Sports stars set sights 

on ambitious goals 

• By Chris Barclay and Mick Jensen 

AN ULTRA-talented cyclist and 

sailor reigned supreme on the roads of 

Hokitika and off Napier’s coastline over 

Anzac weekend and can now reset their 

sporting goals for further afield. 

Sumner’s Amelia Sykes, one of New 

Zealand’s leading age group cyclists, has 

set her sights on the track cycling junior 

world championships in Tel Aviv, Israel, 

in August while Will Leech (Charteris 

Bay) is focused on mastering a new 

sailing class after claiming back-to-back 

national optimist titles. 

Promising middle distance athlete 

Kiera Hall wasn’t competing over the 

long weekend, but the 17-year-old from 

Mt Pleasant also has overseas travel on 

her agenda after the national under-18 

800m champion was recently selected 

to represent New Zealand at meets in 

Australia and South America.

The Modern Singhs 

The true story of a marriage of two 

cultures 

by Abbey Singh and Money Singh 

Abbey and Money Singh are better known as The Modern 

Singhs, Kiwi social media celebrities with a rich and tangled love 

story to tell. 

Shared through the eyes of this inspiring duo, The Modern Singhs 

reveals their experiences as migrants to New Zealand as they struggled to find footing 

in new surroundings. They describe how they met and pursued a relationship that was 

forbidden by Money’s culture, where he felt he had to choose between his family and the 

love of his life. The couple opens up about the difficult birth of their son, their journeys 

with mental health, a complicated sense of home, and what it’s like to raise bilingual 

children across three cultures. 

The rest is history - or at least uploaded to YouTube, where Abbey and Money’s joyful 

outlook and celebration of tradition unites 1.3 million viewers from all over the world, 

encouraging others to embrace difference with open hearts. 

The Restless Years, Book #3 

The Leonard Girls 

by Deborah Challinor 

Rowie’s pro-war, her sister Jo’s a protester. And they’re both in Vietnam. The compelling 

new novel from the bestselling author of From the Ashes 

In 1969, at the height of the Vietnam war, nurse Rowie Leonard is serving a 12-month 

tour of duty. She supports the war and is committed to caring for wounded New Zealand 

and Australian troops. After a few months, however, she realises that nothing at all about 

the conflict is as clear-cut as she’d assumed. 

Her younger sister, Jo, is the opposite - a student at Auckland University, a folk singer 

and a fervent anti-war protestor. But when Jo falls for professional soldier Sam Apanui, 

home on leave to visit his ill father, she finds herself torn between her feelings and her 

convictions. 

As the three of them grapple with love, loss, and the stresses and sorrows of war, each 

will be forced to confront and question everything they believed.

A MT Pleasant Rd resident is 

urging the city council to dig 

a channel and drain along his 

boundary to save his property 

and six other houses from 

flooding. 

Wayne Rollinson has outlined 

his frustrations to the Linwood-Central-Heathcote 

Community 

Board and is pushing for 

solutions from the city council. 

He told board members that 

since November water had been 

transitioning from the road, 

through his neighbour’s property 

and into the corner of his 

property. 

The flooding was both stormwater 

and reticulation water and 

he had dug a channel to get some 

of it off his property. 

He said the flooding at one 

stage was ‘‘like leaving two taps 

on full bore for three months’’. 

His neighbour’s garden had 

resembled a duck pond and he 

couldn’t believe their house had 

not moved or slipped off the 

section. 

Rollinson said the integrity of 

a retaining wall on his property 

was now fully compromised and 

he had submitted a claim to his 

insurer. The retaining wall and 

the sleepers were not designed to 

be wet for four or five months. 

He said from December 

through to February he had 

warned various people at the city 

council if something wasn’t done 

to stop leaks from both reticulated 

and stormwater then it could

‘‘This issue needs to be dealt

going to keep pushing council

The city council has since 

fixed some water supply leaks 

and installed a bung on the 

road and staff are continuing to 

work through options to find a 

suitable solution for Rollinson 

and his neighbours.

