TALENT: Sumner’s
Amelia Sykes
broke the 2000m
individual pursuit
record at the
national agegroup
track
championships in
Invercargill.
THE CONVEYER belt of cycling
talent in Canterbury looks set to
continue with Sumner’s Amelia
Sykes.
Amelia, who won national
under-16 titles in 2019 in the
team sprint and team pursuit
led by Lincoln High School’s
Jenna Borthwick last year, has
excelled in her own right at
the national age-group track
championships in Invercargill
last week.
The under-17 rider stepped up
in the 2000m individual pursuit
final and in doing so broke the
national record set last year by
Borthwick, who has this year
progressed to make the New
Zealand team for the junior world
championships. • Turn to page 3

NEW WORLD Redcliffs could be
turned into a Four Square.
Trends show customers’
shopping habits have changed and
it is now unsustainable for the
store on Main Rd to remain as a
New World.
Residents have been using
the store to top up the grocery
shopping they do at other
supermarkets.
Foodstuffs South Island is
currently in consultation with
New World Redcliffs staff over the
proposal.
Both New World and Four
Square are owned by Foodstuffs.
Said Foodstuffs South Island
general retail manager Tim
Donaldson: “We believe a
transition from a New World
to a Four Square presents the
best opportunity for the store to
become sustainable and thrive
into the future.”
He said a Four Square
supermarket would be right at
home in Redcliffs as it could offer
“great value and the wide range of
products.”

about.
In Bay Harbour News today we highlight
achievements of some of our sporting talent
on pages 1, 3 and 5.
Amelia Sykes is one of New Zealand’s most promising cyclists
which was underpinned at the national championships in Invercargill.
Amelia won the 2000m individual pursuit, breaking the New
Zealand record in the process.
On page 3, we report on Sumner’s Luca Tracey, who has been
selected for the New Zealand under-16 touch team. Whether the
team gets to tour Australia is doubtful. But at least he made the
side.

National opportunity for Luca
• By Jacob Page
SUMNER TOUCH rugby
player Luca Tracey has been
selected in the New Zealand
under-16 team to tour Australia.
The 14-year-old year 11
Christchurch Boys’ High School
student, was part of the Canterbury
under-16 team which won
the national title in Auckland in
January after going through the
tournament undefeated.
Luca is also the CBHS under
15 sevens captain who are the
current South Island champions.
The team will meet for a
training camp in Auckland
in July before playing in the
Australian state championships
on the Sunshine Coast in September.
“They had selectors at all our
games at nationals but when

PODIUM EFFORT: Sumner’s Steve Tyro (left) was second in the men’s over-45 event at the New Brighton Duke Festival of Surfing
over the weekend. New Brighton’s Hugh Ritchie (right) won the Duke Trophy as overall men’s champion.
Sumner surfers make podium
• By Jacob Page
A SUMNER surfing duo were
successful at the New Brighton
Duke Festival of Surfing over the
weekend.
Benji Lowen won the under-12
boys event while Steve Tyro was
second in the over-45 men’s
event.
“He [Benji] had amazing final
and a great weekend,” organiser
Mark O’Malley said.
“He’s extremely talented.’’
Benji continued his strong
form after he won a maiden
under-12s title in Greymouth
last month.
A trio of Sumner surfers came
close to claiming the main prize
as well but it was a New Brighton
surfer who stole the show.
Sumner had three of the four
finalists in the open men’s grade
with Cameron Haylock, Ambrose
McNeil and Luke O’Neil
all in with a chance but it was
TRIUMPH: New
Brighton’s Ron
Carter won the
over-70s section.

