Battling demons, still
standing after 234km
• By Chris Barclay
SAM HARVEY was running
on adrenaline, undeterred by a
weeping calloused wound on a
big toe.
His two remaining closest
challengers in Christchurch’s
ground-breaking endurance test
were running on empty, as darkness
fell over Spencer Park.
It was no stroll on the beach for
Harvey and 118 other competitors
in the Krayzie Midwinter Backyard
Ultra, the first time the ‘last
man standing’ format had been
staged in the city.
Harvey achieved that exalted
status, 28 hours 41 minutes and
28 seconds after the field tackled
their first 6.706km loop from
7.30am on July 2.
The 29-year-old Sumner-based
ultra distance athlete ultimately
completed 35 loops, one more
than Queenstown’s Brandon
Purdie and Dunedin’s John
Bayne.
Harvey had the relative
luxury of coasting to the finish
the following night, in spite of
needing running repairs deep
into his 234.85km journey.

Goughs
Bay
residents
feel let
down
• By Jean Edwards
RESIDENTS IN Goughs Bay
believe community leaders
deserted them when they needed
urgent support, following
torrential rain in December.
The event caused widespread
damage, cutting the small
isolated community off after the
only road into the bay was washed
away.
The summer storm caused chaos
for the small community, and
an event inquiry has acknowledged
several areas of improvement
for the city council in how it
responds to emergencies.
The report said it took about a
week for civil defence to set up an
emergency operations centre after
the deluge.
Local resident Marie Haley said
the community felt let down.
“We’re still battling this. We’re
still trying to get a phone line,
we’re still trying to be heard that
we need some sort of cellphone
coverage and that’s part of the fact
that their (council) response was
so slow.”

from the editor’s desk
KRAYSIE IS the right word
to describe the ultra run Sam
Harvey competed in a couple
of weeks ago (see page 1).
The Sumner-based athlete
was the last man standing
of the 119 competitors after
running 234.85km over 28
hours 41 minutes and 28
seconds in a loop circuit
around Spencer Park.
That’s a long way over a long
time.
Giving up was never an
option.
“It’s better to just go slow,
take it easy and not damage
your body too much.”
Harvey completed 35 loops,
battling through the pain of
skin which ripped off a toe.
“I thought: ‘This could be
my race over’ but I came into
the race base, ripped my shoe
off, wrapped it up and got
back out there.”
Crazy.

