celebrate the official opening of the new site on Travis Rd. Although classes started in May, it was an opportunity to recognise<br />

Avondale<br />

boy racers<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

AVONDALE residents want<br />

speed bumps on their streets to<br />

stop boy racers causing carnage.<br />

But city council staff don’t<br />

believe there is a boy racer issue,<br />

even though Burwood Ward city<br />

councillor Glenn Livingstone<br />

says there is.<br />

Cr Livingstone recently<br />

visited Waratah St, Briarmont<br />

St and Orrick<br />

Cres to speak<br />

to concerned<br />

residents. When<br />

he was on<br />

Briarmont St<br />

discussing the<br />

need for speed<br />

bumps with a<br />

resident, he saw<br />

what appeared to<br />

be boy racers speeding past.<br />

Glenn<br />

Livingstone<br />

Said Cr Livingstone: “I’ve seen<br />

the skid marks, too – obviously<br />

from the rubber.”<br />

City council transport<br />

operations manager Steffan<br />

Thomas said it has not received<br />

any complaints about boy<br />

racers in the streets over the<br />

last year and there are no plans<br />

to implement measures to stop<br />

them.<br />

WHEN THERE are tyre burnout marks<br />

on a street, it is generally a good indicator<br />

of boy racer activity.<br />

But Avondale residents are having<br />

trouble trying to convince city council<br />

staff there is a problem (see page 1).<br />

They have a simple solution: Put speed bumps in to slow the<br />

boy racers down which will hopefully see them go elsewhere.<br />

But the solution is getting little traction from the powers that<br />

be. And that is understandably irritating the good people who<br />

live on affected streets and pay their rates. City council staff say<br />

they haven’t received any complaints about boy racers and have<br />

no plans to put speed bumps in. Burwood Ward city councillor<br />

Glenn Livingstone has now joined the battle.<br />

We will keep you posted.<br />

Godwit sculpture finally takes off<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

