Alcohol-free 

cafe plan 

fails to 

get past 

first round 

• By Jess Gibson 

DIAMOND Harbour residents 

have managed to scuttle a plan to 

build an alcohol-free cafe on the 

former Godley House site. 

Diamond Harbour Community 

Association chairman Richard 

Suggate said a city council report 

recommending the 

land at Stoddart 

Point Reserve be 

used for a venue 

with no liquor 

licence did not meet 

the aspirations of 

residents. 

“Godley House 

was there since the 

early 1900s and 

Richard 

Suggate 

for decades it served as a hotel, a 

bar, a cafe, beautiful grounds and 

provided entertainment,” he said. 

“Now residents are looking for a 

multi-purpose community social 

facility that can provide food 

and drinks, including alcoholic 

drinks. That would be the result 

that would satisfy most people in 

the community.” 

The Banks Peninsula 

Community Board has voted not 

to approve the proposal following 

a deputation by Mr Suggate on 

behalf of the association.

GOOD ON Diamond Harbour residents 

for digging their toes in over Godley House 

(see page 1). 

Godley House was once the watering 

hole where issues of the day were discussed 

over an ale or three. 

And for most partaking, the location meant it was a leisurely 

stroll home. 

But hold the phone – city council staff have tried to put a 

spanner in the works by making a cafe planned for the site 

alcohol-free! 

So the good folk of Diamond Harbour have rebelled and now 

have the backing of the Banks Peninsula Community Board: 

The cafe must have a liquor licence it says. 

Let’s hope common sense prevails and the city council agrees 

with the board decision. That way drinkers and non-drinkers 

will be happy.

Crossing the bar one last time 

• By Christine Toner 

SUMNER LIFEBOAT legend 

Paul Lawson died on September 

17. 

He was a former coxswain and 

president and his contributions 

over 21 years with Sumner 

Lifeboat Institution and 

Coastguard New Zealand were 

huge. 

Paul was always destined for 

a maritime life. At the age of 15 

he attended a seafaring school 

in England, joined the British 

Merchant Navy and embarked 

on a seafaring career across the 

globe. Saving lives at sea became 

a passion when he joined a busy 

unit of the RNLI (the United 

Kingdom’s lifeboat institution) 

based near Plymouth. 

The latter part of his career 

was spent with Lyttelton Port 

Company, most recently as a 

tugboat master. 

He joined the Sumner Lifeboat 

Institution in 1998. Peter 

McDonald, coxswain at the 

time, said that Paul’s experience 

was invaluable as the Thames 

class lifeboat – Lyttelton Port 

Company Rescue – arrived the 

same year and was a sea-change 

from the earlier lifeboats. 

Paul helped train the crews on 

the different techniques needed 

to operate the new vessel. “Paul 

was the right person at the right 

RATE INCREASES ARE NOT SUSTAINABLE 

þ Rates are projected to rise by more than 52% by 2028. 

Over the last three years, average rate rises have hit 5.25%. 

And that’s not factoring in the compounding effect of those 

increases.

þ 

REPAIR THE ROADS AND FOOTPATHS 

Eight years on from the quakes we still have endless 

roadworks, questionable sewage systems and fresh 

water that is compromised. 

I SUPPORT AN INTEGRATED WATER STRATEGY 

Water supply, waste water, storm water and water infrastructure 

are critically important. Our waterways and coastal water form a 

major part of the landscape and lives of the community. 

A CHANGE OF CULTURE IS REQUIRED 

Ratepayers want transparency and accountability without 

resorting to Official Information Act procedures. The Council 

has been branded as “the most secretive in the country.” 

LEGACY: Paul Lawson’s work with Sumner Lifeboat has saved 

many lives at sea. 

time for Sumner Lifeboat.” 

As training officer then 

coxswain, Paul led Sumner 

Lifeboat crew on many a 

challenging and rewarding 

training session and was always 

ready to give support and advice. 

As leader of volunteer search 

and rescue crew, his priority was 

to provide good gear and to train 

people well. 

By 2005 he had led the

Forü Council 

I WILL SEEK 

ACCOUNTABILITY 

REVIEW ALL COUNCIL EXPENDITURE 

þ Income and expenditure needs to be reviewed 

with urgency. The Council needs to comprehensively 

review how it manages assets to avoid soaring debt. 

INNER CITY DEVELOPMENT 

þ Central City residential developments are creating 

masses of on street car parking. These developments 

require off street parking areas.

commissioning of a new, 

purpose-built jet boat – Hamilton 

Jet Rescue – refurbishment 

of the buildings and facilities, 

and acquisition of a new jet 

ski, Southern Trust Rescue. He 

also led the restructuring of the 

management committee and a 

constitution update. 