Mt Pleasant resident recalls meeting
assassinated Japan prime minister
• By Tim Fulton
TRIBUTE: David Bolam-Smith with former Japan Prime
Minister Shinzo Abe.
A MEMORIAL to 28 Japanese
who died in the February 22,
2011, earthquake will now
forever remind David Bolam-
Smith of the assassination of
Japan’s former Prime Minister
Shinzo Abe.
Representing the sister city
group, Christchurch Kurashiki
Sister City Committee, Bolam-
Smith, of Mt Pleasant, met Abe
in 2014 when he visited the
Kahikatea Earthquake Memorial
Sculpture in the Transitional
Cathedral.
The 28 Japanese students
killed in the collapse of the CTV
building were the largest number
of foreign citizens lost in the
disaster.
Abe flew from Auckland
from Christchurch for the
commemoration, riding in a
convoy of 22 cars, including
bodyguards. At the cathedral he
and his wife met Bolam-Smith
and the Dean of ChristChurch
Cathedral at the time, Lynda
Patterson.
Operating under “lockdown”
security precautions, a small
group including Bolam-Smith
honoured all Christchurch’s
quake victims by placing of a pohutukawa
twig on the Kahikatea
sculpture and offering prayers for
the dead.
“I offered Prime Minister Abe
and his wife a twig each and gave
them him the opportunity to
pray for his people, which he did,
very graciously. And his wife did
as well.”
Bolam-Smith, a business
owner who says he brought the
first sushi to Christchurch, has
been fostering cross-cultural ties
between Japan and the city for
30 years with the committee. He
has been to Japan more than 70
times, firstly on an overseas trip
investigating technology for the
Christchurch Star. He met his
wife Junko on that visit and has
loved the country ever since.
He said Abe’s assassination was
a shock, especially because Japan
is so peaceful. “He was very
friendly and very gracious and
over the years, into his second
term as prime minister. Abe san
has been part of my Japanese
life for a long, long time. And to
have that happen, it was hard to
believe when my wife said he’s
been shot.”
Abe’s act of remembrance
nearly a decade ago continues
at the cathedral every February
22, with the placing of a basket
of pohutukawa at the base of the
Kahikatea sculpture.
Bolam-Smith worked with embassy
officials and the Japanese
community, including bereaved,
to commission the sculpture after
the February 22, 2011, quake.
The memorial was first
displayed at Christ’s College
Chapel in 2012, on the first quake
anniversary. It was the first time
that bereaved Japanese family
members had gathered together
in Christchurch.
“The Kahikatea tree grows in
the swampy ground and they
normally grow in clumps. Their
‘It was hard to believe
when my wife said he’s
been shot’
– David Bolam-Smith
roots are intertwined and quite
often their branches are intertwined
to give them stability in
the wind. That represented the
parents that gathered together,
getting strength from each other.
And the peak at the top of the
sculpture represents, in Maori
culture, the spirits depart from
the highest point, the ice cap
Mt Cook and the prayers – the
spirits depart through the purity
of water in Japan,” Bolam-Smith
said.
The grieving Japanese parents
asked whether an identical sculpture
could be made for them back
home. Bolam-Smith and other
members of the Christchurch
Kurashiki Sister City Committee
set to work again, commissioning
a “twin” installed at central
Japan’s Toyoma College of Foreign
Languages. The language
academy lost 12 students in the
collapse of the CTV building.
Christchurch has a permanent
population of about 3000
Japanese.
A local financial advisor with
specialist KiwiSaver knowledge
Gerard Walsh of GMW Financial Services started
investing 35 years ago. For the last eight years his
business has involved providing quality financial advice
to individuals and businesses about KiwiSaver.
“When KiwiSaver started in 2007,” Gerard says, “I was
working for a large bank. In those days, that was where
most KiwiSaver accounts were held. However, it seemed
that bank staff often knew less about KiwiSaver than
most of the customers. New members to KiwiSaver
often received either no advice, or even worse, the wrong
advice.”
He says while the bank employed financial advisers, he
felt they were only interested in dealing with customers
that had large sums to invest.
“They were selling a product. Then, soon after KiwiSaver
started, the Global Financial Crisis happened. It was
clear from customer behaviour during that time
that most people didn’t know what to do and didn’t
understand the nature of their Kiwisaver investment.
“So, after 20 years working in banking and finance, in
2014 I decided to set up my own business as a specialist
KiwiSaver adviser.
“I have had some fantastic experiences with New
Zealanders over this time – everything from helping
teenagers build good financial habits, helping people
into first, and second homes, to assisting older Kiwis to
achieve comfortable retirements.”
After spending eight years providing financial advice to
Kiwis, Gerard says there is very little he doesn’t know
about KiwiSaver. He notes that since Covid-19 first hit in
2020, many KiwiSaver investors have experienced some
volatility in their KiwiSaver balances, which is giving
them serious concerns. Therefore, in these times, the
need for quality financial advice is even more important.
Here, Gerard answers questions people have been
asking about their KiwiSaver accounts.
How do I ensure I am getting the best results
from my KiwiSaver?
Obtain professional advice from a qualified
Financial Advice Provider – at no cost and no
obligation. There are many important decisions
that make a huge difference to the performance of
your KiwiSaver.
How much should I contribute?
If you are employed you can choose to contribute three,
four, six, eight or 10 per cent of your wages or salary.
If you are not employed or are self-employed you can
choose how much you wish to contribute.
What fund type is the best for my circumstances?
As a KiwiSaver member, you can choose which type of
fund suits your personal situation best. Generally, the
ideal fund type depends on your investment timeframe
and your personal risk profile.
What, if any, changes should I make when I turn 55,
60, 65 ,70...?
As you get older, your financial circumstances often
change and it’s important to evaluate whether your
KiwiSaver is still fit for purpose.
Should I take action when:
- my balances drops?
- I lose my job or income?
- I go overseas?
- I get a pay rise/cut?
Many people are unsure what to do with their KiwiSaver
in these circumstances. The action you should take is
get some professional advice from a Licensed Financial
Advice Provider.
When can I access my funds and how?
Generally, to purchase your first home and when you
turn 65.
What happens if I die?
KiwiSaver is part of your estate.
What are the incentives?
Employers and the government are required to
contribute to your KiwiSaver, subject to conditions.
How do I ensure my funds are invested ethically?
There are ways to ensure that your funds are invested
according to your values.
What fees am I paying and are they value for
money?
Fees vary considerably between different providers and
funds.
I am over 65. Can I still invest in KiwiSaver? Are
there any benefits?
Yes and yes.

