Redcliffs 

liquor store 

gets the 

green light 

• By Jess Gibson 

A LIQUOR store planned for 

Redcliffs Village has got the 

go-ahead. 

The district licensing 

committee released its decision 

on Monday, which gives Rizak 

Enterprises Ltd the green light to 

set up an off-licence at 1/87 Main 

Rd. 

The committee’s decision 

includes changes to Rizak 

Enterprises Ltd sole director 

and shareholder Juraj Singh’s 

application based on submissions 

in opposition to the proposal. 

The changes included labelling 

the store Redcliffs Fine Wine and 

Spirits instead of Thirsty Liquor, 

CCTV security inside 

and outside the store and no 

alcohol advertising outside the 

building. 

Its opening hours will also be 

reduced from 9am-10pm to 9am- 

9pm, Monday to Sunday. 

A hearing was held in May 

after 46 written submissions 

were made in opposition to the 

off-licence, with nine people 

making verbal submissions. 

A petition containing the 

names of 97 people opposing the 

store was also presented at the 

hearing.

Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi 

get in touch 

from the editor’s desk 

IT’S BEEN a long drawn-out saga but the 

liquor store planned for Redcliffs will go 

ahead (see page 1). 

That’s pending any appeal those who were 

against it might decide to lodge. 

It’s not overly surprising the liquor store got the green light 

from the district licensing committee. 

There was vocal opposition to the liquor store and those people 

carried that through to the hearing by making submissions. 

The company behind the liquor store said it would not be your 

normal suburban bottle shop. 

So the licensing committee has held it to that pledge by 

restricting signage. There won’t be flashy colourful signs 

advertising all sorts of products, which should keep the look of 

the store in line with the rest of the village.

Swastika joke turns sour 

Comedian 

pushed after 

punchline 

• By Louis Day 

A COMEDIAN was grabbed 

by the back of the head and 

pushed after he made a joke 

about white supremacists during 

a show. 

During Simon Kingsley- 

Holmes’ set at the Madeira Hotel 

in Akaroa he made a joke about 

playing scrabble with a white 

supremacist. 

Kingsley-Holmes then pulled a 

scrabble board from his bag with 

the tiles arranged in the shape 

of a swastika and delivered the 

punchline: “What a prick, he 

glued all the tiles to the board.” 

He also made reference to 

finding a swastika in a public 

toilet in Timaru. 

The comedian has steered clear 

of swastika-related jokes since 

the March 15 mosque shootings. 

But when he did his set on June 

15, he thought enough 

time had passed to reintroduce 

white supremacist-related 

material into his act.

SPEED LIMITS 

THe public has until Monday 

to have a say on speed limits 

in Sumner. The city council is 

proposing to change the speed 

limit in Sumner Village from 

50km/h to 30km/h and slow 

traffic on residential roads to 

40km/h. After the consultation 

closes the Linwood-Central- 

Heathcote Community Board 

will consider the comments 

and make a recommendation 

to the city council. To make a 

submission, visit: https://ccc.govt. 

nz/the-council/consultationsand-submissions/haveyoursay/ 

show/246. Meanwhile, a 60km/h 

speed limit will be introduced 

on Summit Rd and its side 

streets. The 60km/h limit will 

cover Summit Rd, Evans Pass 

Rd, Sumner Rd, Mt Pleasant Rd, 

Broadleaf Lane and Worsleys Rd. 

The reductions were a result of 

safety concerns and anti-social 

behaviour in the area.

Thank you for 

helping your 

Fall Zones 

community 

To all of you who have had your 

trees trimmed before they became 

a problem, thank you for keeping all 

the families in your community warm, 

happy, healthy and connected. 

You can be proud of the fact that you have allowed your 

neighbours to stay warm, cook dinner and even charge 

their mobile phones. You may not have realised that what 

you’ve done has had much impact, but from all of us here 

at Orion, we just want to say thank you. 

Notice and Growth limit zones

Power line voltage A. Growth limit zone B. Notice zone 

66,000 volts 4.0m 5.0m 

33,000 volts 2.5m 3.5m 

11,000 volts 1.6m 2.6m 

400/230 volts 0.5m 1.5m 

We’re not exaggerating. 

On our network, 10-20% of all unplanned power outages are 

caused by trees — including vegetation — coming into contact 

with power lines. Other than this, fire damage to property from 

branches sparking in dry conditions and serious injury from 

electrocution from contact with trees touching power lines are 

also possible consequences of not maintaining your trees. 

How close is too close? 

While most damage is caused by trees falling on power lines, 

significant risk exists from trees merely touching them. This risk 

increases the higher the voltage of the power line. 

The minimum distances that must be maintained between trees 

and power lines, as defined in the Electricity (Hazards from 

Trees) Regulations 2003, are outlined in the diagrams above. 

All vegetation should be kept out of the growth limit zone and 

preferably the notice zone. 

Sometimes it may not be practical to have a tree trimmed at the 

rate at which it grows and unfortunately, this means it may need 

to be removed. Other situations may require trees to be removed, 

most commonly when they are at a high risk of falling due to 

disease or adverse weather events. 

