War games prepare soldier for battle 

Army Reserve Force Private Ryan Joseph from Cashmere was one 

of 60 soldiers who took part in a training exercise on the West 

Coast. The section machine gunner was involved in Exercise Kalami 

held in dense forest near Maruia. Their task was to follow a defined 

path through the bush while under attack, But the decaying 

undergrowth and limited visibility challenged them all as they 

patrolled the area with their weapons and packs while the enemy 

confronted them at every turn. PHOTOS: JOHN COSGROVE

Panel will 

be formed 

to counter 

increasing 

burglaries 

• By Emily Moorhouse 

A COMMUNITY panel will 

be set up to put the brakes on 

burglaries in the Woolston area. 

The panel was one of the initiatives 

raised at a community meeting 

set up by Banks Peninsula MP 

Tracey McLellan and Woolston 

residents with growing concerns 

about burglaries. 

McLellan hosted 

the meeting at her 

office and said it was 

handy to sit down 

with residents and 

compare notes on 

what was happening 

in Woolston. 

Tracey 

She said people 

McLellan 

volunteered to sign 

up for the community patrol to 

increase its presence in the area. 

The meeting ran for roughly 90 

minutes and eight residents attended, 

reporting back on their 

experiences in different streets. 

McLellan said it would have 

been nice to see more people 

there. However, some were unable 

to make the allocated time but 

dropped into her office during the 

day instead. 

“The most important thing is 

we get people together,” she said. 

McLellan said the community 

panel will aim to get business 

owners on board, as well as senior 

students from Te Aratia, formerly 

Linwood College.

EILEEN KERR received a 

fake vaccination booster form 

in her mailbox and while she 

recognised it was fake, she didn’t

Now the 70-year-old Spreydon 

resident is warning others to be 

wary of similar hoaxes. 

When Eileen went to co lect 

the mail, she noticed what 

appeared to be a form to 

book your Covid-19 booster 

vaccinations in advance. 

She sat down a the dinner 

table with pen in hand, abou to 

start fi ling ou the form, when 

she noticed something strange. 

“I started reading and that’s 

when the bomb went off,” she said. 

The form read: “Jabbing our 

way to a “safer” New Zealand?” 

That was enough to make Eileen 

question its authenticity, in spite 

of how official it looked. 

a topic of discussion. 

Eileen said the paper was good “I’m 70, my husband’s

RESIDENTS LIVING near the 

Bromley wastewater treatment 

plant have been “coping with the 

stench” for weeks now and want 

something done to fix it. 

The wastewater treatment plant 

caught fire in November and has 

been emitting an unpleasant sme l 

ever since, causing frustration 

among residents. 

Katinka Visser has lived in 

Bromley for 35 years, and said 

while the stench hasn’t been as 

bad during the new year for her, 

she sometimes felt as though she 

couldn’t breathe. 

“I’ve had three nights that I 

virtualy couldn’t breathe, it was 

that bad, there’s like a fog and it’s 

just sitting. ’ 

She said even after putting her 

head under the blankets, she 

could sti l sme l the stench. 

Visser said because the wind 

has been coming from a southerly 

direction lately, she hasn’t been 

experiencing the sme l as strongly, 

but knows that residents close by 

do. 

“I’m so thankful that I’m not 

affected as much as most people,” 

she said.

worse off than me.”

No decision 

yet to 

appeal 

declining of 

rehabilitation 

facility 

• By Fiona E lis 

THE DEPARTMENT of 

Corrections has until February 9 

to appeal after permission to build 

a contentious rehabilitation centre 

for violent offenders in St Albans 

was declined. 

However, it is remaining tightlipped 

on whether or not it is likely 

to do so. 

Last week the Bristol Street 

Resource Consent Hearing panel 

declined to grant resource consent 

for the Bristol St facility, fo lowing 

a hearing in November. 

The proposal would have seen 

up to 12 men serving sentences 

of home detention at 14 Bristol St 

while participating in a violenceprevention 

programme. Men 

with significant untreated mental 

health issues would not be eligible 

to participate in the programme. 

In their decision, city council 

appointed commissioners Anthony 

Hughes-Johnson QC and Ken 

Lawn said they were not satisfied 

the site was appropriate for such a 

facility. 

Corrections acting regional 

commissioner Chris O’Brien- 

Smith did not answer Nor’West 

New’s question on whether an 

appeal would be made, but said 

corrections would spend the 

next few weeks reflecting on the 

commissioners’ findings.

Board requests briefing over vape store rise 


FRUSTRATION from residents 

about vape stores opening in 

Addington has prompted the 

area’s community board to 

investigate vaping restrictions. 

The Waihoro Spreydon-Cashmere 

Community Board has 

requested a briefing on vaping 

restrictions through smokefree 

legislation. 