Adviser, (FSP 1002976) for a no

Pigeon Bay teenager in winning young
A PIGEON Bay teenager can
claim to be one of the best young
farmers in New Zealand – and
she is still at school.
Erin Humm and her
Christchurch Girls’ High School
team mate Amelia Ridgen have
taken out the title of the 2022
FMG Junior Young Farmers of
the Year.
Erin, from Pigeon Bay, and
Amelia, are boarders at CGHS.
They won a raft of prizes worth
more than $1700, and they also
topped the points in the face-off
competition.
They became just the second female
pair to win the coveted title.
The awards ceremony on
Friday capped off two days of
competition and a final bid for
points with the top four teams
competing head-to-head in a
buzzer style quiz.
Cameron Brans and Quinn
Redpath from Napier Boys’ High
School were named runner up
FMG Junior Young Farmers of
the Year. Third place went to another
pair of young women, Tia
Fowle and Renee Zwagerman,
ex Southland Girls’ High School
students.
Fourteen teams of two from
across the country travelled to
Whangārei for the junior final, a
contest for high school students.
Amelia and Erin were overwhelmed
and humbled by the
win and very proud that two
young women beat all the boys
to take the title.
“It’s pretty cool that we’re both
girls,” said Erin.
“It’s really empowering, it’s a
good boost to get into the industry
and it’s really encouraging,”
said Amelia.
The two 17-year-olds finish
school next year and plan to
do a bachelor of AgriScience at
Lincoln University.
It was their second grand final
after winning the exam section
last year.
This year, they battled through
a day of rain, bad weather and
modules involving kumara.
“I found parts of the farmlet
generally the toughest for me,
I had to rely on Erin for the
practical side of it a lot so it was
definitely a team effort,” Amelia
said.
Their advice for other young
women and girls was to just get
into it.
“The competition is so much
fun, we’ve done it every year and
never placed before till last year.
It’s just so much fun and you
learn so much and meet so many
new people, it’s great.”
The top two teams from all
seven New Zealand Young
Farmers’ regions qualified for the
grand final from their regional
final, held earlier in the year.

Contestants completed an
exam on Thursday before heading
into practical day on Friday.
They also had to present a
10-minute speech in front of
a panel of judges on one of
two topics: ‘does NZ have a
responsibility to the world to
keep increasing food production
to cater to the rising global
population, or technology has
changed how food is produced –
discuss the impact of food being
produced in a laboratory
as opposed being field
grown.’
The teams’ skills and
knowledge of the food and fibre
sector were tested through a
series of modules on practical
day, which included pre-use
checks on a quad bike and
securing a trailer, planting
and soil requirements to grow
kumara, matching wool traits
and samples, calf welfare
and humane disbudding,
reassembling a chainsaw
while using the correct safety
equipment and assembling a
watertight vessel to transport and
collect as much water as possible
to put out a ‘fire’.
They also went head-to-head in
a ‘farmlet’ challenge which they
had two hours to complete.
Teams had to construct a
footbridge across a waterway,
strong enough to hold a judge
walking across it. They were
also tested on their know-how
of riparian planting, and were
judged on their ability to identify
where and why a riparian strip
was required and how it should
be laid out and planted.
New Zealand Young Farmers
Chief Executive Lynda
Coppersmith said it was fantastic
to see high school students’
knowledge of the food and fibre
sector on full display.
“Firstly, I would like to say
a massive congratulations to
Amelia and Erin who are two
amazing young women and
so deserving of the title. I also
want to congratulate our other
place-getters and the rest of the
contestants who competed over
the last two days,” she said.
“New Zealand Young Farmers’
purpose is to excite young people
about all of the possibilities in
the food and fibre sector so it’s
great to see such an enthusiastic
bunch of winners who embody
the knowledge and innovation
needed to excel in such a diverse
industry.”
The seven FMG Young Farmer
of the Year grand finalists also
presented their speeches at the
awards ceremony, in front of a
crowd of 350, before their final
challenge at the evening show on
Saturday night.

