Peninsula roads have speed<br />
reductions from tomorrow<br />
MOTORISTS ARE urged to<br />
take it slower as new safer speed<br />
limits are coming into effect on<br />
many of Banks Peninsula’s steep<br />
and winding rural roads and<br />
settlements.<br />
“Banks Peninsula has a<br />
complex network of winding<br />
roads and steep<br />
inclines which<br />
can be challenging,’’<br />
city council<br />
transport operations<br />
manager<br />
Steffan Thomas<br />
said.<br />
Steffan<br />
Thomas<br />
“Following<br />
consultation with<br />
the public earlier<br />
this year, we are dropping the<br />
speed limit on these roads from<br />
100km/h to 60km/h to make it<br />
safer for everyone,’’ Thomas said.<br />
The new speed limits come<br />
into effect tomorrow.<br />
Speed limits changes are also<br />
coming for Akaroa’s town centre.<br />
From tomorrow, a 40km/h<br />
speed limit will be in place on<br />
the majority of roads within the<br />
township.<br />
“Akaroa is attracting increasing<br />
numbers of daytrippers and<br />
holidaymakers so we want to<br />
keep vehicle speeds down for<br />
safety reasons,’’ Thomas said.<br />
Other speed limit changes<br />
COMPLEX: Speed limit changes across the peninsula will mean safer roads for all users.<br />
coming into effect tomorrow<br />
include Purau-Port Levy Rd reduced<br />
from 100km/h to 60km/h<br />
and 40km/h in the Port Levy<br />
settlement. Port Levy-Pigeon <strong>Bay</strong><br />
Rd reduced from 100km/h to<br />
60km/h with speeds of 60km/h<br />
or 40km/h within Pigeon <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />
Kukupa, near Pigeon <strong>Bay</strong>, will<br />
have a speed reduction from<br />
100km/h to 40km/h. Birdlings<br />
Flat, Kaitorete Spit, Little River<br />
and Okuti Valley will have<br />
speed limits of either 60km/h<br />

MORE SUBURBS and areas in<br />
the <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News region<br />
have joined the million-dollar<br />
property club (see pages 4-5).<br />
There are 18 suburbs and areas<br />
across Christchurch, Banks<br />
Peninsula and the Selwyn District<br />
where the average house<br />
price is $1 million-plus.<br />
On a national scale,<br />
Canterbury is still seen as<br />
being undervalued, which<br />
is good news for property<br />
owners. Buyers from outside<br />
of the area, particularly from<br />
Auckland, are hovering<br />
waiting for people to sell.<br />
When immigration resumes<br />
to pre-Covid days it will<br />
fuel demand and prices will<br />
news<br />
continue upwards.<br />
At the other end of the<br />
property scale, Birdlings<br />
Flat has the lowest average<br />
property value in Canterbury<br />
at $313,000.<br />
But I suspect people who<br />
own houses there paid a lot<br />
less when they bought the<br />
property.<br />

Sea wall to be repaired<br />
NEWS 3<br />
In Brief<br />
Darren Moses<br />
TWO DAMAGED and aged<br />
sections of Akaroa’s sea wall<br />
will be repaired over the coming<br />
weeks so that they are in tip-top<br />
shape for the summer ahead.<br />
The work will start next week<br />
and should be completed by<br />
mid-December. The cost is estimated<br />
at $585,000.<br />
Fulton Hogan will do the<br />
work by the Akaroa Recreation<br />
Grounds, between the boat<br />
ramp and boat park.<br />
“The sea wall<br />
around Beach<br />
Rd was constructed<br />
from<br />
unreinforced<br />
stone in the<br />
early 1900s<br />
and it is showing<br />
signs of its<br />
age,’’ said city<br />
council capital<br />
delivery (community) manager<br />
Darren Moses.<br />
“Constant wave action has<br />
undermined it in places and<br />
scoured out mortar and sediment.<br />
That has resulted in some<br />
voids opening up, which in turn<br />
has caused the path behind the<br />
sea wall to slump.<br />
“What we plan to do is repair<br />
the cracks and put additional<br />
rock protection in place at the<br />
base of the sea wall to support<br />
POPULAR: Akaroa’s sea wall has been undermined over time. Work to fix cracks and a<br />
slump will start next week.<br />
PHOTO: NEWSLINE<br />
it and protect it from further<br />
scouring. We will also fill the<br />
voids and repair the path.’’<br />
Similar repairs and maintenance<br />
will be carried out on the<br />
sea wall by the Akaroa Recreation<br />
Reserve as it too is being<br />
undermined by wave action.<br />
While the sea wall is being<br />
worked on some on-street parking<br />
in the Akaroa Recreation<br />
Reserve and Beach Rd will be<br />
