner 

Cafe, had 

been there 

for “a very, 

very long 

time.” 

In spite of 

the board’s 

requests 

to clear it 

up, the city 

council has 

Kim Money 

not acted. 

The city 

council has 

also not responded to questions 

from Pegasus Post. 

Ms Money said the piles are 

affecting the appearance of the 

area surrounding the car park, 

which includes businesses on the 

other side of the road. 

“Visually it’s just an eyesore

DUMPING GROUND: This car park on New Brighton Rd, opposite The Bower, has been covered with piles of shingle and roading 

metal for “a very, very long time”. 

and our community deserves 

better,” she said. 

“We just want to know who’s 

doing it and we would like it 

stopped and we would like it to 

be tidied up because it’s making 

the area look extremely 

scruffy and the retail area’s got 

enough to deal with without 

having this look like that,” she 

said. 

The Bower and Urban Corner 

Cafe manager Vicki Blake 

said its patrons used to park 

in the Cockayne car park, where 

the piles are, but they had not 

been able to since the scrap metal 

was dumped there.

CITY COUNCIL staff must be very busy 

– or ignoring an eyesore in the eastern 

suburbs. 

The car park opposite The Bower has 

been a small mountain of gravel for a 

longtime (see page 1). 

Community board chairwoman Kim Money has requested 

information from the city council about when it will go, but 

there has been no response. Pegasus Post has got the same 

treatment. We asked questions two Fridays ago. We are still 

waiting for an answer. 

Speaking of that car park, I recall an incident years ago 

involving a likeable chap called Larry, and two guys trying to 

break into cars. The two guys ended up on the deck, Larry was 

cheered back into the bar, and became known as Larry the Lion.

Fire rages, homes at risk 

Flooding costs holiday park 

Owners ask 

for help to 

fix problem 


HEAVY RAIN has forced the 

South Brighton Holiday Park to 

close four times in the past two 

years. 

Park manager Sam Hawkins 

estimates closing due to 

flooding has cost the park more 

than $8000. It had to close over 

Queen’s Birthday weekend. 

He said the park needs help to 

deal with the flooding. 

Mr Hawkins addressed the 


Board last week, where he 

outlined his concerns over 

the impact heavy rainfall has 

had on the park, including 

the downpour over Queen’s 

Birthday weekend. 

The board has requested 

urgent advice on how flooding 

can be dealt with and has asked 

for site meetings to take place 

between holiday park staff, 

city council staff and board 

members. 

Mr Hawkins said the drainage 

system at the holiday park has to 

be improved, as it has not coped 

with the heavy rain. 

“If it gets too bad we have to 

shut the park due to sites being 

unusable,” he said. 

“It affects most of our camp 

because we’re quite low-lying. 

There are puddles pretty much 

through most of the camp, the 

roadways, everything like that, 

so then it affects the grass with 

oversaturation and people drive 

on it, which creates mud and 

headache after headache.” 

The flooding over Queen’s 

Birthday meant the park had to 

turn away guests, Mr Hawkins 

said. 

“It’s affecting the income 

revenue, but also affecting 

having staff working longer 

hours and coming in on their 

SODDEN: Flooding at the South Brighton Holiday Park has caused it to close four times in the

help reduce the flooding. 

days off to help pump the water 

away and then the cost of reinstating 

the grass areas and any 

damage to roadways. 

Currently, the only tool the 

holiday park has to manage 

flooding is one petrol-powered 

water pump, which is not been 

able to deal with the problem on 

its own. 

Mr Hawkins said he wants the 

city council to provide a larger 

water pump to clear stormwater 

lines, and the area’s water 

storage and drainage systems 

need to be improved. 

Mr Hawkins hopes a meeting 

to discuss these options with 

city council staff will take place 

before the holiday park floods 

again. 

“Hopefully, before the 

next rainfall, there’s some 

action with at least a decentsized 

pump or something 

like that to help alleviate the 

problem.”

MOOSE’S MISADVENTURE 

Meet Mr Moose, a 7 week 

old White Swiss Shepherd 

who our vet Kirsty saw 

on Saturday for anorexia, 

straining to defecate and 

vomiting for the past 24 

hours. Moose had Giardia 

as a wee puppy and 

was treated whilst at the 

breeders. On examination 

Moose was alert and 

interactive but extremely 

painful on palpation of 

the abdomen, hunching 

and crying when touched. 

