in port<br />
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 />

I WILL<br />

REVIEW ALL COUNCIL EXPENDITURE<br />
þ Income and expenditure needs to be reviewed<br />
with urgency. The Council needs to comprehensively<br />
review how it manages assets to avoid soaring debt.<br />
INNER CITY DEVELOPMENT<br />
þ Central City residential developments are creating<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 />

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 />

road cones<br />
remain on<br />

in Sumner,<br />
businesses<br />
are pleased<br />
that disruptive<br />

using heavy<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 />
Rutledge<br />
new wharf, but in the meantime,<br />
we need to do some repairs on the<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 />
Christchurch NZ, The Antarctic<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 />
alcohol-free cafe built on<br />
the former Godley House<br />
site<br />
SLOWER:<br />
The Banks<br />
Peninsula<br />
Community<br />
Board<br />
approved<br />
a move to<br />
make the<br />

controls on<br />

I SUBMITTED for the Godley<br />
House site. I said we needed<br />
another version of Godley House<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 />

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 />

News journalist Matt<br />
Salmons has become a<br />
stay-at-home dad. We<br />
follow his journey weekly.<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 />
to relax, press pause and take a<br />
moment to “enjoy a cuppa.”<br />
“With one-in-five mums<br />
experiencing postnatal depression<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 />

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 />

in Fire and Emergency Service<br />
