Residents
frustrated
by tram
shelter
delays
• By Jess Gibson
RESIDENTS ARE frustrated they
will have to wait until the end of
December to use the Moncks Bay
tram shelter.
City council transport
operations manager Steffan
Thomas told Bay Harbour News
in April the 85-year-old shelter on
Main Rd was likely to be repaired
and re-opened before the end of
September.
However, he now says further
design work on the maintenance
and strengthening of the shelter
is required, which will then need
to be signed off by the city council
heritage team.
In January, the Redcliffs
Residents Association was
critical of the progress made on
the shelter after the city council
closed it the month before due to
earthquake vulnerability.
Now association chairwoman
Christine Toner says she is “very
disappointed” city council staff
did not keep their word to have it
finished by September.
She said the association was not
told about the delay.

GREAT MEMORIES today from Jim
Wilson (see page 1) of his time with Sir
Edmund Hillary.
Jim, shares some top yarns with reporter
Sophie Cornish which coincides with the
just released movie Hillary: Ocean to Sky.
Jim, a mountaineer himself, recalls being in a Dunedin flat
when he met Sir Ed.
“I can remember our mutual friend, Michael, brought him to
our flat in Dunedin and forever after he (Sir Ed) always claimed
we fed him a whole sack of potatoes and a whole side of mutton,
but he was exaggerating, it was only a quarter of mutton.
“We were hugely in awe of Ed, but he just immediately put us
at ease. He was a lovely, friendly man.”
It sums them all up, really.

Peden to head community board
• By Jess Gibson
TORI PEDEN has been sworn
in as the new chairwoman of the
Banks Peninsula Community
Board.
The Little River resident of 18
years is “nervous and excited”
to take on a range of projects
coming up over the next three
years.
The main issue she wants to
push hard for is establishing a
destination management plan
that ensures communities are
looked after during tourism
seasons.
Ms Peden was elected to the
position during an inaugural
meeting on Monday, with
Tyrone Fields re-elected to serve
as deputy chairman for another
term.
She will fill the shoes of former
chairwoman Pam Richardson,
who retired from the position
last term along with four other
board members.
Ms Peden is one of three to
return to the community board,
along with Mr Fields and Deputy
Mayor and city councillor
Andrew Turner.
She believes continuity and
experience helped secure her
spot as chairwoman over
newcomers Howard Needham,
Jamie Stewart and Nigel
Harrison. She said she is excited
to learn the dynamics of the new
community board.
“New personalities come on
board and also new strengths,
which we are looking forward to
working with,” she said.
The community board
had three women last term
but now Ms Peden is the only
female representing Banks
Peninsula.
However, she said having
three women in the “fantastic”
governance team will help to
balance it out.
The Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Community Board
also has its inaugural meeting on
Monday.
Sally Buck has been
unanimously re-elected as
chairwoman and Alexandra
Davids will take on the role of
deputy chairwoman for the first
time.
Governors Bay jetty likely to sell today for $1

THE GOVERNORS Bay Jetty is
scheduled to be sold today for $1.
The historic, 300m wooden
structure has been closed since
2011 after a post-earthquake
inspection found it to be unsafe.

Now the Governors Bay Jetty
Restoration Trust is buying it
from the city council to enact an
agreement and take ownership of
the jetty so it can start its repair
project.
Deputy Mayor and city councillor
Andrew Turner will be at
the jetty today to officiate the sale
during a ceremony set to be held
at 11am.
Due to the deteriorated state of
the piles, the sub-structure needs
replacing.
The trust will raise the deck
height by 1m to allow for
sea-level rise caused by climate
change.
Over the years, money to
rebuild the jetty has been raised
by the community in many
ways – including music festivals,
calendar sales, art sales and
Christmas gift packs.
In Brief
RESCUES DURING TRAINING
Twelve rescues were made by
lifeguards from the Sumner Surf
Life Saving Club on Sunday.
Three of the rescues were made
during a lifeguard course, where
25 new members were being
trained for the season to gain
their lifeguard award. Nine
rescues were then made by
lifeguards who were in inflatable
rescue boats training to complete
their IRB driver award.
MILITARY EXERCISE
The New Zealand Defence Force
will be conducting an exercise in
the Port Hills from Tuesday to
Friday next week. The exercise
will involve up to 120 personnel
from Burnham Military Camp. It
will start at Halswell Quarry with
overnight stops at Mt Vernon,
Taylors Mistake and Godley Head
and will finish at Sumnervale
Reserve. For more information,
phone Major Aaron Williamson
on 021 920 375.

