patrol<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

LYTTELTON residents have been<br />

complaining about crime and a<br />

lack of police presence.<br />

But only seven people have put<br />

their hand up to volunteer for a<br />

community patrol team, aimed<br />

at keeping an eye on the port and<br />

harbour areas when the police<br />

are not there at night and in the<br />

weekends.<br />

A community meeting with<br />

police and more than 80 residents<br />

was held to discuss the ongoing<br />

concerns people have with crime<br />

including vehicle theft and<br />

damage.<br />

A solution was to have one of<br />

the City to Sumner Community<br />

Watch vehicles patrolling<br />

Lyttelton.<br />

But the plan is on hold because<br />

of the lack of response from<br />

residents.<br />

Banks Peninsula Community<br />

Board candidate Reuben<br />

Davidson, who has been pushing<br />

to get volunteers, hosted a dropin<br />

meeting for the patrol on<br />

Saturday.<br />

from the editor’s desk<br />

THERE HAS been a lot of drum-beating<br />

about crime in Lyttelton on social media.<br />

Posters say there should be more police<br />

presence, particularly after 5pm and at the<br />

weekends when there appears to be little.<br />

The publicity promoted a private<br />

security firm to start patrols when police are not about.<br />

A community meeting was held where police said the<br />

perception there was a lot of crime in Lyttelton and the bay<br />

areas was not a true picture.<br />

A plan was put in place to designate a community patrol<br />

vehicle to Lyttelton. But community patrols need volunteers.<br />

Today (page 1) we reveal only seven people have put their<br />

hand up. That’s not enough to run the vehicle.<br />

Time for some of the people who have been complaining to<br />

step up.<br />

$23k crime cameras for Sumner<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

