MESHOW 

HONOURED: The coronation of King Charles III will be commemorated on Saturday with a tree planting day at Bridgestone Reserve (Papanui Bush). 

Thousands of natives have already been planted at the reserve by volunteers, including school pupils. 

A tree for King Charles III 

PAPANUI will commemorate 

the coronation of King Charles 

III on Saturday at 10am, 

with Mayor Phil Mauger 

planting a rimu tree in 

Bridgestone Reserve/Papanui 

Bush. 

He will be accompanied 

by Christchurch Central MP 

Duncan Webb, Waipapa 

Papanui-Innes-Central 

Community Board members, 

Rotarians and some of the 

countless volunteers who 

have planted native trees and 

shrubs throughout the reserve, 

Papanui Rotary spokesperson 

Jenny Haworth said. 

They will also inspect the 

nearly finished all-weather 

path. This will give wheelchair 

access to the bush – an 

important factor, as the reserve 

borders the new Cancer Society 

accommodation centre and 

the BrainTree Wellness Centre, 

Haworth said. 

She said the bush is quickly 

becoming a place to rest, reflect 

and be rejuvenated. 

Thousands of native trees 

and shrubs have already been 

planted in the bush, which runs 

through a drainage area from 

Langdons Rd to Sawyers Arms 

Rd. 

Haworth said the planting 

started six years ago as a 

Papanui Rotary initiative, with 

support from the city council. 

The project is led by Denis 

McMurtrie. 

Hundreds of hours have been 

spent by teams of volunteers 

planting the native trees and 

shrubs. Over time, the project 

has involved many community 

groups, which have supported 

the planting through funding 

and volunteer hours. 

Haworth said the reserve is 

already attracting native birds. 

It has also become a valuable 

tool to teach schools and 

community groups about the 

original ecology of the area 

before the trees were felled to 

build Christchurch. 

Saturday will be a 

community day of action at the 

reserve, with planting before 

and after the ceremony. 

• Papanui Bush 

community planting 

day is on Saturday from 

9am-12.30pm. For more

Kiri and Lou explore what 

it means to be a child 

THE ANIMATED stars of 

an award-winning children’s 

television show will explore 

what it means to be a child in a 

new library exhibition. 

City council head of libraries 

and information Carolyn 

Robertson said ‘Kiri and Lou 

at the Library’, which opens on 

Saturday at Tūranga’s Te Pito 

Huarewa/Southbase Gallery, 

will showcase the locally-made 

stop motion series. 

“Immerse yourself within 

the Ōtautahi-created series 

and sit and savour the world of 

claymation with your whānau 

for a while,” said Robertson. 

“Explore the indoor forest 

environment in the gallery, curl 

up with a pukapuka (book) 

and take part in interactive 

activities and more within the 

sights and sounds of the forest.” 

The exhibition runs until 

October 22 and will feature 

activities for children of all 

ages, with an exclusive new 

animation and behind-thescenes 

production video. 

The short animation film, 

A Peaceful Moment, will be 

played on the big screen after 

it was specially created for the 

exhibition. 

“There will also be a chance 

to take an up-close look at 

the Kiri and Lou characters 

and a sneak peek into the 

early concept sketches of how 

the series came to life,” said 

Robertson. 

A variety of activities, 

including stories with Kiri 

herself, papercraft and a 

themed scavenger hunt, will 

also be offered this weekend. 

“The highlight of the 

exhibition opening is having 

Olivia Tennet, the real-life voice 

of Kiri, read to our tamariki 

and let their imaginations run 

wild,” Robertson said. 

The exhibition will have 

strong literacy elements, such 

as storytime sessions. 

IMMERSED: Kiri and Lou at the Library opens at Tūranga 

on Saturday. Below – Kiri and Lou animation director 

Dale Hayward and Poppy put the exhibition together.

Connecting city and seaside 

One of eastern 

Christchurch’s most 

rundown bridges will 

soon get a makeover. 

Brian Donovan from 

the New Brighton 

Residents Association 

reports on what is 

happening 

with the 

Pages Rd 

bridge, and 

delves into 

the history 

of bridges 

in the area 

WE ARE not far from seeing 

the concept plans for the new 

Pages Rd bridge, out for public 

submission in July-August. 