Where do I start? 

Before you begin, remember to keep yourself, and those around 

you, safe. We recognise that not everyone is experienced in tree 

trimming and are happy to advise you on what to do. We can arrange 

for trees near power lines to be trimmed at your expense, however 

we recommend you hire professionals to safely carry out the work. 

If you or someone working for you intends to work within four 

metres of power lines, a close approach consent is required from 

Orion before you start. As a tree owner, you may be liable for any 

damage caused by carrying out trimming or felling of trees. 

Will I be fined if I don’t comply? 

If a cut or trim notice is given to you and you fail to have the tree 

trimmed and/or advise us of the time and location of the trim 

without a reasonable excuse, this is an offence. This will make you 

liable for a fine not exceeding $10,000. If the offence continues, 

you will be liable for a further fine of not more than $500 for every 

day or part day during which the offence continues. 

More info can be found on our website and if 

you have any questions or notice any trees 

touching power lines in your area, please call 

us on 03 363 9898 or 0800 363 9898.

Boy racers cause carnage 

across peninsula during tribute drive 


A CONVOY of more than 200 

boy racers caused damage across 

Banks Peninsula in a drive 

which paid tribute to a man who 

recently died. 

Vehicles 

gathered in 

the car park of 

Mitre 10 MEGA 

Ferrymead 

and travelled 

to Akaroa, 

stopping at 

Graham 

Barrell 

points along 

the way to do 

burnouts. 

Police received about 20 reports 

of the convoy. 

A police spokesperson said the 

first report was in Ferrymead 

about 9.45pm, and the last was 

in Teddington about 12.30am on 

Saturday morning. 

“Police attended and spoke 

with some of those involved but 

no arrests were made.” 

Community parks manager Al 

Hardy said the city council noticed 

an increase in parks-related 

damage over that weekend. 

“Between Saturday, June 22, 

and Tuesday, June 25,we received 

three calls to notify us of damage 

to Ferrymead and Barnett Parks, 

as well as Allandale Reserve.

CONVOY: A video posted on an event page showed a large 

number of vehicles outside Mitre 10 MEGA Ferrymead ready

Damage included tyre marks on 

the field, and bollards and cables 

pulled out of the ground,” Mr 

Hardy said. 

“Council will work to repair 

the damage to the parks as soon 

as possible.” 

Residents took to Facebook to 

share photos of the damage in 

Governors Bay. 

At Allandale Reserve the grass 

had been ripped up by spinning

the Gebbies Garden Cafe on 

Christchurch Akaroa Rd. 

Allandale Reserve 

Management Committee acting 

chairman Graham Barrell 

was “disappointed with the 

vandalism.” 

“I drove past and saw that 

the post which held the chain 

to keep vehicles out had been 

smashed over and the ground 

was covered in tyre tracks,” Mr 

Barrell said. 

Banks Peninsula Community 

Board deputy chairman Tyrone 

Fields was told about a “huge 

amount of litter” at Teddington 

the following morning. 

Mr Fields said boy racing is 

an “acknowledged problem” 

across Banks Peninsula and 

damage caused by vehicles, 

such as burnouts, are “not 

uncommon.” 

On an event page for those 

taking part in the convoy, 

a comment about damaged 

road signs called it “disgusting 

behaviour” and said the night 

was not meant to be about 

acting stupidly.

THE NEXT step in the delivery of 

the Sumner Village Master Plan is 

under way. 

Contractors are pouring new 

kerbs and gutters on parts of Burgess 

St, sealing Burgess St, preparing 

to pave the south side of Marriner 

St and finishing off installing 

the water main and stormwater 

pipes along Wakefield Ave. 

Marriner St east will open and 

close intermittently but contractors 

will try and keep it open to traffic as 

much as possible. 

A one-way system will start today 

to enable the final road reconstruction 

work between the Hollywood 

Theatre and the skate ramp. 

This means traffic heading to the 

city from Sumner will be detoured 

through Nayland St west and the 

city-bound bus stop will shift back 

to Nayland St. 

Contractors will finish installing 

the new stormwater and water 

pipes through the Nayland St/ 

Wakefield Avenue intersection during 

the day, starting this week. 

Vehicles are advised to slow down 

and follow signage and instructions 

from workers on site.

Peter Buttigieg - Shortest Way 

Home One Mayor’s Challenge and a Model 

for America’s Future. By Peter Buttigieg 

Once described by The Washington Post as “the most interesting 

mayor you’ve never heard of”, Pete Buttigieg, the thirty-six-year-old 

Democratic mayor of South Bend, Indiana, has improbably emerged 

as one of the US’s most visionary politicians. First elected in 2011, 

Buttigieg left a successful business career to move back to his 

hometown, previously tagged by Newsweek as a “dying city”, because 

the industrial Midwest beckoned as a challenge to the McKinseytrained 

Harvard graduate. Whether meeting with city residents on 

middle-school basketball courts, reclaiming abandoned houses, 

confronting gun violence, or attracting high-tech industry, Buttigieg has 

transformed South Bend into a shining model of urban reinvention. 

