Clock Tower
damage
extensive
PHOTO: IAN KNOTT
THE NEW Brighton Clock
Tower needs more extensive
repairs than originally planned.
While contractors have been
working on the restoration of
the earthquake damaged clock
tower, they have found the
concrete is in a worse condition
than initial engineering investigations
suggested.
The same situation has been
found at the Scarborough Clock
Tower, which is also undergoing
repairs caused by earthquake
damage.
City council head of parks
Andrew Rutledge says more extensive
testing has revealed the
need for extra repairs to both
clock towers.
“Both clock towers are about
90 years old and were built at
a time when concrete was a
different quality than we would
expect today,” Mr Rutledge said.
“It was common local
practice in the early 1900s to
mix cement with small stones,
most likely sourced from rivers
around Canterbury. Being
round, the cement didn’t stick
to the stones properly and over
time has created hollow spaces
and cavities inside the concrete,
known as “honeycombing”.
Moisture from the elements
and decades of exposure to
a harsh coastal environment
has penetrated these areas and
caused significant corrosion to
the structural steel.
“There are concerns over the
state of the concrete at the New
Brighton Clock Tower, where
large areas of ‘honeycombing’
have been discovered,” he said.
“We have found issues with
the concrete on the underside
of the first floor slab at Scarborough,
which supports the upper
tower.
“To ensure the seismic
strength of these towers, we
have to replace all the defective
concrete and add reinforcement.
“We need to carry out full
repairs to secure the longevity
of both heritage clock towers.”
The landmark clock towers,
which date back to the 1930s,
have been fenced since early last
year.
Both suffered structural
damage during the 2010-11
earthquakes.
New Brighton requires the
most repairs but the clock faces
on both towers also need work.
Restoration work on the
Scarborough clock tower will
continue until February next
year, while we expect repairs to
the New Brighton clock tower
to be completed by March.

Reg’s Royal cooking buddy
• By Sophie Cornish
REG STEDMAN is usually
lively and full of jokes – but the
92-year-old was left speechless
when he was joined by a special
sous chef during his cooking
class.
The Duchess of Cornwall visited
the cooking course Mr Stedman
was on during her visit with Prince
Charles to Christchurch.
Everyone on the course had
been vetted by police prior to the
visit, so he knew Camilla would
be there.
But Mr Stedman was a little
more than surprised when he
was placed next to Camilla as
they prepared a bean salad.
Mr Stedman, who hails from
Essex in England, and came to
New Zealand in 1958 to marry
his pen pal, was lost for words
standing next to Camilla.
“Backward in coming forward,”
he said.
“It never dawned on me, I was
surprised, I thought ‘what have I
done to deserve this?
“I’m quite a retiring person, it
wouldn’t have bothered me if I
had been standing behind two or
three people.”
Mr Stedman shook Camilla’s
hand and spoke with her about
her farm in Gloucestershire, and
whether the food was organic.
“In hindsight, I realised all eyes
were probably on me because I
was with the knife!,” he said of
the security staff which follow
the Royals.
After the cooking demonstration
at the Salvation Army building in
the central city, Camilla helped
to launch the new Senior Chef
cookbook, Easy Recipes for One
or Two.
Senior Chef, is a free programme
for older people living
alone or with one other person
and is funded by the Canterbury
District Health Board and
Pegasus Health.
It has a focus on connecting
the community, combating loneliness
and providing a new sense
of purpose.
Active ageing is a key focus of
Camilla’s work, who said she was
“delighted” to be at the event,
during their six-day visit of New
Zealand.
“It’s a real pleasure to be for
once surrounded by people my
age. I’m feeling a lot better and
I’m so impressed by everything
you’re doing here.
“I do think it is so important as
you grow older to be able to cook.
MASTERCHEF: Reg Stedman was lost for words when the Duchess of Cornwall appeared beside
him at his cooking class.
PHOTO PEGASUS HEALTH
This school will re-energise older
people to like cooking again, and
eating good food for your body
and your mind is vitally important
as you get older,” she said.
• GO ALONG: The Senior Chef programme is free and runs
classes through-out the city and in Rangiora, Kaiapoi, Lincoln,
Ashburton and Kaikoura. Contact Pegasus Health for more
information.