This will be one of the most 

important constructions for 

the east in many years and will 

shape the design of the immediate 

roads in and around it – and 

will possibly incorporate a welcome 

sculpture. 

As well as pushing the 

case for our locals, the New 

Brighton Residents Association 

occasionally dabbles in a bit 

of lightweight history about 

the area. Here, we feature local 

bridges feeding people into the 

coastal suburb from the time the 

first European settlement ships 

arrived in Lyttelton. 

Seaview Rd or Pages Rd 

bridge 

A route was put through by the 

privately owned New Brighton 

Tramway Company. Horse trams 

ran from Christchurch to New 

Brighton between 1887 and 1905, 

after which the Christchurch 

Tramway Board took over and 

electrified the line. 

At the entrance a gate 

reinforced the company’s 

ownership of the structure, 

where a toll was collected for a 

short time before it became a 

public thoroughfare. 

The company’s line was later 

opened as a public road, Pages 

Rd, named after tramway 

company director, Joshua Page 

(1826-1900). 

The original Seaview or Pages 

Rd bridge was a flat bridge. It 

was replaced at the beginning 

of the 1930s by the present high 

bridge. This was designed by H. 

F. Toogood, father of television 

personality Selwyn “money or 

the bag” Toogood. 

The hump in the bridge 

came at the behest of Richard 

Bedward Owen, a tailor and 

conservationist, known as ‘River 

Bank Owen’, who argued that 

REPLACEMENT: Concept 

plans for the new Pages 

Rd bridge will be out for 

public submission in July.

boats could come ‘sailing or 

steaming with the tide’ via the 

Estuary to Christchurch. They 

never have, but there are plans 

to run wakas to New Brighton 

via the Ōtākaro/Avon River 

Corridor. 

Bower bridge 

Bower bridge by the Bower 

Tavern first opened in 1876 

(right). The present Bower bridge 

was completed in 1942. 

In the 1920s and 1930s the 

inter-city bus service pioneered 

transport on Wainoni Rd, across 

the Bower bridge to North New 

Brighton and New Brighton. 

It was a private service, very 

popular and cheap, and ran on 

the smell of an oily rag. It was 

managed and owned by Intercity 

Motors with headquarters on 

Bowhill Rd. 

The bus company was 

in competition with the 

Christchurch Tramway Board’s 

trams on the Pages Rd route 

and developed into a ‘bus war’. 

Trams and buses would try to 

beat each other to pick up the 

next passenger, a far cry from 

bus driver shortages and cuts in 

services today.

A brief history of bridges out east 

residents the long journey up to 

Central Brighton. The present 

bridge was opened in 1981. 

• From page 5 

South Brighton bridge, 

Bridge St 

Opened in 1927, it was the 

result of the work of New 

Brighton Borough councillor, 

Herbert Arundel Glasson. 

Glasson lived in South 

Brighton and persuaded fellow 

residents to pay extra rates to the 

New Brighton Borough Council, 

providing a South Brighton 

bridge was built. 

The resulting small wooden 

bridge saved South Brighton 

Estuary bridge 

Who has crossed this bridge ? 

Nobody, as the Estuary 

bridge has never been built despite 

proposals and plans by various 

people over the years. 

James Mawson Stewart (1883- 

1949) was born in New South 

Wales and came with his family 

to Christchurch as a small boy. 

He began his working life as a 

clerk and later cashier at a venerable 

institution, the Christchurch 

Gas Company. 

While still a young man, he 

set up the firm of accountants, 

Stewart Beckett and Co. He went 

on to earn the reputation as ‘one 

of the best-known businessmen 

in Christchurch’. 

In his youth, Stewart and his 

brother Arthur bached at New 

Brighton, and retained a commercial 

interest in the area. 

During World War 1, they were 

major figures in the South New 

Brighton Land Company, which 

consisted of small shareholders, 

and the Southshore Syndicate, 

whose members were substantial 

businessmen. 