Board member Callum Ward 

was approached by resident Jo 

Robertson, who is concerned 

about the concentration of vape 

stores in a small area like Addington. 

Ward said the board hasn’t 

formed a position on the issue 

yet and is awaiting a briefing. 

“We know that vaping does 

have negative health consequences 

and is no longer just a 

replacement for smokers,” he 

said. 

Ward also mentioned the risk 

of vaping undoing a lot of work 

that’s being done in society to 

prevent people from getting addicted 

to nicotine, particularly 

young people who go straight to 

vaping. 

Robertson, who is school 

community liaison at Addington 

School, said vaping is being 

discussed among residents due 

to an increase in vaping shops set 

to open in the area. 

She said there was already 

two vape shops in Addington 

and another one was going to be 

opening soon, as well as dairys 

selling vapes. 

“It’s probably to do with the 

proportion of kinds of shops that 

are in the community,” Robertson 

said. 

“If you end up with a lot of 

liquor stores, vape stores, it just 

tips the balance of stores that are 

bringing positive health-promoting 

things into the community to 

stores that are bringing kind of 

health-constraining things.” 

Robertson said she wants the 

city council to talk about putting 

regulations in place rather than 

“just letting the market decide”. 

“I think the community would 

like to see things that are bringing 

health and well-being into 

our community,” she said. 

The manager of Hoopers 

CONCERN: 

Addington 

resident Jo 

Robertson 

said she 

wants 

the city 

council to 

have more 

regulations 

around 

what kinds 

of shops can 

open in the 

community. 

Vapour in Addington, who 

declined to be named, said he 

had noticed a few different vape 

shops in the area, something his 

customers said wasn’t necessary. 

The business has been operating 

for roughly five years and 

hasn’t received any complaints 

from residents. 

“I believe we are serving people 

who want to quit smoking,” he 

said. “What most non-smokers 

or non-vapers don’t realise is that 

people addicted to nicotine become 

aggravated when they can’t 

have it. It’s like having a morning 

coffee.” 

He said the business has 

helped people quit smoking and 

as the price of tobacco increases, 

it was important to provide 

an alternative.

using the area as an off-road dirt 

track for their motorbikes. 

“It’s an accident waiting to

Campbell reached out to the

“I’m at that stage in my life 

where we have to think about 

what we eat and how we eat it 

to last a little bit longer and feel 

healthy about ourselves,” Taitoko 

said. 

“We (Puāwai-Kai course 

participants) had no idea what 

we were in for, but it was good

about sleeping as well and the

changes in blood pressure,

weight and body fat. 

Faatoese said early analysis 

of data showed all participants 

dropped body fat and had 

lower triglyceride levels. 

High triglycerides are often a 

sign of other conditions that 

increase the risk of heart disease 

and stroke. 

Pegasus Health chief executive 

Mark Liddle said Puāwai-Kai 

helps people learn how small 

changes in the way they live can 

add up to big changes in their 

health and well-being. 

A big change for Taitoko has 

been growing his own food. 

“Being Māori, it’s been getting 

back to the garden and learning 

about that again. Because we 

have been distant. We come into 

the city and found the easy food, 

the fast food to get by. But is it 

the healthiest food? I don’t think 

so. 

“So it’s going back to the 

garden again and growing those 

veges. I’m quite lucky because 

my whole family is starting to 

get into well-being. We bring 

different foods to the table now.”

Stolen table sees the loss of a 

much-used community asset 


A STOLEN community table 

at Mt Vernon Park has left 

Port Hills Park Trust members 

disappointed and frustrated. 

A handmade macrocarpa 

table that sat at the Hillsborough 

Tce car park was stolen, in spite 

of being cemented into the 

ground. 

Trust chair Alan McDonald 

described the table as a “wellused 

community asset” and said 

the removal of it would have to 

have been pre-planned. 

“The table is about two metres 

long, it’s not something somebody 

could just lift,” McDonald 

said. 

He said trust members first 

noticed someone had attempted 

to remove the table on Anzac 

Day, however the attempted 

theft could have happened a few 

days earlier as members aren’t 

patrolling every day. 

The following Thursday, 

members cemented the table 

back into the ground, but the 

next day it was gone completely. 

“The disappointing thing 

is that it was an asset for the 

community and has been taken 

away for someone’s personal 

gain,” McDonald said. 

He said it was even more 

frustrating because the trust is a

charitable organisation and 

all the members are volunteers. 

McDonald has informed 

the police of the theft and 

encourages anyone who saw 

anything to come forward or 

contact the police. 

“Somebody out there must 

know someone’s got a huge 

table,” he said. 

“We’re at a loss, why would 

somebody want to take 

something away from the 

community?” 

