Brothers, 

rugby and 

books 

• By Kristie Boland 

BRENDAN NOLAN was 

watching his 5-year-old son 

reading last year when he had 

a realisation: Wouldn’t it be 

good if more kids this age were 

reading instead of playing 

PlayStation? 

So he created the coaching 

programme ‘Bread and Butter’, 

which he’s now looking to 

expand into other rugby and 

sports clubs in Canterbury. 

www.starnews.co.nz 

SKILLS: Brothers Odin and Rikard Hanekom are part of a new rugby coaching programme ‘Bread and Butter’, 

designed to encourage reading.

Police deny 

claim they 

are not 

patrolling 

busy roads 

• By Fiona Ellis 

POLICE REFUTE a claim they 

are not adequately patrolling the 

Christchurch Northern Corridor 

and Cranford St. 

The finger has been pointed 

by Papanui-Innes Community 

Board member Ali Jones, which 

prompted the board to ask police 

to target the area for speeding. 

Jones and the board say speeding 

cars are contributing to the 

noise area for residents living 

along the two 

roads. 

But Senior 

Sergeant Mike 

Jones said the 

area was already 

actively patrolled 

for speeding 

traffic and other 

issues. 

Ali Jones 

“The area is already patrolled 

regularly by police and we will 

continue to do so,” he said. 

Jones said, in her experience, 

traffic was not keeping within 

speed limits. 

“What people are doing is not 

even five or 10 ks over, there’s 

actually some really dangerous 

driving going on,” Jones said. 

Speeding traffic was a key 

cause of the ongoing noise issue 

in the area, and she thought 

reducing speed would help to 

address residents’ concerns about 

this.

Submissions support cycleway 


THE MAJORITY of 424 

submissions support the third 

and final section of the Nor’west 

Arc Cycleway, a city council 

analysis has revealed. 

Just 12 per cent of submitters 

opposed the construction of 

the cycleway, which would link 

Canterbury University to Jellie 

Park and Harewood Rd, and 

a further 23 per cent were 

neutral. 

However, design details 

divided the submitters on the 

project, which has received $10.5 

million in funding as part of 

the Government ‘shovel ready’ 

projects. 

Safety and parking were frequent 

concerns. 

Submitters were split on the 

two proposed designs for Ilam 

Rd. 

A one-way cycleway on each 

side of the road was favoured 

by 55 per cent of submitters 

who selected an option, while 

45 per cent preferred a two-way 

cycleway on the west side of the 

road. 

Of those who supported the 

first option, safety was a common 

reason, cited by 32 submitters. 

Ilam Rd residents W and PJ 

Gilroy said it was obviously the 

safer option. 

“We will only have to look one 

way for approaching cyclists as 

we exit our drive and we will

have a clear view of vehicles 

approaching from the right. At 

present, our view is obstructed 

by vehicles parked close to the 

exit from our garage and drive.” 

University lecturer Mads 

Thomsen, who said he cycled to 

the university every day, called 

the first option “1000 times 

better, safer, and more efficient” 

as it would reduce the need for 

cyclists to cross the road. 

The need to retain parking 

spaces was a popular reason 

among those who favoured the 

second option, cited by 25 submitters. 

Mortlocks Lawyers Partner 

Guy Mortlock favoured a twoway 

cycleway, stating there was 

already a shortage of parking 

in the area, especially with high 

demand from students. 

“It is important to retain as 

much parking as possible, while 

still making cycling safer than it 

currently is,” he said. 

Safety was also cited as a factor 

by 12 submitters who preferred 

the second option. 

Bellbird Hearing Clinic 

Manager Sam Sloane stated he 

was afraid a cycleway in front 

of the clinic, located on the east 

side of Ilam Rd would create an 

increased risk of car accidents 

with his elderly clients and 

supported a two-way cycleway 

instead. 

Submitters were also split on 

the proposed design options for 

Aorangi Rd from the intersection 

of Ilam Rd to them the 

intersection of Brookside Tce. 

