Interim principal appointed for Haeata
PEGGY BURROWS has been
appointed as the new interim
principal of Haeata Community
Campus.
Dr Burrows will replace current
principal Andy Kai Fong
who is moving to Dubai. She will
fill the role for the first two terms
next year.
Dr Burrows is the former
principal of Rangiora High
School and her appointment will
enable Haeata’s board of trustees
to conduct a robust recruitment
process to find the long-term
replacement for Mr Kai Fong.
“Finding an experienced
school manager for an interim
period can be challenging for any
school, so the board is excited
that Peggy has agreed to take on
the role for the next two terms,”
said board chairwoman Sam Uta’i.
Dr Burrows is a successful educator
with experience in primary,
secondary and tertiary sectors
of the New Zealand education
system.
She was principal at Rangiora
High School from 2003 until
2015 where she managed 200
staff and grew the school role
from 1276 to 1801 students.
During her tenure, she oversaw
the development of the new innovative
learning environment at
Rangiora High School.
“That background will be very

Campus for

next year.
helpful working at Haeata with
our vision around modern learning
practices and modern learning
spaces,” said Ms Uta’i.
Dr Burrows has a reputation
of developing leaders in her staff
and during her tenure at Rangiora
High School, the school
produced 11 assistant principals,
four deputy principals, one associate
principal and one principal.
She had a strong relationship
with her school, but was forced
to step down after a dispute
with her employer, before the
Employment Court later ruled
that she should not have been
removed.
Ms Uta’i said the board
are aware of this history
and comfortable with their
appointment.
“Our board includes several
experienced, well-connected
educators and we have used
their networks to do an in-depth
vetting process, so the board is
confident Peggy will be a great
asset for Haeata.”
Dr Burrows holds a PhD from
Canterbury University, which
explored bicultural/kaupapa
Māori leadership principles.
Most recently, Dr Burrows
has been teaching a year 6, 7
and 8 class at Waipara School
and worked with the College of
Education in the professional
learning and teacher education
programme.
In Brief
PLAYGROUND UPGRADES
Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board has
approved the refurbishment of
two playgrounds at a combined
total of $165,000. Radley
Playground, in Woolston and
King Park Playground, in Mt
Pleasant, are reaching the
end of their lifespan and will
receive new equipment for
a range of ages and abilities.
Construction is likely to start
in May or June 2020.
CYCLING CONCERNS
Concerns around the lack
of cycling infrastructure
close to popular recreation
spots have been expressed.
These concerns were raised
with the Spreydon-Cashmere
Community Board at its
December 3 meeting. The
person who addressed the
board said they have noticed
more people biking to
recreation destinations but
often these places do not have
facilities such as cycle stands.
SURF AND SKATE GRANT
The North Wai Boardriders
Club in North New Brighton
has received $1000 towards
its Surf and Skate Holiday
Programme. The grant came
from the Coastal-Burwood
Community Board’s

Leroy’s beard no more
• By Devon Bolger
LEROY BROWN was relieved
to see he had just one chin after
shaving off his beard for men’s
health.
The Woolston resident and
popular staff member of the
Famous Grouse Hotel in Lincoln
lost his distinctive beard of three
years in front of patrons on club
night last Tuesday.
He had pledged the beard
would go if $5000 was raised for
Movember.
That figure was surpassed and
$6000 will go to the charity dedicated
to men’s health.
“I was pretty nervous when I
found out I would lose it at first
but I settled in when I realised it
was all going to a good cause and
I was happy to be involved,” said
Mr Brown.
He was initially planning on
growing out the beard again.
“I was planning on growing it
straight back but from everyone’s
comments, I’m not overly sure.
“There’s been a lot of opinions
to stay shaven so we will see if the
pressure gets the best of me,” Mr
Brown said.
He was amazed at the amount
of money raised.
“Everyone should be very
proud, it was quite a feat and we
could make a real difference.
BEFORE AND AFTER: Leroy Brown surpassed his fundraising goal of $5000 for men’s health and
cut his beard off.