The Dark Island
Leprosy in New Zealand and the Quail Island
Colony by Benjamin Kingsbury
From 1906 to 1925 Quail Island, in Lyttelton Harbour, was the site
of New Zealand’s leprosy colony. The colony began by accident, as it
were, after the discovery of a leprosy sufferer in Christchurch. As further
patients arrived from across the country, it grew into a controversial
and troubled institution – an embarrassment to the Health Department,
an object of pity to a few, a source of fear to many.
This remarkable narrative reveals a little-known aspect of New
Zealand’s past, shedding light on the treatment of some of society’s
most marginal, unfortunate and isolated people. Written in lucid,
compelling prose, The Dark Island heralds the arrival of a significant
historical voice.
Me Elton John
Sir Elton John, CBE, is a multi-award winning solo artist who has achieved
38 gold and 31 platinum or multi-platinum albums, has sold more than
300 million records worldwide, and holds the record for the biggest-selling
single of all time, ‘Candle in the Wind 1997’. In August 2018 Elton was
named the most successful male solo artist in the Billboard Hot 100 chart
history, having logged 67 entries, including nine Number 1s and 27 Top
10s. Elton launched his first tour in 1970 and since then has performed
over 4,000 times in more than 80 countries. When not recording or
touring, Elton devotes his time to a number of charities, including his own
Elton John AIDS Foundation, which has raised over $300 million and
funded programmes across four continents in the twenty-four years it has
existed. He is married to David Furnish, and they have two sons. Me is his
first and only official autobiography.
The Fabulous Bouvier Sisters
The Tragic and Glamorous Lives of Jackie and Lee
by Sam Kashner: Conversation Starters
Jackie was more traditional, private and quiet, while Lee explored
the modern and experimental. Lee was the flirtatious, outgoing and
fun-loving sister who loved to be in the limelight. The irony was that
it was Jackie who became the famous one and Lee was relegated as
the lady-in-waiting. Lee was original in her style, Jackie copied from
her and took the credit from the applauding international media, which
made Lee even more jealous. The Fabulous Bouvier Sisters peeks into
the private and public lives of these two women, showing their close
yet complicated relationship marked by rivalry and jealousy. The book
is written by Sam Kashner and Nancy Schoenberger who also wrote
about other famous personalities in their books A Talent for Genius
and Furious Love. Kirkus Reviews lauds the book’s “explorations of the
truths and fictions of Camelot [that] continue to mesmerize.”
Big Ideas for Small Houses
By Catherine Foster
A look at a range of small houses around New Zealand, and the
strategies the owners used to get a toehold in the tight housing market.
From building a secondary dwelling on an existing family section, to
tiny houses on pocket handkerchief pieces of land, these approaches
to housing will give ideas and inspiration to all wondering how it can
be possible to own a first home in the twenty-first century. Each entry
begins with a statement about the strategy the owner used to achieve a
home of their own. The houses range in size from 100 square metres
right down to a very cosy 34 square metres! Beautifully photographed,
and including plans and costs, the houses presented are in Puhoi,
west and north Auckland, Raglan, Tamahere, Taupiri, Whanganui,
New Plymouth, Wellington and Christchurch.
Home Work
A Memoir of My Hollywood years by Julie Andrews
In this follow-up to her critically acclaimed and bestselling memoir
Home, the enchanting Julie Andrews picks up her story with her arrival
in Hollywood, sharing the career highlights, personal experiences and
reflections behind her astonishing career, including such classics as
Mary Poppins, The Sound of Music, Victor/Victoria and many others.
Told with her trademark charm and candour, Julie Andrews takes us
on a rare and intimate journey into an astonishing life that is funny,
heartbreaking and inspiring.

Man with bow and arrow
sought after lamb shot
• By Jess Gibson
POLICE WANT to know
whether reports of a man
seen carrying a bow and
arrow on the Port Hills
are linked to an incident
involving a lamb being shot
with a crossbow bolt.
Two people were driving
on Summit Rd near
Godley Head Park when
they found a lamb with an
arrow through the front of
its body on October 23 – it
was euthanised the following
day.
Following the incident,
the SPCA launched an
investigation and has since
received a call from someone
who has seen a man
in the area carrying a bow
and arrow.
An SPCA spokeswoman
said the caller reported
having seen the man on “a
couple of occasions,” most
recently at the beginning of
September.
The SPCA’s inspectorate
alerted police to the complaints.
Said Senior Sergeant Roy
Appley: “The police are
very concerned about this
sort of activity and if the
‘The police are very
concerned about this
sort of activity’
– Roy Appley
two are linked we would
want to know about it immediately.”
He said if anyone has any
knowledge of the incident
or sees any person carrying
a bow and arrow in the
vicinity of the Port Hills, to
phone police straight away.
SERIOUS:
Police and
the SPCA
are seeking
information
relating to a
lamb which
was shot by
an arrow on
the Port Hills.
“We would treat the
carriage of any weapon in
a public place as absolutely
serious and would respond
immediately.”
If you see any person
carrying a weapon on
the Port Hills, phone 111
immediately.
•If you have any
information to report
regarding the incident,
phone the SPCA on
349 7057 or police on
the non-emergency
number, 105.

