Demand for homes pushes<br />
up peninsula property values<br />
• By Jess Gibson<br />
PROPERTY VALUES have shot<br />
up across the <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News<br />
area, with Akaroa receiving the<br />
highest increase.<br />
New figures released by<br />
Quotable Value show the average<br />
change in capital value across<br />
Banks Peninsula has risen 9.7 per<br />
cent from 2016, based on market<br />
sales from August 1.<br />
It showed properties in Akaroa<br />
have jumped<br />
14.1 per cent,<br />
sitting at an<br />
average value of<br />
$686,600.<br />
Akaroa-based<br />
<strong>Bay</strong>leys salesman<br />
Rob Berry <br />
Rob Berry said<br />
he has noticed<br />
a “dramatic increase” in the<br />
demand for homes and baches<br />
compared to this time last<br />
year.<br />
“We’ve been getting up to<br />
eight or nine bidders at<br />
auctions, whereas a year ago<br />
we would be lucky to get one or<br />
two,” he said.<br />
He said he has been getting<br />
about $100,000 more for the average,<br />
mid-range Akaroa property<br />
than a year ago.<br />
“There is a serious interest in<br />
everything we list right now. A<br />
lot of listings used to pass but we<br />
have sold everything under the<br />
hammer this year with only one<br />
exception.”<br />
However, he said the jump<br />
was not surprising, as it “had<br />
to happen” at some point<br />
following the global financial<br />
crisis in 2008, which left a lot<br />
of waterfront property markets<br />
flatlining.<br />
In Lyttelton, an increase of five<br />
per cent has bought properties up<br />
to an average of $542,200, while<br />
its bays have risen slightly more<br />
at 5.3 per cent, now averaging at<br />
$571,100 a property.<br />
From Mt Pleasant to Taylors<br />

GOOD NEWS in many ways for property<br />
owners across Banks Peninsula and<br />
suburbs on the flat (see page 1).<br />
Property values have increased across the<br />
board after a lull for quite some time postearthquakes.<br />
Akaroa has had a big jump, 14.1 per cent, the largest of any<br />
area across the Banks Peninsula/Christchurch rating area.<br />
THe average property is now valued at $686,600.<br />
Said <strong>Bay</strong>leys salesman Rob Berry: “We’ve been getting up to<br />
eight or nine bidders at auctions, whereas a year ago we would<br />
be lucky to get one or two.”<br />
Mid-range Akaroa properties are now fetching $100,000 more<br />
than they did a year ago.<br />
But of course there is a downside to higher property values –<br />
what you pay for rates.<br />

Extra time needed for clock tower<br />
REPAIRS TO the Scarborough<br />
clock tower will take longer than<br />
expected.<br />
While contractors have been<br />
working on the restoration of<br />
the historic structure, they have<br />
found the concrete is in a worse<br />
condition than initial engineering<br />
investigations suggested.<br />
Restoration work was meant to<br />
be completed in January but will<br />
now continue until February.<br />
Sumner Community Residents’<br />
Association coordinator Charlie<br />
Hudson said the group would<br />
have loved for the repairs to be<br />
finished sooner, however, she<br />
does understand they have to do<br />
them properly.<br />
“It’s a heritage building and<br />
with that comes complications.”<br />
City council head of parks<br />
Andrew Rutledge said more<br />
extensive testing has revealed the<br />
need for extra repairs to the clock<br />
tower, as well as New Brighton’s<br />
clock tower.<br />
The landmark along the esplanade,<br />
which dates back to the<br />
1930s, has been fenced since early<br />
last year.<br />
It suffered structural damage<br />
during the 2010 and 20<strong>11</strong> earthquakes.<br />
Moisture from the elements<br />
and decades of exposure to<br />
a harsh coastal environment<br />
has penetrated these areas and<br />
caused significant corrosion to<br />

“Both clock towers are about 90<br />
years old and were built at a time<br />

“We have found issues with the<br />

ROAD WIDENING STARTED<br />
The intersection of Sumner<br />
and Evans Pass roads is being<br />
widened to allow more room<br />
for large vehicles. The work,<br />
which includes line marking<br />
and bollard relocation, started<br />
yesterday and is expected to<br />
last until next Thursday. Hours<br />
of work are between 7am and<br />
6pm. For more information visit<br />

WHARF REPAIRS<br />
The Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> Wharf<br />
will be partially closed until<br />
<strong>December</strong> 20 to allow the<br />
installation of two piles and a new<br />
timber brace below the waterline.<br />
The two piles were identified as<br />
rotting at the seabed in a recent<br />
dive inspection. Work will not<br />
affect the functionality of the<br />
wharf and the ferry will run as<br />
normal, although it may dock on<br />
the northern stairs temporarily.<br />
PLAYGROUND UPGRADES<br />
Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />
Community Board has approved<br />
the refurbishment of two<br />
playgrounds at a combined total<br />
of $165,000. Radley Playground,<br />
in Woolston and King Park<br />
Playground, in Mt Pleasant, are<br />
reaching the end of their lifespan<br />
and will receive new equipment<br />
for a range of ages and abilities.<br />
Construction is likely to start in<br />
May or June 2020.<br />