AN $89,100 sculpture of the<br />

bar-tailed godwits is finally set<br />

to be installed at South New<br />

Brighton.<br />

Because the birds spend<br />

summer in Southshore, the<br />

artwork will<br />

be on show<br />

near the South<br />

New Brighton<br />

bridge. The<br />

project was first<br />

raised by the<br />

South Brighton<br />

Residents’<br />

Association<br />

about three<br />

Bon Suter<br />

years ago.<br />

The sculpture, called The<br />

Godwits, will feature seven<br />

painted, stainless steel birds on<br />

top of tall poles, which will allow<br />

them to rotate in the wind.<br />

The design was approved<br />

by the city council’s social,<br />

community development<br />

and housing committee last<br />

week. The project still needs<br />

final approval from the city<br />

council.<br />

A city council spokesperson<br />

said “the Godwits artwork will<br />

be installed following the report<br />

to the city council on <strong>July</strong> 25.”<br />

The artwork has been offered<br />

as a gift to Christchurch by the<br />

FLYING HIGH: An artist’s impression of the godwit sculpture<br />

to be installed in South New Brighton.<br />

residents’ association, which<br />

commissioned local artist Bon<br />

Suter to design it.<br />

Said residents’ association<br />

secretary Seamus O’Cromtha:<br />

“It’s been a long, long, long<br />

process. We’re very pleased,<br />

obviously. It’s good for general<br />

community well-being.”<br />

It was proposed as a way to<br />

identify South New Brighton as<br />

an area of natural beauty and a<br />

place where the godwits arrive<br />

and leave from each year.<br />

The committee supported<br />

a recommendation in favour<br />

of the sculpture’s permanent<br />

installation and ongoing<br />

maintenance.<br />

Ms Suter is a professional<br />

sculptor and tutor who created<br />

the South New Brighton<br />

Sculpture Park. She has<br />

represented the city council at<br />

the Festival of Arts in Adelaide<br />

and her work is held in public<br />

and private collections around<br />

the world.<br />

While the sculpture will cost<br />

$89,100, $76,000 was raised<br />

by the residents’ association<br />

through community events<br />

and donations. The remaining<br />

amount came from the Coastal-<br />

Burwood Community Board’s<br />

discretionary fund, with Fulton<br />

Hogan and the city council<br />

covering the installation costs.<br />

The godwits (kuaka)<br />

usually arrive in mid-<br />

September after flying<br />

thousands of kilometres from<br />

their breeding grounds in<br />

Alaska. The wading birds spend<br />

the summer in Southshore<br />

before leaving in March.<br />

Veterinary practice<br />

“The Needle”<br />

Last week the decision was<br />

made to open up my beautiful<br />

girl Lola to retrieve a “bent<br />

needle” somewhere in her<br />

abdomen. I debated over this<br />

for 24 hours as I don’t like<br />

her having anaesthetics and<br />

I hate cutting her open. She<br />

was telling me she wasn’t<br />

right though, lagging behind<br />

on walks and eventually not<br />

wanting to leave the house,<br />

tucked up sore in her abdomen,<br />

head hung low and those sad<br />

eyes staring at me. She may not<br />

speak English but she sure talks<br />

to me.<br />

She is loved and adored by<br />

everyone at the clinic so my<br />

nurses took blood from her<br />

and run them in house. Everything tested<br />

was within normal limits. Richard Lucy then<br />

ultrasounded her abdomen and again<br />

nothing of concern was seen - thankfully.<br />

We radiographed her spine which appeared<br />

normal. What we did find was what looked<br />

to be a needle<br />

sitting ventrally<br />

in her abdomen. I<br />

was aware of the<br />

needle after her<br />

first surgery to<br />

remove her kidney<br />

due to cancer. The<br />

specialist surgeon<br />

mistakenly had<br />

left it behind. I had<br />

been monitoring<br />

its position with<br />

regular X-rays<br />

and it hadn’t<br />

moved in years.<br />

Last week when<br />

we radiographed her the needle<br />

had moved and appeared bent,<br />

necessitating removal.<br />

My colleague surgically operated<br />

on Lola as I find it difficult to cut my<br />

girl open. The rusty looking needle was<br />

removed and it had passed through a lobe<br />

of liver causing adhesions to the peritoneal<br />

wall lining. This would have caused her pain.<br />

These were freed up and she was closed and<br />

recovered so quickly with the aid of our “Bear<br />

Hugger’ which blows warm air around Lola<br />

on recovery.<br />

She’s getting lots of TLC at<br />

home and work and with my<br />

clients. She’s adored by so<br />

many and everyone wants<br />

her to recover speedily. She’s<br />

fought kidney cancer and<br />

chemo, split pad disease and<br />

intervertebral disc disease.<br />

She’s hard to keep down<br />

and out for too long. So far<br />

so good ( Lucky her parents<br />

are vets!!)- she’s more<br />

comfortable and<br />

moving better and<br />

that needle had<br />

to go!!<br />

Signage at Bottle Lake<br />

MORE SIGNAGE will be<br />

Mr Mauger, who is trying<br />

Mr Baker, who<br />

previously told <strong>Pegasus</strong><br />

was pleased the city council<br />

had acted on the board’s<br />

available for comment.<br />

Last week, <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong><br />

had erupted between Mr<br />

Mauger and Cr Livingstone<br />

over the remaining<br />

shingle pile and the fact<br />

Mr Mauger lived outside<br />

rather than criticising him,<br />

better and they were very<br />

Mr Hewson said the<br />

planned improvements<br />

would take place soon.<br />

“Signs to be updated are<br />

currently being reviewed<br />

and work will get under<br />

way as soon as the changes<br />

are ready.”<br />

Part of shingle pile still remains<br />

Cr Livingstone should “do<br />

week: “Glenn’s about to<br />

Oram Ave work may have to wait<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

