PROPOSALS FOR speed limit<br />

reductions on State Highway 75<br />

have been met with fierce resistance<br />

from some motorists on Banks<br />

Peninsula.<br />

The new plans would see the<br />

45km stretch of road between<br />

Halswell and Little River have an<br />

80km/h speed limit imposed, reducing<br />

it from the current <strong>10</strong>0km/h.<br />

Advocates for the reduction<br />

say the move would reduce the<br />

likelihood of crashes along the<br />

road and, when crashes did occur,<br />

the resulting injuries would likely<br />

be less serious and the number of<br />

deaths minimised.<br />

The changes come as Waka<br />

Kotahi NZ Transport Agency<br />

continues its Road to Zero safety<br />

campaign, which aims to create<br />

environments where no one is killed<br />

or seriously injured on the country’s<br />

roads.<br />

According to NZTA, Canterbury<br />

has the second highest rate of fatal<br />

crashes in the country, and SH75<br />

was the route that carried the<br />

highest risk for accidents in the<br />

province.<br />

A PROPOSAL to reduce the speed<br />

limit from <strong>10</strong>0km/h to 80km/h along<br />

the 45km stretch of State Highway 75<br />

between Halswell and Little River has<br />

been met with fierce resistance from<br />

some residents, who argue that better<br />

infrastructure is the answer (page 1).<br />

According to the NZTA, Canterbury<br />

has the second highest rate of<br />

fatal car crashes in the country, and<br />

SH75 is the route that carries the<br />

highest risk in the province. In the<br />

past decade, there has been more<br />

than 700 crashes along the highway,<br />

with the majority of these happening<br />

on the Halswell to Little River stretch<br />

of road. It’s clear that something<br />

needs to be done.<br />

Maori pou destroyed by<br />

vandals in ‘pointless act’<br />

NEWS 3<br />

APPROVED: Work will start on the Heathcote cycle<br />

connection next year.<br />

PHOTO: NEWSLINE<br />

A POPULAR Māori carving<br />

at Cass <strong>Bay</strong> near Lyttelton was<br />

vandalised over the weekend.<br />

The statue, Kōauau o Tāne<br />

Whakapiripiri, is at Pony Point<br />

Reserve between Rapaki <strong>Bay</strong> and<br />

Cass <strong>Bay</strong> and is part of a popular<br />

walking track in Governors <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />

A post on Twitter included pictures<br />

of the destruction and said<br />

they were “absolutely furious and<br />

devastated to hear of this act of<br />

pointless vandalism at Cass <strong>Bay</strong>”.<br />

Police confirmed they have<br />

received a report of wilful damage<br />

to a pouwhenua and want<br />

to hear from anyone with any<br />

information.<br />

The pou was one of two that<br />

were gifted and installed in the<br />

Lyttelton area in 2012.<br />

Kōauau o Tāne Whakapiripiri<br />

was installed at Ōtūherekio and<br />

marks a modern boundary<br />

between Rāpaki territory and<br />

Kemp’s Deed – a post treaty<br />

document. It also marks where<br />

Māori called their guests onto<br />

On installation the then deputy<br />

mayor Ngaire Button said that<br />

placing the pou “was a way of celebrating<br />

the goodwill and sharing<br />

between Pākehā and Māori that<br />

happened in early colonial times<br />

and this is a genuine bicultural<br />

acknowledgement of the histories<br />

of Christchurch and the harbour<br />

Last stage of cycleway<br />

gets the green light<br />

THE FINAL section of the<br />

Heathcote Expressway cycleway<br />

has been given the go ahead, with<br />

construction expected to start<br />

early next year.<br />

This section of the Heathcote<br />

Expressway is one of the Government’s<br />

‘shovel ready’ projects to<br />

stimulate the economy.<br />

The cycleway runs from the<br />

central city to Heathcote, via<br />

Woolston. The first part, from the<br />

central city to The Tannery, was<br />

completed in 2019.<br />

Last week the city council’s Urban<br />

Development and Transport<br />

Committee approved the route<br />

for the final section, from The<br />

Tannery to Heathcote.<br />

The committee agreed on a<br />

design that keeps the two-way<br />

access on the section of Cumnor<br />

Tce between Maunsell St and<br />

Chapmans Rd. The council had<br />

consulted on the possibility of<br />

making this section one-way.<br />

The committee also approved<br />

consultation on a 40km/h speed<br />

limit on Cumnor Tce alongside<br />

the cycleway.<br />

Urban Development and<br />

Transport Committee chair Mike<br />

Davidson said, “We’re already<br />

seeing cyclists enjoying the city<br />

end of the Heathcote Expressway<br />

cycleway and the Heathcote end<br />

of the route is another key part of<br />

our city-wide cycleway network.<br />

“We’re also keen to hear from<br />

the community on a 40km/h<br />

speed limit along Cumnor Tce,<br />

which would help to create a<br />

safer environment for everyone<br />

using the road or the cycleway by<br />

Ōpāwaho Heathcote river.”<br />

Both construction of the<br />

cycleway and consultation on the<br />

speed limit is expected to start in<br />

February. Construction will take<br />

about a year.<br />

of photos and<br />

written accounts, providing a<br />

snapshot of life during World<br />

War 2 from the point of view of<br />

those who lived through it.<br />

Fascinating and genuine, it<br />

shows the human side of war<br />

through dozens of first-hand<br />

memories, stories and reflections<br />

on wartime life in New Zealand<br />

and overseas. Edited by Renee<br />

Hollis, the book is designed as<br />

a tribute to the resilience and<br />

bravery of those who served<br />

in the conflict, and a historical<br />

account that will teach younger<br />

generations about the lives of<br />

their ancestors.<br />

The 296-page hardcover publication,<br />

which retails for $69.99, is<br />

the result of more than <strong>10</strong>0 families<br />

sending Hollis letters, diaries<br />

and photos from people living in<br />

the following extract:<br />

HOME GUARD<br />

In April, 1942, Home Guard<br />

membership became compulsory<br />

for civilian men aged between 35<br />

and 50 years. Initially, the guards<br />

were not supplied with uniforms<br />

and had to make do with an<br />

armband. For a long time there<br />

was a shortage of weapons and<br />

they depended on rifles provided<br />

by civilians. There were compulsory<br />

evening parades (with<br />

fines for absentees) and weekend<br />

training. The minimum amount<br />

of training was eight hours a<br />

month.<br />

Murray Moore: Okains <strong>Bay</strong><br />

Home Guard<br />

“Each village and town formed<br />

a Home Guard unit made up<br />

of men who were too old, unfit<br />

or were home because they<br />

were an essential industry. The<br />

Okains <strong>Bay</strong> Home Guard (Banks<br />

Peninsula) had several men, such<br />

as my father, who had fought<br />