BIRDS OF
THE ESTUARY
Tanya Jenkins is
the manager of the
Avon-Heathcote
Estuary Ihutai
Trust, a non-profit
organisation
formed in 2002 to protect one of
New Zealand’s most important
coastal wetlands. Each week she
introduces a new bird found in the
estuary. Her column aims to raise
the understanding of the values
and uniqueness of the area.
THE AMAZING native Bartailed
Godwits breeds in Alaska.
And each September, when the
harsh Alaskan winter sets in
they fly an astonishing 12000km
non-stop at an average speed of
70km/h to Australia and New
Zealand estuaries where they
spend our summer here with us.
Our Avon-Heathcote estuary/
Ihutai host just over 1500 birds
this year. Numbers are unfortunately
slowly declining.
Godwits feed on small cockles
and pipi, crabs, marine worms and
small insects.
Each year in March they return
to Alaska for another breeding
season with only one stop along
the way in estuaries around the
Yellow Sea to feed before continuing
to Alaska. A journey of some
14,000km. Godwits are among
some of the longest distance migrating
birds in the world.
How can we help these very shy
birds? Keep dogs on the lead when
walking near the estuary and pick
up litter.
Now that exams are over,
kickstart your career in 2020!

Tunnel to be drilled under Heathcote River
A TUNNEL is set to be drilled
under the Heathcote River
and through Woolston next
month as part of the Lyttelton
Harbour wastewater project.
A 535-metre pipeline will
be pulled through the tunnel
under the river and the Ferry
Rd roundabout by a method
called directional drilling.
It will then connect the
Alport Pl pump station to the
Heathcote Valley pipeline,
the final step of a project to
connect Lyttelton Harbour’s
wastewater system to the main
Christchurch system.
Part of Ferry Rd from St
Johns St to the Ferry Rd
roundabout will be closed to
install the pipeline from 8pm
January 25 to 10am January
26.
This work is part of the
fourth and final stage of the
project, that once complete,
will put an end to the routine
discharge of treated wastewater
into Lyttelton Harbour.
Up until now wastewater
from Lyttelton, Governors
Bay and Diamond Harbour
has been treated at wastewater
treatment plants in each of
the townships before being
discharged through outfall
pipelines into Lyttelton Harbour.
“This project, when completed,
will end the routine
CLEANER: A tunnel will be drilled under the Heathcote River to put an end to the
discharge of treated wastewater into Lyttelton Harbour
discharge of treated wastewater
into Lyttelton Harbour, a
fantastic environmental milestone
for our city,” said city
council head of three waters
and waste Helen Beaumont.
The multimillion-dollar
project is being constructed
in four stages, with stages one
and two now complete and
stage four set for completion
in early 2020.
In stage three, the existing
wastewater treatment plants at
Cashin Quay, Governors Bay
and Diamond Harbour are
being converted into pump
stations to pipe all of Lyttelton
Harbour’s wastewater through
the Lyttelton Tunnel.
The Cashin Quay treatment
plant has been converted and
the pump station is being
tested before commissioning.
The new Diamond Harbour
pump station is on track for
commissioning this month.
Work on the new pump
station on Lyttelton’s Simeon
Quay is now expected to be
complete by next October,
due to a redesign of the pump
station, with the entire wastewater
network commissioned
in late 2020.
This pump station will be
the powerhouse that pumps
all of the harbour’s wastewater
through Lyttelton Tunnel and
the Heathcote Valley pipeline
to the main Christchurch
system.
“Due to the intricate nature
of the pump station, we need
to take a bit more time to get
the design right,” Ms Beaumont
said.
“It’s important to note this is
still being delivered well ahead
time and will meet council’s
target of ending the discharge
of treated wastewater into Lyttelton
Harbour by 2021.”
The city council is working
with Environment Canterbury,
Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke,
Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu
and Lyttelton Port Company
and harbour communities to
improve water quality in Lyttelton
Harbour as part of the
Whaka-Ora Healthy Harbour
Plan.

