Comedian’s work stretches
to cleaning up Godley Head
• By Samantha Mythen
SHAY HORAY’S weekend
started with a morning
stroll around Godley Head
and ended with a truck
full of other people’s
rubbish.
Horay, a comedian and
actor from Lyttelton – also
known as the Rubberband
Boy – was walking his dog
in the historic scenic reserve
when Riley got some broken
glass stuck in his paw.
Said Horay: “I looked
around, saw heaps and heaps
of rubbish and thought: ‘This
is gross’.”
Rather than taking to social
media to complain about
those who had littered, Horay
decided to do something
about it.
After getting back from his
walk, Horay posted an idea
on the Lyttelton Facebook
group.
He asked that any interested
members of the community
meet at the top of Evans Pass
at 10am the next morning to
“lend a hand on the ‘pick the
s**t up day’.”
Horay said he just wanted
to “get into it and go for it.”

Police issue
52 tickets
in one day
to drivers
ignoring
stop signs
POLICE HAVE clamped
down on motorists running
intersections – issuing 52 tickets
in a single day.
The campaign in Lyttelton
came after residents’ complained
about driving behaviour.
Said Sergeant Gerard Peoples:
“We recently noted local concerns
about drivers not stopping
at the Lyttelton stop signs
including some occasions where
pedestrians have almost been
hit.
“As a result of these concerns
we conducted an operation to
target stop sign runners. An
incredible 52 tickets were issued
in the course of one day, often
while police staff and vehicles
were in plain view.’’
Motorists were fined $150.
“Surprisingly, many people
thought they were give way
signs, and out of the 52 only two
were not locals.
“I understand that giving
out tickets is not popular but
people running stop signs and
putting others at risk is even less
popular.”

• By Samantha Mythen
WORK TO remove the
apocalyptic graffiti poem on
the historic Lyttelton Gaol wall
by the primary school will be
completed in the next two to
three weeks.
Two city council parks staff
began the removal process last
Wednesday. Three sets of cleaning
products
have been
applied, paired
with scrubbing
work, which
has almost
removed the
wording.
The removal
will continue
this week.
Complaints
were first made about the poem
in September last year.
The lack of progress on
the removal of the graffiti
drew the attention of Deputy
Mayor Andrew Turner who
requested answers from city
council staff on why the graffiti
was still there six months from
the first complaint.
The city council told Bay
Harbour on March 17 the delays
in the graffiti removal would be
resolved within the following
week.
However, there were further
delays as the specialised contractor
used by the city council is
currently unavailable. They had
been working to find someone
else to remove the graffiti in the
meantime.
As the wall is a heritage item,
a special process is required
to remove the graffiti and not
damage the structure.
“Being a heritage wall, our advice
is to use different methods
and chemicals for each material,

not as straight forward as normal
graffiti removal,” Turner
said.
Because of these circumstances,
a special contractor was
needed to complete the work.
Said Turner: “I have
encouraged staff to prioritise
this and I have been assured the
graffiti will be removed.”
Paul Dietsche, a Lyttelton
resident, was among several
people who reported the graffiti
to the city council via their
Snap, Send and Solve feature in
September.
Many residents said they did
not mind the poem, but opposed
its location right by a playing
field for young children.
Turner said he would be
following up the graffiti at
Magazine Bay as a separate
issue.

Concerted
effort to
target
speeding
•From page 1
Police have also been making a
concerted effort to target speeding
drivers and riders along the
main roads through the bays.
A significant number of speeding
tickets have been issued in
recent weeks, said Peoples.
“However, it astounds me that
motor-cyclists continue to ride
through the area in the manner in
which they do, especially after the
tragic death of one of their own
only a few weeks ago,” he said.
“Anybody can drive or ride
through these roads at speed but
the speed limits are in place as
you not only need to stick to the
road, you also need to be able to
stop in time when something unexpected
appears in front of you
such as coming across a broken
down car, a kid running out in
front of you or a car tuning in
your path.”
Meanwhile, Lyttelton police
will be conducting a number
of night shifts in the area to
disrupt and discourage thefts
from cars, much of which takes
place in the dead of the night.
• Gerard Peoples’ column, p10
• By Samantha Mythen
REDCLIFFS residents are
resigned that their village
upgrades may only happen in 10
years time.
If the city council’s draft Long
Term Plan goes ahead, village
improvements under the Redcliffs
(Main Rd) Master Plan will
only happen in 2030.
However,
the Redcliffs
Residents’ Association
would like
to see the village
rejuvenated before
then.
They have
made a submission
requesting the Master Plan
be implemented earlier.
After the February 22, 2011,
earthquake, the city council in
consultation with community
boards, created a set of suburban
master plans to assist with rebuild
and urban regeneration.
The Redcliffs (Main Rd)
Master Plan was adopted in
November 2014.
Association secretary Pat
McIntosh explained work on the
Redcliffs village street improvements
was meant to happen last
year, yet, the money allocated
to the project was deferred.
They thought it was because of