A GROUP of Sumner residents<br />

have finally won the battle to<br />

get crime prevention cameras<br />

installed in the village.<br />

The city council has confirmed<br />

it will fund the $23,000<br />

installation of five cameras<br />

on the corner of Mariner and<br />

Burgess Sts before the end of the<br />

year.<br />

Safer<br />

Sumner started<br />

advocating for<br />

the equipment in<br />

December 2017<br />

after a spike in<br />

crime.<br />

The group’s<br />

Kath<br />

Preston<br />

RATE INCREASES ARE NOT SUSTAINABLE<br />

þ Rates are projected to rise by more than 52% by 2<strong>02</strong>8.<br />

Over the last three years, average rate rises have hit 5.25%.<br />

And that’s not factoring in the compounding effect of those<br />

increases.<br />

þ<br />

þ<br />

þ<br />

spokeswoman<br />

Kath Preston<br />

said it is “rapt”<br />

to have closure after what has<br />

been a “very long and confusing<br />

process.”<br />

“We’re very excited about it.<br />

It’s taken a lot of perseverance,<br />

but all we wanted was this<br />

result,” she said.<br />

Safer Sumner raised $4000<br />

for the security cameras in 2017,<br />

but was told to approach the<br />

Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board for funding<br />

when the cost jumped to<br />

$20,000 after police requested<br />

the cameras be aligned with its<br />

system.<br />

REPAIR THE ROADS AND FOOTPATHS<br />

Eight years on from the quakes we still have endless<br />

roadworks, questionable sewage systems and fresh<br />

water that is compromised.<br />

I SUPPORT AN INTEGRATED WATER STRATEGY<br />

Water supply, waste water, storm water and water infrastructure<br />

are critically important. Our waterways and coastal water form a<br />

major part of the landscape and lives of the community.<br />

A CHANGE OF CULTURE IS REQUIRED<br />

Ratepayers want transparency and accountability without<br />

resorting to Official Information Act procedures. The Council<br />

has been branded as “the most secretive in the country.”<br />

WATCHING: Crime cameras will be installed in Sumner after<br />

a community group started advocating for them in December<br />

2017.<br />

However, there was<br />

confusion when a report in July<br />

recommended the community<br />

board decline the group’s<br />

application for $16,187 to help<br />

pay for the cameras.<br />

The report was then pulled<br />

from the board agenda at the<br />

“last minute” before its meeting<br />

due to Safer Sumner’s difficulty<br />

meeting the criteria within the<br />

application.<br />

Now city council head<br />

of community support,<br />

partnerships and governance<br />

John Filsell said after discussions<br />

with police, the decision to fund<br />

the cameras was delegated to<br />

city council staff.<br />

The equipment, which<br />

aligns with the police system,<br />

will include four static cameras<br />

and one camera able to pan<br />

360 degrees with zooming<br />

capability.<br />

Mr Filsell said the location<br />

REVIEW ALL COUNCIL EXPENDITURE<br />

þ Income and expenditure needs to be reviewed<br />

with urgency. The Council needs to comprehensively<br />

Community board member<br />

Darrell Latham,<br />

who has been<br />

pushing for the<br />

crime cameras,<br />

is “thrilled”<br />

they will now be<br />

installed.<br />

“Gaining<br />

approval has<br />

been a difficult<br />

process due<br />

to ongoing<br />

bureaucratic<br />

challenges.<br />

Nonetheless,<br />

a successful<br />

outcome has<br />

been achieved<br />

for the<br />

community and<br />

that is what is<br />

most important,”<br />

he said.<br />

“The struggle to achieve a<br />

positive result has been worth<br />

a few bruises and upsets along<br />

the way and I am absolutely<br />

delighted with the result.”<br />

CITY ACCESS, PARKING AND CONGESTION<br />

A smart city is an accessible city. The Council must listen<br />

to business people and road users and create a more<br />

user friendly accessible city.<br />

CLIMATE CHANGE<br />

We need individual and collective action to minimise<br />

climate change. Mitigation and adaptive management<br />

strategies are part of that discussion.<br />

In Brief<br />

SCHOOL LOCKDOWN<br />

Bamford School in Woolston<br />

was put in lockdown after a<br />

life-threatening incident at a<br />

neighbouring property last<br />

Wednesday. Gould Cres was<br />

cordoned off and the school was<br />

put in lockdown about 3pm.<br />

Parents picking up their children<br />

were made to wait outside the<br />

cordon. A police spokeswoman<br />

said there was a large police<br />

presence at the address, including<br />

the armed offenders squad. The<br />

lockdown was lifted at about 5pm.<br />

TSUNAMI SIRENS<br />

The tsunami warning sirens went<br />

off along the coastline between<br />

Brooklands and Taylors Mistake<br />

on Sunday at 11am as part of a<br />

biannual exercise to check they<br />

are operating correctly. City<br />

council head of Civil Defence<br />

and emergency management Rob<br />

Orchard said the routine tests<br />

provided a reminder to people in<br />

coastal and riverside areas that<br />

they should have an evacuation<br />

plan in place.<br />

CASS BAY TOILET BLOCK<br />

Last week <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News<br />

published an article stating a new<br />

two cubicle toilet building will be<br />

installed at Cass <strong>Bay</strong>. However,<br />

the building will actually have<br />

three cubicles. Construction<br />

on the toilet block will begin in<br />

December and is expected to be<br />

complete by about May next year.<br />

Developing future lifeguards<br />

•From page 1<br />

“It is a very dangerous spot that<br />

often looks wrongly calm and<br />

safe to members of the public.”<br />

The rescue took about 5min,<br />

and Miss Suter said the woman<br />

was fine once she was returned to<br />

the beach.<br />

Now the 25-year-old has been<br />

recognised for helping other<br />

young lifeguards undertake their<br />

first rescues. She was named<br />

instructor of the year at the Surf<br />

Life Saving New Zealand Awards<br />

of Excellence.<br />

Miss Suter said she was humbled<br />

to receive the award at Te<br />

Papa in Wellington.<br />

“There are a lot of volunteers<br />

in this organisation that put so<br />

much time and energy into it to<br />

make it what it is. I wouldn’t be<br />

able to do the instructing that<br />

I do without their support and<br />

help,” she said.<br />

Miss Suter is the head<br />

instructor and club captain in<br />

Sumner, where she organises and<br />

runs courses on lifeguarding,<br />

rock rescues and inflatable boat<br />

driving.<br />

She also leads the Canterbury<br />

lifeguard exams and has<br />

instructed at the Surf Life Saving<br />

New Zealand National Lifeguard<br />

School.<br />

“For me, surf lifesaving, it is a<br />

way to not only give back to the<br />

SENIOR LIVING<br />

SAVING LIVES: Mt Pleasant resident Kate Suter was named<br />

Surf Life Saving New Zealand instructor of the year.<br />

community and keep Kiwis safe<br />

on our coastlines, but I also enjoy<br />

being able to help develop future<br />

lifeguards and leaders in our<br />

community,” Miss Suter said.<br />

“It is awesome and very<br />

rewarding to see them develop<br />

and step up to instruct and lead<br />

our patrols to keep our beaches<br />

safe. Surf lifesaving has given me<br />

a lot of opportunities and friends<br />

for life that I am very thankful<br />

for.”<br />

Awards were also presented to<br />

New Zealand’s top surf lifeguard,<br />

lifesaving volunteer and the<br />

lifeguards responsible for the<br />

rescue of the year.<br />

Surf Life Saving New Zealand<br />

senior executive Matt Warren<br />

said the awards celebrated the<br />

“heroism, commitment and<br />

skills of people throughout the<br />

country who dedicate their<br />

time and effort to volunteering,<br />

and keeping Kiwis safe on our<br />

beaches.”<br />

There are 74 surf lifesaving<br />

clubs throughout New Zealand –<br />

and all are run by volunteers.<br />

“Surf Life Saving New<br />

Zealand’s volunteers have had<br />

another huge year,” Mr Warren<br />

said.<br />

“The skill level of our people<br />

was on show again this season<br />

with great rescues, sporting feats<br />

and administrative excellence.”<br />

More volunteers needed<br />

for community patrol<br />

•From page 1<br />

It was attended by nine people,<br />

including City to Sumner Patrol<br />

secretary Kathy Bessant and<br />

former chairman Allan Bain.<br />

“Everybody is busy, so it can<br />

seem difficult for people to<br />

commit to the patrol . . . but it<br />

is a small commitment and it<br />

doesn’t have to be hard work,” Mr<br />

Davidson said.<br />

Mr Davidson said at least six<br />

more volunteers were needed<br />

if the plan to have a designated<br />

community patrol vehicle in<br />

Lyttelton was to proceed.<br />

The car is staffed by two<br />

volunteers each time they go out<br />

on patrol.<br />

Volunteers must be over 25<br />

with a licence and would have to<br />

complete a standard police check<br />

and basic training.<br />

Mrs Bessant said if the car was<br />

housed in Lyttelton, people would<br />

just have to pick it up, patrol for<br />

three or four hours and return it.<br />

She said as a Lyttelton resident,<br />

she does not think people should<br />

have to come in from the city to<br />

patrol in the area.<br />

“Really, we’ve got to do it<br />

ourselves,” she said.<br />

She said residents should still<br />

continue to protect themselves<br />

from crime by locking up their<br />

cars and properties to deter<br />

offenders.<br />

PROSPECT: Banks Peninsula<br />

Community Board candidate<br />

Reuben Davidson has been<br />

pushing to get volunteers so<br />

that one of City to Sumner<br />

Community Patrol’s cars can<br />

be housed in Lyttelton. ​<br />

Senior Sergeant Roy Appley<br />

said he was not disappointed<br />

at the lack of numbers as<br />

“volunteers are volunteers.”<br />

“We would be lucky to have<br />

volunteers of any type and any<br />

number,” he said.<br />

Meanwhile, private security<br />

company Tactical Response Team<br />

has been voluntarily heading out<br />

at night since August in response<br />

to residents’ concerns over crime.<br />

Operations director Shannon<br />

Mudge said it was good news that<br />

a community patrol was in the<br />

works.<br />

Sumner Village? email your thoughts: jess.gibson@starmedia.kiwi<br />

Business booming after upgrade<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