overseas in WWI. The men were<br />

issued with a tunic and a beret.<br />

Each Sunday after church and<br />

an early lunch all the families<br />

went down to the long, sandy<br />

beach and the sand dunes for<br />

drills. It was thought that if the<br />

Japanese invaded they maybe<br />

would land on our beach.<br />

At the beach were two rows of<br />

three gallows there from which<br />

were hung sacks stuffed with<br />

hay. The men fixed bayonets to<br />

camp in Burnham. He also<br />

brought weapons for the men to<br />

guns and pistols.<br />

While the men were doing this<br />

the other people gathered mussels<br />

from the rocks, built a fire<br />

and boiled a big billy of water.<br />

When the men returned a cup<br />

of tea was made and the mussels<br />

were placed in the embers. When<br />

Consultation lacking – residents<br />

• From page 1<br />

In the past decade alone, there<br />

has been more than 700 crashes<br />

along the highway, resulting in<br />

nine deaths and 72 people suffering<br />

serious injuries, with the majority<br />

of these happening on the Halswell<br />

to Little River stretch.<br />

However, the statistics have not<br />

stopped the uproar from some<br />

residents who believe the reduced<br />

speed limit will not prevent crashes<br />

or reduce the toll of dead and<br />

injured along the highway.<br />

Little River<br />

resident and<br />

strong advocate<br />

for roading<br />

infrastructure<br />

upgrades and<br />

not speed limit<br />

Vanessa<br />

Mitchell<br />

downgrades,<br />

Vanessa<br />

Mitchell, said<br />

the consultation<br />

between NZTA and local residents’<br />

groups has been almost nonexistent.<br />

This had led to great<br />

frustration within the community.<br />

“I think the whole thing has been<br />

a cop-out from NZTA,” she said.<br />

“I think they have been ignoring<br />

our community. They have refused<br />

to meet our community groups to<br />

consult on the plans.”<br />

“The consultations they did<br />

organise were so poorly advertised<br />

that hardly anyone knew it was on,<br />

and then they cancelled another<br />

one at the last minute when they<br />

learned of the feelings in the<br />

community and how many were<br />

planning to attend.”<br />

Mitchell said her post on<br />

the matter to the community’s<br />

Facebook group had more than 400<br />

comments, 95 per cent of which<br />

were against speed reductions and<br />

pro speed limit enforcement and<br />

roading upgrades.<br />

“The state of the road and any<br />

maintenance of it has deteriorated<br />

completely,” she said.<br />

“We’ve also asked for stronger<br />

police enforcement of the current<br />

speed limits but were told we are<br />

too remote to have regular patrols<br />

and our poor lack of mobile phone<br />

coverage means our roads can’t<br />

have cameras.”<br />

Mitchell said the community<br />

would be willing to accept a<br />

90km/h limit but anything lower<br />

would be dangerous.<br />

“A 60-80km/h limit would just<br />

cause driver boredom and distraction,<br />

which is going to cause a lot<br />

more accidents.”<br />

NZTA spokesperson Frances<br />

Adank said road users’ safety was<br />

paramount in the agency’s changes<br />

and a few minutes added to a<br />

journey could be an acceptable<br />

price to pay for the saving of life<br />

and limbs.<br />

“Reductions in speed can make<br />

the difference between walking<br />

away from a crash or being<br />

stretchered away,” she said.<br />

There was a similar controversy<br />

in late 2020 when speed reductions<br />

were proposed on SH6 between<br />

Nelson and Blenheim.<br />

The initial proposal was to<br />

drop the <strong>10</strong>0km/h limit down to<br />

80km/h, but after consultation<br />

and mitigation with the<br />

NZTA and motorists, it was<br />

decided that variable speed<br />

restrictions of between 60km/h<br />

and 90km/h would be put in. Early<br />

results indicate a significant drop<br />

in the number of crashes on the<br />

highway in the first four months<br />

of the reductions being imposed.<br />

Figures obtained from NZTA show<br />

there were 28 crashes for the period<br />

December – March 2019/20,<br />

compared to 13 during the same<br />

period in 2020/21, a reduction of<br />

more than 50 per cent.<br />

Rapaki <strong>Bay</strong> gets trial<br />

swim, paddle craft area<br />

A NEW swimming and paddle<br />

craft area has been established<br />

and is now open in Rāpaki<br />

<strong>Bay</strong>, Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong>, for a<br />