Buyers compete for limited stock<br />
• From page 1<br />
Residential property values<br />
across the city and Banks Peninsula<br />
had risen an average of<br />
about one per cent since the last<br />
district revaluation in 2016.<br />
In contrast to the increases<br />
seen across the <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
area, property valuations in<br />
some inner-city suburbs like<br />
Upper Riccarton and Sockburn<br />
decreased as much as seven per<br />
cent.<br />
Quotable Value general manager<br />
David Nagel said the <strong>2019</strong><br />
revaluation changes have created<br />
“somewhat of a rebalancing of<br />
the residential market.<br />
He said following the<br />
February 22, 20<strong>11</strong>, earthquake<br />
there was a lot of demand for<br />
“safe” homes in Sockburn and<br />
Upper Riccarton, with buyers<br />
competing for limited stock,<br />
forcing prices up.<br />
But that demand had now<br />
dropped as house hunters went<br />
elsewhere.<br />
The new values will apply to<br />
rates from July 1.<br />
They do not affect the total<br />
rates collected by the city<br />
council, which are yet to be set<br />
through the Annual Plan, but<br />
they do influence how much of<br />
the total is collected from each<br />
ratepayer.<br />
Residents have until January<br />
24 to object to new property<br />
values.<br />
MID-RANGE: A listing on L’Aube Reserve, Akaroa, is going for<br />
$36,000 below the average property value of $686,600. It<br />
has four bedrooms, two bathrooms and 960 sq m of land<br />
area.<br />
BALANCE: A four-bedroom property in Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> is<br />
selling for $590,000, which is more than the average price of<br />
$571,100 for a home in the area.<br />

Genevieve<br />
Robinson <br />
THE BANKS Peninsula<br />
Community Board has become<br />
involved in the saga over piledriving<br />
in Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
and hector’s dolphins.<br />
Members want to know<br />
whether more can be done to<br />
ensure the endangered species<br />
are protected while Lyttelton<br />
Port Company builds its new<br />
cruise berth.<br />
A letter<br />
will be sent<br />
to Minister of<br />
Conservation<br />
Eugenie Sage<br />
and Environment<br />
Canterbury<br />
this<br />
week to bring<br />
concerns to<br />
their attention and to question<br />
the procedures being followed<br />
during operations.<br />
It comes following a presentation<br />
by Genevieve Robinson<br />
of Māui and Hector’s Dolphin<br />
Defenders, who spoke to the<br />
community board on behalf of<br />
concerned residents at its most<br />
recent meeting.<br />
Ms Robinson addressed<br />
increased sightings of dolphins<br />
in the inner harbour and<br />
the risk of them either being<br />
trapped for the duration of the<br />
piling or risking re-exposure<br />
to piling noise while trying to<br />
exit.<br />
Said community board chairwoman<br />
Tori Peden: “We are<br />
advocating to the minister and<br />
ECan to make sure things are<br />
being taken care of. We want to<br />
make sure that the processes are<br />
being followed.”<br />
“[The dolphins] are very special<br />
to Banks Peninsula<br />
and someone needs to look<br />
out for them. That is what<br />
Genevieve is asking us for and<br />
that’s why we are forwarding her<br />
concerns.”<br />
Ms Robinson remains unconvinced<br />
a 25-page Marine<br />
Mammal Management Plan<br />
developed by LPC, Cawthron<br />
Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz<br />
News<br />
Further concerns for dolphins’ safety<br />
Institute, Blue Planet Marine<br />
and the Department of Conservation<br />
is adequately protecting<br />
the dolphins.<br />
The plan includes having a<br />
monitored 450m marine mammal<br />
observation zone that if<br />
a dolphin enters, piling shuts<br />
down to allow dolphins time to<br />
evacuate the harbour when work<br />
starts.<br />
The zone extends southwards<br />
into the harbour but does not<br />
include the inner harbour.<br />
Ms Robinson believes LPC<br />
should extend its MMOZ zone<br />
until the end of piling, which<br />
is estimated to be completed in<br />
about two weeks.<br />
However, LPC has maintained<br />

its stance 450m zone is sufficient.<br />
Said strategic engagement<br />
manager Phil de Joux: “The<br />
location and extent of the zone<br />
is based on hectors’ dolphin’s<br />
sensitivity to noise and modelled<br />
underwater noise levels caused<br />
by piling. This modelling<br />
showed a zone of 450m was required<br />
for the main wharf piling<br />
at the cruise berth.”<br />
Ms Robinson has requested<br />
a list of dolphin sightings,<br />
including during active piling,<br />
within the shutdown zone and<br />
validation of LPC’s modelling.<br />
Her requests have been<br />
forwarded to LPC by the<br />
community board.<br />

Two injured<br />
on Purau<br />
walking track<br />
• By Jess Gibson<br />
PAGE 5<br />
THE DIAMOND <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
Volunteer Fire Brigade was called<br />
out to two incidents near Purau<br />
on Friday and Saturday after<br />
people had fallen on the same<br />
walking track.<br />
Chief fire officer Bob Palmer<br />
said a woman in her 60s had to<br />
be carried out of the track from<br />
Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> to Purau on<br />
a stretcher at about noon on<br />
Friday after fracturing her leg and<br />
ankle.<br />
He said she had been there for<br />
about two hours before other<br />
walkers found her and called the<br />
brigade.<br />
On Saturday, a 25-year-old<br />
woman who had injured her leg at<br />
about 5.30pm was also carried out<br />
on a stretcher.<br />
Both incidents happened at<br />
similar locations on the track<br />
which is narrow and has a lot of<br />
thistles.<br />
Mr Palmer said the first<br />
callout was a good example of<br />
why people should always take<br />
a cellphone while walking on<br />
offroad tracks, as well as fluids<br />
and food.<br />
Merry<br />
Christmas<br />
Wishing everyone a<br />
happy & healthy<br />
Christmas!