Paul’s influence was felt in 

Coastguard New Zealand too. As 

a member of the southern region 

board from 2003 to 2012 and 

chairman from 2005 to 2011, he 

oversaw significant changes in 

the organisation. 

He was also a National 

Coastguard assessor and a 

Coastguard search and rescue 

adviser to the police. 

In that vein, his lifeboat legacy 

lives on. He was instrumental 

in the planning, design, 

commissioning and building of 

Blue Arrow Rescue, Sumner’s 

12.5m, all weather slipwaylaunched 

rescue vessel. 

This twin-water jet-propelled 

craft was the first of the now 

established Sumner Class 

subsequently adopted by the 

Bluff and North Canterbury 

Coastguard units. 

Paul’s lifeboat legacy will be 

remembered, his influence has 

been far reaching. His actions, 

knowledge and his generous 

giving of time has led to the 

saving of many lives at sea. 

CITY ACCESS, PARKING AND CONGESTION 

A smart city is an accessible city. The Council must listen 

to business people and road users and create a more 

user friendly accessible city. 

CLIMATE CHANGE 

We need individual and collective action to minimise 

climate change. Mitigation and adaptive management 

strategies are part of that discussion. 

In Brief 

SUMNER ROAD WORKS 

The road works which have been 

impacting Sumner businesses 

are set to be completed this week. 

The Sumner Village Master Plan 

enhancement work has been 

pushing shop owners to the limit 

since it began in March. Wakefield 

Ave, which was reduced to one lane 

during the works, is now open to 

two-way traffic. Most of the seats, 

cycle stands, planting and signage 

is in place and the final stages are 

due to be finished by Friday. 

LEASE FOR SURF CLUB 

A lease has been granted to the 

Taylors Mistake Surf Life Saving 

Club to facilitate its $3 million 

club rebuild. The Linwood- 

Central-Heathcote Community 

Board approved the club’s use 

of land at Taylors Mistake beach 

last week. The new pavilion will 

be constructed following the 

demolition of the old, earthquakedamaged 

clubrooms. 

STUDENT GRANTS 

Three Woolston students have 

received grants towards upcoming 

trips. The Linwood-Central- 

Heathcote Community Board 

approved $150 for Haddasah Timo’s 

trip to Samoa from Sunday until 

October 12. It also approved $200 

to Linwood College students Mapu 

O-Moungatonga Uasi and Sione Lei 

Uasi for the southern zone rugby

The city council report stated 

alcohol could not be sold on 

the land due to its recreation 

reserve status and there was “no 

real viable option to change to a 

different type which would suit 

the community’s aspirations 

for a local centre to gather and

But Mr Suggate said in his 

deputation the land could

CONCEPT DESIGNS are being 

finalised for a new skate park in 

Sumner. 

The development of the site at 

26 Nayland St is ballparked to cost 

about $500,000 – it will include 

skate and scooter park elements 

and minor landscaping works. 

Ideas from public consultation 

held from April 18 to May 20 have 

been incorporated into a draft 

design. 

When the designs are complete, 

further consultation will go out 

over the summer period. 

Once the feedback comes in, 

city council staff will present a 

report to the Linwood-Central- 

Heathcote Community Board 

in March or April. It will decide 

whether to approve the final design 

and if it goes through construction 

will start. 

City council head of parks 

Andrew Rutledge said the end 

date for construction will be 

determined by the complexity of 

the design. 

The community board approved 

the skate park’s location in November 

following a failed bid by 

a Sumner motel owner to stop it 

from being built across the road 

from his business.

Our Dogs, Ourselves 

The Story of a Singular Bond by 

Alexandra Horowitz 

We keep dogs and are kept by them. We love dogs and (we 

assume) we are loved by them. We buy them sweaters, toys, 

shoes; we are concerned with their social lives, their food, and their 

health. The story of humans and dogs is thousands of years old but 

is far from understood. In Our Dogs, Ourselves, Alexandra Horowitz 

explores all aspects of this unique and complex interspecies pairing. 

As Horowitz considers the current culture of dogdom, she reveals 

the odd, surprising, and contradictory ways we live with dogs. We 

celebrate their individuality but breed them for sameness. Despite 

our deep emotional relationships with dogs, legally they are property 

to be bought, sold, abandoned, or euthanized as we wish. Even the 

way we speak to our dogs is at once perplexing and delightful. 