WORK ON the highly<br />

anticipated extension of Oram<br />

Ave from New Brighton mall to<br />

Hawke St may not start as early<br />

as hoped.<br />

And Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board members are<br />

disappointed, saying not starting<br />

the extension as soon as possible<br />

has the potential to damage<br />

investment in the area.<br />

The project is being overseen<br />

by Development Christchurch<br />

Ltd, which said in March it<br />

supported making funding for<br />

the project available sooner.<br />

The board also asked in its<br />

submission to the city council’s<br />

Annual Plan if funding for the<br />

extension can be made available<br />

so work can start sooner than<br />

<strong>July</strong> 2026 as originally planned.<br />

Board chairwoman Kim<br />

Money said it wants the city<br />

council to make $100,000<br />

available between this year and<br />

next year and another $300,000<br />

available between 2020-2021 so<br />

work can start.<br />

However, the city council did<br />

not approve the board’s request<br />

at its Annual Plan meeting<br />

and instead asked for more<br />

information about bringing the<br />

funding forward.<br />

Said city council transport<br />

planning and delivery manager<br />

Lynette Ellis: “The funding<br />

needs for any early delivery of a<br />

portion of this work requires an<br />

initial project scope to identify<br />

an appropriate budget amount.<br />

Funding needs are not currently<br />

adequately defined.”<br />

She said the information<br />

the city council had asked for<br />

would be provided “as soon as<br />

practicable.”<br />

But Coastal Ward city<br />

councillor David East said it<br />

could take “a few months” for the<br />

information to be provided and<br />

this would delay work starting,<br />

which could also damage New<br />

Brighton’s growth.<br />

“All delays are not exactly<br />

conducive to getting the right<br />

mix of investor confidence and<br />

projects going forward,” he said.<br />

Ms Money was disappointed<br />

with the city council’s reaction<br />

DELAY:<br />

The city<br />

council has<br />

delayed its<br />

decision<br />

on<br />

whether<br />

to make<br />

$400,000<br />

available<br />

sooner to<br />

start work<br />

on the<br />

Oram Ave<br />

extension.<br />

to what she believed was a<br />

reasonable request.<br />

“Councillors need to<br />

understand that we’re trying to<br />

do a regeneration here and the<br />

board and DCL are asking for<br />

the same thing and time is of<br />

the essence,” she said. “To bring<br />

forward that most minor amount<br />

would have been helpful.”<br />

Both Ms Money and Cr East<br />

say they are frustrated because<br />

making the $400,000 available<br />

between now and 2021 would<br />

only have a small impact on<br />

ratepayers.<br />

Said Cr East: “The bigger<br />

chunks came in about year three,<br />

and at that stage, it would have a<br />

0.1 per cent impact on rates.”<br />

DCL chief executive Rob<br />

Hall said it would support the<br />

city council as it made further<br />

considerations.<br />

Concerns over boy racers<br />

•From page 1<br />

Said Mr Thomas: “The<br />

information currently available<br />

doesn’t indicate a specific issue<br />

with anti-social road-user activity<br />

in Waratah St, Briarmont St or<br />

Orrick Cres.”<br />

Cr Livingstone disagreed:<br />

“Some residents have told me<br />

that they have been reporting<br />

in the boy racer issue in those<br />

streets to the council call centre<br />

and they haven’t had at times<br />

the best of responses or there<br />

hasn’t been any action, so they’re<br />

feeling frustrated.”<br />

“It’s definitely a problem and<br />

there are no two ways about it,<br />

and we need to do what we can<br />

to address it.”<br />

When asked if Cr Livingstone<br />

was correct, Mr Thomas did not<br />

want to comment.<br />

Cr Livingstone has not<br />

reported the boy racers he has<br />

seen to police. Instead, he asked<br />

the city council to visit the<br />

streets. Once city council staff<br />

had done so, Cr Livingstone<br />

said it would give him stronger<br />

grounds to go to police.<br />

Said a police spokesperson:<br />

“Police are not aware of boy<br />

racer activity on these streets.<br />

We would be glad to receive any<br />

reports from the public that help<br />

us to identify areas to focus on.”<br />

Meanwhile, Cr Livingstone<br />

said the city council has a role<br />

to play if boy racers are to be<br />

he sent a request to city council<br />

Cr Livingstone said the<br />

residents he has spoken to did<br />

not want to go to <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong><br />

with their concerns as they want<br />

to keep their identities private.<br />

Bid to collect and display history along trail<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

INFORMATION is being<br />

sought on the history of the<br />

red zone areas covered by the<br />

Te Ara Ōtākaro Avon River<br />

Trail.<br />

The information collected<br />

will be displayed along the trail,<br />

which runs from the beginning<br />

of the Avon Loop to the edge of<br />

New Brighton through Wainoni,<br />

Burwood, Dallington and<br />

Richmond.<br />

Avebury House Trust<br />

treasurer Hayley Guglietta said<br />

the details about historic people<br />

and places will be on signboards<br />

along the trail.<br />

Mrs Guglietta said the<br />

information – which is being<br />

collected by organisations<br />

including the Avebury House<br />

History Group, New Brighton<br />

Museum, Dallington Residents<br />

Association History Group and<br />

the Avon-Otakaro Network –<br />

would be forgotten if it is not put<br />

on display.<br />

“Our objective is to either<br />

sign locate or digitally locate<br />

heritage information that has<br />

the potential to be lost due to<br />

the red-zoning of that land,” she<br />

said.<br />

“As people are getting older<br />

and that information is getting<br />

lost, if we haven’t captured it<br />

HISTORY: Avebury House Trust treasurer Hayley Guglietta is seeking information on the red<br />

