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

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

Peden to head community board<br />
• By Jess Gibson<br />
TORI PEDEN has been sworn<br />
in as the new chairwoman of the<br />
Banks Peninsula Community<br />
Board.<br />
The Little River resident of 18<br />
years is “nervous and excited”<br />
to take on a range of projects<br />
coming up over the next three<br />
years.<br />
The main issue she wants to<br />
push hard for is establishing a<br />
destination management plan<br />
that ensures communities are<br />
looked after during tourism<br />
seasons.<br />
Ms Peden was elected to the<br />
position during an inaugural<br />
meeting on Monday, with<br />
Tyrone Fields re-elected to serve<br />
as deputy chairman for another<br />
term.<br />
She will fill the shoes of former<br />
chairwoman Pam Richardson,<br />
who retired from the position<br />
last term along with four other<br />
board members.<br />
Ms Peden is one of three to<br />
return to the community board,<br />
along with Mr Fields and Deputy<br />
Mayor and city councillor<br />
Andrew Turner.<br />
She believes continuity and<br />
experience helped secure her<br />
spot as chairwoman over<br />
newcomers Howard Needham,<br />
Jamie Stewart and Nigel<br />
Harrison. She said she is excited<br />
to learn the dynamics of the new<br />
community board.<br />
“New personalities come on<br />
board and also new strengths,<br />
which we are looking forward to<br />
working with,” she said.<br />
The community board<br />
had three women last term<br />
but now Ms Peden is the only<br />
female representing Banks<br />
Peninsula.<br />
However, she said having<br />
three women in the “fantastic”<br />
governance team will help to<br />
balance it out.<br />
The Linwood-Central-<br />
Heathcote Community Board<br />
also has its inaugural meeting on<br />
Monday.<br />
Sally Buck has been<br />
unanimously re-elected as<br />
chairwoman and Alexandra<br />
Davids will take on the role of<br />
deputy chairwoman for the first<br />
time.<br />
Governors <strong>Bay</strong> jetty likely to sell today for $1<br />
• By Jess Gibson<br />
THE GOVERNORS <strong>Bay</strong> Jetty is<br />
scheduled to be sold today for $1.<br />
The historic, 300m wooden<br />
structure has been closed since<br />
2011 after a post-earthquake<br />
inspection found it to be unsafe.<br />

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

A community planting day will<br />
be held as part of the Mahoenui<br />
bush restoration project on<br />
Saturday. Mahoe-nui is a patch of<br />
forest in one of the gullies above<br />
Sumner Valley. If you wish to get<br />