Covid-19.
However, this aspect of the
Master Plan has since been
assigned to the 2030/31 period
in the city council’s draft Long
Term Plan.
McIntosh said what disappointed
her most was how they
were blindsided by the Master
Plan being pushed back 10 years.
The residents’ association only
knew about this after reading
the draft Long Term Plan themselves.
The Linwood-Heathcote-
Central Community
Board has put forward the
recommendation that this
is a high priority and the
urban regeneration should be
reinstated for occurring at an
earlier period.
McIntosh said it should
be reinstated based on two
concerns.
She believes the village centre
is in need of general landscape
improvements and also needs
markers at each end indicating
to thorough-fare a village has
been entered.
“It’s not just a through road,”
McIntosh said.

will be a long wait
“We want to encourage people
to stop and use the shops and
cafe.”
Clifton resident Eric Smart said
he thought Redcliffs was becoming
“quite dead.”
“There aren’t as many people
wandering around the shops,” he
said.
Vinod Manu, owner of the
Redcliffs Dairy said the village
“needs a boost.”
McIntosh would also like to see
a lowered speed limit through the
village centre and
for this to happen
sooner rather
than in 10 years
time.
“This is
something the
Catherine
Sayer
resident’s association
has been
advocating about
for years,” she said.
“We are disappointed to see
this has no longer been given
priority for action.”
Said Redcliffs Pharmacy owner
Catherine Sayer: “It would be a
good idea if the speed was lowered
– we have seen the odd crash
out here.”
Redcliffs Butchery Brian
Jennings said there were always
many children walking down to
the dairy, as well as cars turning
on and off Main Rd. He thought
it would be a good idea to impose
the lower speed limit.
Manu suggested a 30km/h
speed limit as seen through the
central city.
Furthermore, it has been seven
years since the community board
was consulted about the village
improvements. McIntosh said so
much has changed since then and
a re-think on the plan is needed.
“We support a review of what’s
needed in the area, as the Master
Plan improvements are an investment,”
McIntosh said.
Said Jennings: “It was that long
ago, I’d already forgotten about
it.”
Admin and dental assistant at
Redcliffs Dental, Leanne Price,
agreed saying there was a lot of
change in the area.
“Quite a lot is up in the air at
the moment, such as the supermarket
closing,” she said.
“We need to get the plan
right and do these improvements
once rather than in dribs and
drabs.”
Sayer said the proposal to push
the village regeneration to 2030
was a shame but was understandable.
“There are so many other projects
going on in Christchurch,”
she said.
“For example, a lot of money
has been spent on the Coastal
Pathway through the village
and we’re very grateful for those
facilities.”
The Sumner Master Plan has
also been allocated to the 2030/31
period in the draft plan.
IMPROVEMENTS: Main Rd through Redcliffs may
now only see upgrades in 10 years time. Brian (left)
and James Jennings at Redcliffs Butchery hope to

The Sumner Community
Residents’ Association has
requested a funding amount be
released from the Master Plan
in order for the Village Green to
be constructed at the same time
as the skate park in the coming
year. This is supported by the
community board.
Its argument is that this will
reduce costs overall, minimise
disturbance for residents and will
make the site safer.
Sumner Hub co-ordinator
Charlie Hudson said fencing
was needed along the back of the
Sumner Green and it would be
safer to fence the whole area at
the same time.
Furthermore, water fountains
and rubbish bins only feature in
the green area. If the two projects
are not delivered at the same
time, the skate park will be lacking
these facilities.
“We also want the skate park to
not just be a silo facility for one
group.”
“Having the picnic area, means
the space is integrated for everyone’s
use. That is the vision for
the Sumner Green,’’ Hudson said.
Said McIntosh: “We now just
have to wait and see what the city
council decides when they take
into account the consultations.”