Lions Club’s 

successful 

fundraiser 

for Tonga, 

Ukraine 

THE FERRYMEAD Lions Club 

sold a record 1400 bales of pea 

straw at its last two pea straw 

sales. 

The club raised a total of $6000 

and donated $1000 to Tonga and 

$500 to Ukraine, with the rest 

going to community projects, 

mostly children’s and health 

charities. 

The club thanked everyone who 

bought a bale and members of the 

Ferrymead Bays Football Club and 

the Canterbury Triathlon Academy 

for helping with the two sales. 

Club member Bill Newsom 

said: “Our club is a small club. 

Those donations to Tonga and 

Ukraine do not seem very much. 

However, there are 350 Lions 

Clubs in New Zealand and I expect 

each club has given a similar 

or bigger donation to those two 

countries.” 

The club needs new members

Covid concerns scupper travel plans 

• From page 1 

Leech, the junior member of 

the sporting trio at 13, would 

have joined Sykes and Harris 

in heading abroad but he has 

opted against representing New 

Zealand at the world optimist 

championships on Bodrum, 

Turkey, in June-July. 

A member of the Charteris Bay 

Yacht Club, Leech was eligible 

for the world championships for 

a third successive year but concerns 

over Covid-19 have again 

scuppered those plans. 

“We’ve made the decision not 

to send him to Turkey, basically 

it’s a bit dodgy travelling internationally,” 

said Leech’s father Dan, 

after Will dominated the final 

four races of the regatta to retain 

his crown. 

The year 9 Christ’s College 

student will now focus on the 

two-man 29er skiff. 

“The goal is to get to the youth 

worlds when he’s a little bit older,” 

Dan Leech said. 

“He was very good about it, 

he wants to put the resources double on the West Coast. 

“I blacked out a metre before 

into the next stage of his sailing. Sykes, who won five national the line, I threw everything at it,

years ago. 

She will represent New Zealand

in Cali, Colombia.

by Rio 2016 Olympian and twotime

800m-1500m runner Angie 

Petty. 

The Rangi Ruru student 

has previously raced over 

400m but prefers the longer 

journey. 

‘‘The 800, for me, is a tactical 

race where you have to get 

yourself in the position to win, 

whereas the 400 is just too quick 

a race,’’ she said. 

Hall, who juggles her studies 

with a six-day a week training 

programme, hoped to improve 

on her personal best of 2min 

8.46sec during her overseas 

experiences.

Richness of rural childhood revisited 

Le Bons Bay resident 

John Stuart has 

published a book about 

his childhood in Little 

River in the 1950s and 

1960s. Gary Brittenden 

casts his eye over it 

IF YOU grew up in 1950s and 

1960s rural New Zealand, you 

don’t have to be told what a 

different world it was back then. 

John Stuart, one of Banks 

Peninsula’s most well-known 

and respected characters, grew 

up in Little River and now lives 

in Le Bons Bay. Having recently 

retired at 75, John has put 

together a collection of stories 

that begin with his 1950s Little 

River childhood and wind their 

way through a rich and varied 

life. 

Stuart is not just a great storyteller 

– he is also a very good 

writer. The appeal of this book 

does not just lie in the wonderful 

adventures he had as a young 

lad, but also in his writing, 

which has a touch of magic about 

it. There is a softness and simplicity 

of style and a pervading 

gentle humour that echoes Roald 

Dahl’s Boy and Bill Bryson’s 

stories of his youth in The Thunderbolt 

Kid. 

The first section of the book 

takes us to the long-lost world of 

John Stuart’s 

book My 

life and 

other stories 

recounts 

growing 

up in Little 

River with 

‘softness, 

simplicity 

and gentle 

humour’. 

a rural, post-war childhood. For 

Stuart and his ‘cobbers’ (such a 

1950s word) it was a time of innocence 

and freedom. They lived 

in a place where the imagination 

ruled supreme. The adventures 

they got up to will bring misty 

eyes to those who shared this 

time, and incredulity to those 

who didn’t. Health and safety 

officers, read at your peril! 