Shortest Way Home interweaves two once-unthinkable success 

stories: that of an Afghanistan veteran who came out and found love 

and acceptance, all while in office, and that of a Rust Belt city so 

thoroughly transformed that it shatters the way we view America’s 

so-called flyover country. 

Queens of the Kingdom 

The Women of Saudi Arabia Speak. 

By Nicola Sutcliff 

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is one of the most mysterious and secretive 

societies in modern times and the lives of the women living there is 

perhaps the most intriguing aspect of all. What do the women of Saudi 

Arabia really think about their lives? What are their hopes and dreams? 

To separate fact from fiction, Nicola Sutcliff spent four years living in the 

Kingdom, meeting and interviewing women of all ages and from all walks 

of life. Their stories are presented here and paint a portrait of a country that 

appears to be on the cusp of change. 

In this collection of essays, the women talk candidly about their lives 

and their hopes for the future. Meet Hafsa, a Bedouin who gave birth to 

eleven children in the open desert; Jamila, the first wife in a polygamous 

household; Jamila, a medical student who married a stranger in order to 

pursue her education. Meet these and many other women and learn what 

they think about subjects as diverse as education, driving, the religious 

police, male guardianship, social media, women’s rights, love and 

marriage, underground parties, under-the-abaya fashion and sexuality. 

Authentic, eye-opening, inspiring and courageous, they capture the 

essence of what it is like to be a woman living in Saudi Arabia today. 

Dame Vera Lynn – Some Sunny Day 

The remarkable autobiography of the last 

great wartime icon. By Vera Lynn 

Born Vera Welch on 20 March, 1917 in the East End of London, 

Dame Vera Lynn’s career was set from an early age - along with her 

father, who also did a ‘turn’, she sang in Working Men’s Clubs from 

just seven years old. She had a successful radio career with Joe Loss 

and Charlie Kunz in the 1920s and ‘30s, but it was with World War II 

that she became the iconic figure that captured the imagination of the 

national public. Her spirit and verve, along with her ability to connect 

with the men fighting for their country and those left behind praying for 

their loved ones, made her the ‘Forces’ sweetheart’. Her career after 

the war flourished, with hits in the US and the UK, but Vera was never 

able to leave behind her wartime role and was deeply affected by what 

she had seen. Still heavily involved with veteran and other charities, 

this is Dame Vera’s vivid story of her life and her war - from bombs 

and rations to dance halls and the searing heat of her appearances 

abroad. Epitomising British fortitude and hope, Dame Vera gives a vivid 

portrait of Britain at war, and a unique story of one woman who came to 

symbolize a nation. 

Chanel’s Riviera 

Life, Love and the Struggle for Survival on the 

Cote d’Azur, 1930-1944. By Anne de Courcy 

Far from worrying about the onset of war, in the spring of 1938 the 

burning question on the French Riviera was whether one should curtsey 

to the Duchess of Windsor. Few of those who had settled there thought 

much about what was going on in the rest of Europe. It was a golden, 

glamorous life, far removed from politics or conflict. 

Featuring a sparkling cast of artists, writers and historical figures 

including Winston Churchill, Daisy Fellowes, Salvador Dali, the Duke 

and Duchess of Windsor, Eileen Gray and Edith Wharton, with the 

enigmatic Coco Chanel at its heart. A captivating account of a period that 

saw some of the deepest extremes of luxury and terror in the whole of 

the twentieth century. 

From Chanel’s first summer at her Roquebrune villa La Pausa (in the 

later years with her German lover) amid the glamour of the pre-war 

parties and casinos in Antibes, Nice and Cannes to the horrors of 

evacuation and the displacement of thousands of families during the 

Second World War, it explores the fascinating world of the Cote d’Azur 

elite in the 1930s and 1940s.

LYTTELTON RESIDENTS can 

have their say on a proposal to 

develop Naval Point. 

The two options open for public 

feedback focus on site enhancement, 

improved accessibility and 

greater recreational safety – on 

and off the water. 

Option two also proposes that 

the city council acquires a 1.2ha 

block to help reconfigure the 

Naval Point site. 

Head of parks Andrew Rutledge 

said the options have been 

developed following discussions 

with key stakeholders, working 

with Rāpaki Marae and considerable 

site research. 

“We want to further develop 

the water-focused recreational 

space and ensure easy harbour 

access that everyone can enjoy, 

along with improved boating 

safety. We also want to improve 

the existing recreational facilities 

already based in the area,” Mr 

Rutledge said. 

“Naval Point is one of the few 

all-tide water access points for 

Christchurch. 

“Coupled with its rare, flat recreational 

area, it is a major drawcard 

for water sports enthusiasts, 

and we need to carefully weigh 

up development options based on 

an array of community views. 

“Once we have a preferred 

option, we can then carry out 

detailed planning and costings 

for the Naval Point Development 

Plan, which will go out for further 

public consultation in 2020.” 

Under both options, the waterfront 

area will be reorganised to 

improve access and safety. 

