coastline<br />

change<br />

THE PUBLIC will be able to<br />

help track how New Brighton’s<br />

coastline is changing over time.<br />

Camera cradles have been<br />

installed at New Brighton Pier to<br />

encourage people to take part in<br />

the CoastSnap community science<br />

project.<br />

CoastSnap relies on the public<br />

taking photos at the same<br />

locations at different times and<br />

sending them to the city council.<br />

This will help determine how<br />

coastlines are changing over time<br />

due to human activity and natural<br />

processes such as storms, rising<br />

sea levels and day-to-day changes<br />

in the beach structure.<br />

Camera cradles have also been<br />

set up at Taylors Mistake to track<br />

how its coastline is changing.<br />

Said city council head of<br />

planning and strategic transport<br />

David Griffiths: “We have set up<br />

camera cradles at Taylors Mistake<br />

and on the New Brighton Pier<br />

in the hope that visitors to those<br />

locations will take part in the<br />

project by taking a photo and<br />

sharing it on the CoastSnap app,<br />

via Twitter or Instagram, or by<br />

emailing coastsnapchch@ccc.<br />

Yacht club celebrates 100 years<br />

PLEASANT POINT Yacht<br />

Club celebrates its centennial<br />

this weekend.<br />

The club, now based in South<br />

New Brighton Park, began in<br />

1921 on the shores of the estuary<br />

just behind where the South<br />

New Brighton School is today.<br />

The area was then known as<br />

Pleasant Point Domain.<br />

In 1929 the club moved across<br />

to the western shore to an area<br />

of mud flats at the mouth of the<br />

Avon River that would become<br />

known as Rat Island.<br />

Over the years, the club built<br />

up and improved the land<br />

together with the club facilities<br />

and held summer sailing and<br />

racing programmes, teaching<br />

hundreds of children and<br />

adults how to sail. That was<br />

until the first of the Canterbury<br />

earthquakes on September 4,<br />

2010 damaged the buildings<br />

and land beyond repair.<br />

In the 10 years since, it<br />

found a new site and has built<br />

a new yacht club (opened in<br />

September 2019) in South New<br />

Brighton Park – just a stone’s<br />

throw from where it all began<br />

in 1921.<br />

The centennial celebrations<br />

will provide a great opportunity<br />

to relive the highs and lows of<br />

the club’s 100 years, especially<br />

the last 10 years of the rebuild.<br />

The celebrations kick off with<br />

a noggin ‘n natter on Friday<br />

night, on Saturday, the Sullivan<br />

Cup, which is the club’s main<br />

open event, will be sailed, coupled<br />

with another major trophy,<br />

the Arch Lamb trophy for the<br />

Sunburst class.<br />

The races will feature multihulls,<br />

trailer yachts and senior<br />

and junior racing dingy classes<br />

and are open to other yacht club<br />

members.<br />

Saturday’s sailing will be followed<br />

by a celebration dinner.<br />

On Sunday, the club will<br />

run its Classic Yacht Race,<br />

first sailed at the club’s 75th<br />

celebrations. This will be<br />

coupled with a display of classic<br />

boats of all types owned by<br />

members of the Classic Boat<br />

Group of Canterbury. There will<br />

be plenty for the public to see<br />

on Saturday and Sunday.<br />

For more information, phone<br />

Ian Douglas on 027 4719 208.<br />

Cancer Society shuttle service gets boost<br />

THE CANCER Society’s<br />

Canterbury West Coast division<br />

shuttle service received a boost<br />

recently with a combined<br />

donation of almost $13,000 from<br />

23 South Island-based Lions<br />

clubs.<br />

THe free shuttle service<br />

transports patients staying<br />

in the Cancer Society’s<br />

accommodation, Daffodil<br />

House in Merivale and Daffodil<br />

Lodge in Riccarton, to and from<br />

radiation and chemotherapy<br />

appointments at Christchurch<br />

Hospital.<br />

Janice Porter-Hoare,<br />

fundraising and events manager<br />

for the Cancer Society’s CWC<br />

division, said that the Lions<br />

Clubs’ significant donation was<br />

a huge help towards funding the<br />

$65,000 required to operate the<br />

shuttle each year.<br />

“The shuttle currently operates<br />

from 7.30am until 9pm Monday<br />

to Friday, which translates to<br />

approximately 16,000 individual<br />

patient trips. Given that the<br />