After his school days Stuart 

went to university, was conscripted 

into the army, and 

played rugby at a high level for 

his beloved Banks Peninsula 

club, of which he is now patron. 

“During the 1972 season I 

reached the pinnacle of my rugby 

career. I was selected for trials for 

the Canterbury country rugby 

team. 

“At the first lineout, I found 

myself marking the fearsome All 

Black Grizz Wyllie. This is great, 

I thought. But as I attempted 

to impose myself on him, he 

stepped back and fetched me a 

solid clout to the head. 

“My enthusiasm waned for 

quite some time.” 

Stuart was also a very able 

rower, gaining a couple of thirds 

at the nationals and beating a few 

Olympic rowers along the way. 

His interests were not just 

confined to the blood, sweat and 

tears of the sports field. He also 

trod the boards with the local 

drama club, which led to being 

offered a part in a movie that was 

to be filmed in Akaroa. 

“I was offered a speaking 

part – that of a drunken sailor. 

Perhaps it was considered a role I 

had some experience with. 

“Unfortunately, Actors Equity 

objected to having a non-union 

member playing the part and 

I was replaced by pop star Ray 

Wolf. That was the beginning 

and end of my movie career.” 

Stuart was a teacher in 

Akaroa for many years and was 

renowned for his storytelling 

ability. 

This was followed by a stint 

with the Banks Peninsula 

Conservation Trust, running 

predator trap lines in the isolated 

‘wild side’ of the peninsula. 

The book, simply titled, 

My life and other stories is 

full of wonderful tales of 

all these times, originally 

handwritten in a notebook for 

his grandchildren. A couple of 

friends and neighbours had a 

read and persuaded Stuart – 

after some lively discussion – to 

publish. This is a wonderful book 

and deserves to be widely read. 

• My life and other stories 

is available in Akaroa at 

Pot Pourri and the Akaroa 

Museum, and the Little 

River Gallery. Smith’s 

bookshop in The Tannery 

will also have copies.


Past the peak? Why now 

is the time to boost 

As borders open and restrictions on movements and activities 

ease, it is more important now than ever to be up to date with 

your COVID-19 vaccinations. Here, Dr Helen Skinner, ECC 

Incident Controller with Canterbury DHB, shares why it is upping 

the ante on its booster vaccination programme. 

By now, we all know someone who has 

succumbed to COVID-19. Perhaps you’ve had 

COVID-19 yourself? 

For the lucky few, some mild symptoms and a 

bit of weariness might be all that is experienced. 

But from what I've seen, more people are 

suffering some pretty severe effects, many of 

which are going on for weeks. 

Fortunately, many of us were fully vaccinated 

and boosted when the Omicron peak hit 

Canterbury. I can’t state enough just what a 

difference that has made. People who are at the 

peak of their immunity respond much better to 

the virus, and recover more quickly. 

Right now, more than 90,000 people in 

Canterbury are due for their booster. That’s 

why we’re upping the ante this month and 

reminding people of the importance of a booster 

vaccination. 

Winter is fast approaching, and with it, more 

time inside - an even better environment for 

spreading COVID-19. Add to this the likelihood 

of a much more severe flu season that 

we have seen for years, and the risk this 

winter is high. 

Getting boosted is the best way to 

fight Omicron 

After a while, your protection against the 

COVID-19 virus starts to drop away. The booster 

dose gives you the added protection you need 

against Omicron. It increases your immunity 

substantially and it reduces the chance of you 

sharing it with friends and whānau if you do get 

COVID-19. 

If you are 18 or over, and it’s been three 

months since your second vaccination, then 

you’re due for your booster. 

The great news recently is that 16 and 17 year 

olds are now also eligible for boosters. Rangatahi 

in this age group need to wait six months after 

finishing their COVID-19 vaccinations. 

Have you had COVID-19 already? 

I’m often hearing from people asking whether, 

having had the virus, they still need a booster. 