The two companies bought the 

wasteland where the suburb of 

Southshore now stands and sold 

it at a low price. It was stipulated 

that every purchaser of a section 

should donate 15 pounds towards 

the cost of a bridge to take people 

across the Estuary to Sumner. 

Seven hundred pounds was 

collected, plans drawn up and a 

track – the future Rockinghorse 

Rd – hacked out of the wilderness. 

Amid the battles of trying to 

find investors, residents on the 

Redcliffs/Moncks Bay side were 

less enthusiastic about hordes of 

‘uncouth’ travellers coming from 

New Brighton. 

After the war, the company and 

syndicate were wound up as momentum 

waned. James continued 

to hope that the area might 

progress, and in 1927 attempted 

DESIGN: New 

Brighton 

Residents 

Association’s 

concept 

sculpture 

for the new 

Pages Rd 

bridge. 

to persuade the Government the 

bridge should be erected at public 

expense. 

The property owners became 

very disillusioned with the 

outcome and many sold up and 

moved on. 

However, the new Pages Rd 

bridge will be delivering greater 

numbers of people in and out of 

the wider coastal area. 

The New Brighton Residents 

Association has tossed in a few 

concept ideas for a sculpture 

signifying entry into our coastal 

paradise to get the ball rolling. 

Thanks to former librarian and 

historian Richard Greenaway for 

the bridge history.

Red and Black whitewash 

CONTEST: Christchurch under-18 Black’s wing defence 

makes an intercept during their win over Southland 

Country at the King’s Birthday tournament on Sunday. 

SUCCESS: The Christchurch under-16 Red and Black teams won all of their matches 

before meeting in the Tupuranga championship final on Monday. 

• By Jaime Cunningham 

CHRISTCHURCH have 

dominated the second edition of 

the Tupuranga under-16 netball 

championship. 

The A grade final was contested 

by two of the city’s representative 

teams with Christchurch 

Red taking out the top grade, 

beating Christchurch Black 29-16 

at Pioneer Stadium on Monday. 

Christchurch White won the B 

grade with a 33-27 victory over 

North Canterbury. 

The Red and Black teams both 

went through pool play unbeaten 

over the weekend before encountering 

each other in the final. 

The White team suffered only 

one loss all weekend, going down 

33-24 to Selwyn B. 

Christchurch Netball Centre 

development lead Julia van Dyk 

said the Tupuranga (meaning 

‘a place to grow’) championship 

“uses netball as the waka for 

our rangatahi to grow and learn 

together”. 

The three-day 

tournament was first 

played last year. It is 

primarily focused on 

the development of 

players who wouldn’t 

otherwise have opportunities 

to play in 

representative tournaments. 

Julia 

van Dyk 

It was part of a busy weekend 

for Christchurch Netball Centre 

with the annual under-18 King’s 

Birthday tournament played at 

Bishopdale YMCA on Sunday. 

Although there were no finals, 

the two under-18 Christchurch 

teams had some big wins and 

close losses. 

The under-18 Red team 

beat Central Lakes 35-20 and 

Marlborough 44-18, but lost to 

Invercargill (39-33) and Dunedin 

(48-35). 

Although the under-18 Black 

team only managed one win 

over Southland Country (37-21), 

they suffered close losses to 

Invercargill (29-27) and Central 

Lakes (25-23). 

Both under-18 teams will 

contest two tournaments later 

this month before heading to the 

Celebration Box Netball New 

Zealand under-18 championships 

in Hamilton from July 10-13, 

where Christchurch Red will 

defend their national title.

These winter warmers are full of flavour 

Make the most of the 

season’s richest flavour 

pairings with these two 

delicious double acts 

Return the balls to the pan, 

among the onions and figs, 

cover with a lid and bake for 30 

minutes. Spoon into bowls. 

Pork and halloumi balls 

Blackberry and apple 

trifles 

Mince lets us to take dinner 

in so many directions. With 

these meatballs, it is worth 

letting them rest for a while in 

the fridge after shaping, as they 

are less likely to fall apart during 

cooking. Turn them carefully 

in the pan, letting them form a 

golden crust on the base before 

moving them. Use a coarse 

grater for the halloumi, so the 

cheese melts and seasons the 

pork as it cooks. 