UPGRADES TO Sumner<br />

Village are now complete – and<br />

business owners say they are<br />

already feeling positive about<br />

the finished product.<br />

The city council has finished<br />

its six-month project to improve<br />

the functionality, safety,<br />

connectivity and amenity of the<br />

area.<br />

While the<br />

project was<br />

under way,<br />

businesses<br />

said they were<br />

affected by<br />

the disruption<br />

Chrissie<br />

Beardsley<br />

from the work<br />

and traffic<br />

measures on<br />

the footpaths<br />

and roads outside their shops.<br />

Chrissie’s Label Clothing<br />

owner Chrissie Beardsley said<br />

sales have almost quadrupled<br />

now the project has been<br />

completed.<br />

She struggled to keep<br />

her secondhand designer<br />

clothing shop on Nayland St<br />

afloat during the road works,<br />

which she described as “souldestroying”<br />

at the time.<br />

“It’s been really busy. Freeing<br />

up the parking and having the<br />

flow of traffic again is fabulous,”<br />

she said.<br />

“Ever since it’s happened, I’ve<br />

been feeling a huge relief. It’s<br />

just amazing.<br />

I feel like I’ve<br />

been running<br />

off adrenaline.”<br />

She was<br />

unsure how she<br />

would feel once<br />

the project was over, but now<br />

she says the area is “looking<br />

really great.”<br />

affected when<br />

the road<br />

works were<br />

taking place<br />

outside his<br />

business on<br />

going great since the work was<br />

completed.<br />

that disruptive<br />

machineries<br />

such as pavers<br />

and trucks is<br />

now complete.<br />

it – it looks really great.”<br />

Joe’s Garage owner Callum<br />

Brownlee says Sumner will<br />

experience the “biggest<br />

summer” it has had yet thanks<br />

to the upgrades.<br />

He said the business was as<br />

busy on Sunday as it would be in<br />

summer.<br />

“People were sitting on the<br />

new furniture in the village<br />

and people were actually just<br />

walking around – it was epic.”<br />

Repairs to start<br />

on Akaroa wharf<br />

AKAROA’S AGEING wharf will<br />

undergo repairs over the next few<br />

weeks.<br />

The work will involve fixing<br />

broken piles and replacing some<br />

of the wharf’s support structures.<br />

Some of the capping and deck<br />

beams which are in poor condition<br />

will also be replaced.<br />

“A condition assessment of the<br />

wharf last year revealed a number<br />

of issues with it and long-term<br />

it will need to be<br />

replaced,’’ city<br />

council head of<br />

parks Andrew<br />

Rutledge said.<br />

“We are currently<br />

engaging with<br />

the community<br />

on options for a<br />

Andrew<br />

Work is expected to start in<br />

mid-<strong>October</strong> and should take<br />

about three weeks. The contractor<br />

will not be working on the<br />

wharf over weekends or on days<br />

when there are cruise ships in the<br />

harbour. “The work should cause<br />

minimal disruption to wharfusers<br />

as most of the repairs are<br />

focused on the below-deck,’’ Mr<br />

Rutledge said.<br />

The city council plans to seek<br />

community feedback on a concept<br />

design for a new wharf next year.<br />

Youths aim<br />

to create a<br />

healthy river<br />

YOUNG PEOPLE from schools<br />

and early learning centres are<br />

being asked to take action to<br />

create a healthy Heathcote River.<br />

The pilot project is a collaborative<br />

community approach to<br />

conservation education which<br />

aims to connect students along<br />

the river.<br />

City council parks programmes<br />

and partnerships manager Kate<br />

Russell said the project aims to<br />

establish a blueprint for student<br />

action to power environmental<br />

change within the river.<br />

“We are looking to these young<br />

people as the protectors of their<br />

local river environment and hope<br />

to expand this approach further<br />

afield,” Ms Russell said.<br />

Supported by city council education<br />

co-ordinator Sally Airey,<br />

the project encourages young<br />

people to take “guardianship” of<br />

the river.<br />

“We are inviting young people<br />

to lead community action to help<br />

create a healthy awa [river].<br />

Ms Airey, whose role is being<br />

funded by the Department of<br />

Conservation, said the initial<br />

project title – Healthy Ōpāwaho<br />

– expresses the “connection<br />

between a healthy river and a<br />

healthy community.”<br />

Dig out your historic photos for competition<br />

GIVEN TIME, even the most<br />

ordinary photo can be an<br />

extraordinary window into a<br />

different world.<br />

This photo, picturing the intersection<br />

of High, Hereford and<br />

Colombo Sts, was a highly commended<br />

entry in Christchurch<br />

City Libraries’ 2008 photo hunt.<br />

It was submitted by Tony Bowie<br />

and shows his mother and<br />

grandmother on their way to<br />

shop in High St in the late 1950s.<br />

During the 1950s, the central<br />

city was the prime destination<br />

for shopping in Christchurch,<br />

and women would don hats and<br />

gloves for their trip into town.<br />

The central city enjoyed this<br />

shopping heyday in the first half<br />

of the 20th-century, coinciding<br />

with the peak of reliance on<br />

public transport – first trams,<br />

then buses. Cathedral Square<br />

was the central hub of the city’s<br />

transport network, which connected<br />

the suburbs to the city<br />

centre.<br />

It was customary for people<br />

to go into town to shop, and to<br />

“take tea” in the tea rooms of<br />

the major department stores<br />

located on both sides of Cathedral<br />

Square.<br />

Beca Christchurch Heritage<br />

Festival <strong>2019</strong> starts on <strong>October</strong> 7<br />

and this year, as part of the festival,<br />

Christchurch City Libraries<br />

is celebrating 10 years of the<br />

Christchurch photo hunt.<br />

Over the past decade, the<br />

photo hunt has collected<br />

hundreds of great photos like<br />

this one, and Christchurch City<br />

Libraries hopes people will dust<br />

off their collections and unearth<br />

some more treasures.<br />

This year’s competition<br />

runs until <strong>October</strong> 31. Your<br />

photos are carefully scanned<br />

and preserved as part of<br />

Christchurch City Libraries’<br />

collection, and loaded onto<br />

the Discovery Wall at Tūranga<br />

(Central Library) so everyone<br />

can enjoy them.<br />

Trail runners hit the hills<br />

HUNDREDS OF trail<br />

runners will converge on<br />

the Port Hills or the Crater<br />

Rim Ultra event.<br />

Entrants, including elite<br />

competitors from across<br />

New Zealand and overseas,<br />

will take part in a variety of<br />

courses on <strong>October</strong> 13.<br />

The 53km race starts at<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> and<br />

