Peninsula<br />

board chair<br />

makes bid<br />

for better<br />

pay rates<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

TORI PEDEN is sick of seeing her<br />

colleagues get paid $6 an hour for<br />

the workload they carry.<br />

The newly-elected Banks<br />

Peninsula Community Board<br />

chairwoman wants to request<br />

better pay for its members by<br />

writing a letter to<br />

the Remuneration<br />

Authority.<br />

Ms Peden<br />

received the same<br />

income during<br />

her last term as<br />

a member, and<br />

now wants to<br />

present a case Tori Peden<br />

that the current<br />

remuneration model “doesn’t<br />

make sense.”<br />

The remuneration model is set<br />

by population, so community<br />

boards with bigger populations<br />

get better remuneration.<br />

New board members are<br />

currently set to receive $9864 and<br />

Ms Peden will receive $19,729 as<br />

chairwoman.<br />

As members work about 20<br />

hours a week, they would receive<br />

roughly $120 a week after tax.<br />

We’re getting ready for a busy<br />

tourist season in Akaroa<br />

Here’s what we’re doing to support the township and community<br />

through the busy summer tourist and cruise ship season.<br />

Managing traffic flows<br />

to improve safety and efficiency – especially when many people are<br />

on the move.<br />

Trialling changes to our traffic plans for<br />

cruise ship days<br />

such as monitoring bus idling and bus parking, and asking tour operators<br />

to arrive closer to pick-up times to avoid congestion. We’ll make further<br />

changes if needed.<br />

Opening new public toilets at Place de la Poste<br />

and installing new signage at Akaroa Wharf to direct visitors to the<br />

nearest facilities.<br />

Maintaining public spaces and parks<br />

including emptying litter bins in Akaroa and Little River.<br />

Installing six solar-powered Bigbelly rubbish bins<br />

at key spots around Akaroa that take five times more rubbish than<br />

standard bins. They have smart sensors to detect when they need<br />

to be emptied and some also have free public wifi.<br />

Distributing freedom camping information<br />

and we’ll also be out and about monitoring freedom<br />

campers throughout the summer.<br />

Repairing Akaroa Wharf<br />

so it remains open for commercial<br />

and recreational activities. Concept plans<br />

for the new wharf are being developed<br />

and we will be seeking public feedback<br />

on the designs next year.<br />

Vandals target historic jetty<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

VANDALS HAVE struck the<br />

historic Governors <strong>Bay</strong> jetty just<br />

as a rebuild project was due to<br />

begin.<br />

Over the weekend, a small fire<br />

was lit at the end of the jetty,<br />

wooden pillars were broken and<br />

the fence at its<br />

entrance was<br />

damaged.<br />

The attack<br />

came just after<br />

the Governors<br />

<strong>Bay</strong> Jetty Restoration<br />

Trust<br />

Louisa Eades<br />

bought the<br />

150-year-old<br />

structure off the city council for<br />

$1 on Wednesday so it could<br />

take control of a $2.7m rebuild.<br />

It has been closed since a<br />

post-earthquake engineering<br />

inspection in 2011 found it was<br />

unsafe.<br />

Work will start in late<br />

February or early March,<br />

with the jetty expected to be<br />

reopened to the public late next<br />

year.<br />

Trust secretary Louisa<br />

Eades said it was lucky the<br />

damage would not cause any<br />

setback.<br />

She said there appeared to<br />

be two separate attacks – the<br />

fire was lit during the middle<br />

tree trouble?<br />

WRECKED: The fence at Governors <strong>Bay</strong> jetty<br />

was targeted in one of two acts of vandalism<br />

over the weekend. Planks of wood on the<br />

jetty were also set alight . ​<br />

•If you have any information relating to the incidents, email the trust on savethejetty@<br />

