Selected streets would have<br />
speed limits reduced from<br />
50km/h to 40km/h under the<br />
proposals.<br />
Residents of those areas are<br />
being encouraged to share their<br />

neighbourhoods.”<br />

Margaret Mahy’s former home<br />
expected to change hands today<br />
NEWS 3<br />
THE FORMER family home<br />
of Margaret Mahy, the prolific<br />
author of books for children and<br />
young adults, is set to change<br />
hands today.<br />
Mahy, who died in 2012 aged<br />
76, had lived in the three-bedroom<br />
house in Governors <strong>Bay</strong><br />
since 1968, where she raised<br />
her two daughters, Penny and<br />
Bridget.<br />
The property at 23 Merlincote<br />
Cres was originally listed for sale<br />
in May but failed to sell after a<br />
community-based bid to purchase<br />
it proved unsuccessful.<br />
It was relisted by Min Sarginson<br />
Real Estate with a deadline<br />
sale to be completed by 5pm.<br />
“There’s been a great amount<br />
of interest. The first open home<br />
had close to 70 people and it’s<br />
been steady ever since,” said Min<br />
Sarginson real estate agent Kate<br />
Hitchings.<br />
Originally designed as a<br />
colonial cottage with modernist<br />
elements, a larger wing was added<br />
in the 1970s.<br />
It features three or four<br />
bedrooms, depending on configuration,<br />
and sits on a 758 sq m<br />
section overlooking the bay.<br />
The property’s latest<br />
rateable valuation was $640,000<br />
on August 1, 2019.<br />
In keeping with Mahy’s passion<br />
for books, the house has a<br />
number of in-built bookshelves.<br />
She owned hundreds of books<br />
that were stacked along 170<br />
lineal metres of shelving.<br />
“It’s probably a little bit excessive<br />
for most families these<br />
days but when we grew up in the<br />
house basically every wall was<br />
covered in books,” said Mahy’s<br />
eldest daughter Penny.<br />
COLONIAL:<br />
In-built<br />
bookshelves<br />
are a feature<br />
of the<br />
Governors<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> home<br />
formerly<br />
owned by<br />
Margaret<br />
Mahy (inset).<br />
Bin vandalised<br />
ONE OF the recently-installed<br />
smart bins at Sumner Beach<br />
has been ripped out from its<br />
mountings and pushed over.<br />
The city council replaced hundreds<br />
of old rubbish bins across<br />
Christchurch and Banks Peninsula<br />
with ‘smart bins’.<br />
Smart bins have a larger capacity<br />
and sensor technology which<br />
provides the city council’s maintenance<br />
contractor with daily data<br />
on how full each bin is.<br />
“It is so incredibly<br />
disappointing to see such<br />
mindless vandalism occurring for<br />
absolutely no reason. At the end<br />
of the day it’s the ratepayers who<br />
pays the price for this stupidity,”<br />

Teaching kids the ‘bread and butter’ of<br />
• By Kristie Boland<br />
BRENDAN NOLAN was<br />
watching his 5-year-old son<br />
reading last year when he had a<br />
realisation: Wouldn’t it be good if<br />
more kids this age were reading<br />
instead of playing PlayStation?<br />
So he created the coaching<br />
programme ‘Bread and Butter’,<br />
which he’s now looking to expand<br />
into other rugby and sports<br />
clubs in Canterbury.<br />
‘Bread and Butter’ uses sport<br />
and the B.R.E.A.D book to<br />
encourage kids to read, connect,<br />
and learn the basic principles<br />
of being a good person. The<br />
B.R.E.A.D book stands for: Balls<br />
Books; Read; Enjoy; Achieve;<br />
Dreams.<br />
Nolan, who works for the Lyttelton<br />
Port Company, coaches the<br />
under-6 Christchurch rugby team<br />
‘C Pups’.<br />
What began as having the<br />
team read for 15 minutes before<br />
training morphed into a new<br />
way of coaching, connecting and<br />
teaching kids some important life<br />
lessons.<br />
With Bread and Butter, Nolan<br />
endeavours to go beyond just<br />
coaching rugby skills. It’s about<br />
teaching kids the foundations of<br />
being a good person – the ‘bread<br />
and butter’ of life.<br />
The C Pups, who all attend<br />
Heathcote Valley School, spend<br />
15 minutes before training<br />
reading a book of their choice<br />
with their parents and<br />
caregivers.<br />
After every game, the player<br />
of the day is presented with the<br />
B.R.E.A.D book, which they can<br />
take home and write a story in it<br />
about their experiences of rugby<br />
so far. They present it to the team<br />
the following week and then pass<br />
the book onto the next player of<br />
the day.<br />
“It’s something that keeps them<br />
involved longer than say just half<br />
an hour after the game, something<br />
to be proud of,” Nolan,<br />
who played professional rugby in<br />
England, said.<br />
Bread and Butter is not just for<br />
rugby.<br />
“It’s just the principles of being<br />
good people. In rugby, they say<br />
good people make good rugby<br />
AVID: The C Pups under-6<br />
team reading the B.R.E.A.D<br />
book together, and their<br />
coach Brendan Nolan.<br />
Nolan also coaches the<br />
Christchurch seniors, the<br />
seniors sevens and Waitaha<br />
Matua, the Canterbury<br />
Maori men’s team.<br />
players. But don’t wait until<br />
they’re 20, why don’t we start<br />
putting this to the kids when<br />
they’re young.”<br />
“If they get their bread and<br />
butter right, they can go from<br />
there. It’s giving them the<br />
opportunity from a young age.”<br />