In thirteen thoughtful and charming chapters, Our Dogs, Ourselves 

affirms our profound affection for this most charismatic of animals 

and opens our eyes to the companions at our sides as never before. 

Native Son 

The Writer’s Memoir by Witi Ihimaera 

The revealing sequel to the award-winning memoir Maori Boy. 

This is the second volume of memoir by this remarkable Maori 

writer and of the living myths that inspired him at the beginning of 

his career. Look at him, the young man on the cover. The year is 

1972, he is 28, his first book is about to be published, and he has 

every reason to kick up his heels. 

But behind that joyful smile, and the image of a writer footing it in 

the Pakeha world, there is another narrative, one that Witi has not 

told before. The story of a native son, struggling to find a place, a 

voice and an identity, and to put a secret past to rest. This sequel 

to his award-winning memoir picks up where Maori Boy stopped, 

following Witi through his triumphs and failures at school and 

university, to experimenting sexually, searching for love and purpose 

and to becoming our first Maori novelist. 

Ian McKellen: The Biography 

by Garry O’Connor 

The intimate and definitive biography of Ian McKellen, theatrical 

knight and a national treasure. 

Few actors achieve in their lifetime what Sir Ian McKellen has. 

A repertoire of vast commercial success coupled with critically 

acclaimed and authoritative Shakespearian roles. A man whose 

gargantuan personality and varied achievements inspire both 

admiration and affection. McKellen has been feted and admired 

in every country across the globe, and has been knighted by, and 

received the Companionship of Honour from Queen Elizabeth II. He 

is an icon of, and ardent campaigner in, the cause for LGBT rights. 

Many of us know of McKellen through his depiction of Gandalf in 

LORD OF THE RINGS. Garry O’Connor’s definitive biography reveals 

the man behind McKellen the actor. The inside story of the person 

himself: a constantly developing drama and a work in progress. Yet 

Garry O’Connor pulls no punches: some of his revelations may be 

controversial to his fans, even explosive, given McKellen’s constant 

ability to shock and surprise.

good, tasty food that just

Community service honoured 


INVOLVEMENT: Akaroa/Wairewa community 

governance manager Penelope Goldstone (left) 

presents Pam Richardson with a plaque recognising 

services to the Banks Peninsula Community Board. 

PLAQUES HAVE been 

presented to outgoing 

Banks Peninsula 

Community Board 

members in honour of their 

service to the community. 

Chairwoman Pam 

Richardson and members 

Felix Dawson, Janis Haley, 

John McLister and Jed 

O’Donoghue all gave 

valedictory speeches before 

bowing out of their final 

community board meeting 

last Monday. 

Each of them noted the 

respectful and cooperative 

way in which members had 

worked over the past three 

years. 

Ms Richardson has been 

involved with the community 

board for 12 years. 

“I will miss the networks 

that I’ve had. We were a 

good working board and 

we had fun along the way,” 

she said. 

Ms Richardson has 

experienced many changes 

over her years on the 

community board, which 

started just after the Banks 

Peninsula District Council 

amalgamated with the city 

council in 2006. 

Low level of remuneration 

and time commitments 

of the role are 

among the reasons which 

have contributed to some 

members’ decision to not 

stand for re-election. 

As it stands, community 

boards with bigger populations 

get higher remuneration, 

as the current 

remuneration model is set 

by population. 

By this model, Banks 

Peninsula Community 

Board members would 

receive $9864 and the 

chairperson $19,729 after 

the elections. 

However, the 

remuneration of the 

community boards will 

be decided when the new 

city council decides on the 

allocation of a $1,843,200 

governance pool.

New toilets 

for Cass Bay 


A NEW $225,000 toilet block will be 

installed in Cass Bay. 

The Banks Peninsula Community 

Board approved the construction 

of the public toilets beside the playground 

at 50 Bayview Pl during its 

most recent meeting. 

New facilities will include two 

unisex toilets which can be used as 

changing rooms, two external showers, 

signage in braille and a timber 

cladding design. 

The current toilet block is nearing 

the end of its life and given the increasing 

popularity of Cass Bay, the 

area needed facilities which could 

keep up with future demands. 

Parking at Cass Bay is currently 

being considered and city council 

staff have been asked to work with 

the Cass Bay Reserve management 

committee regarding a suggestion to 

install a sensory garden. 

Staff were also asked to consider 

including showers with all new or 

replacement toilet blocks planned 

for the Banks Peninsula in the 

future. 

Construction will begin in 

December and is expected to be 

complete by about May next year. 