Kirsty didn’t feel he was 

constipated. He was very lean and dehydrated. 

Being so young, Kirsty was concerned at 

his level of pain so he was admitted for 

Intravenous fluids, pain medications and xrays 

to determine the cause of his pain. 

Plain radiographs didn’t show much initially 

so we went straight into contrast studies, 

administering barium orally. The xrays looked 

pretty and we had a hunch he either had an 

intestinal foreign body, an intussusception 

or severe gastroenteritis. The pain relief we 

had administered 

hadn’t really settled 

him at all. His blood 

testing revealed 

an anemia and 

an inflammatory 

response. 

After close 

consultation 

with the owners, 

Kirsty felt it the 

right option to 

anaesthetise 

Moose and have 

a look inside to see what was going on. She 

didn’t feel he was improving and that it 

wouldn’t be right to wait another 24 hours. 

On surgical examination, Moose 

was diagnosed with a jejunojejunal 

intussusception – this is where an inflamed 

section of bowel has slipped inside another 

segment of bowel (prolapse), effectively 

obstructing and restricting the movement of 

ingesta through. 

This can happen 

in any part of the 

gastrointestinal 

tract. It is more 

common in 

younger animals 

and often occurs 

in association with 

a worm burden, 

recent diarrhoea, 

a foreign object 

in the gut, intense 


contractions or 

recent bowel 

surgery. Moose did 

have Giardia as a 

young puppy and 

was treated for this. 

Gastrointestinal intussusceptions are 

serious with severe complications if not 

corrected surgically. These can be electrolyte 

imbalances, severe dehydration, death 

(necrosis) of bowel tissue due to constriction 

of the blood supply and severe toxaemia. 

Clinically these dogs present with bloody 

diarrhoea, straining to pass faeces, weight loss, 

occasional vomiting and loss of appetite. 

Luckily for “Moose” our vet Kirsty was onto it 

late on a Saturday afternoon. Waiting another 

24 hours for surgery 

could have been 

too late for Moose. 

Kirsty easily reduced 

the prolapsed 

bowel and 

checked the entire 


tract for any other 

abnormalities. 

The bowel looked 

essentially healthy. 

Kirsty biopsied a 

piece of bowel 

tissue just in case there is an underlying cause 

as it why this occurred. We are still awaiting 

these results. 

Moose has recovered very well from his big 

ordeal. He needed to spend a few nights at 

our After Hours clinic for around the clock 

monitoring, basically due to him undergoing 

major surgery at only 13 weeks of age. He was 

discharged on pain medication, antibiotics 

and gut protectants. We are 

awaiting bowel biopsy and 

fecal testing results to see if a 

cause can be attributed to the 

intussusception. He’s back on 

his food, maintaining his weight 

and healing well. He’s simply 

adorable and very huggable. 

Well done Kirsty for another 

great surgical success. Steve 

and I are very proud of our staff, 

always going the extra mile 

for their patients, regardless if 

these patients are seen over a 

weekend or late at night.

MESSAGE: Aranui’s Arwen Valks wants to publish a book that could help people 

with mental health struggles. 

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER 

Bid to self-publish book 

to help anxiety, 

depression sufferers 


ARWEN VALKS says 

no one should have to go 

through depression and 

anxiety alone. 

The Aranui resident has 

been through this herself 

and knows how hard 

things can get. 

Now, Mrs Valks wants to 

publish Rupert’s Black Dog, 

a book she has written 

for young people who are 

facing similar struggles, or 

might do in the future 

A Givealittle page she 

started has already raised 

$1656. 

Mrs Valks wants to 

raise $5000 at least, which 

would publish about 250 

books, but said the more 

she raised the more people 

the book would be able to 

help. 

She said the story followed 

a young boy who 

discovers his anxiety and 

depression through talking 

to a black dog and learns 

how to deal with it and 

share what he is feeling 

with others. 

Mrs Valks said she felt 

the message of the book 

would be of value to both 

young people with mental 

health problems and their 

parents. 

“There are way too many 

precious, amazing, beautiful 

little people who can’t 

see that about themselves 

and who get stuck in this 

cloud and think their only 

way out is to call time out 

on themselves and it’s just 

heartbreaking and it’s 

completely unnecessary.” 