which helps to<br />
improve the<br />
safety, resilience and well-being<br />
of residents.<br />
There are currently 14 out of<br />
59 streets involved in Neighbourhood<br />
Support in the harbour,<br />
and 27 individuals.<br />
To compare, in Parklands<br />
there are 49 streets, consisting of<br />
299 individuals and the Kirsten<br />
Pl group has 78 households.<br />
Ms Tahau-Paton said she<br />
wants to get at least one person<br />
from each street in Lyttelton on<br />
board with the group.<br />
It is one of several efforts<br />
which residents have taken in<br />
response to claims of a lack of<br />
policing in and around Lyttelton.<br />

SECURITY: An attempt is being made to lower crime in<br />
Lyttelton.<br />
Private security company<br />
Tactical Response Team was<br />
running free night patrols in<br />
and around the harbour until<br />
November 19.<br />
However, director Shannon<br />
Mudge shut them down as he<br />
felt their resources were no<br />
longer required.<br />
Part of the reason was that<br />
one of Community Patrols<br />
of New Zealand’s vehicles<br />
would soon be stationed in<br />
Lyttelton – another attempt to<br />
lower crime.<br />
The patrol is currently seeking<br />
volunteers.<br />
People who join Neighbourhood<br />
Support would receive<br />
emails and alerts with news<br />
from community partners,<br />
including CPNZ and police.<br />
They would also gain tips<br />
and resources to improve their<br />
household and neighbourhood<br />
safety and learn how to be better<br />
prepared for emergencies.<br />
A “contact tree” would be<br />
set up on participating streets,<br />
which provides residents with a<br />
‘Rest assured if a criminal<br />
wants to go down a street<br />
that’s got a neighbourhood<br />
support sign and stickers<br />
they better think again’<br />
– Vicki Tahau-Paton<br />
list of nearby occupants to call<br />
or text during an event to notify<br />
them it is happening.<br />
“Rest assured if a criminal<br />
wants to go down a street that’s<br />
got a neighbourhood support<br />
sign and stickers, they better<br />
think again,” said Ms Tahau-<br />
Paton.<br />
Neighbourhood Support<br />
regional manager Murray Mc-<br />
Gusty said statistics show that in<br />
areas with “effective neighbourhood<br />
support groups, reported<br />
crime rates were shown to be<br />
substantially lower.”<br />
Senior Sergeant Roy Appley<br />
said police were supportive of<br />
the action.<br />
“It’s communities getting<br />
involved in their own safety and<br />
that’s always a good thing.”<br />
Senior Sergeant Appley does<br />
not think crime is any worse in<br />
Lyttelton.<br />
He said while there are issues<br />
which happen from time to<br />
time, particularly damage or<br />
theft involving cars parked on<br />
the road, incidents have not<br />
increased.<br />
Call for surfers<br />
to wear<br />
board leashes<br />
endorsed<br />
ENVIRONMENT Canterbury’s<br />
deputy harbourmaster Guy Harris<br />
has endorsed a call for surfers to<br />
wear leashes on their boards this<br />
summer.<br />
It comes after a <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
News article on November 20<br />
about a head injury nine-year-old<br />
Ryder Townshend received when<br />
a surfer’s board came loose and<br />
crashed down on him.<br />
“It is part of the global ‘Surfers’<br />
code’ and is mandatory in many<br />
parts of the world. Whilst it is a<br />
requirement of the Canterbury<br />
Navigation and Safety Bylaw that<br />
stand-up paddleboards wear a<br />
leash whilst surfing, it currently<br />
is not for surfers, as it is generally<br />
felt that it’s so obviously a good<br />
idea that it doesn’t need to be<br />
explicitly stated.”<br />
After nearly 40 years of surfing,<br />
some of the most serious incidents<br />
he has come across have been due<br />
to surfboards hitting people.<br />
“Leashes are cheap, hardly<br />
noticeable when worn and have<br />
practically zero effect on your<br />
surfing – perhaps other than to<br />
give you some confidence that<br />
you won’t lose your board and<br />
potentially ruin someone’s day –<br />
or even their life.”<br />

Marina hosts historic vessel fleet<br />
A FLEET of historic vessels assembled<br />
at Lyttelton’s Te Ana Marina to celebrate<br />
250 years since the first onshore<br />
meetings between Māori and Pākehā.<br />
The Fa’afaite, Haunui, Ngahiraka<br />
Mai Tāwhiti wakas and the Spirit<br />
of New Zealand were hosted in the<br />
harbour for Tuia 250 on Saturday and<br />
Sunday.<br />
The crew was hosted overnight by<br />
Te Rūnanga o Koukourarata, before<br />
a pōwhiri at Rāpaki that officially<br />
started the proceedings.<br />
During the event, the Tuia<br />
Mātauranga Roadshow provided an<br />
interactive experience focusing on<br />
Pacific voyaging and New Zealand<br />