Cycling trip for grandad
• By Matt Slaughter
WILLIAM HICKFORD’S
grandad Roy Pemberton cycled
the length of New Zealand to
raise money for St John New
Zealand seven years ago.
Now, William will do the same
to raise money for people like Mr
Pemberton, who was diagnosed
with dementia earlier this year.
The year 13 Cashmere High
School student will be joined by
his friend since childhood, fellow
Cashmere student Holly Ffowcs
Williams on the South Island leg
of the ride.
They have started a Givealittle
page aiming to raise $10,000 for
Alzheimer’s New Zealand and
are calling themselves Team
Wolly.
Said William: “Since he [Mr
Pemberton] got diagnosed with
dementia this year, I thought I
just wanted to help support him
and what our family’s going
through because it’s quite a
tough time so I just wanted to
give back to him by raising funds
for Alzheimers New Zealand.”
William will start his ride at
Cape Reinga on December 28
and bike about 100km a day until
January 23, when he estimates
he will finish the about 3000km
journey to the bottom of the
South Island.
Holly will meet William on
January 8 in Picton and they will
ride to the finish line together.
Holly said she was inspired
to join William on part of his
journey after seeing the effects
of Alzheimer’s and dementia
first-hand in a volunteer role she
does.
“In the past few years, I’ve
been a volunteer at a Nurse

cycling across the country to raise money for Alzheimers New
Zealand and people like William’s grandad, Roy Pemberton
(above).
Maude Hospice Shop in
Christchurch and we get a lot
of customers who are from
lots of different retirement villages
across Christchurch and
a few have come in with family
members that have had dementia
and Alzheimer’s, so it’s just been
really heartbreaking to see, she
said.
“I think putting my love
cycling towards something like
this, it’s the way I can [help].”
Holly said the ride will be hard
work but the cause she and William
are riding for will make it
worth it.
“The most of done in one day
has been about 112km and some
days we’re doing at least 100km
with a good radical climb, so it’s
going to be really mentally challenging
but I think you’ve got to
remember why you’re doing it.”
William said his grandad and
granny Hilda Pemberton are
appreciative of what he is setting
out to do.
“My granny’s very proud of me
obviously trying to help support
him [Mr Pemberton] as much
as possible. My grandad’s just
pretty happy that I’m riding a
road bike instead of a mountain
bike. He’s always being trying to
convert me to road bikes so he’s
quite stoked that I’m doing it on
a road bike for him.”
William said what he is doing
would also not be possible without
support from his mum and
dad Kim and Jon Hickford, who
have helped organise the ride.

Children’s tale will appeal to all ages
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
A HIGH-PROFILE cast of
performers have been brought in
to re-tell the magical children’s
tale of The Wind in the Willows.
Playing the complex, starring
role of Toad is Cameron Rhodes
in The Court Theatre’s summer
season of the production.
While he claims he has never
had a “big break” in his more
than 30-year
career, Rhodes
has appeared
in major films
associated to
New Zealand
including The
Cameron
Rhodes
Lord of The
Rings and The
Chronicles of
Narnia: The
Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
.
But while Rhodes, 52, said he
loves film, “there is something
about theatre you can’t compare
it to.”
“A play like this (The Wind
in the Willows) you can do on
screen but it wouldn’t be the
same,” he said.
Published as a children’s
novel in 1908 by Scottish novelist
Kenneth Grahame, the story,
adapted by Alan Bennett, focuses
on four anthropomorphised
animals including Toad.
The show tells the tale of Toad

destroying the serenity of the
English countryside with a motor
vehicle.
His obsession with racing
expensive cars puts the future of
his and his friend’s home in peril
when it leads to wicked weasels
taking over.
“He is privileged and charismatic
but he is a bit like a child
who hasn’t had any boundaries
put on him . . . I can be like
that. It is possible when I was a
bit younger I liked to party for
days. Obviously you can’t sustain
that,” Rhodes said.
A Toi Whakaari: New Zealand
Drama School graduate, he said
although the story is a children’s
tale there are important themes
– particularly on protecting the
environment and the power of
friendship.
“It has got a real company feel
. . . I haven’t been in a cast this
big I don’t think for years. It is
huge, the set and costumes. I
have not been to a set like this, it
has got three revolving stages. It
is spectacular.”
It is not the first time Rhodes
has performed with The Court
Theatre. In 2017 he played a key
role in comedy-thriller Ropable.
Growing up, it didn’t take
long for Rhodes to work out he
wanted to do performing full
time.