‘It was the highlight of our lives’
BAY HARBOUR

•From page 1
“But he was exaggerating, it
was only a quarter of mutton,”
Mr Wilson said.
“We were hugely in awe of Ed,
but he just immediately put us
at ease. He was a lovely, friendly
man. We were mountaineers and
he was the first mountaineer who
had made the first ascent of Everest
(1953). He was very famous.”
The very next year the pair,
who soon became close friends,
embarked on their first expedition
together to Nepal – Sir Ed’s
schoolhouse expedition.
“He would persuade young
mountaineers to come with him
to Nepal. Well, he didn’t persuade
us, he invited us and we would
leap at the chance.”
The movie, starring both Mr
Wilson and Sir Ed, showcases
and recounts their most dangerous
expedition, navigating the
length of the Ganges, a 2500km
river which flows through India
and Bangladesh, then climbing a
peak above the river’s headwaters.
But it’s not the first time
film-maker Michael Dillion has
explored the subject. In 1979,
Dillion released From the Ocean
to the Sky, based on the experiences
he and the crew had in
1977 during Sir Ed’s Ocean to
Sky expedition.
The re-made film weaves in the
original footage, while the men
still alive from the expedition,
now in their 60s, 70s and 80s,
recount the events.
When approached by Dillion
about the re-make, Mr Wilson,
now 82, admits he thought Dillion
was crazy.
“He interviewed all us survivors,
I thought it was a crazy idea.
We old folk can hardly remember
our names, let alone what happened
43 years ago. But when
prompted, I could remember
virtually everything. It was the
highlight of our lives, with Ed,
driving jet boats up this sacred
river in India,” Mr Wilson said.
With barely any training, Sir
Ed took Mr Wilson as one of the
HIGHLIGHTS: Jim Wilson
(driving boat above) on
the Ganges River with
expedition members
including Sir Edmund
Hillary. (Left) – Mr Wilson

daughter who were

jet boat drivers for the trip.
“Only Ed would decide it was a
good idea to take a novice jet boat
driver. Ed liked to have some of
his mates along, rather than just
experts. Despite the fact nine
years before I had sunk a boat
of his in Nepal, he still chose me
again. He was very loyal.”
Nine years earlier Mr Wilson
had misread a wave and drove
one of Sir Ed’s jet boats into the
river bed, causing it to overturn.
“That halved the fleet and put
the whole expedition at risk.
Feeling very sheepish, I crawled
up the riverbank and went to
apologise to Ed and all he said
was: ‘C’est la vie.’ Not a word of
incrimination.”
The movie also features scenes
of Sir Ed visiting the crash site
where his wife Louise and daughter
Belinda were killed in a plane
crash near Kathmandu in 1975.
Sir Ed blamed himself for the
disaster.
Mr Wilson has lived in
Redcliffs for 54 years with his
wife Ann. He is now retired and
spends his time with his grandchildren,
playing tennis and
e-biking. “It’s a wonderful period
of life,” he said.

“If for whatever reason there is

better to keep them informed.”
Meanwhile, there are concerns
a 97-year-old tram shelter in
Sumner has become a safety
hazard. City council staff will
consult with the community
board and other interested
parties on whether to remove or
repair the structure at the corner
of Main Rd and Nayland St.
Depending on which option is
chosen, funding for work would
need to be requested in the next

LESSONS: Environmental scientist Kirsty Brennan gives
Mt Pleasant School pupils Matthew Marshall and Holly
Crooks directions on how to survey the stream.
Pupils learn about aquatic eco-systems
• By Jess Gibson
MT PLEASANT School pupils got
stuck in during a project to help
improve water quality at Drayton
Reserve Stream.
Groups in years 5 and 6 headed
out with teachers and EOS Ecology
staff last week to carry out
a comprehensive survey of our
stream under the “nature agents”
programme.
The initiative aims to provide
schools and children with the
tools and the knowledge to understand
aquatic eco-systems in their
areas.
GRENADIER
Preliminary results from the
survey, which was held over
Wednesday and Thursday, were
mixed.
Good aspects included water
temperature, pH levels, canopy
cover and bank and riparian vegetation
cover.
The poor ones included water
clarity, variety and numbers of
aquatic invertebrates, algae bed
cover, aquatic plants, silt bed cover,
silt depth and water velocity.
Pupils will now analyse
results and produce conclusions
and suggestions for stream
improvements.