Plan to protect future of
lower Heathcote River
A GUIDANCE plan outlining
the future focus of work to
improve the lower Ōpāwaho
Heathcote River has been
endorsed by the city council.
The lower Ōpāwaho Heathcote
River Guidance Plan provides a
framework for decision-making
and action along the river
corridor to restore and enhance
it.
The plan covers the area from
the Opawa Rd bridge to the
Ferrymead bridge.
Working party chair and
Linwood Ward city councillor
Yani Johanson said the
endorsement was recognition of
a collective community effort to
improve the river.
“The guidance
plan provides a

corridor aligned
with a cultural
framework,” he
said.
“It aims to get greater synergy
across council activities with
communities to improve the
ecology and water quality
of the river while providing
environmental and recreational
benefits for generations to come.
“I’d like to acknowledge with
appreciation the contribution
of the working party members,
council staff and the community
board in developing the plan.”
Johanson said the plan gives
present and future community
boards, council and community
groups a “big picture” framework
from which to advocate for
projects and funding over time.

Frontline Midwife : My Story of Survival and
Keeping Others Safe
by anna Kent
This is a story of women in crisis, seen through the eyes of a remarkable midwife
‘My own suffering, my own loneliness, was a fair price to pay for the lives we’d saved.
And now here I am, training to be a midwife, so that next time I can make it better.’
Anna Kent has delivered babies in war zones, caring for the most vulnerable women in the
most vulnerable places in the world. In Frontline Midwife, Kent shares her extraordinary
experiences as a nurse, midwife and mother, illuminating the lives of women that are
irreparably affected by compromised access to healthcare. This is at once an astonishing
story of the realities of frontline humanitarian work, and a powerful reminder of the critical,
life-giving work of nurses and doctors at home and around the world.

The Whalebone Theatre
by Joanna Quinn
Cristabel Seagrave has always wanted her life to be a story, but there are no girls in
the books in her dusty family library. For an unwanted orphan who grows into an
unmarriageable young woman, there is no place at all for her in a traditional English
manor. But from the day that a whale washes up on the beach at the Chilcombe estate
in Dorset, and twelve-year-old Cristabel plants her flag and claims it as her own, she is
determined to do things differently.
As Cristabel and her siblings, Flossie and Digby grow to adulthood and war approaches,
their lives are jolted on to very different tracks, it becomes clear that the roles they are
expected to play are no longer those they want. As they find themselves drawn into the
conflict, they must each find a way to write their own story...

The 6:20 Man
by david Baldacci
A journey that took him to hell...Having survived combat tours in Afghanistan and Iraq and
been decorated with medals, Travis Devine mysteriously leaves the Army under a cloud of
suspicion. And at thirty-two years old, he’s swapping fighting the Taliban and Al Qaeda for
a different kind of danger in the cut-throat world of high finance.
His daily commute on the 6.20 a.m. train into New York’s financial district, to his new job
as an analyst at the minted powerhouse investment bank Cowl and Comely, takes him
into a world where greed, power, jealousy and ambition result in the financial abuse of the
masses and the enrichment of an elite few. But it is on this daily journey that he passes a
house where he sees something that sounds alarm signals he cannot ignore. As he digs
deeper, he discovers strange coincidences and unnerving truths, he must question who he
can trust and who he must fight.

Community ‘deserted’ after storm
REPAIR: Good progress is being made on the repair of Goughs Bay Rd, pictured here in
the wake of December’s storm.

