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 />

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 />
and you’ve just got to give it everything<br />
you’ve got, I love it.”<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 />

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 />

events like these to build<br />
the towns “brand” as more<br />
of a destination.<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 />

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 />

along a block of flats.<br />

the wheels fell off (figuratively)<br />

by the time my cousin arrived a<br />

about enough of the day.<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.