Two Shakes of a Lamb’s Tail
The diary of a Country Vet
by danielle Hawkins
Two Shakes of a Lamb’s Tail is the funny, illuminating diary of a year in the life of a
New Zealand farm vet With a husband and two children, 1200 sheep and 400 cattle,
farm dogs and pet lambs, pigs bent on excavation and a goat bent on escape, country
life is never dull. From calving cows to constipated dogs, weddings to weaning lambs,
daffodils to ducklings to droughts, each season brings new challenges and delights.
Sometimes it’s exhausting but it’s almost always a lot of fun - anyway, it’s all part and
parcel of the life of a Kiwi mother, farmer’s wife and vet.
A Biker’s Tale
by John Hellemans
An hilarious tale about an epic event, written from a unique perspective. To be able to
appreciate the story, the reader needs to be young at heart, have a vivid imagination and
a love for adventure. If that sounds like you, join the writer on his journey, and experience
his daily ups and downs with him. The Tour Aotearoa is a mountain bike ‘brevet’ (a timed,
long-distance cycling event) covering the length of New Zealand. It starts at the most northern
point of the North Island, Cape Reinga, and finishes at Stirling Point, just south of Bluff at
the bottom of the South Island. The Tour is held biennially and requires participants to follow
a set route covering 3,000 km which consists of existing mountain bike trails scattered
throughout the country and connected by back country roads. The Tour is unsupported, so
participants carry their own gear. To be awarded the brevet, the riders need to cover the full
distance within 30 days. The writer took part in the 2018 edition of the Tour. His experience
was different from what he expected. He encountered all types of challenges, from getting
lost to physical ailments, serious weather events and loneliness. In between he had plenty
of time to contemplate and let his thoughts and imagination run free.
A High Country Life
Tales & recipes from a New Zealand Sheep Station
by Philippa Cameron
Life on Otematata Station, a 40,000 hectare high country station in Otago, is busy and
varied. Philippa Cameron and her husband, Joe, who is the fifth generation to work the
farm, help care for this vast tract of land with 30,000 merino sheep and 500 head of
cattle. It’s a sparse environment completely at the mercy of the elements, bringing with
it many challenges and seasonal demands. Told through the eyes of Philippa in her
role as station cook, this is the story of mustering in autumn, lambing in spring, the
freezing days of winter and the scorching heat of summer. Along with looking after her
two small girls, her garden and various animals, Philippa feeds the teams of workers.
She collects and shares a selection of delicious, hearty recipes with other farm cooks
on her popular Instagram page @whats_for_smoko. This book also features Philippa’s
most trusted recipes, tested on many approving musterers.
My Mother and Other Secrets
by Wendyl Nissen
When Wendyl Nissen’s mother was suffering with Alzheimer’s, she told some extraordinary
stories about her background that Wendyl had never heard before. Determined to get to the
bottom of these family secrets, Wendyl found some wild and intriguing stories of loss, grief
and love. She uncovered new relatives, deeply sad adoptions, harsh parenting, complex
marriages and a few rogues. These stories often highlighted how tough life was for women
and children in an era when women had to fight for every bit of independence they gained.
This compelling, moving book is about mothers and daughters, ageing and the way deep
family traumas echo down through the generations. It is also spliced with wisdom on caring
for someone with dementia.
The Light of Days
Women Fighters of the Jewish resistance
by Judy Batalion
A fascinating history about a little-known group who took on the Nazis . . . The individual
tales of these courageous young women are remarkable’ Independent One of the most
important untold stories of World War II, The Light of Days is a soaring landmark history
that brings to light the extraordinary accomplishments of brave Jewish women who inspired
Poland’s Jewish youth groups to resist the Nazis. Witnesses to the brutal murder of their
families and the violent destruction of their communities, a cadre of Jewish women in
Poland - some still in their teens - became the heart of a wide-ranging resistance network
that fought the Nazis. With courage, guile and nerves of steel, these ‘ghetto girls’ smuggled
guns in loaves of bread and coded intelligence messages in their plaited hair. They helped
build life-saving systems of underground bunkers and sustained thousands of Jews in safe
hiding places. They bribed Gestapo guards with liquor, assassinated Nazis and sabotaged
German supply lines. The Light of Days at last reveals the real history of these incredible
women whose courageous yet little-known feats have been eclipsed by time.