Further feedback on Peninsula names<br />
Readers respond to the<br />
plan to add Maori names<br />
to locations on Banks<br />
Peninsula<br />
Donald Couch, Rāpaki:<br />
It is unfortunate that the<br />
original article on Whakaraupō/<br />
Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong> place names<br />
proposal did not explain the<br />
background or put the suggestion<br />
in context.<br />
There is a detailed and specific<br />
process to make placenames<br />
in New Zealand legal. We have<br />
been behind in being aware of<br />
and getting onto this for Māori<br />
placenames.<br />
If the New Zealand Geographical<br />
Board approves the proposal<br />
regarding formalising <strong>11</strong> of these<br />
names, the Pakeha names currently<br />
in use will remain for<br />
continued use by those who<br />
prefer them.<br />
May I respond briefly to the<br />
responders (<strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News)<br />
of <strong>December</strong> 4.<br />
To Ray O’Rourke, your ancestors’<br />
placenames and heritage<br />
will not change – they remain.<br />
We will simply have our heritage<br />
and our ancestors equally<br />
recognised.<br />
To Costa Harris, we had never<br />
looked at our proposal in your<br />
terms of ‘white guilt’ and ‘colonialism’.<br />
It has everything to do<br />
with current and future generations<br />
who will continue to live in,<br />
DIVIDED: Readers have expressed mixed views on a proposal<br />
to add Maori names to 13 existing Banks Peninsula places<br />
including Dyers Pass, which could soon also be known as<br />
Pukeatua<br />
PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN<br />
or associate with, Te Rāpaki o te<br />
Rakiwhakaputa.<br />
To Ken Duncan, the proposed<br />
Ōmawete is in recognition of a<br />
Ngāti Māmoe rangatira Māwete.<br />
To Hilary Anderson, the<br />
existing names (in English) will<br />
indeed remain as they are.<br />
To Lynne Clark, yes, we belong<br />
to the other party who signed<br />
the Treaty of Waitangi which<br />
recognised us at the time as ‘British<br />
subjects’ (now NZ citizens).<br />
As such, we also have some rights<br />
under NZ law including those<br />
covering placenames.<br />
To Murray Stuart, these are not<br />
new names – they are actually<br />
older than those currently in use.<br />
To Wal Remu, we haven’t made<br />
any suggestions regarding the<br />
Sign of the Kiwi.<br />
We would be happy to discuss<br />
the proposal further and seek the<br />
support of those who regard this<br />
as a positive development for our<br />
communities.<br />
Norma Powell:<br />
I wish to endorse every letter<br />
in the last issue. The trouble with<br />
Maori names is that you have no<br />
idea where the place is. Maori<br />
folk can enjoy speaking their language<br />
amongst themselves but we<br />
are an English speaking nation so<br />
please let us have names that are<br />
relevant to the majority.<br />
In reply to your correspondent<br />
from Heathcote, a year ago<br />
I had a theft from my garden<br />
and although I knew who the<br />
culprit was the Police were not<br />
interested. I was told it has been<br />
recorded.<br />
Ron Williams:<br />
I agree with all those writers<br />
opposed to changing current<br />
European names to Maori<br />
names. Maori only have a written<br />
language because the English<br />
settlers gave them one. I am sure<br />
when Maori arrived and slaughtered<br />
the Mori Ori, (driving the<br />
survivors to what is now known<br />
as the Chatham Islands) they<br />
didn’t consider their rights.<br />
Jane Robertson & Russ Harris:<br />
We live in Whakaraupō/Lyttelton<br />
<strong>Harbour</strong> and look out across<br />
Kaitangata/Mansons Peninsula<br />
to Te Ahu Pātiki/Mt Herbert. We<br />
use both Māori and European<br />
names interchangeably to refer to<br />
the landscape in which we live.<br />
We are fully supportive of the<br />
recent proposal made by Te Hapū<br />
o Ngāti Wheke to restore the<br />
original Māori names of features<br />
in and around Whakaraupō as<br />
well as to retain existing names<br />
which have been in long term<br />
use. Personally, we prefer more<br />
melodious and more descriptively<br />
meaningful Māori names.<br />
Exactly how much do most of<br />
us know about Sidney Herbert<br />
or George William Lyttelton,<br />
neither of whom set foot in<br />
Aotearoa/New Zealand. However,<br />
for those who fear the loss<br />
of familiar European names, it is<br />
not a case of either/or but of both,<br />
and we will be culturally and linguistically<br />
richer for the change.<br />

FINAL<br />
WEEK<br />
Preparing for Xmas<br />
IT’S STARTING to look a<br />
bit like Christmas<br />
It was a busy weekend at<br />
our place over the weekend,<br />
ushering in Christmas<br />
month.<br />
This time of year is also<br />
the start of kids’ birthday<br />
season for us, thanks to<br />
Vittoria being a January<br />
baby.<br />
Our first was on Saturday<br />
and Vittoria was her<br />
typical vivacious self, running<br />
about and munching<br />
on birthday treats.<br />
She even managed to<br />
borrow another friend’s<br />
wooden bike as we were<br />
leaving – I mean convincing<br />
a toddler to give up a<br />
toy when you have your<br />
arms full is a tall order.<br />
Later that night, Vittoria’s<br />
godfather Codey<br />
arrived from Australia for<br />
a lightning fast whānau<br />
visit and stayed with us for<br />
the night.<br />
Vittoria was fast asleep<br />
by the time he arrived so<br />
I waited until later in the<br />
morning to take her into<br />
the room and see him/<br />
shock him awake in petty<br />
retaliation for not doing<br />
the dishes when we were<br />
flatmates.<br />
I had thought finding a<br />
grown man asleep in her<br />
room might have surprised<br />
her at least a little, but<br />
as soon as she saw it was<br />
FESTIVE: Have you ever<br />
seen concentration like<br />
this putting a star on a<br />
tree?<br />
Codey she just lit up and<br />
was happy to giggle and<br />
babble away to him.<br />
Watching the two of them<br />
together while he was at<br />
our place was awesome. She<br />
hasn’t seen her godfather<br />
since her first birthday, but<br />
she was straight back into<br />
playing with him like it had<br />
only been a day or two.<br />
The top game of the<br />
morning? Riding the<br />
borrowed bike through<br />
Codey’s legs, hunting him<br />
down if he wanted to stop<br />
playing and eat.<br />