A two-way cycleway on 

the west side of the road was 

preferred by 62 per cent of submitters 

who selected an option, 

while 38 per cent preferred a 

shared path on the west side of 

the road. 

Safety was a top concern by 

those who preferred the first option, 

cited by 40 submitters. 

For example, submitter Paul 

Ainsworth said a shared path 

would be disastrous. 

“Having scooters, cycles etc 

travelling at 30km/h in the same 

area as pedestrians will only lead 

to serious accidents,” he said. 

Fourteen submitters who 

chose this option also wanted to 

avoid poor user behaviour they 

believed would be an issue with a 

shared path. 

Submitter Richard Ibbitt said 

his experience with shared pathways 

had not been good. 

“The pedestrian usually has 

to give way to cyclists, not all of 

whom seem to appreciate that a 

shared space means that all parties 

using the pathways have to 

be equally considerate.” 

Although the second option of 

a shared path was less popular 

overall, all of those who lived 

along this section of the route 

and made a choice between the 

two designs selected this option. 

Maintaining on-road car 

parking was the reason cited by 

30 submitters who chose this 

option.

Final decision expected next year 

• From page 1 

Aorangi Rd resident Emma 

King stated loss of car parking 

was a concern. 

However, safety was also cited 

by five submitters who prefer 

this option, including student 

Aestival Britten, who travelled on 

Aorangi Rd most days. 

“Shared paths provide a good 

option as there’s enough space 

for cyclists to pass slower scooter 

users and scooter users to pass 

slower pedestrians without jostling 

for space,” Britten said. 

The planned design for the 

intersection of Aorangi and 

Wairakei Rds also caused a 

divide among the 53 submitters 

who shared their opinions. 

The design put to the public 

would stop through traffic and 

right turns for cars travelling in 

either direction along Aorangi 

Rd. 

Twenty-one submitters supported 

the design, citing safety 

benefits. 

Kathy Beswick said she liked to 

cycle but that the current intersection 

was horrendous and she 

avoided using it 

“I fully support this aspect of 

the plan,” Beswick said. 

However, more submitters opposed 

the design, with 25 people 

objecting due to access issues and 

predicting traffic on side roads 

would increase. 

Submitter Alastair Christie 

said strongly opposed the blocking 

off through traffic and traffic 

turning right. 

“This intersection as this will 

make it much more difficult for 

me to access a large part of my 

city,” Christie said. 

The cycleway section has 

received $10.5 million in funding 

as part of the Government ‘shovel 

ready’ projects. 

The cycleway hearing panel is 

set to make its recommendation 

to the urban development and 

transport committee early next 

year, with the committee to make 

the final decision. 

A report included in the 

agenda of the hearings panel by 

city council senior engagement 

adviser Tessa Zant requested the 

panel to recommend a one-way 

cycleway is installed on each side 

of Ilam Rd, varying between 1.8 

and 2m wide. 

It also requested a 4m shared 

path from the corner of Jellie 

Park up to Truman Rd, and from 

there a 3m two-way cycleway 

along Aorangi Rd to the intersection 

with Wairakei Rd. 

The report recommended the 

intersection remain closed to 

through traffic and right-turning 

traffic. 

If the project is approved, work 

is expected to begin in mid to late 

2022. 

Delay in low noise asphalt 


Low noise asphalt was 

scheduled to be installed on the 

CNC last month, but the project 

was pushed back and is now 

expected to be completed by 

April 2022. 

Waka Kotahi NZ Transport 

Agency said the delay is due to 

a hold-up in getting one of the 

key ingredients for the top coat, 

epoxy resin, shipped from the 

United States. 

City council data taken in May 

shows an average daily traffic 

count of 24,741, in Cranford St 

between Innes Rd and Knowles 

St, with an average speed of 

42km/h. 

NZTA traffic data shows 

190,627 vehicles used the CNC 

last week, a daily average of 

27,232. 