A SHORT FILM shot on Banks
Peninsula, edited and produced
by Governors Bay resident
Scott Flyger is premiering at the
Tribeca Film Festival in New
York.
This year is the festival’s 20th
anniversary and Flyger is excited
beyond belief that Peninsula is
screening there.
“It is a privilege to be selected
for a pretty competitive and
top-tier film festival. Our film
was chosen by people who don’t
know us,” Flyger said.
“This shows that it appeals to a
global audience.”
Flyger is a long-time friend
of the film’s writer and director
Fiona McKenzie. After catching
up several years ago, they both
lamented over the lack of narrative
projects made on Banks
Peninsula.
An idea began to brew. They
discussed making a television
web-series focused on real and
heart-warming content.
However, in order to source
the funds to start the series,
Flyger said, they “needed to
put themselves back on the
map.”
Peninsula was born.
It was then shot over three
days in Port Levy.
Flyger said Banks Peninsula is
the fourth character in the triage
character film.
“It has so many extremes, big
clouds or blue skies, you never
know what you’ll get but it’s a
beautiful place each way,” said
Flyger.
The film follows actors Tom
Trevella, McKenzie’s son Jasper
Sutcliffe and Amber Ranson

as they navigate nurturing old
relationships and making new
connections.
As an independent film, Flyger
said it was immensely fun to

to further delays for its
premiere.
Said Flyger: “It was quite wonderful
to get this news so long
after we started.”
The filmmakers are hoping
Peninsula will move the audience.
“Our measure of the film’s
success is connecting people,”
said Flyger.
“When people watch the film,
we want them to leave feeling
changed and uplifted; seeing
the world a bit differently than
before.”
The film festival was founded
by film producer Jane Rosenthal
and actor Robert de Niro in
2001.
It runs from June 9-20.

THE MOTHER of All Clean
Ups, where community groups,
schools and individuals alike
take to Christchurch’s urban
waterways to clean them up will
be held on Saturday.
Local groups taking part
include the Estuary Trust, Ferrymead
Rotary, the Mt Pleasant
Yacht Club, and the Redcliffs
Residents’ Association.
Avon-Heathcote Estuary
Ihutai Trust manager Tanya
Jenkins said there are three
places members of the public
can meet to help with the clean
up around the estuary.
People should meet at 10am
at either Ferrymead Park Drive
at the water’s edge (turning off
from Bridle Path Rd); the corner
of Settlers Cres and Tussock
Lane; or at South New Brighton
Park at the end of Beatty St by
the jetty.
Said Jenkins: “Wear closed
footwear, clothing to suit weather
on the day and bring gloves if
you have any.”
In spite of not having any
nearby waterways, Lyttelton

event on Friday.
The rubbish the school collects
will help inform the Lyttelton
community about where
further action is needed.
They will be clearing up rubbish
found in the stormwater
drains instead.
Launched in 2015, the Mother
of All Clean Ups has run every
year, with a home edition during
the Covid-19 lockdown.
During the 2019 clean-up,
more than 3.6 tonnes of rubbish
were collected from the city’s
rivers and the estuary.
The high five campaign is
also running alongside the
main event, where every one
is encouraged to pick up five
pieces of rubbish around their
local area.
ACTION: Lyttelton residents took to the Port Hills to clean up
rubbish during a spontaneous event.
2000 bottles collected
• From page 1
About 20 people from
Lyttelton, varying in ages, met
up on the Sunday and they spent
the next two hours clearing up
rubbish dumped on the Godley
Head grounds.
“Everyone had a smile on their
face,” Horay said.
“It was such a good vibe, just
‘let’s get this done’.”
The spontaneous event proved
to be extremely successful.
After two hours the group
collected seven car tyres, a stereo
system with sub and speakers,
more than 2000 bottles and much
more general rubbish.
It cost about $200 to dump the
rubbish. The money needed for
disposal was donated by one of
the volunteers.
There have been some discussions
on another clean-up occurring.
Many more people had
commented on Horay’s Facebook
post that they were eager to help
out another time.
“With more little groups doing
this regularly the better,” said
Horay.
“Sunday proved how much of
a positive affect small action can
have.”