AN IDEA born on a sports<br />

budding entrepreneurs a<br />
top national award.<br />
Wayo Whyte, of Lyttelton,<br />
and Riley Flanagan,<br />
of Governors <strong>Bay</strong>, are<br />
two of four Cashmere<br />
High School students to<br />
bag Company of the Year<br />
at the Young Enterprise<br />
Scheme national competition.<br />
The group of year 13 students,<br />
which also includes<br />
Josh Dalley and Luisa<br />
Birkenhake, invented Pivot,<br />
the world’s first instant<br />
ice strapping tape.<br />
By combining two sporting<br />
necessities – strapping<br />
tape and ice packs, the<br />
students have developed<br />
an instant ice-cold sports<br />
strapping tape which will<br />
enable athletes to ‘rest,<br />
recover and return faster<br />
than ever before’.<br />
Their company was<br />
awarded $3000, as well as a<br />

Last Wednesday they attended<br />
the national finals<br />
in Wellington and once<br />
again impressed with their<br />
innovation and entrepreneurship,<br />
beating 20 other<br />
regional champions.<br />
Said Pivot marketing<br />
manager Wayo: “Our idea<br />
stemmed from a problem<br />
we had all faced.<br />
“United by our love of<br />
sport we recognised an<br />
inconvenience that had<br />
plagued all of us at different<br />
times – ice packs and<br />
strapping tape just don’t<br />
mix well and no one likes<br />
sitting on the sidelines<br />
watching their team play<br />
while they’re waiting on an<br />
ice pack to make a difference.”<br />
With this idea in mind,<br />
the students approached<br />
their school’s chemistry<br />
department.<br />
“We wanted to create<br />
a strapping tape with<br />
a chemical embedded<br />
within that goes cold with<br />
the application of water.<br />
We wanted our product to<br />
be something you chose to<br />
activate, and water was a<br />
no brainer.”<br />
Their product combines<br />
the support of strapping<br />
tape with the cooling of<br />
an ice pack, allowing the<br />
user to recover faster while<br />
avoiding the immobility<br />
caused by an ice pack.<br />

Hopes for bittern boom<br />
Environment<br />
Canterbury’s<br />
councillor Vicky<br />
Southworth<br />
writes about<br />
bitterns, a critically<br />
endangered bird which lives<br />
at Lake Ellesmere<br />
I spent a recent Saturday night<br />
listening out for bitterns booming<br />
on the fringes of Te Waihora, or<br />
Lake Ellesmere, about an hour’s<br />
drive from Christchurch. I was<br />
part of a volunteer team helping<br />
Emma Williams from the Department<br />
of Conservation with her<br />
research on the elusive bittern.<br />
Male bitterns don’t tweet, they<br />
boom. They are advertising to<br />
passing females that they have<br />
found a great nesting spot - pop<br />
in and settle down! A good<br />
nesting spot has dense raupō, or<br />
bulrushes, which offers a hiding<br />
place from harriers overhead.<br />
There were two circling overhead<br />
while I watched the lake – and a<br />
food source close by.<br />
Large flocks of bittern were<br />
reported in the past, and males<br />
could stay in the territory of<br />
just a few hectares during the<br />
breeding season. Recent research<br />
using GPS shows that these days<br />
individual males roam widely,<br />
probably in search of food. This<br />
change in behaviour is thought<br />
to be due to degraded habitat.<br />
Bittern feed using sight to catch<br />
ELUSIVE: A bittern looks over its eggs at Lake Ellesmere.<br />
Increased understanding of the critically endangered bird will<br />
help improve habitat management.<br />
their prey, meaning they need<br />
shallow water that is sufficiently<br />
clear to see into. They are vulnerable<br />
to predation if low water<br />
levels force them to feed away<br />
from the vegetated lake edges.<br />
Only 10 per cent of New<br />
Zealand’s original wetlands now<br />
remain, and much of what’s left<br />
is degraded. The female birds<br />
struggle to both protect and feed<br />
their brood and the population<br />
nationally has declined rapidly in<br />
the last 40 years or so. Sadly, the<br />
species is now considered critically<br />
endangered with less than<br />
1000 left in New Zealand. Understanding<br />
more about these birds<br />
and what they need will help<br />
improve habitat management<br />
around the lake and hopefully<br />
support an increased population<br />
of bitterns.<br />

BIRDS OF THE ESTUARY<br />
THE AMAZING native<br />
Bar-tailed Godwits breeds<br />
in Alaska. And each<br />
September, when the harsh<br />
Alaskan winter sets in<br />
they fly an astonishing<br />
12000 km non-stop at an<br />
average speed of 70 km/h to<br />
Australia and New Zealand<br />
estuaries where they spend<br />
our summer here with us.<br />
Our Avon-Heathcote<br />
estuary/Ihutai host just<br />
over 1500 birds this year.<br />
Numbers are unfortunately<br />
slowly declining.<br />
Godwits feed on small<br />
cockles and pipi, crabs, marine<br />
worms and small insects.<br />
Each year in March they<br />
return to Alaska for another<br />
breeding season with only<br />
one stop along the way in<br />
estuaries around the Yellow<br />
Sea to feed before continuing<br />
to Alaska. A journey of<br />
some 14,000km. Godwits<br />
are among some of the longest<br />
distance migrating birds<br />
in the world.<br />
How can we help these<br />
very shy birds? Keep dogs on<br />
the lead when walking near<br />
the estuary and pick up litter.<br />
Tanya Jenkins is the manager of the Avon-<br />
Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust, a non-profit<br />
organisation formed in 2002 to protect one of<br />
New Zealand’s most important coastal wetlands.<br />
Each week she introduces a new bird found<br />
in the estuary. Her column aims to raise the<br />
understanding of the values and uniqueness of<br />
the area.<br />