EVERETT
New Brighton’s Hugh Ritchie
who held his nerve the best to
claim the Duke Trophy.
Haylock was second with Mc-
Neil third and O’Neil fourth.
Conditions were challenging
for all of the 140 surfers who
competed in age-groups from
under-12s to over-70s throughout
the three-day event.
“It was a really successful
weekend but conditions were
challenging all weekend,” Mr
O’Malley said.
“In spite of the challenges,
there were still some really good
scores as the cream always rises
to the top.”
Fellow Sumner surfer Kathryn
Eddyvean won the over-40s
women’s event.
New Brighton’s Tegan Bishop
won the women’s open event.
South Brighton’s Leah Wilson
won the under-16 girls event.
New Brighton’s Ron Carter
won the over-70s event.
Firefighters
to be
honoured
• By Jess Gibson
DIAMOND Harbour residents
will be given the opportunity
to watch the community’s fire
fighters receive recognition for
their hard work.
The Diamond Harbour Volunteer
Fire Brigade’s annual award
ceremony is set to be held on Sunday
from 2pm at the memorial
hall on Waipapa Ave.
It is the first time residents have
been invited along, and chief fire
officer Bob Palmer is excited to
“show off” what members, who
are also medical first responders,
have achieved.
There will be long service medals,
Queen’s Service Medals and
gold stars as well as plaques and
certificates.
Mr Palmer said the other
reason the brigade decided to
make the ceremony public was
so the community could be acknowledged
for all their support,
especially as it fundraises for a
new 4WD rapid response vehicle.
At the ceremony, employers
of volunteers will be recognised
for allowing them to respond to
callouts during work hours.
The cut-off date to reply was on
Friday.

Car boot sale rebooted
• By Jess Gibson
A SOCIAL and sustainable
event has been given a
reboot.
The Great Mt Pleasant,
Redcliffs and Sumner Car
Boot Sale takes place on Sunday,
for the first time since
immediately after the February
22, 2011, earthquake.
It was the only time the
event was held, and it was a
way for people to declutter
while moving out of their
damaged homes.
However, while event coordinator
Linda Rutland
said residents kept asking
Linda
Rutland
when the
next one
was, there
was never
enough energy
to keep
it going.
But now
Ms Rutland
said
the energy is back and she
is hoping to give residents
and the close-knit community
“another opportunity
to get together.”
“It’s also really about
giving the community the
chance to be sustainable,”
she said.
“There will be a variety of
stuff depending on
what the people selling
are interested in, some
of it will be second-hand
and some of it will be craft
stuff.”
The event will run from
9.30am until noon in the
Mt Pleasant Community
Centre car park.
If you would like to
reserve a $10 car park, or if
you want to know more
information about the
event, email Ms Rutland

Hands in the air!
There’s activity in the auction room! Whether it is on site
or in our auction rooms we are seeing a lot more hands
in the air and active bidding among buyers trying to win
the auction race. In fact we’re seeing more buyers forcing
the pace by submitting very tempting pre-auction offers
on properties in an attempt to outsmart other buyers
before they have a chance to complete their due diligence
and get their ducks in a row. It’s certainly not a bad tactic
in a moving market. And make no mistake, the market is
definitely moving. With interest rates still at a record low,
with the likelihood they may even go lower, buyers are
jumping into the market as soon as they can to beat any
possible price rise.
What should you do? Well if you are keen to secure
a property in the current period, our advice is to get
yourself in the best possible position to buy when the
right property comes along. Speak to a finance broker to
find out what you can borrow. If possible get a Finance
pre-approval in place. Engage with a solicitor so you
can send any documentation through for them to
peruse before bidding
at auction or submitting
an offer. Go to as many
open homes as you can,
even to properties that
may not initially meet
your requirements. It’s
important to have a clear
idea of what properties
are available and what you
can expect in your price
range. Attend auctions,
both onsite and inrooms
so you can see how the
bidding works and what happens if the bidding doesn’t
reach the owners reserve price.
Remember, the more knowledge you have around
the market and the process of buying then the better
prepared you will be when the right property comes
along. Good luck