Meanwhile, Lyttelton residents are 

hoping to get more toilets installed 

before a new cruise berth brings in 

large vessels next October. 

Neighbourhood barbecues on the menu 

• By Louis Day 

COMMUNITY BOARDS have 

taken little notice of Darryll 

Park’s idea to cut funding to 

neighbourhood barbecues in 

order to decrease rates. 

At a major mayoral debate 

on September 11, Mr Park said 

he would need to cut $100 million 

over three years from the 

city council budget in order to 

achieve his fundamental campaign 

promise of zero rates. 

When asked how he would 

do this he said he would look 

at cutting community funding, 

such as neighbourhood 

barbecues. This sparked a public 


POLITICAL pamphlets 

described as “racist propaganda” 

are being distributed to 

letterboxes in Lyttelton. 

The flyer, produced by 

lobby group Hobson’s Pledge, 

urges voters to question 

local body election candidates 

where they stand on racial 

separatism. 

Hobson’s Pledge, lead by 

former National Party and Act 

leader Don Brash, campaigns 

against what it claims to 

be preferential treatment 

backlash and was ridiculed 

by incumbent mayor Lianne 

Dalziel during the debate. 

Since Mr Park made his 

towards Māori. 

A woman who discovered 

the pamphlet in her letterbox 

made a post to the Lyttelton 

Facebook page calling it “racist 

propaganda” and “uninformed 

fear-mongering.” 

The pamphlet, which is being 

delivered to areas with the 

highest interest in local body 

voting, reads: “Want your rates 

spent on racial separatism?” 

“Mayors, councillors and 

bureaucrats were intent on 

dividing communities, handing 

power and money out according 

comments, 79 barbecues have 

been approved by community 

boards. 

The Banks Peninsula 

to ancestry and ethnicity,” it 

said. 

The pamphlet challenges 

the principals of the Treaty 

of Waitangi, which ensures 

councils provide a fair 

representation of Maori. 

“Maori do not need racebased 

representation to achieve 

success. It’s condescending to 

suggest that if we have Maori 

ancestry, we must be appointed 

or gifted council seats or voting 

rights instead of standing on 

our own merit.” 

The New Zealand 

Community Board has 

approved $1250 funding 

towards barbecues. 

Community board deputy 

chairman Tyrone Fields 

labelled Mr Park’s comments as 

“moronic.” 

“The barbecues cost very little 

and the social outcomes from 

them massively outweigh the 

costs,” he said. 

The Papanui-Innes Community 

Board approved $4000 for 

barbecues. 

John Stringer was the only 

member of the board to vote 

against the applications. 

Mr Stringer said he favoured 

Mr Park’s proposal. 

Political flyers labelled as ‘racist propaganda’ 

Maori Council asked the 

Human Rights Commission to 

investigate Hobson’s Pledge in 

May over its behaviour, which 

was believed to incite racism 

and violence. 

However, an HRC 

spokeswoman told Bay Harbour 

News it does not investigate 

such complaints. 

Hobson’s Pledge 

spokeswoman Fiona Mackenzie 

said there was “absolutely no 

racism in the Hobson Pledge’s 

pamphlet,” nor the group’s 

philosophy.

News 

Surgeon thanked with book 

• By Claire Booker 

JACKIE SMART couldn’t tell 

the difference between shampoo 

and conditioner in the shower 

without her glasses, now she 

can see the horizon without any 

trouble. 

As a token of her and husband 

Peter Smart’s gratitude, they 

gifted an 88-year-old book on 

ophthalmology to Mrs Smart’s 

surgeon at St George’s Hospital, 

Merivale Dr Paul Baddeley. 

The Akaroa couple were 

delighted with the results of the 

surgery, and Mrs Smart no longer 

wears the thick spectacles she 

once needed. 

“It’s a miracle, I couldn’t see 

anything at all. It’s changed my 

life, you know,” she said. 

The book was made before it 

was possible to photograph the 

back of the eye, so all the images 

are hand-drawn. 

Dr Baddeley has been an 

ophthalmologist for 17 years, and 

he said the gift of the book was a 

very nice thought. 

“Patients usually send a letter 

of thanks rather than gifts, 

but it’s extremely nice of the 

Smart’s to gift this to myself and 

to St George’s. Myself and my 

colleagues will treasure it and 

keep it in our department,” he 

said. 

The treatment for Mrs Smart’s

case was a similar approach to 

cataract surgery after a report 

found some forms of glaucoma 

could be treated this way, without 

as many risks as laser treatment. 