SCULPTOR Christine Davey was
born and raised in Governors
Bay and has always loved its
prominent birdlife.
That love has inspired a display
of ceramic birds titled Feathers
in Focus which will be exhibited
alongside photographs at Stoddart
Cottage Gallery in Diamond
Harbour throughout November.
Her home environment influences
Davey’s art, whether it is
the clay she uses, the design, or
the firing process which may involve
seaweed, shells or saltwater.
Davey is a ‘raku’ clay specialist
as it suits her sculptural forms.
Said Davey: “I enjoy the excitement
of the firing where your
pieces are removed at a thousand
degrees centigrade from a special
kiln and placed into combustibles.
At this stage the piece is so
hot it is translucent, like molten
glass.
“The metallic results are unpredictable
but sometimes stunning,
which keeps you returning to try
for perfection.”
One of her raku pieces was
purchased by the Canterbury
Museum in 2010.
Davey is a former member of
Mount Pleasant Pottery Group
ON DISPLAY:

and do your bit

The Redcliffs
Residents
Association
has launched
an ecovillage
initiative in
response to
the climate
and ecological emergency.
Member Dave Bryce
encourages awareness of
sustainable recreation
TO ADDRESS the climate and
ecological emergency, we all
need to reduce the extent of
fossil fuel-assisted recreational
pursuits and increase the extent
of “natural powered” recreation.
We will also need to reduce
activities which adversely impact
on the environment and ecosystems
in other ways.
These actions will also give
us a cleaner environment, more
exercise, and will be better for
our general health and probably
easier on expenses.
The range of options is still
large and can include walking,
tramping, running, orienteering,
geocaching, climbing, kayaking,
paddling, rowing, sailing, surfing
and swimming, to name a
few.
A tip is to think about how you
travel to do your sport – is it possible
to avoid driving to the start
of the activity?
Maybe you can walk or bike,
or perhaps car pool so that
the emissions per person are
reduced.
Biking to your local gym
or tennis court can be a great
warm-up activity.
If you are going for a walk,
run, bike etc, perhaps you can
design a loop from your home
and even via your friends’ houses
so that no emissions occur for
the exercise.
Also, consider events which
start and finish at the same
place, rather than different
places, so that extra vehicle travel
can be avoided.

Answering your questions about boating safety
Navigational safety officer
Gary Manch responds to
readers’ feedback and
offers up some safety
advice
IN MY LAST article, I asked for
feedback about boating and it
was great to hear from you.
One question was sent
in on the identification of
vessels under the operating
requirements of the Navigation
Safety Bylaw 2016, relating to
belonging to a sporting body as
approved by the harbourmaster.
The sporting clubs are listed on
the Environment Canterbury
website as required by the bylaw.
It’s probably appropriate at this
stage to remind you that your
boat does require identification,
as per the bylaw.
For those of you with
Pirate’s Corner
powerboats on a trailer,
including jet skis, you will
require the registration number
of your trailer on either side of
the vessel above the waterline
visible to the naked eye from
50m away and the size of the
lettering must be at least 90mm
high. See clause 20 of the
Navigation Safety Bylaw 2016 for
more specific details or email me
with your questions.
Another reader found the title
of my column offensive due to its
name ‘Pirate’s Corner’ because
pirates are not very nice people
A postcard quality day out
YOU REALLY have to love
spring in Christchurch.
Beyond the fact it’s such a
relief to see the colour green
after weeks of living under
the world’s biggest summer’s
“coming soon” sign, that is
Christchurch, there is a lot more
to do in the city.
On Monday, Laura and I
took advantage of the perfect
sunshine and temperature to
take Vittoria to the Big Band
Picnic in Victoria Square.
We had taken her last year and
the music moved her before she
could even walk. She held herself
up on her pram and started, for
want of a better word, twerking.
So we were confident she
would enjoy it and were not
disappointed.
There were so many jazz hands
and sways being thrown about
from Vittoria that Laura and I
could eat an entire pizza without
fending off the hungering
mouth.
Possibly the fact that it was
a mushroom pizza may have
helped, but I doubt it.
Her dance moves and obvious
enjoyment were super cute.
The music and the atmosphere
even stopped her running off, in
spite of her normal tendencies,
whenever we want to sit down
and relax in a public area.
The only thing that distracted
her from the music for any
length of time were a couple of
dogs, her new favourite animal.
To celebrate how well it was all
going, we decided to take part
in a century-old Christchurch
tradition and get a treat from Ice
Cream Charlie.
So far we’d managed to
tick off two big ticket items from
the list of stuff to do in the city
VITTORIA

