Helping budding surfers D H I to hang 10<br />
• By Samantha Mythen<br />
MAKING SURFING accessible<br />
for everyone is the aim of a new<br />
project starting in Sumner.<br />
The Goat Shed is an<br />
initiative led by friends Lucas<br />
Sampaio and Carlos Alonso.<br />
They are beginning to build<br />
surfboards, with the goal of<br />
creating a surfboard lending<br />
library.<br />
The project combines Sampaio<br />
and Alonso’s passion for<br />
surfing, art, creativity, design<br />
and engineering.<br />
When the Government announced<br />
the country would be<br />
going into lockdown last year,<br />
Alonso bought all the materials<br />
he would need to be able to<br />
make a surfboard.<br />
He knew it was likely that<br />
surfing would not be permitted<br />
but still wanted to connect with<br />
surfing in some way, having<br />
engaged with the sport since he<br />
was six-years-old.<br />
Sampaio also bought supplies<br />
to try and shape a surfboard<br />
from scratch, something he had<br />
never done before.<br />
After the lockdown, the two<br />
formed a team.<br />
“Then we had an idea<br />
thinking it would be cool if we<br />
could make more surfboards.<br />
But we thought, we cannot try<br />
out and use all of the boards<br />
we make ourselves, and where<br />
would they all go anyway,”<br />
Sampaio said.<br />

Felling of<br />
peninsula<br />
pine trees<br />
sparks<br />
sediment<br />
damage fear<br />
• By Samantha Mythen<br />
THE BANKS Peninsula<br />
community has banded together<br />
to speak out against the upcoming<br />
removal of pine trees on Moepuku<br />
Peninsula.<br />
They fear the removal will result<br />
in high levels of sedimentation<br />
entering Lyttelton harbour,<br />
which will adversely affect the sea<br />
environment.<br />
Charteris <strong>Bay</strong> Residents<br />
Association chairman, Mike<br />
Pearson, alongside the Diamond<br />
<strong>Harbour</strong> Community Association,<br />
has approached the city council<br />
and Environment Canterbury on<br />
behalf of those concerned.<br />
Pearson said he understood the<br />
trees were originally planted by a<br />
former owner of the land Patrick<br />
Cotter to stabilise the ground soil,<br />
not for forestry.<br />
The peninsula has 5km of sea<br />
to land borders with access to 12<br />
beaches.<br />
Of the peninsula’s 68.88ha,<br />
50ha is planted with pinus radiata,<br />
which were planted between 1981<br />
and 1985.<br />

• From page 1<br />
He believes the planting of<br />
the trees was authorised by the<br />
now amalgamated Mt Herbert<br />
County Council, approving it as<br />
a soil conservation forest. This<br />
was confirmed by David Collins,<br />
a former chairman of the county<br />
council.<br />
Said Pearson:<br />
“Our view is, if<br />
the pines have<br />
not been planted<br />
for forestry but<br />
for soil stabilisation,<br />
that’s what<br />
it should be there<br />
for.”<br />
Pearson said<br />
Pearson<br />
the original planting was not for<br />
commercial purposes and yet it<br />
is now going to be commercially<br />
logged.<br />
“This would be ultra vires with<br />
respect to the Resource Management<br />
Act.”<br />
When submitting their letter<br />
to ECan, Pearson also attached<br />
a legal opinion, which states<br />
the harvesting should not commence<br />
prior to consents under<br />
subsection 13-15 of the RMA<br />
being obtained.<br />
These subsections relate to<br />
restrictions on use of riverbeds<br />
and coastal water and discharge<br />
of contaminants into an environment.<br />
ECan told <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News<br />
its legal team will respond to the<br />
letter this week.<br />
The associations have consistently<br />
run community clean-ups<br />
and ensure residents are aware<br />
of planting to prevent sedimentation.<br />
“We have always been supportive<br />
of Healthy <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
work and have seen much improvement<br />
in water quality over<br />
the years. We do not want this<br />
all to be in vane,” Pearson said.<br />

The area adjacent to the peninsula<br />
at the head of Charteris <strong>Bay</strong><br />
is a breeding area for rig shark.<br />
The harbour is also a habitat and<br />
exploring ground for hectors<br />
dolphin, flounder, stingrays and<br />
orca.<br />
“When the sedimentation enters<br />
the harbour, all of this will<br />
be severely impacted,” Pearson<br />
said.<br />
The group has questioned the<br />
sedimentation plan in place,<br />
stating it is not robust enough.<br />
Its concerns relate to whether<br />
any sedimentation controls will<br />
be put in place and how the sedimentation<br />
will be monitored.<br />
It has also asked about a<br />
mitigation plan for the effects<br />
of future landslides into the<br />
harbour as a result of the pines<br />
being removed.<br />
Representatives discussed<br />
these concerns at the Banks<br />
Peninsula Community Board<br />
meeting last Monday.<br />
As a result, the board will<br />
write to ECan on behalf of the<br />
community, sharing its concerns.<br />
“We need to make sure ECan<br />
has controls in place and procedure<br />
is being followed,” board<br />
chairwoman Tori Peden said.<br />
“I understand the<br />
communities fear that their<br />
healthy harbour will be<br />
jeopardised.”<br />
ECan Banks Peninsula Zone<br />
lead Gillian Jenkins said the<br />
logging is a permitted activity<br />
and they will be monitoring the<br />
harvest to ensure provisions<br />
under the National Environmental<br />
Standards for Plantation<br />
Forestry are met.<br />
Said Pearson: “We are really<br />
proud of our harbour and want<br />
it to be protected.”<br />