<strong>10</strong>-month trial period.<br />

The area from the eastern side<br />

of the boat ramp, adjacent to<br />

Rāpaki wharf and directly across<br />

to the eastern headland, has<br />

been reserved for swimming and<br />

paddle craft only.<br />

Paddle craft include kayaks,<br />

stand up paddle boards, canoes<br />

and waka ama.<br />

Gary Manch, deputy harbourmaster<br />

(operational), says he’s<br />

excited for Rāpaki to have a safer<br />

area dedicated for swimming<br />

and paddle users.<br />

“This area was established after<br />

discussions with the local community<br />

board and Te Hapū o<br />

Ngāti Wheke, and a desire from<br />

the community to have an area<br />

for safer recreational boating.<br />

“We will trial the area for <strong>10</strong><br />

months before a decision is made<br />

as to whether it will become<br />

permanent.”<br />

Even though the area is<br />

permitted for swimmers<br />

and paddle craft users,<br />

Manch wants people to<br />

Yacht club celebrates centenary<br />

ONE HUNDRED years of<br />

yacht racing at Lyttelton will be<br />

celebrated at the Naval Point<br />

Club this weekend.<br />

Naval Point was formed in<br />

2001, but its predecessor club,<br />

Canterbury Yacht & Motor Boat<br />

Club, was established in 1921.<br />

Research by club historian<br />

Wayne Nolan has shown an<br />

earlier Canterbury Yacht Club<br />

operated at Lyttelton from 1886<br />

until World War 1, and many<br />

of its members were foundation<br />

members of the new club in 1921.<br />

The primary reason for<br />

CYMBC’s establishment was to<br />

enable Canterbury to challenge<br />

for the new interprovincial Sanders<br />

Cup, which quickly became<br />

one of New Zealand’s major annual<br />

sports events and remained<br />

so until into the 1950s.<br />

The most cherished achievement<br />

by a club member came<br />

when Peter Mander and Jack<br />

Cropp won the Sharpie class gold<br />

medal at the 1956 Melbourne<br />

Olympic games – opening the<br />

door for all the international successes<br />

New Zealand has enjoyed<br />

in sailing in subsequent decades.<br />

The Melbourne games were<br />

the first at which New Zealand<br />

was represented in yachting, and<br />

Mander had almost as difficult a<br />

job to beat his brother Graham<br />

in the New Zealand trials as he<br />

did to win the gold medal. The<br />

gold medal was claimed sensationally<br />

when Australia pipped<br />

Mander and Cropp for second<br />

place in the last race to seemingly<br />

clinch the medal.<br />

However, France successfully<br />

protested against Aussie skipper<br />

Rolly Tasker over a collision<br />

during the race, the Aussies were<br />

disqualified, and New Zealand<br />

won the gold on a countback.<br />

Peter Mander also won world<br />

18-footer titles in 1952 and<br />

1954, and other CYMBC sailors<br />

notably Peter Lester, Matthew<br />

Stechmann, Shelley Hesson,<br />

and Andrew May have also won<br />

world titles.<br />

Lester and Stechmann both<br />

won world championships in the<br />

popular and highly competitive<br />

OK dinghy class and Lester was<br />

also in Admiral’s Cup and One<br />

Ton Cup winning teams.<br />

Both were Lyttelton boys, and<br />

the club has always had a close<br />

relationship with the Lyttelton<br />

community which continued<br />

even after the opening of the<br />

road tunnel in 1964 brought<br />

much more ‘townie’ involvement<br />

with the club.<br />

SAILING<br />

HISTORY:<br />

The Naval<br />

Point Yacht<br />

Club in<br />

Lyttelton,<br />

home of<br />

several<br />

of New<br />

Zealand’s<br />

leading<br />

sailors, is<br />

gearing<br />

up for its<br />

centenary<br />

celebrations.<br />

It is doubtful if any New Zealand<br />

sailing club has produced<br />

more national championship<br />

winners than CYMBC/Naval<br />

Point, with George Brasell and<br />

Eliott Sinclair in the pre-war<br />

Sanders Cup era, Peter and<br />

Graham Mander in a variety of<br />

classes, and a long list of winners<br />

in many different classes since<br />

those days.<br />

The club has had a particularly<br />

close association with the R class,<br />

and yachties like the Manders,<br />

Steve and Paul Macintosh, Sean<br />

Milner, Dan Leech, Paul Roe and<br />

Malcolm Snowdon have ensured<br />

the national Leander Trophy has<br />

been a Canterbury monopoly for<br />

much of its 70-year history.<br />

The club has always had a tenaciously<br />

loyal membership, and<br />

there are at least 12 families who<br />

have sailed at the club through<br />

three generations, including<br />

the Sinclairs, who were so well<br />

represented that the club ran an<br />

annual Sinclair family race in<br />

the 1950s. This is being revived<br />

by today’s family members, and<br />

seven Sinclairs will compete in<br />

Young 88 keelers when centenary<br />

events are sailed on Friday.<br />

Quite a number of members<br />

have been active sailors at<br />

the club for five and even six<br />

decades, with the standout<br />

probably being Sumner yachtie<br />

Tony Park, who has been sailing<br />

at the club since 1961 and<br />

competing in the physically<br />

demanding R class since 1975.<br />

He adopted to the the new<br />

technology of foils in the class<br />

and in 2017 the flying pensioner<br />

scored a popular victory in the<br />

Leander Trophy, sailing with<br />

Steve Macintosh.<br />

• A centenary history<br />

of the club, Sailing in<br />

a Volcano, has been<br />

compiled by Nick Tolerton,<br />

Wayne Nolan, and Mandy<br />

and Grant Nelson, and is<br />

being launched on Friday.<br />

New incarnation for Lyttelton cookbook<br />

• By John Cosgrove<br />

COOKBOOKS, like flavours<br />

and tastes, come and go with the<br />

times.<br />

They are seen either as celebrations<br />

of a chef’s creative skill<br />

in the kitchen or as a fundraiser<br />

for hundreds of schools or community<br />

organisations around the<br />

country.<br />

For Lyttelton, there has only<br />

been one cookbook of note and<br />

12 years ago it started its long life<br />

in the small coastal community,<br />

a lifespan that saw three reprints<br />

due to its high demand both here<br />

and overseas.<br />

Now there is another helping<br />

of <strong>Harbour</strong> Kitchens, celebrating<br />

Lyttelton, its food and people.<br />

A year and a half ago a small<br />

group of Lyttelton artisans and<br />

school mums got together to<br />

look for an alternative to their<br />

annual Peninsula art auction, on<br />

hold due to Covid restrictions.<br />

From that meeting came the<br />

idea to publish a second version<br />

of the popular book.<br />

Editor Gaynor Stanley said she<br />

knew of the book, it had been<br />

sent to her years ago as a gift<br />

earlier when she was working in<br />

Sydney.<br />

“We wanted to recreate its<br />

unique style and keep its winning<br />

formula showcasing the<br />

essence of the community here<br />

TASTE: Parent and member of the Lyttelton Primary School board of trustees Eve Poff<br />