Part of her inspiration 

for writing the book was 

the mental health struggles 

she went through after the 

birth of her 19-month-old 

daughter Zuri. 

Mrs Valks said if her experience 

with anxiety and 

depression since she was 

a child, which had shaped 

some of the themes of the 

book, could help others she 

would have done her job. 

“If me going through 

all of this and writing this 

book makes things better 

for half a dozen people, 

then it’s worth it. “ 

Mrs Valks said she had 

sent Rupert’s Black Dog to 

some publishers, but nothing 

had come of this yet. 

Her decision to fundraise 

and self-publish was 

because she wanted to get 

the book out and start 

helping people as soon as 

possible. 

The dog in the story was 

named after her friend 

Rupert Hill-Hayr, who illustrated 

the book for free. 

The Givealittle page 

for the book closes at the 

end of this month and 

Mrs Valks said every 

contribution would help.

Local 

News

BOTTLE LAKE Forest Park is a 

haven for walkers, runners and 

cyclists. But, it’s not all fun and 

games. 

A lack of signage at the forest is 

causing people to get lost and has 

resulted in police call-outs. 

The city council says there 

is enough signage already 

and people who get lost will 

eventually be found. 

“While there is the occasional 

lost park user, the forest’s 

popularity is such 

that it is only a 

temporary issue 

until someone 

comes along,” 

city council 

staff told the 

Tim Baker 

Coastal-Burwood 

Community 

Board, which 

has asked for more and better 

signage. 

The community board was 

also told: “Bottle Lake Forest 

Park has sign panels at every 

major entranceway, as well as 

sign panels placed in strategic 

locations throughout the forest; 

eight in total. Maps of the forest 

are available freely from the 

information centre and Spencer 

Park, as well as being available 

for download off the web.” 

But Burwood Ward city 

councillor Glenn Livingstone and 

board member Tim Baker said 

this was not good enough. 

Said Cr Livingstone: “I’ve been 

there when police have turned 

up looking for someone and 

they are there quite regularly, so 

with better signage, it could help 

reduce police call-out time to 

Bottle Lake.” 

Police search and rescue 

co-ordinator Sergeant Phil 

Simmonds told The Star on 

average there are between five 

and 10 call-outs a year for people 

who get lost in Bottle Lake Forest 

Park. 

They include young children 

separated from their families and 

lost walkers. 

“People are usually located 

quite quickly due to the size of 

the park and also the fact there is 

good cellphone coverage in most 

of the forest. Police encourage 

people heading out into the forest 

to take note of the available maps 

and track names, and always go 

prepared,” he said. 

Mr Baker said the signage 

currently in place is too vague 

and there is not enough. 

He has been lost in the park on 

his bike before. 

“I for one have got lost in there 

when it’s starting to get dark and 

it wasn’t a nice feeling.” 

Mr Baker said more small 

signs, saying things like “Bottle 

Lake Car Park 1km” are 

necessary. 

The community board has 

asked city council staff to discuss 

the cost and logistics of installing 

more signage with it. 

YOU ARE WHERE? The lack of 

signage at Bottle Lake Forest 

Park has resulted in people 

getting lost and police callouts.

will open on June 17 and close 

on July 8 before being approved 

by the Linwood-Central- 

Heathcote Community Board 

and city council in August. 

Speed limit drops around 

Sumner will be consulted on at 

the same time. 

The Esplanade would have a 

speed limit of 30km/h, while a 

large part of residential Sumner 

would be dropped to 40km/h. 

The move follows previous 

consultation on the Sumner 

and Ferry Rd master plans, 

which approved implementing a 

12-month trial. 

The area’s master plan 

was approved in 2014 and 

currently streetscape upgrades 

for the village are in the design 

phase. 

It features wider footpaths 

and cycle lanes, upgraded 

crossings and street lighting. 

A laneway linking Ferry Rd

REUNITED: Bill Lochrie and seven of the original navy crew members who travelled 

to Antarctica with him in 1970-71 at a four-day reunion event at the beginning of this 

month. (Left to right) – Ted Haar, John Hutching, Terry Gunn, Bill Lochrie, Pat Katipa, 

Ian Jacques and Keith Ingram. 