Gulf Wars<br />
How We Kept The Cup<br />
by richard Gladwell<br />
Gulf Wars is a pictorially driven celebration of Emirates Team New Zealand’s<br />
America’s Cup win in Auckland <strong>2021</strong>, written from an on the water perspective<br />
by one of the world’s most influential America’s Cup photo-journalists,<br />
Richard Gladwell.<br />
Richard Gladwell is an international sailing journalist and photographer who<br />
lives in New Zealand. He began sailing when he was ten years old and first<br />
wrote about the America’s Cup five years later. A Kiwi representative sailor,<br />
he competed internationally in dinghies and keelboats for 12 years, sailing<br />
with and against some of the current senior members of Emirates Team New<br />

Between Five Eyes<br />
50 years of Intelligence Sharing<br />
by Anthony r. Wells<br />
UK/US intelligence and the wider Five Eyes community of Canada, Australia and New<br />
Zealand is primarily about one main thing: Relationships. In this remarkable book,<br />
Anthony Wells charts fifty years of change, turmoil, intense challenges, successes and<br />
failures, and never-ending abiding Five Eyes relationships. He traces the development<br />
of institutions that he firmly believes have sustained, and indeed may have saved,<br />
Western democracies and their allies from those ill disposed to the value system and<br />
culture of our nations. More than a chronology of the UK/US intelligence community<br />
during this fifty-year period, it is also a personal insight into key relationships and the<br />
abiding strength of the United States and the United Kingdom and its Five Eyes allies<br />
relationships. The author is the only living person to have worked for British Intelligence<br />
as a British citizen and US Intelligence as a US citizen. He was a fully trained and<br />
accredited security officer for two US intelligence organizations, and used his own<br />
extensive unclassified collection of papers, personal notes and diaries, as well as his<br />
family library for source material to create this book.<br />
A Nurse’s Story<br />
by Louise Curtis with Sarah Johnson<br />
Moving, honest and inspiring – this is a nurse’s true story of life in a busy A&E department<br />
during the Covid-19 crisis.<br />
Working in A&E is a challenging job but nurse Louise Curtis loves it. She was newly<br />
qualified as an advanced clinical practitioner, responsible for life or death decisions<br />
about the patients she saw, when the unthinkable happened and the country was hit by<br />
the Covid-19 pandemic. The stress on the NHS was huge and for the first time in her<br />
life, the job was going to take a toll on Louise herself.<br />
In A Nurse’s Story she describes what happened next, as the trickle of Covid patients<br />
became a flood. And just as tragically, staff in A&E were faced with the effects of lockdown<br />
on society. They worried about their regulars, now missing, and saw an increase in<br />
domestic abuse victims and suicide attempts as loneliness hit people hard. By turns<br />
heartbreaking and heartwarming, this book shines a light on the compassion and<br />
dedication of hospital staff during such dark times.<br />
The Auschwitz Photographer<br />
Based on the true story of Wilhelm Brasse<br />

When Germany invaded Wilhelm Brasse’s native Poland in 1939, he was asked to swear<br />
allegiance to Hitler and join the Wehrmacht. He refused. He was deported to Auschwitz<br />
concentration camp as political prisoner number 3444. A trained portrait photographer,<br />
he was ordered by the SS to record the inner workings of the camp. He began by taking<br />
identification photographs of the prisoners as they entered the camp, went on to capture<br />
the criminal medical experiments of Josef Mengele, and also recorded executions.<br />
Between 1940 and 1945, Brasse took around 50,000 photographs of the horror around<br />
him. He took them because he had no choice.<br />
Eventually, Brasse’s conscience wouldn’t allow him to hide behind his camera. First he risked<br />
his life by joining the camp’s Resistance movement, faking documents for prisoners, trying<br />
to smuggle images to the outside world to reveal what was happening. Then, when Soviet<br />
troops finally advanced on the camp to liberate it, Brasse refused SS orders to destroy his<br />
photographs. ‘Because the world must know,’ he said.<br />
Crusade On!<br />
Celebrating 25 years Of The Crusaders<br />
By Matt McIlraith<br />
The Crusaders are not just another sports team. Out of a modest beginning grew the<br />
most formidable professional club entity rugby has ever seen. Yet sustained on-field<br />
excellence is just part of the story of a team that succeeded by living its stated ethos of<br />
hard work, the embracement of diversity, and a commitment to represent its people with<br />
pride and humility. Join the crusade as Matt McILraith takes you inside the club’s first<br />
25-years, dissecting the key moments, the successes and the rare failures, complete with<br />
season analysis, biographies of all 245 players, and the five head coaches, as well as<br />
statistics from all 370 games the team played. A 360-degree portrait, Crusade On also<br />
introduces some of the larger-than-life personalities, from within the team and off the<br />
field, all of whom helped to make the Crusaders what they are. The way the Crusaders<br />
accomplished their success, with no one person more important than any other, and<br />
the enduring culture they created to sustain it, is an example of continued achievement<br />
that is as relevant for the boardroom as it is for the sporting arena. On-going success in<br />
any pursuit is not achieved by accident. This is why the Crusaders’ story is so important.<br />