“I think it’s a wonderful, 

beautiful gift for our department, 

and it just reminds us that 

there were times before, when 

photographing the back of the 

eye was near impossible. It’s just 

a lovely thing for the Smarts to 

gift,” Dr Baddeley said. 

Mr Smart, who is a retired 

doctor, used to receive gifts 

when he worked as a general 

practitioner and has been 

collecting old medical equipment 

over many years. 

“The reason for giving the 

book to Paul is as a token of our 

appreciation for his kindness and 

professional services and because 

Jackie and I are so delighted with 

the results of his surgery,” Dr 

Smart said. 

Weeds invade river 

• By Matt Slaughter 

INVASIVE WEEDS are posing 

a threat to the Heathcote River. 

The city council is supporting 

the need to act urgently 

to remove invasive weed species 

from the river and other 

Christchurch waterways. 

City council land drainage 

manager Keith Davison said invasive 

weeds, including hanging 

sedge, reed sweet grass, yellow 

flag iris and reed canary grass, 

have been an issue in the river 

“for a very long time” and the 

problem has got worse. 

“In recent years more aggressive 

weeds have arrived 

that pose ever greater threats/ 

challenges. These weeds rapidly 

colonise the margins, displacing 

native and exotic vegetation. 

They may also grow into the 

river, forming large rafts of 

vegetation clogging the river,” 

he said. 

Mr Davison said if these sorts 

of weeds are just left “the river 

would likely be encroached by 

the fast-spreading weeds and 

larger plant species with native 

plants being forced out. 

“This could impact on the 

river by capturing sediment and 

diverting flows,” he said. 

Spreydon-Cashmere Community 

Board member Helene 

Mautner said invasive weeds are 

so widespread they may not be

the Heathcote River and on 

its banks are spreading and

able to be completely removed. 

“I think there are some weeds 

that are so well established now 

that it might not be possible 

even to remove them at this 

stage.” 

She said something has to be 

done now to at least stop the issue 

from getting worse. 

Mr Davison said city council 

staff have a strategy to address 

the weed problem but how 

much this will cost is “yet to be 

determined.’’ 

“Plans are in place to control 

the worst weeds through a 

combination of herbicide and 

physical removal as part of 

council’s Heathcote River bank 

stabilisation and sediment 

removal project,” Mr Davison 

said.

HOMEGROWN: Old recycling bins are an easy and efficient 

way to start your vegetable garden. 

IT’S SPRING. Time for planting. 

September is the time to sow 

seeds, and start your own 

vegetable garden if you don’t 

have one already. 

A vegetable garden has all 

sorts of benefits for you and your 

family. 

You can get nutrient-rich 

vegetables ‘on-tap’ and fresh for 

dinner, recycle your garden and 

kitchen scraps, increase carbon 

in your soil instead of warming 

the atmosphere, catch and 

use your rainwater and regularly 

de-stress by caring for plants. 

Vegetable growing can 

also make for a great family 

activity, in which you can learn 

more about nature and the 

environment together. 

But first, you need to decide 

what size and type of starter garden 

you want. You can choose 

organic or non-organic – using 

anything from a small container 

to a medium raised bed, a large 

natural soil bed or, if you’re feeling 

really confident, a food forest 

garden. 

If you are a beginner, you may 

want to use the popular and easy 

method of a vegetable garden 

planted in an old recycling bin. 

One plus is a container this 

size can be placed anywhere. 

A handy hint is to always 

mulch your soil. This reduces 

weeds, temperature extremes, 

soil erosion and bird diggings, 

and retains soil moisture, 

while adding carbon to feed 

microorganisms which release 

minerals for plants.

can you help others? Phone

VITTORIA 

& Matt 

From cheers to tears 

PEOPLE MUST think I’m an 

alcoholic or something. 

Vittoria loves to make little 

toasts, she’ll do it as soon as she 

has anything like a cup or bottle 

in hand. It’s all perfectly innocent 

I swear, but she even says “cheers”. 

However, when I took her for 

storytimes at Tūranga on Tuesday 

she started doing it with little 

plastic cups in the Imagination 

Station. 

There were plenty of parents 

around, yet not one said 

anything like “that’s cute”. A 

clear indication that they think 

I’m home all day setting a bad 

example. 

It’s been a quiet and thankfully 

normal first week back to postholiday 

normality, and Vittoria’s 

antics would have almost 

been the highlight if I hadn’t 

experienced my first serious 

temper tantrum. 