MEMORIES: Bill Lochrie (back row, far right) and his crew on the forward 

hold of the HMNZS Endeavour in 1971. 

Navy mates relive Antarctic experiences 


BILL LOCHRIE set sail for 

Antarctica on the HMNZS 

Endeavour as a navy engineer 48 

years ago at the age of 22. 

Some of Mr Lochrie’s best 

memories of his life were made 

on this journey. 

He was with the Royal New 

Zealand Navy for almost nine 

years. 

The New Brighton RSA 

president was reunited with 

seven of his fellow crew members 

who travelled on this 1970-1971 

expedition at the beginning of 

this month. 

The event was organised jointly 

by the New Brighton RSA and 

Rangiora RSA. 

About 60 ex-navy staff who 

travelled to Antarctica in years 

including 1957-58 and 1965 also 

attended to reconnect with old 

friends and remember their 

journeys. 

Mr Lochrie said the reunion 

was special and just like old 

times. 

“We’re all a lot older, but we 

call ourselves matelots [French 

for sailors] and the matelot sense 

of humour never changes. We 

had a great time. 

“A lot of humour and words 

were generated through us 

having a few tots and telling old 

stories and old lies.” 

Leading seaman on the 1970- 

71 expedition Keith Ingram, 

who lives in Auckland, said the 

reunion also had a special link to 

Sir Edmund Hillary. 

Mr Ingram said the 1957-58 

navy crew delivered the Tucker 

Sno-Cat tractor to Hillary’s 

Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic 

Expedition partner Vivian Fuchs 

to make his way from Antarctica 

to the South Pole. 

Fuchs arrived at the South Pole 

on January 20, 1958, 16 days after 

Hillary. 

Mr Ingram and Mr Lochrie’s 

crew picked up the sno-cat from 

McMurdo Sound and brought it 

back to New Zealand in 1971. 

It is now on display in 

Canterbury Museum’s Antarctic 

section, which was visited as part 

of the reunion. 

Other highlights of the fourday 

event included a visit to the 

International Antarctic Centre 

and the Air Force Museum of 

New Zealand and dinner at the 

Rangiora RSA Club, said Mr 

Lochrie.

anything that helps actually the 

road or things get fixed quicker 

because it’s more accessible for 

them, I always think is a good 

thing.” 

Ms Money was unsure whether 

dumping in the car park was 

illegal, but said the city council 

should have told the community 

board why the car park has been 

full of scrap metal for so long. 

“Contractors or somebody is 

dumping stuff there, whether it’s 

illegally or whether they’ve got 

permission, I don’t know, but the 

board would just like to know 

who is dumping and why are they 

dumping it and if it is legal how long 

are they going to be dumping for . . . 

if it’s not legal then let’s stop it.” 


SCHOOL PUPILS, community 

members and sports stars 

gathered on Wednesday to 

celebrate the completion of 

upgrades to Thomson Park in 

New Brighton. 

Rawhiti School pupils, 

Canterbury Rams and 

Canterbury Wildcats basketball 

players were among more than 

100 people who attended the 

event. 

The pupils took part in 

basketball games and drills 

run by the players on the 

new International Basketball 

Federation standard court at the 

park. 

There was a sausage sizzle and 


Board chairwoman Kim Money 

spoke. 

Along with the construction 

of the basketball court, the park 

upgrades have involved putting 

in a brand new car park, toilet 

facility, bike stands, picnic area, 

pathways and greenery. 

Ms Money said the project 

had taken about 12 weeks to 

complete and it had been great 

to see people finally enjoying the 

park again at the event. 

“It was so exciting just to see 

those kids, the expressions on 

their faces. 

“They were just going for it 

while I was doing my speech and 

I thought, yes, that’s the way it 

should be.” 

She said the upgrades 

had been worth the wait. City 

council staff and contractors 

who helped complete the work 

were there to celebrate. 

“The job has just been 

outstanding and the

Young leader off to China 

AVONSIDE GIRLS’ High School 

student Kathrine Wiki Arapeta 

will play a key part in the New 

Zealand China Youth Leadership 

Summit. 

It will be the year 13 student’s 

second summit after she travelled 

to China for the event last year. 

St Andrew’s College will host 

the summit, which is set to run 

from July 13-23. 

Kathrine will attend this 

year’s event as a youth leader. 