Approval given to<br />
progress wharf upgrade<br />
• By Samantha Mythen<br />
THE DIAMOND <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
Wharf upgrade project has been<br />
given approval to progress to the<br />
next stage.<br />
Last Thursday, the city<br />
council’s Transport and Urban<br />
Development Committee made<br />
the decision allowing the project<br />
to move ahead to the detailed<br />
design phase.<br />
This phase will allow for detailed<br />
cost estimates.<br />
Banks Peninsula councillor<br />
and Deputy Mayor Andrew<br />
Turner said preliminary<br />
estimates during the concept<br />
development have indicated the<br />
project will be delivered within<br />
the existing budget.<br />
After the design phase has<br />
been completed, a contractor for<br />
construction will be procured<br />
and then construction on the<br />
wharf will begin.<br />
Said Turner: “After some time<br />
in the planning it is great to<br />
see this much needed upgrade<br />
happening. This is a significant<br />
improvement to accessibility and<br />
public safety – great news for the<br />
community and for ferry users.”<br />
Said Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> Community<br />
Association chairman<br />
Nathan Graham: “The association<br />
is very happy that the wharf<br />
will be more accessible to those<br />
with young children, the elderly<br />
and others who struggle with<br />
accessibility.”<br />
A time line on how the project<br />
will commence is yet to be<br />
released.<br />
• From page 1<br />
“I’ve always wanted to be<br />
involved in the community and<br />
then we came up with the idea<br />
for the library of boards, and<br />
lending them out to the community.”<br />
Said Alonso: “We realised this<br />
was something we wanted to<br />
keep doing. We are enjoying the<br />
process and pushing each other.<br />
It’s hard work but trying out the<br />
boards makes it all worth it.”<br />
The idea is that people will be<br />
able to borrow a surfboard for a<br />
koha.<br />
“People can’t always afford a<br />
board, plus the library would<br />
mean people can try out and<br />
experiment with different styles<br />
of boards,” Sampaio said.<br />
Alonso explained they had<br />
brainstormed the idea that if<br />
people liked a surfboard they<br />
tried, they could then buy the<br />
board for a low cost price covering<br />
the materials for the board<br />
and the materials for another<br />
board to then be made for the<br />
library.<br />
“It’s not just about us making<br />
the boards, but we want it to be a<br />
community initiative. We would<br />
love for people to provide feedback<br />
on the boards too,” said Alonso.<br />
The Sumner Hub is home to<br />
The Goat Shed team. They have<br />
set up their workshop in a converted<br />
garage, built specifically<br />
by and for the team.<br />
Lucas<br />
Sampaio<br />
shaping<br />
up a<br />
board.<br />
Initiative to benefit community<br />
It is a non-profitable project,<br />
and the two men are currently<br />
spending mostly their own money<br />
and time to fund the venture.<br />
The project is in its early stages<br />
and they are currently shaping<br />
their first few surfboards.<br />
In the meantime, they are thinking<br />
of offering to repair boards<br />
to bring in more income to help<br />
develop the project further.<br />
Said Sampaio: “We want people<br />
to believe in us and to do that<br />
we have to show we are doing<br />
something. We want to show<br />
this is a project which is up and<br />
running.”<br />

THIS YEAR’S Single Fin Mingle<br />
event for women features 33<br />
longboarders.<br />
The high number of entries<br />
compares well to the 48 who have<br />
entered the men’s event.<br />
Event founder Ambrose<br />
McNeil said: “There are some<br />
amazing female surfers and we<br />
want to support them and ensure<br />
women’s surfing will keep being<br />
increasingly promoted.”<br />
The event always awards equal<br />
prize money for both the male<br />
and female surfing categories.<br />
This happened even before<br />
the World Surf League started<br />
to offer equal prize money to its<br />
female competitors in 2019.<br />
Several Sumner women will<br />
be competing including Brittany<br />
Andrews and Lili <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />
Andrews has been surfing for<br />
most of her life, thanks to her<br />
dad.<br />
“He has surfed for 40-plus<br />
years, so being his only child I<br />
had no choice,” she said.<br />
“The first time I went surfing<br />
was in a competition when I was<br />
super young, he just entered me<br />
in it for a laugh I think.”<br />
She began to specialise in longboarding<br />
with again motivation<br />
from her dad, the longboarding<br />
community and the Mingle<br />
crew.<br />
“For me longboarding is quite<br />
relaxing . . . being able to cruise<br />
along the waves brings a big<br />
sense of calm and connection to<br />
the ocean,” said Andrews.<br />
The Mingle is Andrews’ favourite<br />
event of the year.<br />
“Everyone is supported and<br />
welcomed no matter if you surf<br />
or not. The inclusion of everyone<br />
and love shown makes it so<br />
special.”<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> has competed in the event<br />
since its beginnings in 2014.<br />
“It’s always awesome to surf in<br />
Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz<br />
the competition and it has been<br />
incredible seeing it grow over<br />
the years with the whole Sumner<br />
community getting involved,”<br />
she said.<br />
“I watch in awe as it unfolds.<br />
The competition is always the<br />
small part, the biggest and best<br />
part is having fun with friends.”<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> moved to New Zealand<br />
with her family from Germany<br />
when she was 13. The first thing<br />
her family did was try surfing.<br />
SKILLED:<br />
Brittany<br />
Andrews<br />
shows her<br />
longboarding<br />
talent. <br />
The longboarding community<br />
and its surf has inspired <strong>Bay</strong>’s<br />
own interest in the style.<br />
“The beauty about longboarding<br />
is that it is a completely even<br />
playing field between men and<br />
women as it is about grace and<br />
style more than force and energy,”<br />
she said.<br />
“Many of my friends are beautiful<br />
longboarders and everyone<br />
has a different aesthetic and style<br />
that they bring into their surfing<br />