Decked out Sumner Hub
van gets community moving
• By Samantha Mythen
THE SUMNER Hub’s van,
newly decked out with flash
logos, is seeing significant use
from the community since its
purchase late last year.
Sumner Hub co-ordinator
Charlie Hudson said the van is
well used by all sections of the
community, such as sports teams
and youth groups.
It is also used for school education
trips, transporting the
elderly to functions or shopping,
and is available for private hire.
Said Hudson: “At its core, the
van is used to grow community.
It encourages groups not only to
love where they live, but to also
explore wider Christchurch.”
The purchase of the new van
was made possible by the Ferrymead
Lions Club.
Said club president Bernie
Godden: “The Lions club is
delighted to see its investment
support growing community and
connection.”
More than two years ago, the
Sumner Community Residents’
Association asked the club for
assistance in raising funds to
replace the old van.
The club then ran fundraising
events, including pea straw sales

Newsom, Sumner Hub co-ordinator Charlie Hudson and

and sausage sizzles, from which
they donated $3500 to the purchase
of the new van.
A further $9500 was donated
from the Lloyd Morgan Trust.
Each Lions member in NZ
makes a small donation to the
trust each year.
The residents’ association
raised the remaining funds
needed. After consulting with
the community and community
groups to assess what they
needed, a vehicle was sourced for
community use in 2020.
Due to delays caused by
Covid-19, the new van was purchased,
delivered and fitted out
just before Christmas with the
help of Paul Kelly Motors.
Said Godden: “The van is now
fully branded with logos and is a
bright, cheerful recognition to all
the people that contributed to its
purchase.”

AKAROA’S HISTORIC Red

a historic reserve.
The Banks Peninsula
Community Board approved
a proposal for the house in
Takapūneke, Akaroa, to be

Last year the
city council

Stewart
purchased the
house for $2.55
million, more
than double its rating valuation
of $1.2 million.
Said Community board member
Jamie Stewart: “The history
of that site is right up there

able to run any businesses, or
anything like that. It just means
that the whole lot’s now part of
the Takapūneke [reserve].”
Takapūneke is a site of
significant history and most of
the land is officially classified as
a historic reserve, but the land
on which the Red House sits has
been in private ownership for
decades.
Takapūneke was once a
thriving commercial centre for
Ngāi Tahu under the authority
of Ngāi Tahu Rangatira Te Maiharanui.
This significant Ngāi Tahu
trading centre supplied
travelling vessels from Europe,
America and Australia in the
1820s.
The original Red House was
built in 1839 for William Green
and his family, who set up the
first cattle station in the South
Island. That house, which got
its name because it was painted
bright red, was destroyed by fire
in 1888. In 1924-25 a new Red
House was built to replace it.

Dealing with boy racers and bad driving
Lyttelton Sergeant Gerard
Peoples talks about
policing in the area
THE LYTTELTON station
comes under the community
services group within the
Canterbury district, which
means the staff here are
community liaison officers, or
what is commonly known as
community constables.
Lyttelton has a staff of one
sergeant and four constables.
Currently, one of the constables
has been seconded to the
burglary squad, based at central,
for 12 months, one is seconded to
the managed isolation facilities
until mid-June and another
will be seconded there for three
months in about two weeks’
time.
Each station in the city also
has community constables,
except for Christchurch South,
and Lyttelton staff cover some of
that area.
The primary role of
community constables is to
work with their communities
to identify and address areas of
concern.
One area that we have been
working on recently has been
concerns raised by locals
regarding driving behaviour in
the area, including anti-social
road users or boy racers.
Local police have conducted a
number of operations targeting
GERARD PEOPLES
Lyttelton Police
COMMUNITY: The Lyttelton station has a staff of one
sergeant and four constables.
anti-social road users with
support from district road
policing units. This has resulted
in a number of cars being
impounded, and a number of
drivers being disqualified by the
district court for six months.
A focus of these operations
has been to order vehicles with
noisy exhausts off the road as
the noise produced by these have
such a significant impact on the
residents of the area.
These cars will not be allowed
back on the roads until they are
corrected and independently
certified.
A significant portion of our
work is investigating complaint
files regarding matters varying
from protection order breaches
and neighbours at war to theft
and assaults.
This makes up the majority of
our work.
The geographic area that
we have responsibility for
community policing and lower
level enquiry files is quite a
bit bigger than most realise.
This includes the Christchurch
South station areas of Woolston,
Waltham, Sydenham,
Beckenham, Cashmere, and
Westmorland.
We also cover Sumner
through to Lyttelton, and the
bays through to Diamond
Harbour and over to Port Levy.
In addition to the community
liaison and lower level inquiry
files for the Sumner/Lyttelton/
Bays areas we are normally first
to be called to urgent matters in
those area such as family harm,
vehicle collisions and assaults, as
we are normally closer than city
units.
Having said all of that, there
are a number of centralised work
groups tasked with districtwide
responsibilities and these
extend to the Sumner, Lyttelton
and Bays areas. These include
specialist squads that deal with
burglaries, thefts of cars, fraud,
drug dealing, gang liaison,
family harm follow up and road
policing.
As station sergeant, I review
all offences reported to police
within our area in order to keep
up to date with what is going
on and to look into adjusting
what we are doing to address
emerging issues.
The boy racer issue is an
ongoing one and won’t be solved
overnight, but we will conduct
operations this month to
continue to address the issue.
On the matter of driver
behaviour in the area, Lyttelton
police have been making a
concerted effort to target
speeding drivers and riders along
the main roads through the bays,
with a significant number of
speeding tickets being issued in
recent weeks.

