BLOCKED: Buses have to avoid cars parked in the Riccarton Rd bus lane during morning operational hours. 

New bus lanes ‘unusable’ 

• By Anan Zaki 

NEW BUS lanes on Riccarton 

Rd are being ignored by 

motorists less than a month 

after they were opened. 

The bus lanes between Deans 

Ave and Harakeke St are part 

of the recently completed $2.57 

million Riccarton Rd renewal 

and resurfacing works. 

The bus lanes opened on 

November 1. 

Red Bus chief executive Paul 

McNoe said the Riccarton Rd 

bus lanes are “unusable” when 

cars are parked. 

“Because of the number of 

cars parked are substantial . . . 

it’s unavailable for its intended 

use,” Mr McNoe said. 

City council transport 

operations manager Steffan 

Thomas said 29 warning 

letters have been handed out 

to drivers for ignoring the bus 

lanes.

Cycle and 

walking 

tracks 

add to 

fire threat 

• By Louis Day 

UNAUTHORISED cycle and 

walking tracks in the Port Hills 

could contribute to the start of 

another disastrous fire. 

Lyttelton resident Wendy Everingham 

said the city council desperately 

needed to create policy 

that stopped people from creating 

their own cycle and walking 

tracks across the Port Hills. 

“If the water is on an ordinary 

surface it is dispersing through 

that land mass more evenly, but as 

soon as you open up the land with 

tracks you create little streams 

and water bypasses parts of the 

reserve and you get some places 

which are drier than others.” 

Mrs Everingham said she was 

appalled by the number of unauthorised 

tracks that were being 

made on the Port Hills. 

“Up on the Urumau Reserve I 

saw someone had come through 

and cut down quite a lot of trees, 

so they were opening up an area 

that was supposed to be for forest.” 

Mrs Everyingham said she had 

also noticed an unauthorised 

track which went through Steadfast 

land and the Whakaraupo 

reserve.

SOUTHERN VIEW 

ON PAGE 1 today, we look at how stopping people from 

forming their own walking and biking tracks in the Port Hills is 

vital to prevent a repeat of last year’s fire. 

As the city council’s Kate Russell said, these unauthorised 

tracks could have a serious impact on the safety of people using 

them and the state of the hills. 

Some of them venture into areas that were closed by the city 

council for a reason. The threat of rockfall is even present in 

a few places. The Port Hills are one of Christchurch’s biggest 

assets and it is time people stopped taking them for granted. 

Another issue which is getting residents riled up, is the illegal 

dumping of rubbish around our streets (page 5). 

A number of people have taken to Facebook to vent their 

frustration. If you see it happening don’t forget to take a photo 

and report it.

Alcohol ban for Linwood Village 

DRINKING alcohol on the 

streets and parks around 

Linwood Village will be banned 

permanently. 

A bylaw change was approved 

by the city council on 

Thursday, which will apply 

around-the-clock, seven days 

a week and cover the blocks 

between Fitzgerald Ave, Armagh 

St, England St and Hereford St, 

including Doris 

Lusk Reserve. 

The city 

council put in 

place a temporary 

liquor ban 

late last year in 

a bid to try and 

Deon Swiggs 

reduce the high 

level of alcoholfuelled 

crime 

and disorder in the area. 

Central Ward city councillor 

Deon Swiggs said the Linwood- 

Central-Heathcote Community 

Board strongly supported the alcohol 

ban becoming permanent 

as it wanted Linwood Village 

to be a safe, welcoming place to 

shop or visit. 

“Before the temporary alcohol 

ban came into force residents 

and shopkeepers reported 

feeling intimidated and unsafe 

because of the anti-social behaviour 

displayed by people drinking 

in the street,” he said. 

Cr Swiggs said the ban had 

been effective in reducing the 

number of concerns regarding 

drinking on the streets in the 

area. 

“Since the ban has been in 

place there have been fewer 

alcohol-related issues in the area 

and the community is signalling 

they are feeling safer so making 

the ban permanent is a positive 

step, although there are still 

deeper social issues that we must 

continue to address.” 

The updated bylaw also makes 

permanent the temporary alcohol 

ban that has been applied 

since 2015 to the streets immediately 

surrounding Riccarton 

Park racecourse on the Saturday 

in November when the New

It includes a new clause that 

enables the city council’s chief 

executive to impose a temporary 

alcohol ban for large scale events 

in specified areas including 

Hagley Park and Rawhiti Domain. 

Currently it can take up to six 

months to get a temporary ban 

approved.

GREAT READS INSTORE NOW 

Becoming 

by Michelle Obama 

In a life filled with meaning and accomplishment, Michelle Obama 

has emerged as one of the most iconic and compelling women 

of our era. As First Lady of the United States of America-the first 

African-American to serve in that role-she helped create the most 

welcoming and inclusive White House in history, while also 

establishing herself as a powerful advocate for women and girls 

in the U.S. and around the world, dramatically changing the ways 

that families pursue healthier and more active lives, and standing 

with her husband as he led America through some of its most 

harrowing moments. In her memoir, a work of deep reflection 

and mesmerizing storytelling, Michelle Obama invites readers 

into her world, chronicling the experiences that have shaped 

her-from her childhood on the South Side of Chicago to her years 

as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work, 

to her time spent at the world’s most famous address. Warm, 

wise, and revelatory, Becoming is the deeply personal reckoning 

of a woman of soul and substance who has steadily defied 

expectations-and whose story inspires us to do the same. 

Houses of Aotearoa 

by Andrew Patterson 

In Maori culture, architecture is approached as a construction 

of beliefs: a building must emulate and amplify personalities, 

hopes and aspirations, becoming the physical expression of 

those who inhabit it. These ideas and others are the inspirations 

behind the house projects of New Zealand architect Andrew 

Patterson, who has been designing houses and civic projects 

in the country for over thirty years and was awarded the New 

Zealand Institute of Architects 2017 Gold Medal. This book 

showcases seventeen of Patterson’s recent houses, in some of the most dramatic locations in New Zealand, 

from stunning seascape retreats to hillside cabins. Each house reveals how Patterson’s architecture responds 

to the region’s breathtaking landscapes to tell the story of the country’s cultural history and to create a sense 

of place and belonging. This fully illustrated, large-format overview is interspersed with thematic sections that 

present Patterson’s key influences and the culture and lifestyles of New Zealand more broadly, particularly 

Maori language, history and mythology. 

Homebody 

A Guide to Creating Spaces you Never Want to Leave 

by Joanna Gaines 

In Homebody, Joanna Gaines walks you through how to create 

a home that reflects the personalities and stories of the people 

who live there. Using examples from her own farmhouse as well 

as a range of other homes, this comprehensive guide will help 

you assess your priorities and instincts, as well as your likes and 

dislikes, with practical steps for navigating and embracing your 

authentic design style. Room by room, Homebody gives you an 

in-depth look at how these styles are implemented as well as how 

to blend the looks you’re drawn to in order to create spaces that 

feel distinctly yours. A removable design template at the back of 

the book offers a step-by-step guide to planning and sketching out 

your own design plans. The insight shared in Homebody will instill 

in you the confidence to thoughtfully create spaces you never want 

to leave. 

The Great Cave Rescue 

The extraordinary story of the Thai boy soccer team 

trapped in a cave for 18 days 

by James Massoda 

Keen to go exploring after soccer practice, the boys of the Wild Boars 

soccer team ignored the sign at the cave entrance warning visitors not 

to enter during the monsoon season. What followed was a high-stakes 

international mission that very nearly didn’t succeed. The ordeal riveted 

millions around the world. First came the awful news that twelve Thai 

boys, aged 11 to 17, and their young coach were missing. Then the 

flickering video of the huddle of anxious and hungry boys found by a pair 

of British divers nine days later. But the most difficult part was yet to come. 

Monsoon rains had raised the water level in the cave system, and the 

boys were trapped in an air pocket, surrounded by rising muddy water, 

over two kilometres from the cave entrance. None of them knew how to 

dive. Expert British, Australian, American, Chinese and other international 

divers joined the Thai Navy SEALs and hundreds of local volunteers to 

mount one of the most risky and complex rescue operations the world 

has ever seen. Australian doctor Richard Harris and his dive partner, Craig 

Challen.

Anger grows over illegal 

rubbish dumping 


FRUSTRATION is 

mounting over rubbish 

bags being dumped on 

roads. 

A number of residents 

went on Facebook to report 

that black rubbish bags 

have been dumped near the 

Quarry View subdivision 

in Halswell and in rural 

Selwyn since November 

last year. 

Prebbleton resident 

Miriam Martin said on 

most occasions the bags are 

full of discarded noodles or 

other food scraps. 

But household rubbish 

has also been dumped. Last

Fire threat from tracks 

•From page 1 

City council acting head 

of parks Kate Russell said 

that the illegal track that 

entered Steadfast land and 

Whakaraupo reserve had 

been closed and rangers 

were investigating other 

tracks in the Port Hills. 

“We have out signs 

reading ‘track closed, 

no access.’ We have 

discussed with local 

community users and 

reserve committees that 

the track is not to be used 

and developed any further. 

The track was mown 

with a weed-eater so it 

was found dumped on 

Tosswill Rd, Prebbleton. 

“It’s a bit weird as to 

where they are coming 

from,” Dr Martin said. 

The rubbish is also only 

found on quiet rural roads, 

she said. “They are obviously 

going through the 

back roads from Halswell 

or to Halswell,” Dr Martin 

said. 

She notified the Selwyn 

District Council about the 

rubbish last week. “The 

food scraps are attracting 

flocks of birds, rats and 

mice. It’s a health hazard,” 

Dr Martin said. 

Others business pay to 

have their rubbish cleared 

she said. “It’s criminal 

will be allowed to grass 

over. Fencing work may 

be carried out to further 

exclude access to the track.” 

Ms Russell warned that 

some of the unauthorised 

tracks ventured into areas 

of potential rockfall risk. 

“This [Steadfast and 

Whakaraupo reserve land] 

track did follow a route that 

would take people into a 

zone of rockfall that has 

not been mitigated or had 

recent inspections.”

“We’re not allowed to

the road for good reason. 

You don’t have a right 

to pollute other people’s

council’s.” 

Said a Selwyn District 

Council spokesman: “We 

have received complaints 

about rubbish being 

dumped in the Prebbleton 

area, and have removed it 

once we have been made

Dr Martin urged more

risk of rockfall was in those 

areas. 

Ms Russell asked people 

to consider the consequences 

of their actions 

before forming their own 

tracks. 

“If people carry out 

unauthorised work there 

is the risk of unsafe tracks 

being developed as well 

as serious impacts to

FreshChoice, SuperValue ditch single-use plastic bags 

FRESHCHOICE and 

SuperValue are no longer 

providing single-use plastic 

carrier bags at their 

checkouts. 

The supermarkets went plastic 

bag-free on Tuesday. 

Group general manager 

Robert Smith said he is thrilled 

to have gone single-use plastic 

carrier bag-free earlier than 

expected. 

The original target was the end 

of the year. 

“It’s great to see how positive 

our stores have been about this 

change,” he said. 

“They are 100 per cent behind 

this initiative and have played 

a huge part in ensuring we are 

single-use plastic bag-free ahead 

of our target date. 

“Millions of single-use 

plastic bags are ending up in 

our waterways and oceans and 

harming our marine 

species. There is no doubt 

that they are a significant 

environmental issue and we’re 

glad to be removing them from 

our stores.” 

Customers are being 

encouraged to bring their 

own reusable bags. But for 

customers who forget, there will 

also be a number of alternative 

options available to purchase instore 

with prices starting from 

20c. 

“The best option is for our 

customers to bring their own 

bags when they shop with us 

and it’s encouraging to see how 

many customers have already 

started doing this,” Mr Smith 

said. 

“I’m sure we will see more 

and more customers bringing 

their bags as they get used to the 

change.” 

Bid to ease traffic in Redcliffs 

Changes to 

keep school 

pupils safe 


MOTORISTS WILL no longer be 

able to turn right from Main Rd 

into Beachville Rd in Redcliffs if 

a new traffic plan goes ahead. 

The change is part of the city 

council’s Redcliffs transport 

project, which looks to 

accommodate the new school at 

Redcliffs Park. The school is set 

to open at the start of 2020. 

The city council has also 

proposed a new 40km/h school 

speed zone, which would cover 

a portion of Beachville Rd, 

Celia St and a small section of 

McCormacks Bay Rd. 

Redcliffs Residents’ Association 

secretary Pat McIntosh said the 

changes need to be made to cope 

with the traffic created by the 

relocation of the school. 

“It certainly does need 

alterations to cope with the fact 

the school will create a lot more 

traffic. Personally, I think the 

business of putting the school 

there is nonsense and traffic is 

only one of the reasons.” 


proposed moving the bus stop 

opposite 5 Main Rd 225m 

towards Redcliffs Village, about 

a 2-3min walk from its current 

location. 

CHANGES: Motorists will not be able to turn right from Main Rd into Beachville Rd if planned changes go ahead. 

City council head of transport 

Richard Osborne said the 

changes would ensure the 

safety of students, while easing 

congestion in the area. 

“The proposed changes seek 

to slow traffic on Main Rd and 

ensure that all children walking 

or cycling to the new school have 

access to a conveniently-located 

and safe crossing point.” 


proposed to remove the 

pedestrian crossing opposite 45 

Main Rd and replace it with a 

pedestrian refuge. 

Mr Osborne believes removing 

the right turn lane at the Main 

Rd Beachville Rd intersection 

is key to easing congestion and 

enhancing pedestrian safety. 

“Without a right turn 

restriction, a queue of vehicles 

waiting to turn would block the 

main traffic flow. It’s anticipated 

that the proposed right turn 

restriction will help minimise 

delays and improve visibility for 

pedestrians.” 

•Public consultation on 

the transport plan closes 

on December 17. The plan 

will be finalised by the city 

council in February and work 

is proposed to start in April.

18 and too young to buy beer 

Alcohol store 

denies teen 

on birthday 


AN AVONHEAD teen was left 

with a bitter taste on his 18th 

birthday after a liquor store 

refused to sell him beer. 

Car yard worker Andrew 

Winton turned 18 on November 

13. 

To celebrate his birthday with 

work colleagues at Sockburn’s 

Avon City Ford, Mr Winton 

went to buy some beers at Coach 

Corner Liquor on Yaldhurst Rd. 

It was his first time buying 

alcohol. 

He provided his driver licence 

to prove he turned 18 on the 

day, but to his surprise the shop 

assistant refused to sell him the 

beer. 

Mr Winton said the shop 

assistant told him he wasn’t old 

enough, and that he had to be 

18 years and one day old to buy 

alcohol. 

“It was just bizarre.” 

“I told him I’m 18 and that I 

can buy it, but he told me it’s the 

rule and I said, no, I don’t think 

it is,” he said. 

Mr Winton decided not to 

argue and left without his beers. 

Police confirmed people can 

purchase alcohol on their 18th 

birthday. 

Coach Corner Liquor shop 

SOBERING: Avonhead resident Andrew Winton was refused beer for not being old enough on 

his 18th birthday. 

assistant Sunny Limbachiya told 

Western News that he was the 

one who refused to sell beer to 

Mr Winton on his 18th birthday. 

Mr Limbachiya blamed a 

calendar at the shop for his 

actions. “We have this calendar 

that we use and that calendar 

says ‘born after’. So I was 

confused.” Mr Limbachiya said 

he regretted the incident and 

said it will not be repeated. 

Said Mr Winton: “For my first 

time [buying beer] it was pretty 

unfortunate.” 

He still managed to enjoy 

a drink with his family that 

night. 

LEARN: The city council is 

focusing on an educational 

approach to teach motorists 

about the bus lane rules rather 

than fine or tow their vehicles. 

New bus lanes 

on Riccarton 

Rd ‘unusable’ 

•From page 1 

However, no vehicles have 

been towed and no infringement 

notices have been issued yet, Mr 

Thomas said. 

“Education is an important 

component to 

keeping the 

bus lanes clear 

and this is 

currently being 

conducted as 

part of our one 

month phase to 

educate motorists 

about the 

Paul McNoe 

bus lane rules.” 

Vehicles 

parked in bus lanes during operational 

times impacted the overall 

efficiency of the bus network, Mr 

Thomas said. 

Mr McNoe said it was “reasonable” 

to give out warning letters 

in the first month because the bus 

lanes have only recently opened. 

“It can take a while for people to 

sometimes realise that it is what it 

is,” he said. 

Bus lanes being blocked has 

been an ongoing issue for a number 

of years, Mr McNoe said. 

“I think it’s early days . . . clearly 

it’s frustrating bus drivers at this 

stage, but I think the approach 

they [city council] are taking is a 

reasonable approach.” 

HAVE YOUR SAY 

Bus priority on Lincoln Road and 

Moorhouse Avenue 

We are planning to install peak hour bus lanes on Lincoln Road and 

Moorhouse Avenue to improve bus journey times between Halswell and 

the central city. Last chance to have your say. 

Consultation closes 5pm, 4 December 2018.

City2Surf set to celebrate 45 years 

STAR MEDIA will celebrate 

45 years since participants in 

the City2Surf hit the ground 

running. 

Since 1975, Star Media’s 

City2Surf, one of the South 

Island’s largest participation 

events, has brought thousands 

of people together for fun and 

fitness. 

On March 24, City2Surf will 

celebrate its 45th anniversary. 

A lot has changed since the 

event’s humble beginnings. 

However, it still remains first and 

foremost a fun run. 

Originally, the City2Surf would 

start in Cathedral Square and 

end at New Brighton beach. 

Later, the finish line was 

changed to QE II stadium. 

In 2011, following the 

earthquake, the event had to be 

cancelled as parts of the eastern 

route were broken. 

Now the start line for the 

14km event is at Centennial Park 

and the Sport Canterbury 6km 

event begins at Hansen Park, 

Opawa. 

Both events finish at the 

Ferrymead playing fields with 

FREE entry given to participants 

into Ferrymead Historic Park. 

Over the years, City2Surf 

has helped to burn more than 

184,730,000 calories, says event 

manager Jon Holmes. 

“The amount of kilometres run 

during this event is enough to 

run around the world 120 times,” 

he said. 

Entries to participate in the 

2019 City2Surf open on Saturday. 

The Star Media 14km event 

with Les Mills and Sport 

Canterbury 6km option means 

there is always something 

suitable for all runners and 

walkers of all fitness types. 

Participants can choose to 

either take part individually or in 

a team. 

At this year’s event, there were

Since first opening in 2007, the 

hospital has provided more than 

15,000 patient visits. It provides 

free day surgery, medical 

treatments, dentistry, oral 

surgery and counselling. 

The hospital is unique to New 

Zealand in that its services are 

frequently updated depending on 

the need. 

The Canterbury Charity 

Hospital Trust does not 

receive any Government 

funding and relies on 

fundraising events, such as 

the City2Surf, donations and 

charitable organisations.

Getting ready for 

the festive season 

Christmas means a lot of things to a lot of 

people. For some it is a religious celebration, 

for others a chance to gather with family and 

celebrate. Whatever Christmas means to you, 

there are many ways to celebrate – from the full 

grandeur of baked ham and turkey with all the 

trimmings or a picnic on the beach with the ones 

you love. 

For some, Christmas can be a stressful time 

of year, but there are ways to minimise this and 

spread the workload, so everyone can enjoy the 

day. 

Here are some ideas to help you get through the 

festive season. 

Create order in your home 

Start preparations early, if you are hosting 

everyone at your house, don’t leave it all to the 

last minute. Start the spring clean up now so 

when it comes to the days leading into the holiday 

season you are not rushing around – making you 

stressed and exhausted. 

Tackling one room at a time is a good way 

to purge and get organised. Sorting through 

wardrobes and cupboards and getting rid of 

anything you haven’t used in the past year. Having 

all the rooms organised means there will also be 

space for those coming to stay during this busy 

time. 

Once you’ve dusted and vacuumed shut the 

doors and just air out the room a few days before 

your guests arrive. A nice towel placed at the end 

of the bed and a small floral arrangement from the 

garden can also add a nice welcoming touch. 

Share the food load 

We have between 25 to 30 people for Christmas 

most years, but our family has got smart. The host 

divvies up the food between each family, spreading 

the cost and the work. 

About four weeks before the big day, we send 

out a food allocation of what each person brings. 

Normally the parents get the turkey and ham 

with the offspring in charge of vegetables and 

puddings. This is a great way to 

spread the load and the cost and allows for those 

who aren’t cooks to also contribute – we just put 

them in charge of nibbles, drinks or chocolates for 

on the table etc. 

Just make sure you tell each person how much 

is needed, for example you don’t want someone 

turning up with just one punnet of strawberries. 

The rule is that whatever you bring you must 

have prepared, so the new potatoes arrive scraped 

in a pot, the vegetables and the salads and puddings 

are all made. 

A little bit of organisation ahead of time means 

everyone gets to enjoy the day and join in the fun.

Picking the perfect pressie 

at the perfect price 

Christmas present shopping can be a headache for giftgivers 

but here are a few simple steps to assist you when 

selecting the perfect gift this Christmas season. 

Set a budget 

The trap many people fall into is 

overspending. Work out how much you 

want to spend total for all your presents, then 

use this amount to allocate the amount you 

are going to spend on each person. If your 

allocation totals more than your budget, 

then scrape a little bit of money off each 

person’s amount. 

The common pitfall at Christmas, or in fact 

any other time you’re shopping, is when you 

see something that is just a few dollars more. 

Those few dollars can really add up, so try 

and stick to the amount you have budgeted 

for each person as closely as possible. 

If you spend less on a person yet still get 

them the perfect gift, then see it as a win. 

If things are tight 

If you are not able to afford to buy 

presents for all your family members, then 

be honest with them. Perhaps now is the 

time to stop buying for your brothers and 

sisters, nephews and nieces. A secret Santa 

present, where each person is allocated 

someone to buy for with a set dollar limit, is 

a great idea – you still get the fun of giving 

and receiving but not the huge expense. 

Otherwise another way to cut costs 

is to give something you have made 

yourself. This could be baking, chutneys or 

something you have crafted or sewn. If you 

have a special talent for making something 

(that doesn’t cost the earth) then now is the 

time to show it.

Ask for help 

If you’re unsure of what to get someone a 

little hint from the person is okay. Children 

especially love writing lists of what they 

would like, so save those catalogues coming 

through the letterbox, look at newspaper 

advertisements or go online and spend 

some time with them to find out what their 

perfect present is. 

It’s okay also to say that the gift they have 

chosen is too expensive but then together 

search through and find an alternative. It 

can still be a surprise for them on the day, 

if you get them to write down two or three 

of their favourite things and then tell them 

you will pick one from their list.

if you give them the gender and age of 

the people you are shopping for. They 

know what stock they have in store 

and can save you time and struggle by 

culling out the things that may not be 

appropriate. 

Before you head out make sure you are 

rested up, fed and hydrated and stress 

free – if you aren’t, chances are you will 

blow your budget just to get the job 

done quickly. Shopping hours are often 

extended at this time of year, so shop 

smart and go either early in the morning 

or late at night when shops should be 

less busy.

WW2 victims remembered at rose garden 


ABOUT 60 people remembered 

21 Addington railway workshop 

workers on November 17 who 

did not return from World War 

2. 

The special ceremony at 

Ferrymead Heritage Park was a 

great success, said organiser Jude 

Turner. 

Augustas O’Malley, who was 

one of the 21 railway workers, 

was killed on board the HMS 

Jupiter after hitting a Dutch mine 

off the coast of Indonesia. 

After working as an electric 

plater for the Addington railway 

workshops, Mr O’Malley died 

in February 1942 at the age of 

22 after joining the navy in July 

1941. 

Mr O’Malley was represented 

by relative, Denise O’Malley- 

Grey, at the commemoration. 

Mrs O’Malley-Grey said the 

memorial service gave the closure 

needed for her great uncle. 

“For me, as part of Gus’s 

family, it honestly felt like he had 

been brought home to rest.” 

Mrs O’Malley-Grey said she 

had been on a “journey” in 

getting to know her great uncle 

since she was sent one of his 

memorial medals along with his 

navy records. 

“He was a stoker in the boiler 

room, so he was quite in the 

middle of it when there was the 

massive explosion that hit the 

ship, and of course those guys in 

the boiler room wouldn’t have 

stood a chance.” 

His body was never recovered. 

“He was killed in 1942, 

his mother didn’t receive the 

telegram till 1945. His father died 

in 1944 not even knowing he had 

lost his son.” 

George Nelson’s descendant, 

Linda Perkins, felt the service 

was exactly what the 21 men 

deserved. 

“I went along with my two 

cousins and it was a beautiful day 

with the roses out in bloom. It 

was really nice people other than 

our family could acknowledge 

the sacrifice George made.” 

Sergeant Nelson worked 

as a fitter and turner at the

Addington railways before 

enlisting in the air force. 

He was killed in action 

on October 2, 1942, on his 

first operational flight over 

Dusseldorf, Germany. 

“It is great to have a 

permanent reminder of George 

and somewhere for the other 

members of the family to go 

remember him. Not all people 

are able to visit the graves of their 

loved ones overseas.” 

Descendants of Alan Davies 

were also in attendance at the 

memorial.

SCHOOLS 

Student’s 

science 

challenge 

JESSICA TATER will be 

tasked with finding answers to 

challenging questions posed by 

scientists at Powering Potential. 

The Cashmere High School 

student will join Papanui High’s 

Sophie Deam at the programme 

in Wellington from December 

10-13. 

Powering Potential, run by 

Royal Society Te Apārangi, 

brings New Zealand’s most 

promising science students 

together to work alongside a 

scientist or PhD student who will 

act as their mentor over three 

days. 

The students will work in 

teams of five on a question 

submitted by their mentor. The 

students will then research, 

investigate and collaborate to 

provide recommendations. 

Said Royal Society Te 

Apārangi chief executive 

Andrew Cleland: “They will 

also need to work well in a team 

situation and will be required 

to hone their research skills. At 

the end of the three days, each 

team will present its findings at a 

special presentation.” 

Cashmere problem-solvers off to US 

CASHMERE HIGH School 

students who excelled at a 

national problem-solving 

competition have been invited 

to showcase their skills in the 

United States. 

The students from Cashmere 

High will join Rangi Ruru Girls’ 

School and Burnside High 

students in Massachusetts next 

year for the Future Problem 

Solving international finals. 

Most of the contingent flew 

to Auckland earlier this month 

for the national FPS finals but 

the year 13 students elected to 

compete from Christchurch so 

they would have more time to 

study for exams. 

The combined year 12 team, 

which included students from 

Rangi Ruru, St Margaret’s 

College and Burnside High, won 

the presentation of action plan 

section and finished second in 

the senior global issues problemsolving 

section. 

The year 13 team from 

Rangi Ruru won the senior 

global issues problem-solving 

section. In the final, teams had a 

mind-bending challenge – how 

to fix cloud storage problems in 

the year 2038. 

Rangi Ruru digital technology 

teacher Dave Hullen said the 

challenge was a daunting task 

but the girls took it head on. 

“This was the culmination of 

a year of hard work, research, 

practice and creative thinking,” 

he said. 

NO PROBLEMS: Future Problem Solving national winners Emily Davey (left), Lucy Anderson, E 

Wen Wong, Robb Eastman-Densem and William Wray. 

“For most of the younger 

girls, this was their first time 

at nationals and they did 

themselves and Rangi Ruru 

proud. Their enthusiasm, 

determination, intelligence and 

creativity will assure them of 

future success in FPS.” 

The Rangi Ruru teams earned 

their place at nationals in term 

three with submissions on 

solving future problems with 

philanthrocapitalism – a type of 

philanthropy that mirrors the 

way business is done in the notfor-profit 

area. 

Earlier in the year, the teams 

practiced their problem-solving 

SOUTHERN VIEW 

skills by studying problems 

related to infectious diseases and 

toxic waste. 

The teams knew the national 

finals topic was cloud storage 

so they researched binary, 

encryption, compression, 

quantum computing and 

projected current trends.

WORKSAFE NEW Zealand 

has b en a proached in a bid to 

fina ly repair the potholes in New 

Brighton’s Hawke St car park. 

Coastal-Burw od Ward city 

counci lor David East wants 

WorkSafe to pre sure the car 

park’s private owners into 

repairing the potholes which are 

a “trip and vehicle” hazard. 

WorkSafe chief inspector 

a se sment southern Da ren 

Handforth said it may be able to 

take action under the Health and 

Safety at Work Act 2015, “as a 

person conducting a busine s or 

undertaking.” 

Mr Handforth said WorkSafe 

is aware of the concerns raised by 

Cr East abou the car park. 

“WorkSafe has completed 

an a se sment visi to the site 

and is engaging with the owner 

to advise them that it is their 

responsibility to manage their 

risks a propriately.” 

Different parts of the car park 

are owned by various people 

and the Coastal-Burw od 

Community Board recently 

wrote to them about its concerns 

around health and safety. 

Cr East said the bi gest i sue 

in the past has b en ge ting in 

touch with the landlords and 

owners and ge ting them to 

agr e to anything. “The board 

a preciates that multi-ownership 

of the parking space may present 

a difficulty in co-ordinating 

repair/resurfacing but felt obliged 

to pa s these concerns onto you,” 

said the le ter. 

One reply has b en received so 

far from an owner who is wi ling 

to discu s the i sue. However, a l 

the owners would have to agr e 

to undertake work. 

Cr East said there had b en 

a “number of incidences” in 

the car park of people injuring 

themselves which had gone 

unreported. 

“I’ve always though that it 

has b en quite amazing that we 

haven’t had any serious a cidents 

or senior citizens perhaps 

tri ping in those potholes and 

doing themselve some damage.” 

He is confiden the new 

a proach wi l bring results. 

“I think the WorkSafe 

involvement may prove to be the 

lever that we are l oking for.” 

New bid to fix potholes

THE PAPANUI-I nes 

Community Board has taken the 

rare step of starting a petition 

to figh the city council over 

funding. 

Signatures are being co lected 

in a bid to get funding for a community 

facility in Shirley. 

It comes after the city council 

removed funding for the centre 

pla ned for Shirley Rd, near the 

intersection with Hi ls Rd. This 

was the site of the former community 

centre, which was badly 

damaged in the February 2, 

20 1, earthquake. 

The removal o funding 

prompted community board 

chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten 

to stan down, citing it as her “die 

in the ditch” project. 

Ms Jone said the board’s role 

is to represen the community, 

and by gathering signatures from 

residents, it was fulfi ling that 

role. 

“One of the roles of a community 

board is to represent and act 

as advocate for the interests of its 

community and this is what we 

are doing. The LTP and a nual 

plans are a l about lo bying the 

council.”

Cave Rock 

Apartments’ 

owners 

expect EQC 

sign-off 

this week 

• By Sarla Donovan 

THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave 

Rock Apartments ar expecting the 

Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off 

on a se tlement agr emen this w ek. 

Body corporate chairman Mike 

White said the group had gone 

into mediation with IAG and EQC 

on February 20, and signed off 

on a deal with IAG on February 

2 – coincidenta ly seven years 

to the day after the February 2, 

20 1, earthquake. However, they 

are waiting for EQC to sign the 

agr ement. 

“Given that EQC actua ly drafted 

the agr ement, there’ l be no 

problem with them doing that.” 

The apartment suffere damage 

in the February and June, 20 1, 

earthquakes and were demolished in 

late 2012. In 2016, IAG’s offer of the 

difference betw en indemnity value, 

$10 mi lion, and the sum insured, 

$16 mi lion, was rejected by the body 

corporate. 

The mediation agr ement 

prevented Mr White from disclosing 

the se tlement amount, but he said it 

involved the two parties paying “a bit 

more money than they’d wanted to 

earlier.”

A WOOLSTON butcher proved 

to be a cut above the rest in an 

international competition. 

New World Fe ry Rd butcher 

Jeremy Garth and his team, the 

Pure South Sharp Blacks, recently 

came second a the World 

Butchers’ Cha lenge in Northern 

Ireland. 

It was the firs time Mr Garth 

had competed in the cha lenge 

and he was “rea ly proud” of 

how the team performed. 

“We produced some top quality 

products and came away 

with a g od result so we’re very 

ha py,” he said. 

The preparation for this year’s 

World Butchers’ Cha lenge was 

intense as the team members 

met in Auckland every two 

months for lengthy w ekend 

practices. 

Mr Garth, who has b en a 

butcher for 14 years, said the 

competition brought back his 

pa sion for the job. 

“Doing a l thi stuff and 

m eting new people, s eing new 

ideas, it just brings that flair 

back for you,” he said. 

Mr Garth hopes t own a 

butcher shop of his own someday 

but says for now he wi l focus 

on ge ting mor experience 

and on the 2020 cha lenge. 

“In two years’ time, we’ l be 

going back to try and win the 

title,” he said.

A CRACKDOWN on mobile

However, the public has li tle 

interest in having input into the 

i sue. 

Only eight submi sions were 

received for a potential bylaw 

aimed at regulating commercial 

activities in public places. 

The district council wi l be 

holding a hearing for the Public 

Places Bylaw and Policy on Commercial 

Activities and Events in 

Public Places. 

A hearing i scheduled to be 

held on Thursday. 

The bylaw comes as an increasing 

number of mobile traders 

are s eking t operate in Selwyn, 

especia ly during the summer 

months. 

In the past year, the district 

council has received five inquiries 

about se ting up a mobile busine s 

on private or public land. 

A report said there are two

Pupils learn about role of war horses 

GR ENDALE SCHOOL pupils 

have taken a step back in time, 

s eing first hand what men and 

horses l oked like during war. 

The New Zealand Mounted 

Rifles Charitable Trust president 

Mark A pleton and member 

Mike Donaldson t ok their 

horses to the sch ol on Monday, 

in a bid to educate pupils on the 

sacrifice their ancestors made in 

World War 1 and World War 2. 

Mr A pleton and Mr Donaldson 

a rived a the sch ol dre sed 

in World War 1 uniforms while 

their horses Tommy and Kruze 

wore 1 0-year-old sa dles donated 

to the trust. 

The presentation is a prelude 

to the Gr endale Recreation Reserve 

Management Commi t e’s 

upcoming Anzac Day service. 

As a tribute to those who 

served, members of the trust wi l 

ride horseback to the service. 

Mr A pleton said it was 

important children were 

educated on what soldiers 

wen through during World 

War 1 and World War 2. 

But he said the presentation 

didn’t go into t o much detail 

and was more of a “show and 

te l” to make them aware of what 

the soldiers l oked like. 

Children were shown the type 

of kits horses were required to 

wear in the war.

AN U PER Ri carton butcher 

has proven himself to be a cut 

above his Au sie rivals at an 

international competition. 

Elite Meats owner Corey 

Winder was named in the a l 

star team a the World Butchers’ 

Cha lenge in Northern Ireland. 

Mr Winder and his team, the 

Pure South Sharp Blacks, which 

includes W olston butcher 

Jeremy Garth, finished second 

in the competition. 

He said the cha lenge started 

as a “transtasman test match” 

seven years ago. 

The preparation for this 

year’s World Butchers’ Challenge 

was intense as the team 

members met in Auckland 

every two months for lengthy 

w ekend practices. Mr Winder 

said coming second against 1 

other countries was a “fantastic” 

result. 

“To get second behind Ireland 

was a huge achievement and to 

be ahead of Australia is an 

even bi ger thing for us,” he 

said. 

But Mr Winder admires the 

Australian team. 

“Those guys over there 

[Australia] are on top of their 

game, they do a g od job,” he 

said. 

“And it just showcases that 

New Zealand has got some 

of the best butchers in the 

world,” he said. 

Mr Winder has b en a butcher 

since the age of 19.

THE HALSWE L-Hornby- 

Ri carton Community Board

Templeton. 

Mayor Lia ne Dalziel told the 

board on Thursday it had the okay 

from the city council to make a 

submi sion if Fulton Hogan a plies 

for a resource consen to create a 

qua ry. 

Board chairman Mike Mora 

told Western News the submi sion 

would likely o pose Fulton Hogan’s 

plan. 

“You can just about guarant e 

it . because we [the community 

board] don’t believe qua ries 

should be so close to residential 

areas,” he said. 

Mr Mora said he wasn’t sure if 

the city council would endorse the 

board’ submi sion. 

“I’d like to think so because the 

city council has had their eyes 

open as we l ove recent years over 

the crysta line silica risk,” he said. 

Mr Mora said the community 

board wi l be “representing and 

advocating” for the Templeton 

community.

help, the next entertainment hub of Christchurch,

minded, we would like to hear from clubs locally, 

who we may be able to offer assistance to,