gmail.com or phone police on the non-emergency number, 105<br />

of the day on Saturday and the<br />

rest of the damage happened<br />

afterwards.<br />

The fire was extinguished by<br />

the Governors <strong>Bay</strong> Volunteer<br />

Fire Brigade using buckets of<br />

water they carried down the<br />

300m jetty.<br />

“The next thing we will do is<br />

make it as hard as possible for<br />

people to get onto the jetty, but<br />

it won’t delay anything.”<br />

Deputy Mayor and councillor<br />

Andrew Turner, who officiated<br />

the sale last week, said he was<br />

The city council agreed to<br />

transfer ownership to the trust<br />

in 2016 so it could restore the<br />

for the remaining cost of the<br />

restoration.<br />

“I was super stoked that<br />

all my training over the years<br />

has paid off. It’s been one of<br />

my goals for a couple of years, so<br />

I was really happy, that<br />

message definitely made that day<br />

way better,” said de Rose.<br />

“It’s my ultimate dream to<br />

represent my country and my<br />

sport and it’ll be awesome to be<br />

in that environment with other<br />

New Zealand athletes as well.<br />

“I’m extremely happy, I’ve<br />

always wanted to compete there<br />

and the ice is meant to be great<br />

in Switzerland.”<br />

The Shirley Boys’ High School<br />

student began speed skating at<br />

four-years-old, after his mother<br />

saw an advert in a newsletter.<br />

Since then de Rose has been<br />

obsessed, thinking of little else<br />

outside of skating.<br />

“I just had a thing for it ever<br />

since I started and was constantly<br />

wanting to go back, he said.<br />

“At the start it was more casual<br />

until I was about eight then I<br />

started competing in Australia<br />

and that made me want to progress<br />

and be competitive.<br />

“It’s so tense and so strategic<br />

By comparison, Halswell-<br />

Board members will receive<br />

$24,580 and their chair $49,160.<br />

Ms Peden said she would like<br />

members and her own pay as<br />

chairwoman<br />

to be in “at<br />

least the same<br />

ball park” as<br />

the inner-city<br />

community<br />

boards.<br />

The current<br />

pay checks<br />

may change<br />

soon, as the<br />

Fran Wilde<br />

newly-elected<br />

city council<br />

is set to vote on the allocation<br />

of a $1,843,200 governance pool<br />

before the end of the year.<br />

The city councillors can decide<br />

to allocate funds from the pool<br />

towards the remuneration of<br />

community board members.<br />

However, Ms Peden said she is<br />

not holding her breath.<br />

“It’s not a given. We understand<br />

that it’s there for their delegations<br />

and increased role capacities.”<br />

She believes the community<br />

board has a good case to put<br />

forward to the Remuneration<br />

Authority.<br />

Its representatives look after<br />

two harbours and the board<br />

covers the largest geographical<br />

area out of seven community<br />

boards.<br />

There is still one vacant<br />

seat on the community board<br />

after it failed to attract enough<br />

candidates in the October local<br />

body elections.<br />

Low pay has also been cited<br />

as one of the reasons five former<br />

board members chose to retire<br />

after the last term.<br />

“We do feel it’s because of the<br />

remuneration doesn’t match<br />

the workload. Not many people<br />

have the time or capacity to put<br />

themselves forward.”<br />

Ms Peden said having better<br />

remuneration would encourage<br />

better democracy around the<br />

table.<br />

Ideas mooted to attract<br />

tourists to Lyttelton<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

A PLAN to stop cruise<br />

ship visitors heading<br />

straight from Lyttelton into<br />

the city is starting to gain<br />

momentum.<br />

Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong> Information<br />

Centre manager<br />

Ruth Targus has started<br />

working on ideas put<br />

forward at a community<br />

meeting on the potential<br />

effects of a new cruise<br />

berth, which is set to open<br />

in October.<br />

Lyttelton Port Company’s<br />

berth will allow cruise<br />

ships which cater to more<br />

than 5000 passengers and<br />

2000 staff to dock.<br />

At the meeting in<br />

August, residents and<br />

businesses raised concerns<br />

over the possibility tourists<br />

will not stay in the port<br />

town and will instead go<br />

directly into the central<br />

city.<br />

There has now been<br />

confirmation of a shuttle<br />

bus which will bring<br />