The wee darling was in an outof-sorts 

kind of way and when 

I served up her lunch it was full 

blown tears and heavy sobbing. 

For an entire hour Vittoria was 

completely lost to the tantrum, 

wandering the house utterly 

distraught. Occasionally writhing 

about on the floor or crying in a 

corner. 

Nothing I could do would calm 

her – singing, cuddles, talking 

calmly, changing the food or 

bringing out some normally 

popular fruit. No joy. 

In desperation, I turned to 

showing her videos of herself on 

my phone. 

Which, weirdly, worked almost 

straight away. She stopped crying 

and screaming, picked herself up 

and started laughing at a video of 

her dancing. 

It got her eating her lunch and 

back on the good behaviour train. 

I like the really good behaviour 

train. I just asked her if she 

wanted a nap after lunch and she 

just waved goodbye to her toys, 

jumped into my arms and was 

asleep within 15min. 

She then slept for an hour and a 

half and then was a total angel all 

afternoon and evening.

THE CANTERBURY schools’

been training hard all winter, 

taking on Arctic-like waves and 

weather,” said co-coach Nick 

Black. 

They are looking forward to 

competing on world class Raglan 

waves, against the best scholastic 

competition in New Zealand, he 

said. 

The team is coached by Black 

and Mark Perana. 

“We are grateful for generous 

support from Southern Trust,

WITH MARY IN FAITH 

TĀTOU KO MERE E WHAKAPONO ANA 

MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL 

This term has been a wonderful celebration 

of Marian’s Special Character and school 

culture. When girls are involved in school 

life, which is rich with celebrations and 

traditions, we see improvements in student 

learning, participation and wellbeing. 

This term we had Feast Day, which is the 

most anticipated religious event on the 

Marian College calendar and includes 

Mass, a house group singing competition, 

talent quest and plenty of fun. 

Our kapa haka team has combined with 

brother school St Bede’s College to 

produce a ‘super group’ which gave a 

moving performance at the Secondary 

Schools’ Kapa Haka Whakataetae 

Regionals. For many, it was a ‘first time on 

the stage’ experience. 

We are also underway exploring our 

school’s cultural narrative. As well as 

relocating Marian College in 2023 and 

all we represent, building a new school 

involves weaving the history and story 

of mana whenua into the fabric of our 

buildings and environment. 

On a recent staff only day, we traced the 

journey of the school; key women, role 

models from our past and shared stories 

and memories of the school from its 

beginning up to today. We look forward 

to future work on our cultural narrative as 

plans for our new school develop. 

For the latest Marian news and information, 

please check our website and follow us on 

Facebook. Enjoy the read!

the girls, coaches, manager, parents, caregivers, staff and supporters – what a 

fantastic result! 

FRANCESCA RELEASES FIRST SINGLE 

Our talented Head of Culture 

Francesca Humphries has written 

recorded and released her first 

single. Her beautiful song ‘I had 

a dream’ is available now on 

iTunes, Spotify and Google Play. 

Fran was selected to participate in 

an artist development programme 

with Nathan Phillips Vocals and 

the results are breath-taking. 

Well done Fran, we are very 

proud of you! You can follow 

Francesca @fraaancescaaamusic

Rising Japanese rugby star, Hitomi Oka, 

has enjoyed the International Rugby 

Programme (IRP) so much, she is staying 

on at Marian College. 

“Both in terms of my rugby and my life 

in general, I think I have become far more 

resilient and self-driven,” Hitomi says. 

“What I like best about Marian College is 

that teachers and students are very kind and 

welcoming to me.” 

Marian College Principal Mary-Lou 

Davidson says the IRP is an amazing 

opportunity for students from all over 

the world to come together for high 

performance sport development. 

“Our Marian students are exposed to the 

opportunities sport at this level brings. 

They make connections through the 

enjoyment of playing sport, develop 

manaakitanga and make long-lasting 

friendships,” Mrs Davidson says. 

Marian has partnered with St Bede’s 

College to host the International Rugby 

Programme (IRP) from 2019. The 17-yearold 

high-performance programme makes 

use of the latest technologies and practice. 

International students participate in a 

combination of rugby training, coaching 

and academic learning.

Tasty Bites 

American dessert to top off Kiwi main 

This well-known Florida 

dessert can be made even 

better with a box of fresh 

New Zealand limes 

Lime Pie 

Serves 8-10 

Ingredients 

250g digestive biscuits, well 

crushed 

100g butter, melted 

Filling 

390g sweetened condensed milk 

4 egg yolks 

1 tsp lime zest 

½ cup fresh lime juice 

Pinch of salt 

300ml cream, whipped 

Equipment 

20cm pie dish 

Directions 

Heat the oven to 180 deg C. 