zone’s history to display along the Te Ara Ōtākaro Avon River Trail. PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER<br />

somewhere, then potentially we<br />

won’t know that story and that’s<br />

a shame.”<br />

One signboard outlining<br />

the history of the Medway<br />

footbridge in Richmond, which<br />

was badly damaged in the<br />

earthquakes, has already<br />

been installed near the<br />

bridge.<br />

Mrs Guglietta said if<br />

enough information is<br />

collected, she hopes the<br />

signboards along the trail<br />

would be on display by the<br />

end of the year.<br />

•If you have information<br />

about the red zone’s<br />

history, phone 381<br />

6615 or email admin@<br />

aveburyhouse.co.nz<br />

PEOPLE ARE also being asked to<br />

share information about one of the<br />

settlers who named New Brighton<br />

– Stephen Brooker.<br />

The information and photos<br />

would be displayed on a sign along<br />

the Te Ara Ōtākaro Avon River<br />

Trail. New Brighton and Districts<br />

Historical Society and Museum<br />

president Tim Baker wants to find<br />

photos of Mr Brooker<br />

and any additional<br />

details about his life.<br />

Said Mr Baker: “He<br />

was one of the first<br />

settlers in the area<br />

and someone said<br />

what’s this called? He<br />

said New Brighton,<br />

because he came from Brighton<br />

(England).<br />

There is very little information<br />

Tim Baker<br />

available about Mr Brooker, he said.<br />

“It would be nice to be able<br />

to go along and say, well, this is<br />

approximately where New Brighton<br />

was named, in this year by Stephen<br />

Brooker and a bit about him.”<br />

Mr Baker said people should<br />

get in touch with him or any of<br />

the volunteer groups involved in<br />

researching the area’s history if they<br />

have information about Mr Brooker.<br />

•If you have information<br />

about Mr Brooker, phone<br />

Pump track views sought<br />

SCHOOLS<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

FEEDBACK IS being sought on<br />

a controversial pump track in<br />

Shirley.<br />

The city council began<br />

consultation last week on<br />

an $87,850 temporary track<br />

planned for the former Shirley<br />

Community Centre site.<br />

Shirley resident Don Gould is<br />

concerned about the cost of the<br />

pump track and<br />

is relieved people<br />

have another<br />

chance to make<br />

the city council<br />

change its mind.<br />

He said the<br />

money should be<br />

Don Gould<br />

spent on more<br />

urgent matters,<br />

like managing<br />

the climate emergency, which<br />

was declared by the city council<br />

in May, and reducing chlorine<br />

levels in the drinking water.<br />

“Everybody is going to need to<br />

tighten their belts a bit.”<br />

Said city council community<br />

parks manager Al Hardy: “We<br />

are responding to a demand<br />

for youth activities in the area.<br />

There is a gap in our network<br />

for skate and scootering<br />

activities in the Shirley area, so<br />

this proposal works to address<br />

this. In the latest Annual Plan<br />

to be adopted, the council has<br />

included a provision of funding<br />

to address climate change and<br />

water quality.”<br />

Mr Gould is also concerned<br />

about spending this much on a<br />

temporary pump track.<br />

“I have no problem at all with<br />

us spending $100,000 – because<br />

this will be $100,000 by the time<br />

we put it all in – on something<br />

that’s a permanent civic facility,<br />

but I do have a problem with<br />

spending that money on<br />

something that staff now tell<br />

me is likely to only be there for<br />

a year.”<br />

Mr Hardy said a decision on<br />

the pump track’s future if it is<br />

installed has not been made.<br />

“It could be moved to another<br />

site that requires activation or<br />

to address another gap in youth<br />

facilities. We haven’t confirmed<br />

SKATE:<br />

Public<br />

feedback<br />

on the<br />

pump track<br />

which pupil<br />

Shannon<br />

Smith, 11,<br />

requested<br />

will be<br />

open until<br />

<strong>July</strong> 29.<br />

how long it will remain at this<br />

site.”<br />

In April <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> reported<br />

on Shirley Primary School pupil<br />

Shannon Smith’s 30-signature<br />

petition, which was presented to<br />

the Papanui-Innes Community<br />

Board, asking for a permanent<br />

scooter, skateboard and bike<br />

track to be built at MacFarlane<br />

Park. However, a city council<br />

investigation found the site<br />

at 10 Shirley Rd was more<br />

appropriate.<br />

Shannon told <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong><br />

he did not want the track to be<br />

temporary, although he said it<br />

would be great while it lasted.<br />

Boxers following in fathers’ footsteps<br />

YOUNG GUN: Daniel Meehan continued his<br />

impressive junior boxing career by winning at<br />

the New Zealand Golden Gloves in Rotorua.<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