Unfortunately, even if you’ve had COVID-19, you 

can get it again. And, while you get some natural 

immunity through having the virus, it doesn’t 

last. So, boosters matter. You need to wait three 

months since having COVID-19 though. 

It’s heartening to see that most of Aotearoa 

has now reached the peak of daily COVID-19 

cases, but that doesn’t mean the risk has gone. 

COVID-19 is going to be 

around for a long time, 

which is why now is the 

time to protect yourself 

and your whānau – and 

the sooner, the better. 

There are plenty 

places you can get 

your free booster. Find 

your nearest one at

Join us at a vaccination event

Do I really need a booster? 

Getting your booster makes 

it less likely you’ll get really 

sick with COVID-19, or pass it on. 

It is the best thing you can do to 

protect you and your whānau. 

When do I need to 

have my booster? 

If you are 18 or 

over and had your 

second dose at least 

3 months ago, it’s 

time to get your free 

booster vaccine. 

I’ve had COVID-19. 

Do I need to get

Yup, because you

again! Boosters help

How old do I need to be?

Treasures from the past: 

Lyttelton War Memorial 

THE ŌHINEHOU/Lyttelton 

War Memorial may be the mostoften 

moved cenotaph in the 

country. 

Originally called the Fallen 

Soldiers Memorial, it was built 

in 1925, when many similar 

memorials were being erected 

nationwide as New Zealanders 

sought to pay respect to those 

who had lost their lives in World 

War 1. 

The ‘Great War’ was sometimes 

referred to as the ‘war to 

end all wars’; a well-intentioned 

idealistic phrase originally 

coined by H G Wells. The slogan 

came to have a tragic irony given 

World War 1 sowed the seeds 

for World War 2, which resulted 

in the greatest loss of life of any 

conflict in history. 

The 7.9m-tall cenotaph was 

designed by Reverend Canon 

Coates, vicar of Holy Trinity 

from 1891 to 1913. With a base of 

Halswell bluestone and the main 

body made of locally quarried 

Rāpaki stone, it features six 

Scotch granite panels bearing 

the names of Lytteltonians who 

lost their lives in war. The two 

wreaths and crosses on the faces 

of the structure were carved by 

James Hood. 

The memorial was officially 

unveiled in front of a crowd of 

about 2000 by Lord Jellicoe, 

Governor General (formerly 

British Admiral of the Fleet, who 

commanded the Royal Navy 

at the Battle of Jutland in May 

1916). 

The parade was led by the 

Lyttelton Marine Band. In attendance 

were Major General Sir 

Andrew Russell (Commander 

of the New Zealand Division on 

the Western Front) and Minister 

of Defence Sir Heaton Rhodes, 

along with many other dignitaries. 

Built at the intersection of 

Oxford and London streets in 

front of the Lyttelton Borough 

Council building, the location 

soon proved to be problematic 

(the monolithic 1875 Lyttelton 

Borough School, demolished in 

1941, is also visible in the top left 

of the picture). As motor vehicle 

traffic increased in the late 1920s 

and early 1930s, it became a 

hazard and the decision was 

taken to move the cenotaph to 

the small park at the eastern end 

of Simeon Quay. 

The second photograph 

shows a well-attended Anzac 

Day parade in 1962 on Simeon 

Quay, bathed in some welcome 

sunshine. 

Tucked away as it was here, 

below the spur of the Bridle Path 

ridge, there were issues – it was 

mostly shady and caught the bitter 

easterly and southerly winds. 

As port activity and Lyttelton’s 

population increased and Simeon 

Quay saw more traffic, access 

also became a problem, especially 

parking for elderly visitors. 

By the mid-1990s, attendance 

was limited to just a few dozen 

people each year. 

The earthquakes of 2020 and 

2011 caused significant damage 

to the structure; it was protected 

for several years before the opportunity 

to relocate and repair 

it became available with the 

development of Albion Square

on the corner of London and

Christchurch City Council, 

having bought the site of the old 

Albion Hotel in 2012, led the 

creation of this multi-use civic 

space in consultation with the 

Lyttelton community and the 

RSA. 