heads up Mt Herbert before<br />

descending through the<br />

Packhorse Hut and across<br />

private farmland.<br />

Competitors will then<br />

run through the Christchurch<br />

Adventure Park and<br />

Crater Rim trail to finish in<br />

Hansen Park, Opawa.<br />

The race doubles as the<br />

Athletics New Zealand<br />

and Oceania trail running<br />

championships.<br />

Last year, runners came<br />

from 12 countries.<br />

The 30km, 22km, and<br />

10km events all run on the<br />

Crater Rim trail, with the<br />

30km also crossing private<br />

farmland.<br />

Among the top entrants<br />

in the 53km race are Vajin<br />

Armstrong, who recently<br />

returned from racing in<br />

Africa and America, last<br />

year’s podium finisher Otto<br />

Schumacher, and Hayden<br />

Zervos, winner of last<br />

year’s 30km race.<br />

HARD YARDS: Competitors from New Zealand and<br />

overseas can take part in either a 53km, 30km, 22km,<br />

or 10km race at the Crater Rim Ultra event. ​<br />

The women’s field<br />

includes Rose Pearson<br />

and Nory Lansing, both<br />

top-five place-getters last<br />

year, and Mel Aitken, who<br />

competed for New Zealand<br />

in the world trail running<br />

championships in Portugal<br />

this year.<br />

Race director Jamie<br />

Hawker said the event,<br />

organised by the Port Hills<br />

Athletic Club, welcomes<br />

everyone from the weekend<br />

warrior to elites from New<br />

Zealand, Australia and<br />

around the Pacific.<br />

“Every race has a tail-end<br />

Charlie so no one is ever<br />

on their own and there will<br />

be close on 100 marshals to<br />

help guide runners safely<br />

out over the four courses.<br />

“Our sponsors are local<br />

businesses, and our volunteers<br />

are individuals and<br />

groups such as Odyssey<br />

House and Achilles NZ,<br />

a running and walking<br />

group set up by the Blind<br />

Foundation, as well as our<br />

loyal club members.”<br />

Mr Hawker said the<br />

Port Hills are suited to offroad<br />

racing and are a big<br />

reason for the increasing<br />

popularity of the Crater<br />

Rim Ultra.<br />

“We have a unique event<br />

that embraces local trails<br />

and gets participants<br />

feeling a million miles<br />

away in nature above our<br />

city, but it’s all very close to<br />

town. So put in your entry,<br />

challenge yourself, and<br />

we’ll see you at the start<br />

line.”<br />

A $15,000 donation to the<br />

Christchurch City Mission<br />

will change the lives of 12<br />

Cantabrians.<br />

Last week, Smiths City’s<br />

Colombo St store manager,<br />

Kevin Owers presented the<br />

cheque to mission chief<br />

executive Matthew Mark.<br />

Mr Mark said the mission has<br />

to raise $5.5 million each year to<br />

cover the cost of the services it<br />

offers to people in need.<br />

“This $15,000 cheque will<br />

support 12 people through an<br />

alcohol and drug detox. It is an<br />

incredibly generous donation,”<br />

he said.<br />

Each year, the mission<br />

supports about 42 thousand<br />

HELPING:<br />

with a cheque<br />

to support<br />

people in need. ​<br />

Smiths City donates<br />

$15k to city mission<br />

Christchurch residents in need.<br />

It celebrated its 90th<br />

anniversary in July.<br />

“Almost 10 per cent of<br />

Christchurch’s population has<br />

been supported by the city<br />

mission,” Mr Mark said.<br />

Store manager Kevin Owers<br />

said he was “very proud” to<br />

make the presentation.<br />

“I couldn’t think of anyone<br />

better to give it to. It gives you<br />

tingles,” he said.<br />

Smiths City chief executive<br />

Roy Campbell said the company<br />

has been a supporter of the<br />

mission for many years.<br />

“It doesn’t matter where we<br />

are in New Zealand, we want to<br />

be those locals who help locals.<br />

It makes us immensely proud,”<br />

he said.<br />

Mt Pleasant School pupil<br />

inspired by Antarctic experience<br />

MT PLEASANT School pupil<br />

Holly Sawyer has had a taste<br />

of Antarctica, in what was the<br />

first Young Inspiring Explorers’<br />

Summit.<br />

Holly, 11, was one of 20 school<br />

children selected from hundreds<br />

of applicants from around the<br />

country to take part in the<br />

Christchurch event on September<br />

21 and 22.<br />

Students spent the weekend<br />

with the Antarctic Heritage<br />

Trust and Kiwi explorer William<br />

Pike, who lost his leg in the 2007<br />

Mt Ruapehu eruption.<br />

Young explorers stepped outside<br />

their comfort zone, camping<br />

out overnight, meeting huskies<br />

and penguins and learning about<br />

the inspiring stories of the great<br />

Antarctic explorers, including<br />

Ernest Shackleton and Sir Edmund<br />

Hillary.<br />

“It was a once in a lifetime<br />

experience. There are no words<br />

to describe it,” Holly said.<br />

Interacting with huskies and<br />

getting to harness one of the rescue<br />

dogs up for a 5km walk was a<br />

real highlight for Holly – as was<br />

learning how to pitch a tent.<br />

“When we tried putting up our<br />

tents it was tricky because none<br />

of us had ever done it before. We<br />

had no idea what to do but in the<br />

end it looked like a tent and it<br />

stayed up, so we must have done<br />

something right.”<br />

Holly is now using the information<br />

she learnt on the summit<br />

to do her bit in protecting the<br />

planet.<br />

“I would really like to make<br />

my carbon footprint smaller so I<br />

will be doing less driving, not<br />

using as much electricity and<br />

reducing food wastage.”<br />

The trust, in partnership with<br />

the William Pike Challenge,<br />

hosted the summit.<br />

Mr Pike said it was incredible<br />

to give Kiwi kids an opportunity<br />

to learn more about the history<br />

of Antarctica, its wildlife, science<br />

and importance to the world<br />

today.<br />

INFLUENTIAL:<br />

Explorer William<br />

Pike showed Holly<br />

Sawyer a glimpse<br />

of Antarctica at the<br />

Young Inspiring<br />

Explorers’ Summit.<br />

He says all young people<br />

deserve a future where they<br />

succeed in life, no matter what<br />

unexpected challenges and obstacles<br />

come their way.<br />

“To be prepared for what life<br />

throws at us, we need a bank of<br />

experiences under our belt, and<br />

that’s what the summit is all<br />

about,” Mr Pike said.<br />

Having completed the summit,<br />

the students will become<br />

members of the Antarctic Heritage<br />

Trust’s alumni programme,<br />

which includes inspiring explorers<br />

such as William Pike, Brando<br />

Yelavich and many others.<br />

The summit was supported by<br />

Office and the International<br />

Antarctic Centre.<br />

Julian Cross responds<br />

to an article about the<br />

temporary speed controls<br />

on Sumner Rd being made<br />

permanent<br />

I LIVE ON Sumner Rd and<br />

was annoyed to learn the Banks<br />

Peninsula Community Board<br />

have decided on this, as I was<br />

told by a roading engineer<br />

when it first reopened that they<br />

would have consultation with<br />

the affected residents before a<br />

final decision was made – this<br />

did not happen. In short, they<br />

have changed the parking from<br />

outside 18 and 22 Sumner<br />

Rd to the opposite side of the<br />

road – in spite of parking being<br />

outside our houses for many<br />

decades without incidence.<br />

Any passengers in our vehicles<br />

now have to alight into a big<br />

wide ditch. How the elderly are<br />

supposed to do this, I’m not sure.<br />

It is not even possible when it is<br />

raining heavily. This ditch needs<br />

covering properly to even make<br />

it safe. Perhaps a newly-elected<br />

and different community board<br />

could consider this a priority, if<br />

not common sense.<br />

John Broughton responds<br />

an article about planter<br />

boxes being stolen from<br />

properties in Woolston<br />

I HAD A largish, heavy<br />

concrete statuette stolen from<br />

my property in Silvester St,<br />

Woolston, last year, which was at<br />

the time when some other thefts<br />

were being commonly reported.<br />

My statuette was of a woman<br />

and two children, and was sitting<br />

on a heavy concrete plinth at<br />

the end of my driveway, totally<br />

visible from the street. This<br />

plinth and statuette had been<br />

in that same place for 13 years.<br />

The plinth was not stolen. Both<br />

the plinth and statuette would<br />

have required two people to lift<br />

and carry as they were heavy.<br />

This theft occurred overnight.<br />

Unfortunately, I have not been<br />

able to find the same statuette<br />

in Christchurch, so it was quite<br />

an expensive loss. It would be<br />

great if the police were more<br />

active and were able to piece<br />

these thefts together as they are<br />

possibly carried out by one party.<br />

Dawn Sutton responds to<br />

last week’s article about<br />

a failed plan to have an<br />

site<br />

that was a café, bar, meeting<br />

rooms and function rooms –<br />

something in context to the old<br />

building.<br />

It would provide much-needed<br />

local employment, not just at<br />

the venue, but for other locals<br />

like a florist, make-up and hair<br />

artists, photographers etc, as the<br />

venue would be used for many<br />

purposes like weddings, family<br />

functions and local community<br />

events.<br />

In addition, it would be a<br />

destination for those on the<br />

soon-to-arrive cruise ships to<br />

visit if they just wanted to do a<br />

local trip rather than go out on<br />

one of the day-long trips that<br />

often leave the cruise ships when<br />

in port.<br />

It would return the heart back<br />

into the community as that<br />

is what many viewed Godley<br />

House before it was destroyed by<br />

the earthquakes.<br />

Pirate’s Corner<br />

Boating questions – just ask<br />

Navigation safety officer<br />

Gary Manch encourages<br />

readers to send him their<br />

questions<br />

I HOPE YOU are all ready for<br />

summer. I certainly am – winter<br />

is not my favourite time of year,<br />

that’s for sure.<br />

As you know, I write a regular<br />

column for <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News<br />

and try to ensure the content is<br />

interesting for all boaties. I regularly<br />

ask for any comments from<br />

you in relation to questions about<br />

boating, but to date, I have not<br />

had one. From this, I guess I can<br />

take you are all up-to-date with<br />

the Navigation Safety Bylaw 2016,<br />

the relevant parts of the Maritime<br />

Transport Act 1994, and any<br />

other boating queries.<br />

This surprises me because when<br />

we are out on the water and speak<br />

to people about the rules and how<br />

they have broken them, they almost<br />

always say “sorry, I was not<br />

aware” or “I did not know.”<br />

One thing I do know is if you<br />

don’t ask, you will never know,<br />

so don’t be afraid to flick me an<br />

If you have a boating<br />

question, email<br />

gary.manch@ecan.govt.nz<br />

email with any queries or issues<br />

you have – about boating, of<br />

course.<br />

If there is a common theme, I<br />

can answer them in this column.<br />

I can assure you I will reply with<br />

the advice you seek and if I am<br />

not sure of the answer, it will be<br />

my job to find out and get back<br />

to you.<br />

We find that education is the<br />

best way to ensure compliance<br />

with the boating safety rules,<br />

so don’t be afraid to ask me, the<br />

Coastguard, or someone who has<br />

boating knowledge.<br />

That’s it from me this month.<br />

Remember, lifejackets that<br />

are sitting on the floor of the<br />

boat don’t save lives – wearing<br />