• From page 1
There was no recognition of
how life-threatening the situation
was at the time, she said.
A total of 18 areas of
improvement in council’s
emergency response were
outlined in its report.
Issues around communication
were highlighted, with some
residents describing the response
as appalling.
Sandie Stewart speculated that
some staff may have checked out,
a fortnight out from Christmas.
“Maybe some of the people
who were able to make a difference
chose Christmas lunch
over getting a hold of the phone
company and getting the phones
back up on track,” she said.
“Or sending down a generator
to see if the Wi-Fi was working.”
Not having a direct line to residents
should have sparked red
flags for emergency responders,
she said.
Although there are ongoing
issues with phone coverage in the
bay, residents are happy with the
progress reinstating Goughs Rd.
Complaints were raised by
locals at a community meeting
in Akaroa in May which fed into
council’s review.
George Masefield hoped
the council had learned some
lessons.
“I just hope it’s not put in the
bloody drawer and left and forgotten
about it,” he said.
Deputy Mayor
Andrew Turner
said officials
underestimated
the gravity of the
situation.
“Save for a number
of phone calls,
coming through
to the call centre,
the detail of the
Andrew
Turner
event perhaps wasn’t as apparent
as it might have been,” he said.
He added there remained
ongoing concerns around the
communication infrastructure of
the peninsula.
City council’s civil defence
emergency manager Brenden
Winder said council needed to
be more proactive around communication.
Winder said he acknowledged
the disappointment of residents,
but there were other factors
including resourcing at the time
of the event.
He said improvements have
been made within the unit and
it was looking at how it engages
with communities, in more rural
areas in future. —RNZ

Awards provide many benefits
LOCALS HELPING locals is
what we do, chair of the Sumner-
Ferrymead Foundation, Jane
Paterson said.
Speaking at the recent awards
function for the winners of a
range of scholarships, she spoke
of the history of the trust and
how the scholarships awarded
were an innovation.
With further innovation in
mind, this year we gave two new
rewards – the first of the new
awards was for study in commerce.
This was sponsored by FANZ
(the investment advice arm
of SBS Bank). The award was
for $2500, but perhaps just as
valuable to the recipient was the
10-week paid internship with
FANZ.
The winner was Tom Jones
who is currently pursuing a
BCom at Otago University. Tom
will take up the internship at the
end of the year and it appears
that FANZ and SBS Bank will
have plenty for him to do.
The second new award was
for apprenticeships. This award
is to help young people with
the cost of tools which have to
be purchased at the beginning
of an apprenticeship. This year
we awarded $1800 each to two
apprentice builders, Riley Matla
and Ben Giles which was sponsored
by Allan Williams (the
Graham Duston and Kelly McNamara from FANZ with Tom
Hart, recipient of the FANZ scholarship with internship.
foundation patron). Two awards
were given because we simply
could not separate Ben and Riley
in terms of worthiness.
In addition to these awards, we
gave scholarships to help people
in three fields of study as we did
last year – humanities (Sarah
Angelo who is studying to become
a teacher while she works
at Mt Pleasant School); science
(Noah Lewis who is studying
computer science and linguistics
at Canterbury University) and
life sciences Feya Durkin (who
is studying biomedical science at
Victoria University). All of these
awards were for $5000.
These awards were most kindly
sponsored by oral surgeons RJ
Begg, Viki Brinkman in memory
of Richard Brinkman, and Viv
Cotter in memory of Michael
McMullen.
An award was also made
for assistance for an Outward
Bound course. This is a $5000
scholarship to attend the 21-day
leadership programme and was
sponsored (again) by SBS Bank.
The recipient is Ella Lewis who
is a cycle safety teacher and surf
instructor.
Finally, the winner of the environment
award was Te Awa Kura
Barnett Park who were given
Te Ara Kura Barnett Park, recipients of the environment
and sustainability award.
$3000 to go towards an assessment
of the ecological, cultural
and social values of the Barnett
Park valley.
All recipients of awards have
deep roots in the foundation’s
area, Sumner-Ferrymead.
The panel that met with the
applicants was effusive in their
praise for the quality of the applicants.
We had significantly more
applications this year and are
confident that the scholarship
programme will grow further in
the future.
As Sarah Angelo said in
thanks to the Brinkman
family’s generosity, she can now
concentrate on her studies rather
than the financial pressures.

recipient of the science
scholarship.