Are you winding up or<br />
winding down?<br />
As the end of the year draws nearer (just two more<br />
Saturdays until Christmas!) I’ve often wondered should<br />
we be winding up or winding down? I suppose winding<br />
down means we are slowing down, getting ready to<br />
finish, have a break before starting again in the New<br />
Year. Arguably, winding up means exactly the same.<br />
In other words, we’re finishing things off and bringing<br />
activities to close before taking that well earned<br />
break. Or, does it mean we’re staying busy, keeping<br />
active, creating new opportunities and preparing to hit<br />
the ground running when 2020 rolls around? That’s<br />
certainly my preference. There’s no doubt that a break<br />
is something to look forward to, but invariably over<br />
the holiday period people are taking time to think over<br />
their options for next year. Buying, selling, securing<br />
an investment property, trading up or trading down.<br />
So, with that in mind, it’s important to know there are<br />
sales consultants working, properties available and<br />
information on hand for when the<br />
New Year rush hits, usually around<br />
mid-January.<br />
So you might think you’re looking<br />
forward to winding down for the<br />
year but we are very much in<br />
the mode of winding things up.<br />
It’s actually a great time to have<br />
everything in place so you can hit the ground running next<br />
year. In fact, as I write this, we have two local homeowners<br />
in our office doing the paperwork to have their property<br />
available to view from mid-January. A number of other<br />
property owners have also made appointments with us to<br />
do exactly the same thing. And the good thing is, once that’s<br />
all done, those property owners can then look forward to<br />
winding down for Christmas!<br />
Come and talk to us today about getting things in place so<br />
you can hit the market early in the New Year.<br />

A big shout out to volunteers<br />
Port Hills<br />
MP Ruth<br />
Dyson writes<br />
about the<br />
hard work of<br />
volunteers<br />
in the<br />
community<br />
THE SURF patrols have started<br />
on our beaches, the visits to<br />
people living alone in their<br />
homes continue, the hot, cooked<br />
lunches are served in our local<br />
churches, our fire brigade members<br />
are alert – and hundreds<br />
of other actions and activities<br />
happen which keep our communities<br />
and our residents safe<br />
and happy.<br />
Sometimes we take their presence<br />
for granted. They are there<br />
when we need them. But we<br />
shouldn’t take them for granted.<br />
They are volunteers who add<br />
their service on top of their daily<br />
lives. So to all those people –<br />
patrolling our beaches watching<br />
out for swimmers who get into<br />
bother, our Lyttelton Community<br />
House team, St Johns and<br />
Linwood Ave Union church who<br />
provide meals for so many people,<br />
Lyttelton and Sumner Fire<br />
Brigades, Age Concern visitors,<br />
Sumner <strong>Bay</strong>s volunteers and so<br />
many others – thank you.<br />
Some countries don’t have the<br />
culture and spirit of volunteering<br />
that we have in New Zealand.<br />
It’s part of our DNA and<br />
one that we should appreciate<br />
and nurture. These volunteers<br />
give up a lot of their leisure and<br />
family time so that our residents<br />
have a better life. That’s pretty<br />
special.<br />
So heading into the Christmas<br />
and New Year period which is<br />
often a time of reflection on the<br />
year past and the year ahead,<br />
let’s all take a moment<br />
to acknowledge and thank<br />
those who make our place a<br />
great one to live and play in –<br />
people who go the extra mile for<br />
others. They give us a gift that<br />
tops most Christmas presents<br />
BRAVE:<br />
Volunteer fire<br />
brigades deal<br />
with all types<br />
of callouts,<br />
including<br />
motor vehicle<br />
accidents, fires<br />
and medical<br />
rescues.<br />
and they don’t do it for thanks<br />
or glory. But they deserve<br />
both.<br />
These volunteers are a big part<br />
of why we have such special and<br />
strong communities. I hope that<br />
their summer is not all work<br />
and that they also get some time<br />
to spend in the sun with their<br />
families.<br />

