GAGGED? 

Cathedral 

group say 

they are 

muzzled 

• By Gabrielle Stuart 

PHILIP BURDON and Jim 

Anderton say they have been 

gagged from talking publicly 

about the future of Christ Church 

Cathedral. 

The former MPs, who are 

trying to save the Cathedral from 

demolition, signed confidentially 

contracts in September last year 

preventing them speaking about 

a report carried out by Miriam 

Dean QC into the arguments over 

whether to save or demolish the 

building. 

That lapsed after the report was 

released late last year, but this 

week they told The Star they were 

still told not to talk. 

The gagging order came to light 

this week when The Star asked the 

two former MPs for an update on 

the Cathedral. 

Mr Burdon said he could not 

talk about anything involved in 

the process. 

“[Gerry] Brownlee’s 

office has requested complete 

confidentiality, and accordingly 

we respect his complete 

confidentiality and it is entirely 

up to his office to decide what 

information, if any, they wish to 

release,” he said. 

But yesterday, Mr Brownlee’s 

office threw confusion on the 

gagging order when it referred 

questions from The Star about 

the confidentiality issue to 

the Department of the Prime 

Minister and Cabinet.

At a Glance 

THIS WEEK IN CANTERBURY’S PAST 

This week in history saw the New Zealand Boxing Association 

being formed in Christchurch on July 4, 1902. Hundreds of 

people were evacuated as serious flooding affected the city 

on July 4, 1977. Three young men drowned in the Avon River 

as a result of a boating mishap on July 6, 1887. Widespread 

flooding also caused problems in the province on July 7, 1908. 

The Canterbury Society of Arts was formed on July 8, 1880. 

Civic tree planting began on July 9, 1863. Part of the day’s 

planting was a commemorative tree, generally regarded as the 

beginning of the Botanic Gardens. Hagley Park and Botanic 

Gardens were included in the city boundary on July 10, 1922. 

A record crowd of over 57,000 watched the All Blacks play 

against the British Lions at Lancaster Park on July 10, 1971.

Giant mural lifts spirits 

‘Freak’ Wilson’s 

latest 

masterpiece 

CHRISTCHURCH street artist 

Wongi ‘Freak’ Wilson’s latest 

artwork continues to enthrall 

the Garden City. 

The mural on the side of the 

UniMed building at the corner 

of Gloucester and Manchester 

Sts was completed last month 

and shows two children playing 

hide and seek. 

It was commissioned by 

UniMed New Zealand and set 

up by the street art collective 

OiYou. 

Wilson (left) 

said as far as he 

was aware there 

are no plans to 

build in front of 

the mural. 

“So hopefully 

it’ll be there for 

some time.” 

The giant images are 

modelled on his and his wife 

Emma’s niece, and on the son of 

a good friend. 

Born and raised in Sydenham 

in Christchurch where he still 

lives, Wilson’s cheerful murals 

continue to lift spirits city-wide. 

He says his art has evolved 

from a hobby to a full-time 

•From page 1 

His office said the DPMC was 

leading discussions between 

Great Christchurch Buildings 

Trust and the Anglican Diocese. 

But a DPMC spokesman told 

The Star the confidentiality 

agreement only applied until the 

report was released late last year, 

inferring Mr Anderton and Mr 

Burdon were in fact able to talk

accountant, and boosted by the 

opportunities brought about in 

post-quake Christchurch.

confidentially agreement lapsed 

he was told that any comment 

would have to come from a 

former Canterbury Earthquake 

Recovery Authority senior 

staff member now based in 

Mr Brownlee’s office, who also 

liaises with the DPMC. 

Mr Anderton said he was 

abiding by that directive. 

But a central city developer 

Earnest Duval said someone 

needed to talk about what was 

documented at his website, 

www.wongi.co.nz 

His interest in graffiti developed 

at a young age, watching 

the art form grow over the 

last two decades from virtual 

non-existence to a blossoming, 

pervasive creative influence 

across the country. 

He has played a major role in 

transformation graffiti art in 

happening with the Cathedral, 

because the silence was fuelling 

uncertainty for developers and 

property owners. 

“It is such a significant project 

for Christchurch because it is 

a catalyst for so much development 

in the area,” he said. 

He said he understood the 

details of the discussions being 

kept under wraps, but either the 

Government or the Cathedral 

campaigners should be allowed 

Christchurch through both his 

hundreds of large-scale murals 

across the city, and through 

several exhibitions at Canterbury 

Museum and the COCA 

Gallery. 

His medium of choice is the 

spray can but his trademark is a 

diverse range of styles featuring 

a blend of traditional graffiti 

and photorealism. 

Cathedral group say they are muzzled 

to give updates on the process. 

Mr Anderton said the Government 

had taken keeping information 

under wraps too far. 

“I think it’s the time, and well 

past it, that they could actually 

make an announcement about 

what is actually happening.” 

A spokesman for the Anglican 

Diocese said it was not aware 

of or involved in any confidentiality 

agreement around the 

discussions. 

In Brief 

86-YEAR-OLD DIES IN FIRE 

An 86-year-old reported to be 

Raymond Leslie John Burnett died 

after a fire tore through his home 

south of Cheviot yesterday. An 

elderly woman, believed to be his 

wife, managed to escape the fire 

which had engulfed the house, 

police said. Fire crews were called 

to the burning house, on Gore Bay, 

about 7.40am. 

BUS PATRONAGE 

Patronage of the city’s orange line 

bus route was up 8 per cent in 

May compared to the same time 

last year, while patronage of the 

Orbiter was down 6.2 per cent. 

The blue, yellow and purple lines 

were at close to the same level of 

patronage. The total number of 

people using these five main lines 

was 709,432, a fall of 1.2 per cent 

compared to the previous year. 

ARTIST DONATES PAINTINGS 

Christchurch artist Rangi Downes 

has donated his paintings to 51 

hospitals and doctors’ offices 

around the South Island, and has 

no plans to stop. The 75-year-old 

has returned from a road trip 

delivering the Mickey Mouse 

paintings, which he began to 

donate after hearing the stories 

of children fighting cancer. He 

is now working on a series of 

paintings for sick children in 

Christchurch. 

POLLUTION GUIDELINE 

EXCEEDED 

The city recorded its fourth and 

fifth high pollution days for the 

year within the last week. The 

health-based concentration 

guideline was exceeded on 

Sunday with a 24-hour average 

concentration of 51mcg of 

suspended particulate per cubic 

metre of air, measured at the 

monitoring site in St Albans. On 

Monday, 95mcg was recorded at 

the Woolston monitoring site. The 

national compliance target that 

Christchurch will be expected 

to meet will be set at three high 

pollution days per year from 

September, dropping to one day 

from 2020.

News 

Couple not shaken after grisly find 

THE Christchurch 

holidaymaker who found a 

bundled up human head washed 

ashore in Fiji says he knew as 

soon as he picked it up what he 

held in his hands. 

The gruesome find is believed 

to be the latest in a gory case 

of a Russian couple murdered 

and dismembered on the Pacific 

island. 

A host of body parts, including 

two pairs of severed feet, 

have washed to shore in the past 

fortnight. 

Graeme Bickley and his wife 

Jan were walking along Natadola 

beach on Monday morning 

when they spotted a green 

bundle sitting about 10m out 

from shore in low tide. 

The couple, like many around 

them, were fascinated by the 

murder mystery and had been 

reading as much as they could 

about it. 

Joking at first, they wondered 

whether this might be more 

body parts, Mr Bickley told the 

New Zealand Herald. 

“My wife spotted it and she 

said: ‘Oh, look at that’ and I said: 

‘Oh, it’ll be more body parts’. 

“[I was] just joking, but when I 

went out into the water and bent 

down to pick it up and found it 

was so heavy . . . you think: ‘Oh, 

okay’.” 

The bundle, tied and secured 

with nylon fishing line, was 

weighed down by rocks, which 

made it hard to carry, Mr Bickley 

said. 

“I got it to shore finally and 

put it down on the sand and the 

stones rattled in it and I thought: 

‘Oh no, this is not good’.” 

Although he and his wife 

chose not to open the bundle, 

police later confirmed it contained 

a human head, but did 

not say who the victim was. 

“It’s a funny little feeling in 

your tummy. Like, that was 

somebody’s life a few days ago,” 

Mr Bickley said. 

“It’s also a funny feeling about 

how the people who had put that 

package together had been so 

inhuman. 

“[They had] been able to cut it 

up and spend considerable time 

putting it into this parcel, which 

was very neatly and securely fastened 

so it actually survived all the 

tides that brought it ashore again.” 

Fiji police this week said DNA 

tests showed the body parts

and Jan 

Bickley.

belonged to Russian couple Yuri 

and Natalia Shipulin, who went 

missing on June 16. 

Police believe the Russians, 

who had reportedly been in Fiji 

since 2011, were murdered and 

dismembered. 

Media reported this week that 

detectives had information a 

chainsaw was missing from a 

farm the couple were running on 

the main island of Viti Levu. 

The Fiji Times said they were 

leasing the property and operating 

a photography business, with 

one friend describing them as 

“soulmates”. 

However, their business 

partner Andrew Luzanenko told 

the Fiji Sun they had financial 

difficulties after the farm was 

devastated by Super Cyclone 

Winston this year. 

Mr and Mrs Bickley were back 

in their Christchurch home by 

yesterday evening, having been 

due to end their holiday by then 

anyway. 

They were left not too shaken 

by the grisly find. 

“Once we’d spoken to the police 

and the [Fijian] newspaper, 

obviously we thought about it all 

day and it did leave a funny feeling 

in my tummy I must admit. 

“Here’s a person’s life gone and 

there’s people probably not far 

from us who cut them up and 

put them in a package like that.”



Millions to set up Otakaro 


OTAKARO HAS budgeted 

more than $6 million for its 

set up, in spite of re-employing 

many Canterbury Earthquake 

Recovery Authority staff and 

moving into its former office. 

As of May, Otakaro had spent 

$3.9 million of the $6.1 million 

budgeted for its set up. 

Otakaro is the Crown company 

which has taken over control 

from CERA of the city’s major 

anchor projects. 

The $3.9 million spend 

included the cost of setting up 

the office, recruiting staff, the 

due diligence process, setting up 

policies and procedures and the 

“co-ordination and project management 

of the establishment”. 

That included $348,000 on 

recruiting staff, including 

$108,000 on international recruitment 

for a chief executive. 

Chief executive Albert Brantley 

was found in Canterbury. Of 

the other 90 staff, 52 came from 

CERA. 

When asked for a breakdown 

of the other costs involved in the 

set up, an Otakaro spokesman 

told The Star that the questions 

could not be answered this week 

and would have to be sent as an 

Official Information Act request. 

TAKE OVER: Otakaro is based on level eight of the HSBC 

building on Worcester Boulevard, where CERA was located 

until it closed in April. 

But Otakaro chairman Ross 

Butler (below) said the costs 

were comparable 

to any company 

created to deliver a 

similar programme 

of sizeable projects. 

“Establishing 

Otakaro Ltd in 

just 14 weeks was a significant 

undertaking given the scale and 

magnitude of its role. 

“The company’s ability to 

maintain momentum on the 

anchor projects following the 

transition from CERA is a testament 

to a focus on efficiency 

during the set up period,” Mr 

Butler said. 

Minister supporting Greater 

Christchurch Regeneration 

Gerry Brownlee would not answer 

questions about the set up 

costs or what oversight he had 

of them. He said they were best 

answered by Otakaro. 

In a report to a parliamentary 

committee, Otakaro said more 

of the $6.1 million would be 

spent this year reviewing inherited 

systems and “bedding in 

key establishment policies and 

processes”. 

Labour’s Canterbury 

spokeswoman 

Megan Woods (right) 

said the fact that so 

much was being spent 

on setting up systems 

concerned her. 

“It really highlights that 

CERA wasn’t fit for purpose if 

five and a half years later we’re 

now having to put these systems 

in place.” 

But she said the money would 

be worth spending if the new 

systems could speed up the 

process. 

“If this is $6 million invested 

in getting things moving, it’s 

a good investment. But what I 

don’t want to see is good money 

going after bad. So the proof will 

be in the pudding, really,” she 

said. 

Full house for 

Crown-owned 

company 

A MAN who led the restoration of 

Catholic Diocese of Christchurch 

buildings, and delivered projects 

for Disney has snapped up the 

last senior managerial position at 

Otakaro. 

Keith Beal will be the Crownowned 

company’s general manager, 

strategy and property opportunities, 

starting next month. 

He rounds out a now fully 

staffed senior management team 

of four, plus chief executive Albert 

Brantley. 

The company is charged with 

delivering the city’s anchor projects. 

It took over from the now 

defunct CERA. 

General manager development 

Robert Fiske, who has been employed 

by BHP Billiton in Perth, 

managing a $6 billion portfolio. 

General counsel is Ruth Keating 

who relocated from Melbourne 

to take up the role. She has held 

positions at Meridian Energy and 

several law firms here and abroad. 

Former CERA employee Dave 

Mills was appointed to the role 

of general manager corporate 

services and chief financial officer. 

He has also held positions with 

New Zealand Cricket and Meridian 

Energy.

In Brief 

• By Shelley Robinson 

Underground insurance woes 

MAN ARRESTED AFTER 

SCIRT: The Wairakei Diversion has been repaired as part of the 

major upgrade to the city’s wastewater network. 

THE CITY council is facing a 

multi-billion dollar problem as it 

tries to find an insurer and 

options to cover the network of 

underground pipes. 

It has been crunching the 

numbers over the past few 

months on how much insurance 

to get and how to get it. 

Currently, there is $6 billion 

of underground infrastructure 

with $100 million cover 

through the Local Authority 

Protection Programme Disaster 

Fund. 

Above ground, buildings and 

other assets are well-covered, 

with $1.8 billion coverage 

for $2.2 billion of assets, but 

underground is another story, 

said city councillor and the 

insurance committee deputy 

chairman, Raf Manji. 

“Certainly it is a risk that 

we’ve had to carry for a long 

time. We do have a huge amount 

of underground infrastructure 

that is not insured,” he said. 

It’s a risk mitigated by the “resilience” 

built into the networks 

– plastic pipes instead of ceramic 

that could take “a lot of shaking”, 

Cr Manji said. 

The problem is to go to market 

insurers need enough information 

to base a price on, said city 

council financial officer Peter 

Gudsell. 

But the city is still undergoing 

extensive repairs, meaning there 

is “insufficient information to 

seek a response from the market”, 

he said. 

The city had $200 million 

of cover with LAPP after the 

September 2010 and February 

2011 earthquakes, which was 

paid out. 

Cr Manji favours getting 

“catastrophe insurance” or 

parametric insurance for the underground 

infrastructure. This 

insures for a particular event. 

In a disaster, the Government 

covers 60 per cent of the 

cost, with councils paying the 

remainder. 

But that is under review by the 

Local Government Risk Agency, 

forcing councils to look at other 

insurance options. 

“I think the gut feeling is 

councils will be taking on more 

of their own risk,” said Cr Manji. 

Auckland City Council director 

legal and risk Katherine 

Anderson said it was looking 

to purchase cover for its underground 

stormwater assets, with a 

replacement value of $2.9 billion. 

The normally candid deputy 

mayor, Vicki Buck, who is on the 

committee, said she preferred 

not to comment on the “minefield” 

that was the city council’s 

insurance. 

But she did say that after the 

issues with Civic Assurance, 

the city council has been more 

cautious. 

It took a year of mediation 

with Civic Assurance’s reinsurers 

before it received its

and there are regular updates,” 

she said. 

INDECENT EXPOSURE 

Police arrested a man on Tuesday 

after he exposed himself to a 

young child in Riccarton. The 

man is his 40s is known to police. 

The incident happened about 

3.30pm in Kmart. He was taken 

into custody and investigations 

are continuing. 

HUNTER SHOT IN LEG 

A man is recovering after being 

accidentally shot in the leg by his 

hunting partner at Glenthorne 

Station, near Lake Coleridge on 

Sunday. The pair and a third 

man, all from Selwyn, were on a 

hunting trip when the accident 

happened. Senior Sergeant Tony 

Beaumont said one of the men 

had been unloading his rifle when 

it discharged. Police were likely to 

lay charges, he said. 

CORRECTION 

In The Star last week, it was 

reported that the city council 

made the decision to put $70,000 

toward the SingularityU summit 

behind closed doors. The grant 

was discussed behind closed 

doors in a public excluded 

committee meeting, but the 

final decision was made in a 

meeting which was open to the 

public. The Star apologises for the 

error.

Prisoner-to-staff 

ratio high 

in Christchurch 


TWO CHRISTCHURCH prisons 

have the worst prisoner-to-staff 

ratios in the country. 

Rolleston Prison has the highest, 

with 3.6 prisoners to each 

person on staff. Christchurch 

Men’s Prison has the second highest, 

with 2.8 prisoners to each staff 

member. 

Most prisons have about two 

prisoners to one staff member, 

with 1.5 prisoners to each staff 

member the lowest ratio. 

The numbers were revealed in 

a report to a parliamentary committee, 

which said the ratios could 

be influenced by the age and 

design of the prison, the type of 

programmes on site and the security 

classification of the prisoners. 

Corrections Association of NZ 

president Alan Whitley said the 

real ratio from day-to-day at the 

prisons was much higher than the 

numbers reported. 

He said the real ratio from 

day-to-day could be as high as one 

staff member to 20 prisoners. 

The numbers reflected the 

ratio if every staff member was 

at work at one time, but because 

they worked shifts that never happened, 

he said. 

Health battle for rugby star 

• By Bridget Rutherford 

UTO ENOSI Tuipulotu came 

to Akaroa four years ago to 

get an education so he could 

support his family back in 

Tonga. 

But now he is in 

Christchurch Hospital battling 

a rare form of cancer. 

The 19-year-old had been 

having trouble with a racing 

heart while at rugby training, 

and went for a check-up. 

It was then 

when the 

doctor found 

a cancerous 

growth on his 

heart. 

The building 

apprentice is 

now in hospital undergoing 

chemotherapy treatment. 

His former history teacher, 

Garry Brittenden, who helped 

bring him to New Zealand, has 

set up a Givealittle page to help 

raise money to bring his family 

over to be with him while he 

undergoes treatment. 

His father, Siaosi, arrived in 

Christchurch on Saturday, but 

his mother Lou and his two 

brothers and sister are still to 

travel here. The money raised 

would also go towards his 

ongoing medical costs. 

After six days, the page had 

raised more than $16,200. 

Mr Brittenden said he 

was “blown away” with the 

response. 

He said Uto was a real role 

model for the youth in Akaroa, 

and was loved by all. 

Uto moved to Akaroa to 

attend the area school for year 

11. He stayed with various host 

families during his time. 

Mr Brittenden said he 

worked extremely hard to gain 

NCEA levels one, two and 

three, so he could go on to get a 

job as a building apprentice. 

“It was just through bloody 

determination, he just put his 

head down, he’s a real role 

model,” he said. 

“He knew that this was his 

opportunity to help his family.” 

Uto joined the Akaroa 

Volunteer Fire Brigade while 

he was at school, and in 

2014, made the New Zealand

News 

Davies sets sights 

on Brexit debacle 

• By Tom Doudney 

DEPARTING Hagley- 

Ferrymead Community Board 

member Joe Davies is off to 

Brexit-land but will keep in 

touch with grass roots politics in 

Christchurch for the remainder 

of his term. 

Mr Davies, 21, will leave for 

the United Kingdom in the next 

two weeks, where he hopes to 

become involved with “radical” 

politics in the wake of the country’s 

vote to leave the European 

Union. 

The move will also enable 

him to spend more time with 

his Swedish girlfriend Lovisa 

Limseth. 

He will not seek re-election 

in October. However, he has 

decided not to resign early – in 

spite of not being able to attend 

the last five board meetings – so 

he can keep in touch with what 

is happening in the ward for the 

remainder of his term. 

Mr Davies said he had asked 

for a resolution to be passed 

at the next community board 

meeting allowing him to finish 

his term without picking up a 

salary. 

LOVE AND COUNTRY: Joe 

Davies, left, with his Swedish 

girlfriend Lovisa Limseth. Mr 

Davies will soon return to the 

United Kingdom, where he 

was born. 

“I think Brexit has provided 

one of the most radical opportunities 

for politics in my lifetime 

and although I am a Kiwi, my 

blood is British.” 

Mr Davies reiterated his desire 

to become a New Zealand MP in 

the future. 

“It has been an absolute 

honour to serve the people and I 

say with absolute certainty that 

I will return to New Zealand 

when the radical times arrive 

here.”

A woman had to be cut from a car after a 

crash in Aranui on Tuesday night. 

Two women, in their 20s, were taken to 

Christchurch Hospital, one with serious 

injuries and the other with moderate 

injuries, at about 7.30pm. 

Fire appliances from the Wainoni and 

Christchurch stations spent 30min using 

hydraulic rescue gear to remove the roof 

of the car to extract one of the women. 

The car hit a parked vehicle and 

smashed it against a nearby dairy on the 

corner of Hampshire St and Marlow Rd.

Convention Centre Precinct 

decision met with approval 

I WAS very pleased last week 

to be able to deliver some 

extremely positive news to 

Christchurch residents about the 

future of the Convention Centre 

Precinct. 

In a nutshell, months of design 

and planning work has put 

us in a good position to open 

Christchurch’s new Convention 

Centre in late 2019. 

This news has been met with 

widespread approval from local 

government and the business 

community, all of whom know 

how important the conventions 

market is for the region, and 

New Zealand. 

Having successfully completed 

the early design and master 

planning stages for the precinct, 

Otakaro Ltd has released an 

indicative design for the Convention 

Centre. 

As the Crown-owned company 

set up to deliver central 

city anchor projects on the Government’s 

behalf, Otakaro will 

now seek contractors to finalise 

the design and then construct 

the facility. 

Ōtākaro Ltd will also work 

with parties interested in opportunities 

to develop the wider 

Precinct, which has considerable 

space for accommodation, car 

parking and other potential 

uses. 

Work on the site will begin 

immediately, first with rerouting 

of telecommunications and 

other early enabling works, 

and within the next two weeks 

preparations will begin for the 

Colombo St to Oxford Tce section 

of Gloucester St to close by 

the end of July. 

Engagement with potential 

early works contractors will 

begin immediately, to allow 

substantial earthworks to begin 

in October.

Having certainty around this 

project is important for the city’s 

forward planning, and I thank 

everyone for their patience as we 

took the necessary time to make 

this decision on the path ahead. 

The Government remains 

absolutely committed to a Convention 

Centre Precinct that is 

world-class, and offers quality 

accommodation, hospitality and 

retail to support the convention 

facilities.

Fendalton-

Community Board 

deputy chairman 

David Cartwright 

writes about the 

role a community board 

plays in society and his 

time in local body politics 

over the past three years. 

AS WE approach the local body 

elections, I find myself having 

many interesting and sometimes 

challenging conversations with 

friends, colleagues, and people 

in the community regarding 

the process and purpose of 

community boards. 

As with anything, the 

opinions and level of 

understanding around the role 

of community boards covers the 

entire spectrum from those who 

see just another pointless layer 

of bureaucracy, to those who are 

very supportive and really value 

the community level advocacy 

and decision-making the boards 

can provide. 

Often the strongest supporters 

are those who have had some 

kind of contact with the board, 

perhaps through being involved 

with a deputation, receiving 

a grant for a community 

event, or communicating with 

board members regarding 

improvements to local facilities 

or infrastructure. 

DECISION-MAKING: Car park 

demands at Jellie Park are being 

addressed.

The management team of Onyx Homes are quite simply some of the best and most experienced people

standard of home that is often less than the standard-plan-built homes of their competitors. Onyx believe 

that everyone is unique, so why settle for a standard-plan-home when you can have a purpose-designed 

plan to suit exactly your lifestyle and for less than a standard plan? A perfect fit! 

This is testament to our customers who have been amazed at the savings with Onyx, but also hadn’t realised 

their budget would allow for a such quality spec and design. 

Onyx Homes is the 

only company in 

the market that 

disclose their cost

have a role to play 

At the heart of it, the success 

and relevance of a community 

board can be measured on its 

ability to communicate with and 

advocate for their community – 

that is our purpose. 

As I come to the end of my 

second term on the Fendalton- 

Waimairi Community Board, 

the range of issues and events 

we are involved in continues to 

excite and motivate me. 

The small things really do 

make a difference when it comes 

to improving wellbeing, safety, 

and engagement at a community 

level. 

Some of the highlights of 

this term has been delivering 

the new Burnside Park 

fitness track, progressing 

the replacement Bishopdale 

Library, addressing car parking 

demands at Jellie Park, and 

granting funds to the talented 

youth of our ward to attend local 

and international sporting and 

cultural events. 

Recently the board has heard 

deputations on the intersection 

of Gardiners and Harewood Rds 

and looked at various short and 

long-term solutions to address 

the ever increasing traffic on our 

roads. 

Other deputations have 

covered issues such as the 

drying up of our rivers and 

streams, increasing quarrying 

and land use issues, and the 

removal of problem trees on 

health or safety grounds. 

Of course, not all issues 

can be solved at a community 

board level, but board members 

can elevate any issue with 

council staff, request additional 

information, and work to find 

an agreeable outcome. 

All of this means one of the 

most important attributes of 

an effective board member is 

the ability to really listen and 

communicate with residents, 

other board members, city 

councillors and city council 

staff. 

So when you come to complete 

your voting papers in October, 

take the time to find out more 

about the candidates, think 

about the issues that matter to 

you and your neighbours, and 

take a pro-active approach to 

deciding who will be your voice 

in the community.

board should be focusing

OVER THE last months I have 

been hearing from people all over 

Christchurch that there is more 

crime in their neighbourhoods 

and less local police to be seen on 

their streets. 

So, when the police statistics 

were released last month the 

comparison between 2015 and 

2016 confirmed what I have been 

hearing loud and clear on the 

ground. 

More cars have been stolen and 

more houses have been broken 

into. Burglaries jumped from 524 

in 2015 to 708 in 2016 – that’s an 

increase of 35 per cent. 

Across the country the increase 

has been just 11 per cent – so 

we need to ask why Canterbury 

is tracking at our three times 

the national rate? This is not a 

winning scoreboard in any Cantabarian’s 

book! Add to this the 

increase in stolen vehicles of 24 

per cent and it’s pretty clear that 

crime is increasing. 

That’s why it’s so disappointing 

to see that Canterbury has had 

a 21 per cent cut in foot patrols 

over the last year. As people are 

beginning to spread out again 

and the CBD is slowly coming 

to life, crime is on the increase. I 

would have thought we would be 

seeing more police out and about 

Crime increasing 

not fewer. Especially when other 

parts of the country have seen an 

increase in foot patrols. 

Bobbies on the beat 

make a difference – I 

have seen first-hand the 

success the intensive 

neighbourhood policing 

in Riccarton has 

made. Key to this success 

was a local policeman 

known to the local 

community. 

There’s no doubt in 

mind that the Canterbury 

Police, ably led by 

Canterbury District Commander 

Superintendent John Price, is doing 

all it can to stem this tide. But 

there is only so much they can do 

with no additional commitment 

from Government to support 

their efforts. 

There was some money for 

police in the 2016 Budget but it 

does not mean extra boots on 

the ground. The new money is 

earmarked for deserved pay increases 

but does not mean more 

crime-fighters out on our streets 

catching criminals. 

Greg O’Conner, president 

of the Police Association, 

noted at budget 

time that Operational 

Commanders will be 

disappointed that there 

will be no significant 

new operational funding 

to enable them to 

deliver essential policing 

services. 

What is needed is a 

proper commitment to Canterbury 

and not the business as 

usual mind-set of the National 

Government. Just as with health, 

EQC, housing, transport and 

education, policing needs to be 

seen in the context of the last five 

and a half years in Canterbury.

News 

Contaminated 

properties 

list out soon 

THE OWNERS of more than 3000 

Selwyn properties will soon find 

out that their land has been listed as 

potentially contaminated. 

A two-year programme, carried 

out by Environment Canterbury 

on behalf of the Selwyn District 

Council, has resulted in the identification 

of 1837 new potentially 

contaminated sites, split between 

3152 parcels of land. 

The news has raised concerns 

that land owners’ property values 

could be negatively affected by the 

information, which will be made 

publicly available on an online 

database. 

However, ECan scientist Davina 

McNickel said people had a right 

to know what their land had been 

used for in the past. 

“Being on the list means people 

will know whether they should 

graze the land, or perhaps fence it 

off from stock,” she said. 

“It also means people will 

understand the implications of 

any proposed development or 

subdivision of the land and whether 

they need to test the land first.” 

The sites, which belong to 1783 

different owners, will be added 

to the Hazardous Activities and 

Industries List. 

Neighbours take on oil giant 

• By Andrew King 

RESIDENTS ARE standing 

up to one of the biggest petrol 

companies in the world as it 

tries to expand its Edgeware 

site. 

BP Oil New Zealand owns BP 

Edgeware and has applied for a 

resource consent to expand its 

site at the corner of Edgeware 

Rd and Cranford St, adding another 

four pumps and 22 more 

car parks. 

To do so, it has bought two 

properties north of the site to 

expand into. 

But residents on Cornwall St 

are fuming at the proposal, saying 

they weren’t consulted and it 

will ruin the area. 

One of opponents, Rob Hull, 

said it was not what the area 

needed and what the Edgeware 

Village Master Plan set out to

“Our main concern is that 

it is completely counter to the 

district plan and what was 

envisaged for the future of the 

Edgeware village,” he said. 

The master plan aims to 

restore the area as a thriving 

shopping centre and community 

hub.

was to “jump up and down”. 

“Our biggest concern is it is 

going into a residential area. 

It’s going away from the plan. 

What can we do?” she said. 

BP Oil communications and 

external affairs manager Shelley 

Brady said the demand for service 

in the area had increased. 

She said improvements needed 

to be made to keep up with 

that demand and make sure 

congestion does not become a 

common problem. 

“We have been following the 

council approval process and 

it’s ultimately their decision as 

to what will and won’t be approved,” 

she said. 

City council head of resource 

consents John Higgins said the 

Edgeware master plan does not 

cover the site where the expansion 

is proposed. 

“It’s important to note that 

a master plan does not have 

the same relevance when making 

notification decisions,” he 

said. 

“This is because the notification 

decision focuses on adverse 

effects, rather than the broader 

planning assessment that is 

required when a decision is 

being made whether to grant 

the application resource consent.”

friendly atmosphere and really positive aspects 

such as school size and opportunities, the small 

class sizes and support available for those with 

learning needs. 

As always, we also encourage people to avail 

themselves of the invitation to come and visit at

Timely win at Home and Leisure Show 

WEST MELTON resident 

Kate Shaw will no longer 

need to worry about keeping 

the chill out of her home this 

winter. 

Last weekend, Mrs Shaw 

walked out of the The Star Home 

and Leisure Show with the 

winning ticket for a new central 

heating system for her home. 

“I’m very excited . . . this is 

the first sort of prize I have ever 

won,” Mrs Shaw said. 

The system, designed to radiate 

heat throughout the house, 

was sponsored by Central Heating 

New Zealand. 

Central Heating New Zealand 

managing director Lyall Smith 

said the unit is a warm water 

central heating system. 

“They work very well. Silent, 

warm, radiant, lovely to have,” 

he said. 

Mr Smith said the radiated 

panels situated throughout 

the house will heat the water 

pumped through the radiators 

to warm the house. 

More than 100 exhibitors 

packed into Horncastle Arena 

for the three-day show last week 

with some of the exhibitions 

ranging from motor homes to 

trampolines. 

Star Media event manager 

Vanessa Fleming said it was a 

fantastic show with “thousands” 

through the door. 

Hacking and 

getting 

away with it 


HANDING over Government data 

to hackers is not normal policy 

– but that is exactly what the city 

council plans to do when it hosts a 

“hackathon” this month. 

GovHack NZ brings together “civic 

hacker” coders, developers and 

entrepreneurs to work together over 

a weekend, but rather than breaking 

into systems they use Government 

and council data to innovate and 

improve them. 

It started in Australia, and events 

have been held in the North Island, 

but this year will be the first held 

in Christchurch. Winning apps last 

year included iHelp, which works to 

help people connect and get information 

and help they need after a 

disaster. The team from Wellington 

won a $4000 prize for their app. 

City council IT service manager 

Dana Burnett said people could 

enter the challenge even if they did 

not have technical skills.

July 29-31 at the city council, 

Hereford St. Entry is free but

ur People 

Laying down the challenge to create 

Christchurch-raised 

film-maker Tearepa 

Kahi directed the 2013 

hit Mt Zion starring 

singer Stan Walker. His 

documentary 

Poi E: The Story of Our 

Song debuts at the 

NZ International Film 

Festival this month 

Poi E was the first Maori 

language song to make it to No 

1 in the charts. Why did pakeha 

New Zealand adopt this song as 

their own? 

Whether you spoke Maori or 

not, you could love this song 

because the tune’s so catchy 

and the beat’s so infectious. 

Dalvanius called it “hobnail 

boots music”. It has that party 

strum that speaks to working 

rural New Zealand and those 

space invader sounds which 

spoke to urban kids. He 

orchestrated it to reflect the 

DNA of the people and the time. 

You can try to dissect it but it’s 

really alchemy. 

Does your documentary show 

a “warts-and-all” version of 

MOTIVATED: 

Tearepa Kahi’s 

first film Mt Zion 

was slightly 

autobiographical. 

Dalvanius Prime? 

More a “full colour, high 

definition” version. Dalvanius 

was a juggernaut – compromise 

didn’t exist in his vocabulary. But 

he was also a chess grand master 

– he always had another play. He 

knew white radio wasn’t going 

to play Poi E, so what does he 

do? He takes his hat off, goes up 

the main street of Patea and asks 

Quality hardwood flooring 

made from local eucalypts 

everybody for a $100 donation to 

record the video. 

When he couldn’t get it 

screened he went to Derek Fox 

at Te Karere News, who made 

the music video their whole 

three-minute bulletin. He saw 

everything with so much clarity. 

To have a vision that no one else 

can see and take others along 

with you – that’s what great 

people do. 

Why did he have so many 

chihuahuas? 

He had about 10 at one time 

and this was before lap dogs were 

fashionable. This dude was not 

copying anyone – he came fully 

formed. As a seven-year-old, he 

was rounding up all the loose 

pets in Patea and staging circus 

performances as their grand MC. 

He’d have chickens squawking, 

a three-legged dog running 

through a wall of fire. He had big 

imagination and talent but also 

huge commitment and discipline 

– a winning combination. 

You went to Patea to meet the 

people who knew him. Did you 

have any surprises? 

What hit me is how present 

he still is there today – in spite 

of his death in 2002 he’s still 

shoulder to shoulder with that 

community. 

Family and friends gave you 

access to previously unseen 

footage. What was your 

favourite find? 

The crown jewel of the film 

is the original tape cassette 

recording of Dalvanius and Ngoi 

Pewhairangi singing Poi E for the 

first time in a jam session at her 

kitchen table at Tokomaru Bay in 

1982. His cousin had the cassette 

hiding in a sock drawer for 32 

years. Hearing those voices 

from the past is eerie. Ngoi had 

written the lyrics but the paint 

is still wet on the song and you 

can hear them consolidating it 

together. He picks up his ukulele 

and goes, “How does that shift 

happen again?” and they let it rip 

one more time. It’s so special.

Canterbury’s weather updates

another Maori music No 1 

Why did Dalvanius ask Ngoi 

Pewhairangi to write Poi E for 

him? 

She’d written Prince Tui 

Teka’s hit E Ipo which Dalvanius 

produced. Realising Maori 

language could get airplay was a 

light bulb moment for him. The 

record company had allowed it 

because it had that big stanza in 

English; “My darling Missy, you 

are always on my mind . . .” So he 

visited Ngoi in Tokomaru Bay to 

ask for a song to perform at the 

Patea kapa haka festival. Both 

towns – East Coast and West 

Coast – had lost their freezing 

works. When he saw how tall his 

whanau became when they performed 

that song and the crowd’s 

response, he realised he could 

do something more with it. The 

fact a waiata could be the genesis 

for social change is so powerful. 

I think because the path was so 

organic and real it allowed for 

wider change to take place. 

How far have we come since 

Poi E? 

One of the bittersweet aspects 

of this story is that we haven’t 

had another Maori language 

song reach No 1. The challenge 

has been laid down for this generation. 

We need to remember 

that MPs make legislation but it’s 

artists who create change. 

The film premiered during 

Matariki – the Maori New Year. 

Was that planned? 

I wanted it to come out on 

Waitangi Day but it would’ve 

been a very different story 

because Chris Bourke sent 

me a two-hour interview he’d 

done with Dalvanius that really 

changed the game. I also used 

two interviews Dalvanius did 

with Henare Te Ua as a young

man in 1983 and in 1987 after 

he’s masterminded a world tour. 

It’s fitting the film comes out 

during Matariki – a time for 

remembering people who’ve 

passed and celebrating their contribution. 

Because it has taken 

several years to make, sadly 

some people instrumental to the 

production have passed away including 

Dalvanius’ eldest brother 

and my own mentor Eruera Nia. 

When did you learn Te Reo? 

I grew up in Christchurch 

where there were limited opportunities 

to speak Te Reo. Dad 

was a musician in Billy TK’s 

band. We spent a lot of time on 

the road and twice a year we’d 

drive up to Pukekohe to see 

whanau. Nana always told the 

best jokes in Maori. She’d really 

come alive when she was cracking 

jokes with her cousins. She 

was a big influence. 

Your first feature film Mt 

Zion was set in your Nana’s 

house in Pukekohe. How much 

of you is in that story? 

There’s a lot of my father and 

cousins but what motivates the 

main character, Turei, is definitely 

my story. That question of, 

“How far would I go to pursue 

my dream?” I got Jim Moriarty’s 

phone number and rang him so 

many times to beg him to let me 

into his theatre company. I was 

18 when I got in and spent two 

years on the road performing at 

high schools, marae and prisons 

around the country including 

three months inside Paparoa 

and Arohata Women’s Prisons 

helping “lifers” devise plays and 

songs to perform at the Christchurch 

Arts Festival. Celia Lashlie 

was the prison warden who 

made it happen. 

It’s time 

Why did you decide to try 

directing? 

As a male Maori actor, I found 

myself typecast in this role of 

leather-wearing guy with a beer 

in one hand. Then Don Selwyn 

came along with The Maori Merchant 

of Venice. To be in a Maori 

language film was culturally 

electric. A lot of relationships 

were forged – my wife Reikura 

and I played the leads. So our 

next project was a Maori Romeo 

and Juliet. 

What was your greatest 

challenge in making the Poi E 

documentary? 

Allowing Dalvanius’ voice to 

tell the story instead of my own; 

allowing the past and present 

to sing together on the same 

page and getting all the various 

formats to mesh while allowing 

them to exist within their own 

time signature. It’s a big responsibility 

to be honest. Fortunately 

his sister Barletta’s first words after 

watching the film were “Yup, 

that’s our story”. I felt grateful 

and humbled.

Landlords could face tax 

Abortion rates 

• By Shelley Robinson 

LANDLORDS OF derelict sites, 

which fall into disrepair after 

becoming makeshift shelters for 

the homeless, could be targeted 

with a new tax. 

At last week’s Development 

Forum, it recommended that city 

council staff should investigate 

a derelict site tax, after city 

councillor Jamie Gough said it was 

time it had tools at its disposal to 

force landlords to clean up their 

acts. 

It comes after the city council 

was left “relatively powerless” to 

deal with the Hotel All Seasons 

in Merivale last year, said Cr 

Gough. 

Squatters had moved into 

the building, which is owned 

by Pandey Hotel Corporation, 

causing it to become both a 

health hazard and a danger to the 

homeless frequenting it, he said. 

“There was so little we could do 

– we could write them (the landlords) 

a letter. We don’t have much 

in the tool kit,” he said. 

Since controversy surrounding 

the site, Cr Gough said Pandey 

hired a gardener and a caretaker. 

Other examples were Antonio 

Hall on Riccarton Rd and the 

former saleyards, he said. 

Cr Gough said a derelict site 

IN DISREPAIR: Antonio Hall on Riccarton Rd, is one example that 

could incur a derelict site tax, or a helping hand from the city 

council if a initiative by Cr Jamie Gough gets the go ahead. 

policy could also have “incentives,” 

which could include rates remissions 

for bringing buildings up to 

an acceptable standard. 

“It is fair we bring out the 

stick to landlords who have their 

property in a derelict state. But 

we also need to try and remove 

the barriers for people not taking 

action,” he said. 

The idea, still in its infancy, 

could see the proceeds of the tax 

given to those who predominately 

inhabit abandoned buildings in 

the city – the homeless. 

Another option is for the money 

to be used to beautify empty sites, 

said Cr Gough. 

up in over 30s 

• By Siobhan Watson 

MORE WOMEN over 30 

may be having abortions in 

Canterbury because they do 

not qualify for subsidised 

contraceptives. 

Statistics New Zealand published 

a table showing abortions 

for women aged 30 to 40 

years and over has increased 

7.3 per cent from 2014 to 2015. 

Christchurch Family 

Planning national medical 

adviser Dr Christine Roke 

said one of the reasons why 

this may be happening is 

because women over 30 do 

not have opportunities for the 

subsidies that women under 

30 receive. 

She said that long-acting 

contraceptives are more 

expensive than the pill or 

condoms, which means that 

women over 30 may not be 

able to afford them. 

‘’If you go to a GP and your 

not subsidised then it can cost 

about $100 to get long-acting 

contraceptive.’’ 

These long-acting contraceptives 

are more effective at 

preventing pregnancy than 

other forms of contraceptives, 

and she said this may partly 

be the reason why the number 

of abortions for women over 

30 has increased. 

Another reason for women 

over 30 having more abortions 

than women under 30 

is because of abnormalities in 

the fetus. 

‘’A small proportion of 

abortions are due to abnormalities 

and deformities 

in babies and these issues 

are more common in older 

people. 

“This may partly reflect the 

statistics,” Dr Roke said. 

She also said there had been 

an increase in Christchurch’s 

population which may also 

inflate statistics. 

She said although there had 

been an increase in abortions 

for those aged over 30, there 

had also been a decrease in 

abortions overall. 

The overall abortion rate 

has fallen by 38 per cent since 

2008. 

‘’I think it’s great the abortion 

ratio is going down, 

considering the fact the 

Christchurch population has 

gotten bigger.’’

KiwiSaver statements well read 

MOST KIWISAVER members 

are reading their annual 

statements but less than a 

quarter have checked to see if 

they are on track for the kind 

of retirement they want. 

Research by investment 

watchdog the Financial 

Markets Authority found 79 

per cent of members had read 

their annual statement. 

Paul Gregory, head of investor 

capability at the FMA said 

it had been surprised by the 

number of people that did read 

their statements. 

“This shows there is engagement 

which is encouraging 

and was surprising.” 

However, the research did 

find a gender and age split on 

who read annual statements 

thoroughly. 

Males over 60 were more 

likely to read their annual 

statements thoroughly while 

females aged 18 to 29 were 

least likely to. 

Females aged 18 to 29 were 

also the ones most likely to say 

they did not recall receiving a 

statement at all. 

For those who didn’t read 

the statement the biggest 

barriers were that it was too 

complicated or they weren’t 

interested in it. 

But just 23 per cent had 

checked to see if their 

KiwiSaver account was on 

track. 

Gregory said the statement 

should be a launchpad for 

people to think about whether 

at they were on track to have 

the retirement they want. 

“When this arrives through 

your letterbox, or in your 

email, it’s a great opportunity 

to check in with your goals. 

And, if you’re not happy, to 

check in with your KiwiSaver 

provider.” 

Of those who checked 

whether they were on track the 

most common way to do so 

was through an online calculator 

either on their provider’s 

website or through the sorted 

website. 

The research also asked 

people what extra information 

in the statement would 

help people them make 

better decisions about their 

retirement. 

More than 70 per cent said 

they wanted to see a lump 

sum figure for how much they 

would have at 65 and a further 

62 per cent would like to see 

what weekly figure that lump 

sum would give them. 

Another 37 per cent said 

they would like to see fees broken 

out in a dollar figure. 

Currently providers do not 

have to give that information. 

Gregory said the results 

of the survey would be used 

as part of a review of annual 

statements being worked on by 

itself, the Ministry of Business, 

Innovation and Employment 

and the Commission for 

Financial Capability. 

KiwiSaver providers have 

to send out an annual statement 

every year within three 

months of the end of the tax 

year on March 31. 

The research surveyed 2000 

people between May and June 

of which 1313 people were 

KiwiSaver members. 

Of those who were not 

KiwiSaver members most were 

over 60 and had an annual 

income below $50k.

Countdown to Rio 

Dickson chases golden dream 

The Rio de Janeiro Olympics begin in five weeks 

time. Sports reporter Gordon Findlater counts down 

to Rio, highlighting some of Canterbury’s brightest 

talents. This week, we look at sevens player Sam 

Dickson and his miraculous return from injury. 

LESS THAN three month’s ago 

Sam Dickson lay in the middle 

of the field in agony at the Hong 

Kong sevens tournament. 

His teammates were celebrating 

a last minute game winning 

try against Kenya. But Dickson 

was contemplating how bad the 

knee injury he had just sustained 

could be. 

“First of all, I thought it was 

just my MCL which is usually 

about eight weeks out. Then I 

went and had an MRI and found 

out the next day the anterior 

cruciate ligament) was ruptured 

which wasn’t great news. To be 

honest, I thought Rio was completely 

out of the picture.” 

A ruptured ACL would in 

almost any circumstance mean 

surgery and at least six months 

out of the game. 

The lure of the Olympic Games 

was enough for the 26-year-old 

to take a risk and go the non-traditional 

method of attempting to 

recover from the injury without 

surgery. A decision that would 

keep his Rio dream alive. 

The odds were not in Dickson’s 

favour. However, his knee recovered 

to the point where he could 

take part in the sevens trial camp 

three weeks ago. 

“I hadn’t done much field stuff 

by then. To be honest, I didn’t 

have a lot of confidence going 

into that, but I managed to get 

through it and I was pretty 

happy with the way i went.” 

With his knee holding up to 

the test, Dickson accomplished 

the goal that just a few month 

ago he would have seen as a long 

shot. Being named in the sevens 

squad for the Rio Olympics. 

Sevens didn’t enter Dickson’s 

mind until 2012, spending 17 

years coming through the grades 

as an emerging flanker. 

Dickson’s rugby career began 

as a five-year-old playing midget 

rugby for West Melton. He would 

play through the grades for the 

club, even playing afternoon 

games in the country competition 

after playing for his secondary 

school team, St Thomas, in 

the morning. 

After going on to play first 

XV rugby in his final year at 

St Thomas, Dickson spent two 

years playing for Marist Albion 

colts before rejoining his boyhood 

club, West Melton. He 

would go on to captain the side 

as well as lead the Ellesmere and 

Canterbury Country representative 

teams. 

He made the Canterbury NPC 

wider-training squad in 2012. 

But the catalogue of talented 

loose forwards in the Canterbury 

ranks meant opportunities were 

limited with the likes of Nasi 

Manu, George Whitelock, Luke 

Whitelock, Matt Todd, Kieran 

Read, Richie McCaw and Jordan 

Taufua among the ranks. 

Sir Gordon Tietjens was looking 

for a new crop of players to 

bring into his sevens squad in 

2012. 

Former Canterbury NPC 

coach Tabai Matson recognised 

something in Dickson that he 

believed could translate to the 

seven-man game and had the 

flanker attend a sevens training 

camp. 

After impressing at the camp, 

Dickson was selected to play in 

the 2012 Safari sevens tournament 

in Kenya. It was the first 

sevens tournament he had played 

in, having never previously 

played at secondary school or 

provincial level. 

“It was a bit of a shock to the 

system really. The altitude in 

Kenya was pretty high, plus we 

GOING FOR GOLD: Sam Dickson has recovered from a serious 

injury and is now gearing up for the Rio Olympics, where he 

hopes to win gold with the New Zealand Sevens squad. 

played six games in one day.” 

Tietjens was impressed with 

the debut and selected Dickson 

in the sevens squad for the upcoming 

Gold Coast tournament. 

Tweaking a hamstring a day out 

from the tournament, though, 

meant he was forced to wait for 

his New Zealand debut. 

Just a month later, he had his 

opportunity in Dubai. Dickson 

was contracted for the remainder 

of the season and claimed his 

first IRB sevens title in December 

2012 in South Africa. He 

would go on to win that year’s 

IRB Sevens World Series with 

New Zealand. 

Dickson’s career could have 

taken a very different path at one 

stage. 

In 2010, he was asked by a 

friend to play a game of AFL 

(Australian Rules) in Christchurch 

“I played a few games, learned 

the rules and just got better and 

better. All of a sudden i was playing 

for New Zealand and went to 

the International Cup in 2011.” 

Following his performances 

for New Zealand in Australia, 

Dickson was scouted by Australian 

club side St Kilda. But at 22, 

he was seen as being slightly too 

old to mould into a professional. 

With his path now well and 

truly heading towards Rio, Dickson 

is confident having another 

four weeks to get back to full 

fitness. 

If New Zealand is able to win 

gold at the sevens, the victory 

will surely taste even sweeter for 

Dickson who, at the moment, is 

feeling healthy, lucky and ready 

to play. 

Rio’s six-day sevens tournament 

begins on August 6.

The love of food involves science 

Ever wondered who is 

cooking your food when 

you go out to a cafe or 

restaurant? The Star 

continues its series talking 

with chefs. 

Mamacita’s owner and 

head chef – Jess Lynch 


JESS LYNCH had a molecular 

biology degree and was on her 

way to becoming a doctor when 

she threw it all in to pursue her 

love of food. 

She had finished her pre-med 

training, had been accepted into 

medical school and was a couple 

of weeks away from starting when 

she reached crisis-point. 

“I thought what am I doing? I 

don’t want to spend millions of 

years studying to get to a medical 

field where there are all sorts 

of issues – because in the United 

States it’s very complicated but 

you end up essentially working 

for insurance companies. So I 

decided to take a break and went 

back to what I always loved, 

which was cooking.” 

She now runs a popular food 

truck, Mamacita’s, which is often 

set up in Cathedral Square, and is 

negotiating contracts for her own 

Mexican restaurant, which she 

plans to open later this year. 

She grew up in the kitchen in 

Southern California, learning 

techniques from her Mexican 

grandmother, her Italian father 

and her mother who was amazing 

at everything, she said: “Everything 

she cooks turns out perfect”. 

Working as a chef had paid the 

bills while she studied, but cheffing 

also gave an interesting angle 

to the things she was learning. 

“The molecular biology of science 

and food go together really 

well. My love of food came first 

and science came afterward, so 

it was really interesting to apply 

those ideas to my cooking.” 

She originally worked as a 

pastry chef, creating wedding 

cakes and “hoity-toity” desserts, 

but found herself branching into 

other things. 

But she said her partner was 

facing a round of lay-offs at his 

job. He had been to New Zealand 

before and loved it, so he asked 

her what she thought about moving. 

“The States was looking pretty

SLOAN 

dire for working professionals, 

the outlook felt really bleak. So I 

thought I love adventure, I’ll go.” 

She applied for residency in 

New Zealand before she had even 

set foot in the country, and the 

minute she did, she said it was 

“love at first sight”. 

They both found work in 

Christchurch and she spent 

several years working for different 

cafes and restaurants, before she 

stumbled by chance on a listing 

for a food truck on Trade Me. 

The idea of creating a taco truck 

was planted, and grew from there, 

she said. 

She said the food truck worked 

well in the post-earthquake environment. 

“There’s been a different vibe 

after the earthquakes, a much 

more creative way of looking at 

things. There’s a lot more really 

gourmet food, and it has brought 

a younger vibe and life to the city 

which I find really exciting.” 

She said California-style Mexican 

food was “punchy and fresh” 

and less rich than classic Mexican 

food. To create it she had to specially 

import a lot of ingredients, 

and made most of the sauces by 

hand herself. 

Her secret ingredient was her 

range of vinegars, she said – she 

usually kept more than a dozen 

different kinds. 

“It comes back to the science of 

it, really. Many of the things vinegar 

does changes the food, but 

doesn’t have to taste like vinegar. 

Often people won’t know I’ve 

used vinegar, they’ll just know it 

tastes different somehow.” 

But some of her projects had 

outgrown the food truck and she 

hoped she could expand them in 

the restaurant.

cover the beef, if necessary. 

Bring liquid to the boil, then turn 

down the heat to a gentle simmer. 

Cover pan and simmer beef very 

gently for 1 and 1/2 hours. 

Remove beef to a carving board 

and slice to serve. Can be served hot 

or cold. 

Tip 

Corned beef is whole pieces of beef 

that have been cured or “corned” in 

seasoned brine (a flavoured salt solution). 

Corned beef can be purchased 

from butchers and will usually be 

labelled “corned silverside”. 

When calculating cooking time, as 

a rule of thumb you should allow 30 

minutes per 500g of corned silverside.

Gardening Advice with 

Congratulations! Today’s winning question came from Cheryl Anglesey 

QUESTION: I have just moved into a new place and would like to grow a tree/hedge along my 

back and side fence. The back fence has two fairly large trees right up close (in the neighbour’s) and 

the side fence has a tree too but not quite so near. I want something that will grow quickly, be hardy 

and reasonably easy to maintain. 

Be in to win a 

PRIZE 

PACK! 

$95 

ANSWER: Now is an ideal time 

to plant your hedge or trees. For 

Christchurch conditions, there are 

a few varieties that would suit. 

• Laurus nobilis – ‘Bay Tree’. 

This is a hardy and compact 

evergreen that also provides 

bay leaves for cooking. It can 

be easily trimmed to a two, 

three or four metre hedge, or 

grown as a tree on its own. 

• Photinia - ‘Red Robin’. A very 

attractive evergreen plant, with deep crimson new leaves in spring. Easy to grow, it 

prefers full sun but will still grow in dabbled light. Trim regularly to encourage a dense habit. 

• Prunus lusitanica – ‘Portuguese Laurel’. A large evergreen shrub or small tree, it can easily be 

pruned to form a dense hedge. It produces attractive white scented flowers in spring and is 

hardy in most conditions. 

Always prepare the site for your new plants thoroughly by adding Daltons Compost to the existing 

soil before and at the time of planting. Other products to try are Daltons Premium Planter Tabs 

and Daltons Premium Tree & Shrub Fertiliser. 

Check out our How To Grow guides on our website www.daltons.co.nz/how-to-guides 

for more helpful tips and advice. 

Don’t let frost get to your pruned roses 

THERE IS more written about 

pruning roses than almost any 

other aspect of their care. 

Yet, why do we prune our 

roses? 

Here are a few key reasons: 

Encourage new growth and 

more blooms. Maintain the 

health of the rose by removing 

old wood, improve air circulation 

within the bush. 

Maintain a specific shape, 

especially for climbing and 

pillar roses, and those that are 

pegged down. 

Not all roses have the same 

need to be pruned, some just 

need an annual “going over’’ 

after flowering to remove the 

dead wood. Other roses, most 

Portuguese Laurel 

notably the highly bred hybrid 

teas and floribundas, need regular 

pruning. If you garden on 

a light, sandy soil then prune 

your roses only lightly as they 

will not be able to support the 

vigorous new growth that hard 

pruning encourages. 

The time to tackle pruning 

is in the winter while they are 

dormant, before they burst into 

growth. In some areas of New 

Zealand, and in some seasons, 

there may seem to be almost 

no period of dormancy and so 

you must choose your moment 

carefully. So do not prune when 

there is still a risk of severe 

frost, as any new growth will be 

frosted and die back. 

We have Daltons Premium 

Rose packs to give away 

that include everything 

you need to grow 

roses with good bloom 

strength, colour and 

vigour. 

Roses are a wonderful 

addition to any garden, 

low maintenance and 

easy to grow. There are 

an extensive number of 

roses to choose from to 

add fragrance and bursts 

of colour to your garden. 

Send us your 

gardening question 

to be in to win! 

You will have to cut back 

to the next bud, reducing the 

plant further. 

Most bush roses flower on 

the current year’s growth. 

A hard prune will produce 

more vigorous new growth. 

Remove the oldest cane on the 

plant; this keeps the bush fresh 

and vigorous. 

Then reduce thick, strong 

stems by about half their height. 

Thin canes need to be cut back 

to one-third their height. 

Try to keep the centre of the 

plant open. A mess of spindly, 

twiggy growth in the middle 

of the plant restricts light and 

air circulation, encouraging 

disease. 

Each pack is valued at $95 and contains: 

• 2 x Daltons Compost 

• Daltons Premium Rose & Flower Fertiliser 

• Daltons Premium Tree & Shrub Fertiliser 

• Daltons Premium Flower Bed Mix 

• Daltons Premium Goldcote Rose &

Theatre/Arts 

Kate Sheppard 

loud and proud 

That Bloody Woman by Luke 

Di Somma and Gregory Cooper, 

directed by Kip Chapman. The 

Court Theatre until 30 July. 

Reviewed by Patricia Murchison 

YES IT’S loud, but it’s a wonderful, 

homegrown rock opera about 

Christchurch heroine Kate Sheppard. 

Esther Stevens was terrific as Kate. 

Her entrance was magical after a 

very funny introduction from Amy 

Straker and Phoebe Hurst as her 

women side kicks. The opening night 

audience gasped at the contrast. 

Geoffrey Dolan who played Prime 

Minister Richard Seddon was a perfect 

foil for Kate and her followers. 

He was large, devious and determined 

women were not going to be 

involved in his Parliament. 

History shows that the sheer 

number of women who signed Kate’s 

petition swayed Parliament. There 

were quieter moments where Kate’s 

private life was spoken/sung about. 

Andy Manning led the fantastic 

musicians who were such an integral 

part of the show. 

At the finish, everyone rose and 

clapped and cheered for a good 10 

minutes. 

I’d recommend this loud and happy 

affirmation of a life to everyone 

except those with sensitive hearing.

SEVERAL OF the 

country’s top comedians 

are set to perform at the 

Lincoln Event Centre in 

October. 

The Live in Lincoln 

event will feature Jeremy 

Corbett, host of TV3’s 

Seven Days, along with Ben 

Hurley, Justine Smith and 

Tom Furniss. 

Lincoln resident and 

promoter David Parlane 

organised the show – the 

first of several events he 

hopes to bring to the town. 

Mr Parlane said he had 

known Corbett when they 

were both working in radio 

in Palmerston North in the 

1980s. 

“He was my first port 

of call to be honest, so I 

contacted him and said 

‘hey, how about we do 

something like this comedy 

night?’” he said. 

“All of a sudden, within 

probably a week and a half, 

we had got four of the best 

comedians in New Zealand 

coming to Lincoln.” 

LIVE COMEDY:

October. 

Top comedians for show 

Mr Parlane said there 

was a need for more 

activities and events in 

Lincoln. 

“So this is basically the 

first of more to come. We 

have got a great facility 

down at the event centre 

which can hold 1000 people.” 

Doors will open at 6pm,

IT DOESN’T seem all that long 

ago that my brother and I used 

to park ourselves in front of the 

TV early on a Saturday morning 

to enjoy Fraggle Rock, Fat 

Albert and our favourite locally 

produced TV show, What Now. 

I loved the presenters, the skits 

and only ever dreamed of how 

cool it would be to be part of such 

a show. 

So it was a no-brainer when 

the opportunity arose to take my 

own girls to be part of the audience 

fun. 

We rallied some school friends 

to join us and my eldest was 

lucky enough to be asked to 

participate in a game (alongside 

Hats off to the What Now crew 

two other children) called ‘Use 

Ya Head’. 

The three of them had to 

stand high atop a 3m perch and 

catapult balloons of ‘gunge’ (cold, 

slimy goo) into the air in order 

to ‘land’ as many as possible in 

the small buckets strapped to the 

heads of their waiting mothers 

below. 

Not an easy task for a 6-year 

Melissa McDonnell 

old, but a challenge that was 

accepted with gusto. And why 

not? What kid wouldn’t seize the 

opportunity to freely throw such 

muck at their mother for a whole 

45 seconds and get away with it. 

She absolutely loved it (me, not so 

much). 

The rest of the morning was 

awesome. The show was packed 

with adventures, skits, games and 

loads of activity. 

Huge hats off to the What 

Now crew who were not only 

extremely professional in their 

approach, but such a friendly 

and fun bunch of people who 

magically navigated through a 

potentially chaotic mess of 30 

screaming kids to create a 

well-oiled and seamless adventure. 

Before we knew it, the two 

hours were up, and a bunch of 

happy children streamed out of 

the studio, full of smiles, stories 

and energy. 

When we got home, we 

plonked down in front of the 

TV to watch the recorded, final 

result. 

The girls thought it was 

hilarious to catch glimpses of 

themselves on the big screen, see 

the entire show in its uninterrupted 

glory and get a grasp 

on how such a programme is 

produced. 

This was such a fantastic experience 

for both me and my girls, 

and I especially love that we now 

share a memory of an experience 

that will forever link us back to 

our childhoods. 

A big thanks to the What Now 

crew for continually bringing 

such life and fun into the lives of 

us Christchurch kids – you guys 

rock.

Travel 

Star-studded tour of Tinsel Town 

• By Mike Yardley 

HOLLYWOOD DRIPS with 

international glamour. 

But how can you break through 

the Tinsel Town mystique and 

bask in the stardust? 

On my most recent visit, I set 

myself the mission of staking 

out some old-school glamour, 

celeb-heavy haunts and trending 

hotspots. 

All roads lead to the Hollywood 

Strip, or “the boulevard of broken 

dreams”, as my Red Line walking 

tour guide, Michael, preferred to 

call it. 

Red Line’s Behind the Scenes 

tour has become part of Hollywood 

folklore, expertly narrated 

and spiriting you into many 

storied nooks and crannies, that 

most tourists miss. www.redlinetours.com/la 

After admiring some of the 

legendary names lining Hollywood 

Boulevard’s Walk of Fame, 

Michael ushered us in what I 

think is the most unsung vestige 

of Hollywood glam: the Egyptian 

Theatre. 

Extensively restored and earthquake 

re-strengthened in recent 

years, this picture palace was the 

birthplace of the movie premiere 

and the movie star. 

Built by Sid Grauman in 1922, 

he used search lights for a premiere 

and it was where red carpet 

was first rolled out all the way to 

the street. 

Egyptian music and incense 

wafted through the courtyard, 

adding to the Egyptian motif, 

which was all the rage, given the 

epic excavations and discovery of 

King Tut’s tomb. 

Inside the theatre, I admired 

the two Egyptian dog statues, gifted 

by 20th Century Fox, which 

featured in Cleopatra, starring 

Elizabeth Taylor. The Red Line 

Tour is a great way to get inside 

this heritage-studded shrine. 

Five years later, Sid Grauman 

launched another lavish movie 

palace, the Chinese Theatre, 

which continues to host more 

world premieres than any other 

theatre on the planet. 

I’ve often wondered how the celebrity 

hand, and footprints, immortalised 

in the forecourt, first 

came about. Red Line’s Michael 

had the good oil. 

Sid Grauman created the first 

footprints by mistake – stepping 

into wet concrete as his theatre 

was being constructed. 

The foreman remarked: “Those 

footprints are going to be there 

forever,” and the rest is history. 

Pop into the Hollywood Museum, 

housed in the 1930s Max 

Factor building, where so many 

screen legends were transformed 

in the famous make-up rooms. 

Lucille Ball, Rita Hayworth, Judy 

Garland and Elizabeth Taylor 

were all primped and styled here 

– as was Marilyn Monroe. It was 

here that the brunette became the 

blonde bombshell. 

Pop into the landmark Hollywood 

Roosevelt Hotel, which 

is where Shirley Temple learnt 

to tap dance and where Marilyn 

Monroe’s first magazine shoot 

took place, shot by the Tropicana 

pool. 

That location is now a top celeb 

hideaway that you can gain access 

too. A true Hollywood oasis, the 

poolside Tropicana Café & Bar is 

a seductive all-day retreat. 

Enjoy a late breakfast or cheeky 

cocktail here. A star-studded 

haunt for close celebrity encounters 

– and the permanent presence 

of paparazzi, is The Ivy in 

Robertson Boulevard. 

It’s a great spot for breakfast or 

lunch: order up the cheap and 

cheerful homemade buttermilk 

pancakes and fresh ginger tea. 

If you notice swarms of tourists 

photographing the fast food joint, 

El Pollo Loco, on the corner of 

Serrano Ave and Sunset Boulevard, 

the reason is this is where 

a struggling young actor named 

Brad Pitt, would beckon customers 

into the store, dressed up as a 

chicken on the roadside. Nearby, 

on the Sunset Strip, pop into the 

auction house, Bonhams. 

They stage regular auctions and 

the loot inside this place rivals 

a museum. It is the number one 

clearing house for second-hand 

celebrity goods. 

I had a major star moment, in 

the elevator of my hotel, The Redbury. 

Cyndi Lauper swept into 

the lift with her entourage, chatty, 

charming and looking half of 

her 62 years of age. The Redbury, 

a boutique all-suites hotel, sits 

across the road from the iconic 

Capitol Records building. 

Glamorous, colourful and spacious, 

the 57 guest suites come 

complete with record players and 

vinyl collections. I played Duke 

Ellington on repeat. 

The quirky and eye-catching art 

pieces, sprinkled throughout the 

property are pure escapism. 

I loved the hip Middle Easterninspired 

Cleo restaurant and 

the indoor-outdoor library for 

handcrafted cocktails. Plus there’s 

a complimentary BMW house car 

available for pick-up or drop-off 

within three miles. 

Accommodation rates are not 

eye-watering – and you never 

know who you’ll bump into.

HIGH SCHOOL ENROLMENTS 

[Edition datE] 3 


New Christchurch schools 

to offer students more 

Avonside Girls’ and shirley Boys’ will 

be the first single sex secondary schools in 

new Zealand’s history to share a campus 

– an arrangement their principals say will 

enable the schools to offer their students 

new opportunities. 

The schools are to be built on part of 

Qeii Park, next to the Christchurch City 

Council’s eastern recreation and sport 

Centre. 

Avonside Girls’ High school Principal 

sue Hume says the campus will be brand 

new and state of the art. 

“each school will have its own teaching 

spaces and students will spend most of 

their day in a single sex environment. 

That’s important to us. research shows 

that single sex education benefits both girls 

and boys…boys do better academically 

and girls participate more. That’s because 

they have space to learn and focus away 

from the opposite gender,” says sue Hume. 

John laurenson says the new campus is 

a step forward. 

“Because we are going to work together, 

we’ll be able to offer more. For example, 

we’ll be sharing some facilities, including 

a performing arts auditorium, theatre 

and cultural space, which enables us to 

build bigger and better assets,” says John 

laurenson. 

Another benefit is that the students 

will be able to interact with and learn 

alongside peers from their partner school. 

“students from both schools will share 

buses to and from the campus, they’ll all 

be able to use the café, our new library 

and learning centre and our other shared 

facilities. This means that not only will 

they have all the benefits of a single sex 

education, they’ll have social opportunities 

not available at other single sex schools,” 

says sue Hume. 

The Ministry of education is currently 

working on how the new schools will 

be zoned but the schools are focusing 

on catering to residents who live east of 

Colombo street. 

“Because we will be servicing a wide 

area, we will be establishing a network of 

buses to service the campus,” says John 

laurenson. 

Best of all, sue Hume says the new 

campus will open in 2019 so is not too far 

away. 

“in fact many of our current students 

will be making the journey to the new 

campus with us and those who join our 

schools in the next two years will spend 

their senior years there. it’s been a long 

and sometimes hard road to get to the 

new campus, but we are confident we’re on 

track to create something even better than 

what we had before the earthquakes.”

SCHOOL HOLIDAY ATTRACTIONS 

Become a sleuth and 

solve a whodunnit! 

Mystery NIGht at the Museum takes 

place in the July school holidays and 

promises a fun time for young detectives 

visiting Canterbury Museum during the 

four nights of July 12, 14, 19 and 21. 

A crime scene in the foyer reveals the 

‘Waitaha diamond’ has been stolen. 

Following the theme of a ‘whodunnit’ 

the Museum team have created clues 

throughout the galleries leading families 

on a journey of discovery as they 

eliminate suspects and narrow down their 

search for the diamond thief. 

The opportunity to win prizes for 

themed costumes and for solving the 

‘whodunnit’ are a big drawcard.

a large car park and great café, the school 

holidays will be an excellent time to check it 

out for yourself.

three age specific scavenger hunts on offer. 

This year the theme for these activities is 

UFos and Aliens. The royal New zealand 

Air Force has been receiving reports of UFo 

sightings since 1952, now the Museum is 

offering kids the opportunity to come and 

join the hunt for them. older kids can have 

a go at translating an alien message. each of 

the $6 scavenger hunts receives a prize when 

completed.

Thursday 14, tuesday 19 and finishes 

on Thursday 21 July from 5.30 pm to 

8 pm. entry is free, but donations are

desk. take it home, follow the instructions 

and then enter either online or by bringing 

your UFo back to the Museum for display.

Kids and adults can also check out 

the Mosquito Mission flight simulator, 

which has recently been upgraded with 

high definition graphics and a totally new 

mission to save the prisoners of Amiens. 

Plus it’s not too late to book the kids on 

the Museums holiday programme titled 

‘Under the Wire’. running from 8 till 3 daily.

HOW TO PLAY 

It’s like sudoku: each 

vertical and horizontal 

line has to contain 

the numbers 1-6, and 

the numbers can’t be 

repeated in any row or 

column. 

But it’s sudoku with a 

twist: The numbers in 

each heavily outlined 

set of squares, called 

cages, must produce the 

number in the top corner. 

For example, 5+ means 

the numbers add up to 5, 

9x means the numbers 

multiply to equal 9. 

TIP: Numbers can be repeated in a cage, as long as they are not in the 

same line or row.

Tedesco credits mystery mentor for recovery 

James Tedesco says a 

secret mentor has helped 

him recover from injury to 

take a place in the New 

South Wales State of Origin 

squad for game three next 

week. 

TEDESCO ENDURED an 

equally arduous task recovering 

from the mental demons 

of debilitating knee injuries as 

he did overcoming the physical 

aspect of it. 

But the 23-year-old told The 

Sydney Morning Herald that a 

mystery mentor – who he was 

referred to by Tigers and NSW 

teammate Aaron Woods – has 

played a significant part in his 

recovery which has led him to 

the NSW jersey after 18 months 

of hot pursuit. 

“He’s someone I started seeing 

after all my injuries. He’s really 

helped me in my career. He sees 

Woodsy (Aaron Woods) every 

week as well. 

“I think that’s most of the 

battle, getting your head space 

right. 

“I’m feeling confident in my 

body and having him to speak 

to every week has helped me 

mentally,” Tedesco said. 

He has endured his fair share 

of heartache through what has 

been a roller coaster start to his 

career. 

Few have forgotten the torture 

the then teenager suffered being 

stretchered off Leichhardt Oval 

in the opening minutes of his 

debut after rupturing his anterior 

cruciate ligament. Then there 

was the disappointment of a 

shoulder injury on the eve of this 

year’s Origin series. 

But Tedesco has taken solace 

in the mystery mentor who, 

despite not possessing a sports 

psychologist degree, has managed 

to have a positive influence 

on the mindset of the players he 

comforts. 

Tedesco proved too “irresistible” 

for Laurie Daley to ignore 

after passing up the opportunity 

to bring him in for game two at 

Suncorp Stadium. 

“We had to get [Tedesco] into 

the side somewhere and I didn’t 

think it would be right putting 

him on the wing. He’s a fullback 

and deserves a chance.” 

Tedesco looked certain to get 

in game one, only for another 

injury setback to deny him of his 

maiden NSW jersey.

In Brief 

ALL STAR BASKETBALL 

The region’s top young basketballers 

will take to the court tomorrow in 

celebration of their accomplishments 

this season. Cowles Stadium will 

host the 2016 McDonald’s All Star 

game. The east and west squads are 

made up of the top performers in the 

boys’ Thompson Trophy and girls’ 

Whelan Trophy secondary school 

competitions. Burnside High’s Toby 

Gillooly and Isaiah Morris will be 

two starters to watch on the boys’ 

east team. Quinn Clinton and Jack 

Ansell, of Christchurch Boys’ High, 

will star for the boys’ west team, along 

with Cashmere High student Connor 

McLaughlin. The girls’ all star game 

begins at 4.30pm followed by the boys. 

RUGBY LEAGUE CAMP 

Four players have been selected from 

the southern region to attend the 

under-16 New Zealand Rugby League 

performance camp in Rotorua. Martin 

and Fidow-Kele are both students at 

St Thomas’ of Canterbury College 

and will both represent the school at 

this year’s NZRL National Secondary 

Schools Tournament. Martin, 15, plays 

club league for the Hornby Panthers 

and has represented Canterbury and 

the South Island at age group level. 

Fidow-Kele, 16, plays for the Linwood 

Keas and also plays for the St Thomas 

first XV rugby union side. The camp 

will run from July 9-1. 

Grand final rematch 

• By Gordon Findlater 

THIS WEEKEND’S round of 

the UC Championship will be 

headlined by a rematch of last 

year’s grand final. 

St Bede’s College took the 

honours last August, defeating 

Shirley Boys 32-13 in the grand 

final. 

With just four rounds 

remaining in the competition 

neither side is assured of a spot 

in this year’s play-offs. 

Shirley looked poised to be 

a sure thing for the top four a 

fortnight ago, but two successive 

losses to Nelson College 

and St Thomas in the space 

of four days has put a dent in 

their armour. 

“It’s very difficult when 

you’re playing three games 

in the space of eight days. 

We came back from Nelson 

with three frontline forwards 

out with injury and illness,” 

Shirley Boys’ rugby administrator 

John Fox said. 

However, Fox is confident 

that a shift in mentality from 

the team’s last two encounters 

can get them back in the win 

column. 

“We scored in the first five 

REMATCH: Shirley Boys and St Bede’s will meet on 

Saturday in a rematch of last year’s UC Championship final. 

minutes against St Thomas and 

then relaxed. It just shows how 

close this competition is,” Fox 

said. 

Fatigue won’t be an issue for 

St Bede’s who are coming off 

their bye weekend, something 

coach Gerry Davidson believes 

could work in his team’s 

favour. 

“I think everybody enjoys 

their bye weekend. We’ve been 

going since the end of April 

now and with a couple of 

traditional mid-week fixtures 

in June, it was nice to have a 

break,” Davidson said. 

St Bede’s is currently seventh 

in the championship. Although 

they only have six wins from 

10 games, they find themselves 

right in the play-off hunt, 

three points from a play-off 

spot. 

“I think for the first time in 

a very long time, anyone in the 

top eight, or even 10 teams, has 

a chance. 

“Nobody can take any results 

for granted this year,” Davidson 

said. 

St Bede’s has one member 

from last year’s team that won 

the UC Championship in this 

year’s squad. 

Shirley have plenty of boys 

with memories of last year’s 

final defeat, with 15 players 

retained. 

Saturday’s grand final rematch 

will screen live on CTV 

this Saturday. 

Kick-off is at 2.45pm from 

Shirley Boys’ High.

THE INJURY-HIT Melbourne 

Rebels will be sweating on a 

batch of fitness tests later this 

week as coach Tony McGahan 

faces the prospect of fielding a 

severely under-strength team 

against the Crusaders in Christchurch 

on Saturday. 

As if the prospect of heading 

to New Zealand wasn’t daunting 

enough, captain Nic Stirzaker 

(ankle), fullback Mike Harris 

(ankle) and locks Lopeti Timani 

and Luke Jones (both concussion) 

will face tests before their 

availability is known. 

But in somewhat better news 

for the now out-of-contention 

Rebels, wingers Jonah Placid 

(nose) and Sefa Naivalu (leg) 

have been declared fit to play 

despite coming off early in last 

weekend’s home loss to the 

Stormers. 

The Crusaders will receive 

a much needed boost to their 

backline with the return of All 

Black Ryan Crotty. 


The centre sustained a calf 

injury in the final test against 

Wales, but is ready to get back 

into it after watching his team 

mates suffer at the hands of the 

Chiefs in Suva. 

Captain Kieran Read is 

expected to be rested for Saturday’s 

game, while All Black prop 

Joe Moody is out with a neck 

injury. 

The Crusaders side to take on 

the Rebels will be named later 

today.

Driven 

Skoda Fabia wagon a 

good value purchase 

• By Ross Kiddie 

THE JUNE 23 referendum 

which resulted in Great 

Britain’s withdrawal from 

the European Union 

has taken the world by 

surprise. 

There will be a long 

period of global financial 

uncertainty before stability 

returns and that will also 

affect many aspects of our 

down under economies. 

In the short term, 

imported goods will most 

certainly rise, including 

motor vehicles, especially 

those sourced from 

Europe. 

That being the case, 

there’s probably no better 

time to buy a European 

car, and if your budget is 

a little restricted but you 

need a reliable practical 

car, Skoda has the answer. 

A new Fabia has just 

landed and it lists from 

$19,990. It arrives here in 

three variants, and I was 

lucky enough to land a 

drive in the range-topping 

station wagon which, incidentally, 

lists at an amazing 

$26,990, making it, 

what I believe to be one of 

the bargain purchases in 

today’s new car market. 

The Fabia wagon, or 

Combi, as Skoda badge 

it, is powered by a 1.2- 

litre, four-cylinder engine. 

Before you scoff at its 

meagre displacement, bear 

in mind that it produces 

81kW and has a healthy 

175Nm of torque thanks 

to turbocharged boost. If 

you take into account the 

areas where peak power 

and maximum torque 

are developed (4600rpm- 

5600rpm and 1400rpm- 

4000rpm respectively), 

there is an unimpeded 

supply of power from 

very low in the rev band, 

providing a spirited drive 

through a seven-speed 

direct shift automatic gearbox. 

If fuel usage is also an 

important buying criteria, 

the Fabia Combi is listed 

with a 4.8-litre per 100km 

(58mpg) combined cycle 

average. 

You don’t have to try 

hard to replicate that, I 

wasn’t gentle with the 

throttle during my time 

in the test car, yet it was 

easy to have the fuel usage 

readout listing around 

6l/100km (47mpg), that 

along with an instantaneous 

readout of 4.6l/100km 

(62mpg) on the highway 

cruising a steady 100km/h 

(engine speed 2050rpm). 

I’ve often written about 

SKODA FABIA COMBI: Volkswagen-based engineering. 

the Czech Republic’s engineering 

prowess, and if 

you combined that with 

Volkswagen’s manufacturing 

ideology of quality and 

efficiency you won’t be 

disappointed with Fabia. 

The entire package is one 

of practicality and functionality. 

• Price – Skoda Fabia 

Combi TSi, $26,990 

• Dimensions – 

Length, 4257mm; 

width, 1732mm; 

height, 1467mm 

• Configuration: Fourcylinder, 

front-wheeldrive, 

1197cc, 81kW, 

175Nm, seven-speed 

automatic. 

• Performance – 

0-100km/h, 9.6sec 

• Fuel usage– 

4.8l/100km 

Take it’s 505-litre load 

space for example, extending 

to 1370-litres, the 

wagon section is cavernous 

for what is deemed to 

be a small car. That doesn’t 

come at the cost of rear 

occupant space, the Fabia 

can still be considered a 

marginal five-seater, head 

and leg room is satisfactory. 

Up front it is the same, 

the seating position is constantly 

comfortable, and 

the controls fall readily to 

hand. It’s fair to say the 

Fabia isn’t overly complicated, 

there aren’t a lot of 

functions to speak of, but 

the essentials are there, 

and there is enough kit to 

still consider the purchase 

a bargain. 

I took the test car on 

my usual high country 

drive beneath the Malvern 

Hills and found it to be 

a spirited, well-handling 

car which quickly endears 

itself. Handling-wise it 

is directional with quick 

turn-in and positive steering 

feel. Providing the 

grip are 215/45 x 16in 

Bridgestone Potenza performance 

tyres, what 

they lack in size they 

make up for in quality, 

they are sticky yet also 

quiet, even on our coarse 

chip seal. 

There aren’t any 

surprises within the 

suspension, but if you 

take into account that 

the floorpan is essentially 

Volkswagen Polo-based, 

you can guarantee 

a sophisticated ride 

along with spring and 

damper rates that arrest 

body movement when 

confronted with a quick 

corner or two, and if you 

really want to get serious, 

a sport suspension package 

is available, it also includes 

bigger wheels. But even 

in standard form the 

Fabia wagon is an adept 

handler. 

Becasue the engine 

develops its power low 

in the rev band and the 

constant supply of gearing 

there is a seamless flow 

of energy. It is responsive 

and willing, easily offering 

the performance needed 

for a highway overtake or 

a quick burst on a hilly 

incline. If you take into 

account its 9.6sec time 

to make 100km/h from a 

standstill, it is a spirited 

car for the inner-city traffic 

light grand prix. 

Regular readers will 

relate to my enthusiasm 

for the traditional station 

wagon. Sadly, the sport 

utility vehicle has almost 

spelt the end of that concept, 

but the Fabia Combi 

really appealed to me, it 

is car that feels just right 

from the moment you hop 

into it. 

I’m hoping that amidst 

all the uncertainty in 

Europe at the moment that 

good cars like the Fabia, 

and the hundreds of others 

which find their way from 

the Continent to New 

Zealand, won’t be affected 

by Britain’s decision to go 

it alone.