Giving up was never an option
• From page 1
“When I was going through
that little moment of softness,
I think it was the 180km
mark,” he said, “a callus on
my big toe came away, I had a
chunk of flesh rubbing in my
shoe.
“I thought: ‘This could be
my race over’ but I came into
the race base, ripped my shoe
off, wrapped it up and got back
out there.
“There was no pain. I
thought: ‘You marvellous
bastard, you’ve fixed it’ and I
just kept on with the positive
self-talk. I found my groove
and it was my race from then
as far as I’m concerned,” he
said.
While supreme fitness
was obviously a prerequisite,
Harvey was fortified – and
hamstrung – by a 10th place
finish in the Southern Sydney
24 Hour Ultra a month earlier,
winning the mind games was
also essential.
“I think if you endure a
lifetime of suffering or mental
hardships it prepares you very
well for this,” he said.
“I battled with some demons
in the night, especially on
Sunday morning. Going into
it with the rig already busted
up and broken down (from
Sydney) gave me a pretty good
handicap.
“The voices in your head
start saying: ‘You’re not good
enough or maybe it wouldn’t
be so bad if you quit. Your
family will still love you’ that
sort of s**t.’”
Giving up was never an
option for Harvey, who
managed to rehydrate at
the end of each circuit after
making sure to conserve
enough energy as rivals
wilted.
“It’s better to just go slow,
take it easy and not damage
your body too much and have
a short rest at the end of
each lap.”
Runners had an hour to
complete each loop, giving
Harvey a manageable target.
“Because this course was so
much flatter I buttoned back
and did my casual 52-minute
loops and let the bravado boys
carry on doing their 45-minute
loops, which ended up
stinging them.”
Harvey’s next assignment
is the New Zealand leg of
the Backyard Ultra world
championships in October,
where 15-strong teams from
each country compete on their
home track at the same time.
Although a team event,

each country’s lead runner is
rewarded with entry in the
2023 Backyard Ultra world
championships in the United
States.
Harvey completed his first
‘last man standing’ event in
Auckland last year, though
his interest in long distance
running goes back further to
his teenage years.
“I played rugby and I did
boxing and triathlon. They
require running and that’s the
thing I’m actually best at so
that was my focus,” he said.
“All roads led back to
running.”

New work campaign to empower women
AN INITIATIVE to empower
women to join the city’s labour
market has launched in a bid to
counter a Covid-19-based lack
of skilled migrants boosting the
local economy.
ChristchurchNZ, the city
council’s sustainable economic
development agency, developed
PowerUp after Statistics New
Zealand’s household labour force
survey data estimated 20,000
local women could re-enter the
workforce if supplied with the
necessary advice and support.
Designed as an information
hub to connect women with
employment and career
opportunities, PowerUp also
stemmed from a skilled migrant
advocacy paper ChristchurchNZ
and the Canterbury Employers’
Chamber of Commerce
delivered to the Government in
April.
It requested an increase in
skilled migration as the impacts
of an extreme skilled labour
shortage applied the brakes to
Canterbury’s economic growth.
“The campaign was a direct
result of businesses crying out
for more staff and the enormous
untapped potential of attracting
more women into the workforce,”
said ChristchurchNZ
chief executive Ali Adams.
“Our research has shown that
practical adjustments, such as
flexible working arrangements
or meaningful roles, can be
real drivers for women when
choosing employment.”
The campaign runs
until November and will
be followed by contact
with potential employers
to equip them with the
right information to
provide, said Adams, “an
attractive and supportive
workplace”.
PowerUp features
Claire French
expert advice from career
coach Claire French and
information
on regional
support agencies,
networks and
opportunities.
There’s
templates for
cover letters and
CVs plus videos
of four women
sharing their
new career journeys.
Dale Jackson, one of the case
studies, owned her own
gym and worked as a
postie, drug tester and
on the Covid-19 helpline
before her current role
in customer service at
Datacom.
She said barriers such
as a lack of confidence,
Dale Jackson
information overload
and a lack of coherent,
HUB: An initiative designed
to help Christchurch
women re-enter the
workforce, PowerUp
connects women with

opportunities.
PHOTO: GETTY
trustworthy resources are
preventing many women from
taking the next step in their
career journey.
“I think as females we are
tough on ourselves and that
makes job hunting hard. But
now I know I can rise above
that. We are stronger and braver
than we think and know way
more than what we think. So just
believe in yourself. If you can’t
believe in yourself, then how can
anyone else?” she said.
Events will also be a key
component of the campaign as
ChristchurchNZ plans forums to
inform women on high-demand
sectors, such as tech, and
facilitates networking with other
women, employers and support
agencies.
ChristchurchNZ marketing
manager business Kylie Yardley
said a women in tech seminar
was being planned for the city’s
ethic communities, with details
to be added to the website.