She said the best part about the 

previous summit was discovering 

and sharing in a new culture. 

“I personally, got a whole 

new outlook on the world, how 

every country fits together, and a 

vision for the future of bringing 

countries closer together. It 

definitely helped to prepare us for 

our own future, how we could be 

leaders of our own country, and 

how we could work together with 

people from other countries.” 

The event will celebrate the 

close relationship between sister 

cities in New Zealand and China 

by bringing together about 100 

student leaders from the two 

nations. 

Senior high school student 

leaders, along with first-year 

tertiary students, are invited to 

apply to take part. 

This summit aims to empower 

students to be effective, culturally 

aware, socially responsible 

YOUNG LEADER: Avonside Girls’ High School student Kathrine 

Wiki Arapeta will take part in her second New Zealand China 

Youth Leadership Summit next month. 

global citizens. Founder Jan Fitz- 

Gerald said delegates will learn 

about the importance of China 

and New Zealand’s long-term 

relations, make new friends and 

gain a deeper understanding of 

each other’s culture and customs. 

“We will provide opportunities 

for all students to develop skills, 

knowledge and capabilities to 

be global citizens and effective 

future leaders in a challenging 

world,” she said. 

Keynote speaker Stephen 

Jacobi, of the New Zealand 

China Council, will be joined 

by a host of other speakers and 

presenters. 

Students will learn about 

leadership in a cross-cultural 

environment. Workshops, 

lectures and forums will cover 

topics on being prepared 

and working together, global 

relations, cultural intelligence, 

social responsibility and 

resilience. 

Students will also produce and 

present a group project. 

St Andrew’s College rector 

Christine Leighton was delighted 

to be hosting the event. 

“This is a fabulous opportunity 

for young New Zealanders to 

learn and grow as global citizens 

and future leaders.”

Fasting gets boxer 

CHAMP: Byron 

Antal shows off 

his South Island 

Golden Gloves 

most improved 

trophy. 

a bout – and a win 

• By Jacob Page 

WOOLSTON BOXER Byron 

Antal’s success at the South 

Island Gloves has been more 

than 12 months in the making. 

The 15-year-old, who stands 

193cm and used to weigh 110kg, 

has not been able to find an 

opponent in more than a year. 

To find someone to box, 

Byron lost 17kg through 

intermittent fasting, then 

stepped into the ring at 93kg. 

His hard work paid off – not 

only did he beat Marlborough’s 

Elevisi Kaloni to win the junior 

male novice South Island 

title but he was also named 

most improved boxer at the 

tournament. 

“The whole thing was surreal,” 

he said. “I was just sitting there 

at prize-giving and I heard my 

name called.” 

Byron, who lives in New 

Brighton and plays under-16 

rugby for St Bede’s College, said 

he was thrilled to find a bout 

and it validated his effort at 

training. 

“I felt really good in there, 

considering it had been a while,” 

he said. 

“I was happy with my jab 

and my work rate in there. 

Sometimes you get impatient 

and frustrated just training, but 

it’s a waiting game.” 

He had the support of his 

Woolston Boxing Club trainers, 

who went on the weight-loss 

journey with him. 

“I have been having my first 

meal at 12pm and then a dinner 

between 5pm and 6pm and 

nothing else besides water and 

it’s worked.” 

Byron started boxing in 2015 

as a way to get fit during the 

rugby off-season. 

“I didn’t really think I would 

like it, but I kept with it and 

realised I really enjoyed it. 

“At the start, I was training 

hard but I wasn’t looking 

to improve and I was quite 

stubborn, but then I started to 

take advice on board and get 

better. The coaches say I need 

to use my jab, my hook and my 

right.” 

Byron said he would like to 

force his way into Canterbury 

teams this year and then push 

his claim for national honours.

sealing a spot in the Canterbury 

premier men’s indoor cricket 

team for the second year 

running. 

The 18-year-old former Shirley 

Boys’ High School student was 

in fine form and, over Queen’s 

Birthday weekend, anchored 

his team into a last-ball thriller 

which saw the Hornby Titans, 

take out the South Island Indoor 

Cricket Championships at Riccarton’s 

Howzat! Indoor Sports 

Centre. 

James’ team stole the grand 

final, defeating Dunedin’s Metro 

Muskets 86-83 in a match never 

lacking fast-paced action. 