restricted for safety reasons.<br />
The Beach Rd footpath and<br />
the Akaroa Recreation Reserve’s<br />
harbour edge will also be closed<br />
to pedestrians. Beach access,<br />
directly below the areas where<br />
the contractor is working, will<br />
be restricted during low tides.<br />
Public access to the boat ramp<br />
though will be maintained for<br />
the duration of the works.<br />
“It has taken a long time to<br />
obtain the consents needed to<br />
carry out the repairs on the sea<br />
wall because we are dealing with<br />
a heritage structure in a coastal<br />
environment, but we are now at<br />
the point where work can start,’’<br />
said Moses.<br />
“We know that Akaroa is<br />
a very popular spot over the<br />
summer months so our aim is<br />
to have the work on the sea wall<br />
completed by Christmas.’’<br />
COMPOST FOR ROSES<br />
Ferrymead Lions recently donated<br />
10 bags of compost to Heritage<br />
Roses Christchurch for use at the<br />
Memorial Rose Garden situated<br />
behind two tall macrocarpa<br />
hedges at Ferrymead Heritage<br />
Park. The memorial garden was<br />
developed to remember the 21<br />
railway workers who lost their<br />
lives in World War 2. Over the<br />
last five to six years a small group<br />
of volunteers has restored and<br />
replaced many of the special old<br />
roses some dating back to the<br />
early 1900s .The garden is worth<br />
a visit especially in late <strong>October</strong>,<br />
November and December when<br />
the roses are in full flower.<br />
COASTAL HAZARDS VIDEO<br />
The city council has made a video<br />
on how coastal hazards might<br />
impact Banks Peninsula and<br />
Christchurch in the future. It<br />
provides an overview of why the<br />
areas are at risk of coastal hazards<br />
and what might be expected to<br />
happen over the next <strong>20</strong>, 50 and<br />
100 years as sea levels rise. The<br />
video Coastal Hazards 101 video<br />
is on the city council website.<br />

Property values continue to skyrocket<br />
SUBURBS AND other areas<br />
in the <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News area<br />
feature in the $1 million plus<br />
property club.<br />
Figures just released show<br />
Redcliffs, Scarborough,<br />
Sumner, Clifton, Richmond<br />
Hill Teddington and Allandale<br />
are among 18 areas across<br />
Christchurch, Banks Peninsula<br />
and the Selwyn District where<br />
the average house price tops $1<br />
million.<br />
It is double the number 12<br />
months ago.<br />
In comparison Birdlings Flat<br />
has the lowest average property<br />
value in<br />
Canterbury at<br />
$313,000.<br />
According<br />
to the latest<br />
OneRoof-<br />
Valocity<br />
House Index,<br />
Owen<br />
Vaughan<br />
the average<br />
property value<br />
for all of New<br />
Zealand jumped five per cent to<br />
$1.021 million in the past three<br />
months.<br />
The growth rate is smaller<br />
than the 6.1 per cent seen in the<br />
previous three-month period, and<br />
suggests that prices are starting to<br />
ease nationwide.<br />
But in Canterbury, house prices<br />
continue to skyrocket.<br />
OneRoof editor Owen Vaughan<br />
said the region is unlike others<br />
around the country, which<br />
are starting to show signs of<br />
fatigue.<br />
Figures from the OneRoof<br />
Index show Canterbury’s average<br />
property value rose 29.8 per cent<br />
($163,000) in the year to <strong>October</strong><br />
1, well above the nationwide<br />
annual growth rate of 26.6 per<br />
cent.<br />
Its average property value has<br />
risen 8.2 per cent in the past three<br />
months, compared to growth of<br />
7.4 per cent in the previous three<br />
months.<br />
The Selwyn district is up 9.9 per<br />
cent over the last three months to<br />
$890,000 and Christchurch city is<br />
up 8.8 per cent to $718,000. They<br />
are the region’s hottest housing<br />
markets.<br />
A year ago, just nine<br />
Canterbury areas had an average<br />
property value of more than $1<br />
million. Now there are 18 in the<br />
$1 million club.<br />

Vaughan said the heat in<br />
Christchurch’s housing market<br />
is having a big impact on prices,<br />
which had long been static.<br />
A year ago, the average property<br />
value was $591,000, up just<br />
$59,000 on the year before.<br />
New mortgage registrations by<br />
first home buyers in Christchurch<br />
over the last quarter was 43.5 per<br />
cent – the highest amongst all<br />
South Island cities.<br />
The gain over the past 12<br />