Treasures from the past:
Sprinting to the Pole
ON NEW Year’s Day 1908,
crowds gathered at the Lyttelton
wharf to bid farewell and
Godspeed to the Irishman
Ernest Shackleton and his valiant
crew aboard their venerable
41-year-old schooner, Nimrod.
Setting sail for Antarctica,
five years after he had returned
exhausted from Captain Scott’s
Discovery expedition, Shackleton
was determined to be the first
man to set reach the South Pole.
To make this privately funded
dream happen, he had sailed
from London, assembled a largely
inexperienced crew that included
scientists and engineers,
and acquired 10 Manchurian
ponies and nine dogs, trained
on Ōtamahua Quail Island
(depicted above). You might also
notice the curious addition of an
automobile – yes, Shackleton was
the first to introduce mechanised
transport to Antarctic exploration,
in the first decade of the
twentieth century no less.
The vehicle had been specially
modified for the Antarctic expedition
by engineers from the Arrol-Johnston
Car Company Ltd,
of Paisley, Scotland. The Scottish
company had manufactured
Britain’s first automobile in 1895,
and the world’s first ‘off-road’
vehicle. Their Antarctic car was
an alcohol-fuelled air-cooled
version of their 1905 model,
with a 3023cc 4-stroke engine
in a 2-cylinder opposed piston
configuration, on a strengthened
chassis and capable of producing
12bhp at 800rpm and 15bhp at
1100rpm. Modifications had
been made to the exhaust system
that was used to heat the carburettor
as well as the driver, while
the front wheels were fitted with
removable skis for the snowy
conditions, as well as light or
heavy duty tyres.
The vehicle was donated by
the majority shareholder of
Arrol-Johnston, the Scottish industrialist
William Beardmore,
Shackleton’s
1908 Nimrod
expedition to
the Antarctic.

a major sponsor of Shackleton’s
expedition. Much was expected
of this largely untested vehicle,
although perhaps its greatest
achievement was in marketing,
with the pre-expedition hype in
Autocar magazine making the
dubious but popular claim “there
would be a fair chance of sprinting
to the pole.”
The vehicle was housed in
a crate on the Nimrod’s deck
owing to a lack of space on
the rather small vessel, with a
sceptical Shackleton preferring
to bring as many ponies and
dogs as possible. On board was a
young Arrol-Johnston engineer
by the name of Bernard Day,
who would go down in history
as the world’s first Antarctic
Nimrod preparing to depart
Lyttelton Port for the
Antarctic.

mechanical engineer.
On arrival, the car was
set down on the sea ice in
loose snow to help set up the
first camp. While the engine
started up fine enough, it
became obvious that the heavy
wheels were largely useless in
the soft snow. In spite of this
inauspicious start, once Day
gained some driving experience,
the Arrol-Johnston proved
handy in transporting men,
stores and equipment, making
numerous small journeys pulling
500kg sleds in temperatures as
low as -10 degrees centigrade.
This work included setting stores
for David, Mackay and Mawson’s
successful bid for the magnetic
South Pole.
While Day claimed to have
driven about 500 miles (800km)
in total, the car wasn’t used for
Shackleton’s bid for the South
Pole, which relied instead on
the ponies and dogs. Famously,
caught in terrible blizzards some
97 miles (156km) from their
goal, his party turned back.
Nevertheless, Shackleton
was feted for his courage and
scientific exploits, with his
efforts setting the standard for
future Antarctic exploration. The
Arrol-Johnston car was last seen
outside Messrs Hawkes and Son’s
garage in Lyttelton in April 1909,
before it was allegedly shipped to
the “English Museum” in Britain
a couple of months later, and
never seen again.