Picnic.
when it’s sunny. To round out
the day we made the daring
call to skip Vittoria’s afternoon
nap and head to the Sign of the
Takahe to get the trifecta. And
a coffee. Fortunately the gamble
paid off and the wee trooper
held her own on all of 10
minutes of pram-sleep, lasting
through the coffees and even a
walk up to the nearby lookout.
•Former Bay Harbour
News journalist Matt
Salmons has become a
stay-at-home dad. We
follow his journey weekly.
If you have a boating
question, email
gary.manch@ecan.govt.nz
and cause all sorts of mayhem
and harm.
So where do I go with this?
Do we change the name of the
column or keep it as it is? When
I named the column, I was
looking for a light-hearted title
that would draw attention, and
to be honest, I have never heard
of a pirate giving safety advice
before, so it was intended to be
a bit tongue-in-cheek. However,
please email me if you think
the title should stay the same or
change, I am happy to open it up
to discussion.
Lastly, during November, there
are two nationwide initiatives
from Maritime New Zealand
to promote boating safety –
Water Safety Month and Safer
Boating Week. These promotions
have the full support of ECan’s
harbourmaster’s office. The
purpose of these promotions
is to bring home the fact that
being on or in the water has its
own risks. We want to remind
people to make sure they think
about the risks when boating and
ensure they have the appropriate
safety gear for the task at hand.
This might seem like a simple
message, but sadly we have had
18 recreational boating deaths
this year and we don’t want any
more. So remember: Prepare
your boat, check your gear and
know the rules – get home safe
this summer.

Why pick Linwood College?
Heathcote Ward
city councillor
Sara Templeton
writes about
the Linwood
College rebuild
and making it the
secondary school of choice
in the area
I WAS APPALLED to hear about
the arson at the Linwood College
site on Aldwins Rd last week.
While there has been no
disruption to classes, the fact
someone would set fire to the
old school will have absolutely
impacted students and staff.
Just a few days before, I had seen
the principal, Dick Edmundson,
speaking at the Future Sumner
meeting about the school, the
students and its plans. The school
is currently operating from at
the old Avonside Girls’ High site,
while Linwood is demolished and
completely rebuilt.
It’s an exciting time and
everyone I talk to is impressed
by the fact it is being designed
by Architectus, the same firm
behind Tūranga. The project is
fully school and ministry-led, not
a public or private partnership,
and the school has also chosen to
take a midway approach between
the old-style classrooms and the
newer, open plan learning spaces.
This will give a familiar feel
to the spaces, but still cater for
modern learning and technology.
Two years ago, after walking
around open nights at various
schools, we enrolled our eldest
child at Linwood. Few parents
from our area made the same
choice, so there were some raised
eyebrows and I have had many
conversations with parents about
how it has gone since then.
It wasn’t easy for her to
choose a school that none of
her friends were going to and
I’m so proud she did. She is
enjoying her high school years
and she is thriving. At end of
year Music Extravaganza, I
watched students show enormous
empathy and support for each
other as they performed their
NCEA assessment pieces,
some performing in front of an
audience for the first time.
I’m really looking forward
to seeing how Linwood
College progresses under Mr
Edmundson’s leadership, and
how the rebuild takes shape and
the community around it grows
strong.