The average speed of northbound 

traffic was 101.3km/h 

and the average speed of 

southbound traffic was 

98.7km/h.

kiwi 

board was waiting for more traffic 

information but her impression 

was still that speed was a 

problem. 

She questioned the location 

point at which speed data was 

gathered, saying people were 

speeding before reaching the 

100km/h zone of the CNC. 

“People roar along the motorway 

even before the QE II 

turn-off.” 

Winters Rd resident Alan 

Johnson said the noise was stressful 

to those who lived in the area, 

and the low noise asphalt was the 

only solution. 

“If they slow [traffic] down I 

don’t think it will totally address 

the noise issue,” Johnson said.

Teaching kids life principles with B.R.E.A.D. 


What began as having the team 

read for 15 minutes before training 

morphed into a new way of coaching, 

connecting and teaching kids 

some important life lessons. 

With Bread and Butter, Nolan 

endeavours to go beyond just 

coaching rugby skills. It’s about 

teaching kids the foundations of 

being a good person – the ‘bread 

and butter’ of life. 

The C Pups, who all attend 

Heathcote Valley School, spend 

15 minutes before training 

reading a book of their choice 

with their parents and 

caregivers. 

After every game, the player 

of the day is presented with the 

B.R.E.A.D book, which they can 

take home and write a story in it 

about their experiences of rugby 

so far. They present it to the team 

the following week and then pass 

the book onto the next player of 

the day. 

“It’s something that keeps them 

involved longer than say just half 

an hour after the game, something 

to be proud of,” Nolan, 

who works for the Lyttelton Port 

Company, said. 

Bread and Butter is not just for 

rugby. 

“It’s just the principles of being 

good people. In rugby, they say 

good people make good rugby 

players. But don’t wait until 

they’re 20, why don’t we start 

putting this to the kids when 

they’re young.” 

“If they get their bread and 

butter right, they can go from 

there. It’s giving them the 

opportunity from a young age.” 

The programme isn’t just for 

the kids – it also connects parents 

and caregivers. 

Jenna Timoti’s six year-old 

son Mason Boyd has played two 

seasons for the C Pups. Timoti 

said Mason is a very capable 

reader, but getting him to read 

was a chore. Bread and Butter 

helped Mason see reading as 

something that’s just part of 

training. 

Timoti said she has seen a 

difference in her son’s behaviour 

since he has been coached by 

Nolan. 

“Mason is someone who is 

easily distracted and needs 

structure. I can see a difference 

in his confidence, he’s so 

determined and the values he 

has learned have made him 

more empathetic. He’s a lot more 

caring,” she said. 

Similarly, Heathcote Valley 

School principal Bruce Ellison 

said he has seen a change in 

the kids since they have been 

coached by Nolan. 

“I’ve seen them grow as 

people and I’ve seen their 

relationships with each other 

AVID: The C Pups under-6 

team reading the B.R.E.A.D 

book together, and their 

coach Brendan Nolan. 

Nolan also coaches the 

Christchurch seniors, the 

seniors sevens and Waitaha 

Matua, the Canterbury 

Maori men’s team. 

grow,” said Ellison. 

“It’s a no brainer, why haven’t 

we been doing something like 

this all along?” 

Nolan said a programme like 

this would have made him look 

at rugby differently. 

“When I was playing, it was 

just about showing up and 

playing the game, but I think this 

is more of a deeper connection.”

Rugby and books 

THE C PUPS: Before training sessions, both children and 

parents spend 15 minutes reading. 


Nolan wants that connection to 

be fostered. 

“It teaches kids to care for the 

area, the grounds, care for the 

opposition and each other. It’s 

contagious and its something 

that needs to be nurtured,” he 

said. 

Nolan wants to break down the 

club versus club mentality, and 

connect coaches as well. 

Mainland Football interim 

chief executive Martin Dodgson 

loves the idea of Bread and Butter 

and believes most sports face the 

same challenges. 