months, however, has added<br />
an extra $160,000 on the price<br />
of a typical house in the city –<br />
$58,000 of which has been in the<br />
last three months.<br />
For first home buyers, that<br />
has pushed a <strong>20</strong> per cent deposit<br />
requirement up to $150,<strong>20</strong>0. An<br />
increase of $32,000 on last year’s<br />
figure.<br />
Christchurch’s most expensive<br />
suburb is also its hottest. Fendalton’s<br />
average house price grew<br />
11.3 per cent in the last three<br />
months to $1.659m – a gain of<br />
$169,000, more than the average<br />
gain for all of Christchurch in the<br />
last year.<br />
The city’s affordable housing<br />
market has also changed,<br />
Vaughan said.<br />
In September last year, there<br />
were 41 suburbs that had an average<br />
property value of less than<br />
$500,000, now there are just 18.<br />
Bexley is the city’s cheapest<br />
suburb, with an average property<br />
value of $319,000.<br />
Vaughan said the region’s<br />
relatively affordable prices are<br />
fuelling demand, with first home<br />
buyers by far the biggest buying<br />
group.<br />
They accounted for 40.4 per<br />
cent of all registrations in the<br />
three months to <strong>October</strong> 1.<br />
Investors’ share of the market<br />
has declined over the same period<br />
– from 24 per cent in the first<br />
quarter of the year to 23.7 per<br />

A COMMUNITY initiated food<br />
forest in Birdsey Reserve will be<br />
supported under a new proposal<br />
that has opened for consultation.<br />
Under the proposed two-stage<br />
plan, a food forest and garden<br />
currently being developed by<br />
local community groups would<br />
be continued, along with a revegetation<br />
programme involving<br />
students from Heathcote Valley<br />
School.<br />
The second stage would be to<br />
install dog exercise areas and<br />
extend the existing car park.<br />
Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />
Community Board chairwoman<br />
Alexandra Davids said there has<br />
been strong community interest<br />
in finding a local space for dogs<br />
to play and socialise safely.<br />
“Having a fenced exercise park<br />
accessible in the south-east is<br />
long overdue. It means owners<br />
can let their dogs off their lead to<br />
socialise in a tightly fenced and<br />
double-gated area without having<br />
to travel outside their local<br />
areas,” she said.<br />
“The two-stage process we’ve<br />
proposed would enable the<br />
revegetation planting at the<br />
reserve to continue, along with<br />
the community food forest and<br />
garden currently under development.<br />
“Subject to funding and further<br />
consultation requirements,<br />
stage two would see the dog<br />
exercise area installed and the<br />
existing car park extended.<br />
“But we really want to hear<br />
people’s thoughts on all aspects<br />
of the proposed plan. This is<br />
their neighbourhood, so we want<br />

Taking the rubbish out of recycling<br />
AKAROA’S Gloria Calcutt is a<br />
force to be reckoned with.<br />
Each week the diminutive<br />
85-year-old heads out with her<br />
foster son Keith. They’re on a<br />
mission to check the recycling<br />
collection points at remote communities<br />
on Banks Peninsula.<br />
Gloria used to drive herself,<br />
but when Keith got his heavy<br />
vehicle licence he took on the<br />
driving duties.<br />
Together they search for incorrect<br />
items in the bins and pull<br />
them out so when the pickup<br />
trucks come there won’t be any<br />
contamination.<br />
It’s all part of the service provided<br />
by Waste Line, the business<br />
owned by Gloria and her<br />
son Julian for the past 31 years.<br />
Waste Line is a subcontractor<br />
on the city council contract to<br />
provide waste services to more<br />
than 15,000 Banks Peninsula<br />
households.<br />
There’s always plenty of talk as<br />
the truck winds its way through<br />
Okains <strong>Bay</strong>, Le Bons <strong>Bay</strong>, Little<br />
Akaloa, Pigeon <strong>Bay</strong>, Onuku and<br />
Robinsons <strong>Bay</strong> – a solid three-tofour<br />
hour journey.<br />
“Keith chats a lot,” says Gloria.<br />
“I love it, it’s very enjoyable. I like<br />
the beauty of it.”<br />
It’s a chance for Keith to get<br />
any problems off his chest as<br />
Gloria lends a listening ear.<br />
CLEAN-UP: Gloria Calcutt and Keith make weekly trips to check recycling points on<br />
the Peninsula.<br />
PHOTO: NEWSLINE<br />
At the collection point the<br />