likes the shredded beef tacos recipe offered by Brent O’Meagher.<br />

PHOTOS: JOHN COSGROVE<br />

in Lyttelton,” she said.<br />

“We kept the format of the<br />

original but added in more seasons<br />

– party and lockdown, then<br />

came the huge job of compiling<br />

it all.”<br />

Stanley said they had a tough<br />

job initially finding the recipes.<br />

“First up it was a famine then<br />

a feast as the community got<br />

behind the project,” she said,<br />

“We eventually short-listed<br />

them down from hundreds of<br />

submission to about 150 and<br />

then started the long process of<br />

taste testing, photographing and<br />

laying out the book.”<br />

Creative director Kim Hickford<br />

worked on the original book<br />

and said it’s more than a cook<br />

book.<br />

“This book is the port on a<br />

plate, and it represents living in<br />

this vibrant community we have<br />

Kim<br />

Hickford<br />

here,” she said.<br />

“There were<br />

many thousands of<br />

hours of work undertaken<br />

by many,<br />

many kind and<br />

helpful volunteers<br />

who gave their<br />

time and talents to<br />

make this a special view of the<br />

community that is Lyttelton.”<br />

The entire project was a fundraiser<br />

for the Lyttelton Primary<br />

school.<br />

At the launch on Monday<br />

evening in Lyttelton, the school<br />

principal Brandan Wright<br />

said the project was very good<br />

example of a community pulling<br />

together.<br />

“I’m staggered at what the<br />

community here can achieve.”<br />

“In today’s world, schools are<br />

always challenged to find extra<br />

funds to support our children<br />

learning and this book will help<br />

us enhance the outdoor learning<br />

space at the school,” he said.<br />

Young delegates have a say on their future<br />

• By John Cosgrove<br />

THE NEXT generation of<br />

influencers, environmentalists,<br />

and community leaders got to<br />

voice their concerns about the<br />

future at a special session held at<br />

the city council last week.<br />

Twenty-four children, aged<br />

from <strong>10</strong> to 15 years and from<br />

five schools, took the chairs<br />

inside the council chambers and<br />

presented their ideas on coastal<br />

hazards and climate change.<br />

The next generation<br />

conversation workshop focused<br />

on seeking answers from<br />

young people about what they<br />

wanted to see happen on issues<br />

associated with global warming<br />

and climate change, as these<br />

things directly affect their future.<br />

City council senior news and<br />

content editor Lois Cairns said<br />

the point of the exercise was for<br />

the young people to formulate<br />

a submission on the coastal<br />

adaptation framework.<br />

“They had done some prework,<br />

looking at the proposed<br />

guiding principles within the<br />

framework and identifying what<br />

they liked, what they would like<br />

to change, what was missing<br />

and the importance of children<br />

and young people’s voices in the<br />

conversation,” she said.<br />

Primary School, Governors <strong>Bay</strong><br />

School, Banks Ave School and<br />

Chisnallwood Intermediate<br />

formed into groups and then,<br />

in chambers, presented their<br />

arguments which the students all<br />

voted on.<br />

The Lyttelton Primary School<br />

group posed the question that<br />

“they may invite us, they may<br />

listen to us, but it will depend on<br />

if they really hear us”.<br />

In front of city councillor and<br />

Sustainability and Community<br />

Resilience Committee<br />

chairwoman Sara Templeton,<br />

ECan councillor Vicky<br />

Southworth and Future Curious<br />

representative Sian Carvell,<br />

the young respondents hotly<br />

debated what their future could<br />

look like.<br />

Keegan Verster, 13, typified the<br />

depth the dedicated year 9 class<br />

at Chisnallwood Intermediate<br />

possessed when he spoke<br />

passionately to the audience<br />

about his feelings for the future.<br />

“It was an amazing experience,<br />

we all have a capability of being<br />

heard and I think we will be<br />

heard,” Keagan said.<br />

His group’s presentation was<br />

about changing the education of<br />

youth to affect change for their<br />

future.<br />

“It’s very important that we all<br />

should be learning about what’s<br />

happening today. How are we<br />

going to stop it if we don’t know<br />

anything about it,” Keegan said.<br />

His class studies the changing<br />

environment and was well<br />

represented at the session,<br />

supplying four of the eight<br />

speakers.<br />

Classmate Sarita Kotze, 13,<br />

found it a huge opportunity, and<br />

said the highlight was speaking<br />

in front of the assembled group.<br />

She hopes it will help her spread<br />

information and influence<br />

change.<br />

Said Sarita: “The facts<br />

shouldn’t be sugar-coated when<br />

discussing climate change.”<br />

Chisnallwood pupil Rosie Paul,<br />

13, said she got so much from the<br />

meeting.<br />

“It was absolutely amazing as<br />

I got to hear the student voice,”<br />

she said.<br />

Teacher Jude Robinson said<br />

the Chisnallwood Intermediate<br />

class were very passionate.<br />

“There are 32 kids in the<br />

class and their passion and<br />

ability to understand the key<br />

issues about climate change is<br />

amazing. As teachers we want to<br />

challenge them, to get them to<br />

take it further and this session<br />