The Dark Island<br />
Leprosy in New Zealand and the Quail Island<br />
Colony by Benjamin Kingsbury<br />
From 19<strong>06</strong> to 1925 Quail Island, in Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong>, was the site<br />
of New Zealand’s leprosy colony. The colony began by accident, as it<br />
were, after the discovery of a leprosy sufferer in Christchurch. As further<br />
patients arrived from across the country, it grew into a controversial<br />
and troubled institution – an embarrassment to the Health Department,<br />
an object of pity to a few, a source of fear to many.<br />
This remarkable narrative reveals a little-known aspect of New<br />
Zealand’s past, shedding light on the treatment of some of society’s<br />
most marginal, unfortunate and isolated people. Written in lucid,<br />
compelling prose, The Dark Island heralds the arrival of a significant<br />
historical voice.<br />
Me Elton John<br />
Sir Elton John, CBE, is a multi-award winning solo artist who has achieved<br />
38 gold and 31 platinum or multi-platinum albums, has sold more than<br />
300 million records worldwide, and holds the record for the biggest-selling<br />
single of all time, ‘Candle in the Wind 1997’. In August 2018 Elton was<br />
named the most successful male solo artist in the Billboard Hot 100 chart<br />
history, having logged 67 entries, including nine Number 1s and 27 Top<br />
10s. Elton launched his first tour in 1970 and since then has performed<br />
over 4,000 times in more than 80 countries. When not recording or<br />
touring, Elton devotes his time to a number of charities, including his own<br />
Elton John AIDS Foundation, which has raised over $300 million and<br />
funded programmes across four continents in the twenty-four years it has<br />
existed. He is married to David Furnish, and they have two sons. Me is his<br />
first and only official autobiography.<br />
The Fabulous Bouvier Sisters<br />
The Tragic and Glamorous Lives of Jackie and Lee<br />
by Sam Kashner: Conversation Starters<br />
Jackie was more traditional, private and quiet, while Lee explored<br />
the modern and experimental. Lee was the flirtatious, outgoing and<br />
fun-loving sister who loved to be in the limelight. The irony was that<br />
it was Jackie who became the famous one and Lee was relegated as<br />
the lady-in-waiting. Lee was original in her style, Jackie copied from<br />
her and took the credit from the applauding international media, which<br />
made Lee even more jealous. The Fabulous Bouvier Sisters peeks into<br />
the private and public lives of these two women, showing their close<br />
yet complicated relationship marked by rivalry and jealousy. The book<br />
is written by Sam Kashner and Nancy Schoenberger who also wrote<br />
about other famous personalities in their books A Talent for Genius<br />
and Furious Love. Kirkus Reviews lauds the book’s “explorations of the<br />
truths and fictions of Camelot [that] continue to mesmerize.”<br />
Big Ideas for Small Houses<br />
By Catherine Foster<br />
A look at a range of small houses around New Zealand, and the<br />
strategies the owners used to get a toehold in the tight housing market.<br />
From building a secondary dwelling on an existing family section, to<br />
tiny houses on pocket handkerchief pieces of land, these approaches<br />
to housing will give ideas and inspiration to all wondering how it can<br />
be possible to own a first home in the twenty-first century. Each entry<br />
begins with a statement about the strategy the owner used to achieve a<br />
home of their own. The houses range in size from 100 square metres<br />
right down to a very cosy 34 square metres! Beautifully photographed,<br />
and including plans and costs, the houses presented are in Puhoi,<br />
west and north Auckland, Raglan, Tamahere, Taupiri, Whanganui,<br />
New Plymouth, Wellington and Christchurch.<br />

Man with bow and arrow<br />
sought after lamb shot<br />
• By Jess Gibson<br />
POLICE WANT to know<br />
whether reports of a man<br />
seen carrying a bow and<br />
arrow on the Port Hills<br />
are linked to an incident<br />
involving a lamb being shot<br />
with a crossbow bolt.<br />
Two people were driving<br />
on Summit Rd near<br />
Godley Head Park when<br />
they found a lamb with an<br />
arrow through the front of<br />
its body on October 23 – it<br />
was euthanised the following<br />
day.<br />
Following the incident,<br />
the SPCA launched an<br />
investigation and has since<br />
received a call from someone<br />
who has seen a man<br />
in the area carrying a bow<br />
and arrow.<br />
An SPCA spokeswoman<br />
said the caller reported<br />
having seen the man on “a<br />
couple of occasions,” most<br />
recently at the beginning of<br />
September.<br />
The SPCA’s inspectorate<br />
alerted police to the complaints.<br />
Said Senior Sergeant Roy<br />
Appley: “The police are<br />
very concerned about this<br />
sort of activity and if the<br />
‘The police are very<br />
concerned about this<br />
sort of activity’<br />
– Roy Appley<br />
two are linked we would<br />
want to know about it immediately.”<br />
He said if anyone has any<br />
knowledge of the incident<br />
or sees any person carrying<br />
a bow and arrow in the<br />
vicinity of the Port Hills, to<br />
phone police straight away.<br />

the SPCA<br />

‘It was the highlight of our lives’<br />
BAY HARBOUR<br />

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

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

Said Ms Toner: “We would<br />
like it to be given priority. It’s a<br />
precious piece of equipment and<br />
one of the few historic treasures<br />
we have left on the waterfront.<br />
Said Linwood-<br />

Toner<br />
“If for whatever reason there is<br />
a change of time line, it is much<br />
better to keep them informed.”<br />
Meanwhile, there are concerns<br />
a 97-year-old tram shelter in<br />
Sumner has become a safety<br />
hazard. City council staff will<br />
consult with the community<br />
board and other interested<br />
parties on whether to remove or<br />
repair the structure at the corner<br />
of Main Rd and Nayland St.<br />