pair are all business, fishing out<br />
items that shouldn’t be there<br />
and recording them in Gloria’s<br />
notebook.<br />
“We’re trying to do the right<br />
thing, make the product as acceptable<br />
as possible (for resale)”,<br />
she says.<br />
People are often confused<br />
about what can be recycled.<br />
“The things that they slip up<br />
on are soft plastic, lids and dirty<br />
containers– it could be at least<br />
an inch in a tomato sauce bottle<br />
that’s been put in here or a peanut<br />
butter jar that’s got half of it<br />
left. The other things are coffee<br />
cups and milk cartons. We can’t<br />
take silver foil or polystyrene<br />
either.”<br />
She says when the city council<br />
first started recycling items were<br />
separated into open-top crates,<br />
which made it easier for people<br />
to sort and more obvious if the<br />
wrong materials were presented<br />
for recycling.<br />
Nowadays people try to use the<br />
wheelie bins for ‘wish cycling’ –<br />
putting materials in the bin in<br />
the hope they get recycled. This<br />
can mean good recycling goes to<br />
landfill as it is contaminated by<br />
the wrong items.<br />
“You might find one that’s very<br />
heavy and you check and find<br />
there’s a lump of concrete at the<br />
bottom!”<br />
New signs are about to go up at<br />
the collection points, which will<br />
hopefully help spread the message<br />
about what can and can’t be<br />
recycled.<br />
Four years ago, Keith came<br />
up with the idea of collecting<br />
old whiteware and cars for scrap<br />
metal – with all proceeds going<br />
to the Akaroa Hospital rebuild.<br />
Gloria was a midwife and<br />
matron at the hospital for many<br />
years and the hospital rebuild is<br />
close to her heart.<br />
So far they’ve raised around<br />
$78,000 towards the cause,<br />
something they’re both proud of.<br />
It’s as if the two parts of her<br />
working life have come full<br />
circle.<br />
Asked when she’ll stop doing<br />
the weekly checks Gloria shakes<br />
her head fiercely. Not anytime<br />
soon.<br />

Still Standing<br />
What i’ve learnt from a life lived differently<br />
by Jess Quinn<br />
Jess Quinn is, in her own words, quite literally a walking miracle. Her body<br />
has been completely restructured so that she could survive an aggressive<br />
cancer. Jess’ leg was amputated when she was a young child, and she<br />
has worn a prosthetic leg ever since. She’s created a successful modelling<br />
career, has a huge following on social media, was on Dancing with the Stars<br />
and is outspoken on the subject of body diversity. She has strong messages<br />
about resilience. Jess has a remarkable way of talking about her pain and<br />
difficulties, and is inspirational in her response to the difficulties that have<br />
beset her. Her philosophy embraces the fact that none of us get to keep the<br />
body we were born in; we all bear scars that become part of our stories.<br />
Marae — Te Tatau Pounamu<br />
a Journey around new Zealand’s meeting Houses<br />
by muru Walters, robin Walters and sam Walters<br />
A magnificent, prize-winning documentation of and tribute to New Zealand’s<br />
wharenui, big and small. Bishop Muru Walters is a very well-known Anglican<br />
minister. He is also a master carver, poet, broadcaster and former Maori All Black.<br />
His son Robin is a photographer and filmmaker, who is director at Curious Films.<br />
Sam Walters, Robin’s wife, is a photographer. Together the Walters spent three<br />
years visiting some of this country’s major meeting houses as well as many of the<br />
more humble ones — houses that serve smaller hapu and iwi — to bring together<br />
a beautiful photographic book on the meeting house. From north to south, from<br />
the east coast to the west, and from ancient wharenui to bold new designs, this<br />
handsome book, with its engaging personal text, captures the huge variety of New<br />
Zealand’s original architecture. It’s a book for all New Zealanders to treasure.<br />
Hellzapoppin’! The Art of Flying Nun<br />
by Peter Vangioni, Kath Webster, russell Brown and<br />
roger shepherd<br />
Unruly art and design from the early years of Flying Nun Records. From rare<br />
collectible records and vintage posters to original artworks and paste-up<br />
designs, this 92 page book explores the art and artists behind some of New<br />
Zealand’s favourite bands. Entertaining essays from are interspersed with<br />
brief interview-style contributions from the people responsible for creating the<br />