Cutting a path to a new direction in life
• By Bea Gooding
GROWING UP, Zarian
Taungahihifo never experienced
being in the spotlight.
The 19-year-old encountered
issues many young people of
today commonly face – a lack of
direction after high school or the
discovery of one’s identity and
place in the world.
Rubbing shoulders with
the “wrong crowd” pulled Mr
Taungahihifo down a dangerous
path of drugs and delinquency
at a young age, but after a sitdown
with his father, he decided
enough was enough.
“One day I sat down with my
dad and evaluated where I was
at, and nothing positive was happening.
So we started looking for
other options,” he said.
He undertook work experience
at The Barber Lounge for a few
months before being offered
an apprenticeship through the
Ministry of Social Development’s
Mana and Mahi programme,
designed to help young people
acquire valuable qualifications
and skills.
It was not long before he tasted
success, competing at the New
Zealand Association of Registered
Hairdressers competition
at Ara Institute of Canterbury,
which showcased talent from
hairdressers and barbers nationwide
last August.
Said Mr Taungahihifo: “Growing
up my whole life the spotlight
has never been on me, and
to hear my name being called
out for first place was pretty
overwhelming.”
He took out the top prize in
two categories – Men’s En Trend
TRANSFORMATION: Barber Zarian Taungahihifo has gone from mixing with the wrong crowd to
claiming a top award at the New Zealand Association of Registered Hairdressers competition.
PHOTOS: GEOFF SLOAN
Classic Barbering: The Fade and
the Ray Astwood Barbering
Award, both in the new talent
category.
He said his proudest
achievement would not have
been possible without the
mentorship and support of his
“family” at The Barber Lounge in
Papanui who welcomed him like
a brother.
“I love life a lot better now.
I’m in a better headspace, in a
better environment and around
positive people who have goals,”
he said.
“Back then I was hanging out
with people who would only put
me in the wrong positions and
didn’t really care about me.”
It has been said that it takes a
village to raise a child, and The
Barber Lounge senior barber
Lucas Kelly felt this to be true.
Mr Kelly and the team were
the driving force behind Mr
Taungahihifo’s success, instilling
in him the Polynesian way of
humility, respect and hospitality.
Said Mr Taungahihifo: “Once
I started working at the lounge,
I learned how to respect myself,
the peers around me and to just
be myself.”
Mr Kelly saw himself in
the 19-year-old when he went
through similar issues in his own
life, fuelling his desire to mentor
the teenager.
“That’s what I identified
in Zarian when I met him,
that he was just a new generation
of what I was, growing up
with similar backgrounds,” he
said,
“Something that stuck out
was if I had someone like me
when I was in my own situation,
I would’ve wished somebody
would help me too.”
Born and bred in Mairehau,
Mr Taungahihifo was in a
“tough place” during school
when he was bullied for his size,
and dealing with the separation
of his parents as a child.
“I was a bit of a bully too as I
got older because I was lacking
self-confidence, so it made me
feel better about myself,” he said.
As much as it was a learning
curve, he believed that in the future
he would become a mentor
for someone else, passing on the
knowledge and experiences that
were shown to him.
Said Mr Taungahihifo: “With
what’s happened to me, I want to
change someone else’s life
too, someone who was in my
position and be like how Lucas is
to me.”
Amongst the pumping
music, buzzing conversations
and warmth of brotherhood
within the walls of The Barber
Lounge, Mr Taungahihifo was
proud of his journey and perseverance.
He advised young people stuck
in a difficult situation to surround
themselves with positive
people and to take a chance on
something new.
“Don’t be scared, I was, but
once you step through that door
of being scared, the sooner you
step outside your comfort zone,”
he said.
From public speaking, finishing
his qualification, entering
next year’s NZARH competition
and attending industry awards
– 2020 will prove to be a big year
for Mr Taungahihifo.
“In a short space of time, a lot
has changed and it’s only going
to go up from here.”