Spotlight on boat emissions and activity
in Lyttelton and Akaroa harbours
Environment
Canterbury’s
regional
harbourmaster
Jim Dilley puts
a spotlight
on vessel
emissions and
activity in the Bay Harbour
area
ENVIRONMENT Canterbury
has recently received several
inquiries about atmospheric
emissions from vessels in
Akaroa and Lyttelton harbours,
including those from the Banks
Peninsula Community Board.
With this sort of communitywide
interest, we want to share
all relevant information, including
the rules and practices in use,
with as many people as possible.
What are the current rules?
As a regional council, we
are not in a position to set the
law that controls atmospheric
discharges from vessels – it is for
central government to do that.
In fact, the Government has
announced plans to introduce
regulations for the prevention of
air pollution from vessels by late
2021.
The proposed legislation is
based on international regulations
(MARPOL Annex VI) that
already apply to most foreign
vessels that visit New Zealand.
Compliance with MARPOL Annex
VI is achieved by using lowsulphur
fuel or fitting an exhaust
cleaning system known as a
‘scrubber’ to reduce emissions to
EMISSIONS: Vessel emissions have been highlighted by Environment Canterbury’s regional
harbourmaster Jim Dilley.
PHOTO: GETTY IMAGES
a level equivalent to those from
low-sulphur fuel.
Vessels visiting Canterbury are
generally flagged to countries
where Annex VI applies.
This means that these vessels
are either burning a low-sulphur
fuel or using scrubbers when
visiting Akaroa or other areas.
We have issued guidance to
vessels to help them to ensure
they comply with all legislation
regarding both emissions and
discharges.
A copy of that advice is
available on the Environment
Canterbury website www.
ecan.govt.nz/do-it-online/
harbourmasters-office/
commercial-shipping/cruiseships
What role do scrubbers play?
Broadly, there are two types of
exhaust scrubber:
•Closed-loop scrubbers – these
use a closed system that retains
all wash water and contaminates
onboard the vessel for proper
disposal ashore at approved
facilities.
•Open-loop scrubbers – these
use a system that discharges
wash water to sea, which may
have a secondary system to
remove contaminants from discharged
wash water.
The use of scrubbers does not
mean there will be no visible
emissions from a vessel; scrubbers
remove some, but not all,
contaminants. The mechanism
used by scrubbers to remove
contaminants may include the
use of water droplets being
sprayed into the exhaust gas.
This helps remove the contaminants,
but also produces
steam which may be visible when
it exits from a vessel’s funnel
along with exhaust.
Some open-loop scrubbers
remove contaminants from the
exhaust and then discharge the
contaminates to sea.
Again, while regional
councils are not able to enact
laws preventing this type of
discharge while the vessel is
moving, we do inform operators
that our communities expect
vessels to use a system that
removes contaminants from any
discharge to sea.
In addition, where a vessel is
at anchor or in a port, the use
of open-loop scrubbers is not
permitted.
Is air quality a problem in
Akaroa or Lyttelton?
Finally, a note of reassurance;
we have conducted detailed
studies of air quality at
Lyttleton and found that it
is comfortably within World
Health Organisation and
national guidelines – in spite of
significantly greater shipping,
rail and road traffic than is the
case in Akaroa.
Given this, we can also be
confident there are no issues
in Akaroa related to air quality
from vessels.
Feedback closes soon…
Don’t forget to have your say!

Your Local Views
Readers have their say on
the recent articles on the
360 Trail group’s proposal
to build a pathway beside
the Bromley oxidation
ponds and the effect this
may have on birds.
Spenser Holmes – I read
with interest your article regarding
the proposed pathway near
the migratory birds in the estuary.
It seems to me that the answer
is blatantly clear, redirect the
pathway away from the birds.
Apparently there is an alternate
route.
The city council report puts the
risk to the birds as low to moderate.
Moderate sounds scary and
low is even too darn high in a
world where biodiversity is on the
run and even the city council has
declared for a climate emergency.
The 360 trail people are thinking
like dinosaurs, it is a new
world out there and any nonessential
disturbance of nature
isn’t on. Having a pathway by the
water isn’t essential, nice maybe
but not essential. Maintaining
the health and viability of the
migratory birds is essential.
As for the city council, my oh
my, not a lick of commonsense
there. Didn’t the fact that the estuary
is part of an internationally
recognised flyway register the
fact that extreme care was necessary
when planning the route of
the pathway, obviously not?
Emma Lynch – I find it
difficult to believe that the
proposed 360 walkway will have
a low to moderate ecological
effect.
Having witnessed the coastal
pathway remove the tern’s
roosting area, wading birds
no longer feeding up to the
estuary edge due to human
disturbance and dogs now being
exercised in the estuary bed,
it is astonishing that the 360
interest group proposes that they
are able to mitigate against any
environmental effects of another
walkway.
Many of the birds in the
estuary are already deemed at
risk or declining.
We need to be protecting this
fragile estuary ecosystem, and
maybe, in this case, leaving
footprints is just too damaging.
THE BLACK oystercatcher or
toreapango with its bright orange
bill, red eye and orange eye
ring is the “cousin’ of the pied
oystercatcher, which are black
and white. They are only found
in New Zealand, adding to the
importance of a healthy estuary
to ensure their survival.
Like its cousin, this everhungry
bird, eats day and night
and can be seen on the mudflats
busily ‘jogging to and fro’ looking
for cockles, crabs and marine
worms.
Having adapted somewhat to
our urban environment it also
feeds on earthworms and grubs
in the Linwood Paddocks and the
McCormacks Bay sport field.
They like their nest simple;
making a small indent in dirt,
dunes or on the beach among a
few sticks or a little vegetation.
This method makes eggs and
chicks extremely easy victims
from human activities such as
walkers, four-wheel-drive vehicles
and motor-cycles. They will
BIRDS OF THE ESTUARY
Tanya Jenkins is the manager of the Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust, a nonprofit
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.
Hungry bird eats night and day
try to defend their nest fiercely
though, so if you see a pair of
black oystercatchers running
around erratically or even flying
up in the air just above you making
a lot of noise, then know that
they are protecting eggs or chicks
– so please, walk away and stay
well clear of them.
Last year just over 130 of these
birds have been counted in and
around our estuary which, like
with many other bird species
in and around our estuary, is a