here today is a result of that,”<br />

Robinson said.<br />

The submission the pupils<br />

created will now be considered<br />

along with other submissions the<br />

city council will receive before it<br />

makes a final decision in the<br />

new year.<br />

Treasures from the past:<br />

Bringing water to Te Waipapa<br />

DIAMOND HARBOUR was<br />

inaugurated as a suburb of<br />

Lyttelton by the purchase of<br />

140ha from the Stoddart Estate<br />

by the Lyttelton Borough Council<br />

in 1913.<br />

By 1926 the village had grown<br />

to 38 houses mostly owned by<br />

professional folk who commuted<br />

to work via the steam launch<br />

to Lyttelton and the train to<br />

Christchurch.<br />

The further development of<br />

this lovely and rather sunny<br />

aspect of Whakaraupō was,<br />

however, slowed by a lack of<br />

secure water supplies. And it was<br />

this lack that led to the setting<br />

up of the Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

Burgesses Association in 1931<br />

which embarked on their various<br />

fruitless campaigns in the<br />

1930s-40s to obtain water security<br />

for the growing settlement.<br />

A half century beforehand,<br />

Lyttelton itself had also<br />

experienced water shortages<br />

until the Lyttelton Waterworks<br />

Act of 1878 allowed the Lyttelton<br />

Borough Council to pipe water<br />

through the rail tunnel from the<br />

Heathcote Reservoir.<br />

While this water was rather<br />

hard, with high chlorine levels<br />

due to sea water incursion, it<br />

Left: A water pipe being laid to Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> and the sea-bed pipeline to Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> being laid from Lyttelton<br />

in 1954 (right).<br />

was nevertheless drinkable<br />

and certainly allowed for an<br />

expansion of town building<br />

activity in the port. And it was<br />

this precious resource that<br />

would also lead to the relief of<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> … after some<br />

decades and no small degree of<br />

persuasion.<br />

By the 1950s the water problem<br />

in Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> had grown<br />

so acute that the village Burgesses<br />

threatened to secede from the<br />

Lyttelton Borough Council and<br />

join the Mount Herbert County<br />

for their respite.<br />

Finally spurred into action, the<br />

Lyttelton Councillors approved<br />

the construction of an undersea<br />

pipeline that was laid in 1954<br />

from Lyttelton across the harbour<br />

to a reservoir above the village,<br />

fed by gravity from the Lyttelton<br />

reservoirs.<br />

It then came to be, that the<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> Water Mains<br />

was opened to the public on April<br />

2, 1955.<br />

While damaged in the 1960<br />

tsunami when a Chilean<br />

earthquake caused water levels<br />

in the harbour to fall and surge<br />

by 5m, the pipeline continued to<br />

supply fine Port Hills bore water<br />

for several decades until being<br />

replaced in the late 1990s. And<br />

with it, the village of Te Waipapa<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> has grown<br />

from 220 houses in 1962, into the<br />

fine suburban settlement of 1600<br />

good people that we know and<br />

love today.<br />

Gone Bush<br />

by Paul Kilgour<br />

The story of a wanderer, long-distance tramper and hutbagging<br />

legend.<br />

Paul Kilgour was bitten by the tramping bug early. He began<br />

going on epic trips as a young boy, beyond the farm and<br />

along the coast. During these wanderings, he met old folk<br />

living simply in tiny huts out the back of farms and on clifftops,<br />

and swaggers walking in remote and beautiful locations. Even at<br />

that early age, deep inside Paul stirred the spirit of adventure and a<br />

longing to go further. And further he went.<br />

Gone Bush is about a lifetime of walking the backcountry. It tells stories of the<br />

eccentric characters he met along the way, some of the 1200 huts he’s visited,<br />

and his most unforgettable journeys, including his ‘long walk home’ from deepest<br />

Fiordland to the top of Golden <strong>Bay</strong>. It’s also a book about the powerful effects of<br />

being in the natural environment, doing what matters and living authentically. It is a<br />

charming, meandering, transportive read - like setting off on a serene tramp in the<br />

mountains, a heavy frost underfoot and the sun on your back.<br />

The Last Checkmate<br />

A Novel by Gabriella Saab<br />

Readers of Heather Morris’s The Tattooist of Auschwitz and watchers of The<br />

Queen’s Gambit won’t want to miss this amazing debut set during World War II.<br />

A young Polish resistance worker, imprisoned in Auschwitz as a political prisoner,<br />

plays chess in exchange for her life, and in doing so fights to bring the man<br />

who destroyed her family to justice. Maria Florkowska is many things: daughter,<br />

avid chess player, and, as a member of the Polish underground resistance in<br />

Nazi-occupied Warsaw, a young woman brave beyond her years. Captured by<br />

the Gestapo, she is imprisoned in Auschwitz, but while her family is sent to their<br />

deaths, she is spared. Realizing her ability to play chess, the sadistic camp deputy,<br />

Karl Fritzsch, decides to use her as a chess opponent to entertain the camp guards.<br />

However, once he tires of exploiting her skills, he has every intention of killing her.<br />

