Digging her way to<br />
victory<br />
• By Isabella Adams<br />
“I WON IT for the girls.”<br />
That was the reaction from<br />
Georgia Lyford after she beat out<br />
25 other digger operators at a<br />
region-wide competition.<br />
Georgia Lyford from Schick<br />
Civil Construction Ltd in Middleton<br />
was the only female competitor<br />
at the Canterbury/Westland<br />
regional excavator operator<br />
competition.<br />
Lyford won the experienced<br />
category, and will move on to the<br />
national finals competition in<br />
Feilding in March.<br />
It was Lyford’s third time in<br />
the competition, and she wanted<br />
to redeem herself after not being<br />
satisfied with her performance at<br />
last year’s event.<br />
“I’m only 23 so it will be cool<br />
to go to the finals in Feilding and<br />
prove to other young girls considering<br />
a career in civil construction<br />
that we can do it too,” she said.<br />
The competition included a<br />
range of challenges to test operators’<br />
precision, from slam dunking<br />
a basketball using an excavator’s<br />
bucket, to deftly pouring a cup of<br />
tea using a special attachment on<br />
the end of their excavator’s arm.<br />
It also included more conventional<br />
tests of skill such as truck<br />
loading and traversing obstacles,<br />
as well as theory-based challenges<br />
requiring operators to demonstrate<br />
health and safety knowledge<br />
and awareness of underground<br />
services and on-site hazards.<br />
Organiser James Flower said the<br />
year’s event was a success.<br />
“The weather was perfect, and<br />
the enthusiastic support from<br />
friends, family, and the public<br />
contributed to a lively atmosphere<br />
throughout the day.<br />
“One of the standout challenges<br />
was the ‘egg and spoon’<br />
event, where competitors had to<br />
delicately pick up an egg from a<br />
sandpile with a spoon attached to<br />
their excavator and place it into a<br />
small cup,” Flower said.<br />
“There were certainly moments<br />
that left the audience in stitches, as<br />
a few competitors ended up with<br />
their eggs scrambled.”<br />
Flower said there was a shortage<br />
of excavator operators nationally<br />
and the event aimed to both<br />
celebrate existing operators and<br />
inspire other people to consider<br />
joining the industry.<br />
FOR THE GIRLS: Georgia Lyford, the only female competitor, won the experienced<br />
category at the Canterbury/Westland regional excavator operation competition. Tasks like<br />
the egg and spoon challenge (above) were part of a range of skills competitors needed to<br />
demonstrate.<br />

Not-for-profit developer buys<br />
Sandilands housing complex<br />
THE CITY council has sold<br />
the old Sandilands community<br />
housing complex in Linwood<br />
to a not-for-profit developer.<br />
The council started an<br />
expression of interest process<br />
to identify potential buyers<br />
for the property, with a focus<br />
on organisations who would<br />
include social or affordable<br />
homes in their development<br />
plans for the property.<br />
Kāinga Maha, which is part<br />
of Home Foundation Charitable<br />
Trust, will acquire 18 of the<br />
22 sites, while Ōtautahi Community<br />
Housing Trust will<br />
take over the remaining four.<br />
The existing 22 units (44<br />
bedrooms) will be replaced by<br />
an estimated total of 51 units<br />
(98 bedrooms), significantly<br />
increasing the housing capacity.<br />
The properties, located on<br />
Griffiths Ave, Nicholas Drive,<br />
and Coulter St, were closed<br />
progressively from late 2016<br />
due to the presence of asbestos.<br />
After remediation programme<br />
on two units proved<br />
uneconomical, the council<br />
decided in 2023 to sell the<br />
properties to organisations<br />
committed to building social<br />
or affordable housing.<br />
Mayor Phil Mauger said the<br />
AFFORDABLE: The city council will sell the former Sandilands community housing<br />