McDonald also said there 

has been a wider issue of 

negative behaviour in the 

Port Hills car parks with car 

break-ins, but he wasn’t sure 

if this was related to the table 

theft.

Paul McMahon helped organise 

the meeting and said it was very 

constructive and proactive. 

McMahon said it was important 

to remember to report all crime and 

suspicious activity to the police on 

the 105 number. 

He said residents’ shared their 

experiences with burglaries and 

the group agreed that setting up a 

neighbourhood policing team was a 

good idea. 

McMahon also said there had 

been antisocial behaviour around 

Woolston Village from a particular 

group, which had made other residents 

feel unsafe. 

“It’s a bit frustrating,” he said. “I’ve 

lived in Woolston for 13 years and 

this is the first time my wife has felt 

unsafe going to the shops.” 

Following on from the meeting, 

McMahon contacted Housing First 

to report this and was told they 

would be visiting Woolston Village 

to talk with the group. 

McLellan said overall the meeting 

was successful and another 

one would be set up in a couple of 

months to assess any progress made.

‘You can change things for the better 


HELPING stranded whales and 

preserving endangered plants 

might seem pretty out there for 

some, but for park ranger Dave 

Rate-Smith this is just another 

day in the office. 

The 43-year-old is trained in 

horticulture, construction and 

fine arts, and said being a park 

ranger lets him use all these 

skills. 

“You could be answering 

emails, then fixing a broken 

waterline or making park furniture,” 

he said. “I’m prone to 

getting bored easily and being a 

ranger I don’t get bored.” 

Before Rate-Smith became a 

ranger four years ago, he owned 

a construction business, after 

seeing the need for it following 

the earthquakes. 

After seven years he closed the 

business and joined ecological 

firm Wai-ora, working his way 

up to team leader in two years 

before jumping at the opportunity 

to become a ranger for 

Bottle Lake Forest Park. 

Now Rate-Smith looks after 

multiple parks including Styx 

Mill, The Groynes, McLeans 

Island and Roto Kohatu. 

He said the job changes everyday 

and you have to be prepared 

to “throw your plans out the 

window at any given second.” 

Rate-Smith especially likes 

Sundays because that’s when he 

can talk to the public the most. 

DREAM JOB: Dave Rate-Smith has been a park ranger for four years and said he gets 

excited about going to work.

“It’s when you actually do that 

you become aware of problems 

you might have missed,” he 

said. “I really like seeing their 

reactions when we change and 

improve an area.” 

The responsibilities of a ranger 

seem endless. The job requires 

problem-solving skills, having 

to be a trained firefighter, and 

handling animals such as whales 

and sea lions. 

“We end up with a good range 

of skills but not being specialists 

in any of them, which suits me to 

a tee,” Rate-Smith said. 

Describing himself as an outdoors 

person, Rate-Smith said 

being out in nature is definitely 

one of the highlights of the job. 

“It’s what calms me as a person, 

that’s my happy place in life, 

hearing the fantails twittering 

away,” he said. “That really sort

park ranger. 

of puts a smile on my face. 

“There’s times I think I’d love 

to go off and work for DOC in 

the middle of nowhere but aside 

from my wife not appreciating it, 

I would actually miss the social 

side of it.” 

“It’s not a day in parks 

until you pick up a pair of 

undies” 

– Dave Rate-Smith 

When asked what the strangest 

thing he’s come across at one of 

the parks he laughed and said 

“those would not be appropriate 

for paper”. 

“We see some shocking things 

aye, we see the best and the worst 

of human nature,” he said. 

“People go to parks to do weird 

things, they really do. It’s not a 

day in parks until you pick up a 

pair of undies.”

LAYBY WELCOME


so easily’ ranger says 

CREATIVE: Rate-Smith built this seat in collaboration with a local carver and weaver for 

one of the parks, and made a fairy house in his spare time for the children’s fairy forest in 

Bottle Lake Forest Park. 

When he was tasked with 

replacing picnic tables at The 

Groynes, Rate-Smith said he 

“wasn’t impressed” with the 

cost so took it upon himself to 

design his own tables and get 

an engineer to build and install 

them. This roughly halved the 

cost of ordering tables in. 

It’s things like this that 

make Rate-Smith get up in 

the morning feeling excited 

to go to work, something he 

feels incredibly fortunate to 

experience. 

While Rate-Smith loves his 

job, he said there are some 

aspects that he really struggles 

with, particularly seeing people 

damage the parks. 

“We do all of this work and 

there’s always an element to 

society that seem to congregate 

in parks that want to destroy 

stuff,” he said. 

“You put everything you can 

into it and you do believe in what 

you’re doing, and it might only 

last a week before somebody’s 

destroyed it.” 