TWO TEENAGE Smiling Tigers<br />

Boxing Club members are following<br />

in the footsteps of their fathers<br />

after winning Golden Glove titles<br />

and gaining selection to the New<br />

Zealand development team.<br />

Daniel Meehan, 16, and Kwhali<br />

Beauchamp, 14, backed up their<br />

recent South Island Golden Glove<br />

titles by going onto claim national<br />

honours by unanimous decision in<br />

Rotorua.<br />

Meehan is the son of Danny<br />

Meehan – a former Jameson Belt<br />

holder. The belt is awarded to<br />

the most scientific senior boxer<br />

at the national championships.<br />

Meanwhile, Beauchamp is the son of<br />

former national champions and now<br />

professional boxer Nort Beauchamp.<br />

The pair have been boxing with<br />

Smiling Tigers for four years<br />

working under coach Mark Fuller.<br />

Beauchamp won the cadet 40kg<br />

title, while Meehan won the junior<br />

60kg title.<br />

“We’re absolutely stoked. Not just<br />

for them to win, but the way they<br />

fought was really pleasing,” said<br />

Fuller.<br />

Meehan’s title came as little<br />

surprise to Fuller. The Christchurch<br />

Boys’ High School student has<br />

previously won two New Zealand<br />

title and an Australian golden gloves<br />

title. He also came into the NZ<br />

Golden Gloves on the back of a win<br />

in Australia.<br />

“Because of his work rate and<br />

his angle changes I think he had<br />

SPORT<br />

his opponent flummoxed, it was a<br />

really convincing win for him,” said<br />

Fuller.<br />

However, Beauchamp’s result<br />

came as more of a surprise for the<br />

fighter shorter in stature than many<br />

of his opponents.<br />

“He’s a cracker, really fit, gives it<br />

plenty and has got some really good<br />

skills. I was absolutely stoked for<br />

him,” said Fuller.<br />

Titles were also won by Woolston<br />

boxers Hamuera Tainui and Ryley<br />

Sutherland. Tainui took out the<br />

junior 66kg title, while Sutherland<br />

won in the 46kg cadet.<br />

All four Canterbury boxers have<br />

also been selected in the New<br />

Zealand junior development squad<br />

following the Golden Gloves. The<br />

squad will travel to Australia later in<br />

the year.<br />

“They’ve actually started concentrating<br />

on the juniors as well which<br />

is really good . . . this is the first time<br />

in a very long time that they’ve sent<br />

away a good size squad like this, it’s<br />

going to be great and a good sign of<br />

things to come I think,” said Fuller.<br />

“All of those four boys have been<br />

around a wee while now, they’re<br />

only young, but they’ve got quite a<br />

bit of experience and they’re only<br />

going to get better with what the<br />

Canterbury association is doing to<br />

support them.”<br />

Salads never need to<br />

be boring, as seasonal<br />

ingredients are just that<br />

– seasonal. Winter brings<br />

delicious flavours and<br />

textures which go great with<br />

grains. But don’t forget to<br />

add a punchy dressing<br />

Buckwheat with<br />

autumn vegetables and<br />

pomegranate dressing<br />

Ingredients<br />

250g buckwheat groats, rinsed<br />

well<br />

1 bulb fennel, cut into thin<br />

wedges<br />

250g pumpkin, peeled and<br />

deseeded, cut into cubes<br />

Heat the oven to 200 deg C.<br />

Bring a medium-sized pot of<br />

lightly-salted water to the boil.<br />

Add the rinsed buckwheat and<br />

cook for 25-35min. The groats<br />

should be tender when cooked.<br />

Drain and rinse under cold<br />

water. Put into a large bowl.<br />

While the groats are cooking,<br />

prepare the vegetables.<br />

Put the chopped vegetables<br />

into a bowl with enough olive<br />

oil to coat them well. Season<br />

with salt and cracked pepper.<br />

Toss to combine. Spread evenly<br />

over a suitably-sized oven dish.<br />

Roast, turning occasionally so<br />

the vegetables cook evenly and<br />

colour all over (30min).<br />

Add the ingredients together<br />