Albion Square was officially 

opened in November 2014 to 

coincide with the centenary 

of New Zealand’s entry into

World War 1. The main entrance 

through the carved waharoa 

(gateway) was designed in 

consultation with Ngati Wheke; 

called Ōhinehouroko (the 

name of the earliest Māori pa 

site in the town area), it can be 

translated as ‘establishing a place 

of new peacefulness’. 

The restored cenotaph graces 

the quieter upper lawn, alongside 

a children’s play area, seating and 

community art works.

Hidden away from the world on a quiet and 

peaceful rear section, yet mere minutes from the 

thriving hub of Sumner beach, this gorgeous 

four-bedroom, two-bathroom home presents 

a premium prospect for family living in one of 

the city's most sought after locations. 

Downstairs, the home is intelligently

galley style kitchen flowing through to an 

adjoining dining room and separate living 

area - both with doors opening to the

fireplace, the second lounge offers a good 

separation of spaces and can be fully closed 

off from the other rooms, creating privacy 

and intelligent living. 

Accommodation is comprised of a lightfilled 

master bedroom downstairs with an 

ensuite and three further spacious upstairs

all have built-in storage. Practicality is well 

catered to with a laundry room, internal 

access double garage, and off-street parking. 

The grounds are a true delight with 

established trees and a pergola over the 

patio area that is tailor-made for barbecuing 

and alfresco living. Close to the hills, this 

property benefits from the Scarborough 

microclimate and sunny afternoon aspect. 

In-zone for Sumner Primary School and 

close to multiple pre-school options, complete 

family living is on offer. Homes of this calibre 

and size on the flat in Sumner are rare, and 

with the potential to make your own mark 

and personalise the aesthetic, this home presents 

an exceptional prospect in a premier location, 

and interest will be substantial. Early inspection 

is recommended.

Peugeot offers EV buyer plenty of choice 

ONE OF MY work colleagues 

recently swung by my desk for a 

chat. 

Due to his recreational pursuits 

he needs a four-wheel-drive 

vehicle and we often talk about 

what is in the market that would 

suit his requirements. 

However, this time the 

conversation was somewhat 

different, he said there was a 

definite trend developing through 

my columns and he pointed out 

electric vehicles were making up 

a substantial proportion of my 

evaluations. 

He is quite right, and that 

prompted me to look through my 

diary over the last six months. 

Out of 25 evaluations, 16 of 

them were fully electric vehicles, 

hybrids or had some kind mild 

hybrid technology. 

I guess that’s no surprise, 

manufacturers are diving head 

first into battery power, buyers 

are demanding it globally, and 

many car makers have indicated 

that within the next few decades 

all of their models will be 

electrified. 

European brands, in particular, 

have been very proactive in 

building electric vehicles, and 

French company Peugeot is one 

of those that has got popular 

models distributing globally. In 

New Zealand the new 208 has 

an EV option, and it was one 

of those that made up the 14 

evaluation cars I alluded to in my 

introduction. Well, the e-208 is 

joined by the e-2008, a new sport 

utility vehicle that utilises much 

the same driveline and design 

cues, especially the interior. 

It must be mentioned that the 

e-2008 is joined by three internal 

combustion engine variants, the 

range starting at $34,990 and 

ending at $46,990, the EV listing 

at $71,990. 

As mentioned, the e-2008 

shares its front-wheel-drive 

propulsion system with that of 

the e-208, it has a 50kWh rating 

with a motor power output of 

100kW and 260Nm, the latter 

available from just 300rpm, 

providing immediate impetus 

and solid feel of acceleration, 

Peugeot claiming a standstill to 

100km/h time of 9sec with a top 

speed of 150km/h. 