them does. This simple fact only<br />

hits home when someone has<br />

drowned. It’s too late then to say<br />

“I wish I had.” Catch you next<br />

month and hopefully, I will be<br />

busy answering the questions you<br />

send in.<br />

A new way of thinking<br />

for retaining walls<br />

ADVERToRIAl<br />

HMR Transport and Excavation have<br />

launched to Canterbury the globally<br />

popular Flex MSE® retaining wall system<br />

that eliminates the need for deep driven<br />

piles and concrete supports.<br />

The Director of HMR, Carlton Everest says the<br />

Flex MSE® system is an exciting alternative<br />

to conventional retaining walls as they are<br />

completely natural looking and require minimal<br />

levelling or subgrade embedment. ‘It’s exciting<br />

to be able to offer an eco-friendly and cost<br />

effective solution for residential or agricultural<br />

environments that look amazing’.<br />

HMR are the accredited installers for Flex<br />

MSE® Vegetated Wall Systems in Canterbury<br />

which is family owned business, operated by<br />

Carlton and Sarah Everest. ‘We work in the<br />

wider Canterbury Area and Banks Peninsula<br />

with a range of services on offer from general<br />

excavation services through to retaining wall<br />

systems. We provide solutions and services<br />

to our clients that will take care of their needs<br />

for the long run. We have completed many<br />

projects to date with great feedback with<br />

customers who love the end result’.<br />

Carlton believes The Flex MSE® retaining<br />

wall system will become a leading solution<br />

throughout Canterbury as it has very high<br />

settlement tolerance. ‘It weathers events that<br />

can do severe damage to other systems, and<br />

only gets stronger and greener as time goes<br />

on’.<br />

Being a proprietary Geobag system, it uses<br />

the same globally accepted principles of<br />

Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) that<br />

builders rely on for making large scale retaining<br />

walls. As it is made from a unique soft building<br />

material, the system eliminates the need<br />

for specialised equipment, cranes, footings<br />

or reinforcing, making it cost effective and<br />

sustainable. Flex MSE® can also be engineered<br />

for large scale construction use.<br />

If it’s time to upgrade, or if you’re planning for<br />

a new retaining wall, the Flex MSE system is<br />

a green and sustainable retaining solution.<br />

Facing her fear of deer<br />

SO A COUPLE of week’s<br />

ago I theorised that Vittoria’s<br />

experience of hand-feeding a<br />

kangaroo in Australia would<br />

mean she would no longer be<br />

scared to feed the deer or other<br />

larger animals at Willowbank.<br />

And I was right. Mostly.<br />

I finally got around to taking<br />

Vittoria back to Willowbank<br />

this week (getting the most out<br />

of that annual pass) and made<br />

sure to grab some animal food<br />

on the way into test the theory.<br />

Confidence swelled as she<br />

got keen enough to “borrow”<br />

some bird food from a passerby<br />

to throw at a duck near<br />

the entrance. Not that ducks<br />

were scary for her before, but<br />

it’s like she’s feeding an animal<br />

right?<br />

The first obstacle to my<br />

experiment was the fact that<br />

the deer were hiding in the far<br />

corner of their enclosure. Calling<br />

them over also drew in the<br />

second obstacle – more ducks.<br />

A pair of the brazen little<br />

beggers initially shied Vittoria<br />

away from feeding the deer as<br />

they sniffed about for a bit of<br />

the food as well. But they gave<br />

up soon enough and thankfully<br />

Vittoria maintained her<br />

composure.<br />

I handed her some food pellets,<br />

encouraged her towards<br />

the fence. She reached out and<br />

didn’t even shy or flinch as a<br />

deer moved in for a nibble.<br />

As its lips rubbed on her<br />

hand she let out a giggle of joy<br />

and reached for more food.<br />

Her enthusiasm was limited<br />

to the deer, however. After a<br />

half-hearted attempt at throwing<br />

some food at a kunekune,<br />

the prospect of feeding a donkey<br />

was a bridge too far.<br />

By the time we got to the<br />

wee sheep (animals she had<br />

managed to feed once before<br />

on a particularly brave day)<br />

she was content to just munch<br />

on some corn snacks and<br />

VITTORIA<br />

& Matt<br />

Still Pedalling!<br />

BRAVE:<br />

Picture<br />

proof that<br />

Vittoria<br />

is now<br />

unafraid<br />

of feeding<br />

deer.<br />

watch me feed them.<br />

So ended Vittoria’s animal<br />

feeding fun for the day.<br />

Might not have lasted long,<br />

but it was pretty cool seeing<br />

her over the fear of docile<br />

animals. She also repeatedly<br />

shushed a bolshy rooster so<br />

she could concentrate on<br />

lunch, so she was defintely top<br />

of my cool list for the day.<br />

Salmons has become a<br />

Coffee mugs<br />

for a<br />

good cause<br />

A GROUP of Sumner mothers<br />

has teamed up with well-known<br />

potter Tatyanna Meharry to<br />

create “Mummy Mugs.”<br />

The ceramic coffee mugs,<br />

which are made with sand from<br />

Sumner Beach, go towards<br />

supporting mothers across<br />

the country battling postnatal<br />

depression.<br />

Designer and mother of two<br />

Kat Gee said the group is on<br />

a mission to encourage other<br />

mums to take five minutes a day<br />

<strong>2019</strong> LocAL ELEcTionS - meet your candidates<br />

Gail Woods Standing for Community Board - Heathcote Ward<br />

Paid Advertising Feature<br />

I have lived in Redcliffs for 12 years with my<br />

husband Greg. We have 7 grown up children<br />

and 5 grandkids between us and are very proud<br />

of our blended family.<br />

My background is, I have had no previous<br />

involvement with local politics and have never<br />

stood on any boards. I was encouraged to<br />

apply for my local community board because<br />

of my advocacy stance in life. I am a qualified<br />

hairdresser with a degree in life skills. Over the<br />

past 21/2 years Greg and I have been involved<br />

in the water industry. I currently continue to<br />

manage this business. We have also assisted<br />

people with earthquake payouts and insurance<br />

problems. I personally have a great interest in<br />

natural health, but that’s another story. I believe<br />

if we START with One, then it is amazing how<br />

quick the answers come for all concerned.<br />

My main focus points are:<br />

1) Water and our reticulation systems. These<br />

are extremely compromised and seriously needs<br />

fixing;<br />

2) Rates. These need an overhaul to bring into a<br />

realist arena;<br />

3) New Policeman back in Sumner to help<br />

reduce local burglaries and crime;<br />

4) Climate issues, ways to mitigate;<br />

5) Roading repairs and footpaths. Remediated<br />

ASAP;<br />

6) 5G. Investigate its benefits and problems;<br />

7) Waterways in the South Shore and low lying<br />

areas, including Beachville Road.<br />

This brings me to the water issue. This<br />

is something I am very concerned about,<br />

especially following Medical Officer of Health<br />

Alistair Humphrey’s recent letter to the Ministry<br />

of Health /Internal Affairs. It raises deep<br />

concerns insisting that chlorine remains in our<br />

water until further notice due to the reticulation<br />

system. Pipe work under Christchurch City<br />

is compromised. Chlorine is a 112 year old<br />

technology, the only other technology older that<br />

we still use is the wheel!<br />

Authorised by Gail Woods, 61 Moncks Spur Road, Redcliffs, Christchurch 8081.<br />

Sara Templeton Standing for Councillor - Heathcote Ward<br />

As your councillor for the last three years I<br />

have been a strong advocate for our ward and<br />

an effective representative around the council<br />

table.<br />

Amongst other achievements I chaired<br />

the Taylors Mistake Baches working group,<br />

enabling a sensible resolution after thirty years.<br />

I secured funding to complete the Coastal<br />

Pathway around Moncks <strong>Bay</strong>, championed the<br />

extended delegations to Community Boards and<br />

chaired the Climate Change Working Group.<br />

We have made significant progress as a city<br />

in the last three years with the opening of the<br />

Town Hall, Tūranga, the Lichfield St carparking<br />

building, Matuku Tokotoko Sumner Centre,<br />

Ngā Puna Wai sports complex, Taiora QEII, the<br />

Signs of the Takahe and Kiwi, Nurses Memorial<br />

Chapel and Risingholme Community Centre,<br />

amongst many more.<br />

We’ve finished the Beachville and Peacocks<br />

Gallop’s sections of the Coastal Pathway, the<br />

Beachville and Scarborough steps and the<br />

wonderful Scarborough Playground. We’ve<br />

reopened Sumner Road and provided safe<br />

cycleways so commuters and school kids<br />

can bike around safely. We’ve completed key<br />

flooding projects like Dudley Creek and the<br />

Heathcote flood detention basins, dredging and<br />

bank stabilisation is almost complete.<br />

However, like you, I know there is still much<br />

to do, especially with our drinking water and<br />

roading. I have consistently pushed to keep our<br />

water chlorine free, for safe and sustainable<br />

transport options, a healthy natural environment<br />

and greater Council transparency.<br />

Council also needs to engage residents<br />

meaningfully in the development of our Climate<br />

Change strategy, including the challenges and<br />

opportunities of mitigation and adaptation,<br />

enabling the transition to a thriving, sustainable<br />

city.<br />

For experienced, effective local leadership,<br />

vote Sara Templeton for Council.<br />

Authorised by Sara Templeton, 23 Marsden Street, Heathcote Valley, Christchurch 8<strong>02</strong>2.<br />

Tim Lindley Standing for Community Board - Heathcote Ward<br />

As a former business development manager<br />

for a CRI and being involved in four start-up<br />

businesses, I am very experienced at setting<br />

up, overseeing and troubleshooting projects.<br />

I have a PhD in chemistry and studied<br />

economics for two years so can move easily<br />

between technical and financial matters at both<br />

overview and detail level, very important skills<br />

for community board work<br />

I have volunteered extensively in<br />

communities. I was on the Vestry of All Saints<br />

Sumner when Fuse youth centre was set up,<br />

volunteered in Aranui as support person to<br />

Rev Mike Coleman and his successor, chaired<br />

the Coastal Pathway Group in its early years<br />

and am on the board of the Ihutai Estuary<br />

Trust. So, as well as understanding projects I<br />

understand diverse communities and how to<br />

work with them.<br />

In my first term on the community board,<br />

I have been a strong supporter of the very<br />

complex Heathcote River recovery project,<br />

worked on the Opawa Library rebuild, and on<br />

implementing several community initiatives in<br />

Waltham. I am very pleased that completing<br />

the coastal pathway is in the long-term plan<br />

and the Estuary has gained international<br />

flyway status. I led submitting feedback from<br />

our board on proposed changes to the regional<br />

district plan and government’s draft policy on<br />

planning for successful cities. I also served on<br />

several hearings panels.<br />

I will continue to support the community<br />

board being effective and transparent, turning<br />

good ideas from communities into actions, a<br />

more healthy, natural city environment, safe<br />

active urban transport including cycleways,<br />

supporting local businesses and facilities, and<br />

prudent financial management within council.<br />

Authorised by Tim Lindley, 28 Patmos Place, Mt Pleasant, Christchurch 8081.<br />