Parking areas will be upgraded 

and the present public ramp expanded. 

It is proposed the Naval 

Point Club and the Coastguard 

will share a new facility that more 

fully meets the needs of both 

organisations. 

Space will also be set aside for 

the possible future development 

of a multi-sport court area at the

Sumner Redcliffs

one of the people

submission. 

“I am pleased that

Pupils plant 750 natives 

at Sumnervale Reserve 


SUMNER SCHOOL pupils helped plant 

750 native grasses, shrubs and trees in 

Sumnervale Reserve on June 22. 

With help from the city council’s rangers, 

about 220 pupils in years 5 to 8 were 

involved in the first phase of a three-year 

project which will eventually include the 

whole school. 

The project was set up by the city council, 

Sumner School, Sumner Environment 

Group and the Sumner Valley Riding 

School. It will eventually improve water 

quality in the stream and increase habitat 

in the valley. 


MAORI New Year was celebrated at Busy 

C’s Preschool in Lyttelton with an evening 

filled with songs, stories and food. 

The Matariki event is a highlight on the 

pre-school’s calendar each year, with children 

and their families dressing up for the 

evening in pyjamas and dressing-gowns. 

This year the kids performed a play to tell 

a story about children who plant trees to 

provide food for native birds. 

It was written by one of the teachers, 

Frances Sommer, and tied in with Busy C’s 

Enviroschool curriculum. 

It aims to familiarise and encourage empathy 

with the native species in the area. 

“Tamariki have loved researching our 

local native flora and fauna, and creating 

the props and costumes for this play. They 

are very keen to perform for their whanau 

and friends,” said service provider Caro 

Davidson.

Deputy principal Rebecca Power said 

the day was an opportunity for pupils to 

be connected and involved over a period 

of time in their local community and 

environment. 

“The pupils all know the Sumnervale 

Reserve and can relate to this local environmental 

opportunity to do something 

in their own backyard. The planting day 

was exciting for them as they could immediately 

see they had helped to make a 

difference.” 

Some pupils gave their plants pet names

Australian 

band 

Icehouse 

will headline 

Selwyn 

Sounds 

at Lincoln 

Domain 

in March.

TONY MOTT 

LINE-UP: 

Iain, Graham, 

Keith, Rick 

and Paul from 

10cc will also 

perform. 

Selwyn Sounds ‘strongest line-up yet’ 

THE LINE-UP for the next 

Selwyn Sounds rock festival is 

being touted as the best ever. 

Iconic Australian band 

Icehouse will headline the 

Lincoln Domain event on March 

7. Tickets go on sale at midnight 

on Thursday at 

www.selwynsounds.co.nz. 

Said promoter David Parlane: 

“This will be the fourth year 

of Selwyn Sounds and this is 

the best and strongest lineup 

yet with three incredible 

international acts.” 

“Icehouse hasn’t played in 

Christchurch since 1991, so very 

proud to bring them to Lincoln 

to play at Selwyn Sounds.” 

The line-up will also feature 

international acts 10cc, Midge 

Ure, who is the voice of Ultravox, 

and Kiwi bands Zed, The 

Mockers, Automatic 80s and Jed 

Parsons. 

Icehouse was formed by Iva 

Davies, the band’s frontman and 

musical creative force, who led 

the band to 28 platinum albums, 

eight top 10 albums and more 

than 30 top 40 singles, including 

Great Southern Land, Hey Little 

Girl, Crazy, Electric Blue, and We 

Can Get Together. 

“The band has been playing 

together for more than 40 years, 

selling out shows around the 

world, including their last New 

Zealand tour, selling out three 

shows in record times to 45,000 

people and rave reviews,” said Mr 

Parlane. 

“Midge Ure continues to tour 

and play all around the world. 

Many will remember Ultravox 

from their exhilarating show at 

Sweetwaters in the 80s. Their hit 

album Vienna was in the NZ top 

40 for over 47 weeks. 10cc has 

sold out many concerts in New 

Zealand in the past, with such hits 

as Dreadlock Holiday, The Things 

We Do For Love, I’m Not In Love, 

Art For Art’s Sake, Rubber Bullets, 

I’m Mandy Fly Me and Donna. 

Getting the band Zed, which 

will reunite after 15 years, 

was a coup, he said. “They are 

a real rock and roll story of 

Christchurch school mates,” said 

Mr Parlane. 

The school mates formed a 

band and went on to have four 

top 10 hits. 

Zed’s hits include Renegade 

Fighter and Glorafilia. The group 

recorded two albums, toured the 

world, and then broke up. Zed 

is back together to celebrate the 

20-year anniversary of its debut 

album Silencer. 

Selwyn Sounds will again 

benefit the local community, said 

Mr Parlane. 

“We have great support 

from the Lincoln community. 

Lincoln High will once again be 

providing parking and all money 

raised will go back to the school. 

Our volunteer base comes from 

numerous community groups in 

the Selwyn region and its great 

to support them through Selwyn 

Sounds.”