While those figures aren’t 

electrifying, if you’ll pardon 

the pun, they are in tune with 

other EVs, and the e-2008 has 

a substantial travelling distance 

of 332km when fully charged to 

low charge. If you are on the go 

and need a boost from one of 

the nationwide charging ports 

then you get a zero to 80 per cent 

charge in 30min. Otherwise, 

there is a seven hour time to 

recharge from your own wall box 

at home or 28 hours on a threepin 

plug with 10amp supply. 

These are all similar figures to 

the many other EVs I’ve driven, 

and if you put that into context 

FUNCTIONAL: Under the liftback rear, load space in the 

e-2008 is generous. 

PEUGEOT e-2008 GT: Plug-in electric sport utility vehicle that is based on the 208 platform. 

such as when I have an EV in my 

care, I constantly trickle charge it 

from the wall socket in my garage 

and that is easily enough to take 

care of the daily commute as well 

as a little bit of rural running in 

the weekend. It must be said, I 

need longish cables to do that, 

extension cables, double plugs or 

multi-boards are a definite no-no, 

thankfully Peugeot have given 

their cables good length. 

On the road the e-2008 drives 

silently, just like its smaller 

stablemate, it is somewhat feisty 

with that immediate surge of 

acceleration, yet it also drives like 

any other car at city speeds, it is 

superbly smooth and requires no 

special techniques to operate. 

As mentioned, the interior 

is just like that of its siblings, a 

large number of toggle switches 

combined with digital display 

graphics to give the occupants a 

vast choice of how they want to 

travel in terms of comfort and 

convenience. 

In terms of specification, the 

e-2008 wants for little – leather, 

cloth and alcantara trim with 

heated front seats, satellite 

navigation, voice command, 

Apple CarPlay and Android 

Auto connectivity, proximity key 

access, panoramic roof and radar 

cruise control are all fitted. 

In line with its competition 

the e-2008 is priced affordably. 

• Price – Peugeot e-2008 

GT, $71,990 

• Dimensions – Length, 

4300mm; width, 1770mm; 

height, 1530mm 

• Configuration – Electric 

motor, front-wheeldrive, 

100kW, 260Nm, 

automatic 

• Performance – 

0-100km/h, 9sec 

Because it sits below the $80k 

threshold it qualifies for the 

Government’s clean car rebate of 

$8625, which makes for a very 

tempting price tag given what 

you get as a vehicle. 

Notably, it’s a very capable 

family wagon, the SUV concept 

far from jeopardised. At just 4.3m 

it isn’t a big wagon, but it makes 

good use of its proportions; take 

the 434-litre load capacity for 

example, that easily housed a 

Kiddie-household supermarket 

grocery purchase, and if you 

need extra space the rear seats 

fold to extend that capacity to 

1467-litres. 

If you haven’t driven a Peugeot 

before, or haven’t for a few years, 

then you’ll be delighted to know 

that the chassis dynamics that have 

made the company a legendary 

force are incorporated into the 

e-2008. It has one of best rides in 

the SUV market, the suspension 

is plush and cosseting, yet if you 

feel the need to push quickly into 

a corner or two then the handling 

balance is one of complete control 

and body stability. 

There is no ride/handling 

compromise at all, the two gel 

neatly and as a consequence, the 

driver and occupants feel at one 

with the car, comfort is high yet 

the e-2008 easily earns its GT 

badge, it is a true touring car that 

is very hard to find fault with. 

I knew from the outset I was 

going to like the e-2008, I’ve 

been a slow convert to hybrids 

and electric vehicles, but with 

my time in the two 208s I knew 

that with the direction Peugeot 

are heading with their cars the 

SUV would be a class act, and it 

is. Don’t read me wrong, I still see 

petrol engines as my preference, 

but with the way the motor 

vehicles are trending the choice 

in the EV market will become 

increasingly wider, and I’m sure 

with economies of scale prices 

will become more competitive 

between the two. 

Peugeot is giving Kiwis good 

choice – hatchback or SUV, petrol 

or electric, all are quality built, 

and if you do choose an EV then 

you’ll also have peace of mind, 

the battery has an eight-year or 

160,000km warranty, up to 70 per 

cent of charge capacity.