art of the label. Heavily illustrated, it features original artwork for the records<br />
and posters, photography from the archives, and rarely seen vinyl releases<br />
and posters. By talking to the people responsible, this book will burst a few<br />
enduring myths, and maybe start some new ones.<br />
Operation Trojan Horse the true story behind<br />
the secret of Flight 149 and the most shocking government<br />
cover-up of the last thirty years. by stephen davis<br />
On 1 August, 1990, British Airways Flight 149 departed from Heathrow airport,<br />
destined for Kuala Lumpur. It never made it there, and neither did its nearly 400<br />
passengers. Instead, Flight 149 stopped to refuel in Kuwait, as Iraqi troops amassed<br />
on the border - delivering the passengers and crew into the hands of Saddam<br />
Hussein and the Iraqi army, to be used as ‘human shields’ during their invasion.<br />
There is an exchange of favours at the highest echelons of government, and a secret,<br />
unaccountable organization - authorised by Margaret Thatcher - carrying out a<br />
‘deniable’ intelligence operation to sneak in a group of intelligence officers into Kuwait<br />
aboard the flight. The plane was the ‘Trojan Horse’, and the plan - as well as the<br />
horrific, traumatic consequences for the civilian passengers - has been lied about,<br />
denied and covered up by successive British Governments ever since.<br />

What happens to wheelie bin waste<br />
City<br />
council<br />
resource<br />
recovery<br />
manager<br />
Ross<br />
Trotter<br />
lifts the lid<br />
on what happens with<br />
the stuff you put in your<br />
red, green and yellow<br />
wheelie bins<br />
REMEMBER THE empty<br />
tomato sauce bottle you put<br />
in your yellow wheelie bin for<br />
recycling? Did you know it could<br />
end up back in your house as<br />
a supermarket meat tray or a<br />
strawberry punnet?<br />
What about those empty<br />
aluminium drink cans that went<br />
into the yellow bin?<br />
They will get recycled back<br />
into new aluminium cans.<br />
Most of us are too busy to give<br />
much thought to what happens<br />
to the items we put out for<br />
recycling, but often they go on<br />
quite a circular journey.<br />
Once the items are picked up<br />
by the kerbside recycling trucks,<br />
they are taken to the Materials<br />
Recovery Facility in Wigram,<br />
operated by EcoCentral. There,<br />
they pass through a range of<br />
machinery that separates them<br />
into different product types. The<br />
sorted materials then get sent<br />
off to national and international<br />
reprocessing plants.<br />
The bales of aluminium and<br />
steel cans get sold locally for<br />
recycling, while the glass is<br />
crushed into sand used for road<br />
fill.<br />
EcoCentral sells bottles and<br />
containers numbered 1 to a New<br />
Zealand-based processor, who<br />
remanufactures them into clear<br />
meat trays or strawberry punnets<br />
for supermarkets.<br />
Plastics numbered 2 and 5<br />
are also reprocessed into other<br />
useful products.<br />
Paper and cardboard get<br />
sent overseas for recycling. The<br />
market for these is extremely<br />
competitive. To maximise<br />
the price we receive we need<br />
to produce clean, untainted<br />
materials. Because we are a small<br />
supplier in a global market, we<br />
risk losing our buyers if we don’t<br />
meet high quality standards with<br />
our recycling.<br />
That is one of the reasons why<br />
we are constantly asking people<br />
to take care with their recycling<br />
and only put accepted items in<br />
the yellow bin.<br />
We want to recycle as much<br />
as possible because it is better<br />
for the environment and helps<br />
REPURPOSED: Containers numbered ‘1’ often get a new<br />
life as meat trays or strawberry punnets.<br />
off-set the costs of processing<br />
recyclables. Even when<br />
commodity prices for recyclables<br />
are low, it still costs significantly<br />
less to recycle than to dispose of<br />
the same material in landfill.<br />
Our kerbside rubbish, organics<br />
and recycling collection service<br />
costs about $40 million a year<br />
to run. The money comes from<br />
the rates Christchurch property<br />
owners pay.<br />
If we lose access to any of our<br />
recycling markets, it is likely we<br />
will have to send more material<br />
to landfill. This will push up the<br />
cost of the kerbside collection<br />
service, which in turn will hit<br />
ratepayers in the pocket.<br />
It is important too that people<br />
