THURSDAY, JULY 4, <strong>2024</strong><br />

THE FEMINIST Clown Posse<br />

is about to be unleashed on<br />

Lyttelton. But those with<br />

coulrophobia need not<br />

worry as these clowns aren’t<br />

scary.<br />

The group’s sold-out<br />

show next Wednesday<br />

promises to bring of fits of<br />

giggles to even those with<br />

a phobia of clowns.<br />

Renowned Australian<br />

entertainer Tessa Waters<br />

(right), who now lives<br />

in Lyttelton, coined<br />

the group’s name to be<br />

“positively provocative”.<br />

“Clowns are seen<br />

as sort of innocent<br />

and putting it with<br />

feminism, which is<br />

quite a strong idea,<br />

will hopefully either<br />

make people interested<br />

in what we’re doing<br />

or realise it’s not for<br />

them,” she said.<br />

Waters’ clown<br />

troupe is part of the<br />

line-up for LytFest,<br />

starting on Friday.<br />

Festivities will start<br />

with the free opening<br />

party at Albion Square<br />

from 5-7pm.<br />

Funding<br />

boost to<br />

help city<br />

prepare<br />

for climate<br />

change<br />

RATEPAYERS will bear the<br />

brunt of a city council decision<br />

to put more money into the<br />

Long Term Plan to help the build<br />

resilience to climate change.<br />

Two options to invest the<br />

additional funding were put<br />

forward in the draft LTP <strong>2024</strong>-<br />

34, both of which were agreed by<br />

councillors last week following<br />

public consultation.<br />

An extra $1.8 million in<br />

operational funding has been<br />

brought forward for climate<br />

adaptation work to reduce<br />

flooding and boost community<br />

preparedness.<br />

Councillors also agreed to<br />

establish a climate resilience<br />

fund to manage future changes<br />

to city council assets.<br />

The additional investment<br />

will mean a 0.25 per cent rates<br />

increase in the first year of the<br />

fund. This will rise by 0.25 per<br />

cent for each year of the LTP.<br />

It will lead to a 2.25 per cent<br />

rates increase by 2033/34, at<br />

which time the fund could<br />

contain up to $127 million.<br />

This fund may be used to<br />

move or raise roads that are<br />

considered to be a lifeline for<br />

the community, protect water<br />

infrastructure, and ensure<br />

facilities exposed to hazards are<br />

more resilient.<br />

‘Loud, naughty and disruptive’<br />

• From page 1<br />

Attendees are encouraged to<br />

dress up and watch the parade of<br />

performers followed by a dance<br />

party.<br />

The festival promises 16 days<br />

of theatre, dance and exhibitions<br />

for audiences of all ages at venues<br />

throughout Lyttelton.<br />

Artists like Lyttelton<br />

multi-instrumentalist Carmel<br />

Courtney and Queenstownbased<br />

juggler Paul Klaass are part<br />

of the line-up.<br />

Under Waters’ tutelage, 22<br />

women and non-binary people<br />

have been learning the art of<br />

clowning through a feminist<br />

lens at the Lyttelton Recreation<br />

Centre.<br />

“The clown scene internationally<br />

is quite male dominated, so I<br />

was very interested in empowering<br />

other voices.”<br />

She has more than a decade of<br />

experience in creating acclaimed<br />

comedy, theatre and short films<br />

which have played to sell-out<br />

crowds in Australia and the<br />

United Kingdom.<br />

Waters has found traditional<br />

clown training to be restrictive,<br />

with women typically limited to<br />

feminine and sidekick roles.<br />

“There’s the idea that women<br />

always had to be quite small<br />

and pretty and quirky. I’m<br />

quite interested in taking up<br />

some space and being loud and<br />

naughty and disruptive,” she said.<br />

The posse ranges in age from<br />

GIGGLES AND GAGS: The Feminist Clown Posse is a Lyttelton-based troupe focused on<br />

learning the jester arts through a progressive lens.<br />

early 20s to those in their 60s,<br />

with some being experienced<br />

performers and others complete<br />

novices.<br />

“It’s all about embracing who<br />

you are and then whatever<br />

silliness you have in your core<br />

will shine.”<br />

The posse has attracted<br />

wannabe clowns from Banks<br />

Peninsula and Christchurch, who<br />

have been training together since<br />

February.<br />

Their LytFest show will feature<br />

various skits, gags and crowd<br />

interaction.<br />

“It’s all very based in that<br />

connection with the audience<br />

and finding gold in failures.”<br />

Waters moved to Lyttelton<br />

from Wellington in 2022 and<br />

immersed herself in the arts<br />

scene.<br />

“It’s full of really interesting<br />

artists and the community spirit<br />

here is just beautiful.”<br />

Born in rural Queensland, the<br />

41-year-old always had a taste for<br />

performance art and travelled<br />

the world to study under French<br />

LEGACY: An all-female clown<br />

troupe from Christchurch,<br />

pictured in 1918. A Pierrot<br />

Troupe was a group of<br />

entertainers who performed<br />

fundraising variety shows in<br />

Canterbury and across New<br />

Zealand during World War 1.<br />

master clown Philippe Gaulier.<br />

“I’ve become a teacher myself<br />

and it’s a real gift being able to<br />

help people flourish and step out<br />

of their boundaries.”<br />

Waters’ posse has found<br />

inspiration in all-female clown<br />

troupes from Canterbury’s<br />

history.<br />

“It’s really incredible to have<br />

brought this to Lyttelton and<br />

to be sort of stepping on the<br />

shoulders of those who came<br />

before.”<br />

for all the LytFest shows are<br />

OVERFLOW: Avonside Dr was closed after the Avon River breached its<br />

banks during the 2020 flooding.<br />

More money in LTP to<br />

fight climate change<br />

• From page 1<br />

Said Mayor Phil Mauger: “We had a lot<br />

of feedback from the community that<br />

they want to see strong investment in<br />

climate change mitigation.<br />

“Our low-lying coastal and inland<br />

parts of Christchurch are going to be<br />

increasingly impacted as sea levels rise<br />

so it’s important that we start preparing<br />

now.”<br />

The council will also under take a range<br />

of projects to help mitigate climate change<br />

over the next 10 years.<br />

It includes spending $101 million on<br />

public transport infrastructure and bus<br />

route reliability, supporting the ongoing<br />

development of cycling infrastructure<br />

across the city with $199 million for the<br />

Major Cycleway Network and increasing<br />

tree coverage and canopy through delivery<br />

of the $18 million Urban Forest Plan.<br />

More than $1 billion has also been<br />

allocated to projects that will improve<br />

waterways, reduce flood risk and support<br />

the development of the Ōtākaro Avon<br />

Police, students keep it reel on fishing day<br />

IT WAS A DAY out of the<br />

classroom but there was still<br />

plenty of learning at Blue Light<br />

Canterbury’s recent Kids Gone<br />

Fishin’ day.<br />

On a clear but frosty morning<br />

at Lake Roto Kohatu, a group of<br />

year 7 and 8 pupils from Te Kura<br />

Mareko Casebrook Intermediate<br />

School got the chance to learn<br />

new skills.<br />

The idea behind the event is to<br />

empower children by introducing<br />

them to new skills and providing<br />

an opportunity to interact with<br />

police and help break down<br />

barriers.<br />

The day started with a health<br />

and safety briefing and the lastminute<br />

addition of some extra<br />

layers of clothing.<br />

Fishing expert Hamish<br />

Bilcliff, from Hunting &<br />

Fishing (Ballingers), introduced<br />

different methods of fishing and<br />

demonstrated how to set up a<br />

rod.<br />

The pupils then set off to put<br />

what they’d learned into practice.<br />

They used a range of fishing<br />

methods including spin/lure<br />

fishing and bait casting.<br />

There were more trees caught<br />

than fish, but it allowed the adults<br />

to put their stretching skills to the<br />

test to unhook wayward casts.<br />

Lunch was a sausage sizzle to<br />

keep bodies warm and spirits up.<br />

Although only one trout was<br />

caught (and released due to<br />

being under-sized), the event was<br />

branded a success by all involved.<br />

WAITING GAME: Acting Sergeant Andrew Eastwick and one of the Casebrook pupils practising the art of patience.<br />

FISH FUN: While only a solitary trout was caught, Blue Light Canterbury’s Kids Gone Fishin’ day was a great opportunity<br />

for pupils to interact with police and get useful fishing tips.<br />

Ashburton College Winter<br />

Sports Exchange<br />

Burnside High School won the trophy again this year, on Tuesday<br />

11 June, after a tight contest over many sports.<br />

A fabulous day was had by all down<br />

in Ashburton on Tuesday 11 June.<br />

After driving down in the drizzle,<br />

the weather became clear and<br />

sunny for all the sport to proceed.<br />

160 students travelled down on<br />

three buses and three minivans<br />

for a big day of sports at various<br />

venues in Ashburton.<br />

The amazing EA Networks Centre<br />

hosted the Badminton, Netball and<br />

Basketball games, the Ashburton<br />

Domain held the Football and<br />

Hockey games, and the Celtic Rugby Club hosted the Boys U15<br />

game there. The Golf was played at the Ashburton Golf Club.<br />

BHS held onto the trophy for another year! But it was close, a<br />

draw in the end - but because we won the trophy last year, we get<br />

to hold it for another year.<br />

Pukehinau Opens<br />

Burnside High wins the Canterbury<br />

Schools Programming Contest<br />

Burnside High School sent fifteen teams to the annual Canterbury<br />

Schools Programming Contest,<br />

held at the University of<br />

Canterbury on Saturday 22nd<br />

June.<br />

The contest was attended by over<br />

ninety students from ten schools<br />

around the region and was one of<br />

the biggest in recent years, filling<br />

two labs at the University.<br />

The competition requires<br />

participants to write code to solve<br />

a series of increasingly complex problems over three hours, and<br />

the top problems are often more complex than you would find<br />

in most university algorithms courses. Former winners of these<br />

competitions have often gone on to represent New Zealand for<br />

programming.<br />

The top honours went to Leon Wu and Miles McGrath who<br />

managed to answer all but one question in the time limit.<br />

They were very closely followed by another Burnside team<br />

consisting of Cameron Martin and Aditya Bansal who were only a<br />

few points behind.<br />

Our new twenty-four<br />

Pork belly and parsnips to beat the cold<br />

The days are cold, the<br />

nights even more so.<br />

Time to share food that<br />

will bolster us against<br />

the weather; good things<br />

to eat that will light up<br />

the dark days of deepest<br />

winter, bringing cheer and<br />

conviviality, writes Nigel<br />

Slater<br />

Slow roast belly pork<br />

with butter beans and<br />

balsamic vinegar<br />

A big dish this, with thick,<br />

jagged slices of pork on the bone,<br />

a pile of steaming butter beans<br />

at their side. Save this for those<br />

who positively relish sucking<br />

and gnawing at rib bones and<br />

chewing at crackling.<br />

Ingredients<br />

Serves 4<br />

1.9kg pork belly, bones in, skin<br />

scored<br />

2 medium onions<br />

2 medium carrots<br />

2 stalks celery<br />

3tbsp olive oil<br />

6 sprigs rosemary<br />

3 cloves garlic<br />

375g tomatoes<br />

500ml vegetable stock<br />

1 x 700g jar butter beans or 2 x<br />

400g tins<br />

1tbsp balsamic vinegar<br />

Method<br />

• Take the pork out of the<br />

fridge and leave it uncovered in a<br />

cool place for an hour or so.<br />

• Heat the oven to 220C fan.<br />

Rub the pork with salt and place<br />

it skin side up in a roasting tin.<br />

Roast for 25 minutes or so till<br />

the skin is a little puffed and<br />

starting to crackle, then lower<br />

the heat to 160C and cook for<br />

about 1½ hours.<br />

• Meanwhile, peel and<br />

roughly chop the onions. Trim<br />

the carrots, cut them in half<br />

lengthways, then into short<br />

pieces of about 1cm. Cut the<br />

celery into pieces of a similar<br />

size.<br />

• Warm the oil in a medium to<br />

large saucepan over a moderate<br />

heat, add the onion, carrots<br />

and celery, and leave to cook<br />

for about 15 minutes, stirring<br />

regularly, until the vegetables<br />

are starting to soften. While<br />

they cook, pull the leaves from<br />

the rosemary sprigs and chop<br />

them finely. Peel the garlic, slice<br />

very thinly then stir, with the<br />

rosemary, into the softening<br />

vegetables and continue cooking.<br />

• Roughly chop the tomatoes,<br />

then add them to the pan,<br />

stirring the mixture well. Once<br />

the tomatoes have softened and<br />

collapsed – a matter of 5-10<br />

minutes – pour in the stock<br />

and bring to the boil. Season<br />

with salt and black pepper and<br />

turn down the heat, leaving<br />

everything to simmer for 10<br />

minutes.<br />

• Drain the beans and stir into<br />

the vegetable mixture together<br />

with the balsamic vinegar, then<br />

set aside.<br />

• When the pork has been<br />

cooking for 1 hour, remove<br />

briefly from the oven and<br />

transfer the beans around the<br />

meat, taking care not to get<br />

any on the crackling. Continue<br />

roasting for 30 minutes or until<br />

the meat is tender.<br />

Roast parsnips with honey<br />

and ricotta<br />

Glistening with honey, ricotta<br />

and thyme, roast parsnips are<br />

something to serve with slices<br />

of cold roast meat or, as I did<br />

the other day, with baked flat<br />

mushrooms with tarragon<br />

and lemon butter. You can<br />

roast them without the initial<br />

steaming, but that can result in<br />

tougher, chewy parsnips. Better,<br />

I think, to steam them first,<br />

which results in a fluffy interior.<br />

Ingredients<br />

Enough for 4 as side dish<br />

900g parsnips<br />

30g butter<br />

3tbsp olive or vegetable oil<br />

3tbsp runny honey<br />

1tbsp thyme leaves<br />

100g ricotta<br />

Method<br />

• Get a pan of water on to<br />

boil and have a steamer basket<br />

or colander to hand. Peel the<br />

parsnips, cut them in half and<br />

then into short lengths, rather<br />

like the size you do for roast<br />

potatoes.<br />

• Lower the parsnips into the<br />

steamer basket, place it over the<br />

boiling water and cover tightly<br />

with a lid. Adjust the heat as<br />

necessary to keep the water<br />

boiling without boiling over,<br />

and let the vegetables steam<br />

for 20 minutes till approaching<br />

tenderness.<br />

• Set the oven at 210C fan.<br />

Melt the butter and olive oil<br />

in a roasting tin in the oven,<br />

then add the steamed parsnips.<br />

Toss them in the oil so they are<br />

glistening, then roast for about<br />

35-50 minutes till they are<br />

golden and lightly crisp.<br />

• Season the parsnips with<br />

salt and black pepper, trickle the<br />

honey over them, then return to<br />

the oven for a further 7 minutes.<br />

• Mix the thyme and ricotta<br />

together. Place spoonfuls of the<br />

cold ricotta on the hot, sizzling<br />

parsnips and serve immediately.<br />

Hybrid the jewel in the Qashqai crown<br />

IT’S FASCINATING to look back<br />

at new models launched here 18<br />

months ago that were touted as<br />

having the ability to shake and stir<br />

our market, to see if they delivered<br />

on those expectations.<br />

One of these vehicles is the<br />

latest dapper looking new Qashqai<br />

compact urban SUV, with a<br />

creative fuel saving low emission<br />

hybrid power train and host of<br />

safety connectivity technology.<br />

You do get more Qashqai<br />

for your dollar with this latest<br />

iteration bigger across the board.<br />

It’s 4425mm long (+31mm),<br />

1625mm tall (+30mm), and<br />

1835mm wide (+29mm), while the<br />

wheelbase has grown to 2665mm<br />

(+19mm).<br />

Motoring with Bob Nettleton<br />

There’s are some interesting<br />

variations that add more variety in<br />

the powertrain department, with<br />

a pint sized but punchy 1.3-litre<br />

turbo petrol, and the option of<br />

Nissan’s innovative e-POWER<br />

hybrid system. The latter carries a<br />

hefty $7k price premium over the<br />

turbo petrol motor.<br />

Petrol not e-Power dominates<br />

the six strong model range<br />

comprising four petrol variants<br />

starting with the price leading<br />

$46,120 ST and tracking through<br />

to $57,120. The more exclusive<br />

e-Power hybrid club is limited to<br />

the upmarket Ti and Ti-L priced at<br />

$60,120 and $65,120 respectively.<br />

The Ti-L e-Power was chosen for<br />

this road test.<br />

Ratings out of 10: Performance 8; Handling 7; Build Quality<br />

7; Comfort 7; Passenger and Load Space 6; Styling 8; Value<br />

for money 5; Safety – Five Star ANCAP crash rating.<br />

Overall points out of 10: 7<br />

Most hybrid systems use an<br />

electric motor and a petrol engine<br />

to drive their wheels. Nissan’s<br />

e-Power turns that notion on its<br />

head with its wheels powered<br />

exclusively by an electric motor.<br />

The second-generation e-Power<br />

technology in the Qashqai is the<br />

same as the Nissan X-Trail, and<br />

turns up to work and play with<br />

effortless acceleration and refined<br />

performance.<br />

It’s a strong high-energy<br />

performer with 140kW of power<br />

and 330Nm of torque taking<br />

charge and doing everything so<br />

effortlessly. Thanks to the pure<br />

electric motor, there’s none of<br />

the power-delivery hesitancy<br />

associated with an internal<br />

combustion engine or traditional<br />

hybrid systems – just seamless and<br />

seemingly endless get up and go.<br />

In the lighter Qashqai, the<br />

power-to-weight ratio is more<br />

favourable than the heftier X-Trail<br />

giving it a noticeable performance<br />

edge. A CVT (Constant Variable<br />

Transmission) offers improved<br />

fuel economy thanks to better<br />

ratio coverage that reduces both<br />

friction, and the vehicle’s appetite<br />

for fuel.<br />

For a compact urban SUV it is<br />

roomier than most with plenty<br />

of passenger and load space. The<br />

Ti-L supplied for this road test is<br />

the jewel in the Qashqai crown<br />

that dazzles and seduces with a<br />

bevy of luxury features. There’s a<br />

Panoramic Glass Roof and electric<br />

sunshade, a black headliner and<br />

ambient interior lighting. Cabin<br />

technology features a 10.8-inch<br />

colour head-up display, and a<br />

premium 10-speaker Bose audio<br />

system. The seats are made of<br />

3D quilted premium leather that<br />

would look more at home on the<br />

luxury furniture in gentrified<br />

country manor.<br />

The Qashqai has the<br />

handling jump on several of its<br />

competitors with Nissan opting<br />

for an advanced multi-link rear<br />

suspension.<br />

I saw the benefits of this<br />

suspension arrangement when the<br />

test car was navigating badly worn<br />

and uneven road surfaces. The<br />

upside with this suspension set-up<br />

is a stronger connection between<br />

driver, vehicle and road – what<br />

more could you possible want?<br />

Well-controlled body-roll, and<br />

the effective ousting of road noise<br />

and vibrations from the passenger<br />

compartment are impressive.<br />

If you had to be picky, the<br />

steering, even with it revised ratios<br />

offering quicker corner turn-in<br />

response, still doesn’t feel as well<br />

resolved as rest of the vehicle.<br />