patients we are providing our<br />

service for, come from all over<br />

the South Island it is fabulous<br />

to see local Lions Clubs from a<br />

variety of regions supporting<br />

this Christchurch-based service,”<br />

Porter-Hoare said.<br />

Porter-Hoare acknowledged<br />

that this was the fourth<br />

consecutive year that the Lions<br />

Clubs had donated to the shuttle<br />

service.<br />

“The late John Cramond from<br />

Motueka organised the first<br />

donation in 2017 after having<br />

used the shuttle service himself<br />

while having cancer treatment<br />

in Christchurch,” Porter-Hoare<br />

said.<br />

“Sadly John passed away last<br />

year, but his legacy lives on in<br />

this donation, which is extremely<br />

important to us given that we<br />

anticipate the demand for the<br />

shuttle service to grow even<br />

further during <strong>2021</strong>.”<br />

Lions Club representative<br />

Christine Stewart, 1st Vice<br />

District Governor for District<br />

202J, visited Daffodil House to<br />

see the shuttle service in action<br />

and accepted a certificate of<br />

thanks from the Cancer Society<br />

on behalf of the contributing<br />

Lions Clubs.<br />

In addition to providing<br />

accommodation and transport<br />

services, the Cancer Society<br />

provides education and support<br />

services for cancer patients and<br />

their families, as well as coordinating<br />

and funding cancer<br />

research.<br />

day at New Brighton beach last Saturday to learn how to<br />

fly a kite. Kites of all shapes and sizes took to the air during<br />

the annual city council event. Other activities included a<br />

I Love Brighton<br />

WONDERLAND: Amusements such as the helter-skelter and the dragon<br />

were popular with children at a New Brighton park more than 100 years<br />

ago.<br />

Historic gardens<br />

were once a<br />

hive of activity<br />

All are invited to the 11th annual I<br />

Love Brighton Waitangi day Monday.<br />

Thousands of people are expected<br />

to descend on Thomson Park on the<br />

Monday of Waitangi Weekend for the ‘I<br />

Brighton’ event. This will be the 11th<br />

annual event, which started in 2011 as<br />

a way of raising community spirits after<br />

the earthquakes but has grown each year<br />

and become a focal point for locals to<br />

celebrate their community and for local<br />

groups to showcase themselves.<br />

The event is packed full of activities for<br />

all ages including bouncy castles, water<br />

walkers, face painting, food stalls, pony<br />

rides, sports activities, circus skills, funky<br />

bikes, a pre-school zone, market stalls and<br />

a Live Music stage.<br />

The event is also a recognition of the<br />

significance of Waitangi Day and begins<br />

this year with the Rawhiti School Kapa<br />

Haka group. Other performers this year<br />

IN THE 1880s, John Bligh<br />

created a Wonderland out<br />

of 36 acres of sandhills.<br />

Bligh’s Gardens were established<br />

at an area on the<br />

Avon River below Withell’s<br />

Island and on Evans Ave.<br />

They were established as<br />

pleasure grounds by Bligh,<br />

who died in 1996. John was<br />

a cook, restaurant owner<br />

and temperance hotel<br />

keeper.<br />

His hotel was near the<br />

Salvation Army citadel<br />

site in town. He also<br />

owned a large property at<br />

Blighs Rd.<br />

When he decided to<br />

create the gardens at New<br />

Brighton, he brought<br />

plants and soil down the<br />

Avon in small craft. Conifers<br />

were planted, garden<br />

walks laid out, a playing<br />

field formed, and a house<br />

was built.<br />

Sailing clubs, families<br />

and business groups picnicked<br />

at Bligh’s Gardens,<br />

while conservationists<br />

enthused about how Bligh<br />

had made the desert “blossom<br />

as the rose.”<br />

It is still held in history<br />

books as an amazing feat.<br />

Behind the large house was<br />

a vinery laden with grapes,<br />

a fernery and greenhouses.<br />

In 1885 picnic parties<br />

were encouraged to camp<br />

at Bligh’s Gardens where<br />

“Mr Bligh’s family will<br />

hospitably provide hot<br />

water.”<br />

Dinners and teas were<br />

provided. The visitors<br />

would come by boat up the<br />

Avon to the landing place,<br />

or people could travel by<br />

the horse-drawn tram,<br />

there and back for one shilling.<br />

In 1890, Queen Victoria’s<br />

birthday was celebrated by<br />