keep their green wheelie bin for<br />
organic waste only and not put<br />
general rubbish in it.<br />
This is because the material we<br />
collect from the green wheelie<br />
bins is processed locally into<br />
certified organic compost, which<br />
is used around the South Island,<br />
mostly by the agriculture sector.<br />
When the contents of your<br />
green bin are collected at the<br />
kerbside, they are trucked to the<br />
Organics Processing Plant in<br />
Bromley – the biggest composting<br />
facility of its kind in New<br />
Zealand. There, the green waste<br />
gets put through a shredder, with<br />
138 teeth on it, to break the material<br />
down. It is moved into one<br />
of 18 sealed tunnels, where most<br />
of the composting happens. The<br />
composted material is then taken<br />
outside to fully mature.<br />
When the maturation process<br />
is complete, the compost is sold<br />
to businesses and farms around<br />
Canterbury and beyond.<br />
Around 55,000 tonnes of kerbside<br />
organic material a year are<br />
processed through the plant.<br />
This is food and green waste that<br />
would otherwise go to landfill.<br />
If we want to continue to<br />
divert as much waste as possible<br />
from the landfill, we need people<br />
to put the right stuff in the right<br />
bins. Most of you have improved,<br />
but we need everyone to get on<br />
board.<br />
Please remember too that<br />
when it comes to cutting waste<br />
the choices you make when you<br />
shop are powerful. Try and opt<br />
for items with the least amount<br />
of packaging or items that are<br />
able to be recycled in the yellow<br />
bin or alternative recycling<br />
schemes.<br />
The best way to reduce the<br />
amount of rubbish we are<br />
sending to landfill is to prevent<br />
waste in the first place.<br />

Treasures from the<br />
past: Remembering<br />
the Great Fire, 1870<br />
THIS COMING Sunday marks 151 years<br />
since Lyttelton was decimated by fire.<br />
The fire began at about 9pm and was<br />
suspected to have started in packing cases<br />
filled with straw behind the Queen’s Hotel<br />
on the corner of London and Oxford Sts.<br />
It spread very rapidly through the mainly<br />
timber structures of the township.<br />
Valiant local efforts were made to<br />
contain the inferno by the ‘hook and<br />
ladder’ brigade, by prisoners from the gaol<br />
and by seamen organised by the publican<br />
of the Mitre Hotel, who bucketed beer<br />
from barrels in an attempt to protect the<br />
shingled roof.<br />
Eventually, after frantic messages via<br />
the telegraph office, a fire brigade and<br />
fire steam engine arrived by train from<br />
Christchurch, along with the mayor of<br />
and several city councillors.<br />
The sight that greeted The Press reporter,<br />
who also travelled on that train, was just<br />
awful.<br />
“At this time the scene was terrifically<br />
grand, the whole block, some three acres<br />
in area, being one solid mass of fire,<br />
lighting up the harbour and surrounding<br />
hills. The scene on the reclaimed land was<br />
of a most painful character, women and<br />
children being huddled together on heaps<br />
of furniture, utterly homeless, and only<br />
partially clothed.”<br />
The fire was finally contained in the<br />
early hours of the morning, but its consequences<br />
were very evident come daylight:<br />
approximately two thirds (5 acres) of the<br />
township had been razed; 30 local businesses<br />
and many private residences left<br />
with only their chimneys standing.<br />
Though many people had lost their<br />
homes and livelihoods, it was remarkable<br />
there were no serious injuries or deaths.<br />
At the time it was New Zealand’s worst<br />
urban fire, but it would not be the only<br />
time that Lyttelton was badly affected.<br />
Aside from numerous shipboard,<br />
business and residential fires over the<br />
years, a large blaze on Christmas Eve 1942<br />
– beginning in Rhinds store on Norwich<br />
Quay but fanned by a strong wind –<br />
caused significant damage on Norwich<br />
Quay and Canterbury St.<br />
The Great Fire of 1870, as the fire of<br />
<strong>October</strong> 24 came to be known, was the<br />
catalyst for the establishment of the<br />
Lyttelton Volunteer Fire Brigade in 1873,<br />
members of which have served Lyttelton<br />
through multiple disasters and gained the<br />
highest respect and appreciation by local<br />
residents.<br />

ARA INSTITUTE OF CANTERBURY<br />
Second time lucky<br />