NINE-YEAR-old Victoria
Smith, a young fashionista,
has created a uniquely
Kiwi outfit out of beeswax
fabric to enter in the Toi
Wearable Art competition.
The event is for school
students and is run in collaboration
with the World
of WearableArt, which
also supplies the judges.
Victoria attends Heathcote
Primary School.
Victoria chose Aotearoa,
one of three briefs created
with WOW to inspire
her design. Pairing this
brief with her love of bees,
Victoria decided to create a
dress made out of beeswax
covered fabric.
Her eight-year-old sister,
Scarlett, also worked on
her own design, but with
the time restraints, she
took on a new role as
Victoria’s design assistant.
Parents cannot assist
with the creations, so the
sisters have been working
on their own volition –
choosing the fabric, making
a prototype, learning
how to sew, measuring,
cutting and hand-sewing
the dress together.
Using Canterbury-produced
beeswax, they also
covered the base fabric
with the medium themselves.
Victoria said her favourite
part of the process was
sewing, in spite of pricking
her fingers many times.
“The hardest part was
measuring and estimating
the length of the dress,”
she said.
Victoria is hoping to
wow judges in the wearable
arts competition.
Once the WOW
competition is over
Victoria and Scarlett will
re use the outfit and make
it into beeswax wraps
FUN:

that they will then sell
to raise money for the
Christchurch Beekeepers
Club to help protect and
support bees.
Their mother, Raewyn
is extremely proud of the
work they have done.
“Victoria loves fashion
and she loves designing
outfits,” she said.
“It wasn’t about the final
product, but the making
of it.”

Night sky to light up during glow festival
Cindy Driscoll
HORORATA Domain is ready
to glow on Saturday with a
crowd of 10,000 expected for the
Hororata Glow Festival.
Cindy Driscoll, of the
Hororata Community Trust,
said tickets were selling fast. To
control numbers, there would be
no gate sales after a huge turnout
of 14,000 people at the last
festival in 2019.
“(This) was an overwhelming
response for
just our second
event,” Driscoll
said.
This year, to
manage crowd
size and Covid-19
requirements,
numbers
will be limited to 10,000.
“Our community is looking
forward to this magical festival.
We have heaps of new activities
this year, including the UV Art
Zone, Mitre 10 Mega Warm Up
Cube and a fairy tree, just to
name a few,” Driscoll said.
“We also have the popular
activities from past years
returning, like the hot air
balloon walk through, the
University of Canterbury
interactive science activities and
the glow circus.”
Live music from the Selwyn
Community Choir, Sam
Bambery and The Bluesettes
and Chilton House would
entertain the crowd until the sun
went down and things began to
glow.