cruise ship passengers to<br />

the information centre<br />

on Oxford St, as well as<br />

coaches to the city, so that<br />

She has sent out a notice<br />

to Lyttelton businesses<br />

Seawall to<br />

be repaired<br />

MAINTENANCE repairs are<br />

needed along the Beach Rd seawall<br />

in Akaroa.<br />

The city council is seeking<br />

public’s opinion on options to fix<br />

the structure, which was built<br />

from unreinforced stone between<br />

1901-1904.<br />

Over time, wave action of the sea<br />

has been scouring out mortar and<br />

sediments between the rocks and<br />

creating voids in behind them.<br />

This has resulted in damage or<br />

slumping to the pavement behind<br />

the sea wall, and in some areas<br />

holes or pavement collapse is starting<br />

to appear.<br />

Due to the deterioration some<br />

areas have had to be temporarily<br />

fenced for pedestrian safety.<br />

The preferred method of repair<br />

is a ‘stone revetment toe’, where a<br />

rock base is added to the front of<br />

an existing wall. Other options<br />

include a rock base, concrete bags,<br />

gabion basket enclosure, sheet<br />

piling, concrete spraying, stone<br />

masonry and grouting.<br />

City council staff plan to carry<br />

out the repairs during winter 2020<br />

so that it is completed before the<br />

busy summer visitor period.<br />

in the hope that someone would<br />

take her home.<br />

Luckily for Sapphire, her<br />

soon-to-be owner was familiar<br />

in dealing with challenging<br />

canines.<br />

Jennifer Hooper’s other dog,<br />

Stark, was adopted into her family<br />

from a chequered, violent past.<br />

Stark arrived at Christchurch<br />

Bull Breed Rescue after a vet<br />

who was supposed to euthanise<br />

him believed he deserved a better<br />

life.<br />

After being rescued from a<br />

gang house during a police raid<br />

in Porirua, Stark was found with<br />

cigarette burns on his body and<br />

severely damaged ears.<br />

Said Woolston’s Mrs Hooper:<br />

“We’ve always had dogs but for<br />

better use of a word, we were reasonably<br />

snobby about it, we had<br />

expensive dogs. We had a bichon<br />

frise and a siberian husky.<br />

“But, never again. When you<br />

see the difference in rescue dogs,<br />

what they bring into your family,<br />

we would only go with rescue dogs<br />

again in the future.”<br />

Mrs Hooper’s latest challenge<br />

was to build a relationship<br />

between Sapphire and Stark,<br />

so Sapphire could be adopted,<br />

almost three years after CBBR<br />

picked her up in 2016, when she<br />

was 11-months-old.<br />

CBBR founder Abbey van der<br />

Plas said little was known about<br />

her life before the shelter.<br />

Said Mrs Hooper: “We got<br />

Sapphire home after a very long<br />

process of training. When I say<br />

training, that’s me being trained<br />

in how to look after her.”<br />

Sapphire’s ‘quirks’ meant<br />

Mrs Hooper visited the shelter<br />

weekly for six weeks to become<br />

familiar with her, with the help<br />

of one of the volunteers, Denise<br />

Balloch. Public outings were<br />

also required to get Sapphire<br />

comfortable with being around<br />

strangers.<br />

Then later, Mrs Hooper would<br />

bring Stark along and eventually<br />

they went on ‘doggie dates’ and<br />

had ‘doggie sleepovers.’<br />

“I knew it was a massive commitment<br />

to take on a dog like<br />

that. My work was really flexible<br />

and I was able to go in later, so<br />

I could be at the shelter. I was<br />

at the shelter for about three or<br />

four hours per week. Then later I<br />

PALS:<br />

Jennifer<br />

Hooper with<br />

Sapphire<br />

(left) and<br />

Stark.<br />

began picking Sapphire up also,<br />

two times a week.’’<br />

After five months of this,<br />

Sapphire’s adoption papers were<br />

signed, late last month.<br />

She has been living with her<br />

new family, Mrs Hooper, her<br />

husband and two sons, aged 19<br />

and 21.<br />

“She still sleeps in a crate, for<br />

routine. But whoever is up first<br />

in the morning will let her out<br />

and she will hop into bed with<br />

whoever is still sleeping,’’ she<br />

said.<br />

HOW MANY people out there<br />

did anything for Halloween last<br />

week?<br />

Last year we didn’t do anything,<br />

but as Vittoria is a bit<br />

bigger now I wanted to at least<br />

try take her door-to-door in<br />

costume.<br />

You know, to get lollies for me.<br />

Got to keep her health in mind.<br />

I formulated a plan with my<br />

cousin – we would take her<br />

along the other flats on the<br />