In March, he will perform in

Christmas wishes
from the team at Harcourts Gold
Parklands and New Brighton
The team at Harcourts
Gold Parklands and New
Brighton would like to
take this opportunity to
wish you all a very happy
and safe Christmas.
Nikila Creagh
HARCOURTS GOLD EASTSIDE SALES MANAGER
Tis the Season.…
As 2019 comes to a close I, like
so many others, tend to reflect
on what we have managed to
accomplish throughout the past
year. I also look forward to that
New Year clean slate, and what
2020 (and a new decade) might
hold for us moving ahead.
It has been a year of change and challenge for our
teams at both the Parklands and New Brighton offices.
On a positive note, the property market, I believe,
is now showing early signs of a new growth phase
in Christchurch. Supply across the marketplace has
been light throughout the year, whilst demand has
remained strong, in particular regarding the uninsured
‘as is’ market.
Our consultants are constantly upskilling and continuing
to gather further knowledge in and around a wide variety
of property. Specific expertise concerning problematic
property has lead to considerable success and positive
results for clients this past year. Our most successful
campaigns have simply derived from sheer hard work,
utilising specialist databases, superior knowledge right
across the marketplace, and making the most of the
wider Harcourts network.
Further development has meant that our local
community is starting to settle and thrive, and it
is satisfying and exciting to see numerous lengthy
projects coming to fruition which will benefit our
community and the people that live here.
It has been such a pleasure to be able to give back to a
variety of community groups this past year by way of
volunteering time, goods, or financially via our Harcourts
Foundation Grants. Should you be involved with a
not for profit organisation that could do with some
assistance, please feel free to contact us in 2020.
Should you be looking to make a career change in the
New Year, it may be of interest to know that we are
seeking new additions to join our award winning team.
Whether you are an established consultant, or if you are
a self-starter who likes a challenge, with an interest in
property and people, give me a call for a confidential
chat. Nikila ph. 0275175645.
Despite our offices being closed briefly over the holiday
period, our consultants will be available and happy to
assist during this time. Contact our after-hours service
and we will put you in touch with one of the team.
We wish you and your family all the very best for a
safe, happy Christmas and New Year and look forward
to helping you achieve your property goals in 2020.
A tremendous thank-you to all those who have sold,
bought and/or referred us to friends and colleagues
throughout the current year.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

DEDICATION TO BECOME

Young humanitarian wins
Fred Hollows award
• By Claire Booker
BEN DOWDLE has been
recognised in New Zealand’s
first-ever Fred Hollows Humanity
Awards.
The Mairehau Primary School
pupil was presented a certificate
last Friday at a school assembly.
The awards, which were open
to all Year 6 students throughout
New Zealand, are part of a global
movement created to acknowledge
passionate children striving to
improve the world around them.
A spokeswoman from the Fred
Hollows Foundation said humanity
in New Zealand’s young people
was “deeply evident” in the
large number of students across
the country who were nominated
for the awards.
Said assistant principal
Amanda Chisnall, who nominated
Ben for the award: “Ben is a
kind and caring student who goes
out of his way to help others. He
embodies our Mairehau Primary
School values of respect, believe,
aspire and achieve.
“Nothing is ever an issue for
Ben. He always puts in 110 per
cent effort into everything that
he sets his mind to. Ben truly embodies
the values of compassion,
integrity and kindness.”