Serves 3-4 

Ingredients 

3 spring onions 

1 Tbsp and a little more of 

groundnut oil 

2 cloves garlic 

grated zest of 1 lemon 

2 small red chillies 

4g dried mint 

450g coarsely minced pork 

200g halloumi 

For the figs: 

2 medium onions 

2 Tbsp groundnut or olive oil, 

for frying 

1 Tbsp thyme leaves 

6 small figs 

TASTY: Follow up these hearty meatballs with a warming 

dessert made from in-season apples. PHOTOS: GETTY 

Directions 

Cut the spring onions into thin 

rounds, then cook them in the 

oil in a shallow pan for 5 minutes, 

until soft and translucent. 

Peel the garlic and crush to a 

paste, then stir into the spring 

onions. Add the grated zest and 

a generous grinding of salt and 

pepper. Finely chop the chillies, 

then add to the onions and mint 

and remove from the heat. 

Add the minced pork to the 

seasonings. Coarsely grate 

the halloumi, then add to the 

mixture and mix well. Shape the 

mixture into balls about the size 

of a golf ball and put in the fridge 

for 20 minutes. 

Warm the oil in a shallow 

nonstick pan, add some of the 

pork balls and let them colour 

one side then gently roll them 

and brown the other. Move the 

balls around from time to time 

to brown evenly, then transfer to 

an ovenproof dish. Repeat with 

the rest of the balls. 

Preheat the oven to 180 deg C. 

Peel and finely chop the onions, 

then add to the vacated pan, 

with a little more oil if necessary, 

and fry them for 10-12 minutes 

until they are starting to soften. 

Roughly chop the thyme, then 

add to the onions, then roughly 

chop the figs and also add them. 

Cook the apples using only a 

little water, letting them simmer 

to a soft and fluffy puree. Add 

the blackberries at the end, so 

they don’t overcook, mashing 

them a little so their juices lightly 

bleed into the apples. Give the 

sherry and orange juice a little 

time to soak into the sponge 

fingers to make sure they are 

thoroughly saturated. Like most 

trifles, the longer the layers of 

fruit, sponge and cream are 

together, the better the result. 

Serves 4 

Ingredients 

150g sponge fingers or ratafia 

biscuits (almond macaroons) 

80ml dry sherry 

Juice of 2 medium oranges 

For the apples: 

1.5kg cooking apples 

100ml water 

2 Tbsp caster sugar 

200g blackberries 

For the cream: 

150g double cream 

125g mascarpone 

1 Tbsp icing sugar 

A few drops of vanilla extract 

Directions 

Peel the apples and cut into 

large chunks. Put them in a nonreactive 

saucepan with the water 

and sugar, set over a moderate 

heat and bring to the boil. Lower 

the heat and leave for 10-15 

minutes, with the occasional stir, 

until the apples have become 

soft enough to mash to a puree. 

Stir in the blackberries and 

crush lightly with a fork. Lightly 

whip the cream until it starts to 

thicken. It should be just thick 

enough to slide off the spoon. 

Stir in the mascarpone, icing 

sugar and vanilla extract. 

Break up the sponge fingers 

and put them in the bottom of 

four large glasses or glass bowls. 

Mix together the sherry and 

orange juice, then pour over the 

sponge fingers and leave to soak 

in. 

Spoon the apple and 

blackberry mixture on top of the 

sponge. Place a spoonful of the 

mascarpone cream on top of the 

apple, leave for an hour in the 

fridge to settle before eating.

Volvo’s EV SUV– best of many worlds 

MY FIRST evaluation drive was 

in 1988. I remember it vividly, it 

was a five-cylinder petrol-fuelled 

Audi 90 and I picked it up from 

the Archibalds showroom. 

Nearly 35 years later, my 

last evaluation drive was also 

presented to me from staff at 

Archibalds, not an Audi but a 

Volvo – a C40 Recharge – a fully 

electric vehicle to be exact. 