complex to Kāinga Maha and Ōtautahi Community Housing Trust.<br />
PHOTO: NEWSLINE<br />
agreement is a win-win for the<br />
council and community.<br />
“We want our city to be a<br />
place where people have access<br />
to affordable, warm and secure<br />
housing and we also know that<br />
we can’t do this on our own.<br />
“Both KM and ŌCHT<br />
have a proven track record of<br />
award-winning developments<br />
that deliver positive housing<br />
outcomes for our community.<br />
“Our goal for these sites was<br />
to see them redeveloped in a<br />
similar way to their historical<br />
use and this ticks all the boxes.<br />
“The redevelopment will<br />
have a mixture of tenure<br />
types, including social rental,<br />
affordable rental, affordable<br />
ownership, and market housing.<br />
“I’m really pleased we’ve<br />
been able to make the land<br />
available for this purpose.”<br />
The planned units will range<br />
from one to four bedrooms,<br />
catering to diverse housing<br />
needs.<br />
The council is currently<br />
finalising its commercial<br />
negotiations with the two<br />
organisations.<br />

The Strategists Churchill, Stalin, Roosevelt, Mussolini and Hitler<br />
– How War Made Them, And How They Made War<br />
by Phillips Payson O’Brien<br />
A compelling revisionist history which explores the impact of WW1 on the mindsets and<br />
strategic decisions of WW2’s most important leaders If we want to understand military<br />
strategy, we must first understand the strategist. In THE STRATEGISTS, Professor Phillips<br />
Payson O’Brien delves deep into the psyches of five of the most impactful leaders in<br />
modern history - Churchill, Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini and Roosevelt - and their respective<br />
strategic methods and choices. The implications of the power of leaders remain with us<br />
to this day - to truly understand what is happening in Ukraine, for example, requires us<br />
to know what has influenced the leaders involved.<br />

Enviro Master helping<br />
Cantabrians<br />
Enviro Master has been helping<br />
Cantabrians get the balance right when<br />
it comes to choosing the perfect heat<br />
pump or air conditioning system for<br />
their home or office since 2002.<br />
Their team of expert sales people,<br />
qualified electricians, heating and<br />
refrigeration engineers, help to supply<br />
and install one of Christchurch’s<br />
widest range of heat pumps including<br />
Panasonic, Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin<br />
and Fujitsu. Because they have no<br />
affiliation with any one brand, you can<br />
be assured their advice on the benefits<br />
and differences between each product is<br />
unbiased.<br />
They will recommend the most<br />
energy-efficient and cost-effective system<br />
for your individual situation, and will<br />
have you regulating the heat in your<br />
home or office in no time.<br />
Nowadays, customers are often<br />
wanting whole home solutions to be<br />
able to maintain even temperatures<br />
throughout the home both in Winter<br />
and Summer. This can be achieved by<br />
using ducted systems or multi systems<br />
and Enviro Master are experts in<br />
designing, installing and commissioning<br />
these systems.<br />
Help is currently available with a<br />
government subsidy offering 80 per cent<br />
of the cost of a new heat pump up to<br />
$3000 including GST.<br />
The subsidy is part of the Warmer<br />
Kiwi Homes initiative and is available<br />
to Home owner/occupiers with a<br />
Community Services Card, a SuperGold<br />
combo card or who live in a low-income<br />
area as determined by deciles 8-<strong>10</strong> on<br />
the New Zealand Deprivation Index.<br />
advertorial<br />
The applicant’s home must also have<br />
been built before 2008, have insulation<br />
up to code (insulation subsidies also<br />
available) and have no fixed heating<br />
in any living area, such as an existing<br />
operational heat pump or fireplace.<br />
To ensure you choose the right system<br />