Finn’s Fudge
and Mary Gray
Confections
THERE’S nothing more satisfying than sinking your teeth
into a decadently smooth and creamy piece of fudge and
savouring the flavour as it melts in the mouth.
That’s exactly how it is with Finn’s Fudge. It’s exquisite and
one could admit it’s almost impossible to stop at just one piece
and even more difficult to share!
“Our fudge has a wonderful mix of rich flavour and
luxurious texture that is made right here in Ferrymead from
natural ingredients and contains no preservatives or gluten,”
said Gary Price, co-owner.
But it is not only the ingredients that are important in
making such delicious fudge. The process plays a major role
in creating the right amount of flavour and achieving the
right texture. Exact timing and temperature requirements are
essential to providing a consistent and high quality product
and the team at Finn’s in Ferrymead are proud their handmade
process meets this standard.
“Because everything is precisely prepared and carefully hand
poured we are able to produce a traditional homemade style
fudge that ensures a beautiful ‘melt-in-the-mouth’ experience.
One piece is never enough!
They are also individually wrapped for freshness.”
“We sell boxes, bars and individual treats and, due to the
high quality of our products, our fudge is used for both
fundraising and Corporate Gifts,” said Gary.
As well as their wide selection of fudge comprising of
Chocolate, Choc Coconut, Choc Mint, Russian, Caramel Sea
Salt, Ginger, Manuka Honey, and NZ Kiwifruit, Finn’s Fudge
produce a range of boiled lollies and is also the home of highly
respected Mary Gray Confections.
Finn’s Fudge is currently available at New World, Fresh
Choice, Caltex and Mobil Garages and is served on Air New
Zealand regional flights. However you can also buy their
products direct, either online at www.finnsfudge.co.nz or visit
the Factory Shop in Ferrymead. The Factory Shop is open
every Friday from 11am - 2pm. Sorry no EFTPOS, cash sales
only.
Finn’s Fudge is a favourite treat for any occasion. Once tried,

What should you expect
from your agent?
Placing your property in the hands of a real estate agent
can be, and in fact should be, a huge decision. Your
property, whether its your family home or an investment
property, is often your number one asset. Consequently
there is a lot at stake so it’s not unreasonable to anguish
over who you should entrust with the responsibility of not
only presenting your home to the market, but who you
feel will provide a high level of service and is most likely
to achieve the best result. Without wanting to focus on
the negative, there’s a lot that can go wrong. The current
post-quake environment is still throwing a few curve
balls in regard to reports, repairs, and the expectations
and demands of insurers. Your agent needs to be well
versed and equipped with the knowledge and skills to
deal with this. Of course buyers also have an expectation
of full disclosure and transparency when it comes to
matters that may affect a decision to purchase. However,
above all, communication is still
the number one expectation of a
vendor/seller relationship. Or more
specifically, a lack of communication
is usually the biggest cause of
complaint. Sometimes things don’t
go quite as planned; some agents will shy away from
delivering bad news, afraid of letting their vendor down or
perhaps not wanting to own up to a mistake. As much as
we want everything to go well when a property is on the
market, sometimes it just doesn’t. Therefore, if you are
in the process of selecting an agent it’s probably a good
question to ask in the early stages, “when and how often
will you communicate with me?” and “What can I expect
from you regarding communication?”

Tasty Bites
This amazing banana
bread doesn’t crumble,
stays moist and freezes
well. It’s also the perfect
way to top off gnudi with
asparagus, which makes
for a tasty meal any time
of the day
Banana bread brilliance
Makes 14-15 slices
Ingredients
270g self-raising flour
½ tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp ground cloves
80g butter, melted
140g dark cane sugar
3 large eggs, size 7
1 tsp vanilla extract
450g very ripe bananas, weighed
without skin, mashed (4-5 large
bananas)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 170 deg C
on bake.
Sift the flour, baking soda,
cinnamon and cloves into a large
bowl and stir well to combine.
Set aside.
Put the melted butter, dark
cane sugar, eggs and vanilla
extract into a medium-sized
bowl and beat together for
several minutes on high speed
until thick and creamy.
Reduce the speed and
gradually add the mashed
bananas, beating until well
combined. Make a well in the
centre of the dry ingredients and
stir in the banana mixture a third
at a time, mixing well after each
addition.
Tip into the prepared tin
(either loaf tin or cake tin) and
smooth the top.
Bake until golden brown – it
should be firm to the touch
and a skewer inserted into the
centre should come out clean
(about 50-55 minutes). You may
need to cover the bread with
baking paper for the last 15min
of cooking if it is browning too
much.
Remove from the oven and
cool on a wire rack for about
20min. Slide a knife between
the side of the tin and the bread
to loosen it. Invert the tin on to
a wire rack, remove the baking
paper, turn right way up and
leave to cool.
To serve the loaf, cut it into
thick slices and toast if you wish.
Cuts into 14-15 slices.
To serve as a cake, use ice
with lemon icing or leave plain.
Without the icing, the banana
flavour is more pronounced.
Cuts into 16-20 slices.
Gnudi with asparagus
Serves 4
Ingredients
400g ricotta
2 eggs
1 egg yolk
120g freshly grated parmesan,
plus extra for serving
100g flour
1 tsp salt
freshly ground pepper
semolina flour
2 bunches asparagus, woody
Baking the ultimate banana bread
ends removed and cut into 3cm
pieces
50g butter
4 sprigs of thyme, marjoram or
basil
juice of ½ a lemon,
Directions
In a large bowl, mix together
ricotta, eggs, egg yolk, flour,
seasoning and parmesan cheese.
Mix to combine. Put into a
piping bag with large plain
nozzle.
Dust a tray heavily (5mm)
with semolina and pipe 2cmwide
tubes the length of the tray.
Continue until all the mix is used
and gently roll the tubes in the
semolina.
Chill for as long as possible (an
hour or overnight).
Bring a large pot of salted
water to the boil.
While the water is coming
to the boil, heat a large fry pan
with butter, add the herbs and
asparagus and cook until the
asparagus becomes tender (about
4min).
Cut the gnudi into 4cm
lengths, cook in boiling water.
When it rises to the top (about
3-4min) remove and drain.
Add them to the asparagus,
season, grate over plenty of
parmesan cheese and enjoy
immediately.