“We love the concept and the 

story behind it . . . The concept of 

giving kids ownership over what 

they do,” he said. 

Dodgson thinks Bread and 

Butter captures the essence of 

sport. 

“Sport teaches us lessons and 

those lessons can be hidden 

deep but [Brendan] brings these 

lessons to the surface,” he said. 

“The scoreboard would suggest 

who the winner or loser is, but 

this teaches kids what a real 

‘winner’ is and what success 

looks like.” 

Nolan now hopes to take 

the coaching programme 

Canterbury-wide and has had 

positive feedback from clubs and 

other sports organisations. 

FIRST PLACE: Marty and Naomi with their Hospitality New Zealand award for best local 

bar and eatery. 

Strowan bar and eatery 

takes out top NZ award 


A NATIONAL competition has 

found the country’s best local bar 

and eatery, located in the heart of 

Strowan. 

The Elmwood Trading Company 

took the award during a 

virtual Hospitality New Zealand 

Awards for Excellence 2021 

prizegiving event. 

Owner Marty Fuller said he 

was “absolutely wrapt” with the 

result. 

“Given that it’s a national event 

and it had a record number of 

entries, even to be shortlisted 

is significant. To win is exceptional,” 

Fuller said. 

He and wife Naomi had owned 

the business for three-and-a-half 

years and aimed to create a place 

with good food and drink options, 

and events such as quizzes. 

“We don’t get any tourists, 

we’re completely reliant on people 

from the area. 

“We have a great bunch 

of regulars.” 

With over 40 years in hospitality, 

the win was a culmination of 

his and others’ experience. 

A national awards dinner 

was originally set to be held in 

Auckland in September, but was 

rescheduled due to Covid-19. 

The prizegiving was then 

made into a virtual event 

attended by about 70 people 

from Christchurch, including 

Elmwood staff and Fuller’s 

family.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas 

Christmas is a great time for passing down recipes that are tried and true becoming 

traditional family favourites. The owner of this recipe says her mum used to make 

the pudding on Christmas Eve and would take the bowl and wooden spoon around 

everyone in the house to stir the mixture and make a wish. 

Make a Wish Christmas Pudding 

You will need: 

• 1 ½ tbsp butter 

• 1 ½ tsp baking soda 

• 1 ½ cups of boiling water 

• 1 ½ cups flour 

• 1 ½ cups mixed fruit or sultanas 

• ¾ cup sugar 

Method: 

1. In a glass or stainless steel bowl, 

melt the butter (over hot water) 

and dissolve the baking soda. 

2. Add the boiling water and 

sugar. 

3. When cool, add flour and 

mixed fruit. 

4. Stir all the ingredients together 

and make a Christmas wish. 

5. Cover bowl with a tea towel and 

allow to stand overnight. 

The next day: 

• Place mixture into a greased 

bowl or ice-cream container, 

cover with tinfoil and place in a 

pot of water, just deep enough 

so the bowl doesn’t float. 

• Boil pudding for four hours and 

check regularly to make sure 

the water has boiled dry. Top 

up carefully with extra water if 

required. 

• Serve with heaps of Chantilly 

cream! 

Chantilly 

Cream 

You will need: 

• 1 x bottle of cream 

• ½ tsp vanilla essence 

• 1 tbsp icing sugar to 

sweeten 

Method: 

Put cream, vanilla essence 

and icing sugar in a bowl and 

whisk until light and fluffy with 

softly formed peaks. Cover and 

refrigerate until ready to serve.

RAY WHITE PAPANUI NEWS 

Ray White Papanui & Little Ray of Giving 

Ray White Papanui is extremely proud 

to partner with the Christchurch 

Kidney Society for our Little Ray of 

Giving campaign this Christmas. 

The Christchurch Kidney Society 

(CKS) was formed in 1973, initially 

as the New Zealand Kidney, Dialysis 

and Transplant Society. Their aim is 

to provide support for Christchurch 

patients and families of patients who 

are either approaching or have already 

reached end-stage renal failure. 