400 people with archery<br />

and gun firing.<br />

After an exhibition in<br />

1906, some of the amusements<br />

were transferred to<br />

Blighs Gardens including<br />

a helter-skelter. The name<br />

was changed to Wonderland.<br />

Sadly the house was<br />

destroyed by fire in 1909,<br />

and after a succession of<br />

owners after Bligh’s death,<br />

the Wonderland ceased to<br />

exist.<br />

The land behind the old<br />

croquet club is still called<br />

Bligh’s Gardens, and at the<br />

museum, there is a whole<br />

Perfect job for an interest in nature<br />

Dean Pendrigh is the<br />

collections curator for<br />

the water garden, azalea<br />

garden and the pinetum in<br />

the Botanic Gardens and<br />

has been working there for<br />

the past 35 years. He talks<br />

to Ella Somers<br />

SKILLED: Dean Pendrigh tends to the plants in the Botanic Gardens. He has always had<br />

an interest in nature.<br />

A PASSION for nature led Dean<br />

Pendrigh to pursue a botanical<br />

career immediately after high<br />

school and he started his<br />

four-year apprenticeship at the<br />

Botanic Gardens in 1986.<br />

His apprenticeship included a<br />

brief scholarship to Melbourne,<br />

on his return he continued working<br />

at the gardens.<br />

Pendrigh said he has “always<br />

had an interest in nature” but it<br />

wasn’t until high school when his<br />

uncle introduced him to orchids<br />

that “really got me interested in<br />

plants and native plants as well.”<br />

He enjoys botanical work<br />

because every season is different<br />

and “something will be far better<br />

one year and not the other,” he<br />

said.<br />

“I like the biogeography and<br />

learning about where plants<br />

come from and how plants react<br />

to other plants and in different<br />

countries.”<br />

As well as maintaining the<br />

collections and keeping careful<br />

plant records, a large part of Pendrigh’s<br />

job includes tasks such as<br />

weeding, pruning, and cutting<br />

hedges.<br />

Watering takes up a lot of time<br />

as well because “a lot of my areas<br />

don’t have any actual automated<br />

irrigation so we do it by hand,”<br />

he said.<br />

Due to the names of plants<br />

changing frequently, updating<br />

and labelling records is a<br />

continual project and can be<br />

frustrating.<br />

“You get to know the name of<br />

a plant and then a botanist will<br />

change it,” Pendrigh said.<br />

“Sometimes you’ll change a<br />

label and then they’ll change it<br />

back to the original name.”<br />

Pendrigh said that while he<br />

gets a lot of good comments<br />

from people who come through<br />

the garden, “a lot of people<br />

don’t realise how much work is<br />

involved,” he said.<br />

In comparison to other trades<br />

as well, it’s not recognised as<br />

much as it should be.<br />

“There is a lot of knowledge<br />

that you need to know, and it<br />

takes a long time to build up that<br />

knowledge, especially that plant<br />

knowledge,” he said.<br />

“The names of plants you have<br />

to learn as well, it’s like learning<br />

another language.”<br />

Pendrigh’s passion for<br />

“everything botanical” has<br />

inspired him to travel to<br />

places across the world where<br />

interesting flora lives, including<br />

Africa.<br />

“They’ve got a very diverse<br />

flora,” he said.<br />

“It increased my interest in<br />

plants even more seeing them in<br />

their natural habitat.”<br />

He doesn’t have a favourite<br />

plant but if he had to name his<br />

favourite plant group, it would be<br />

plants from the southern hemisphere,<br />

New Zealand, Australia,<br />

and South Africa in particular.<br />

“There’s some interesting links<br />

between the floras of those countries,”<br />

Pendrigh said.<br />

“And because I’ve seen them in<br />

the wild, you appreciate them a<br />

lot more.”<br />

One of the most interesting<br />

visitors that the Botanic Gardens<br />

has had in Pendrigh’s time was<br />

a visit from the Dalai Lama in<br />

1992.<br />

“He planted a himalayan pine<br />

tree in my area,” Pendrigh said.<br />

Unfortunately, the tree was<br />

stolen a week after it was planted<br />

and neither the thief nor the<br />

Dalai Lama’s tree were ever<br />

found.<br />

The tree that now grows where<br />

the Dalai Lama’s one used to be<br />

“is one that I actually planted,”<br />

Pendrigh said.<br />