Squawkzilla and the Giants
Canterbury Museum’s summer blockbuster
The now world-famous giant parrot,
Squawkzilla, and the monster penguins
of Waipara are the stars of Canterbury
Museum’s new exhibition Ancient New
Zealand: Squawkzilla and the Giants.
The exhibition is a chance to explore two
of New Zealand’s lost worlds.
Near Waipara, North Canterbury,
palaeontologists have found fossils
from more than 60 million years ago
which show that giant penguins swam
in the warm oceans around the ancient
subcontinent of Zealandia.
Twenty million years ago, Central
Otago was submerged beneath a lake
10 times the size of today’s Lake Taupō.
Fossils from ancient the lake bed include
species of crocodile, turtles, a flamingolike
bird and a burrowing bat, together
with Squawkzilla, at one-metre high, the
world’s largest parrot.
At Squawkzilla and the Giants, visitors
can come face to face with life-sized
models of New Zealand’s lost giants
– including 1.6-metre tall penguin
Crossvallia waiparensis. There’s also
real fossils on display alongside modern
bird specimens from the Museum’s
collection.
The Museum has created a set of
collectable cards featuring extinct
animals from the exhibition. Visitors
can collect a pack of these cards after
completing an activity sheet with
questions about the exhibition.
Ancient New Zealand: Squawkzilla
and the Giants opens 13 December
2019 at Canterbury Museum.

Summer Holiday Attraction guide
Great racing action at
Woodford Glen
Without doubt the three big meetings not to be missed this
season at the Glen will be our Annual Boxing Day Ramp Race
derby, the New Zealand Stockcar Grand Prix in January and the
2020 New Zealand Super Saloon Champs in February.
At this stage it is expected the entry list to the New Zealand
Stockcar Grand Prix will be well over 100 drivers whilst the New
Zealand Super Saloon title should see at least 60 entrants from the
best drivers all over the country.
Before we head in to these two major championships we can
look forward to one of Canterbury’s iconic speedway events held
every Boxing Day for well over 20 years. The Ramp Race Derby
brings out many Canterbury families and holiday makers and
with a full house expected again this year make sure you look at
pre-buying your tickets now from the Woodford Glen Shop in
Richmond.
The New Zealand Stockcar Grand Prix is set to offer speedway
and Stockcar fans an action packed two nights of racing as we
attempt to reduce the 100 plus entrants down to a field of just
30 cars to context the finals of the 2020 Stockcar Grand Prix.
Stockcar racing is unique and isn’t for the faint hearted. Unlike
most forms of motorsport Stockcar racing allows the drivers
to crash and bash their opponents as they all attempt to be the
winner. Come the finals night, you will witness club mates from
all over New Zealand doing their utmost to ensure someone
from their city stands atop the winner’s podium.
If it is high speed thrills you seek over the holiday period
make sure you are trackside at Ko-ken Tools Woodford Glen
Speedway to catch the great racing action!