Begin by crushing the biscuits 

to a fine crumb. 

Add the melted butter and mix 

well so all the crumbs are coated 

in the butter. Press firmly into 

the pie dish covering the sides. 

Bake for 15min. Remove and 

cool. 

To make the filling, mix the 

condensed milk with the egg 

yolks, lime juice and zest. Mix 

thoroughly and pour into the 

prepared pie crust. 

Bake the pie for 15min or until 

set. Remove from the oven and 

cool completely. 

Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, 

but preferably overnight. 

When ready to serve, 

traditionally it is covered with 

cream or you can serve it 

alongside if desired. 

The pie is a great way to top 

off a classic South Island main 

with meat and three veg 

Venison fillet 

Serves 4 

Ingredients 

850g venison fillet 

500ml extra virgin olive oil 

2 sprigs rosemary 

1/2 head cauliflower 

1 litre cream 

8 heads bok choi 

100ml tamari or soy sauce 

250g carrots 

500g agria potatoes 

2 litres beef stock 

1 litre chicken stock 

500ml red wine (pinot 

noir) 

Salt, butter and cooking oil 

Directions 

First cut the venison fillet into 

four 200g portions and marinate 

in olive oil and rosemary. 

Overnight is best, but for at least 

a couple of hours. 

Put stock and red wine in a 

pot and reduce until medium 

thickness and sticky, should 

have a deep meaty flavour. This 

may take an hour or so of rapid 

boiling/reduction. 

Slice potatoes as thin as 

possible and layer into a baking 

dish with a light sprinkle of salt 

every few layers. 

Bring cream to a boil and pour 

over potatoes, place in oven at 

165 deg C for about one hour 

or until golden and cooked 

through. 

This can be set aside and 

reheated or served fresh. 

Peel carrots, toss in olive oil 

and season. These can cook in 

the oven with the potatoes, and 

should be golden and soft to the 

bite when finished. 

Boil cauliflower florets in salty 

water with a dash of cream or 

milk in the water to make it 

cloudy. 

Boil for 5-8min until soft, then 

blitz in food processor with a 

few spoons of butter and salt to 

taste until smooth. This can be 

easily reheated in a saucepan. 

Sear venison in cooking oil in a 

hot skillet then transfer to oven 

for 5min Saute bok choi in a hot 

pan and deglaze with tamari – 

that should steam the bok choi 

through and add a nice sticky 

glaze. Serve cauliflower puree, 

venison and jus (gravy) on one 

plate and the sides to share are 

served in separate bowls. 

Serve with red wine vinegar on 

the side to help cut through the 

gaminess of the venison. 

Don’t assume your smoke alarms are working.

Tough choices for Mazda3 buyer 

Motoring 

Ross Kiddie 

WHEN I recently evaluated the 

entry-level Mazda3 with its 2-litre 

engine, I wrote that it was the car 

for me. 

For one, I particularly like the 

hatchback/sedan concept and, 

for another, its affordable price 

and build quality makes it a very 

tempting proposition. 

However, I’ve since changed 

my mind, after driving the next 

level up in the series I’ve discovered 

that it is even more tempting. 

The Mazda3 GTX shares much 

the same specification as the 

entry-level model, but its 2.5-litre 

engine is an absolute stunner and 

I’d be prepared to pay extra for it. 

To recap, the all-new Mazda3 

lands in six variations, there 

are three hatchbacksand three 

sedans, all priced similarly. There’s 

a choice of a 2-litre or 2.5-litre 

engine in both body styles, with 

Limited variations rounding out 

the series at $48,795. 

The base model GSX lands 

at $36,595, while the mid-spec 

model which has really captured 

my attention sits at $40,795. 

When I say mid-spec, it doesn’t 

miss out on much. Sure it doesn’t 

get leather trim nor electric seat 

adjustment, but that suits me 

fine. I’ve often written that some 

MAZDA3 GTX HATCHBACK: Effortless power from 2.5-litre 

engine. 

buyers don’t want all the bells and 

whistles and that’s me, I’m very 

much drawn to those models 

which provide the best value. 

The Mazda3 GTX benefits from 

its bigger engine. It does everything 

just so easily and never feels 

strained, also fuel usage isn’t compromised. 

Mazda claims 6.6-litre 

per 100km (43mpg) combined 

cycle average for the 2.5, that’s 

opposed to a 6.2l/100km (45mpg) 

figure for the 2-litre engine. That 

being the case, the difference is 

marginal. 