Wine<br />
Red wines to enjoy in the warm weather<br />
• By Mark Henderson<br />
FOR RED wine lovers pinot noir<br />
can be the ticket to happiness on<br />
hot days.<br />
Drunk cool, not cold, their<br />
wonderful fragrance and lighter<br />
frame can be exhilarating rather<br />
than exhausting.<br />
2017 Villa Maria Platinum<br />
Selection Organic<br />
Marlborough Pinot Noir<br />
Price: $29.99<br />
Rating: Very good to excellent<br />
Bright and juicy nose, dusty<br />
smoky notes, tar, lead pencil and<br />
savoury nuances. Savoury notes<br />
continue on the stony minerally<br />
palate with juicy, tangy red<br />
berryfruit. A refreshing vein of<br />
coolness runs through this. Time<br />
sees the stony, grainy tannic<br />
backbone become more evident<br />
with a tangy sweet ‘n’ sour note<br />
on the nose.<br />
Better with food for now.<br />
www.villamariawines.com<br />
2017 Tohu Whenua Awa<br />
Single Vineyard Awatere<br />
Valley Pinot Noir<br />
Price: $41.99<br />
Rating: Very good to excellent<br />
Bolder, darker fruits and bonfire<br />
embers: red fruit fragrance<br />
and savoury notes evolve with<br />
time. Powerful in the mouth,<br />
depth and concentration mixing<br />
savoury characters with<br />
a saline hint. The fruit sways<br />
across the plum, blueberry and<br />
cherry spectrum with spice and<br />
oak notes in support. Relatively<br />
grippy tannins for now.<br />
A powerfully rendered style<br />
that shows potential.<br />

2017 Tohu Whenua Matua<br />
Single Vineyard Upper<br />
Moutere Pinot Noir<br />
Price: $34.99<br />
Rating: Excellent<br />
An alluring perfume leads<br />
the nose, followed by dried<br />
strawberry, spice and savoury<br />
elements. Silky entry before the<br />
tannins flood in: the strawberry<br />
and red cherry fruit dancing<br />
on the palate. There’s a playful,<br />
juicy crunchiness, a little hint of<br />
stalk/herbs, while the structure is<br />
there without intruding.<br />
A delightfully long finish, the<br />
flavours hang in the mouth.<br />
www.tohuwines.co.nz<br />
2017 Craggy Range Aroha<br />
Te Muna Pinot Noir<br />
Price: $150<br />
Rating: Excellent to outstanding<br />

and grows. A sweet fruit core,<br />
wrapped in some whole bunch<br />
stalk notes, wild herbs and<br />
savoury influences. Brightness<br />
from the acidity, underlying<br />
chewiness from the tannins yet<br />
increasing silkiness as it opens<br />
up. Flows to a marvellously long<br />
fruit and savoury-filled finish.<br />
Superb potential.<br />

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

ESSAY WINNER<br />
CHRISTMAS HOME BAKING<br />
Congratulations to Malaika Sequeira who has won the Catholic Agency<br />
for Justice, Peace and Development prize, senior category. This<br />
year the essay and multimedia topic was Enabling Communities –<br />
Everyone has a part to play. Malaika’s winning essay described how<br />
to enable communities to ensure the spirit of participation is extended<br />
to everyone, regardless of intellectual, physical, mental or social<br />
challenges. She showed a sound understanding of the principles of<br />
Catholic Social Teaching, such as Human Dignity, the Common Good,<br />
Solidarity and Subsidiarity. Malaika won a cash prize for herself and her<br />
class and the Justice and Peace Cup for Marian to appreciate for a year.<br />
www.mariancollege.school.nz | 03 385 8449 | exec@mariancollege.school.nz<br />
The giving season lasts all year at Marian, with every student completing at<br />
least six hours of meaningful service within the school and community. Recently<br />
some of our Year 9 and 10 students organised gift-wrapped home baking and<br />
hand-made Christmas cards for families attending the Tafesilafa’i Early Learning<br />
Centre. Marian College has a long tradition of service – both students and staff are<br />
actively involved. Pictured here from left are Anna-Naina Aileone, Taylor Poole-<br />

Julian has lost everything he ever loved and is almost out of time. His<br />

everything still has something left to lose.<br />

Architecturally designed to blend in<br />
to the hill and maximise the sun and<br />
stunning uninterrupted views this 1977<br />
pole house has an air and feel of quality<br />
and longevity about it.<br />
Over engineered and extremely strong,<br />
there are 4 double bedrooms, bathroom<br />
and laundry etc. on the middle level whilst<br />
on the 3rd floor lovely large open plan<br />
living, dining and kitchen flowing on to<br />
a large North, Northwest facing deck,<br />
perfect for drinking in those captivating<br />
and ever changing views.<br />
Cleverly designed to maximise the<br />
winter sun whilst giving some relief from<br />
the summer sun this property is both<br />
sheltered from the prevailing wind and<br />
very very private. Is set over 1723m2 on<br />
2 separate titles which gives the option of<br />
selling one if required. The properties are<br />
both beautifully landscaped and planted<br />
attracting plentiful birdlife and birdsong.<br />
The lower level of the house is a<br />
triple garage with excellent storage and<br />
workshop areas and gives internal access<br />
in to the house. Classical simplicity with<br />
floor to ceiling windows, well insulated<br />
and double glazed, all timbers are treated<br />
and the property is on mains water and<br />
sewerage. Good access and off-street<br />
parking round off a very appealing<br />
package.<br />
This is the first time to the market but<br />
my vendors are retiring reluctantly and<br />
this very special and unique property will<br />
need to have a new owner. Includes boat<br />
shed on Paradise Beach.<br />

Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz<br />
Plenty of kudos for Holden’s big Acadia<br />
Motoring<br />
Ross Kiddie<br />
HOLDEN’S ACADIA didn’t win<br />
the <strong>2019</strong> New Zealand Motoring<br />
Writers’ Guild car of the year<br />
award. That trophy went to<br />
Jaguar’s fully electric I-Pace.<br />
Nevertheless, Holden New Zealand<br />
and General Motors should<br />
be buoyed that its big seven-seat<br />
sport utility vehicle was a finalist.<br />
It went up against some pretty<br />
tough competition – three electric<br />
cars and other notables.<br />
Collectively, I don’t know<br />
where Acadia finished in the<br />
standings but it certainly scored<br />
well in my own personal tally of<br />
points for the COTY.<br />
The big United States built<br />
SUV is doesn’t have a lot of<br />
competition here, sure Toyota’s<br />
Highlander and Jeep Grand<br />
Cherokee are well established but<br />
the Acadia has presence, it is bold<br />
and captures imagination with its<br />
styling that is just a little out of<br />
the mainstream.<br />
The Acadia comes out of the<br />
GMC stable, GMC is an off-shoot<br />
of the giant General Motors conglomerate<br />
that focuses primarily<br />
on trucks and pick-ups. However,<br />
the Acadia distances itself<br />
from the ute market, it is built<br />
on a sophisticated monocoque<br />
floorpan with fully independent<br />
suspension.<br />
HOLDEN ACADIA LTZ-V: Four-wheel-drive provides<br />
substantial cross-country ability.<br />
Under the bonnet sits a 3.6-litre<br />
V6 petrol engine which is rated<br />
at 231kW and 367Nm, these<br />
healthy outputs are realised tall<br />
in the rev band at 6600rpm and<br />
5000rpm respectively. If you<br />
think these figures look familiar,<br />
it’s pretty much the same power<br />
plant that is fitted to the rangetopping<br />
ZB-series Commodore.<br />
The Acadia also gets the same<br />
transmission, it’s a nine-speed<br />
unit that is characterised by<br />
smooth shifts and ratios which<br />
ease the load on the engine so<br />
that respectable fuel economy can<br />
be gleaned.<br />
Because of its size, and weight<br />
(2032kg), the Acadia needs as<br />
much benefit in this department<br />
as it can get. Holden rate it with<br />
a 9.3-litre per 100km (30mpg)<br />
combined cycle rating. By my<br />
reckoning that’s achievable, the<br />
test car was constantly listing<br />
around 10.8l/100km (26mpg),<br />
taking into consideration I did<br />
a lot of around the city driving<br />
which is never conducive to good<br />
economy results.<br />
On the highway the engine<br />
lopes over gently at 1500rpm<br />
at 100km/h in top gear, using<br />
fuel at an instantaneous rate of<br />
7.8l/100km (36mpg).<br />
The Acadia is also a useful offthe-seal<br />
traveller. It lands in both<br />
two-wheel-drive and four-wheeldrive<br />
variants. The test car was the<br />
top spec – LTZ-V, and although<br />
the driveline won’t get to places a<br />
low ratio set-up will take you, the<br />
mechanicals are perfect for low<br />
grip situations such as the skifield<br />
access road, tackling the tracks<br />
leading into those high country<br />
lakes, or taking the boat to the<br />
slipway. For the record, the Acadia<br />
has a 2000kg tow rating and a<br />
203mm ground clearance figure.<br />
It also travels with compliant<br />
suspension travel. Unlike US<br />
vehicles of the past which have<br />
been quite soft in the suspension,<br />
the Acadia’s spring and damper<br />
rates are definitely biased towards<br />
moderate firming, yet comfort<br />
isn’t compromised.<br />
Pushed into a corner there is<br />
just enough steering feel thanks<br />
to beautiful Continental sport<br />
tyres, and they are big at 235/55<br />
x 20in. There is a lot of rubber<br />
on the road and that promotes a<br />
secure feeling of attachment.<br />
Power out of a corner is vivid.<br />
The quad-camshaft engine is a<br />
howler, it works through the rev<br />
band freely but you don’t have<br />
to have it singing to the red line<br />
to get performance, the torque<br />
curve is just broad enough so that<br />
it utilises the mid-range.<br />
However, if you like to have it<br />
breathing freely for a highway<br />
overtake for example, it hunts to<br />
the red line willingly, there was<br />
never a point where I thought the<br />
wrong gear was selected, the way<br />
it arranges those nine ratios is<br />
very clever. On the subject of performance,<br />
the Acadia buyer can<br />
expect a standstill to 100km/h<br />
time of around 7.8sec.<br />
• Price – Holden Acadia<br />
LTZ-V, $71,990<br />
• Dimensions – Length,<br />
4979mm; width, 1916mm;<br />
height, 1762mm<br />
• Configuration – V6,<br />
four-wheel-drive, 3649cc,<br />
231kW, 367Nm, nine-speed<br />
automatic<br />
• Performance –<br />
0-100km/h, 7.8sec<br />
• Fuel usage – 9.3l/100km<br />
As mentioned, the Acadia<br />
lands here in three specification<br />
levels, each with the option of<br />
four-wheel-drive. The entry-level<br />
model lands at $49,990, while the<br />
test car with its high grade trim<br />
and 4WD sits at $71,990. For<br />
that money it is comprehensively<br />
equipped – and you’d expect<br />
nothing less. It is very American<br />
in the way it is trimmed and<br />
it does get all the latest safety<br />
technology that comes out of the<br />
General Motors’ stable.<br />
The Acadia makes no pretense<br />
that it is genuinely American,<br />
its styling is designed to capture<br />
attention, and the luxury feel<br />
inside takes me back to the best<br />
vehicles that have come out of the<br />
States in terms of build quality<br />
and comfort.<br />
However, the Acadia also gets<br />
the benefit of the down under<br />
input. Prior to its release here it<br />
was tested vigorously across the<br />
Tasman for our market. That<br />
development shows, it is an<br />
involving, spirited car that feels<br />
very good to be in.