glow would happen any time
from 5.30pm.
Michael Oakley, of
Ballooning Canterbury, is looking
forward to the event, as are
the attending balloonists who
will be travelling from all over
New Zealand.
“They are so excited to be
coming back to our community.
We will be flying for the four
days leading up to the festival
so keep an eye on the skies,”
Oakley said.
Getting the balloons inflated
and ready to glow required
a huge team effort. Weather
conditions had to be perfect, he
said.
The balloons would be on
the ground and lit up like
giant lanterns, glowing in a
choreographed performance to
music.
Following the night glow
will be a special lighting effects
display that promises to be a real
show stopper, Driscoll said. DJ
Craig Shaw would keep the party
going as he cranked the tunes,
getting the young and young-atheart
up and dancing.
Surrounding the activities
and performances will be 80
stalls, including food, wine
tasting, treats for the kids, produce,
and a huge range of food
trucks.
With large numbers expected,
people are advised to allow extra
travel time and arrive early. The
gates open at 3pm.
The event is weather
dependent and if postponed will
be held on Sunday. A call on
postponement will be made by
7pm on Friday, and announced
on the event’s Facebook page.
Restoration draws wildlife back to reserve
THISTLEDOWN Reserve
is situated in Woolston, at
Thistledown Pl.
It comprises only 2258 sq m of
wetland area and is the source of
the Steam Wharf Stream which
connects with Heathcote River
at the Lyttelton Roundabout in
Ferry Rd.
A small city gem – a true example
of the original Canterbury
wetland with freshwater springs
continuously bubbling up keeping
this pure and clean water
temperature in the steam at a
constant cool 15 deg C.
Thirteen species of native
wetland birds had been recorded
there and 18 species of them have
been non-native.
The most common native
species being the grey warbler,
silvereye and fantail.
Pre-earthquake, it provided
habitat for short-finned eel and
whitebait. The 2010 and 2011
earthquakes caused the creek
banks to collapse, trees to fall
over, bird and fish life disappeared.
Temporary water drainage into
the reserve had been allowed
from local properties resulting in
pollution of this waterway.
Willow trees were left to thrive
to very quickly take over from
the native trees as maintenance
of this reserve by the city council
has been reduced post-earthquake
events.
Some urgency was required to
do something as the paths were
disappearing due to weed growth
and the reserve became a wilderness,
where locals became afraid
to walk through it.
The Estuary Trust stepped in
after we received permission,
support and supervision by city
council park rangers.
In 2016 the trust rounded up
local residents and started the
huge task of restoring this special
little place.
Volunteers, supervised by city
council ranger Karen Smith,
meet every third Saturday of each
month between 10am and noon
where we prune, weed and plant
and are amazed and delighted
with the return of birds, eel and
whitebait.
We would welcome an extra
pair of hand to weed, prune and
plant. We meet at the Thistledown
Pl entrance to the reserve.
No need to book, just turn up.
WILD: A pathway has been
restored at Thistledown
Reserve as part of the Avon-

Plenty of trick gear in Subaru’s
A READER emailed me the other
day. He had read my recent article
on the Subaru Forester hybrid.
I had made mention of the
horizontally-opposed (boxer)
engine that powers most Subaru
models, and how I related to the
design harking back to the 60s
when I first became interested in
motor vehicles.
Because I mentioned Jowett,
Porsche and Volkswagen the
reader suggested I had forgotten
other important manufacturers
that built flat-four engines – Alfa
Romeo and Lancia.
Sure, both those manufacturers
did produce flat-four engines,
Lancia certainly during the 60s,
but they weren’t commercially
available in New Zealand, and
Alfa Romeo’s flat-four came in
1971. I can reassure my correspondent
that I have fond memories
of the Alfa 33 that I evaluated
in 1989, its boxer engine was
indicative of the sporty image
that Alfa generated at that time.
This evaluation surrounds the
Forester, a non-hybrid model
new to Subaru’s books, of course,
powered by a boxer engine; it’s
a Sport variant also wearing an
X badge, a model that carries a
lot more cosmetic bling than the
model it is based on. The Forester
X Sport sits at $47,490, which is
bang in the middle of the range.
The series starts at $42,490 and
ends at $49,490 for the top-spec
Limited. Incidentally, the hybrid
model also lists at $47,490.
It would take some convincing
to get me into the X Sport, simply
because I find the entry-level
model more appealing, but for
those who want something just
that little bit out of the ordinary
in terms of looks, there’s no doubt
the X Sport has that appeal.
Bright orange cosmetic detailing
is used both inside and out,
there are orange accents on the
front, side and rear underguard
and roof rails, also on the dash
panel and centre console. The
seats are orange-stitched and,
in a nice touch, the cloth trim is
heated and is water-guarded.
To top it all off, the X Sport
SUBARU FORESTER X SPORT: High level of fitment for popular four-wheel-drive SUV.
model gets 18in black wheels,
the whole package is designed to
capture attention and it certainly
does that, it received favourable
comment during the time it was
in my care.
Elsewhere the X Sport model
gets plenty of other specification.
Major items include satellite
navigation, electric front seat
adjustment, keyless entry and
ignition, electric sunroof and
tailgate, and SI drive – Subaru’s
take on engine management
protocols – which can be
adjusted by the driver to suit
driving styles and the type of
journey ahead.