Lyttelton takes a beating on Facebook 

Lyttelton has received 

a scathing yet satirical 

review on the Sh** Towns 

of New Zealand Facebook 

page. The post, calling the 

suburb a “grubby little 

sh**-tip” and a “Lyttel 

bit sh**, has received a 

mixed response from the 

community. Reporter 

Jess Gibson gets reaction 

from people in Lyttelton 

Malcolm Carne disapproved 

of what the post said about his 

home of 20 years. 

“Whoever wrote it is a nasty 

idiot and 

obviously 

deluded 

because it’s a 

great place to 

live. What can 

I say without 

using swear 

words . . . 

Malcolm 

Carne 

they’re a total 

twit,” Mr Carne 

said. 

“They obviously haven’t 

spent any time here or at least 

not more than 5min. It’s total 

bullsh** and I’ve never heard 

such cr** in my life.” 

Caro 

Allison had 

a different 

outlook on the 

post after living 

in Lyttelton for 

24 years. 

“I think it’s 

really clever 

Caro Allison 

and very, very 

funny. It’s 

fantastic and absolutely true,” 

she said. 

“Geographically and mentally, 

we are kind of stuck here in a 

way. Even though we’ve got the 

ocean, the port and the harbour 

out there, we are in our own 

gorgeous bubble and if we can’t 

laugh, it gets very sad.” 

Caine Tauwhine, who has 

lived in Rapaki for 15 years, said 

the statements “might have been 

the case in the 80s but not now.”

JOKING: In spite of its bustling cafe scene, Lyttelton received 

an unflattering satirical write-up on a popular Facebook page. 

Caine 

Tauwhine 

He said the 

post was “too 

harsh.” 

“Lyttelton 

is full of all 

sorts – we get 

the freaks, 

the geeks and 

everything in 

between, but 

the thing about 

all those types is that they love 

the place,” Mr Tauwhine said. 

Guy Higginson, who grew 

up in Lyttelton, also said the post 

was harsh. 

“I would say it’s probably 

one of the best places to grow 

up in. People 

that don’t live 

there have got 

no idea,” Mr 

Higginson said. 

He did not 

agree with the 

town being 

labelled “a 

Guy 

Higginson 

Lyttel bit sh**”. 

“Lyttelton is 

Lyttelton, you 

can give it a 

name, but it’s a bit tongue-incheek 

really. I guess it’s a play on 

words.” 

Denise Alty commutes to 

Lyttelton through the tunnel 

every day for work. She was 

appalled by the post, calling 

it “utterly 

irrelevant and 

ridiculous.” 

“People come 

here to enjoy 

the ambience, 

the feel and 

the vibe. It’s 

an incredibly 

Denise Alty supportive 

and closeknit 

community. I work here 

and grew up over the hill, so 

Lyttelton is definitely a big part 

of my life,” she said. 

“I love Lyttelton, as do most 

other Cantabrians. It’s a place 

of character, artistry and peace. 

This is disgusting.” 

Lyttelton mother Emma 

Dunningham took no offence 

to the post, calling it funny, well 

written and 

witty. 

“I certainly 

don’t see 

anything to be 

offended about. 

I think it’s all 

pretty spot-on 

Emma 

Dunningham 

and the things 

that they are 

bringing up as 

a negative are 

things that some of us can see as 

a positive.”

to describe the post in one word,

SH** TOWNS of New Zealand 

is a Facebook page which 

reviews places across the 

country. 

It aims to tell people “all the 

best places not to go on a New 

Zealand holiday.” 

Its profile of Lyttelton last 

week received more than 1000 

comments and 250 shares. 

The post read: “Lyttelton 

(dyslexic for ‘Little Town’) is 

a notorious haunt of sailors, 

dockers, Cantabrians and other 

unsavoury types. The grubby 

little s***-tip is a port town, 

which means it exists primarily 

for shipping out coal to overseas 

global warming factories and 

shipping in heroin.” 

The post had a crack at 

Lyttelton’s history and implied 

the port town is stuck in its old 

ways. 

“Lyttelton’s favourite feature 

is its timeball station, which 

he called it 

“laughable.” 

“It’s water off 

a duck’s back,” 

he said. 

“I mean, they 

are good at 

creative writing 

but that’s about 

Evan Kiddy it. It’s harsh, 

but it’s just one 

person’s view and that’s the sh** 

thing about Facebook – people 

can post whatever they like.” 

Jason Lockhorst thought 

there was some truth in the 

post but the comments are not 

limited to Lyttelton. 

“Everything they talked 

about has likely happened at 

We will deliver! 

was reconstructed after the 2011 

earthquake, despite timeballs 

becoming obsolete about a 

century ago. The timeball is well 

worth seeing for anyone who’s 

never heard of a clock,” it read. 

It also criticised the Lyttelton 

Rd tunnel, which was once the 

longest in New Zealand until 

Auckland’s Waterview Tunnel 

opened in 2017. ‘ 

“The opening of the Lyttelton 

Tunnel allowed road traffic from 

Christchurch to reach the town 

in record time, which became 

known as ‘the speed of disappointment’,” 

read the post. 