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

SCULPTOR Christine Davey was<br />
born and raised in Governors<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> and has always loved its<br />
prominent birdlife.<br />
That love has inspired a display<br />
of ceramic birds titled Feathers<br />
in Focus which will be exhibited<br />
alongside photographs at Stoddart<br />
Cottage Gallery in Diamond<br />
<strong>Harbour</strong> throughout <strong>November</strong>.<br />
Her home environment influences<br />
Davey’s art, whether it is<br />
the clay she uses, the design, or<br />
the firing process which may involve<br />
seaweed, shells or saltwater.<br />
Davey is a ‘raku’ clay specialist<br />
as it suits her sculptural forms.<br />
Said Davey: “I enjoy the excitement<br />
of the firing where your<br />
pieces are removed at a thousand<br />
degrees centigrade from a special<br />
kiln and placed into combustibles.<br />
At this stage the piece is so<br />
hot it is translucent, like molten<br />
glass.<br />
“The metallic results are unpredictable<br />
but sometimes stunning,<br />
which keeps you returning to try<br />
for perfection.”<br />
One of her raku pieces was<br />
purchased by the Canterbury<br />
Museum in 2010.<br />
Davey is a former member of<br />
Mount Pleasant Pottery Group<br />
ON DISPLAY:<br />
Christine Davey’s<br />
ceramic birds<br />
titled Feathers<br />
in Focus will be<br />
exhibited alongside<br />
photographs<br />
at Stoddart<br />
Cottage Gallery in<br />
Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
throughout this<br />
month. <br />
Ceramic birds on display<br />
and current member of Halswell<br />
Pottery Group.<br />
She helped establish a small<br />
pottery group in Governor’s <strong>Bay</strong><br />
which has been running for 20<br />
years.<br />
Davey has entered several exhibitions<br />
and has many pieces in<br />
private collections, including the<br />
Peninsula Art Auction <strong>2019</strong>.<br />
Stoddart Cottage Gallery at 2<br />
Waipapa Ave is the birthplace<br />
of well-known Canterbury<br />

It is open to the public every<br />

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

Your Local Views<br />
Answering your questions about boating safety<br />
Navigational safety officer<br />
Gary Manch responds to<br />
readers’ feedback and<br />
offers up some safety<br />
advice<br />
IN MY LAST article, I asked for<br />
feedback about boating and it<br />
was great to hear from you.<br />
One question was sent<br />
in on the identification of<br />
vessels under the operating<br />
requirements of the Navigation<br />
Safety Bylaw 2016, relating to<br />
belonging to a sporting body as<br />
approved by the harbourmaster.<br />
The sporting clubs are listed on<br />
the Environment Canterbury<br />
website as required by the bylaw.<br />
It’s probably appropriate at this<br />
stage to remind you that your<br />
boat does require identification,<br />
as per the bylaw.<br />
For those of you with<br />
Pirate’s Corner<br />
powerboats on a trailer,<br />
including jet skis, you will<br />
require the registration number<br />
of your trailer on either side of<br />
the vessel above the waterline<br />
visible to the naked eye from<br />
50m away and the size of the<br />
lettering must be at least 90mm<br />
high. See clause 20 of the<br />
Navigation Safety Bylaw 2016 for<br />
more specific details or email me<br />
with your questions.<br />
Another reader found the title<br />
of my column offensive due to its<br />
name ‘Pirate’s Corner’ because<br />
pirates are not very nice people<br />
A postcard quality day out<br />
YOU REALLY have to love<br />
spring in Christchurch.<br />
Beyond the fact it’s such a<br />
relief to see the colour green<br />
after weeks of living under<br />
the world’s biggest summer’s<br />
“coming soon” sign, that is<br />
Christchurch, there is a lot more<br />
to do in the city.<br />
On Monday, Laura and I<br />
took advantage of the perfect<br />
sunshine and temperature to<br />
take Vittoria to the Big Band<br />
Picnic in Victoria Square.<br />
We had taken her last year and<br />
the music moved her before she<br />
could even walk. She held herself<br />
up on her pram and started, for<br />
want of a better word, twerking.<br />
So we were confident she<br />
would enjoy it and were not<br />
disappointed.<br />
There were so many jazz hands<br />
and sways being thrown about<br />
from Vittoria that Laura and I<br />
could eat an entire pizza without<br />
fending off the hungering<br />
mouth.<br />
Possibly the fact that it was<br />
a mushroom pizza may have<br />
helped, but I doubt it.<br />
Her dance moves and obvious<br />
enjoyment were super cute.<br />
The music and the atmosphere<br />
even stopped her running off, in<br />
spite of her normal tendencies,<br />
whenever we want to sit down<br />
and relax in a public area.<br />
The only thing that distracted<br />
her from the music for any<br />
length of time were a couple of<br />
dogs, her new favourite animal.<br />
To celebrate how well it was all<br />
going, we decided to take part<br />
in a century-old Christchurch<br />
tradition and get a treat from Ice<br />
Cream Charlie.<br />
So far we’d managed to<br />
tick off two big ticket items from<br />
the list of stuff to do in the city<br />
VITTORIA<br />
& Matt<br />
IN SYNC:<br />
Vittoria<br />
busting out<br />
the moves at<br />
the Big Band<br />
Picnic.<br />
when it’s sunny. To round out<br />
the day we made the daring<br />
call to skip Vittoria’s afternoon<br />
nap and head to the Sign of the<br />
Takahe to get the trifecta. And<br />
a coffee. Fortunately the gamble<br />
paid off and the wee trooper<br />
held her own on all of 10<br />
minutes of pram-sleep, lasting<br />
through the coffees and even a<br />
walk up to the nearby lookout.<br />