Longboard competition attracts 33 women<br />
that can’t be compared with each<br />
other.”<br />
Surfing New Zealand general<br />
manager Ben Kennings said: “I<br />
think a lot of females love the<br />
longboard and can enjoy it whatever<br />
the wave. It offers a lot more<br />
opportunities to get in the water.”<br />
Both Andrews and <strong>Bay</strong> love<br />
the surfing community, especially<br />
the women who make up a<br />
large portion of it.<br />
“I feel lucky for this community.<br />
I am grateful that so many<br />
women here are into it. I know<br />
other wahine around Aotearoa<br />
don’t have the same sense of<br />
community we experience here,<br />
again we have events like the<br />
Mingle to thank for that, there is<br />
always a big turnout of women<br />
longboarders that come which<br />
creates a bigger sense of community<br />
and empowerment for<br />
women,” Andrews said.<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> explained she had never<br />
felt a disadvantage as a woman<br />
surfing in Sumner but had heard<br />
about struggles of other female<br />
friends in places around the<br />
country.<br />
“I feel really lucky. I’ve never<br />
felt out of place,” she said.<br />
“It’s cool to see so many girls<br />
surfing in Sumner, especially<br />
seeing the increase over the last<br />
few years.”<br />

Celebrating surfing, music and culture<br />
• By Samantha Mythen<br />
CELEBRATION TIME: The Single Fin Mingle festival starts<br />
on Thursday with two musical events planned for the<br />
weekend featuring Kiwi talent There’s a Tuesday and Jed<br />
Parsons.<br />
SINGLE FIN Mingle founder<br />
Ambrose McNeil is quarantining<br />
in managed isolation before<br />
heading to Sumner, to run the<br />
longboard surfing event.<br />
The four-day festival celebrates<br />
a love of longboarding which<br />
will run from Thursday to<br />
Sunday this week and is in its<br />
seventh year.<br />
McNeil is most looking forward<br />
to seeing the community<br />
come together to celebrate and<br />
have a good time at the Mingle.<br />
“It is pretty special to be able<br />
to bring friends from around the<br />
country and the Sumner community<br />
together to participate in<br />
the competition plus do all the<br />
fun things.”<br />
Sumner is the best place to run<br />
the event, McNeil said.<br />
Although the waves are not always<br />
the greatest, the enthusiasm<br />
from the community makes the<br />
event so special.<br />
“The community there are<br />
so supportive and tight-knit.<br />
There are great venues, a beautiful<br />
theatre, amazing bars and<br />
restaurants, surf clubs. The local<br />
businesses really get behind the<br />
event,” McNeil said.<br />
The biggest hurdle for this<br />
year’s Mingle for McNeil has<br />
been actually getting back to<br />
Sumner, having lived in Australia<br />
for the past five years.<br />
“It was touch and go for a<br />
while there,” McNeil said, booking<br />
a spot in managed isolation<br />
proving to be quite difficult.<br />
He is only allowed to leave isolation<br />
the day before the event starts.<br />
The core of the event is the<br />
longboarding competition.<br />
Although the competition is<br />
divided by gender, there are no<br />
age categories, with the youngest<br />
competing 14 and the oldest in<br />
their 60s.<br />
“What makes longboarding<br />
special is that is spans a full age<br />
and gender divide, we can all<br />
chat about the same thing, no<br />
matter your background.”<br />
It is an invitational festival<br />
meaning you have to be invited<br />
to participate.<br />
McNeil said: “The idea behind<br />
this was to make it prestigious<br />
so we can showcase world-class<br />
longboarders.”<br />
McNeil and a few others across<br />
New Zealand scout out potential<br />
participants at surfing competitions,<br />
look for people who stand<br />
out at local beaches and find<br />
others through word of mouth.<br />
But it is not meant to be an<br />
exclusive event.<br />
“Half of it is how good you are;<br />
the talented longboarders who<br />
put effort into perfecting the fine<br />
art of this traditional style of<br />
PHOTO: JONATHAN SMIT<br />
surfing,” McNeil explained.<br />
“The other part of the criteria<br />
is just being a cool, laid-back,<br />
good person.”<br />
The event has developed in<br />
many different ways each year.<br />
In the early days of the Mingle,<br />
its biggest party held 100 people<br />
at a local venue.<br />
This year, it is building its own<br />
venue in the Sumner Village<br />
Mall which can hold 800.<br />
The event has also extended an<br />
extra day and night with more<br />
going on throughout the days.<br />
There are two musical soirees<br />
showcasing local musicians such<br />
as There’s a Tuesday; a film gala<br />
of surf cinematics, and an art<br />
show at LEstrange Gallery.<br />
The ‘Wonderful Warm Up” gig<br />
including Two Minds from Mt<br />
Pleasant was held on Saturday.<br />
A special part of the event<br />
will be the sale of Abrahands<br />
stickers, available for a donation.<br />
The donations will go towards<br />
an alternative mental health<br />
therapy, in memory of McNeil’s<br />
brother Abraham McNeil who<br />
committed suicide in 2019.<br />
“We want to keep the conversation<br />
around mental health<br />
going,” McNeil said.<br />
The Mingle has caught the<br />
attention of an international<br />
audience too.<br />
In 2019, more than 50 surfers<br />
from around the world competed<br />
in the Sumner surf and more<br />
than 100 other internationals<br />
attended the festival.<br />
“I’m blown away every year by<br />
how the festival is growing. It’s<br />
not about getting bigger but it’s<br />
about trying new things to make<br />
the experience better.<br />
“Our goal has always been to<br />
make this the best weekend of<br />
the year,” McNeil said.<br />