The post listed an unusual 

range of activities to do in Lyttelton, 

including “joining a folk 

band . . . or getting in a knife 

fight with a Russian fisherman.” 

The page targeted Rolleston 

in November and gained a 

similar mixed response from 

residents. 

some point in 

time, but it’s 

also probably 

happened in 

every city in 

New Zealand 

as well.” 

“It was satire 

and was a 

hook, line and 

sinker for a 

lot of people. 

Whoever wrote it was looking 

for a laugh and they got laughs. 

But of course, it ruffled a few 

feathers,” Mr Lockhorst said.

Saturday. 

Now that I’ve got you thinking 

of delicious food and eating, let’s 

take this lowbrow and talk about 

bodily functions. Just what you 

wanted right? I’ve always counted 

myself lucky to have avoided the 

real nastiness of parenting babies 

and toddlers so far. While my 

mates have had all sorts of dramas, 

I’ve missed (or dodged) the worst 

of it. 

I still count myself as lucky in 

that regard (thankfully), but I got 

my first taste of an ‘oh-hell-no’ 

toiletry nightmare this week. 

After coming home from an 

activity last week a whiff of bad 

cabbage cologne told me it was 

change time. Luckily, it was all 

contained and wasn’t so bad in the 

big scheme of things. 

I congratulated myself on 

another job well done. 

She’d wet her pants a little 

through the nappy and the house 

was warm so I left her just in her 

top and nappy for a bit while I 

had some lunch in the kitchen 

(out of the wee seagull’s view). 

The true horror began soon 

after. Leaving the kitchen, 

RELAXED: Vittoria and I had 

an afternoon in the park to 

move on from the trauma of a 

nightmare code brown. 

I looked into the hall and 

immediately asked the question: 

“Is that a wee jobbie?” 

It was. Right there on the floor. 

But not just there. 

Suffice to say, if it gets on a 

shoe that’s about 30cm off 

the floor on a rack, you’ve got 

problems mate. Lord have mercy. 

Round two was too much for her 

nappy to handle. 

So I rolled up my sleeves (way 

up) and got stuck in, battling 

through a tantrum, an awful 

smell and kicking legs to clean up 

the offending nightmare and get 

Vittoria through a quick shower. 

After that we both deserved a 

fun afternoon in the park – as far 

away from thoughts of a digested 

meal as possible.

Now 

Lions raise $260k for health hub 

AKAROA’S NEW health centre 

has received a $260,000 funding 

boost. 

The Akaroa and Bays Lions 

Club presented a cheque to the 

Akaroa Health Trust last week. 

The club spent five years 

fundraising the amount within 

the community and received 

a $153,000 contribution from 

Lions International. 

The donation pushed the 

trust’s funding to more than 

$1.7 million. With the new 

targeted city council rate to 

collect $1.3 million, the initial $3 

million goal has been met. The 

centre will cost $5.9 million. 

Said former Akaroa and 

Bays Lions Club president 

Tony Walls: “We need our 

communities. These people have 

repeatedly put their hands into 

their pockets over the last five 

years. They turned the vision of 

an integrated health hub into a 

reality.” 

Mr Walls said the work 

undertaken by Lions in Akaroa 

has been subtle but significant. 

The project raised $107,000 

from fundraisers like Paddy’s 

markets, street raffles, the Lions 

golf tournaments and donations 

from cruise ship passengers 

visiting Akaroa.” 

While raising the money, 

Lions members continued 

to support people, clubs and 

causes. 

At the presentation, Mr Walls 

paid tribute to Paul de Latour, 

who worked hard to support the 

fundraising appeal over many 

years. 

Upper South Island Lions 

Clubs former district governor 

Philip Lynch spoke about the 

contributions from Lions Clubs

governor Philip Lynch hand over $260,000 to Akaroa Health 

Trust chairman Gordon Boxall (right). 

International and the Lions 

Clubs International Foundation. 

The two groups donated 

a combined $1.5 million to 

Christchurch following the 

quakes. Mr Lynch was the 

Lions Earthquake Committee 

chairman in Canterbury. The 

group distributed the funds 

which were used to re-establish 

a number of community 

activities. 

Akaroa Health Trust 

chairman Gordon Boxall said 

the community was “incredibly 

grateful to have a strong and 

spirited Lions club.” 

“This is a very significant 

contribution towards our new 

integrated health facility.” 

“When Lions are involved, 

problems get smaller, and 

communities get better.” 

As the $3 million goal has 

been met, further community 

fundraising will reduce the 

amount which would otherwise 

be raised through rates.

Sumner must win final round-robin matches 

• By Gordon Findlater 

A 17-25 loss to Burnside means 

Sumner will need to win their 

final two round-robin matches 

to guarantee a spot in the plate 

semi-finals of the premier metro 

competition. 

In their final home game of 

the round-robin on Saturday, 

Sumner stumbled out of the 

blocks and found themselves 

down to 14 men just 3min 

into the match after lock 

Max Kennedy was binned for 

repeated infringements. 

Burnside were able to make 

the most of the man advantage 

and quickly jumped out to a 0-17 

lead. 