During my time with the GTX 

it was constantly sitting around 

7.8l/100km (36mpg), which was 

much the same as those I recorded 

in the GSX. At 100km/h 

the instantaneous readout sits 

at 5l/100km (56mpg) with the 

engine turning over at a leisurely1900rpm, 

reinforcing my statement 

that the engine is largely 

under stressed, and that accounts 

for the efficiency. 

On the subject of figures, 

Mazda claims 139kW and 252Nm 

power outputs for the 2.5 (2-litre, 

114kW and 200Nm). While the 

2-litre punches above its weight, 

the extra torque of the 2.5 really 

shows, the GTX is also lightweight 

at 1368kg, so the powerto-weight 

equation is biased 

well towards performance. The 

GTX will scamper to 100km/h in 

8.8sec, and will cut out a highway 

overtake in 4.9sec (80-120km/h). 

Drive is channelled through a 

six-speed automatic transmission, 

that is the only gearbox in the 

range. 

It stands out for its quick, 

smooth shifts andratios which 

always seem to have the engine 

in the right zone for response to 

throttle request. 

The GTX doesn’t get paddle 

shifters, but they are pretty much 

a luxury and are included on the 

Limited. However, if the driver 

wants to be involved in the gearshift 

process sequential shifts can 

be manipulated from the main 

gearshift lever. 

I took the evaluation car inland 

to Methven, it’s good to see the 

gateway to Mt Hutt vibrant on a 

Sunday afternoon. The roads were 

a little tricky with frost still showing 

on the grass berms, and water 

on the road that looked like it was 

on the point of freezing over with 

ice. 

Nevertheless, the Mazda3 

travelled the tricky sections with 

surety. There is a lot of rubber on 

the road (215/45 x 18in), consequently, 

there is a lot of feedback 

through the steering wheel and 

positive turn-in when corners 

arrive. 

I mentioned in my last evaluation 

that the new Mazda3 has 

a torsion beam rear suspension, 

that’s a departure from the previous 

generation model, nevertheless, 

the more I’m in the new 3 the 

more I’m enjoying the chassis and 

suspension dynamics. 

The rear doesn’t quite have the 

freedom of the past, but it’s not 

disgraced, and occupant comfort 

• Price – Mazda3 GTX 

hatchback, $40,795 

• Dimensions – Length, 

4460mm; width, 1795mm; 

height, 1435mm 

• Configuration – Fourcylinder, 

front-wheel-drive, 

2488cc, 139kW, 252Nm, 

six-speed automatic. 

• Performance – 

0-100km/h, 8.8sec 

• Fuel usage – 6.6l/100km 

has certainly not been jeopardised. 

The Mazda3’s handling 

qualities are certainly up to par. 

I particularly liked the way it 

steers and drives out of a corner, it 

is sports-like, and I guess that’s no 

surprise given Mazda’s heritage 

with performance vehicles. 

For its price the GTX is well 

specced. It gets satellite navigation, 

idle stop-start, head-up 

display and radar cruise control, 

the latter part of a huge safety 

package Mazda label I-Activesense 

that easily earns it a five-star 

Australasian New Car Assessment 

Program rating. 

The new Mazda3 hatchback 

stands out for one other reason, 

its styling is bold and captures 

attention. The rear quarter is 

almost chunky, but such is its flow 

it doesn’t look awkward. 

If its styling is too bold for some 

then the sedan could well be the 

way into the range. I’m due to 

drive it soon, and I simply can’t 

wait.


Locations such as this are rarely available. 

Here is your opportunity to settle in a 

beautiful home looking across the harbour. 

In a park like setting with gently sloping 

lawns and lush, established gardens the 

property connects directly to the waterfront 

via a pathway. With nothing in the way, it’s 

a magnificent panorama out to the Lyttelton 

Harbour and surrounding hills. Peaceful 

and ever changing, this must be the ultimate 

antidote to life’s daily stresses. 

The classic homestead sits at the top of 

the property enjoying the best of the views 

and sun. Built with family in mind there 

are four bedrooms, two living, 2 sunrooms 

and a large library/office that could be a 

fifth bedroom. The two bathrooms are of 

high quality, one being ensuite. The main 

family area is open plan with a huge kitchen 

at the heart. Granite benches and state of 

the art appliances make this a home-cook’s 

paradise. The dining area and adjoining 

living both open directly to a large deck 

and the ever-present vista. A wood burner 

with a feature stone surround adds the