and pour over the dressing in a<br />

small bowl and whisk together.<br />

Add the roasted vegetables to<br />

the cooked buckwheat, drizzle<br />

over the dressing and add the<br />

herbs. Toss gently to combine,<br />

necessary.<br />

Vision College’s free 20-week Certificate in Business<br />

(Administration and Technology) is a level 3 course<br />

that offers computer skills within a business focus for<br />

those wanting to retrain for modern office systems.<br />

The course is designed for those wanting to run<br />

the admin side of their own business, work in an<br />

computer applications like Microsoft Word, Excel<br />

communication skills and creating business<br />

documents.<br />

Vision College’s self-paced course allows students to<br />

work through a series of computer-based skills with<br />

tutor support, at times that suit their lifestyle. “Classes<br />

are held during normal working hours, but we can be<br />

flexible with hours that best suit our student’s lifestyle.”<br />

says Gary Taylor, Vision College Campus Manager.<br />

“So, the learning is delivered by way of a workbook,<br />

along with organised tutorials where tutors are on<br />

hand to offer one-on-one tuition when required. While<br />

some theory is included, the course is very practical<br />

and students are at a computer from the first lesson.”<br />

Added Taylor.<br />

This course is available for domestic students aged<br />

We recommend students bring their own devices to<br />

REAL ESTATE<br />

Living the dream…<br />

56 Purau Port Levy Rd, Purau Valley, Lyttelton Harbour<br />

Price: $799,000<br />

4 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 2 living rooms | 2 car garage | Listing Number: 8885<br />

A charming, delightful 1950’s bungalow set<br />

on nearly 1 acre of flat and very productive<br />

land. North facing, sheltered, sunny and<br />

private, this charming home is in excellent<br />

order throughout having been loved and<br />

carefully maintained over the years.<br />

The top level of the house comprises 2<br />

living areas, a large modern farmhouse style<br />

kitchen with plenty of storage, a massive<br />

master bedroom with adjoining bathroom<br />

and a single bedroom currently used as an<br />

office.<br />

The master bedroom opens onto a covered<br />

North facing verandah with a cosy coveredin<br />

area with a day bed, the perfect place to<br />

enjoy the afternoon sun, peace and birdlife<br />

and to while away a few hours. Downstairs,<br />

(externally accessed) are 2 double bedrooms,<br />

bathroom and a kitchenette/dining area so<br />

semi self-contained, perfect for extended<br />

family or teenagers.<br />

This is a rare opportunity to purchase in<br />

the beautiful picturesque Purau Valley and to<br />

obtain a small manageable holding like this is<br />

really one of a kind.<br />

The land is a mixture of lawns, gardens<br />

and the most established and productive<br />

orchard I have ever seen, with many many<br />

fruit trees established vege beds and native<br />

plantings. There is excellent access, a large<br />

double garage, greenhouse and other useful<br />

sheds and most importantly excellent water<br />

supplies.<br />

My vendors are retiring very reluctantly<br />

and have loved every minute of the 10 years<br />

they have spent here.<br />

Purau Bay is approximately 30 minutes’<br />

drive from Christchurch, making it a highly<br />

desirable destination as it is so useable being<br />

close to Christchurch.<br />

Properties in this lovely valley and by<br />

such a safe swimming beach are defying all<br />

the odds and selling fast generally as they<br />

come up very seldom. Excellent swimming,<br />

boating, walking and stunning sunsets on<br />

the hills, quick and easy access to Lyttelton<br />

via the Diamond Harbour ferry (approx. 5<br />

mins), local shops, cafés and bar make this a<br />

fun filled place to visit.<br />

Properties here make an excellent<br />

investment and Purau Bay and valley is a<br />

truly magical place to live.<br />