“As a group we just didn’t play 

well. Mentally, we weren’t exactly 

on song and we gave Burnside a 

bit of a running head start before 

we decided to get our heads in 

the game,” said Sumner coach 

Martin Dodgson. 

Sumner were able to get 

themselves well and truly back 

in the game through a penalty 

try from a collapsed scrum, a try 

to English halfback James Elliot 

and the boot of Willy Sakura 

providing two conversions and 

penalty. 

With 10min to play Sumner 

found themselves in with a 

SUMNER RUNNING club 

members Lisa Brignull and 

Shaun McWhirter both recorded 

impressive results at the Wellington 

Marathon on Sunday. 

Brignull competed in the full 

marathon, finishing second overall 

amongst the women’s field and 

first in her age bracket. Meanwhile, 

McWhirter took on the half marathon 

and finished 25th overall. 

A time of 3hr 5min 52sec was a 

new personal best on the Wellington 

course for Brignall. She finished 

just over three minutes behind the 

women’s marathon winner Sonya 

Cameron from Dunedin. Brignall 

also won the women’s 40-49 age 

group by more than 12min. 

McWhirter’s time of 1hr 19min 

58sec saw him finish 23rd in the 

men’s half marathon. He also 

finished seventh in the men’s 30-39 

age group.

chance of stealing a win. They 

trailed 17-20 and had a 5m 

scrum from the Burnside line.

Impressive marathon results 

HAUL: Lisa Brignull claimed a silver and 

gold medal at the Wellington marathon 

on Sunday. 

Burnside won a scrum penalty 

before going down the other end 

and scoring a try to wrap-up the 

match. 

Dodgson said to play badly 

until that point was a bit of a 

shock.

work themselves back into the 

game Dodgson says the major 

concern from the game was their 

lack of physical presence. 

“We shouldn’t be getting 

physically dominated by a 

Burnside pack. Not after we 

dominated the likes of Lincoln 

and High School Old Boys . . . 

because of that we couldn’t really 

stick to our game plan,” said 

Dodgson. 

He says Sumner have now 

made it difficult for themselves 

to finish in the top two of the 

bottom six – which will grant 

them a plate semi-final. However, 

the side still have fate in their 

own hands. 

While the result may not 

have gone their way the 

Sumner faithful were kept in 

good spirits with outrageously 

cheap $5 jugs of Tui beer at 

the clubrooms to celebrate the 

premier side’s last home game of 

the season. 

This Saturday Sumner take on 

Linwood at Linfield Park. The 

game kicks off at 2.45pm.

TĀTOU KO MERE E WHAKAPONO ANA 

MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD 

Thank you to everyone who contributed ideas and feedback as part of our first phase 

of consultation as we plan for our new school. 

As well as the online survey, feedback was gathered from Post-It Stations at various 

school events and from student House Groups and workshops. 

A Community Consultation Report is now with the design team to assist in developing 

the preliminary concept design for the new school. 

The key findings in the report shows our community would like a new school which: 

► Reflects Marian’s Roman Catholic Special Character, values, story and history 

► Is inclusive and supportive. For example, reflects and celebrates Māori, Asian and 

Pasifika cultures 

► Fosters Marian’s family environment and supports small class sizes 

► Has designated and comfortable spaces to pray, eat, prepare, teach, learn and be 

together 

► Is eco-friendly and sustainable 

► Has full-sized, modern facilities designed to be functional and welcoming 

► Has plenty of green, leafy space. 

The full report is available on the Marian College website. 

SERVICE IN THE COMMUNITY 

This term, Marian students have filled paper bags with more than 200 

non-perishable food items for Christchurch families in need. 

During the July school holidays, Marian students will be working in the 

Stanmore Road St Vincent de Paul shop. Please call in with your preloved 

gently used clothing and household items and say hi. 

Marian College has a long tradition of service. Both students and staff 

members are actively involved and contribute positively to the wider 

community. All students complete at least six hours of meaningful 

service within the school and community, every year.

WORKSAFE NEW Zealand 

has b en a proached in a bid to 

fina ly repair the potholes in New 

Brighton’s Hawke St car park. 

Coastal-Burw od Ward city 

counci lor David East wants 

WorkSafe to pre sure the car 

park’s private owners into 

repairing the potholes which are 

a “trip and vehicle” hazard. 

WorkSafe chief inspector 

a se sment southern Da ren 

Handforth said it may be able to 

take action under the Health and 

Safety at Work Act 2015, “as a 

person conducting a busine s or 

undertaking.” 

Mr Handforth said WorkSafe 

is aware of the concerns raised by 

Cr East abou the car park. 

“WorkSafe has completed 

an a se sment visi to the site 

and is engaging with the owner 

to advise them that it is their 

responsibility to manage their 

risks a propriately.” 

Different parts of the car park 

are owned by various people 

and the Coastal-Burw od 

Community Board recently 

wrote to them about its concerns 

around health and safety. 