for your home or business, one of Enviro<br />
Master’s experts will visit to assess your<br />
individual situation, offer advice and<br />
answer any questions you may have.<br />
This consultation is at no cost to the<br />
customer and is always provided before a<br />
heat pump is installed.<br />
Anyone wondering about their<br />
eligibility for a subsidised heat pump are<br />
welcome to get in touch for details and<br />
help with the application process.<br />

“A local team for local people”<br />
Play a way to keep<br />
Dutch heritage alive<br />
• By Isabella Adams<br />
A DUTCH drama group is on cue<br />
for a successful run of its annual play<br />
performance.<br />
The Toenail Culture Ale drama group<br />
formed in 2001 and performs its plays in<br />
Dutch.<br />
Next week, they will be performing<br />
Marathon, a comedy drama adapted from<br />
the 2012 Dutch movie De Marathon.<br />
The play follows four women who are<br />
trying to save their car garage by running a<br />
marathon.<br />
The group currently has <strong>10</strong> members, all<br />
of whom where born in the Netherlands.<br />
Member Hank Steffors said the group<br />
began as a way to give Dutch immigrants<br />
an opportunity to perform in their native<br />
language.<br />
“We are really cultural. Even the pieces<br />
we perform, we get them from Holland.<br />
“We like to perform still because it’s important<br />
to keep your Dutch heritage intact.”<br />
Stoffers said the group selects plays written<br />
in the Netherlands, and re-works them<br />
to fit the demographics of the group at that<br />
point in time.<br />
Most of the group is female, with Stoffers<br />
being the only male member.<br />
De Marathon revolves around a group<br />
of four men, so some parts of the plot and<br />
characters have been re-worked due to the<br />
group’s gender imbalance.<br />
The play has been written by group member<br />
Annekatrien Verbraak.<br />
Due to the lack of male actors, Stoffers<br />
will be playing three male characters, and<br />
HARD WORK: The group have been<br />
preparing for the show since February.<br />
stand-in actor Vincent Nydam will play the<br />
remaining two men.<br />
The group uses the Dutch-owned<br />
Everglades Golf Club in Ouruhia as its<br />
home base, and Stoffers built the stage they<br />
perform and practice on.<br />
The group have been preparing Marathon<br />
since February, and will perform three<br />
shows from <strong>October</strong> 18-20.<br />
Stoffers said the group is always looking<br />
for more members, particularly in the<br />
younger demographic.<br />
“I think it’s important we keep this going,<br />
but we need to have some young people to<br />
fall in love with drama productions.<br />
“It’s a very good thing to keep up your<br />
language, and if you want to learn the<br />
Dutch language then this is quite a good<br />
pathway for young people to keep their<br />
heritage.”<br />

of city’s active heritage<br />
IF YOU’VE got interesting old photos<br />
tucked away in your cupboard, left on a<br />
digital camera SD card or stashed on your<br />
phone – now’s the time to dig them out.<br />
The annual Christchurch City Libraries’<br />
Photo Hunt is under way and will run<br />
until <strong>October</strong> 31.<br />
The event aims to digitally gather<br />
photographs from across the community<br />
alongside the Christchurch Heritage<br />
Festival which opens on Saturday.<br />
This year’s theme is Active Heritage –<br />
Sport, Recreation and Leisure.<br />
Said city council head of libraries and<br />
information Carolyn Robertson: “The<br />
photo hunt gives people the chance to<br />
share some of their precious memories<br />
and highlight key moments in our city’s<br />
history, each photo comes with its own<br />
unique story.<br />
“We’ve held the event every year<br />
since 2008 and it’s a wonderful way to<br />
help with our goal of creating a photographic<br />
archive of the life and times of<br />
Ōtautahi-Christchurch and Te Pātaka o<br />
Rākaihautū-Banks Peninsula.”<br />