life by combining rugby with reading<br />
THE C PUPS: Charlie St John (left), Mason Boyd, Odin Hanekom, Hoani<br />
Nolan, Leo Anderson and Edward Hanekom. Before training sessions, both<br />
children and parents spend 15 minutes reading.<br />
The programme isn’t just<br />
for the kids – it also connects<br />
parents and caregivers.<br />
Jenna Timoti’s six year-old<br />
son Mason Boyd has played two<br />
seasons for the C Pups. Timoti<br />
said Mason is a very capable<br />
reader, but getting him to read<br />
was a chore. Bread and Butter<br />
helped Mason see reading as<br />
something that’s just part of<br />
training.<br />
Timoti said she has seen a<br />
difference in her son’s behaviour<br />
since he has been coached by<br />
Nolan.<br />
“Mason is someone who is<br />
easily distracted and needs<br />
structure. I can see a difference<br />
in his confidence, he’s so<br />
determined and the values he<br />
has learned have made him<br />
more empathetic. He’s a lot more<br />
caring,” she said.<br />
Similarly, Heathcote Valley<br />
School principal Bruce Ellison<br />
said he has seen a change in<br />
the kids since they have been<br />
coached by Nolan.<br />
“I’ve seen them grow as<br />
people and I’ve seen their<br />
relationships with each other<br />
grow,” said Ellison.<br />
“It’s a no brainer, why haven’t<br />
we been doing something like<br />
this all along?”<br />
Nolan said a programme like<br />
this would have made him look<br />
at rugby differently.<br />
“When I was playing, it was<br />
just about showing up and<br />
playing the game, but I think this<br />
is more of a deeper connection.”<br />
Nolan wants that connection<br />
to be fostered.<br />
“It teaches kids to care for the<br />
area, the grounds, care for the<br />
opposition and each other. It’s<br />
contagious and its something<br />
that needs to be nurtured,” he<br />
said.<br />
Nolan wants to break down<br />
the club versus club mentality,<br />
and connect coaches as well.<br />
Mainland Football interim<br />
chief executive Martin Dodgson<br />
loves the idea of Bread and<br />
Butter and believes most sports<br />
face the same challenges.<br />
“We love the concept and the<br />
story behind it . . . The concept of<br />
giving kids ownership over what<br />
they do,” he said.<br />
Dodgson thinks Bread and<br />
Butter captures the essence of<br />
sport.<br />
“Sport teaches us lessons and<br />
those lessons can be hidden<br />
deep but [Brendan] brings these<br />
lessons to the surface,” he said.<br />
“The scoreboard would suggest<br />
who the winner or loser is, but<br />
this teaches kids what a real<br />
‘winner’ is and what success<br />
looks like.”<br />
Nolan now hopes to take<br />
the coaching programme<br />
Canterbury-wide and has had<br />
positive feedback from clubs and<br />
other sports organisations.<br />

“While many road users in<br />

the current speed limit, implementing<br />
a lower limit will help<br />
those unfamiliar with the area to<br />
understand the safe and appropriate<br />
speed.”<br />
“Scarborough and Taylors<br />

Five artists combine for our new group exhibition ‘Sum of the Parts’<br />
<strong>November</strong> 27 - December 14; on show for a shorter duration to allow<br />
for all-important Christmas pickup opportunities.<br />
Contributing artists are Christchurch Kara Burrowes and local Little<br />
River sculptor Jane Downes. Jasmine Keir’s studio is in Kerikeri, just up<br />
the road from Dave Green in Rawene, and Debra Powell is from the<br />
rural Waikato hamlet of Te Pahu.<br />
Kara Burrowes is an artist and designer based in Christchurch. Her work<br />
is tactile and experimental. Using recycled wood from demolition sites, she loves<br />
the concept of transforming something quite ordinary into something precious and<br />
alluring. “Through reinterpretation I like to create a new language, often through the<br />
use of pattern and repetition, method and process.”<br />
Debra Powell’s alias in the pottery studio is ‘Little Betty’. Her ceramic work has<br />
strong narrative themes, exploring relationships between people and nature, playing<br />
with convention, and infusing the result with a gentle humour.<br />
Oxidized copper artist Jasmine Keir endeavours to create and understand the<br />
alchemy of colours achievable via her artistic process; one which uses a variety of<br />
natural ingredients to react with and manipulate the finish of her copper works.<br />
Dave Green creates whimsical arrangements; ‘Lightshifter’ sculptures. His art is about changing the form<br />
and shape of found, often discarded, objects - both natural and manmade. Reborn out of pre-loved glass<br />
and crystal, some are lighting devices others are designed to hang in the light.<br />
Sculptor Jane Downes’ delicate themes are fabricated in steel. ‘Arboresque’ a study of tree forms, an<br />
observation of nature’s sacred geometry.”<br />