at tertiary study<br />
After an unhappy experience studying<br />
engineering at university, 23-year-old Kylie<br />
Wilson says she was “seriously put off ”<br />
tertiary education to the point she never<br />
thought she’d go back to study.<br />
“I left uni due to the lack of support,<br />
intense workload and inability to specialise<br />
in the way I thought I could,” says Kylie.<br />
Fortunately, friends who’d studied at Ara<br />
Institute of Canterbury convinced her that<br />
she’d have a completely different experience<br />
if she went there. “And they were absolutely<br />
right,” she says. “To this day, studying at Ara<br />
has been the best decision I’ve made.”<br />
Kylie says she’s enjoying everything about<br />
being at Ara, where she’s studying two<br />
diplomas concurrently – one in quantity<br />
surveying and the other in civil engineering.<br />
“I love the small class sizes and the ability<br />
to really get to know your tutors and learn<br />
more from them. The tutors are awesome;<br />
they know you by name and are always<br />
willing to help, no matter whether you’re<br />
struggling or you’re a high achiever who<br />
wants to get a more detailed understanding<br />
of the content for your own benefit or<br />
interests. They’re also happy to discuss<br />
their industry experience with you which is<br />
invaluable knowledge and something you<br />
don’t get from university.”<br />
Having not been able to specialise as she’d<br />
wanted to at university, Kylie is making the<br />
most of her double diploma approach at<br />
Ara. “I saw this huge cross-over between<br />
the two disciplines of quantity surveying<br />
and civil engineering, and the extremely<br />
valuable benefits of being both a QS and a<br />
Ryan<br />
Ara graduate<br />
civil engineer.”<br />
Kylie has also been impressed with Ara’s<br />
supportive learning environment and the<br />
ability to study full-time and balance other<br />
commitments easily. “It’s given me a wide<br />
range of opportunities and experiences,<br />
along with a work/life balance.”<br />
After a less than ideal university<br />
experience, Kylie is quick to encourage<br />
others to study at Ara. “Just do it,” she<br />
says. “My biggest regret was taking 18<br />
months away from study because I was too<br />
scared to go back after my experience at<br />
university. Everything at Ara is manageable<br />
and practical – in my opinion it’s the polar<br />
opposite to university-style learning.”<br />

Sorento a serious foray into hybrid market<br />
IT MAY SURPRISE you to know<br />
that Kia has 10 Sorento models<br />
listed in the Kiwi market.<br />
What’s probably more of a<br />
surprise is that six of those are<br />
hybrids. Even though Kia has<br />
embraced the hybrid concept<br />
and electric-only cars, it hasn’t<br />
forgotten the grass roots models<br />
that have made this large<br />
seven-seat sport utility vehicle a<br />
favourite here, the 2.2-litre diesel<br />
engine is still available in four<br />
levels of specification starting at<br />
$59,990 and ending at $76,990.<br />
This evaluation surrounds<br />
what I consider to be the most<br />
interesting model in the Sorento<br />
line-up, it’s not just a hybrid but<br />
a plug-in hybrid.<br />
Hybrids today need no<br />
introduction, they are the go-to<br />
models for buyers who feel they<br />
are doing something for the<br />
environment but like to have<br />
the range and flexibility petrol<br />
engines offer. Well, the Sorento<br />
PHEV expands on those two<br />
factors, you further save fuel<br />
by plugging in and charging<br />
from a household or nationwide<br />
charging station. There are<br />
two cables, one for three-pin<br />
domestic supply, the other for<br />
quick charging at a designated<br />
port such as those you will find<br />
at malls or supermarkets.<br />
One of the benefits of plug-in<br />
technology is the ability to run<br />
the Sorento in EV mode only;<br />
you can select that manually, but<br />
if you are gentle on the throttle<br />
the Sorento automatically<br />
defaults to electric mode itself,<br />
it’s only when there is a lot of<br />
load or the batteries are low that<br />
the petrol engine comes in. Kia<br />
claims a 57km run on electriconly<br />
along with a combined<br />
petrol and electric distance of<br />
over 600km.<br />
Kia also claims a 1.9-litre<br />
per 100km combined cycle<br />
fuel usage average, that’s pretty<br />
spectacular. During my testing<br />
time the readout was constantly<br />