Befriended by a Catholic priest, Maria attempts to overcome her grief, vows to<br />

avenge the murder of her family, and plays for her life. For four grueling years,<br />

her strategy is simple: Live. Fight. Survive. By cleverly provoking Fritzsch’s volatile<br />

nature in front of his superiors, Maria intends to orchestrate his downfall. Only then<br />

will she have a chance to evade the fate awaiting her and see him punished for his<br />

wickedness. As she carries out her plan and the war nears its end, she challenges<br />

her former nemesis to one final game, certain to end in life or death, in failure or<br />

justice. If Maria can bear to face Fritzsch—and her past—one last time.<br />

Wednesday <strong>November</strong> <strong>10</strong> <strong>2021</strong> <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News 21<br />

Jolion will add to Haval’s success<br />

NOT SURPRISINGLY, I skim<br />

the monthly sales figures that are<br />

sent to the motor vehicle industry<br />

distributors and commentators. It’s<br />

easy to work out the shakers and<br />

movers as the year progresses.<br />

At present it’s a matter of which<br />

company has supply as to how they<br />

are faring in the marketplace. I can<br />

report that the brands from China<br />

are doing well, both Haval and<br />

MG have constant supply and, of<br />

course, with the way these brands<br />

are placed in terms of price they are<br />

favourable buys for those who are<br />

looking for a bargain, those who<br />

want to buy new and are comfortable<br />

knowing they get a lengthy<br />

warranty with their purchase.<br />

The latest product from China to<br />

come my way was Haval’s Jolion,<br />

a very pretty mid-size sport utility<br />

vehicle that can only go upwards<br />

in terms of sales, and where it<br />

peaks is anyone’s guess. You see,<br />

it is not only nicely built, but it is<br />

priced well for the budget-conscious<br />

buyer. The Jolion lists from<br />

$26,990, which by my reckoning<br />

is a bargain, it is traditional in<br />

the way it is powered, it has a<br />

1.5-litre four-cylinder engine that<br />

drives through to the front wheels<br />

through a seven-speed dual clutch<br />

automatic transmission.<br />

I mentioned that it is mid-size,<br />

yet it seems bigger than its 4.4m<br />

length would suggest. It’s massively<br />

comfortable on the inside and<br />

space is generous for the times<br />

when five occupants are taken onboard.<br />

The test car was the Lux model<br />

which sits at $27,990 but had been<br />

upspeced, it carried a blackout<br />

package that includes a window<br />

tint, black grill, side trim and<br />

badges, along with 19in black<br />

wheels. The price for those would<br />

add an extra $5k that takes it to the<br />

price of the Ultra model that sits at<br />

$32,990.<br />

So there are three Jolion models,<br />

each represents value that I’ve mentioned,<br />

and it’s a range that comes<br />

in six vivid colours, so the choice is<br />

very comprehensive.<br />

Even though the Lux model sits<br />

in the middle pricewise it comes<br />

with healthy specification. It gets<br />

full leather trim with heated front<br />

seats that are also electrically<br />

adjustable, there is keyless entry<br />

and ignition, a 360deg camera<br />

system, radar cruise control and<br />

paddle-shift gear selectors. Items<br />

it doesn’t get that surprised me are<br />

the lack of fuel usage indicator and<br />

reach-adjustable steering column;<br />

nevertheless, for everything else<br />

you get they can be forgiven.<br />

The in-cabin area is high-class, it<br />

is clean and aesthetically appealing.<br />

There is a high emphasis on digitalised<br />

graphics, the dash panel screen<br />

sweeps across the facia and another<br />

central screen has touch operation<br />

that control the minor functions.<br />

STYLISH: Haval’s Jolion comes in three levels of<br />

specification, each has a high level of fitment.<br />

HAVAL JOLION LUX: Optional black wheels help provide an aggressive stance.<br />

I particularly like the dial gear selector,<br />

it is intuitive and you quickly<br />

become one with the car. The trim<br />

materials are high grade and fit and<br />

finish are as good as I’ve seen on<br />

any car at this price.<br />

It’s also fair to say the Jolion<br />

travels quietly, the evaluation car<br />

was rattle-free and smooth through<br />

the air.<br />

Under the bonnet sits the<br />

turbocharged, 1497cc engine. It’s<br />

pretty much a carryover from the<br />

H2 that also sold well in the Kiwi<br />

market. Drive through the dual<br />

clutch gearbox is unimpeded, the<br />

engine is feisty when asked but also<br />

relaxed for the inner-city commute.<br />

In stop-start traffic it gently works<br />

through the transmission, and if<br />

you need a quick lane change the<br />

turbocharger will spool quickly<br />

and provide the impetus needed to<br />

make that manoeuvre.<br />

In terms of acceleration the Jolion<br />