Interdenominational
Christmas
Anglican
is so much more
than tinsel and trees
Anglican
There seems to be more and
more to do at Christmas these
days, Anglican from choosing between
traditional or up-to-theminute
decoration colour
schemes through to worrying
about having a ‘beach-ready
body’ and buying presents,
food and bubbles.
With all the hype and pressure
around the season, it’s easy
to forget that Christmas is in
fact a faith-based celebration
of Presbyterian
the birth of Jesus Christ
and a time to come together
Presbyterian
in worship. Churches across
the city are recognising
Christmas and what it means
for Christians in a number of
ways, often with music at the
centre.
Most churches offer Carol
Services encouraging us all
to raise our voices in the
seasonal songs we remember
from our childhood, as well as
concerts, talks and recitals.
It is a time when churches
and faith-based organisations
remind us of how fortunate
Presbyterian
Christmas at the
Transitional Cathedral
Anglican
we are and that it is possible
to give gifts of hope that will
make a true difference at
this time of year. Christmas
is, after all, about giving nor
receiving.
So why not take a moment
away wrapping the expensive
electronics to reflect on the
true meaning of the season
and call into your nearest
church – all are always
welcome, regardless of their
faith, and especially so at
Christmas.
Preheat the oven to 150
deg C. and arrange a rack
in the lower third. Remove
any plastic packaging or
netting from the ham. Trim
away the rind and discard.
Set the ham aside to rest
at room temperature for
1-2hr.
Line a baking tray or
dish with several sheets of
aluminium foil or baking
paper if you prefer (it will
make clean-up a lot easier).
Remove the rind or skin
of the ham, ensuring you
leave the fat on. Using a
sharp knife score a 2-3cm
wide diamond pattern
(don’t cut more than 5mm
deep) over the entire ham.
Place the ham in the baking
tray; pour ⅓ cup of water
into the base of the pan
and cover the ham with
two pieces of foil or baking
paper and bake for 30min.
Meanwhile, heat the
butter in a small pot or
saucepan over medium
heat until golden browned.
Add in the brown sugar,
honey, mustard, cinnamon
and cloves, stirring to mix
together well until the
brown sugar has completely
dissolved, (about 2min).
Reduce heat to low and
add in the garlic. Allow it to
become fragrant, cooking
for a further minute or two
until the glaze just begins
to simmer, then set it aside
and let cool to lukewarm
(the glaze should be the
consistency of roomtemperature
honey).
After 30min baking time,
carefully remove the ham
from the oven and increase
the oven temperature to
220 deg C. Discard the
foil or parchment paper
and pour ⅓ of the glaze all
over the ham, brushing in
between the cuts to evenly
cover. Return to the oven
and bake uncovered for
15min.
Remove from the oven,
brush with another third
of the glaze and some of
the pan juices, and repeat
again after 15min more
minutes of baking until a
dark golden-brown crust
has formed, (about 30min
total). For added depth of
flavour, mix some of the
ham pan juices together
with the glaze in the pot
which will help keep it
runny enough for brushing.
If your crust is still pink
after there suggested baking
time, turn on your broiler
(or oven grill), and allow it
to broil for 2-5min, while
keeping an eye on it so
it doesn’t burn from the
sugar.
Let the ham rest 10-
20min before slicing.
NOTES
If your glaze has been
over simmered and begins
to thicken between each
baste, add some of the
pan juices to it and heat it
up over low heat until it
warms through and is the
consistency of warmed
honey.

REAL ESTATE
Make every day feel
like a holiday...
6 Dudley Road, Lyttelton
Price reduced to $689,000
3 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | 1 kitchen | 2 living rooms
1 office/study | 1 workshop | 2 car garage | Listing VTP143
Set on an extensively landscaped 847m²
fully fenced section, this 3-bedroom home
enjoys breath-taking harbour views.
An added bonus is the sunroom that
would make a perfect office or hobby room
and completing the appeal is basement
storage, double garage, studio and
workshop.
The open plan living provides fantastic
indoor/outdoor flow with double doors
that open to a large deck that wraps around
the front of the home, overlooking the
harbour.
With the spacious master bedroom
opening out to the deck it offers the perfect
spot for that morning coffee.
Upstairs the home is kept warm with a
heatpump plus the added benefit of a DVS
ventilation.
Our owners have called this home for
more than 30 years, but it is now time for
someone else to own this little piece of
paradise.
Why not wake up and feel like you are on
holiday every day!
Lyttelton has so much on offer, fall
in love with the views and the amazing
community. Surrounded by fabulous
walkways, perfect picnic spots, beaches,
great eateries, farmers markets plus a whole
harbour to enjoy all aquatic activities.
Owners want this sold, make an offer.
Don’t let this one get away...call me today!