COMMUNITY groups are<br />
taking the lead on a new<br />
trapping initiative in the Port<br />
Hills to help with predator<br />
control.<br />
The city council is working<br />
alongside community groups<br />
in Purau Reserve, Birdsey<br />
Reserve, Barnett Park and<br />
Giants Nose Reserve.<br />
It will be a six-month project<br />
to investigate how trapping<br />
can be safely supported in the<br />
smaller community reserves.<br />
This is a part of the city<br />
council’s commitment to<br />
make the Port Hills and Banks<br />
Peninsula pest-free by 2050.<br />
City council community<br />
parks manager Al Hardy said<br />
a training workshop was conducted<br />
at the end of last year,<br />
equipping volunteers with the<br />
necessary skills needed to set<br />
and monitor traps.<br />
Many of those involved in<br />
this project have already been<br />
trapping in the reserves for<br />
some time.<br />
Said Hardy: “Other community<br />
groups are new to<br />
trapping but have been doing<br />
planting and maintenance<br />
work in their local park. They<br />
see trapping as the next step<br />
towards restoring urban biodiversity.”<br />
Community group Friends<br />
of Purau Reserve has been<br />
working over the past few<br />
years to weed and then replant<br />
the reserve with indigenous<br />
vegetation.<br />
After discovering hedgehogs,<br />
mice and rats in<br />
the reserve, they are now<br />
implementing a trapping<br />
programme as part of this<br />

Community helps with predator trapping<br />
initiative.<br />
Since first setting traps at<br />
the beginning of March, they<br />
have already caught four rats.<br />
Said Purau Reserve volunteers<br />
co-ordinator Bronwyn<br />
McLennan: “I got involved because<br />
we need a habitat bridge<br />
or link between the city and<br />
Banks Peninsula for our native<br />
species, especially our birds,<br />
to be safe and proliferate. It’s<br />
possible that if we actively trap<br />
predators in our cities that we<br />
could create a haven for our<br />
wildlife.”<br />

Fire station set to be demolished<br />
Sumner<br />
Volunteer<br />
Fire<br />
Brigade<br />
chief fire<br />
officer<br />
Daryl<br />
Sayer provides<br />
an update on the<br />
volunteer team<br />
OVER MARCH 27-29,<br />
the Sumner Volunteer Fire<br />
Brigade moved into temporary<br />
premises on Wakefield Ave.<br />
This marks the next phase<br />
of the rebuild of the existing<br />
station in Wiggins St, which<br />
suffered extensive, although<br />
not crippling, damage in the<br />
2011 earthquakes.<br />
Temporary premises,<br />
including a two-vehicle<br />
appliance bay, offices and<br />
a training room have been<br />
constructed on the former site<br />
of the Sumner gasworks, on<br />
the corner of Truro St.<br />
Demolition of the old<br />
station will take place in the<br />
THE MEETING to discuss the<br />
establishment of a community<br />
garden in Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
last Tuesday confirmed the<br />
NEW BUILD: The Sumner Volunteer Fire Brigade building will soon be demolished<br />
and another facility will be built on the Wiggins St site.<br />
next couple of weeks before<br />
construction of the new<br />
station begins.<br />
The new station will be built<br />
on the Wiggins St site, but<br />
will also take in the section on<br />
the corner of Wakefield Ave,<br />
resulting in a larger footprint<br />
for the station.<br />
The station will have a<br />
two-vehicle appliance bay,<br />
office space and a meeting and<br />
training room in a purposebuilt<br />
modern facility.<br />
Locals should be aware<br />
that during the build process<br />
the normal fire siren will<br />
not be operating, but will<br />
be reinstated when the new<br />
station is operational.<br />
The siren acts as an<br />
additional means of<br />
alerting the members –<br />
pagers are not 100 per cent<br />
reliable, particularly in the<br />
hill-lined locality of the<br />
Sumner valley.<br />
The siren has been<br />
reported to be a comfort<br />
to those nearby who have<br />
requested the brigade’s<br />
assistance as it assures them<br />
that their call for help has<br />
been heard.<br />
Sumner Fire Brigade<br />
has operated in the local<br />
community for 127 years,<br />
and is entirely staffed by<br />
volunteers.<br />
Recruiting is currently<br />
aimed at people who are<br />
available to respond during<br />
working hours.<br />
If you wish to inquire about<br />
joining and are available<br />
during the week, phone chief<br />
fire officer Daryl Sayer on 027<br />
229 2402.<br />
Interest grows in Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> community garden<br />
desire for the project.<br />
Potential sites and reasons<br />
for the garden were discussed.<br />
THe next steps will be<br />
to form a management<br />
committee that then put<br />
forward a project proposal to<br />
the city council.<br />