Sport, $47,490

4625mm; width, 1815mm;
height, 1730mm
• Configuration – Fourcylinder

2498cc,
136kW, 239Nm,
continuously variable
automatic
• Performance –
0-100km/h, 9.5sec
• Fuel usage – 7.4l/100km
It must also be mentioned that
the X Sport model also gets the
latest version of Subaru’s clever
Eyesight technology, a driver
assist system that contributes
greatly to a five-star Australasian
New Car Assessment Program
safety rating.
The Forester in this form hasn’t
lost sight of its fundamental concept,
even though it looks racy,
it is still the genuine off-the-seal
sport utility vehicle that will take
you to places many other SUVs
would balk at.
The Forester with its 220mm
ground clearance, permanently
engaged four-wheel-drive and
X-mode driver selectable power
proportioning system is adept offroad.
Just like the XV I evaluated
recently, the Forester had only
done just a few kilometres so I
didn’t venture off the seal, but
DETAIL: Orange stitching and trim garnish is used
extensively throughout the Forester X Sport’s interior.
I can report from my previous
experience in the Foresters I’ve
driven before that it has substantial
cross-country ability and
will cocoon the occupants with a
controlled, comfortable ride.
That’s the essence of the Forester,
it has beautiful suspension, the
ride is almost soft, but such is the
compliance within the front strut/
rear wishbone system that it is
delicate to ride in yet doesn’t lean
awkwardly in a sealed road corner.
Steering feel is tight, and
the suspension can be felt
moving providing the occupants
with a secure feel, one that
exudes confidence at the steering
wheel.
Like its stablemates, the X Sport
Forester gets the 2.5-litre version
of the quad-camshaft horizontally-opposed
engine. It is rated by
Subaru at 136kW and 239Nm,
these figures more than enough
to propel the vehicle in good
speed, you can expect a standstill
to 100km/h acceleration time of
around 9.5sec, with 6sec to make
120km/h from 80km/h.
Drive is channelled to each
corner through a seven-step
continuously variable transmission.
Subaru has done a good
job making this gearbox work
and feel like a traditional automatic,
I like the noticeable way
it changes ratios and, of course,
if you want to lock it in to any of
BLING: Muscular looks and attention to detail characterise
the Forester X Sport.
the pre-set steps you can do that
by paddle-shifters or at the main
gearshift lever itself.
One of the most important
figures that a Forester buyer
would be looking at is that of
its fuel consumption. It seems
we are in the age where that’s one
of the first questions I’m asked
when an evaluation car is in my
care.
Subaru has given the non-hybrid
Forster range a 7.4-litre per
100km combined cycle rating
(6.7l/100km hybrid). During
my time with the evaluation car
it was constantly listing around
8.2l/100km with 6l/100km showing
instantaneously at 100km, the
engine turning over slowly at just
1500rpm.
In my opinion these figures
are good for a mid-size SUV, and
when you factor in the many
other ingredients the Forester is a
worthy challenger in the crowded
SUV market.
I’ve made no secret over the
years of my enthusiasm for Subaru
product, it just feels so right to
be in, yet the range competes in
the mainstream market. Subaru
will be quick to point out that it
sees its product as being niche
market, and to a certain extent
that is correct, but when you pitch
the Forester against the multitude
of mainstream models it does slot
in perfectly.
I guess that’s why there is major
appeal, the Forester is a lot of
vehicle for the money, and in X
Sport form there is just that little
bit of extra individualism that will
lure those who like to stand out in
a crowd.