vast number of the entire world
population.
Sadly, numbers are declining,
so how can we help these birds
thrive? Keep dogs on the lead
when walking near the estuary as
to not disturb them while feeding
or resting.
Do not gather shellfish from
the mudflats as we need to ensure
large numbers of cockles are
present for the birds.
Gathering also disturbs the
birds from feeding.

How is COVID-19 spread?
What is COVID-19?
COVID-19 is a new illness that can affect your lungs and airways. It’s caused by a type
of coronavirus. There are simple steps you can take to protect you and your family/whānau.
How is it spread?
COVID-19, like the flu, can be spread from person to person. When a person who
has COVID-19 coughs, sneezes or talks, they may spread droplets containing the virus
a short distance, which quickly settle on surrounding surfaces.
You may get infected by the virus if you touch those surfaces or objects and then
touch your mouth, nose or eyes.
That’s why it’s really important to use good hygiene, regularly wash and thoroughly
dry your hands, and use good cough etiquette.
What can I do to stop COVID-19 spreading?
•Cough or sneeze into your elbow or by covering your mouth and nose with tissues.
•Put used tissues in the bin or a bag immediately.
•Wash your hands with soap and water often (for at least 20 seconds).
•Try to avoid close contact with people who are unwell.
•Don’t touch your eyes, nose or mouth if your hands are not clean.
•Avoid personal contact, such as kissing, sharing cups or food with sick people.
•Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces and objects, such as doorknobs.
•Stay home if you feel unwell and call Healthline on 0800 358 5453.

What the Business of Death Can Teach the

Stars of the hit television series The Casketeers, Francis
and Kaiora Tipene aren’t your typical funeral directors.
With their famous humour and big-hearted personalities,
the TVNZ and Netflix reality TV stars are changing the way
we think about death and grief.
Life as a Casketeer reveals how Francis and Kaiora grew up
in families that had few possessions but were rich with love and tikanga, and
how they came to work in their often misunderstood profession. It’s also a
book about the Maori world view and traditional funeral customs. The Tipenes
make death feel less mysterious and life feel more precious.
But most of all, Life as a Casketeer is a love story - for whanau, for culture
and for each other. It is full of joy and sorrow, tears and laughter.

The independent women of Scotland stand up to a witch hunt, male fury and
the power of the Church in a battle for survival in this compelling historical
novel based on true events in early eighteenth century Scotland. 1703: The
wild east coast of Scotland.
Returning to her home town of Pittenweem, fishwife and widow Sorcha
McIntyre knows she faces both censure and mistrust. After all, this is a
country where myth and legend are woven into the fabric of the everyday, a
time when those who defy custom like Sorcha has are called to account.
It is dangerous to be a clever woman who ‘doesn’t know her place’ in
Pittenweem - a town rife with superstition. So, when a young local falls
victim to witchcraft, the Reverend Cowper and the townsfolk know who to
blame. What follows for Sorcha and her friends is a terrifying battle, not only
for their souls, but for their lives, as they are pitted against the villagers’ fear,
a malevolent man and the might of the church.
Based on the shocking true story of the witch hunt of Pittenweem, this multilayered
novel is a beautifully written historical tale of the strength of women
united against a common foe, by one of Australia’s finest writers.