Salmons has become a<br />
stay-at-home dad. We<br />
follow his journey weekly.<br />
If you have a boating<br />
question, email<br />
gary.manch@ecan.govt.nz<br />
and cause all sorts of mayhem<br />
and harm.<br />
So where do I go with this?<br />
Do we change the name of the<br />
column or keep it as it is? When<br />
I named the column, I was<br />
looking for a light-hearted title<br />
that would draw attention, and<br />
to be honest, I have never heard<br />
of a pirate giving safety advice<br />
before, so it was intended to be<br />
a bit tongue-in-cheek. However,<br />
please email me if you think<br />
the title should stay the same or<br />
change, I am happy to open it up<br />
to discussion.<br />
Lastly, during <strong>November</strong>, there<br />
are two nationwide initiatives<br />
from Maritime New Zealand<br />
to promote boating safety –<br />
Water Safety Month and Safer<br />
Boating Week. These promotions<br />
have the full support of ECan’s<br />
harbourmaster’s office. The<br />
purpose of these promotions<br />
is to bring home the fact that<br />
being on or in the water has its<br />
own risks. We want to remind<br />
people to make sure they think<br />
about the risks when boating and<br />
ensure they have the appropriate<br />
safety gear for the task at hand.<br />
This might seem like a simple<br />
message, but sadly we have had<br />
18 recreational boating deaths<br />
this year and we don’t want any<br />
more. So remember: Prepare<br />
your boat, check your gear and<br />
know the rules – get home safe<br />
this summer.<br />

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

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

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

Put the melted butter, dark<br />
cane sugar, eggs and vanilla<br />
extract into a medium-sized<br />
bowl and beat together for<br />
several minutes on high speed<br />
until thick and creamy.<br />
Reduce the speed and<br />
gradually add the mashed<br />
bananas, beating until well<br />
combined. Make a well in the<br />
centre of the dry ingredients and<br />
stir in the banana mixture a third<br />
at a time, mixing well after each<br />
addition.<br />
Tip into the prepared tin<br />
(either loaf tin or cake tin) and<br />
smooth the top.<br />
Bake until golden brown – it<br />
should be firm to the touch<br />
and a skewer inserted into the<br />
centre should come out clean<br />
(about 50-55 minutes). You may<br />
need to cover the bread with<br />
baking paper for the last 15min<br />
of cooking if it is browning too<br />
much.<br />
Remove from the oven and<br />
cool on a wire rack for about<br />
20min. Slide a knife between<br />
the side of the tin and the bread<br />
to loosen it. Invert the tin on to<br />
a wire rack, remove the baking<br />
paper, turn right way up and<br />
leave to cool.<br />
To serve the loaf, cut it into<br />
thick slices and toast if you wish.<br />
Cuts into 14-15 slices.<br />
To serve as a cake, use ice<br />
with lemon icing or leave plain.<br />
Without the icing, the banana<br />
flavour is more pronounced.<br />
Cuts into 16-20 slices.<br />

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

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