Hill dwellers need to be vigilant with water<br />
In <strong>April</strong>, the<br />
Redcliffs/<br />
Te Rae Kura<br />
Eco Village<br />
Group will<br />
be focusing<br />
on water.<br />
Co-ordinator<br />
Dave Bryce discusses<br />
water seepage on Banks<br />
Peninsula<br />
IF YOU LIVE on the hills and<br />
have a problem with water<br />
seepage and clay, you are not<br />
alone.<br />
The hills of Banks Peninsula<br />
have varying amounts of a clay<br />
material called loess on them.<br />
This came as wind-blown dust<br />
from the retreating glaciers in<br />
the various “Ice Ages”.<br />
It is comprised of tiny particles<br />
which become suspended in<br />
water, making it cloudy, like the<br />
waters of glacial lakes such as<br />
Lake Tekapo.<br />
When the hills were covered<br />
in native forest, rain water<br />
dripped lightly from the leaves<br />
The Avon-<br />
Heathcote<br />
Estuary Ihutai<br />
Trust is a<br />
non-profit<br />
organisation<br />
formed<br />
to protect<br />
one of New<br />
Zealand’s most important<br />
coastal wetlands. Each<br />
week, board members will<br />
discuss matters regarding<br />
the estuary, its rich history<br />
and what makes it unique.<br />
This week Bill Simpson<br />
writes about the influential<br />
Peacock family<br />
ONE OF THE mementoes of<br />
the 2010 and 2011 Christchurch<br />
earthquakes is the large mass<br />
of netting on the cliff face<br />
protecting the road at Clifton<br />
Beach on the way to Sumner.<br />
This area has had various<br />
names – Shag Rock Reserve,<br />
Clifton Beach and Peacocks<br />
Gallop.<br />
and soaked slowly through the<br />
leaf litter into the soil.<br />
Much of it was absorbed<br />
by plant roots, but some<br />
emerged in streams keeping<br />
them flowing constantly<br />
throughout the year (with<br />
minor fluctuations). This clean<br />
water supported ecosystems<br />
including water plants, mussels,<br />
invertebrates, koura, inanga,<br />
kokopu and eels.<br />
Since the removal of native<br />
forests from the Port Hills, rainwater<br />
pounds the grass and soil,<br />
taking up chemical residues,<br />
some water running down on<br />
the surface, some soaking quickly<br />
into the soil.<br />
Some of this water triggers<br />
downhill soil creep, and some<br />
washes out loess underground,<br />
collapsing the soil above it as<br />
“under-runners”.<br />
This water quickly discharges<br />
into streams, depositing sediment,<br />
smothering water plants,<br />
degrading ecosystems, causing<br />
major fluctuations in stream<br />
water flows (from torrents to<br />
prolonged dry spells).<br />
The result is much faster<br />
erosion of the hills than before,<br />
and much more sedimentation<br />
of streams, rivers, estuaries,<br />
harbour beds and the ocean.<br />
Many ecosystems across the<br />
Peninsula cannot adapt to such<br />
erosion, and many roads, houses<br />
or other buildings may also be<br />
at risk.<br />
Hill dwellers need to be<br />
vigilant – water gardens by<br />
timers or by hand (and no<br />
more than necessary); make<br />
sure downpipes discharge<br />
to roadsides, city council<br />
stormwater pipes or appropriate<br />
on-site storage tanks; wash<br />
cars in water-recycling “carwashes”<br />
or on lawns, but not<br />
on driveways; never allow<br />
water or soil to cross your<br />
boundaries; never excavate or<br />
fill land without appropriate<br />
advice or city council<br />
approval; never allow paint or<br />
other contaminants to enter<br />
stormwater; always check that<br />
taps are off and not leaking.<br />