Cr East said the bi gest i sue 

in the past has b en ge ting in 

touch with the landlords and 

owners and ge ting them to 

agr e to anything. “The board 

a preciates that multi-ownership 

of the parking space may present 

a difficulty in co-ordinating 

repair/resurfacing but felt obliged 

to pa s these concerns onto you,” 

said the le ter. 

One reply has b en received so 

far from an owner who is wi ling 

to discu s the i sue. However, a l 

the owners would have to agr e 

to undertake work. 

Cr East said there had b en 

a “number of incidences” in 

the car park of people injuring 

themselves which had gone 

unreported. 

“I’ve always though that it 

has b en quite amazing that we 

haven’t had any serious a cidents 

or senior citizens perhaps 

tri ping in those potholes and 

doing themselve some damage.” 

He is confiden the new 

a proach wi l bring results. 

“I think the WorkSafe 

involvement may prove to be the 

lever that we are l oking for.”

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 

in the ditch” project. 

Ms Jone 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 

community and this is what we 

are doing. The LTP and a nual 

plans are a l about lo bying the 

council.”

Cave Rock 

Apartments’ 

owners 

expect EQC 

sign-off 

this week 

• By Sarla Donovan 

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.”

international competition. 

New World Fe ry Rd butcher 

Jeremy Garth and his team, the 

Pure South Sharp Blacks, recently 

came second a the World 

Butchers’ Cha lenge in Northern 

Ireland. 

It was the firs time Mr Garth 

had competed in the cha lenge 

and he was “rea ly proud” of 

how the team performed. 

“We produced some top quality 

products and came away 

with a g od result so we’re very 

ha py,” he said. 

The preparation for this year’s 

World Butchers’ Cha lenge was 

intense as the team members 

met in Auckland every two 

months for lengthy w ekend 

practices. 

Mr Garth, who has b en a 

butcher for 14 years, said the 

competition brought back his 

pa sion for the job. 

“Doing a l thi stuff and 

m eting new people, s eing new 

ideas, it just brings that flair 

back for you,” he said. 

Mr Garth hopes to own a 

butcher shop of his own someday 

but says for now he wi l focus 

on ge ting mor experience 

and on the 2020 cha lenge. 

“In two years’ time, we’ l be 

going back to try and win the 

title,” he said.

The district council wi l be

A hearing i scheduled to be

The bylaw comes as an increasing

In the past year, the district 

council has received five inquiries 

about se ting up a mobile busine s

Pupils learn about role of war horses

s eing first hand what men and

The New Zealand Mounted 

Rifles Charitable Trust president 

Mark A pleton and member 

Mike Donaldson t ok their 

horses to the sch ol on Monday, 

in a bid to educate pupils on the 

sacrifice their ancestors made in 

World War 1 and World War 2. 

Mr A pleton and Mr Donaldson 

a rived a the sch ol dre sed 

in World War 1 uniforms while 

their horses Tommy and Kruze 

wore 1 0-year-old sa dles donated 

to the trust. 

The presentation is a prelude 

to the Gr endale Recreation Reserve 

Management Commi t e’s 

upcoming Anzac Day service. 

As a tribute to those who 

served, members of the trust wi l 

ride horseback to the service. 

Mr A pleton said it was 

important children were 

educated on what soldiers 

wen through during World 

War 1 and World War 2. 

But he said the presentation 

didn’t go into t o much detail 

and was more of a “show and

the soldiers l oked like. 

Children were shown the type 

of kits horses were required to 

wear in the war.

AN U PER Ri carton butcher 

has proven himself to be a cut 

above his Au sie rivals at an 

international competition. 

Elite Meats owner Corey 

Winder was named in the a l 

star team a the World Butchers’ 

Cha lenge in Northern Ireland. 

Mr Winder and his team, the 

Pure South Sharp Blacks, which 

includes W olston butcher 

Jeremy Garth, finished second 

in the competition. 

He said the cha lenge started 

as a “transtasman test match” 

seven years ago. 

The preparation for this 

year’s World Butchers’ Challenge 

was intense as the team 

members met in Auckland 

every two months for lengthy 

w ekend practices. Mr Winder 

said coming second against 1 

other countries was a “fantastic” 

result. 

“To get second behind Ireland 

was a huge achievement and to 

be ahead of Australia is an 

even bi ger thing for us,” he 

said. 

But Mr Winder admires the 

Australian team. 

“Those guys over there 

[Australia] are on top of their 

game, they do a g od job,” he 

said. 

“And it just showcases that 

New Zealand has got some 

of the best butchers in the 

world,” he said. 

Mr Winder has b en a butcher 

since the age of 19.

THE HALSWE L-Hornby-

Board chairman Mike Mora 

told Western News the submi sion 

would likely o pose Fulton Hogan’s 

plan. 

“You can just about guarant e 

it . because we [the community 

board] don’t believe qua ries

areas,” he said. 

Mr Mora said he wasn’t sure if 

the city council would endorse the 

board’ submi sion. 

“I’d like to think so because the 

city council has had their eyes 

open as we l ove recent years over 

the crysta line silica risk,” he said. 

Mr Mora said the community 

board wi l be “representing and