Sedan boosts Toyota Corolla load space
TOYOTA NEW Zealand is
pulling no punches marketing its
Corolla range.
Not only are there a handful of
new variants within the range -
bearing in mind the latest generation
series landed here just over
two years ago - but a fresh pricing
structure makes for value-packed
buying across sedan, hatchback
and wagon options.
I recently evaluated the new
wagon and remarked on its
value at just below $30k; another
newcomer is the SX sedan and it
is the subject of this evaluation. It
is also value at $32,990, and to be
honest if I was a buyer I couldn’t
choose between the two, I particularly
like wagons and sedans,
and both have special appeal,
although the sedan with its 2-litre
engine against 1.8-litre for the
wagon may just tip the balance.
And SX grade is certainly for
me, it translates to cloth interior
trim, but it also has plenty of other
goodies to keep me happy in the
cabin such as sat nav, paddle shifters,
and radar cruise control. The
latter is part of the Toyota Sense
suite of safety kit that is fitted
throughout the Corolla range and
it is state-of-the-art, easily earning
a five-star Australasian New Car
Assessment Program rating.
A totally new platform was developed
for the latest generation
Corolla, and it formed the basis
for the extensive array of body
styles that all sit on a complex
fully independent suspension system.
This draws me to the range,
I like the idea of all four corners
working in their own way and
with the spring and damper rates
set to a medium compromise the
Corolla sedan feels sporty and
well attached to the road.
In saying that, the SX variant
rides on 205/55 x 16in Dunlop
rubber, there’s nothing wrong
with the handling and the tyres
are very quiet, but if I was a
buyer I think I’d opt for an 18in
wheel which is standard on other
Corolla models, they would offer
a lot more presence.
There are no surprises under
the bonnet, well there are in some
ways, the new sedan is available
as a hybrid as well.
However, the SX is solely reliant
on petrol power, its 2-litre engine
is now well-established into the
Corolla hatch and sedan, and it
is a no-nonsense unit with power
figures of 125kW and 200Nm, the
outputs realised at 6600rpm and
4100rpm respectively.
While the latter would appear
to make the engine peaky, that’s
not the case, the engine is happy
to work low down, and with its
TOYOTA COROLLA SEDAN: Huge boot space.
pairing to a continuously variable
transmission the engine finds its
happy place through the midrange.
Toyota have worked hard
with the CVT system, it now works
almost like a traditional torque
converter automatic with physical
gears, it is a 10-step system and can
be locked into any pre-set step by
sequentially using the main gearshift
lever or paddles.
As an aside, there’s also a sport
mode which heightens engine
urgency and adjusts the way the
ratio works so that acceleration
can be ushered in just that little
bit quicker. Toyota claims a 9.2sec
standstill to 100km/h time, while
by my stopwatch a 5.4sec 80km/h
to 120km/h overtaking time can
be achieved.
These figures relate to brisk
motoring, the beauty of a 2-litre
engine is that it’s not working
hard, the sedan weighs in at
around 1300kg, which means a
healthy power-to-weight ratio.
That also means the engine isn’t
working hard for the majority
of the time and that translates
to respectable fuel usage figures.
Toyota also claims a six-litre per
100km combined cycle average.
That correlates well with the fuel
usage display within the car, it
was constantly listing around
7.1l/100km with 5l/100km showing
instantaneously at 100km/h.
What makes the fuel usage figures
so appealing is that I evaluated
the Corolla sedan on one of
the hottest days of Christchurch’s
summer. Normally, I never use air
conditioning, but with temperatures
hovering around 35 deg C I
had the air on most of the time.
Combining good performance
and economy isn’t achieved easily,
but given the Corolla’s long
history that’s something Toyota
has been able to work on over the
years, it is wonderfully efficient,
yet all models feel feisty and
there’s just that element of sporty
appeal that will lure those who
like to push along a bit when the

open road beckons.
It’s also nice to know that when
the long straights run out there
is a chassis underneath that is
capable of dealing with the twists
and turns without affecting the
level of comfort we have come to
expect from one of the automotive
world’s most successful
nameplates.
For the record, Toyota lists the
sedan’s boot space with a load capacity
of 470-litres, that compares
to 294-litres for the hatch and
390-litres for the wagon. Interesting
figures which will certainly
get those who are looking for
load space scratching their heads.
Toyota is pushing hard the
hybrid message, however, there’s
still a lot of life left in petrol only
engines only. The Corolla in all
forms is a fuel miser and I’d find
it a difficult choice to choose
between either.
However, the SX sedan
certainly captures my attention
for its honesty and all round
appeal.