About 70 students were nominated
for the awards across New
Zealand, and Ben said it was an
honour to receive the certificate.
He “felt special that not everyone
could be nominated” and is
looking to develop his leadership
skills within the school.
“It’s nice to receive awards for
the effort that is put in,” he said.
13-year-old
achieves dream
MONET SCHUTTE has achieved
her dream at 13-years-old.
From a very young age, Monet
has had a dream to perform
internationally.
And last week, she received a
standing ovation at the Vienna
Concert Hall in Austria after
performing her original song,
Like You Did Before.
“Singing on stage in Vienna
was a dream come true. I am so
excited that I now have reached
one of my musical goals. It was
the first song I ever wrote, and
it has a very special meaning,”
Monet said.
Written about a friend with
depression, the song won the International
Sounds of Children’s
Rights Songwriting Competition
held in Austria.
She was awarded two prestigious
gold coin awards for her
achievement.
She wrote and recorded the
song with her mentor Sacha Vee
at SOLE Music Academy earlier
this year and decided to enter it
into the competition sponsored
by UNICEF.
Said Monet: “One of my
friends, unfortunately, suffers
from depression and so I wrote
this song about how I tried to

help.”
When Monet received the
news she had made it to the top
10 contestants from around the
world, she only had two months
to prepare for the trip and get
performance-ready.
This was a challenge, since
Monet had to learn piano to accompany
herself.
However, with the guidance
from Vee she put in the time and
is now reaping the reward.

Woolston boxing awards

“It would be good for him
to get used to travelling longer
distances and having to fight so
a possible trip to Ireland is something
I’m working on.
“Hams has really improved
his fitness this year, but he’s a
very scientific boxer and he’s a

the ring,” she said.

the New Zealand junior tennis
championships at the Scabro
Centre in Auckland.
The Cashmere club player
was competing in the 12s
age-group. Lucia and her
Auckland-based partner Jamie

doubles in convincing fashion.
The top-seeded duo dropped
just two games in their three
matches and won the final
4-0, 4-0 in 37min against No
2 seeds Max Richardson and
Chelsea Wijntjes.
She made it to the semi-finals
of the singles where she lost to
Mahinarangi Warren 4-6,-3-6
but she did bounce-back to win
the playoff for third by beating
Chelsea once again, 6-3, 6-0.
Lucia then teamed with
club-mate Ruby McPhail in
the doubles and lost a tough
semifinal against Chelsea and
her partner Xin Xin Zhu 6-3,
4-6, 7-10.
Her coach James Meredith
said he was thrilled with the
results and he hoped with another

2020, she would be able to push

“She is quite slight, so some
of the older girls are able to
control the points by being
more physical and using more

“As she grows, we’ll keep
working on it and try to build
her serve up as well because
there are a few too many

that’s quite common at this

TĀTOU KO MERE E WHAKAPONO ANA
FROM THE BOARD
As the school year draws to a close, it is wonderful to see students’ hard work and
commitment honoured at prizegiving ceremonies. Well done on your achievements.
This year the Board has been working closely with the Bishop and the Diocese Property
Group in overseeing planning for our new school at Papanui in 2023. Alongside
technical work, students and staff have been contributing, through workshops, a
survey and providing input into the development of our cultural narrative, which will
be reflected in the new school buildings and grounds.
While this whole new layer of work progresses, Marian College continues to deliver
high quality teaching and learning and providing wonderful opportunities and
experiences for students. Thank you to Marian staff, Marian College Foundation,
PTA, the Bishop and the Catholic Diocese of Christchurch for your support this year.
We have been thrilled by the steady growth of Rauru – for past students and staff of
Marian College, St Mary’s College Christchurch and McKillop College. To reconnect
with us, please register on the Marian website and follow us on Facebook.
Finally, congratulations to our 2019 graduates.
We trust the gospel values will guide you well,
as you venture forth beyond the school gates.
We wish you all the very best.
With blessings
Jan Paterson, Chair
Congratulations to Marian College Dux

Sports hub receives top award
SPORT
NGA PUNA Wai Sports Hub
has received top honours at
the New Zealand Recreation
Association awards.
The hub, which combines
facilities for athletics, hockey,
rugby league and tennis, won
the Outstanding Project Award
at a ceremony in Hamilton on
November 28.
It was judged on the NZRA
awards criteria of innovation,
community engagement, excellence,
efficiency, achievement
and sustainability.
Taiora QEll Recreation and
Sport Centre also won a Merit
Award in the same Outstanding
Project category, which is for a
successful development or major
redevelopment of a facility.
Nga Puna Wai began as a
partnership project between
Athletics Canterbury, Canterbury
Hockey, Canterbury Rugby
League and Tennis Canterbury,
Sport Canterbury, and the city
council.
The venues and grounds used
by these organisations were
damaged by the earthquakes in
2010 and 2011 and athletes and
RECOGNITION: Nga Puna Wai Sports Hub won the Outstanding Project Award at the New
Zealand Recreation Association awards for its facilities which hosts rugby league, athletics,
hockey and tennis.