The C40 Recharge is a crossover 

wagon, one that has a coupetype 

shape but tall enough to 

be a sport utility vehicle. But its 

main claim is that of its propulsion, 

it has no petrol engine, it 

has a motor over the front axle 

and drives through the front 

wheels only. 

A point to note with the C40’s 

driveline and platform is it 

shares much componentry with 

that of the Polestar 2; Volvo has 

www.drivesouth.co.nz 

a major interest in the Chinese 

company. That will allow buyers 

a choice, the prices are similar 

at $85,900 (C40 Recharge) and 

from $68,990 to $93,900 for the 

Polestar 2, yet you can make 

the decision of whether a sedan 

type body structure or an SUV 

is right for you. It is interesting 

to note here the C40 Recharge 

won’t get you any Government 

Clean Car Programme rebate. 

Inside, the C40 Recharge has 

immediate similarities with 

Polestar as well, the large screen 

graphics and interface are almost 

identical. Specification levels on 

the Volvo are extensive and, of 

course, you get all the clever safety 

kit that Volvo has long been 

revered for in all of its models. 

Volvo has indicated its intention 

to produce electric models 

only by 2030 and with Polestar’s 

Incorporating 

best motorbuys 

input that would seem quite 

achievable. The C40 Recharge is 

the first full EV out of the blocks 

and it is a worthy trendsetter. 

Volvo claims 170kW of power 

and 330Nm of torque, both 

outputs available instantaneously. 

That’s where EVs come 

into their own, they are dynamic 

and forceful. Volvo also claims 

a 7.4sec standstill to 100km/h 

time. (If that’s not quick enough 

for you, there is a higher output 

Ultimate model at $100,900, 

which cuts out that time in 

4.7sec.) 

And the C40 Recharge in 

entry-level form still gets great 

range. It can travel up to 438km 

on a single charge, there’s a 

69kWh battery system sitting 

in the platform of the car, and 

that is a lot of capacity. Bear in 

mind most EV manufacturers 

recommend 80 per cent as being 

full capacity, in a bid to increase 

battery longevity. 

It’s the little out of the box 

ideas that I really liked in the 

C40 Recharge. One in particular 

is the textured map of Gothenburg 

that is inlaid into the dash 

CAR CITY 

EST 1973 

Opposite 

Uprising 

Rock 

Climbing 

panel in front of the passenger 

seat. If you are ever in Sweden it 

is something you could relate to. 

As mentioned, this is my 

last motor vehicle evaluation. 

Throughout the last 35 years I’ve 

been on an incredible journey, 

I’ve driven many thousands of 

the latest and greatest models 

and it’s been an absolute thrill 

and an experience I have never 

tired of as I head into retirement 

from the publishing industry. 

By way of a thank you, I’d 

like to acknowledge all of the 

feedback I’ve received, motoring 

journalism is obviously something 

that is well read, respected 

and opinion-dividing. I hope 

you’ve enjoyed reading my columns 

as much as I have enjoyed 

writing them. For those who have 

asked me what is the best vehicle 

for you, I also hope I’ve steered 

you in the right direction.

“I haven’t heard this clearly for years!” 

(Comment from one of our many 

satisfied clients recently) 

We change lives all day, every day. 

Hearing loss can creep up on you very gradually, 

quite often over several years. The first signs of this 

are often a reduction in speech clarity, or difficulties 

conversing with people in social situations, such as a 

restaurant or family gathering. Other early signs are 

ringing in the ears (tinnitus) or a gradual increase in 

your TV volume level. These issues can be very 

frustrating, and are often first noticed by your family. 

We take the time to listen to you and your needs; 

understand that one size does not fit all, and always 

do everything at your pace. There is a good reason 

we have so many wonderful 5 star Google reviews. 

Come have a chat with us at The Hub, 418 Main 

South Road, Hornby (between Japan Mart & BNZ). 

whit w 

Hear Again have extensive experience of helping to 

overcome hearing difficulties. From a simple check 

to see if your ears are blocked with wax, to the 

provision and highly personalized fine tuning of the 

very latest hearing devices; the professional, friendly 

team are here to help, every step of the way.