Epic fundraising run for teenager Enzo<br />
• By Kristie Boland<br />
ANTHONY MARTIN’S 100km<br />
run in Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> took<br />
him more than 23 hours to<br />
complete, and at the end of it all<br />
he wanted was a cup of Irish tea.<br />
On Canterbury<br />
Anniversary<br />
Day,<br />
Anthony Martin<br />
ran 100km<br />
with a 3600m<br />
elevation to<br />
raise money<br />
for a Redcliffs<br />
Anthony<br />
Martin<br />
teenager who<br />
suffered a spinal<br />
injury in<br />
early 2020.<br />
Enzo Halliburton, now 18, was<br />
involved in a tragic swimming<br />
accident in Moncks <strong>Bay</strong> in<br />
January, 2020. While swimming<br />
with friends, Enzo dived into the<br />
water and did not resurface. He<br />
had seriously injured his spine<br />
and his friends had to perform<br />
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation<br />
and call for an ambulance.<br />
Enzo suffered a C5-C7 spinal<br />
injury and is now a tetraplegic.<br />
Martin has a work colleague<br />
whose son was with Enzo that<br />
day. After hearing Enzo’s story,<br />
ENDURANCE: Anthony Martin during his 100km run in Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong>.<br />
Martin decided he wanted to do<br />
something to help raise money<br />
to go towards a specialised bike<br />
for Enzo.<br />
This was the first ultra-marathon<br />
distance Martin had<br />
ran. During training, Martin<br />
had what he described as a<br />
“drawback” when he ruptured<br />
his hamstring in two places,<br />
tore the cartilage in his hip and<br />
had to get his Achilles tendon<br />
reattached.<br />
On the day of the run,<br />
Martin joined in on part of the<br />
Krayzie K’s ultra trail running<br />
event. The temperature that day<br />
was 27 deg C.<br />
“Being an Irish lad, I’m not<br />
built for heat,” said Martin.<br />
The 100km run took him 23hr<br />
38min. Thinking about Enzo<br />
and what he had gone through is<br />
what got Martin through those<br />
Enzo Halliburton<br />
last hours.<br />
“Even in the worst pain that<br />
I was in, it’s still a drop in the<br />
ocean of the reality of being<br />
tetraplegic,” he said.<br />
When he finally crossed the<br />
finish line at 8.25am on Saturday<br />
morning, there was one thing on<br />
Martin’s mind: “All I wanted was<br />
a cup of tea, there was no tea [at<br />
the finish line] so I drove to my<br />
mates and he had some Irish tea<br />
bags, it was perfect.”<br />

Takapūneke Reserve landscaping under way<br />
LANDSCAPING WORK is<br />
starting on a part of Banks<br />
Peninsula notable for a massacre<br />
in 1830. It is part of a two-stage<br />
plan to reinvigorate Takapūneke<br />
Reserve near Akaroa.<br />
Last year, the city council<br />
bought the Red House sited on<br />
the reserve for $2.5 million as<br />
part of its redevelopment plans,<br />
which it is jointly undertaking<br />
with Ōnuku Rūnanga.<br />
In 1830, the feared Ngai Toa<br />
chief Te Rauparaha, who was<br />
on a raiding journey from<br />
the North Island, arrived<br />
off the Takapūneke site. The<br />
Takapūneke rangatira (chief)<br />
was lured onto a British ship and<br />
killed by Te Rauparaha, who<br />
then slaughtered many at the<br />
once-thriving Ngāi Tahu commercial<br />
centre, after which the<br />
site became tapu (sacred).<br />
Takapūneke has been used as a<br />
rubbish dump and a wastewater<br />
treatment plant in the past.<br />
It achieved recognition of its<br />
significance in the history of the<br />
nation as a whole in 2002.<br />
Ōnuku was the first of the<br />
three locations in the South<br />
Island where The Treaty of<br />
Waitangi was signed – the others<br />
being Ōtakou and Ruapuke.<br />
Stage one of the redevelopment<br />
will be undertaken in two<br />
parts.<br />
The first part will involve<br />
terracing and the creation of<br />
a flat platform area for a pou<br />
(pillar), along with paths in<br />
the form of a takarangi, an<br />
intersecting double spiral. The<br />
pou is being designed and<br />
created by renowned Ngāi Tahu<br />
carver Fayne Robinson.<br />
Part one will be completed in<br />
time for a formal opening on 5<br />
February 2022, hosted by Ōnuku<br />
Rūnanga.<br />
Part two will see feature<br />
lighting installed for the pou<br />
along with planting, furniture<br />
DESIGN:<br />
The plan<br />
includes<br />
terracing<br />
and paths<br />
in the<br />
form of a<br />
takarangi<br />
or double<br />
spiral.<br />

NEWSLINE<br />
and palisade fencing, and an area<br />
for hand washing at the Stanley<br />
Place entrance.<br />
It is expected part two will be<br />
completed before the inaugural<br />
Matariki public holiday in June.<br />
Ōnuku Rūnanga chairman<br />
Riki Tainui said this is an<br />
important step forward in<br />
helping to tell the real story<br />
of Takapūneke.<br />
“This piece of land carries huge<br />
significance for our rūnanga. We<br />
want people to know its story<br />
and its history and provide a<br />
place for peaceful reflection,”<br />
Tainui said.<br />
Deputy Mayor and Banks<br />
Peninsula Councillor Andrew<br />
Turner welcomed news of work<br />
beginning.<br />
“Council and Ōnuku Rūnanga<br />
have worked closely to develop<br />
this landscape plan and we are<br />
all extremely pleased to have<br />
reached a stage where we can<br />
start to see the plan come to<br />
fruition,” Turner said.<br />
In 2002, the reserve was<br />
registered as wāhi tapu (a place<br />
of outstanding historical and<br />
cultural heritage values).

Xmas gifts wanted for needy<br />
THIS FESTIVE season,<br />
Ray White will continue its<br />
successful charity drive A Little<br />
Ray of Giving for the 10th year<br />
running.<br />
The campaign is a tradition<br />
for the brand, and serves as an<br />
opportunity for hundreds of<br />
local branches to connect with<br />
their communities while<br />
raising awareness and<br />
much-needed resources<br />
for worthy causes.<br />
As a charitable<br />
initiative, the campaign<br />
will see Ray White<br />
Ferrymead partner with<br />
Ronald McDonald House<br />
South Island to help<br />
people, families and groups who<br />
may need some extra support<br />
and care during the festive<br />
season.<br />
“This campaign has always<br />
been a real highlight of our year.<br />
It gives us a chance to reach out<br />
to the people around us directly<br />
in a way that benefits people<br />
with less advantages, and get<br />
them things they need during<br />
a demanding time of year,” Ray<br />
White Ferrymead principal<br />
Craig Prier said.<br />
The Ray White Ferrymead<br />
team is calling on people<br />
to show their generosity by<br />
sending their donations to the<br />
company for collection and safe<br />
storage.<br />
“Both <strong>2021</strong> and 2020 have<br />
been extremely difficult for<br />
everyone but no one’s felt the<br />
negatives more than those<br />
groups that were already<br />
vulnerable. Lots of people<br />
and families have even found<br />
themselves in a bad position<br />
because of the way things have<br />
gone recently. So this year’s A<br />
Little Ray of Giving is<br />
especially important to<br />
us, and it’s going to be a<br />
good way to let people<br />
in need of help know<br />
that their community<br />
supports them,” Prier<br />
said.<br />
Those who wish to<br />
donate a gift just need<br />
to inform the Ray White team<br />
if the gift is for a male or female<br />
and nominate an age group.<br />
Ray White Ferrymead, 21<br />
Humphreys Drive, Ferrymead,<br />
will have its special giving tree<br />
in the front window and will<br />
be collecting gifts until December<br />
5.<br />
The gifts are safely stored on<br />
the premises and are collected<br />
by Ronald McDonald House<br />
South Island. Ray White has run<br />
this initiative since 2012, and<br />
every year, offices from across<br />
Australia and New Zealand<br />
have collected thousands of gifts<br />
and donations for not-for-profit<br />
organisations and charities<br />
and uplifted hundreds of<br />
communities in the process.<br />

THE DIAMOND <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

December 6 after the installation<br />
of new floor coverings and an<br />
internal paint job.<br />
“This work is part of<br />
Christchurch City Libraries’ 10-<br />

and it completes the work we<br />
started last year when we redid<br />

area and upgraded<br />
the data<br />
and electrical<br />
wiring,” head<br />
of libraries and<br />

Carolyn Robertson<br />
said.<br />
“Because<br />
the period of<br />
Carolyn<br />
Robertson<br />
closure is relatively short, we do<br />
not envisage too much disruption<br />
to customers, so mobile library<br />
services will not be provided,”<br />
Robertson said.<br />
“The Wi-Fi will still stay<br />
switched on during the closure,<br />
but the library’s returns bins will<br />
be unable to accept returned<br />
items. You can drop items off at<br />
any other library in our network –<br />
the nearest alternative is Lyttelton<br />

requested by customers will be<br />
made available there too.’’<br />

been an increase in shellfish collecting<br />
along the McCormacks <strong>Bay</strong><br />
causeway in the estuary of the Avon<br />
and Heathcote. This has led to public<br />
concern about the potential decline<br />
and sustainability of cockles.<br />
Following discussions with the<br />
Ministry for Primary Industries and<br />
mana whenua, the Estuary Trust<br />
agreed to undertake an evaluation of<br />
the cockle throughout the estuary.<br />
Since the last evaluation in 2008/9<br />
there have been significant changes<br />
within the estuary. Firstly, the<br />
building of the ocean pipeline has<br />
removed a significant proportion of<br />
treated waste water from the estuary.<br />
This has resulted in a dramatic<br />
decrease in nutrient levels and an<br />
improvement in water quality.<br />
Secondly, there have been considerable<br />
changes as a result of seismic<br />
disturbances during the 2010/11<br />
earthquake sequences.<br />
There is potential for the shellfish<br />
resources to increase in the future.<br />
The findings from the survey will<br />
be used by mana whenua when<br />
applying for Mātaitai Reserve status<br />
for the estuary.<br />
This will allow mana whenua to<br />
create bylaws to minimise the risks<br />
of overfishing and better manage<br />
the aquatic resources.<br />
PUBLIC CONSULTATION proposed changes to speed limits<br />
SH73/75 Christchurch to Akaroa and SH74 Lyttelton<br />
In the last decade there were 739 crashes on the road between Christchurch and Akaroa*.<br />
Nine people were killed and 72 people suffered serious injuries, leaving families and<br />
communities grieving.<br />
Setting safer speeds on this high-risk corridor is essential if we are to turn the tide of deaths<br />
and serious injury. Because even the best drivers, on familiar roads, make mistakes - but these<br />
mistakes don’t need to cost lives.<br />
Consultation is now underway on proposed new safer speeds between Christchurch and<br />
Akaroa, some local side roads and in Lyttelton.<br />
Have your<br />
say by<br />
3 December<br />
<strong>2021</strong><br />
Head to www.nzta.govt.nz/chchtoakaroa to give feedback<br />
or email us at chchtoakaroaspeeds@nzta.govt.nz<br />
Formal consultation on new speed limit proposals is required under the Land Transport Rule: Setting of Speed Limits<br />
(2017). *Between 2011-2020, data from CAS.

Treasures from the past:<br />
The Great Fire of Lyttelton<br />
IN 1870, the catastrophic Great<br />
Fire of Lyttelton razed much<br />
of the town centre, in spite of<br />
the heroic efforts of the town’s<br />
‘hook and ladder’ brigade, gaol<br />
inmates and random seamen,<br />
who doused the Mitre Hotel<br />
with buckets of beer – all<br />
followed later with the arrival of<br />
the Christchurch Fire Brigade by<br />
train.<br />
Spurred on by the reputed<br />
£80,000 damage, the Lyttelton<br />
Borough Council’s Fire Brigade<br />
Committee established the<br />
Lyttelton Volunteer Fire Brigade<br />
just three years later in 1873,<br />
complete with excellent new £1<br />
uniforms and boots. However,<br />
it would be another 27 years<br />
before the brigade would find a<br />
permanent home.<br />
In 1901, the council decided<br />
to invest in a new fire station<br />
to house its modern steampowered<br />
engines, with plans<br />
commissioned by the prestigious<br />
Christchurch architects,<br />
Armson, Collins and Harman.<br />
The firm were responsible for<br />
notable colonial landmarks, such<br />
as the Union Bank on Hereford<br />
St, the Rhodes mansion ‘Te<br />
Koraha’ in Merivale and St<br />
Mary’s Anglican Church in<br />
Timaru. In 1887, it had also<br />
designed the Lyttelton Borough<br />
Council Chambers<br />
and Magistrates Court at 1<br />
Sumner Rd on the corner<br />
of Oxford St.<br />
The Lyttelton Fire Station<br />
was then built on the opposite<br />
corner at 2 Sumner Rd in a<br />
similar grand Italianate style to<br />
GRAND:<br />
Lyttelton Fire<br />
Station (plus<br />
library), April<br />
16, 1964. The<br />
library was in<br />
this building<br />
from 1902 to<br />
1978, while<br />
the lower<br />
level housed<br />
the fire<br />
station from<br />
1902 to 1967. <br />
complement the borough<br />
council chambers, with<br />
construction completed in 1902.<br />
After having resided for some<br />
35 years in the old Colonists Hall<br />
just up the street, Canterbury’s<br />
oldest library, the Lyttelton<br />
Library, moved into the new fire<br />
station building some months<br />
after the fire brigade, occupying<br />
the upper floors.<br />
For almost seven decades<br />
the fire station (plus library)<br />
building was a vibrant social<br />
centre for the town until, in<br />
1967, the Lyttelton Volunteer<br />
Fire Brigade was forced to move<br />
to a new fire station on London<br />
St due to its brand new fire<br />
engines being too large for the<br />
old basement.<br />
The library followed a decade<br />
later in 1978, moving just across<br />
the road to the old borough<br />
council chambers.<br />
For over a century, these two<br />
fine buildings – the original fire<br />
station (plus library) and the<br />
borough council chambers –<br />
stood sentinel at the Sumner Rd<br />
main entrance to the town.<br />
In its later years the old fire<br />
station was also known to locals<br />
as the Stanaway’s building,<br />
where Brent and Ann lived until<br />
their home was demolished<br />
following the 2011 earthquakes.<br />
A sad reminder of Lyttelton’s<br />
recent past, the historic corner<br />
remains an empty lot.

We are proud to celebrate our first year of Home Christchurch operating in your community. We<br />
want to thank all of our clients, friends, neighbors and locals for embracing our vision and<br />
experiencing a fresh approach to real estate.<br />
After being in the corporate world for many years, Eddie & Kieren decided to break away and<br />
change the perception of real estate agents as we know it. Our goal from the very beginning has<br />
been to be the most relatable, genuine home specialists in our chosen communities. It’s where<br />
we work, what we know and a place we love to call HOME.<br />
When we sell a HOME we are not just selling bricks and mortar, we are selling a lifestyle and a<br />
community that most will envy. The ocean, estuary, walking tracks and recreation options in the<br />
coastal suburbs are something we all value here at HOME and we love to be able to share this<br />
with new buyers.<br />
Our bespoke and transparent approach to real estate empowers us to do things differently. To do<br />
things better. It’s the level of service you wish you always had, and now you do.<br />

Shops bursting with<br />
festive gift ideas<br />
The countdown to the big day is well underway, so making up the<br />
Christmas gift list will now be a top priority… if you haven’t already done so.<br />
Finding those special gifts and stocking fillers as<br />
well as the Christmas treats for the table is so easy at<br />
our city’s malls and shopping centres, where the shops<br />
are bursting with festive merchandise.<br />
Every woman likes to receive body pampering<br />
gifts, and there is a huge selection of these priced<br />
to suit all budgets at the many pharmacies and gift<br />
shops around the city. Perfume is another favourite<br />
and again there is a wide selection to choose from,<br />
ranging from exciting new releases to the well-known<br />
fragrances that have stood the test of time. Lingerie,<br />
jewellery, fashion accessories, homewares and decor<br />
items – there’s no end to the ideas for the women on<br />
the list.<br />
The men are equally well catered for, from the<br />
sophisticated metro-male boyfriends, to the car-crazy<br />
brothers and the DIY enthusiast and keen gardener<br />
husbands and dads. Choose from clothing, books,<br />
tools, personal grooming items and gadgets to put a<br />
smile on their face on Christmas morning.<br />
Speaking of smiles, nothing gives families more joy<br />
than seeing the excitement of the children opening<br />
their presents. Whether they are delivered by Santa<br />
or snuck under the tree by mum and dad, the cuddly<br />
toys, games, dolls and building blocks, the candy<br />
canes, toy trucks and pretty dresses currently filling<br />
the shops will bring squeals of sheer happiness from<br />
the smallest family members.<br />
The tweens and teens usually have their own ideas<br />
about what they want for Christmas, so the gift cards<br />
offered by a wide range of retailers are the perfect way<br />
to please.<br />

Start a new<br />
Christmas tradition<br />
What could be better than starting some new family traditions this year? Christmas traditions are memories<br />
in the making and help spread a little festive cheer whether with your loved ones or out in the community.<br />
10 great ideas to help make Christmas a magical time of the year<br />
1. Create a Christmas playlist with some of<br />
your favourite carols and songs – play it<br />
loud and every day, if that’s your thing.<br />
Or plan a pre-Christmas sing-along<br />
evening – don’t forget to supply the song<br />
sheet so everyone can join in too.<br />
2. Get into the spirit of Christmas by getting<br />
together with family or friends to help<br />
decorate each other’s houses – turn up<br />
the music, drink the wine and go all out<br />
to deck the halls.<br />
3. Make and send homemade Christmas<br />
cards – there’s nothing more exciting<br />
than getting mail, right? Or how about<br />
writing some generic ones and dropping<br />
them into your nearest retirement<br />
home to brighten up an elderly person’s<br />
Christmas.<br />
4. Buy your family Christmas tee-shirts or<br />
Santa hats to wear on the day and don’t<br />
forget to take a family selfie.<br />
5. Fill a shoebox with gifts for a child, wrap<br />
it with a bow, and deliver to the nearest<br />
community gift tree – check with your<br />
local library and label with age and<br />
gender.<br />
6. Have a yearly family, friends or neighbour<br />
outdoor games night with drinks and<br />
nibbles leading up to the big day – think<br />
Pétanque, hoopla, mini golf, giant chess,<br />
or croquet.<br />
7. Take a leaf out of Iceland’s traditional<br />
‘Jolabokaflod’ or Christmas Book Flood,<br />
and give a book as a gift on Christmas<br />
Eve each year – don’t forget to write<br />
inside the cover who it’s from and the<br />
date.<br />
8. Make a list of must see Christmas movies<br />
to watch a week before Christmas day<br />
and tick off the ones you’ve watched.<br />
Don’t forget the popcorn and hot<br />
chocolate or nibbles and wine.<br />
9. Make and give a handmade ornament<br />
as a gift each year – the lucky receiver’s<br />
Christmas tree will be covered with<br />
beautiful, handmade memories.<br />
10. Make homemade hot chocolate on<br />
Christmas Eve or on Christmas morning<br />
to drink while the presents are being<br />
opened – decorate with whipped cream,<br />
grated chocolate, marshmallows, or<br />
crushed candy canes.<br />

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas<br />
Christmas is a great time for passing down recipes that are tried and true becoming<br />
traditional family favourites. The owner of this recipe says her mum used to make<br />
the pudding on Christmas Eve and would take the bowl and wooden spoon around<br />
everyone in the house to stir the mixture and make a wish.<br />
Make a Wish Christmas Pudding<br />
You will need:<br />
• 1 ½ tbsp butter<br />
• 1 ½ tsp baking soda<br />
• 1 ½ cups of boiling water<br />
• 1 ½ cups flour<br />
• 1 ½ cups mixed fruit or sultanas<br />
• ¾ cup sugar<br />
Method:<br />
1. In a glass or stainless steel bowl,<br />
melt the butter (over hot water)<br />
and dissolve the baking soda.<br />
2. Add the boiling water and<br />
sugar.<br />
3. When cool, add flour and<br />
mixed fruit.<br />
4. Stir all the ingredients together<br />
and make a Christmas wish.<br />
5. Cover bowl with a tea towel and<br />
allow to stand overnight.<br />
The next day:<br />
• Place mixture into a greased<br />
bowl or ice-cream container,<br />
cover with tinfoil and place in a<br />
pot of water, just deep enough<br />
so the bowl doesn’t float.<br />
• Boil pudding for four hours and<br />
check regularly to make sure<br />
the water has boiled dry. Top<br />
up carefully with extra water if<br />
required.<br />
• Serve with heaps of Chantilly<br />
cream!<br />

Aggressive look for new Outlander<br />
THERE IS NO doubt Mitsubishi<br />
make particularly good cars,<br />
they also make particularly good<br />
television advertisements.<br />
One I find quite entertaining is<br />
that for the outgoing Outlander, it<br />
demonstrates the amount of space<br />
inside the mid-size sport utility<br />
vehicle and includes my favourite<br />
segment, Monty the white persian<br />
cat getting a short shrift from<br />
sleeping comfortably inside the car.<br />
Mitsubishi had a successful<br />
Outlander runout and it has<br />
been replaced with a new<br />
generation model, although the<br />
concept of old has been very much<br />
maintained.<br />
The newcomer has a fresh<br />
exterior design, it is squared-off<br />
up front with an aggressive grille,<br />
bumper and bold headlight shrouds.<br />
There’s also a new driveline,<br />
well, there is a new engine, the<br />
2.5-litre petrol unit is coupled to<br />
continuously variable transmission<br />
that Mitsubishi has utilised to<br />
good effect for many years now in<br />
the Outlander and other models.<br />
As before, the Outlander is also<br />
available in three front and three<br />
four-wheel-drive variants.<br />
The six-model range starts at<br />
$41,990 for the 2WD LS and ends<br />
at $54,990 for the seven-seat 4WD<br />
VRX, which is the subject of this<br />
evaluation.<br />
Like most car builders these<br />
days Mitsubishi isn’t immune from<br />
manufacturing and supply issues<br />
due to an ever-increasing global<br />
shortage of microchips and semiconductors,<br />
and depending on the<br />
time of purchase that could well<br />
determine specification inclusions.<br />
However, Mitsubishi are<br />
reasonably well placed and the new<br />
Outlander in VRX form is highly<br />
specced. Major items include full<br />
leather trim with heated seats<br />
up front and in the second row,<br />
electric seat adjustment, headup<br />
display, Bose audio, electric<br />
panoramic sunroof, kick-motion<br />
tailgate, wireless smartphone<br />
charging, triple-zone climate<br />
control and satellite navigation that<br />
sits in a large and comprehensive<br />
central touch screen.<br />
It was a bit of a surprise to learn<br />
there was a completely new engine<br />
for Outlander. The old 2.4-litre<br />
unit served the Outlander well<br />
and was a real honey in terms of<br />
how it operated. Nevertheless,<br />
the new engine picks up the<br />
same fundamentals, it is quiet,<br />
has efficiency and is relatively<br />
powerful. It has power outputs of<br />
135kW and <strong>24</strong>5Nm, up 9kW and<br />
21Nm respectively from the old.<br />
The <strong>24</strong>88cc unit is also listed with<br />
an 8.1l/100km combined cycle<br />
average.<br />
That’s quite good for a big<br />
petrol-powered SUV and they<br />
VERSATILE: Twenty-inch wheels on the Outlander help<br />
raise ground clearance and offer off-road flexibility.<br />
MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER VRX: Bold front end and new engine for latest generation model.<br />
are figures I would rate as<br />
being achievable under perfect<br />
conditions. During my evaluation<br />
time, the readout was constantly<br />
sitting around 9l/100km. That<br />
included a lot of inner-city driving<br />
and my usual highway run. At<br />
100km/h the engine is loping over<br />
gently at 1500rpm, returning an<br />
instantaneous figure of 4.8l/100km.<br />
On the subject of figures, the<br />
Outlander will accelerate from a<br />
standstill to 100km/h in 9sec and<br />
will complete a highway overtake<br />
(80-120km/h) in 5.8sec.<br />
The engine works fluidly through<br />
the transmission, that’s one of<br />
the benefits of CVT, it allows the<br />
engine to work freely and, as such,<br />
is highly responsive, it isn’t flighty<br />
but it works the entire rev band<br />
willingly. The driver has the use of<br />
a paddle-shift gearing selector, it<br />
will lock the transmission into one<br />
of eight steps, which is useful for<br />
travelling on hill roads and many<br />
other applications.<br />
There’s also an economical mode<br />
that dulls the throttle response in<br />
the interests of saving fuel use.<br />
Mitsubishi builds great fourwheel-drive<br />
systems, and the new<br />
Outlander has the benefit of years<br />
of development through previous<br />
generation models and the likes<br />
of Lancer Evolution, Triton<br />
and Pajero models. The Super<br />
All-Wheel-Control system has<br />
many driver-selectable functions<br />
• Price – Mitsubishi<br />
Outlander VRX 4WD,<br />
$54,990<br />
• Dimensions – Length,<br />
4710mm; width, 1862mm;<br />
height, 1748mm<br />
• Configuration – Fourcylinder,<br />
four-wheel-drive,<br />
<strong>24</strong>88cc, 135kW, <strong>24</strong>5Nm,<br />
eight-step continuously<br />
variable automatic<br />
• Performance –<br />
0-100km/h, 9sec<br />
• Fuel usage – 8.1/100km<br />
through a centre console dial. The<br />
evaluation car had only travelled<br />
400km when I picked it up, so I<br />
wasn’t prepared to drive crosscountry,<br />
but I did tackle a short offthe-seal<br />
road near Hororata, and<br />
could certainly feel drive kicking in<br />
through all four corners.<br />
The Hororata River was merely<br />
a dribble as I drove through the<br />
rocky river floor, it was a good<br />
test of suspension control, the<br />
four-strut system soaking up<br />
well the uneven surface. That’s<br />
another Outlander credential, it<br />
is occupant-friendly with wellcushioned<br />
underpinnings.<br />
That would also be a hard<br />
equation to get right, the<br />
newcomer sits on low profile 20in<br />
Bridgestone tyres (255/45), yet ride<br />
comfort hasn’t been jeopardised,<br />
the suspension has absorption<br />
and with supple seating the new<br />
Outlander is comfortable and<br />
relaxing to drive.<br />
With those big tyres there<br />
is also much feedback at the<br />
steering wheel and positive<br />
corner turn-in, accuracy is<br />
precise. Getting a big SUV to<br />
steer well is a big ask for the<br />
suspension engineers, but<br />
I’m pleased to report the new<br />
Outlander has control and a<br />
deliberate handling quality.<br />
When pushed into some corner<br />
challenges it feels rigid and stable,<br />
the high-quality tyres dealing to<br />
everything asked of them.<br />
More than anything the new<br />
Outlander is the useful wagon we<br />
have come to know and appreciate<br />
the model for. It, too, has the space<br />
inside that Mitsubishi has marketed<br />
well in previous generation models.<br />
Occupants seated in the rear row<br />
should be thankful, it’s really just<br />
an area for children or small adults,<br />
yet it doesn’t feel confined back<br />
there and getting in and out isn’t<br />
too onerous.<br />
The new Outlander has a certain<br />
finesse, especially in VRX form,<br />
it is plush and incredibly well<br />
appointed, I’m sure Monty would<br />
approve.<br />
I can’t wait to see Mitsubishi’s<br />
promotional material for the<br />
newcomer, the advertising agency<br />
has a hard act to follow.<br />
has motoring covered!<br />

Quaint design, contemporary comfort and<br />
captivating views are just a few of the<br />
entrancing elements to this elegantly enhanced<br />
character cottage, which is perfectly positioned<br />
upon the lower slopes of Scarborough.<br />
This eminently desirable location delivers<br />
a spectacular vantage point, overlooking<br />
Sumner Beach with the vista stretching out to<br />
the Southern Alps.<br />
Contemporised with considerable care and<br />
proportioned to please, the cottage is<br />
configured over three levels, with entry being<br />
via the middle floor. It's here you'll find the<br />
magnificently modernised kitchen and<br />
bathroom, which sit superbly alongside<br />
lovingly retained traditional features,<br />
including a bay window and lead lights in the<br />
open plan living and dining area.<br />
Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz<br />
One of the bedrooms also occupies this<br />
floor, while the other is located upstairs and<br />
has a separate entrance.<br />
The ground floor plays host to the<br />
laundry and an extremely versatile studio<br />
with French doors to provide an ideal balance<br />
of functionality and flexibility.<br />
The approx. 572sqm site includes an<br />
expansive timber deck for alfresco<br />
entertaining, with original stone walls,<br />
built-in seating and a terraced garden<br />
enhancing aesthetical appeal.<br />
This pocket of Scarborough currently has<br />
walk-on access only; however, engineer's<br />
concept plans are available for potential<br />
future drive-on access and garaging.<br />
Being within a stroll of the beach, esplanade<br />
and Sumner shops, it's little wonder that<br />
properties in this position are rarely offered<br />
to the market, and interested buyers are urged<br />
to act with appropriate haste.<br />