Darrell Latham Standing for Councillor and Community Board - Heathcote Ward<br />

As an elected representative I have a proven<br />

track record advocating and gaining results for<br />

residents. I do ask the hard questions and I do<br />

seek accountability from the Council on your<br />

behalf.<br />

This is a defining election and ratepayers are<br />

losing faith with the council. Areas of concern<br />

include.<br />

• Rates that are projected to rise by more<br />

than 52% by 2<strong>02</strong>8. Over the last three years,<br />

average rate rises have hit 5.25%. This is<br />

unacceptable.<br />

• The Council needs to review income and<br />

expenditure and how it manages assets to<br />

avoid soaring debt.<br />

• Ratepayers want transparency and<br />

accountability without resorting to Official<br />

Information Act procedures. The Council has<br />

been branded as ‘’the most secretive in the<br />

country.’’ A change of culture is required.<br />

• Eight years on from the quakes we still<br />

have endless roadworks, questionable sewage<br />

systems and water that is compromised.<br />

• Water supply, waste water, storm water and<br />

water infrastructure are critically important. Our<br />

waterways and coastal water form a major part<br />

of the landscape and lives of the community.<br />

• Central City residential developments<br />

are creating masses of on street car parking.<br />

These developments require off street parking<br />

areas.<br />

• A smart city is an accessible city. The<br />

Council must listen to business people<br />

and road users and create a user friendly<br />

accessible city.<br />

• We need individual and collective action<br />

to minimise climate change. Mitigation and<br />

adaptive management strategies must be part<br />

of that discussion.<br />

I am decisive, determined and dependable<br />

and I will represent all Heathcote residents with<br />

enthusiasm.<br />

Authorised by Dr Darrell Latham, 53 Colenso Street, Sumner, Christchurch 8081.<br />