property before heading over to<br />

a kids’ Halloween party at the<br />

Phillipstown Community Hub.<br />

On Wednesday night Vittoria<br />

and I had stayed in Waikuku<br />

Beach. Normally, I would have<br />

spent the next day out there,<br />

taking Vittoria to the beach or<br />

playground, before heading<br />

home after her noon nap.<br />

However, this time after a<br />

morning beach walk, I’d got a<br />

real bee in my bonnet on the idea<br />

of getting her home before her<br />

nap. Why? No idea. To see if I<br />

could, I guess?<br />

Even though I knew I would<br />

be cutting it fine, I raced about<br />

gathering up our things – forgetting<br />

a bunch in the process – and<br />

rushed out the door with a pretty<br />

lively, smiley toddler.<br />

As we made our way along<br />

State Highway 1, Vittoria babbled<br />

on about the things going by,<br />

sang along to some songs and<br />

TRICK OR TREAT: The wee<br />

pumpkin collecting lollies<br />

along a block of flats.<br />

made positive noises that my<br />

flimsy plan was going to work.<br />

Midway along Marshland Rd<br />

the wheels fell off (figuratively)<br />

when she yawned, got comfy and<br />

promptly fell asleep.<br />

No toddler ever has had a normal<br />

nap after a 20min car nap, so<br />

by the time my cousin arrived a<br />

few hours later, Vittoria had had<br />

about enough of the day.<br />

grumping as I got her costume<br />

together, she graciously let me<br />

put the massively cute pumpkin<br />

petticoat on. She seemed to<br />

get a positivity boost when she<br />

realised the point of the costume<br />

was to go outside and doorknock<br />

for lollies.<br />

While she was happy, she was<br />

still bone tired by the time we<br />

arrived at the community hub.<br />

She managed to be excited to see<br />

all the other kids, stare in amazement<br />

at some of great costumes<br />

on display, listen to some of the<br />

classic kids’ Halloween anthems<br />

(Ghostbusters of course) and<br />

enjoy some popcorn.<br />

But it didn’t last long. Less<br />

then 10 minutes after arriving<br />

she’d burst into tears after briefly<br />

losing sight of me,was not at<br />

all interested in joining in any<br />

games and had attempted to just<br />

kind of walk home twice.<br />

Honestly, nothing is cuter than<br />

a tiny pumpkin-person boldy<br />

just strolling off. But the hint was<br />

dropped and I decided to throw<br />

in the towel when she started<br />

almost nodding off in my arms.<br />

I think I’ll avoid any racing<br />

against nap times in future.<br />

Rugby Folklore by Matt Elliott<br />

From superstitions to send-offs, All Black nick-names to on-field<br />

battles: Rugby Folklore is a miscellany of stories, quotes, and<br />

facts that are part of the fabric of New Zealand rugby.<br />

New Zealand has played, celebrated and commemorated rugby<br />

like no other country. We took to the game in extraordinary<br />

numbers in the late nineteenth century. Rugby was the game for all.<br />

It became a sport in which names like Grizz, Tiny, Guzzler, Pinetree,<br />

Rimu, and the Paekakariki Express have made us feared and revered as the<br />

greatest rugby nation on earth.<br />

Rugby Folklore is a book about matches won and lost, rivalries built and<br />

legends made. From on-field controversies, rugby songs, and what makes<br />

an All Black to Hika’s great try, ‘Bring Back Buck’ and wind at Athletic Park so<br />

strong that Don Clarke watched a ball kicked for touch sail back over his head.<br />

Covering the earliest days of club-rugby through to the modern-day All Blacks,<br />

this collection of interesting facts, unforgettable quotes and tall tales will you<br />

leave you looking on our national game with pure unbridled pride ... and a<br />

little disbelief!<br />

‘Remember that rugby is a team game; all 14 of you make sure you pass the<br />

ball to Jonah.’ - Fax to the All Blacks during the 1995 RWC<br />

The Double Dangerous Book For Boys<br />

by Conn Iggulden<br />

Spark your imagination, forge your own adventures and unearth long-lost<br />

skills.<br />

In this long-awaited follow-up to his much-loved bestseller, written with<br />

his sons Cameron and Arthur, Conn Iggulden presents a brand-new<br />

compendium of cunning schemes, projects, tricks, games and tales of<br />

extraordinary courage.<br />

Whether it’s building a flying machine (keep your temper with this one) or<br />

learning how to pick a padlock (or your own front door, but not someone<br />

else’s), discovering our forgotten explorers and the world’s greatest speeches,<br />