He said the rangers had seen 

an increase in people doing 

burn-outs at The Groynes, 

ripping the paddocks to pieces, 

and wondered if this was due to 

frustrations with Covid. 

This time of year tends to 

be the quietest for the rangers 

and they spend it planning and 

planting as well as taking in new 

volunteers to help out around 

the parks. 

Outside of work, Rate-Smith 

enjoys pottering in his garage, 

gardening and painting, and 

is even learning how to tattoo, 

using his legs as a drawing board 

for his “doodles”. 

One of his favourite parts of 

the job is seeing changes such 

as rare birds coming back to 

an area or catching glimpses of 

waterways improving through 

the work the rangers do. 

“We could well be leaving 

something for people hundreds 

of years from now,” he said. 

“You can change things for 

the better so easily; you get to do 

something good everyday.” 

History of the city’s 

east celebrated 

AN EXHIBITION at Linwood 

Library focuses on boosting a 

sense of community through a 

celebration of history. 

Reflections of the East photography 

exhibition has been 

curated by local librarians and 

highlights images of the suburb 

from the early 1900s through to 

the 1990s. 

“After the last two years the 

team really wanted to bring 

back a sense of community and 

place that the library has always 

worked hard to create,” said head 

of libraries and information 

Carolyn Robertson. 

“We hope that people will 

recognise places and events and 

maybe see themselves, their 

whānau or friends in some of the 

images and that there will be discussions 

and reminiscing among 

customers or staff.” 

There will be 30 feature images 

reflecting life and events from 

Linwood, such as the 1982 Davis 

Cup at Wilding Park, the Aranui 

speedway which ran from 1949 to 

1959 and attracted crowds of up 

to 14,000, as well as many others. 

“People can see some wonderful 

images of their area, their 

community, their history. They 

can see what the Discovery Wall 

and Canterbury Stories offers and 

how they can contribute and be 

part of an expanding local digital 

heritage collection,” Robertson 

said. 

The exhibition will be on display 

until June 30. 

There will also be a ‘cup of tea’ 

morning on July 1 from 10am 

to noon with a talk from Canterbury 

Stories staff to finish the 

exhibition. 

“We’re really looking forward 

to the cup of tea morning, which 

should be a great and interactive 

session, showing customers how 

they can become part of the 

story,” Robertson said. 

“So if you have any tales of 

Linwood we should know about, 

please come along.”

Update on the Christchurch 

Wastewater Treatment Plant 

We’re sorry for the distress you’re experiencing because of the stench 

from the fire-damaged Christchurch Wastewater Treatment Plant. 

Since the fire we’ve been 

dealing with two sources 

of odour – the ponds and 

fire-damaged structures. 

We’ve worked hard to reduce 

the smell from the ponds, 

and this work is ongoing. 

However, the other source 

of odour is worse. 

After the recent wet weather, 

the material inside the 

damaged structures started 

to rot and smell. This is now 

our main priority. 

Here’s what we are doing: 

• We have tested the air around the plant. The gases 

present are at levels below those considered toxic. 

However, we know the ongoing stench is affecting 

people’s wellbeing. 

• We are continuing to test the air and are working with 

Environment Canterbury and the Medical Officer of 

Health to monitor and report on the odours. 

• Our contractor is about to set up onsite, so they can 

remove the material from within the structures. 

• The structures are huge. They hold about the same 

volume as 10 Olympic swimming pools. They estimate 

it could take between four to seven months to remove 

everything. If they can do it faster, they will. 

• There will be fortnightly progress updates to the 

live-streamed Council meetings so that up-to date 

information will be available to everyone. 

Available support 

We know the stench has been awful for those 

of you living nearby. We’ve arranged for an 

independent health provider to run two workshops 

at the Aranui Wainoni Community Centre. 

The workshops will be held on: 

• Wednesday 25 May 7–8.30pm 

• Wednesday 1 June 7–8.30pm 

Visit ccc.govt.nz/wastewaterfire for more 

information and to register for these 

workshops, or call 03 941 8999 

If you’re concerned about your health, we 

recommend you see your GP or health provider. 

If the situation is impacting on your mental health, 

you can call or text 1737 at any time and talk to a 

trained counsellor for free. 

To keep up-to-date with the progress we’re making 

at the wastewater treatment plan, sign up to our 

regular e-newsletter at 

ccc.govt.nz/wastewaterfire 

If you have concerns about the smells, phone 

Environment Canterbury on 0800 765-588 or to 

report the odour on the Smelt It app, which you 

can download at 

smelt-it.web.app 

The fire at the Christchurch Wastewater Treatment plant was a 

catastrophic event and we’re very sorry that you have had to bear the 

brunt of the stench it has created. Please be assured we’re committed 

to removing the source of the odour as safely and quickly as possible.