Alexandra Davids Standing for Canterbury District Health Board<br />

I am fully committed to giving all members<br />

of our communities the strong, positive<br />

representation they deserve.<br />

I have been an elected member since 2013.<br />

In this time, I have held a variety of positions,<br />

including my daily work with Women’s Refuge<br />

at the Battered Women’s Trust which has<br />

given me an insight into the daily struggles<br />

going on behind closed doors, Chair of<br />

Keep New Zealand Beautiful, Chair of Keep<br />

Christchurch Beautiful, Elected Member of the<br />

Local Government Young Elected Members<br />

Board, Local Government Elected Member<br />

of the national Community Board Executive<br />

Committee, Trustee of the Graeme Dingle<br />

Foundation, Chair of Whitau School.<br />

These experiences have given me the<br />

opportunity to continue to develop the<br />

leadership and mediation skills we need<br />

around the table within the CDHB for us to<br />

make positive steps forward for the entire<br />

Canterbury region.<br />

I am a proactive, results-focussed candidate<br />

with the enthusiasm and energy needed to<br />

effect positive change.<br />

As your elected representative I aim to<br />

strongly advocate for a parking solution for<br />

Christchurch Hospital, future focussed decision<br />

marking and more resourcing for our aging<br />

population, more support for mental health and<br />

chlorine free water.<br />

<strong>2019</strong> LocaL ELEcTions - meet your candidates<br />

Lianne Dalziel Christchurch Mayor - Standing for re-election<br />

Paid Advertising Feature<br />

Re-elect Lianne Dalziel Mayor<br />

“I love Christchurch and am confident about our<br />

future. With my experience and inclusive style<br />

of leadership, we can tackle any challenges that<br />

lie ahead, while seizing every opportunity that<br />

comes our way.”<br />

It is vital we keep the momentum going.<br />

My immediate priorities are:<br />

Water: Investment in our infrastructure will<br />

deliver pure water safely to your home. I<br />

will fight Government-imposed mandatory<br />

chlorination.<br />

Rates: I will bring rates rises down while<br />

ensuring continued infrastructure investment,<br />

and balancing council debt and inflation.<br />

Central City: A vibrant city centre is essential.<br />

Having secured $300m for Christchurch, the<br />

stadium will be a multi-use facility. I will continue<br />

to back the developers leading the way.<br />

Sustainability: I am committed to reducing our<br />

city’s carbon footprint, and helping communities<br />

prepare for the impacts of climate change.<br />

Eastern Alliance: An alliance of contractors will<br />

deliver a fully integrated programme of works<br />

across the east, fixing the roads, footpaths and<br />

pipes and building stopbanks.<br />

Do it once, do it right.<br />

John Minto Standing for Christchurch Mayor<br />

I am standing as a KOA (Keep our Assets<br />

Canterbury) candidate for mayor because we<br />

want a future for Christchurch which makes<br />

sense.<br />

The city faces three big challenges: a<br />

climate emergency, a water supply threatened<br />

by contaminants and many people struggling<br />

on poverty incomes without dignity or selfrespect.<br />

Our policies are to reduce greenhouse<br />

gas emissions with free and frequent public<br />

transport; provide a local zone for Canterbury<br />

businesses and co-operatives in the city<br />

centre; rebuild the 400 council rental homes<br />

destroyed in the earthquakes; future-proof<br />

our water supply and develop a plan for<br />

swimmable rivers; rate increases kept to the<br />

rate of inflation and a minimum of the living<br />

wage for all council work.<br />

As well as significantly reducing our<br />

greenhouse gas emissions, fare-free public<br />

transport will create a more cohesive, less<br />

divided city as people mix and mingle on<br />

modern, low-emission buses with free wifi.<br />

It will also save families approximately four<br />

weeks pay per year in transport costs which<br />

will be spent in the local economy giving a<br />

boost to local businesses and co-operatives.<br />

This policy will not increase rates because<br />

it will be paid for from existing government<br />

budgets by rebalancing transport funding away<br />

from new roads in favour of public transport.<br />

These policies will improve our lives while<br />

saving the council money. More details are at<br />

Darryll Park Standing for Christchurch Mayor<br />

Hello there, I am Darryll Park, a proud<br />

Cantabrian, and extremely passionate about this,<br />

our city of Christchurch.<br />

I have lived and worked in and around<br />

Christchurch all of my life.<br />

In the past I was the CEO of Christchurch<br />

& Canterbury Marketing Ltd, and I helped<br />

to reposition Tourism under the government<br />

Tourism 2010 Strategy, as well as past board<br />

member of Civil Aviation Authority & Aviation<br />

Security Services, two government agencies and<br />

was employed as Air NZ South Island Manager<br />

until 1998.<br />

Nowadays I am the co-owner of Oxford<br />

Management Services, a property development<br />

and management company supporting<br />

hospitality, Chair of Mondo Travel Group, and a<br />

Director of the Canterbury Rugby Union and the<br />

Crusaders.<br />

What I’m standing for<br />

I am standing as a Mayoralty candidate for<br />

Christchurch in the upcoming elections. I am<br />

campaigning to ‘Move Christchurch Forward’,<br />

with a focus on common sense, a back to basics<br />

approach and better ways to move us forward.<br />

Why am I doing this?<br />

Quite simply, I want to restore public trust in<br />

Christchurch’s local leadership and with your<br />

help, do what’s needed to be done to make<br />

Christchurch, New Zealand’s most liveable city.<br />

This will mean being accountable and<br />

transparent to you, the voter, ratepayer, resident<br />

and business community. Our key areas of<br />

focus are rates, water, infrastructure, tourism,<br />

sustainability, institutions and events, crime and<br />

communities. I will be revealing our policies over<br />

the coming weeks.<br />

There is much to be done, and if elected, I will<br />

stand aside from my current business interests<br />

and governance roles to ensure my focus on this<br />

city is absolute.<br />

Thank you for your interest, and if you want to<br />

help move Christchurch forward, I look forward<br />

to your vote.<br />

2007-2010 from Save Our Water campaign,<br />

I ask your vote of support again, returning<br />

democracy and public oversight to Canterbury<br />

Regional Council.<br />

Biosecurity brings rural and urban people<br />

together, against pest animals and plants that<br />

undermine our economy and biodiversity.<br />

As a Predator Free Port Hills coordinator<br />

for Cashmere, I work with the Summit Road<br />

Society, Banks Peninsula Conservation Trust,<br />

DOC and council staff, to help our communities<br />

protect the native species we all treasure.<br />

Parallel to the Canterbury Water Management<br />

Strategy and Zone Committees our elected<br />

how all society can work together, for the<br />

common good.<br />

Emergency preparedness can’t be forgotten<br />

and was the portfolio chair I held for the last full<br />

elected Ecan board, before the earthquakes.<br />

I have deepened readiness awareness<br />

from then since, as a city civil defence and<br />

residents’ group volunteer. I would help all<br />

communites advance thorough emergency<br />

response plans. Disasters can strike any<br />

time, lest we forget. <strong>Harbour</strong> safety and public<br />

transport are important. Climate change<br />

mitigation work is most urgently essential to<br />

begin.<br />

Tasty Bites<br />

Sweet vegan classics from Asia<br />

Try a vegan take on<br />

some Asian classics<br />

Indonesian crumpets<br />

Makes 20<br />

Ingredients<br />

250ml (1 cup) soy or coconut<br />

milk<br />

7g sachet dried active yeast<br />

1 tsp coconut sugar<br />

300g (2 cups) plain flour<br />

2 tsp bicarbonate of soda<br />

1 tsp sea salt<br />

1 tsp vanilla powder<br />

Olive oil or vegan butter, for<br />

greasing<br />

Suggested toppings:<br />

Coconut yoghurt, vegan butter,<br />

pure maple syrup, fresh berries,<br />

shredded basil leaves, dried<br />

edible flowers, hemp seeds, icing<br />

sugar.<br />

Directions<br />

Gently warm the soy or<br />

coconut milk and 250ml (one<br />

cup) of water in a saucepan<br />

over low heat until just warmed<br />

through (don’t warm the liquid<br />

too much or you will kill your<br />

yeast). Pour the liquid into a<br />

bowl and add the dried yeast<br />

and sugar. Set aside in a warm<br />

place for 15min or until the<br />

surface starts to foam. Sift the<br />

flour, bicarbonate of soda, salt<br />

and vanilla into a large bowl.<br />

Add the yeast mixture and stir to<br />

combine. Place a clean damp tea<br />

towel over the mixing bowl and<br />

set aside for 35-40min or until<br />

the mixture is risen and bubbly.<br />

Heat the oven to 100 deg C<br />

fan-forced. Lightly grease a large<br />

frying pan and set over mediumhigh<br />

heat, then lightly grease a<br />

few egg rings and place them in<br />

the pan.<br />

Stir the mixture again – it<br />

should look like thick, bubbly<br />

pancake batter. Add 60-125ml<br />

(¼ cup-½ cup) more water to<br />

reach the desired consistency if<br />

necessary.<br />

Spoon two to three<br />

tablespoons of the mixture into<br />

each egg ring. Cook for 2min<br />

or until the tops are completely<br />

covered in bubbles and the<br />

batter is dry. Remove the egg<br />

rings, transfer the crumpets<br />

to a heatproof plate and keep<br />

warm in the oven. Repeat with<br />

the remaining mixture to make<br />

about 20 crumpets.<br />

Serve the warm crumpets with<br />

your favourite toppings.<br />

Any leftover crumpets will<br />

keep in an airtight container in<br />

the fridge for two to three days<br />

or in the freezer for up to two<br />

weeks.<br />

Chana masala<br />

Serves 2<br />

Ingredients<br />

2 Tbsp avocado oil<br />

1 onion, diced<br />

400g can whole tomatoes<br />

400g can chickpeas, drained and<br />

rinsed (see tip)<br />

2 tsp coconut sugar<br />

2 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon<br />

juice, plus lemon wedges to serve<br />

Sea salt<br />

Chopped coriander leaves, to<br />

serve<br />

Steamed basmati rice or garlic<br />

Naan to serve<br />

Masala curry paste<br />

2-3 long red chillies, roughly<br />

chopped<br />

3 garlic cloves, roughly chopped<br />

2 tsp ground cumin<br />

2-3cm piece of ginger, roughly<br />

chopped<br />

1 tsp ground turmeric<br />

1/2 tsp sea salt<br />

1 tsp black peppercorns<br />

1 tsp garam masala<br />

1 tsp ground coriander<br />

1 tsp brown mustard seeds<br />

Directions<br />

Using a large mortar and<br />

pestle, pound the masala curry<br />

paste ingredients for about<br />

10min or until you have a<br />

smooth paste (alternatively,<br />

you can use a small food<br />

processor.)<br />

Heat a saucepan over medium<br />

heat, add the oil and curry paste<br />

and saute for 30sec.<br />

Add the onion and saute for<br />

2min, then stir through the<br />

tomatoes and chickpeas.<br />

Reduce the heat to low and<br />

simmer for 30min or until<br />

reduced to a thick curry.<br />

Remove the pan from the heat,<br />

stir through the sugar and lemon<br />

juice, then taste and add a little<br />

salt, if necessary.<br />

Sprinkle the chana masala<br />

with coriander and serve with<br />

steamed basmati rice or garlic<br />

naan on the side and lemon<br />

wedges for squeezing over.<br />

Tip: Keep your chickpea liquid<br />

(aquafaba) to make sriracha<br />

mayo or caesar dressing.<br />