Every Day is Open Day
At the heart of our city since the founders laid the
first roads and planted the first trees, St Michael’s
has held dear those early aspirations and visions,
while unleashing our own dreams for a lofty future.
Indeed, for 168 years, St Michael’s has been
educating and nurturing the visionaries and
dreamers who
continue to shape our
city and the world
beyond. For our
young pupils have
limitless potential
to lead exciting and
generous lives, and we
have the responsibility
to educate and inspire
them, to encourage
every child to flourish
in mind, body and
spirit.
St Michael’s is a prep
school for girls and boys in Years
1-8. ‘Prep’ as in preparation for
secondary school, a foundation
for a fine life. For at the heart of St
Michael’s are the essential values of
Christian faith and good citizenship:
respect, integrity, community, faith,
hope and love.
An independent school education
at the primary level is a great gift.
Our classes are small, with year-groups of 20 pupils,
ensuring your child is an individual, well known by
staff and fellow pupils alike.
Traditional foundations in English and Maths are
assured. This academic rigour then underpins
our wider curriculums in History, Geography,
Science and Spanish.
IT literacy is taught,
not assumed, and
computer use is
measured. We like
teaching and talking to
our pupils!
A prep education
offers balance. St
Michael’s cultural and
sports’ programmes
further develop
your child’s
foundation, as
creativity and
problem-solving
come in many
forms. Specialist
art and music
classes are enjoyed
weekly. We have
three choirs,
and most pupils
participate in
instrumental or
speech & drama
lessons with our
ten itinerant staff.
Located in the
heart of the city,
opposite the
new Riverside
Farmers’ Market,
our extended
campus is
spectacular:
the Art Gallery
and Museum,
Tūranga, our new
central library,
and Hagley Park
are frequent
haunts.
Many of our parents now work in the thriving city
centre or Lincoln and Riccarton Road hubs, but
they live city-wide. They comment on the benefit of
knowing their children are in school nearby and the
convenience of popping over for an hour to catch a
performance or watch a race. With the new central
exchange only a block away, senior children arrive
by bus from all corners of the city.
You and your child are warmly welcome to discover
our purposeful, wholehearted and inclusive prep
school. Every day is open day, so please contact
registrar, Bec Hitchcock, to book your personal
tour: 03.379.9790.