Reserve,<br />
The Peacocks, father and son,<br />
were influential businessmen in<br />
the early days of Christchurch.<br />
John Jenkins Peacock (1798–<br />
1868) from Sydney owned several<br />
ships which traded around<br />
New Zealand’s coastal towns in<br />
the 1840 and 1850s.<br />
He was known as a hard-worker<br />
and would think nothing of<br />
wading into the Lyttelton harbour<br />
in all weathers to load sacks<br />
of potatoes onto his brig.<br />
But he must have tired of that<br />
because in 1857 he built the harbour’s<br />
second jetty. It was known<br />
initially as Peacock’s Wharf but<br />
with enlargements and improvements<br />
it later became known as<br />
“No 7 Wharf.”<br />
His son, Hon John Thomas<br />
Peacock, (1827–1905) is probably<br />
best known today as the donor of<br />
funds for the Peacock Fountain<br />
in the Botanic Gardens.<br />
He was born in Sydney but<br />
arrived in Christchurch in<br />
1844 with his parents. John<br />
Thomas was a businessman<br />
and politician. He was also a<br />
philanthropist, most notably<br />
through his generous support<br />
of the Christchurch Beautifying<br />
Association.<br />
He was also the member of<br />
Parliament for Lyttelton from<br />
1868 to 1873, and then appointed<br />
to the Legislative Council from<br />
1873 to his death in 1905.<br />
He also found time to be the<br />
first mayor of St Albans from<br />
1881.<br />
Prominent on the Tramways<br />
Board he made an impassioned<br />
plea in 1905 for widening the<br />
road to Sumner so that traffic<br />
would be protected from rocks<br />
falling off Clifton.<br />
“In the old days I used to<br />
gallop along that bit of road<br />
in order to get over it as fast as<br />
possible, and it used to be called<br />
‘Peacock’s Gallop,’” he told The<br />
Press on January 13, 1905.<br />
He would have been an<br />
enthusiastic admirer of the<br />
netting there today.<br />

A message from the Board<br />
To finally be able to reveal the plans for the new building is something we are all<br />
incredibly excited about. When Archbishop Paul Martin, was appointed as Bishop<br />
of Christchurch, he promised us he would make the rebuild of Marian College a<br />
priority, and he was true to his word. Although it has taken somewhat longer than<br />
originally planned, we think it has been worth the wait!<br />
NCEA 2020 results<br />
In the words of Mother Teresa “I can do things you cannot, you can do things I<br />
cannot. Together we can do great things.” This could not be truer in the design<br />
and planning of the new look Marian College. There have been so many people<br />
involved in this project, from the students, staff and school community to the<br />
professionals, who can do the things we cannot, it truly is a team effort.<br />
On behalf of the Board, I would like to acknowledge the incredible work of the<br />
Architects, Sheppard and Rout, and the Diocesan project management team, who<br />
have listened and share our excitement about this build. They have all worked<br />
hard to ensure the Catholic Special Character of Marian College is maintained in<br />
a design which is quite unique. I’d also like to acknowledge the Marian College<br />
Senior Leadership Team who have ensured the new school build meets the needs<br />
of the staff and students for the future.<br />
The significance of this new build project cannot be underestimated and as a<br />
Board we feel very privileged to be a part of this. We look forward to working<br />
alongside the team to ensure Marian College continues to thrive in the future.<br />