listing around 4l/100km, with<br />
5l/100km sitting instantaneously<br />
at 100km/h.<br />
Therein lies another surprise.<br />
The Kia Sorento PHEV has a<br />
1.6-litre petrol engine. Some<br />
might argue that’s a small<br />
capacity for such a big car, but<br />
I can report the turbocharged<br />
132kW unit – loaned from<br />
Cerato and Seltos – combined<br />
with the 63kW electric motor<br />
has plenty of performance.<br />
In terms of total power output<br />
Kia claims a combined figure<br />
of 195kW and 350Nm, which<br />
is more than adequate, the<br />
Sorento PHEV isn’t overly heavy<br />
CHARGED UP: The Sorento’s batteries can go from empty<br />
to full in less than four hours from a designated port.<br />
KIA SORENTO PREMIUM: Seven-seat SUV that is a true fuel-miser.<br />
at 1915kg, so the power-toweight<br />
ratio is healthy enough.<br />
Acceleration times of 8.9sec to<br />
make 100km/h and 5.6sec to<br />
reach 1<strong>20</strong> from 80km/h are more<br />
than satisfactory.<br />
These figures are up to par and<br />
elsewhere the Sorento PHEV is<br />
no different to drive than any of<br />
its stablemates or competition,<br />
power is directed through a<br />
traditional six-speed automatic<br />
transmission to all four wheels.<br />
I took the evaluation vehicle<br />
on a long highway cruise<br />
through to Glenroy and home<br />
via Hororata. I only ventured<br />
off the seal for a short shingle<br />
road burst that also included a<br />
ford of the Hororata River, albeit<br />
running nothing more than a<br />
puddle. The four-wheel-drive<br />
network wasn’t challenged, but<br />
I did notice that the driveline<br />
was keen to extract grip from<br />
all corners, the system kicking<br />
in without driver intervention.<br />
However, there are drive modes<br />
that can be selected to suit the<br />
journey ahead.<br />
On the seal, the Sorento is<br />
superbly comfortable and quiet<br />
on those long open roads,<br />
when the tight corners present<br />
themselves the Sorento steers<br />
with dignity and accuracy.<br />
Body movement is controlled<br />
through compliant spring and<br />
• Price – Kia Sorento PHEV<br />
Premium, $89,990<br />
• Dimensions – Length,<br />
4810mm; width, 1900mm;<br />
height, 1700mm<br />
• Configuration – Fourcylinder,<br />
four-wheel-drive,<br />
1598cc, 132kW (+63kW),<br />
265Nm (+85Nm), sixspeed<br />
automatic<br />
• Performance – 0-100km/h,<br />
8.9sec<br />
• Fuel usage – 1.6l/100km<br />
damper rates, on-board comfort<br />
hasn’t been compromised. Kia<br />
has engineered the battery pack<br />
to sit sandwiched between the<br />
cabin floor and the underfloor,<br />
consequently, weight is<br />
low which counteracts any<br />
gravitational force up top.<br />
That comfort is the essence<br />
of the Sorento, it is an SUV<br />
that borders on the luxury car<br />
market, yet such is its placement<br />
in the market it must be<br />
considered a mainstream model.<br />
The Sorento PHEV comes<br />
in two specifications, the EX<br />
variant lists at $74,990, the<br />
evaluation car was a Premium<br />
model that adds $15k. For<br />
interest’s sake, the traditional<br />
hybrid range starts at $63,990<br />
and ends at $82,990. If you are<br />
quick to order you may well<br />
qualify for the $5750 discount as<br />
part of the Government’s Clean<br />
Car Programme feebate scheme.<br />
In Premium form the<br />
Sorento is full of kit, nothing<br />
has been left out that would<br />
jeopardise desirability. Items for<br />
comfort and convenience are<br />
manyfold, and most of the major<br />
functions are operated through<br />
a deep and vast central display<br />
system.<br />
Full leather trim is included<br />
with heated seats up front. Other<br />
major items include satellite<br />
navigation, electric sunroof,<br />
paddle-shifters, heated steering<br />
wheel, head-up display, keyless<br />
entry and ignition, electric<br />
tailgate (also automatic), radar<br />
cruise control and a host of other<br />
key features. The Sorento PHEV<br />
has also been crash tested,<br />
claiming a five-star Australasian<br />
New Car Assessment Program<br />
safety rating.<br />
Kia New Zealand has made<br />
no secret of the supply issues<br />
that are affecting the majority<br />
of new car distributors, Sorento<br />
buyers will have to wait around<br />
six months for the plug-in<br />
model. However, I’m of the<br />
belief if that is the road you want<br />
to go down (no pun intended) it<br />
will most certainly be worth the<br />
wait.<br />