NEWS
A TRAPPING project on
Kaitōrete Spit is helping
reduce the number of animal
pests across 5000 hectares of
biodiversity-rich land.
Representatives from 14 agencies,
organisations and rūnanga
that established Pest Free Banks
Peninsula (PFBP) recently spent
a day on the spit – the stretch of
land that separates Te Waihora /
Lake Ellesmere from the Pacific
Ocean – to see the progress being
made on the current focus
area.
The project is part of a wider
aim to eliminate pests from
the entire Peninsula by 2050.
The shorter-term objective is
to better manage key threats
such as possums across 28,000
hectares in The Wildside and
to eliminate mustelids (ferrets,
stoats and weasels), feral cats and
hedgehogs from Kaitōrete.
About 230 traps – a mix of
kill traps, Holden traps, and
live capture traps – have been
distributed across the spit.
Hundreds of hedgehogs, 15
feral cats, 20 weasels and five
ferrets have been captured since
the first of the traps were laid in
March.
Technology is a key part of
the project’s efficiency. When a
pest is caught, a node on top of
the trap reports back to a ‘hub’,
alerting the field staff. This
minimises the amount of time
that staff need to spend checking
the traps.
Some $10.11 million in funding
has been allocated to the
wider PFBP programme over
five years. Half of that has come
from Predator Free 2050 Ltd,
and Environment Canterbury
contributes $600,000 annually.
Other key contributors include
Christchurch City Council,
Selwyn District Council, Department
of Conservation, Rod
Donald Banks Peninsula Trust,
Summit Road Society, and the
Banks Peninsula Conservation

Trust, which administers PFBP.
PFBP project
manager Sarah
Wilson says in
the scheme of
things, the team
is just getting
started.
“It’s taken us
a wee while to
train the staff,
Sarah
Wilson
get the equipment, and get the
knowledge about how to move
forward, but now we’re really
beginning to shift gear.”
Wilson says that while
Kaitōrete is probably a
little-known area for many
Cantabrians, it’s very important
in terms of its insect life. The spit
provides habitat for more than
100 species of moths – including
five that are flightless – plus
various beetles, lizards and birds,
and the katipō spider.
“From a pest control
perspective, it’s sort of a coalition
of opportunity. The shape of
the land makes it easy to work
on, and then you’ve got this
biodiversity that is possible to
renew here.”
PFBP works closely with Te
Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu and the
five Papatipu Rūnanga who
whakapapa to the Peninsula.
They’re on PFBP’s governance
board and are involved with
all operations, including
trapping.
As PFBP project oversight
group chair Mark Christensen
points out, the trapping work is
just one aspect of the long-term
ecological vision for Banks
Peninsula.
“The vision has eight
interrelated goals – one of those
is about being pest-free. The
other seven are also around
bringing back indigenous
biodiversity – whether it’s
vegetation or birds. The whole
idea of the pest free vision is to
reduce that pest pressure so that
we can restore the biodiversity,
which in turn, will also help our
economy to flourish.”
PFBP project management
group chair David Miller was
among those who attended the
recent site visit, and enjoyed
getting an up-close look at
the “interesting and novel”
technology.
“The scale of what we’re
attempting is very impressive –
especially given the fact we have
limited resources tied to specific
target species. But we have
fantastic field staff and every
reason to be hopeful, given what
they’ve been able to achieve
so far.”

HOME CHRISTCHURCH LIMITED, LICENSED REAA 2008

26 Bay Harbour News Wednesday July 13 2022
74A MONCKS SPUR ROAD | REDCLIFFS
6 CANON STREET | SOLD
This beautiful villa has been brought back to life by Stella Construction.
The goal was to keep as much of the original character and charm but
uplift the HOME, making it more modern and covenant for the next owner.
With the property facing North West, it captures all-day sun and naturally
warms the HOME. With the new kitchen opening into the lounge area, it’s
the perfect place to relax and unwind.
The HOME at 6 Canon Street was an instant hit online, reaching over
40,352 potential buyers wanting to set down roots in the popular suburb
of St Albans. Our vendors chose to set a deadline for the sale and on the
very first day we had enquiries rolling in fast.
After only two open homes we had a suitable offer to bring the deadline
date forward and a new owner anticipating that all-important moving day.
The vendors were thrilled when their HOME sold for $725,000, a total of
$365,000 above GV!
We can highlight the benefit of Christchurch living better than any other
company. Whether it be to use your existing home as leverage to
complete the renovation you have dreamed of, purchase an investment or
holiday home, or merely know what you’re sitting on for your retirement.
Whatever your plans are, we are here to help you on your journey
whenever you may need us. For friendly, genuine advice, contact a HOME
specialist today.