High comfort levels in Honda CRV
CARS ARE always a great
conversation starter.
The other day a former
work colleague came into the
office meeting up with old
acquaintances. We had a bit of a
chat and he asked me what I had
driven lately, I responded, and
then asked what he was driving.
He answered by saying he was in
a company-supplied sport utility
vehicle but was anxious that it
would be replaced soon with a
sedan. He said he liked the SUV
and felt that a traditional sedan
wouldn’t measure up – literally.
That’s part of the reason why
the SUV market is so buoyant,
they are practical, functional and
mostly car-like to drive, it’s easy
to become attached to that type of
transport.
One of the models that kickstarted
the SUV revolution was
Honda’s CRV, that was around
1996, and since then it has gone
through several life-cycles and
facelifts. The CRV has just been
upgraded and there is now the
choice of a seven-seat version
which will excite the traditional
CRV buyer who has occasionally
craved for extra seats.
The CRV lands here in several
Motoring
Ross Kiddie
variations – starting at $33,990 and
ending at $48,990. Interestingly,
the five-seat S model, as evaluated,
gets a 2-litre, single-camshaft,
naturally-aspirated engine, and
while that’s not unusual in an
SUV, what is surprising is that
it is the only model in the range
that doesn’t get Honda’s new
turbocharged 1.5-litre engine that
has gained quite a reputation in
this part of the market.
As opposed to the four-wheeldrive
system of its stablemates,
the entry-level model is also
front-drive only, yet that would
suit me, I’m not big on off-theseal
travel, and if you treat it with
respect it will provide most of
the fundamentals mid-size SUV
buyers are looking for.
As you would expect from the
Honda manufacturing process, the
CRV is clinical in terms of interior
design, comfort and function. The
trim elements are high grade and
the specification level is high.
The CRV S is rated at 113kW
and 189Nm. Honda also claims
a 7.6-litre per 100km (37mpg)
combined cycle fuel usage rating.
That’s a healthy target and is
indicative of the Honda goal of
reducing fuel use. I saw that as
HONDA CRV: Several engine and driveline options.
a benchmark during my time
with the test car, and instead
of exploring power outputs I
concentrated on trying to meet
that average fuel use figure. I
couldn’t, but I did get close at
8.2l/100km (35mpg) with a
6l/100km (47mpg) figure sitting
at the 100km/h legal limit. The
engine is turning over at just
1800rpm at that speed, which isn’t
working hard, and that contributes
to the thrifty way in which it
operates.
Drive is channelled through a
continuously variable automatic
transmission. It allows the engine
to work at the area of maximum
efficiency, it draws on as much
torque as it can so that the engine
isn’t loaded unnecessarily.
Of course, there are drive modes
which the driver can choose for
each given journey. The default
mode is normal, but eco and sport
modes can be selected at will.
As mentioned, I didn’t explore
sport mode other than a short
highway burst, and it will stimulate
the engine so that it feels peaky
and responsive. The opposite
applies in eco mode, the throttle is
numb and dull; however, if you are
prepared for that, fuel savings in
that mode are generous.
I took the test car west, cruising
the long straight roads between
Coalgate and Dunsandel, the
CRV feels lithe yet involving
from behind the wheel. In S
specification it rides on 235/65
x 17in Good Year tyres and they
help contribute to the strong
steering feel and accurate corner
turn-in.
The CRV sits high at almost
1.7m so there is a bit of
gravitational movement over the
suspension, but as a by-product
of having a four-wheel-drive
• Price – Honda CRV S,
$33,990
• Dimensions – Length,
4596mm; width,
1855mm; height, 1679mm
• Configuration – Fourcylinder,
front-wheeldrive,
1998cc, 113kW,
189Nm, continuously
variable automatic.
• Performance –
0-100km/h, 8.8sec
• Fuel usage – 7.6l/100km
option, even the front-drive CRV
gets a fully independent set-up
underneath, and that has both ride
and handling benefits. Comfort
levels are extraordinarily high,
the suspension willingly absorbs
bumps and ruts, just floating over
uneven surfaces. This is one aspect
that the CRV excels in, it simply
has a magical ride.
Honda has had to work hard
to keep the CRV a desirable
purchase. There’s so much
competition in the mid-size SUV
market, but I’m pleased to report
that it is still a front-runner and
will constantly please those who
relate to all that it represents.
There’s also a model for all
budgets and each has significant
presence. Regular readers will
recall I’m not a big leather trim fan
and the cloth seat covering of the S
model really appeals to me. It’s that
ability to cater for all tastes that
will keep the CRV ticking over the
market for many years to come.

bylaws for Lyttelton Harbour
Tangata Tiaki/Kaitiakai for the Whakaraupō Mātaitai and the Rāpaki Mātaitai have proposed
bylaws that would; reduce recreational daily limits for a number of local fish and shellfish
species, close two small areas to cockle harvest to allow enhancement to occur, and prohibit
taking seaweed except karengo and wakame (Undaria).
The Whakaraupō Mātaitai and the Rāpaki Mātaitai, between them, cover most of Lyttelton Harbour.
The proposals follow surveys conducted by Te Tiaki Mahinga Kai (a customary research
and monitoring team based at the University of Otago) which indicate risk of decline and
overharvesting in these mātaitai. The bylaws relate only to recreational fishing as commercial
fishing is already prohibited with the mātaitai.
The proposed bylaws may be inspected at the MPI offices, Sir William Pickering Drive,
Christchurch and the Rāpaki Marae Office at 39 Rāpaki Drive, Governor’s Bay.
Or, on the Fisheries New Zealand web site:
www.mpi.govt.nz/fisheries-consultations
You can make submissions on either or both proposed sets of bylaws by emailing
fmsubmissions@mpi.govt.nz
Please put “Mātaitai bylaws proposal” in the subject line of your email.
While we prefer email, you can also post your written submission to:
