Swing set dedicated to Reuben<br />

COLOUR: Ruth Markham-Short and Jeremy Smith with eight-week-old son Rupert at Redcliffs Park. The couple<br />

have donated a swing set in memory of their son Reuben (inset).<br />

• By Kristie Boland<br />

WHEN 23-month-old<br />

Reuben Smith died from<br />

meningococcal septicemia<br />

a year ago, the Redcliffs<br />

and Sumner communities<br />

rallied to raise money to<br />

support his parents, Ruth<br />

Markham-Short and Jeremy<br />

Smith.<br />

Now, that money has<br />

been donated back to the<br />

community in the form of a<br />

new swing set.<br />

wharf<br />

likely<br />

to be<br />

replaced<br />

AKAROA’S 134-year-old wharf<br />

may be replaced with a new<br />

structure.<br />

The replacement will cost<br />

$19.1 million and will be funded<br />

through the city council’s Long<br />

Term Plan.<br />

Work on the replacement<br />

wharf has been under way since a<br />

structural assessment of the iconic<br />

landmark in late 2<strong>01</strong>8 found it<br />

was reaching the<br />

end of its viable<br />

life, and it was no<br />

longer possible<br />

or economical to<br />

keep repairing<br />

and maintaining<br />

it.<br />

head of parks<br />

Andrew<br />

Rutledge<br />

Andrew Rutledge said the council<br />

had been working in partnership<br />

with Ōnuku Rūnanga and talking<br />

to key stakeholders in Akaroa<br />

for several months about how to<br />

replace the wharf.<br />

RUTH MARKHAM-<br />

SHORT and Jeremy Smith<br />

went through every parent’s<br />

nightmare a year ago: They<br />

lost their 23-month-old son<br />

Reuben to meningococcal<br />

septicemia.<br />

People in Sumner and Redcliffs<br />

rallied, raising $4800 to<br />

support the shattered couple.<br />

Now Ruth and Jeremy have<br />

given back to the community<br />

by using the money and some<br />

of their own to buy a swing set<br />

for Redcliffs Park for the community<br />

to use (see page 1).<br />

Why: Because Redcliffs Park<br />

was where Reuben loved to<br />

go. After navigating red tape<br />

to get permission, the purple<br />

news<br />

swing set – Reuben’s favourite<br />

colour – was installed over the<br />

weekend.<br />

“We wanted to do something<br />

meaningful with [the money].<br />

We wanted to give back,” said<br />

Ruth.<br />

Such a nice gesture.<br />

Clubhouse one step closer to new home<br />

Funding also allocated for church<br />

ALSO SUPPORTED with<br />

funding is a planned memorial<br />

dedicated to the now-demolished<br />

St Joseph the Worker Catholic<br />

Church in Lyttelton.<br />

Consecrated in 1865, St<br />

Joseph’s was the first Catholic<br />

stone church built in the South<br />

Island but was lost in the 2<strong>01</strong>0-11<br />

earthquakes.<br />

The Friends of St Joseph the<br />

Worker Memorial Charitable<br />

Trust is fundraising to create a<br />

memorial to the building and its<br />

community.<br />

The city council’s sustainability<br />

and community resilience committee<br />

gave a $7490 grant to help<br />

the trust repair and restore the<br />

original iron gates, archway and<br />

railings, which have suffered<br />

damage and deterioration.<br />

These will be used to create a<br />

memorial along the Winchester<br />

St frontage where the church<br />

used to sit.<br />

Once built, the trust is planning<br />

a second project involving<br />

a memorial seat, information<br />

panels and a display of significant<br />

items, including two crucifixes<br />

and the church bell.<br />

HERITAGE: The clubhouse at its original site in Dampier <strong>Bay</strong>, Lyttelton.<br />

A CLUBHOUSE completed in<br />

1923 for the Canterbury Yacht<br />

and Motor Boat Club is one<br />

step closer to finding a new,<br />

permanent home beside the<br />

Governors <strong>Bay</strong> Jetty.<br />

It comes after a grant of $58,500<br />

was made by the city council’s<br />

sustainability and community<br />

resilience committee.<br />

The money will help with the<br />

cost of moving and upgrading<br />

the building.<br />

A familiar landmark in<br />

Dampier <strong>Bay</strong> for 80 years, the<br />

clubhouse has been used by the<br />

Sea Scouts, the Dampier <strong>Bay</strong><br />

Maritime Club and many other<br />

groups.<br />

When the Lyttelton Port<br />

Company redeveloped the area it<br />

shifted the building off the water<br />

onto port land and sold it to four<br />

local supporters for $1.<br />

It was subsequently purchased<br />

by the Governors <strong>Bay</strong> Jetty Trust,<br />

which plans to renovate it for use<br />

as a community boat house.<br />

Once relocated, the building<br />

will be restored and repaired so<br />

it can begin life anew. Work will<br />

include new pile foundations in<br />

the water, conservation of the<br />

timber structure, electrical upgrades<br />

and new toilet facilities.<br />

The trust estimates the total<br />

cost of the works to be $405,000.<br />

The proposed new site itself<br />

has special significance as the<br />

place where craftsman and boat<br />

builder Lionel Jefcoate’s boat<br />

shed once stood.<br />

‘In some ways it has been healing for us’<br />

• From page 1<br />

Ruth and Jeremy noticed Redcliffs<br />

Park where they used to<br />

take their son, needed new play<br />

equipment. They approached<br />

the Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board with their<br />

idea to donate a new swing.<br />

The purple swing set, Reuben’s<br />

favourite colour, was<br />

installed over the weekend.<br />

The community raised $4800<br />

for Ruth and Jeremy. That<br />

money was used to pay for the<br />

swings.<br />

“We wanted to do something<br />

meaningful with [the money].<br />

We wanted to give back,” said<br />

Ruth.<br />

The swings are a way to say<br />

thank you to the Redcliffs and<br />

Sumner people who supported<br />

Ruth and Jeremy through the<br />

most difficult year of their lives.<br />

At 4am on <strong>December</strong> 17,<br />

Reuben awoke unwell. He had<br />

a temperature and showed<br />

signs of having a sore stomach.<br />

At 10am, Ruth and Jeremy<br />

took him to a medical centre.<br />

By noon, Reuben had a rash<br />

and was rushed to hospital to<br />

be treated for meningococcal<br />

septicemia, an infection of the<br />

bloodstream that causes organs<br />

to shut down.<br />

“It’s very fast moving. He went<br />

downhill very fast . . . it’s a bit<br />

like having your kid tied to the<br />

railway tracks and seeing the<br />

train coming and not being able<br />

to do anything about it,” Ruth<br />

said.<br />

The doctors and nurses did<br />

everything they could for Reuben<br />

but his body had begun to<br />

shut down and there is nothing<br />

more they could do.<br />

At 5.10pm that day, Reuben<br />

died.<br />

Up to 15 per cent of people<br />

carry the bacteria that cause<br />

meningococcal disease. The<br />

chances of Reuben dying from it<br />

were .0002 per cent his parents<br />

were told.<br />

After hearing about Reuben, a<br />

lot of the community have had<br />

their child vaccinated against<br />

meningococcal disease, Ruth<br />

said.<br />

“It’s too late for us, but if we<br />

can stop anyone else going<br />

through what we’ve been<br />

through.”<br />

Ruth and Jeremy said Reuben<br />

was “the dream of a child.”<br />

He was happy, cruisey, full energy<br />

and extremely observant.<br />

He loved exploring his world,<br />

loved animals and loved the<br />

sandpit, he came home from<br />

pre-school most days with sand<br />

in his pants.<br />

Reuben left an impression on<br />

a lot of people. His teachers at St<br />

James pre-school described him<br />

as one of the most relaxed kids<br />

they’d had.<br />

“We were proud of him, he<br />

was a really special child,” Ruth<br />

said.<br />

One of Reuben’s favourite<br />

things to do was play on the<br />

swings.<br />

The swing set now gives Ruth<br />

and Jeremy a place to go to remember.<br />

A plaque will go up for<br />

Reuben on the boulder placed in<br />

front of the swings<br />

“Its a gift from us but in some<br />

ways it has been healing for us,”<br />

Ruth said.<br />

Ruth and Jeremy will be able<br />

to take their eight-week-old son<br />

Rupert to play on the swings<br />

when he is older.<br />

Baby Rupert has helped his<br />

parents with the healing process.<br />

“A big part of me is gone, but<br />

since having Rupert, that big<br />

part of me that has been lost has<br />

come back,” said Jeremy.<br />

On Monday night, the family<br />

gathered at the park to remember<br />

Reuben, have a play and<br />

enjoy fish and chips.<br />

The one-year anniversary of<br />

Reuben’s passing is approaching.<br />

While this is a painful time<br />

for the family, the swings have<br />

given them something happy to<br />

focus on and celebrate.<br />

• From page 1<br />

“The current thinking is we<br />

will remove the existing wharf<br />

entirely before starting to rebuild<br />

on the same footprint, retaining<br />

the current length and width of<br />

the existing wharf in the new<br />

structure.<br />

“We will be improving structural<br />

capacity for loading and<br />

unloading on the new wharf,<br />

and looking to provide some<br />

additional capacity for vessels,”<br />

Rutledge said.<br />

It is proposed to raise the new<br />

wharf deck height by a minimum<br />

of 50cm, to allow for sea level rise<br />

and storm surges and to ensure<br />

the longevity and all weather use<br />

of the structure.<br />

Rutledge said the new wharf<br />

will not be a replica of the existing<br />

one, but be its own structure.<br />

“We’ll be using the best materials<br />

available for the conditions,<br />

which complement the<br />

local environment and take into<br />

consideration the longer-term<br />

maintenance costs. We’re also<br />

looking at how we can ensure the<br />

history of the wharf is captured<br />

and recorded, as well as collecting<br />

its intangible heritage including<br />

personal memories and stories<br />

from the community.”<br />

Alternative arrangements are<br />

being looked at for commercial<br />

operations – such as fishing<br />

vessels, mussel boats, businesses<br />

located on the wharf and cruise<br />

ships – during deconstruction of<br />

the old wharf and construction of<br />

the new one.<br />

“Elements from the wharf<br />

which have been identified as<br />

having high heritage significance<br />

will be salvaged wherever possible<br />

and we are exploring ways<br />

that some of these can be incorporated<br />

into the new structure or<br />

used for interpretation.<br />

“There may also be an opportunity<br />

for the community to access<br />

and use some of these salvaged<br />

materials for other projects in<br />

Akaroa and we’ll share details<br />

New wharf won’t be a replica<br />

NEW: The city council is proposing removing the Akaroa<br />

wharf in its entirety before starting on a replacement.<br />

about this as soon as we can.”<br />

Work on deconstructing<br />

the wharf and building the<br />

replacement is not due to start until<br />

2024, with some repairs expected<br />

to keep it operational during this<br />

time.<br />

Information sessions about<br />

what is being proposed will<br />

THE REDCLIFFS Residents<br />

Association is “extremely<br />

disappointed” with the decision<br />

against removing the rocks at<br />

Clifton beach.<br />

The group, which has been<br />

advocating for the removal of the<br />

rocks for more than two years,<br />

said the beach is nothing like it<br />

used to be before.<br />

The rocks were brought to the<br />

surface of the beach following<br />

construction along the Coastal<br />

In 2<strong>01</strong>9 the city council sieved<br />

the excess sand and removed<br />

rocks more than 100mm from<br />

were still rocks present.<br />

During the meeting the group<br />

advised the board that the rocks<br />

“are not going to be a problem<br />

pointless to remove the rocks and<br />

a waste of council’s funds.”<br />

However, Redcliffs Residents<br />

be enjoyed like it was before as<br />

the rocks prevent people from<br />

walking along it.<br />

“People would sit on the beach<br />

New hoops bring back basketballers<br />

• By Kristie Boland<br />

BOUNCE: New youth workers Sunbeam Hope (left) and Eve Mickell with Lyttelton<br />

Recreation Centre manager Nathan Mauger and volunteer Joseph Tyro, in front of the<br />

new basketball hoops that were recently installed at the centre.<br />

BRAND NEW basketball<br />

hoops is what it took to attract<br />

a significant number of new<br />

faces to the Lyttelton Recreation<br />

Centre.<br />

Nathan Mauger, recently<br />

appointed manager at the centre,<br />

noticed there was a lot of keen<br />

basketballers in the community,<br />

but after taking a look at the<br />

existing backboards and hoops<br />

realised they were from when he<br />

was in his youth – about 30 years<br />

ago – and were well and truly<br />

“past their last legs.”<br />

He arranged for the new<br />

basketball hoops, which were<br />

sponsored by the Lyttelton Port<br />

Company. Within 24 hours of<br />

the hoops being put up, local<br />

teenagers were playing basketball<br />

for hours on end, Mauger said.<br />

A basketball programme has<br />

also been developed and runs on<br />

Thursdays for ages 16 and up.<br />

“It’s all self-managed, no refs,<br />

just an honesty system. We ask<br />

for a koha on the day and we<br />

just make up teams and play. It’s<br />

really relaxed, but you get a good<br />

run for a couple of hours,” said<br />

Mauger.<br />

The recreation centre, in<br />

conjunction with Pioneer<br />

Basketball Club, also ran a<br />

programme for 13-16 yearolds<br />

recently and will have<br />

a competition, the All Star<br />

tournament, on <strong>December</strong> 16.<br />

Mauger, a former Crusader,<br />

said having a space for residents<br />

to come in and be active was<br />

important, with the ultimate<br />

objective to encourage people to<br />

get healthy through exercise and<br />

sport.<br />

He is following in the footsteps<br />

of his late mother Christine, who<br />

started a youth programme in<br />

Lyttelton in the early 1990s and<br />

later became chairwoman of the<br />

Lyttelton community board.<br />

South Canterbury DHB<br />

Director of Māori Health Joseph<br />

Tyro grew up in Lyttelton<br />

and went along to the youth<br />

programme every week.<br />

In 2006, he was a youth leader<br />

in Lyttelton and continues to<br />

volunteer there and is now<br />

on the board of the Lyttelton<br />

Recreation Trust, which runs the<br />

recreation centre and the youth<br />

programme.<br />

Tyro said it’s important to keep<br />

young people connected and give<br />

them a space to stay active.<br />

“It’s about relationship,<br />

connection, fitness and more,”<br />

he said.<br />

Tyro said the trust is hoping<br />

to start up a new leadership and<br />

wellness programme early<br />

next year.<br />

Who Lived There?<br />

the stories Behind Historic new Zealand Buildings<br />

By nicola mccloy and Jane King<br />

You can’t help but wonder about the stories behind the unusual buildings<br />

you see around New Zealand - from cute colonial cottages to abandoned<br />

industrial buildings or ghost towns. Nicola McCloy went looking to find out ...<br />

who lived there?<br />

From basic stone cottages in barren-looking countryside to pretty coastal<br />

villas, romantic churches and small-town taverns, New Zealand is full of<br />

buildings whose back stories have been lost over the generations. With<br />

beautiful photographs by Jane King, supplemented with historic shots to<br />

show how little or how much some of these places have changed.<br />

Victory over Death<br />

the art of colin mccahon<br />

by rex Butler and laurence simmons<br />

Perhaps at the origin of all thinking about culture lies the question of the afterlife. The<br />

artist makes their work hoping that it will live on after their death. The critic reads or<br />

looks at the work wondering whether a future audience will engage with it. Victory<br />

over Death: The Art of Colin McCahon takes up this question of the afterlife of the<br />

work of art by looking at the work of the New Zealand painter Colin McCahon, who<br />

is often described as one of the most important Australasian artists of the twentieth<br />

century. Imagine for a moment being a great artist in faraway and culturally<br />

marginal New Zealand in the 1950s. The audience for your work does not yet exist.<br />

You are destined to die unknown. So, what does McCahon do? He makes work -<br />

as do all the artists we remember - for a future audience.<br />

In the Company of Gardeners<br />

inspirational Gardens and inspired Gardeners of new<br />

Zealand<br />

by Juliet nicholas<br />

Magnificent gardens of different types from all around New Zealand, with entertaining<br />

stories on their origin, inspiration and development - all stunningly photographed.<br />

From lush regenerating native bush, through formal gardens and heritage fruit trees, to<br />

community gardens and a dry garden in Central Otago, there is a place here to inspire<br />

everyone. The stories of their inspirational founders and developers are told simply<br />

and informatively, and bring the gardens to life. Several of the gardens have been<br />

developed by siblings, partners or families, all drawing strength and ideas from each<br />

other. After reading this book you won’t know which urge is stronger - to get outside<br />

and do some gardening, or plan a tour of inspirational gardens of New Zealand.<br />

Soldiers: Great Stories of War and Peace<br />

by max Hastings<br />

Soldiers is a collection of the very best stories about soldiers. In his almost<br />

sixty years of military study and his work in the midst of modern conflicts<br />

as a foreign correspondent, these are the stories that left a mark. In these<br />

pages you will find heroes and cowards; triumphs, tragedies and comedies.<br />

It illustrates, mostly through people’s own words, what it’s been like to fight<br />

in wars, to live and die as a warrior, from Greek and Roman times through to<br />

today’s Iraq and Afghanistan. There are more than 300 stories in all, and an<br />

astounding variety of soldiers’ experiences through the ages. This is a book<br />

that might make you feel as grateful that whatever the troubles of our own<br />

times, we are spared the mud and blood and anguish, if also the moments<br />

of glory, that the soldiers in these pages bring so vividly to life.<br />

towards, but they are very grateful for the ongoing promotion. ​<br />

Mural recognises sacred site<br />

• By Kristie Boland<br />

AFTER A year in the making,<br />

a mural for Lyttelton’s new<br />

community creative space – Te<br />

Puna Auaha – was unveiled over<br />

the weekend.<br />

The site of<br />

the mural, on<br />

7 Norwich<br />

Quay, is<br />

a sacred<br />

historical site<br />

for hapu and<br />

iwi. When<br />

Hēmi Korako<br />

foundations<br />

on the site<br />

were removed<br />

in 2<strong>01</strong>2, due to the February 22,<br />

2<strong>01</strong>1, earthquake, it revealed<br />

the remains of a pre-European<br />

contact Māori oven and midden<br />

deposits, including a broken<br />

adze.<br />

Artist Hēmi Korako, 24, took<br />

the significance of the site into<br />

consideration when he designed<br />

the mural.<br />

“The site is significant for its<br />

association with Māori occupation<br />

of this area and gives today<br />

a glimpse back into the past,”<br />

Korako said.<br />

The painting forms the shape<br />

of an eye and represents past,<br />

present and future.<br />

Korako was inspired by the<br />

Māori proverb (Whakatauki):<br />

Kia Whakatōmuri Te Haere<br />

Whakamua which means: I walk<br />

SIGNIFICANT: A Lyttelton mural that forms the shape of an eye and represents past,<br />

present and future was unveiled over the weekend.<br />

backwards into the future with<br />

my eyes fixed on my past.<br />

Korako explains the meaning<br />

behind the painting: “The past<br />

is central to this piece being the<br />

circle representing the spiritual<br />

realm of Te Ao Māori before<br />

contact of outsider influence. It’s<br />

acknowledging the environmental<br />

forces that connect Māori to<br />

our gods and the spiritual world.<br />

Its about recognising and being<br />

grounded within the Māori<br />

world view, culture and history.<br />

“In the centre it has three koru’s<br />

that represent the three main<br />

streams of migration that share<br />

a connection to Whakaraupo<br />

and make up our Iwi as we know<br />

today and they are Waitaha, Kati<br />

Mamoe and Kai Tahu.<br />

“Then the present is flowing<br />

out into the physical realm as<br />

we know today, with both Māori<br />

and Pakeha influence. Lastly, behind<br />

all that is the future being<br />

celestial where the spiritual and<br />

physical meet and join together<br />

into the poutama pattern to create<br />

the future unfolding.”<br />

Korako is the son of former<br />

National MP Nuk Korako and<br />

his wife Christine. He was born<br />

and raised in Rāpaki O Te Rakiwhakaputa<br />

The 24-year-old artist who also<br />

works in conservation as a field<br />

officer has always had a passion<br />

for creativity.<br />

“I won’t box myself in and<br />

say I’m just a painter as I think<br />

being a creative person, it<br />

branches out into all aspects of<br />

life just like any other human<br />

and that’s how it should be,”<br />

Korako said.<br />

His passion and creativity<br />

has evolved since he was a<br />

child.<br />

“True creativity to me is a style<br />

or essence that everyone has and<br />

it’s how they choose to express<br />

themselves, to show who they are<br />

in the truest sense.’’<br />

Korako encourages others to<br />

create what they want too.<br />

“Self creation is self awareness<br />

and therefore true creativity<br />

is a process of understanding<br />

yourself more for real,” he said.<br />

Treasures from the past:<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> master John Clark<br />

Carl Bonniface shares the<br />

story of his great, great<br />

grandfather Captain John<br />

William Clark<br />

The Clark family, many of<br />

whom were seamen, emigrated<br />

from Scotland to Tasmania in<br />

the early 1800s. John William<br />

was born in Hobart in July 1834;<br />

like many young men of that era<br />

he ran away to sea at a young<br />

age, first sailing between San<br />

Francisco and Australia, then<br />

onto steamers and service under<br />

Captain McMeekan.<br />

Captain Clark commanded<br />

the Tarama, the Gilliesborg, the<br />

Albion, the Alama Hamilton and<br />

the Rungasooma. In 1862, aged<br />

28, he was issued a special pilots<br />

licence by the New South Wales<br />

Government, appointing him<br />

Pilot of Sydney <strong>Harbour</strong> (then<br />

known as Port Jackson). Later,<br />

he was master of the ship the<br />

Chariot of Fame, which brought<br />

colonial troops to the Waikato<br />

Wars on 7 October 1863.<br />

In 1866, Captain Clark<br />

joined the intercolonial trading<br />

company McMeekan and<br />

Blackwood of Melbourne. When<br />

the firm was taken over by the<br />

Union Steamship Company in<br />

1879, he came to Lyttelton as<br />

master of the steam paddle tug<br />

Lyttelton.<br />

In 1885, Captain Clark became<br />

harbour and dock master for the<br />

Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong> Board, taking<br />

over from the first harbour<br />

master, Captain Hugh McLellan,<br />

who had held that office<br />

since 1877.<br />

Clark famously sued the<br />

Christchurch Press for libel for an<br />

anonymous letter which claimed<br />

that he “was grossly overpaid<br />

– annoying and disturbing<br />

the ships’ masters at port,<br />

discourteous and irritating”.<br />

https://collection.<br />

canterburymuseum.com/<br />

objects/709326/macdonalddictionary-record-johnwilliam-clark<br />

Clark won the case and was<br />

awarded 25 pounds damages<br />

and the chance to clear his<br />

reputation.<br />

When Clark died in 1909 at the<br />

age of 75, flags on all the steamers<br />

in port and at the harbour<br />

master’s office were flown at half<br />

mast.<br />

https://paperspast.<br />

natlib.govt.nz/newspapers/<br />

CHP19090705.2.44<br />

He was survived by his wife<br />

Ellen, who died in 1944 at the<br />

great age of 97. Their house at<br />

3 Exeter St is still standing<br />

today.<br />

•Many thanks<br />

to Bonniface<br />

family history.<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 />

• ¾ cup sugar<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 />

Mazda takes EVs to a new level<br />

THE ARRIVAL of the Mazda3<br />

hybrid last year was just the start<br />

of the company’s foray into electric<br />

vehicle production.<br />

Mazda doesn’t do things halfheartedly,<br />

their hybrid programme<br />

has been extended to a radical new<br />

vehicle that has just landed in New<br />

Zealand, it is badged the MX-30<br />

and design-wise it would sit in<br />

the sport utility vehicle category,<br />

but its cheeky, squat appearance<br />

could also have it seen as a cutesy<br />

hatchback.<br />

Probably the most significant<br />

thing about the MX-30’s design is<br />

the freestyle rear doors; put simply,<br />

they open rearwards offering access<br />

to the rear seats. Three occupants<br />

can be seated there, there are three<br />

seat belts, but it is a little bit of a<br />

squeeze for adults. Mazda, is no<br />

stranger to this type of design, the<br />

RX-8 had them along with some<br />

extended cab Bounty utes.<br />

It’s not just the look of the<br />

MX-30 that captures attention,<br />

the hybrid model has been joined<br />

by a completely electric version,<br />

whereas the hybrid has a 2-litre<br />

petrol engine as well as an electric<br />

motor, a system utilised in the<br />

Mazda3, this evaluation focuses<br />

on the exciting all-electric plug-in<br />

version, a car that tells you Mazda<br />

is serious about caring for the<br />

environment in this age where<br />

buyers are demanding electric<br />

vehicles in a bid to combat climate<br />

change.<br />

The all-electric MX-30 lists at<br />

$74,990, for interest’s sake the<br />

hybrid sits at $46,790, both are<br />

competitive in a market where<br />

electric power is finding its<br />

happy position in terms of<br />

pricing. The full $8625 clean car<br />

rebate is available on the all-electric<br />

variant.<br />

Both are high grade models,<br />

Limited for the hybrid and<br />

Takami for the all-electric. Takami<br />

represents everything Mazda can<br />

build into the model, the trim and<br />

fitment is as you would expect from<br />

Mazda these days, it is beautifully<br />

finished and care and quality are<br />

the manufacturing hallmarks.<br />

In terms of specification the<br />

Takami wants for nothing, there<br />

is satellite navigation, keyless<br />

entry and power switch, full<br />

leather trim with heated seats and<br />

heated steering wheel, advanced<br />

infotainment network, active<br />

driving and head-up display,<br />

electric sunroof, Bose audio,<br />

and the full suite of Mazda’s<br />

i-ActiveSense safety technology,<br />

the latter contributing to a five-star<br />

Australasian New Car Assessment<br />

Program rating.<br />

Mazda has made it easy to<br />

understand the way the MX-<br />

30 charges. There are three<br />

fundamental procedures. If you<br />

buy an MX-30 it will come with<br />

what Mazda label a ‘wallbox.’ It’s<br />

a device you would need to have<br />

installed on a wall connected<br />

STYLING: The Mazda MX-30 is a compact sport utility<br />

vehicle with bold design cues.<br />

MAZDA MX-30: High level of fitment in Takami specification.<br />

directly to your home’s electrical<br />

circuit, it also stores the cable.<br />

That way it’s just a simple matter<br />

of grabbing the cable and plugging<br />

into the car. There’s also the option<br />

of a three-pin domestic plug cable<br />

and a type 2 DC cable that you<br />

would use at an external rapid<br />

charging station.<br />

Mazda claims a 224km travelling<br />

distance for the MX-30, slightly<br />

more if you drive in an eco-friendly<br />

manner, slightly less if the car<br />

is under load. From empty the<br />

MX-30 should gather a full charge<br />

in around five hours using the<br />

wallbox. By my reckoning they<br />

are user-friendly figures, easily<br />

enough for the daily commute and<br />

a weekend trip to visit relatives in<br />

the urban townships.<br />

As part of my evaluation I drove<br />

from the city to Burnham and back<br />

home through Lincoln, the energy<br />

storage gauge was showing threequarters<br />

when I left, and there<br />

was about one-third charge left<br />

when I got home after the 90km<br />

return journey. I thought that was<br />

generous because where possible I<br />

cruised at the legal speed limits so<br />

it was an exercise where maximum<br />

drain would have been taking<br />

place.<br />

Driving the MX-30 requires little<br />

special technique, you just push<br />

D on the drive selector and away<br />

• Price – Mazda MX-30<br />

Takami, $74,990<br />

• Dimensions – Length,<br />

4395mm; width, 1795mm;<br />

height, 1555mm<br />

• Configuration – Electric<br />

motor, front-wheel-drive,<br />

107kW, 271Nm, automatic<br />

• Performance –<br />

0-100km/h, 9.2sec<br />

you go, quite swiftly I add. There’s<br />

107kW on offer and a healthy<br />

torque figure of 271Nm, both<br />

available from a standstill, if you<br />

push hard you can reach 100km/h<br />

in 9.2sec, acceleration is swift and,<br />

of course, silent.<br />

The feel of energy you get is<br />

quite satisfying, power is instant<br />

and unfaltering, transition of<br />

motion is seamless and quite<br />

unlike what you get with internal<br />

combustion engines. Don’t get me<br />

wrong, I love petrol power but I<br />

can see why drivers like the pull<br />

you get from electric motors,<br />

there is a strong feeling of<br />

movement.<br />

I pushed hard into a couple<br />

of tight corners near Burnham<br />

and can report that MX-30 has<br />

definite steering feel and precise<br />

turn-in. Drive is through the front<br />

wheels so the handling is much<br />

the norm we have come to expect<br />

from today’s SUVs, nevertheless<br />

directional accuracy is forceful<br />

and grip from the low profile<br />

Bridgestone tyres (215/55 x 18in) is<br />

enhanced.<br />

The MX-30 utilises a front-strut/<br />

rear torsion beam suspension<br />

set-up, much the same as we have<br />

experienced in Mazda3 and it<br />

works well given its simplicity,<br />

the spring and damper rates are<br />

certainly biased towards comfort.<br />

That’s not saying handling is<br />

compromised, it’s not, the MX-30<br />

sits low at 1.5m and much of the<br />

weight is carried low down in the<br />

subframe so that gravitational<br />

movement is low.<br />

In my introduction I mentioned<br />

some of the design aspects of the<br />

MX-30, it’s very different to what<br />

we would deem mainstream. If<br />

there was one thing that stands<br />

out for me it is the cork material<br />

that lines the centre console, it’s a<br />

standout and, according to Mazda,<br />

durable and sustainable.<br />

That’s the direction Mazda is<br />

heading, if you are a MX-30 buyer<br />

you will be responsible for five<br />

trees being planted in this country,<br />

that’s another one of Mazda’s<br />

commitments to environmental<br />

care. Just another reason to make<br />

an electric car your choice in the<br />

future.<br />

Canterbury, we need<br />

to talk about our<br />

changing climate.<br />

Climate change is already affecting our<br />

local communities and ecosystems. It is<br />

not an easy or small topic. That’s why our<br />

local and regional councils have pooled<br />

resources, knowledge and expertise to<br />

help people understand, prepare for and<br />

adapt to changes that Canterbury is likely<br />

to experience.<br />

The It’s time, Canterbury website is home<br />

to reputable information and resources.<br />

Explore these pages to learn about what<br />

changes are expected here in Canterbury,<br />

and pick up some ideas about how you<br />

can help minimise, and adapt to, the<br />

impacts of climate change.<br />

What is climate change?<br />

Over many years, scientists and tohunga<br />

have learnt a lot about Earth’s climate<br />

system. We know that recent changes<br />

in the climate are widespread, rapid,<br />

and intensifying, and unprecedented<br />

in thousands of years.<br />

As Earth’s temperature<br />

continues to rise, it causes<br />

changes in rainfall, weather<br />

patterns, and the frequency<br />

of extreme events, as well<br />

as ice melt and sea level<br />

rise. This results in a range<br />

of effects we experience in<br />

our natural environment<br />

and the areas we live in.<br />

Climate change in Canterbury<br />

If we carry on as usual, and greenhouse<br />

gas emissions continue to increase,<br />

average temperatures in Canterbury are<br />

projected to increase by up to 3.5°C by<br />

the end of the century. The likelihood<br />

of drought conditions is also projected<br />

to increase, and fire risk will increase as<br />

soils and plants become drier.<br />

Alongside drought, we can expect<br />

wetter winters in many eastern, western<br />

and southern parts of Canterbury,<br />

with up to 40% more rain.<br />

What’s being done?<br />

The more we learn about the challenges<br />

associated with climate change in<br />

Canterbury, the more we can use our<br />

knowledge to make wise decisions.<br />

Councils are thinking differently about<br />

biodiversity, water availability, flood<br />

protection, coastal erosion, energy,<br />

land, urban design, infrastructure<br />

and industry so you, your whānau, your<br />

community or your business can be<br />

supported to better understand and<br />

proactively respond. Mō tātou, ā, mō<br />

kā uri, ā muri ake nei – for us, and our<br />

children after us.<br />

If we work together to reduce emissions,<br />

we can collectively limit the amount of<br />

warming in Canterbury/Waitaha.<br />

Can I really make a difference?<br />

Absolutely! The easiest thing you can<br />

do is be informed and become part of<br />

the conversation. Make sure you have<br />

verifiable facts to base your discussions<br />

and actions on and talk with others<br />

about what you know.<br />

On the It’s time, Canterbury website,<br />

you can show and share your support<br />

simply by putting your name to the<br />

cause, as well as learn about projected<br />

changes in your district.<br />

For those who want to act, there are<br />

ideas showing how simple changes can<br />

support New Zealand’s commitment<br />

to reducing greenhouse gas emissions,<br />

because everyone has a role to play,<br />

and it starts at itstimecanterbury.co.nz.<br />

We’re here to help you understand, manage and prepare for more changes Canterbury is likely to face in the future.<br />

Because as well as taking action to reduce the impacts of climate change, we need to ready ourselves to adapt to them.<br />