James said the Hornby team 

“had to dig it in’’ for the last four 

games, after a loss to Central 

Sharks and the Metro Muskets in 

the round-robin games. 

Their remaining games were 

“must-win matches” to keep in 

the running for the final, where 

his team had redemption against 

the Metro Muskets to take home 

the title. 

Canterbury squads were selected 

at the end of the tournament 

with James lowering the team’s 

average age. 

Coach John McCarthy will 

lead his team of 11 into this year’s 

national indoor cricket championship 

in late July at Palmerston 

North. 

The team consists of Ryan 

James, Craig Stevens, Micah 

Campbell, (Action Hornby) 

Mitch Gardner, Taylor Irie, Tom 

Agnew, Ben Cochrane, (Howzat 

Riccarton) Carl Hooper, Dan 

Vann, Tom McDonald and 

Jackson Hemingway (Action 

Central). 

James will head north with 

the Canterbury premier men’s 

team to compete against teams 

from Auckland, Wellington, 

Central, Northern and Southern 

Districts at the national tournament. 

He is hoping to finish 

ahead of last year’s modest fourth 

place, the team missing out on 

a chance at the final by just two 

points. 

New Zealand indoor cricket 

selectors will be on the lookout at 

the upcoming national tournament 

to select their squads to

12 and 14. 

The transtasman series 

will have competitive 

fixtures across the under-21 

boys and girls, and open premier

Making korfball 

team exceeds 

expectations 

• By Jacob Page 

AVONSIDE GIRLS’ High 

School korfballer Caitlin Sadler 

is keen to grow the sport she 

loves across New Zealand. 

The 17-year-old was selected 

to the all stars tournament 

team after 

representing 

New Zealand 

at the under-21 

Oceania tournament 

in China 

late last month 

where the team 

finished fourth. 

The result

Caitlin 

Sadler 

for the under-21 World Championships 

in Taiwan next July. 

Caitlin said she fell in love 

with the sport when looking for 

a summer sport after her netball 

had finished. 

“Whenever I look back at 

what I’ve achieved, it’s quite 

something,’’ she said. 

“Sometimes I think I’ve 

achieved all I can and then I 

discover that I have more to 

offer.” 

She said to make the team was 

above all her expectations. 

“When I first started playing, I 

did so just because it was fun and 

I enjoyed it but the more I played 

it, the more I understood my role 

and how to play it and now I just 

want to go as far as I can.”

MULTI-SKILLED: 

New Brighton lock 

Boris van Bruchem 

will represent 

New Zealand at 

the World Korfball 

Championships in 

August. 

PRIZE: HVS sales and finance manager Richard Gardyne with 

the electric vehicle which will be given away at the Star Media 

Home and Living Show at the end of the month. 

Lock sets sights on world 

champs of a different kind 

• By Gordon Findlater 

NEW BRIGHTON lock Boris 

van Bruchem is preparing to 

represent New Zealand at a 

world championships – but not 

in rugby. 

Van Bruchem, 20, will travel 

to South Africa following New 

Brighton’s final game of the 

metro rugby season as part 

of the New Zealand team to 

compete at the World Korfball 

Championships for the first time. 

The 195cm lock grew up 

around korfball – a ball sport with 

similarities to netball and basketball 

– due to his parents being Dutch. 

His parents through playing 

korfball in the Netherlands, where 

more than 100,000 people take part 

in the sport. 

“I remember watching my 

parents play, then they coached a 

school team we had at Richmond 

School,” said van Bruchem. 

He started playing rugby as an 

eight-year-old for Shirley before 

going on to play first XV rugby at 

Shirley Boys’ High School. 

“Korfball helps with my handeye 

co-ordination, which helps 

with catching and distributing 

the ball at lineouts, but they are 

quite different sports, which is 

why I enjoy them because it’s 

nice being able to do something 

and the next day having a 

different training for a different 

game,” he said. 

He has played for the 

New Zealand under-19 

korfball team at international 

competitions. However, the 

world championships will be his 

first time playing for the New 

Zealand senior side. 

Last year van Bruchem was 

part of the Canterbury rugby 

team which competed at the 

national under-19 tournament. 

Since the end of last season, van 

Bruchem has put on 10kg. Now 

105kg, he hopes the added size 

will help him progress his game 

to the next level. 