The 2023 overall winner New Beginnings<br />
in NZ features a sun-drenched Dutch<br />
migrant leaning against a doorframe in<br />
1950s Christchurch.<br />
Said the judges: “This well composed<br />
photograph gives us an insight into the<br />
life of a Dutch migrant who has arrived<br />
in 1950s Christchurch. After having lived<br />
through the horrors of the Second World<br />
War, she looks relaxed and happy while<br />
standing casually in the doorframe holding<br />
a cigarette in her hand.<br />
“The presence of the bicycle, a common<br />
form of transport in both the Netherlands<br />
and Christchurch in the 1950s, shows that<br />
she is maintaining a connection to her<br />
former life while learning to live in a new<br />
country.”<br />
Submitted photos will be highlighted on<br />
the Discovery Wall at Tūranga, the mobile<br />
Discovery Wall, as well as on the digital<br />
heritage repository Canterbury Stories.<br />

Centuries-old folk remedy<br />
supports good health!<br />
A fermented liquid health tonic offers an<br />
array of powerful health benefits. It is none<br />
other than the popular apple cider vinegar<br />
or ACV. Since the time of Hippocrates –<br />
the “Father of Medicine” – ACV has been<br />
renowned for its curative properties.<br />
In his famous book “ARTHRITIS & FOLK<br />
MEDICINE,” DR. D.C. Jarvis reports how<br />
he found that Vermonters who regularly<br />
consumed ACV & Honey had excellent<br />
health, with many putting in a vigorous day’s<br />
work on the farm even when well into their<br />
eighties. Jarvis also noted the effects of ACV<br />
& H on arthritis to be remarkable, with many<br />
patients reporting almost total relief after<br />
taking a course of the mixture. Dr. Jarvis<br />
surmised that the acid and potassium in cider<br />
vinegar counteracted calcium deposits and<br />
helped the body control calcium use. Jarvis<br />
also noted that Vermonters who consumed<br />
ACV & H around mealtime had excellent<br />
blood pressure and circulation. He found<br />
that protein foods thickened the blood and<br />
vinegar thinned it. As the blood thickens, it<br />
cannot pass easily through the blood vessels<br />
and capillaries. This poor blood flow would<br />
reduce cellular health by limiting nutrients to<br />
the cells and eliminating waste from the cells.<br />
The body naturally increases blood pressure<br />
to prevent cellular damage, which puts more<br />
stress on the blood vessels, organs, and the<br />
heart. Having ACV & H with meals will help<br />
avoid protein-raising blood pressure. It also<br />
contributes to a feeling of greater well-being<br />
because the thinner blood circulates quickly<br />
& more easily through the blood vessels. Dr.<br />
Jarvis found regular consumption of CV & H<br />
to be an excellent health tonic with numerous<br />
health attributes.<br />
ACV is highly nutritious as it contains all<br />
the goodness of the apple in a form that is<br />
readily accepted by the body. Good health<br />
starts with good digestion and assimilation<br />
of nutrients. ACV taken before food will<br />
stimulate and promote healthy digestion<br />
and assimilation of vital nutrients for good<br />
health. A well-functioning digestive system<br />
helps prevent disease by neutralising toxic<br />
substances that enter the body.<br />
It is important to note that not all ACV is<br />
produced traditionally, and results are likely<br />
to prove disappointing with some other cider<br />
vinegar.<br />
Marshall’s Premium ACV & ACV with<br />
20% Manuka Honey, a Canterbury product,<br />
is produced traditionally from organic<br />
whole apples. It is double strength, ensuring<br />
you can use less. This unique product is<br />
recommended for its traditional production<br />
and double strength, offering a unique health<br />
tonic that stands out.<br />

Hearty fare with new season flavours<br />
Spring sunshine and fat<br />
bunches of asparagus<br />
are here to lift our<br />
spirits, but these early<br />
spring days often end<br />
with a chill and the<br />
need for a ‘proper<br />
dinner’, writes Nigel<br />
Slater<br />
Asparagus with<br />
wild garlic hollandaise<br />
When I first started cooking,<br />
hollandaise carried a certain<br />
terror. A fear that vanished once<br />
I cottoned on that all will be well<br />
as long as you add the butter<br />
slowly, drop-by-drop at first, and<br />
that the sauce mustn’t get too<br />
hot.<br />
Ingredients<br />
Serves 2 as a light lunch<br />
400g asparagus<br />
4 slices sourdough bread or<br />
focaccia<br />
For the hollandaise:<br />
3 egg yolks<br />
2tsp white wine vinegar<br />
200g melted butter<br />
50g wild garlic leaves<br />
a squeeze of lemon juice<br />
Method<br />
• To make the hollandaise<br />
sauce, put a pan of water on to<br />
boil and find a heatproof glass<br />
or china bowl that will fit neatly<br />
into it without touching the<br />
water. Drop in the egg yolks and<br />
vinegar. Whisk in the melted<br />
butter, very slowly at first, then in<br />
an intermittent stream, whisking<br />
all the time until you have a<br />
thick, creamy sauce.<br />
• Finely chop the garlic leaves<br />
and stir into the sauce, along<br />
with the lemon. Remove the<br />
pan from the heat, but leave the<br />
bowl over the water. Whisk from<br />
time to time to prevent it from<br />
separating.<br />
• For the asparagus, bring a<br />
large pot of water to the boil.<br />
Trim the asparagus, removing<br />
any dry ends.<br />
• Lower in the asparagus and<br />
leave to cook for 5-7 minutes,<br />
depending on the thickness of<br />
the spears. I like to cook them<br />
until they are just tender enough<br />
to bend. Remove from the water<br />
with a draining spoon or kitchen<br />
tongs (tipping into a colander<br />
may damage the fragile tips),<br />
then let them drain.<br />
• Toast the slices of bread<br />
lightly, then place a spoonful<br />
of sauce on each. Divide the<br />
asparagus between them, then<br />
spoon over some of the sauce<br />
and serve any extra at the side.<br />
Lamb with rose harissa<br />
and apricots<br />
Like many such casseroles, this<br />
is something of a keeper and will<br />
come to no harm if kept in the<br />
fridge for a couple of days.<br />
Ingredients<br />
Serves 4<br />
2 tsp ground cinnamon<br />
2 tsp ground cumin<br />
2 tsp ground turmeric<br />
1 tsp hot paprika<br />
2 tbsp olive oil<br />
1kg diced lamb shoulder<br />
2 medium onions<br />
4 garlic cloves<br />
250g dried apricots<br />
60g sultanas<br />
2 tbsp honey<br />
750ml stock<br />
2 x 400g cans chopped tomatoes<br />
2 tbsp rose harissa<br />
1 lemon<br />
Method<br />
• Put the ground spices –<br />
cinnamon, cumin, turmeric,<br />
paprika – into a mixing bowl, add<br />
the lamb, toss thoroughly and set<br />
aside for a couple of hours. If it’s<br />
an option to leave overnight, that<br />
would be even better.<br />
• Set the oven at 180C. Warm<br />
the oil in a deep, heavy-based<br />
casserole dish over a moderate to<br />
high heat, then add the lamb and<br />
fry until lightly browned, stirring<br />
and turning the meat from time<br />
to time. Take care not to let the<br />
spices burn.<br />
• While the meat is frying, peel<br />
and roughly chop the onions.<br />
Lift the meat out with a draining<br />
spoon and set aside, then add the<br />
onions to the pan (with a little<br />
more oil if necessary) and let them<br />
cook for a good <strong>10</strong>-15 minutes,<br />
stirring regularly over a moderate<br />
heat. Peel and thinly slice the<br />
garlic, then add to the onions.<br />
• Halve and stone the apricots,<br />
if they have stones. Add the<br />
sultanas, honey, stock, tomatoes<br />
and apricots and bring to the boil.<br />
Lower the heat, add the browned<br />
meat and cover with a lid.<br />
• Transfer the casserole to the<br />
oven and cook for 2 hours till the<br />
meat is tender, but not soft.<br />
• Stir in the rose harissa and the<br />
juice of half the lemon; taste and<br />
adjust with more lemon, harissa<br />
and salt if you wish.<br />