or mastering the lauded task of solving a Rubik’s cube, The Double<br />

Dangerous Book for Boys is the ultimate companion to be cherished by<br />

readers and doers of all ages.<br />

Pottery group’s changing shape<br />

BAY HARBOUR<br />

PAGE <strong>13</strong><br />

Mt Pleasant Pottery Group co-chairwoman Renate<br />

Galetzka writes about how the group has evolved since it<br />

was founded 59 years ago<br />

WHEN THE Mt Pleasant<br />

Pottery Group was founded in<br />

1960, it was known as the Betty<br />

Crocker Potters.<br />

This was because members<br />

used commercially-supplied<br />

materials from Smith and<br />

Smith, rather than digging<br />

them out of the ground as purist<br />

potters did.<br />

The group once operated out<br />

of a hut across the road from the<br />

Mt Pleasant Community Centre.<br />

As the club expanded over the<br />

years, it typically had an active<br />

membership of about 60 to 80<br />

and exhibitions were big affairs.<br />

Over time, the club acquired<br />

considerable assets, including<br />

a gas kiln, salt-firing kiln and a<br />

large wood-firing kiln.<br />

Believed to be the oldest<br />

pottery club in Christchurch,<br />

the group celebrated its 50th<br />

birthday before the earthquakes.<br />

The February 22, 2011, quake<br />

rendered the former Mt Pleasant<br />

Community Centre clubrooms<br />

unsafe, so for a number of years<br />

it was a very difficult time.<br />

Class activities continued to<br />

a limited extent in a member’s<br />

private studio in association<br />

with workshops held as part of<br />

the Otago Polytechnic Diploma<br />

in Ceramic Arts distance<br />

learning.<br />

The group will forever be<br />

thankful to Shona Clarkson for<br />

keeping these activities going.<br />

Finally in 2016, a then very<br />

small but dedicated group<br />

of members relocated to the<br />

Phillipstown Hub as it was<br />

unable to secure rooms in<br />

the newly-rebuilt community<br />

centre.<br />

Members occupied a<br />

classroom-sized space and a<br />

kiln shed.<br />

Since then, the club has<br />

steadily been re-growing and<br />

presently runs five regular<br />

classes, children’s classes, club<br />

days, raku firings, weekend<br />

workshops and more.<br />

One of the regular highlights<br />

used to be the yearly exhibition<br />

at the Mt Pleasant Community<br />

Hall with an out-of-town<br />

exhibitor who would open the<br />

evening.<br />

The group had not held an<br />

exhibition for a number of<br />

years, but felt it was time to<br />

reintroduce it to the yearly<br />

calendar to celebrate the group’s<br />

achievements, its creative<br />

members and a beautiful craft.<br />

The exhibition was held<br />

last month at the Mt Pleasant<br />

Community Centre with guest<br />

potter Neil Hey, who put his<br />

works on show.<br />

PROGRESS: Renate Galetzka giving a demonstration of engobe<br />

decoration at the Mt Pleasant Pottery Group.<br />

Readers respond to the <strong>Bay</strong><br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> News article about<br />

the historic Sumner tram<br />

shelter on the corner of main<br />

Rd and Nayland St which has<br />

become a safety hazard<br />

Toni Pengelly – As a Sumner<br />

resident and historian, I would<br />

very much oppose the removal of<br />

the tram shelter. The structure has<br />

both historical and aesthetic value<br />

to the community. We have lost so<br />

many of Christchurch’s historical<br />

assets that to pull such a structure<br />

down for the want of council<br />

funds would be a loss to future<br />

generations. Please keep this issue<br />

in focus in your paper.<br />

Samuel Zelter – It would be<br />

a shame to see the tram shelter go<br />

due to simple neglect and minor<br />

damage. However, until I read<br />

the article, I had no idea it was a<br />

tram shelter at all. Some signage<br />

is an absolute must, and perhaps<br />

something like tables to bring<br />

people back to using the shady and<br />

reclusive artefact of history.<br />

John Belcher – I would<br />

like to see the old tram shelter<br />

restored.