“Every off-season is about 

putting on weight to be able to go 

to the next level. It is a bit hard 

because you have to eat a lot,” he 

said. 

Van Bruchem is used to being 

the tallest player on the rugby 

field. 

However, when New Zealand 

come up against the Netherlands 

in pool play at the korfball 

champs, he will be brought back 

to eye level with the world’s best. 

“There’s going to be a lot of 

really good players there, it’s just 

going to be really cool to test 

myself against the best in the 

world,” he said. 

The World Korfball 

Championships will 

take place in Durban from 

August 1-10. 

Chance to win 

an electric car 

A $40,000 electric vehicle is 

one of many prizes up for grabs 

at the Star Media Home and 

Living Show. 

Star Media events manager 

Lisa Lynch said the show at 

Horncastle Arena from June 

28-30, 10am-5pm, promises 

to deliver new and exciting 

innovations, as well as prizes 

galore. 

“We’re thrilled to be giving 

away the car being supplied by 

HVS, a Springfree trampoline 

and a landscape concept plan 

from Creative Intentions,” she 

said. 

“Anyone who books a 

kitchen or bathroom 

renovation with Build Right 

during the weekend will also 

go in the draw to win a $5000 

kitchen or $5000 bathroom 

package.” 

There will be something 

for everyone at the show with 

thousands of ideas under one 

roof, including an Eco Zone, 

outdoor innovation area and a 

range of stalls which cover all 

aspects of home and living. 

“We’ll have eBikes, jetskis, 

home renovations, insurance, 

carpets, furnishings, spa 

pools and everything you can 

imagine,” she said. 

There will also be a range 

of seminars throughout the 

weekend educating attendees 

on everything from purchasing 

electric cars to decorating your 

home. The taste corner is always 

popular for those wanting to 

sample a range of delicious food

REAL ESTATE 

Sunrise to sunset 

7A Ranui Crescent, Diamond Harbour 

Price: $418,000 

2/3 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | Open plan living/dining/kitchen | Listing Number: 9394 

Sitting as centre stage to the water, this is 

a quirky, retro and totally unique property. 

Sitting as centre stage to the water as you can 

get, the views here out to the hills and the 

head of the harbour are unbeatable. 

In a well-established, private garden which 

adjoins the reserve, this is a property which 

begs closer inspection. It’s functional in 

layout, and there is certainly opportunity 

here to add value and create something quite 

remarkable with the interior, which oozes 

potential. 

Two decent sized bedrooms and a 

bathroom downstairs, and on the middle 

level is open-plan living/dining and kitchen 

with more phenomenal views. Ascend the 

spiral staircase to the upper level where 

you will find more space for potentially the 

master bedroom or additional living. 

The house itself is tidy but requires some 

structural work to continue its longevity - 

this is a project best suited to someone with 

construction skills or experience. There is an 

engineer’s report available. 

For a private viewing of this unique 

property in a stunning harbour position, 

please contact Emma Dunningham of

A CRACKDOWN on mobile

However, the public has li tle 

interest in having input into the 

i sue. 

Only eight submi sions were 

received for a potential bylaw 

aimed at regulating commercial 

activities in public places. 

The district council wi l be 

holding a hearing for the Public 

Places Bylaw and Policy on Commercial 

Activities and Events in 

Public Places. 

A hearing i scheduled to be 

held on Thursday. 

The bylaw comes as an increasing 

number of mobile traders 

are s eking to operate in Selwyn, 

especia ly during the summer 

months. 

In the past year, the district 

council has received five inquiries 

about se ting up a mobile busine s

THE PAPANUI-I nes 

Community Board has taken the 

rare step of starting a petition 

to figh the city council over 

funding. 

Signatures are being co lected 

in a bid to get funding for a community 

facility in Shirley. 

It comes after the city council 

removed funding for the centre 

pla ned for Shirley Rd, near the 

intersection with Hi ls Rd. This 

was the site of the former community 

centre, which was badly 

damaged in the February 2, 

20 1, earthquake. 

The removal o funding 

prompted community board 

chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten 

to stand down, citing it as her “die

Ms Jones said the board’s role 

is to represen the community, 

and by gathering signatures from 

residents, it was fulfi ling that 

role. 