Huge load space in Hyundai Santa Fe<br />
MY SON recently purchased<br />
a new television, a giant 65in<br />
model.<br />
The key question I asked<br />
the salesperson at the time of<br />
purchase was: “Would I be able<br />
to transport it home in a sport<br />
utility vehicle?’’ He answered yes,<br />
if it was a big wagon.<br />
Well, I was driving one of the<br />
biggest mainstream SUVs in the<br />
market – Hyundai’s new Santa<br />
Fe – and although it was a bit of a<br />
squeeze we did manage to get the<br />
new TV home.<br />
That’s one of the benefits of<br />
the modern SUV concept, they<br />
are adaptable with a multitude<br />
of uses, and the new Santa Fe<br />
Limited with its 2.2-litre diesel<br />
engine is a class act. Well, I guess<br />
it needs to be, at almost $90k it is<br />
an SUV that commands a serious<br />
financial outlay.<br />
Of course, there are other model<br />
options – seven variants make<br />
up the new range which starts at<br />
$62,990 for a 2.5-litre four-cylinder<br />
petrol model, and there’s also<br />
a V6 petrol in the line-up.<br />
The new Santa Fe is exactly<br />
that, it is an all-new shape and<br />
sits on an all-new platform, what’s<br />
more it gets a new diesel engine,<br />
and while the cubic capacity is<br />
much the same as the previous<br />
generation model, it’s an all-aluminium<br />
unit which is smooth,<br />
quieter, more powerful and<br />
efficient than before.<br />
CAPABLE: Up to 1625-litres of cargo can be transported<br />
beneath the Santa Fe’s tailgate.<br />
HYUNDAI SANTA FE LIMITED: Plush, luxury SUV with a choice of engines.<br />
The Limited model gets the<br />
new diesel, although, as mentioned,<br />
you can get it with petrol<br />
power as well, but the V6 Limited<br />
doesn’t have drive to all four<br />
wheels.<br />
That aside, the four-cylinder<br />
turbocharged diesel is rated at<br />
148kW (3800rpm) with 440Nm<br />
of torque available from 1750rpm<br />
to 2750rpm.<br />
Not only are these outputs<br />
impressive in terms of flexibility<br />
and outright grunt, it is one of<br />
the smoothest oil burners you are<br />
ever likely to find in a vehicle of<br />
this type.<br />
It is hooked to a recently-developed<br />
eight-speed dual clutch automatic<br />
transmission, something<br />
that is shared with Hyundai’s<br />
partnership with Kia. Interaction<br />
between the engine and gearbox<br />
is smooth and seamless, and the<br />
gear ratios are structured so that<br />
they work efficiently with the<br />
engine’s power and torque bands,<br />
especially so the mid-range rev<br />
spread.<br />
In this form, the Santa Fe is relatively<br />
quick for a vehicle which<br />
weighs in at almost two-tonne.<br />
According to my stopwatch it will<br />
make 100km/h from a standstill<br />
in under 9sec.<br />
As you would expect in the<br />
new-age SUV, the Santa Fe<br />
is fitted with the latest drive<br />
technologies, it has all-corner<br />
propulsion which can be activated<br />
by the driver at the turn of a<br />
dial through a complex series of<br />
modes and functions. Because of<br />
the driveline mechanicals there is<br />
a lot of suspension complexity.<br />
Mostly, though, there is feel<br />
and grip that the driver can use<br />
with confidence and reassurance.<br />
The ride is also quiet, and a lot<br />
of that has to do with the quality<br />
of the tyres – the big Continental<br />
rubber (255/45 x 20in) has a firm<br />
road feel and transports messages<br />
to the steering wheel in a solid,<br />
communicative way.<br />
The Santa Fe is a fine touring<br />
vehicle, and after years of development<br />
the ride/handling balance<br />
is as good as you would get in any<br />
SUV, least of all one that sits in<br />
the large luxury segment.<br />
I presented the evaluation car<br />
with a tight set of corners between<br />
Darfield and Burnham, the<br />
Santa Fe leans a little bit, but such<br />
are the spring and damper rates<br />
body movement isn’t excessive<br />
and the occupants shouldn’t be<br />
disappointed with the in-cabin<br />
comfort levels.<br />
Add in a vehicle that weighs in<br />
at around 1900kg, there is a lot<br />
of vehicle to get through a tight<br />
corner, yet it does so with dignity<br />
and purpose.<br />
That’s one of the reasons why<br />
SUVs have become so popular,<br />
they perform admirably and,<br />
in the Santa Fe’s case, it is also a<br />
plush luxury car which impresses<br />
• Price – Hyundai Santa Fe<br />
Limited, $89,990<br />
• Dimensions – Length,<br />
4785mm; width, 1900mm;<br />
height, 1710mm<br />
• Configuration – Fourcylinder,<br />
four-wheel-drive,<br />
2151cc, 148kW, 440Nm,<br />
eight-speed automatic<br />
• Performance –<br />
0-100km/h, 8.9sec<br />
• Fuel usage – 7.5l/100km<br />
with its refinement.<br />
Major items of specification include<br />
full leather trim with electrically<br />
adjustable seats up front<br />
(also heated). There is head-up<br />
display, paddle-shift gear selectors<br />
and new display graphics which<br />
change face when the indicator<br />
stalk is activated, side views of the<br />
vehicle give the driver clear vision<br />
of what is happening outside.<br />
Also, it must be mentioned the<br />
Limited model also gets remote<br />
starting and movement, should<br />
the driver’s door be hard to access,<br />
such as a tight car park, the<br />
vehicle can be driven forward or<br />
reversed using the remote key.<br />
Hyundai has upped the ante in<br />
terms of fuel use. The Santa Fe<br />
returned some interesting fuel usage<br />
information during my time<br />
with the test car. At 100km/h<br />
in top gear the big diesel sips<br />
fuel instantaneously at around<br />
4.5-litres per 100km, turning over<br />
at just 1600rpm. A test average of<br />
7l/100km is respectable for vehicle<br />
weight, and compares well to<br />
Hyundai’s combined cycle claim<br />
of 6.1l/100km.<br />
Although the television wasn’t<br />
heavy, it was bulky and claimed a<br />
fair hunk of space made easy by<br />
the clever seat folding system. In<br />
terms of figures, the load area can<br />
claim up to 547-litres, 1625-litres<br />
with the rear second row of<br />
seats folded. Yes, the Santa Fe is a<br />
useful seven-seater.<br />
I was scheduled into Hyundai’s<br />
new Santa Fe just before Christmas,<br />
however, a shipping mix-up<br />
meant it wasn’t dispatched to<br />
Christchurch.<br />
Fast forward two months<br />
and the range-topping Limited<br />
arrived. The wait was really<br />
worth it, it’s sophistication speaks<br />
volumes, the Santa Fe is a model<br />
that sits on the outer periphery<br />
of the luxury wagon market, yet<br />
it competes admirably with all of<br />
the big names.<br />
However, its biggest competition<br />
will come from Kia’s new<br />
Sorento; the two South Korean<br />
companies are partners, yet battle<br />
each other fiercely, especially in<br />
terms of pricing.<br />
The new Sorento, with a similar<br />
driveline, has an advantage<br />
there, how it all plays out in<br />
the marketplace will be very<br />
interesting to watch.<br />