players were having to travel
outside Christchurch for suitable
facilities.
Creating a shared sporting
hub was seen as the most costeffective
way to rebuild multiple
facilities rather than constructing
them all separately.
Nga Puna Wai, which is next
to the Canterbury Agricultural
Park in Wigram, opened in stages
from late 2018 and has become
the new home for the four sporting
codes, as well as providing
community playing fields.
Nga Puna Wai Sports Trust
chairman Paul Rogers said the
partnership has led to a much
better outcome than if each
sports organisation, which uses it
had built their own facilities.
“The benefits include greater
value for money, more stakeholder
involvement and a greater
sense of responsibility and ownership,
said Mr Rogers.
“Consultation with the local
community and various partners
was vital and it has happened
through every step of the project
from initial planning to completion.
The outcome is that a grassy
reserve has been transformed
into a $54 million international
standard sports facility.”
Nga Puna Wai has already
hosted the National Athletics
Championships, which were
held in Christchurch for the first
time in 10 years, and international
hockey event, the FIH Pro
League series.
Sport Canterbury chief executive
Julyan Falloon said the hub
is a massive boost for local sport.
“It not only meets the needs
of the local community, promoting
participation across
sporting codes, it also benefits
the Christchurch economy attracting
competitors and their
supporters for national and
international events being held
here, he said.
“On top of that, there’s wide
exposure of Christchurch on television
and live stream coverage
of the events.”
City council recreation and
sports services manager David
Bailey said the award is welcome
recognition of the city council’s
partnership with the local
sporting community to create a
regional sports facility.
“Nga Puna Wai is a great
example of how sporting codes,
a local sports trust and a local
authority can collaborate
effectively,” said Mr Bailey.
St Andrew’s a cut above the rest at
Gillette Cup cricket tournament
• By Gordon Findlater
ST ANDREW’S College made
history at Hagley Park last week
by winning the country’s top
prize in secondary school cricket
for the first time.
Playing Hamilton Boys’ High
School in the final round top
of the table Gillette Cup clash,
the St Andrew’s first XI carded
a 174-run victory to claim the
piece of silverware for the first
time in its 29-year history. This
year is also the first time St Andrew’s
had qualified for the six
strong national tournament after
winning their way through the
Canterbury regional qualifiers
which has been dominated by
Christchurch Boys’ High School
in recent years.
“It’s bigger than all of us in the
team, knowing that a lot of old
boys that have been texting in
support is great. It’s huge for the
school,” said St Andrew’s captain
Rhys Mariu.
The moment St Andrew’s captured
the win was extra special
for St Andrew’s coach Mike
Johnston, who has been with the
first XI for close to two decades.
“It’s been an amazing journey
this year with these boys. It’s
been 18 years I’ve been coaching
St Andrew’s, it’s the first time
we’ve been here and we’ve won
it. We’ve just got a great team
culture and they’ve worked for
each other,” said Johnston.
After being put into bat, St
Andrew’s opening pair of Mariu
and Harrison Darling made a
composed start before picking
up the run rate and producing
what turned out to be a matchwinning
opening stand of 142
before Mariu fell for 89.
The solid foundation allowed
the team to reach 276/8 from
their 50 overs.
“We were really surprised
that Hamilton put us into bat
and Rhys [Mariu] and Harrison
[Darling] set the tone this morning
with some great batting and
we knew if we got more than
250 it was going to be too many
for them to chase down,” said
Johnston.
St Andrew’s went about
defending their total by restricting
Hamilton Boys’ early in
their chase which resulted in a
required run rate of eight an over
by the 20th over. The pressure
eventually took its toll resulting
in Hamilton Boys’ being dismissed
for 102 in the 35th over.
“We knew that is we set the
right fields and bowled to them it
was going to be really tough for
them,” said Mariu.