will make <strong>10</strong>0km/h from a standstill<br />

in <strong>10</strong>sec and will tackle a highway<br />

overtake (80-120km/h) in an easy<br />

7sec, the latter thanks to a broad<br />

spread of torque. The engine is rated<br />

with 220Nm available all of the<br />

way from 2000rpm to 4400rpm, if<br />

you add in 1<strong>10</strong>kW of power at just<br />

5600rpm you have a free-revving<br />

engine that also works hard at the<br />

bottom end, and that is what you<br />

need, boost from low down is the<br />

most important ingredient with this<br />

type of engine design.<br />

• Price – Haval Jolion Lux,<br />

$27,990<br />

• Dimensions – Length,<br />

4472mm; width, 1841mm;<br />

height, 1574mm<br />

• Configuration – Fourcylinder,<br />

front-wheeldrive,<br />

1497cc, 1<strong>10</strong>kW,<br />

220Nm, seven-speed<br />

automatic<br />

• Performance –<br />

0-<strong>10</strong>0km/h, <strong>10</strong>sec<br />

• Fuel usage – 8.1/<strong>10</strong>0km<br />

Just as importantly, the Jolion<br />

also has an economical fuel use<br />

claim. Haval rate it with an 8.1-litre<br />

per <strong>10</strong>0km combined cycle average.<br />

I delved deep into the display menus<br />

but I couldn’t find any fuel consumption<br />

readouts, so I was unable<br />

to collate any figures to quantify<br />

Haval’s figure. However, the engine<br />

is quite relaxed at <strong>10</strong>0km/h, turning<br />

over freely at 1900rpm.<br />

I took the Jolion west trough to<br />

the Waimakarikri Gorge bridge<br />

and back to my home in the suburbs<br />

through Hororata and Burnham.<br />

It is an adept highway cruiser<br />

that enhances driver comfort and<br />

has smooth highway manners.<br />

It also equips itself well in a<br />

corner. The optional wheels also<br />

play their part, the big 19in tyres<br />

are informative and steer directly<br />

into a corner. Feedback of how<br />

they are relating to the road<br />

surface is encouraging, the Jolion<br />

is directional and balanced. That<br />

is something manufacturers often<br />

find hard to conquer in an SUV. By<br />

sheer nature of their height they<br />

often lean awkwardly in a corner,<br />

I’m pleased to report the Jolion<br />

feels stable even when forced into a<br />

bend quickly.<br />

It is this controlled behaviour<br />

that will lure buyers into the Jolion.<br />

For one it is the quintessential<br />

family wagon that pleases with its<br />

style and fresh design. In terms of<br />

driveability it exudes confidence<br />

and ability, yet it does everything<br />

with a relaxed demeanour.<br />

For me, I’d be an entry level<br />

buyer. Sure, you only get cloth<br />

trim and miss out on a few other<br />

goodies, but I’m not sold on leather<br />

anyway. Buyers who want Haval are<br />

looking at the budget carefully and<br />

the Jolion has variants to suit those<br />

who are stretched as well as those<br />

who have a few bob extra to spend<br />

on the niceties such as the blackout<br />

add-ons and the luxury items at the<br />

top end of the range.<br />

Haval is going places in our<br />

market and don’t expect anything<br />

to change soon, as the SUV<br />

division of Great Wall Motors,<br />

the brand has substantial backing<br />

and it’s good cars like the Jolion<br />

that will continue both companies<br />

momentum here in New Zealand<br />

and globally.<br />

The Good Life Found<br />

<strong>10</strong> Ford Road, Opawa<br />

4 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 2 car garaging<br />

Sitting back from the road, amongst leafy and established gardens, this is a property that values its<br />

proximity to the river, connects with nature, and offers a peaceful haven to retreat to, all without breaking<br />

the bank. Opawa has a real sense of family and community with its own library, farmer’s market, various<br />

high decile schools and a selection of eclectic shops, supermarket nearby.<br />

• Remodeled 4 bedroom family home plus studio.<br />

• Generous back yard area perfect for kids.<br />

• Established native garden with flourishing fruit trees.<br />

• Large double garage and plenty of off-street parking.<br />

• Now surplus to requirements so must be sold on or before auction day.<br />

Prime RMD Zoning! ‘As is, Where is’<br />

15 Russell Street, Linwood<br />

What a location for redevelopment. Situated directly opposite Eastgate mall<br />

it doesn’t get more convenient than this. A 5 bedroom, ‘as is where is’.<br />

Currently tenanted on fixed term tenancy until June 2022 (rent $420 pw),<br />

allowing time to get plans approved with the help of a holding income. Tenants<br />

wish to stay longer if given the opportunity - they know how lucky they are<br />

living in such a convenient location. Hold and watch this prime Residential<br />

Medium Density zoned site become more precious over time or get those plans<br />

ready and realise this property’s full potential as soon as possible.<br />

This is an outstanding opportunity, too good to miss! Do not delay.<br />