This year the Christchurch Kidney Society 

would greatly appreciate your donation of: 

• Gifts for teenagers 

• Gifts for adults 

• Gifts for families 

• Gifts for children 

Please add a wee note on the donation 

Privacy Commission Laws & Property Management 

The Privacy Commission recently 

released guidelines around what 

information a landlord can legally 

request from a tenant when they are 

applying for a rental property and on 

the surface this can look like a scary 

prospect. However, as in most of the 

changes in legislation we come across 

in our industry, when you dig a little 

deeper and have processes in place, it is 

in fact not quite what you first thought. 

Discrimination has of course, and 

rightly so, never been allowed when 

choosing your tenants and this includes 

anything from what race, religion, 

sexual orientation or anything else 

which will of course not actually affect 

the tenancy. 

The ethos of the new legislation is 

essentially that landlords are only 

permitted to collect information 

needed for a lawful purpose connected 

to finding tenants and managing 

tenancies. 

The major change which has got 

landlords up in arms is that we 

are no longer allowed to request 

employment status at the first part 

of the application process. This of 

course upset landlords as it does seem 

reasonable and not in breach of privacy 

or any human rights to ascertain 

whether a tenant can pay the rent each 

week. 

However, as I mentioned when you 

Feature Properties 

as to who the gift would be appropriate 

for so they can make sure it gets to the 

right person. 

Stuck on ideas? 

Something to read, nice toiletries, a 

small puzzle or game, a gift card for 

Apple or similar, treats (in boxes and 

labelled in case of food allergies), toys 

for children, crossword, sudoku and 

word find books, as well as anything 

else you think would be lovely for 

someone who is receiving dialysis. 

Please deliver your gifts to Ray White 

Papanui, Level 1, 7 Winston Avenue, 

Papanui (above Black & White Coffee 

Cartel). 

The last day for gifts to be delivered is 

5.30pm, Monday 20 December 2021. 

Thank you for your kind support. 

look further into the legislation and 

weigh up when it is reasonable to 

collect essential information, at a later 

point it can be done. What this means 

is that a tenant application process will 

become a four step process, as opposed 

to collecting all of the information on 

the initial application form it will have 

to be staggered. 

It should look something like this: 

Step one – tenant arranges to view the 

property. At this stage they can offer 

to submit an application, however this 

cannot be requested by the landlord. 

You can only collect their name and 

contact information. 

Step two – the tenant completes an 

application form with their basic 

personal information, i.e. name & 

contact information, proof of identity, 

whether they are over 18 (but not their 

age), contact details for referees and 

consent to contact them and how many 

people would be living at the property, 

plus other details. 

Step three - when you vet a shortlist 

before deciding who the property will 

be offered to. This is where we can ask 

questions in regards to affordability of 

the rent. This could include a payslip 

or letter from an employer or work 

and income and evidence of rental 

payments from a previous tenancy. 

Be careful here however as you are not 

allowed to ask for evidence of spending 

We know everyone who is a part of the 

Christchurch Kidney Society will really 

appreciate your support. 

The Ray White Papanui Team 

habits, bank statements etc. 

Step four comes into effect once the 

tenant has been offered the property 

and you are completing the tenancy 

agreement. Now it is permitted to 

ask things like vehicle details, an 

address for service and other similar 

information. 

So what is already a thorough due 

diligence process can continue, it is 

just a longer process. Of course a 

tenant is able to provide you with any 

information they would like to, we can 

just not ask for it! 

The Privacy Commission announced 

that they are setting up a dedicated 

phone line in March 2022 where 

tenants can call and report any 

breaches of The Privacy Act and The 

Human Rights Act and I have a feeling 

they may be rather busy given what 

I often read in some rental property 

advertising. 

It is quite a complex process so if you 

have any questions to ensure you don’t 

get it wrong, please feel free to give 

me a call. As I always say, training and 

knowledge are the key to successfully 

owning an investment property.