Haul those bulky loads in a Toyota Hiace<br />

Motoring<br />

Ross Kiddie<br />

IF YOU ARE a courier driver in<br />

Christchurch, the chances are<br />

you are probably driving a Toyota<br />

Hiace van.<br />

I can say that with absolute<br />

confidence, for several years Star<br />

Media was located opposite a<br />

courier company and there was<br />

a constant succession of Hiaces<br />

arriving and departing.<br />

Sure, there was the occasional<br />

Ford Transit, and others, but<br />

Toyota has captured that market<br />

well and if you take into account<br />

the number that are used by<br />

tradies and companies, New Zealand<br />

has been a lucrative market<br />

for Toyota.<br />

For those who like the square,<br />

boxy shape of Hiace, don’t be<br />

disappointed, there’s no sign of it<br />

ending its lifecycle anytime soon.<br />

However, there’s also a new Hiace<br />

on the market, and the two will<br />

dovetail in the light commercial<br />

segment.<br />

The new van is quite a departure<br />

from what we see as<br />

the traditional Hiace, its nose<br />

protrudes from the front, housing<br />

the engine which sits forward and<br />

under the windscreen line.<br />

However, don’t be fooled, the<br />

engine still sits longitudinally and<br />

drives through the rear wheels,<br />

Toyota haven’t yet been lured into<br />

making the Hiace front-wheeldrive<br />

like some of its rivals.<br />

The newcomer arrives here in<br />

five variations, four of those are<br />

ZR specification, panel and glass<br />

vans, and a 10-seat mini bus.<br />

There’s also a long-wheelbase ZX.<br />

This evaluation encompasses<br />

the ZR glass van and the jumbo<br />

ZX, the latter is simply enormous<br />

• Price – Toyota Hiace ZR,<br />

$44,990 (ZX, $50,990)<br />

• Dimensions – Length,<br />

5265mm (5915mm); width,<br />

1950mm; height, 1990mm<br />

(2280mm)<br />

• Configuration – Fourcylinder,<br />

rear-wheel-drive,<br />

2755cc, 130kW, 450Nm,<br />

six-speed manual or<br />

automatic<br />

• Performance –<br />

0-100km/h, 10.1sec<br />

• Fuel usage – 7.5l/100km<br />

(8.4l/100km)<br />

at almost 6m, and although it was<br />

a single side door model only,<br />

those landing from September<br />

will have twin sliders, one on<br />

each side. The ZX’s cargo carrying<br />

space is massive, it’s a monster in<br />

terms of presence, it won’t fit into<br />

a standard car park space, and<br />

every time you are leaving the<br />

vehicle you need to be conscious<br />

of how much of the planet you are<br />

claiming. I took the ZX into the<br />

supermarket car park and had to<br />

use four parks so that it wouldn’t<br />

block any access ways.<br />

The ZR on the other hand, is a<br />

lot more manageable; at 5.2m it’s<br />

not quite so selfish, but the benefit<br />

of both variants is that the load<br />

space is cavernous.<br />

Generally I’ve been pretty lucky<br />

having load bearing vehicles<br />

coinciding with items that have<br />

needed to be transported. During<br />

my time with both Hiaces,<br />

I managed to use them both for<br />

carrying duties – green waste<br />

to the recycling centre and an<br />

unexpected shopping expedition<br />

TOYOTA HIACE: Short or long-wheelbase models.<br />

where my wife and I bought several<br />

bulky items of furniture, the<br />

latter devoured easily in the ZX.<br />

Apart from its voluminous<br />

cargo carrying space – 6200-litres<br />

(ZR) and 9300-litres (ZX) - the<br />

new Hiace stands out for its comparative<br />

high comfort levels, once<br />

you’re in either of the two front<br />

seats, bearing in mind it is a bit of<br />

climb up, support and cushioning<br />

is in abundance. There are<br />

also plenty of knick-knack trays,<br />

drink holders and pockets for all<br />

those essentials that the business<br />

operator would need in his/her<br />

daily travels.<br />

Along with a new look, the<br />

new Hiace also gets a new engine.<br />

It’s the 2.8-litre four-cylinder<br />

turbocharged diesel that first<br />

found its way here in Hilux three<br />

or four years ago. It stands out for<br />

its power, efficiency and smooth<br />

operation. A lot of the latter is<br />

attributed to its positioning out of<br />

the cabin proper, it must be said<br />

refinement in the new Hiace is<br />

remarkable.<br />

Power is rated at 130kW and<br />

450Nm, it needs those healthy<br />

outputs, even empty the Hiace is<br />

tubby at 2235kg (ZR) and 2305kg<br />

(ZX), but I’m sure that with a load<br />

on there will be plenty of power<br />

for all applications.<br />

On the subject of figures, one<br />

of the most important to any<br />

owner/operator will be that of<br />

fuel usage. From my experience<br />

of this power plant in the Hilux<br />

it is a bit of a fuel miser. Toyota<br />

claims a 7.5-litre per 100km<br />

(38mpg) combined cycle average<br />

for the ZR in manual form, as<br />

tested. The ZX automatic is listed<br />

at 8.4l/100km (34mpg) which I<br />

would expect to be quite achievable<br />

depending on driving style.<br />

Yes, it must also be remembered<br />

that six-speed manual and<br />

automatic transmission options<br />

are still offered in the Hiace<br />

range, the ZR was a manual, and<br />

for those who like manuals I can<br />

safely report it is a beauty with<br />

slick shifts and clutch action that<br />

is absolutely beautiful.<br />

I took both test vehicles west<br />

using much the same routes each<br />

time, on the long straight roads<br />

to Hororata and home through<br />

Dunsandel and Lincoln. The Hiace<br />

can’t be regarded as a dynamic<br />

handling vehicle, sure it’s ability<br />

in a corner is satisfactory, but you<br />

do need to be mindful the live<br />

axle rear suspension isn’t set-up<br />

for speed, and with its height of<br />

just below and above 2m in both<br />

cases, there is a lot of gravitational<br />

transition.<br />

Nevertheless, it’s fair to say steerage<br />

is informative, the driver is<br />

always aware of the nuances driving<br />

a van creates. Those who will<br />

do long journeys each day won’t be<br />

tasked, the Hiace has dignity and<br />

consequence ease of use.<br />

It must also be said the new<br />

model has a five-star Australasian<br />

New Car Assessment Program<br />

safety rating. That’s mega in this<br />

part of the market, and is a tribute<br />

to the engineers who have created<br />

a model to such a high safety<br />

standard.<br />

After The Flood<br />

by Kassandra Montag<br />

It’s 2031 and the world has been utterly transformed. After<br />

years of rising floodwaters, all that’s left is an archipelago<br />

of mountaintop colonies surrounded by a deep expanse of<br />

open water. Civilization as it once was is gone.<br />

Myra and her young daughter, Pearl, survive by fishing from<br />

their small boat, visiting small hamlets and towns on dry land<br />

to trade for supplies and information. The sole purpose of Myra’s existence is<br />

to protect Pearl, while mourning the loss of her oldest daughter, Row, who was<br />

kidnapped during the last terrifying storm surge.<br />

For eight years Myra has searched for the girl that she knows, in her bones and<br />

her heart, still lives. In a violent confrontation with a stranger, Myra hears that<br />

Row was last seen in a far-off encampment of raiders on the coast of what used<br />

to be Greenland. Throwing aside her usual caution, she and Pearl embark on a<br />

perilous voyage into the icy northern seas to rescue her.<br />

Inside Out<br />

by Demi Moore<br />

Famed American actress Demi Moore at last tells her own story in a surprisingly<br />

intimate and emotionally charged memoir.<br />

For decades, Demi Moore has been synonymous with celebrity. From iconic film<br />

roles to high-profile relationships, Moore has never been far from the spotlight –<br />

or the headlines.<br />

Even as Demi was becoming the highest paid actress in Hollywood, however,<br />

she was always outrunning her past, just one step ahead of the doubts and<br />

insecurities that defined her childhood. Throughout her rise to fame and during<br />

some of the most pivotal moments of her life, Demi battled addiction, body image<br />

issues and childhood trauma that would follow her for years – all while juggling a<br />

skyrocketing career and at times negative public perception. As her success grew,<br />

Demi found herself questioning if she belonged in Hollywood, if she was a good<br />

mother, a good actress – and, always, if she was simply good enough.<br />

As much as her story is about adversity, it is also about tremendous resilience.<br />

In this deeply candid and reflective memoir, Demi opens up about her career<br />

and personal life. Inside Out is a story of survival, success, and surrender – a<br />

wrenchingly honest portrayal of one woman’s at once ordinary and iconic life.<br />

a day out at one of Canterbury’s largest events!<br />

Saturday 5 & Sunday 6 <strong>October</strong>, 10am – 5pm<br />

Horncastle Arena, Christchurch<br />

Door sales $10 | Kids under 12 free<br />

This year’s Women’s Lifestyle Expo will be the biggest yet with over 200 companies<br />

under one roof for one weekend. Pegged as the perfect girls’ day out, the show aims<br />

to include as wide of a range of companies as possible, so the expo is a great day out<br />

no matter what your interests are. Women are all different and their interests are so<br />

diverse, so while one woman may be interested in gourmet food the woman beside<br />

her may be more interested in booking a V8 Supercar drive, checking out the fashion<br />

sites or even planning a holiday.<br />

The show features artisan crafters exhibiting alongside national brands like Dilmah tea,<br />

Lorna Jane activewear and Suzuki. “It’s great on the weekend to see all the various<br />

women visit the show, from teenagers to grandmothers, mothers and daughters of<br />

all ages and friends simply enjoying each other’s company” says Renee Murray from<br />

NZME Events.<br />

The expo features lots of new companies this year with everything from fashion and<br />

accessories to organic products, delicious food, artisan crafts, unique businesses,<br />

eco-friendly products and so much more.<br />

Encouraging more<br />

women to join<br />

Only four percent of career firefighters<br />

and 16 per cent of volunteer<br />

firefighters are women but this is<br />

slowly changing, chairperson of<br />

Region Te Ihu Women’s Advisory<br />

Network and Timaru senior fire fighter<br />

Donna Lindsay said.<br />

She said the move from using the<br />

term firemen to firefighters has been a<br />

positive step in recognising the work<br />

women have been doing for years,<br />

and FENZ is beginning to promote the<br />

job to get more women involved.<br />

“A lot of them see the fitness side,<br />

especially the upper body strength, as<br />

a bit of a barrier.”<br />

“There has been, in Auckland and<br />

hopefully Christchurch, little boot<br />

camps in eight week blocks to help<br />

people get up to speed with their<br />

fitness and strength but that’s only a<br />

part of the job.”<br />

Lindsay said the work of the fire<br />

service is more community-based<br />

such as education at A&P shows and<br />

in schools, and supporting at call outs<br />

such as road traffic incidents.<br />

Some brigades also take on childcare<br />

volunteers to look after the firefighters<br />

children when they are called to a job.<br />

Most women would find something<br />

within Fire and Emergency that would<br />

make them want to join whether<br />

it’s team building, community work,<br />

talking – it’s not always fighting fires.”<br />

It’s a very rewarding job and we need<br />

the students and young people out<br />

there to realise it is a possibility when<br />

they start looking at careers.”<br />