“One of the roles of a community 

board is to represent and act 

as advocate for the interests of its

THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave 

Rock Apartments ar expecting the 

Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off 

on a se tlement agr emen this w ek. 

Body corporate chairman Mike 

White said the group had gone 

into mediation with IAG and EQC 

on February 20, and signed off 

on a deal with IAG on February 

2 – coincidenta ly seven years 

to the day after the February 2, 

20 1, earthquake. However, they 

are waiting for EQC to sign the 

agr ement. 

“Given that EQC actua ly drafted 

the agr ement, there’ l be no 

problem with them doing that.” 

The apartment suffered damage 

in the February and June, 20 1, 

earthquakes and were demolished in 

late 2012. In 2016, IAG’s offer of the 

difference betw en indemnity value, 

$10 mi lion, and the sum insured, 

$16 mi lion, was rejected by the body 

corporate. 

The mediation agr ement 

prevented Mr White from disclosing 

the se tlement amount, but he said it 

involved the two parties paying “a bit 

more money than they’d wanted to 

earlier.”

I’ve been listening to the 

concerns of people living 

in eastern Christchurch for 

many years now. 

This has motivated me to run as 

an independent councillor for the 

Burwood Ward – the time is right 

for me to put my hand up to make 

a difference. 

Phil with this three 

children who all attended 

Windsor School which is 

now Waitakiri School. 

IT’S TIME FOR 

CHANGE IN THE 

BURWOOD WARD 

Hello, my name is Phil Mauger and I am running as 

an independent candidate for the Burwood Ward 

in the Council elections this October. My family has 

lived and worked in Christchurch’s eastern suburbs 

since 1945 and I have been working on projects 

here for more than 40 years. 

I now want to put my business experience and 

energy into our city’s future and the future of our 

children and grandchildren.



PEGASUS POST 

Phil, with his daughter, sons and dad Warner, at the 

subdivision Warner established at Waimari Beach. 

Phil and his dog Honey out delivering 

letters in the Burwood Ward. 

I WANT TO 

REIGN IN 

SPENDING 

AND STOP 

BUDGET 

BLOW OUTS 

Phil leads Maugers Contracting, 

a third generation family 

business specialising in 

building subdivisions, roads, 

sewers, drains, and water 

mains. For more than 70 

years the Maugers have built 

subdivisions, roads and homes 

for people living in and around 

Burwood. Phil’s dad Warner still 

lives in the Burwood Ward.



Many people I speak to are 

disappointed with Council decisions 

affecting Burwood and feel the rebuild 

is taking too long. I think in some 

respects the east has been forgotten. 

Rates increases must be held to 

between 2.5–3.5% per annum, rather 

than the current proposed increase 

of almost 5%. I strongly believe this is 

achievable. We can’t keep expecting 

ratepayers to pay for costly budget 

overruns. This is unsustainable. We 

must find other innovative ways to 

fund our costs. 

The people in the Burwood Ward will 

benefit from a councillor who knows 

all about building roads, footpaths 

and the basic infrastructure a vibrant 

suburb needs. We also need to invest 

in good public transport options for 

the east. 

Honey and her friend Izzy are two 

of Phil’s biggest supporters.



PEGASUS POST 

I CARE ABOUT THE STATE OF OUR ROADS 

Every day on their way to work people in the east are 

bumping over damaged roads and passing patched up 

or fenced off buildings and demolition sites. 

I CARE ABOUT PROGRESS 

We still have a lot of the earthquake rebuild ahead of us 

– we are not in business-as-usual mode. 

We need to stop just talking about problems and start 

fixing them. We have to ensure that the remaining rebuild 

is affordable for ratepayers and stop unnecessary rate 

rises. Hard decisions will need to be made. 

I CARE ABOUT EASTERN CHRISTCHURCH 

I will bring common sense and practical knowledge to the 

council table. I don’t like wasting time and money, and 

will bring that attitude to the council table. It is ratepayers’ 

money we are talking about. 

I WANT TO USE MY PRACTICAL 

EXPERIENCE AND ENERGY TO 

MAKE SURE BURWOOD PEOPLE ARE 

REPRESENTED AT THE COUNCIL TABLE 

BY SOMEONE WHO HAS A STRONG 

INDEPENDENT VOICE AND DOESN’T 

HAVE TO FOLLOW PARTY LINES. 

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME
