Volunteer coastguard’s 

big swim to give back 

• By Dylan Smits 

ANDREW SOUTHEN 

is making a splash for 

Coastguard New Zealand 

funding by swimming 50km 

this month. 

The volunteer coastguard 

is raising funds for the 

organisation after joining the 

Lyttelton-based branch 18 

months ago. 

“I’m into boating and 

anything to do with water and 

the sea. I thought it was good 

to put something back into the 

community,” he said. 

The Big Swim is a fundraiser 

for Coastguard NZ where 

participants get sponsored for 

swimming a distance of their 

choice during July. 

Southen hopes the challenge 

will prepare him for the South 

Island masters short course 

championships next month at 

Jellie Park. 

He will compete in the 100m 

individual medley, 50m and 

100m freestroke, and 50m, 

100m and 200m backstroke. 

The 64-year-old swims with 

the Jasi Masters Swim Club and 

has already completed 30.2km 

of the challenge.

DIVE IN: Volunteer coastguard 

Andrew Southen is taking part 

in The Big Swim. He wants 

to swim 50km during July to 

fundraise for Coastguard NZ. 

Cottage 

could be 

moved 

to higher 

ground 


MOVING TO a new site is 

likely for Akaroa’s Yew Cottage 

as options for the flood-prone 

heritage building are assessed. 

Its foundations and lower 

interior are water-damaged after 

sitting unoccupied since 2007 in a 

low lying area. 

The cottage in Rue Jolie was 

built by a cooper in 1877 and 

passed into city council ownership 

after being purchased by the 

Banks Peninsula council in 1981. 

The Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū 

Banks Peninsula Community 

Board directed city council staff 

on Monday to focus on finding a 

new site on higher ground. 

To make way for potential 

commercial use, board members 

also asked staff to investigate rescinding 

the 2022 board decision, 

which designated residential use 

for the cottage. 

Akaroa Civic Trust chair 

Mike Norris was pleased the 

community board was looking 

into moving the cottage 

for restoration, rather than 

demolishing it.

KAITORETE SPIT is being 

considered as a site for multiple 

launch pads by a joint venture. 

The joint venture running the 

project on 1000ha of the spit 

beside shallow Lake Ellesmere 

is gauging demand from 

international space companies 

and asking them what they need. 

International commercial 

and military demand has been 

growing rapidly since 2020 for 

launches of the small and cheap 

type of satellite that Kaitorete is 

well suited for. 

The Tāwhaki National 

Aerospace Centre which was set 

up four years ago, has recently 

opened a small runway and 

hangar on the spit. 

It told RNZ it had “the 

potential to scale up the centre, 

working with the appropriate 

partners, to cater for multiple 

vertical launch sites”. 

“We’ve also been talking to 

international companies to 

understand sector demand 

and potential infrastructure 

requirements for vertical 

launch,” chief executive Linda 

Falwasser said.

The National Space Agency 

said it had funded Tāwhaki to 

investigate and “the government 

is expecting a business case to be 

finalised later in 2024”. 

The spit could fit up to six 

launchpads, a report to the 

government in 2020, released 

under the OIA, advised.

“The maximum possible 

number of launch pads is six 

micro-small pads or three heavy 

launch pads,” it said. 

However, it was more likely 

to get two or three pads for 

launching small or micro-size 

rockets under five tonnes each, 

depending on how much area 

was needed for emergency debris 

dispersal (up to 15km, though 

Elon Musk’s SpaceX rockets use 

much less). 

The aim is to get pads that 

multiple companies can use, 

with the country’s only existing 

launch site, at Māhia in Hawke’s 

Bay, exclusive to Rocket Lab.

Swimmer 

relishing 

challenge 

• From page 1 

“The most I’ve probably done 

before is 30km in a month. It 

is a bit of an effort, but I’m just 

enjoying the challenge so that 

gives you a bit of incentive to 

carry on,” said Southen. 

He has to swim 12km a week, 

split between four sessions, to 

reach his goal. 

Southen moved to Lyttelton 

two years ago. After reducing 

his workload in his plumbing 

company, Isovalve Ltd, he 

decided to join Coastguard 

Canterbury. 

“I’m teeing up something to 

spend my time with in retirement,” 

he said. 

Southen has raised $350 of his 

$750 goal so far and hopes to 

surpass it. 

He is also training fortnightly 

to become part of the coastguard’s 

operational crew and 

aims to be qualified to go on 

rescues in six months. 

“I’m looking forward to 

getting called out. Might be 

incidents where you get dragged 

out of your living room, but 

that’s part of it,” he said.

Cottage’s future still on table 

• From page 1 

“It would be a shame to 

demolish it. I think if it can be 

preserved. We’d support that,” 

Norris said. 

No final decision 

has been 

made as Monday’s 

session 

was information 

only. The community 

board 

still needs to 

take an official 

vote when staff

Norris 

return with more detail. 

Norris said previous 

indecision by the city council 

has made it more difficult to 

find a long-term solution for the 

cottage. 

“It’s been neglected so much 

that I think the council needs 

to have a really good long look 

at what they’ve proposed to do 

with it if they do restore it. It’s no 

good having an empty building,” 

he said. 

Banks 

Peninsula city 

councillor 

Tyrone Fields

city council 

indecision 

has further 

damaged the Tyrone

a lack of community input in 

the past has created uncertainty 

about how the cottage should be 

used. 

“We’ve tried to be responsible 

with ratepayers’ money and 

have asked staff to find the best 

solutions for that.” 

Fields favours moving the 

building over demolition, but 

would prefer the city council

private owner is found to 

foot the bill for the move and 

restoration. 

Council staff also presented 

other options for the cottage to 

the community board, which are 

unlikely to go ahead. 

Raising the building’s level 

1.9m was last discussed in June 

last year, but board members 

found the about $500,000 cost 

too expensive and requested staff 

provide alternatives. 

Demolishing the building is 

another, cheaper option. 

City council acting head of 

parks Rupert Bool said the costs 

for the different options have not 

been estimated.

Me and Mr Jones By Suzi Ronson 

My Life with David Bowie and the Spiders from Mars 

From the stylist behind David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust 

look, an electrifying peek behind the curtains during a 

legendary chapter of pop culture history. ‘Suzi Ronson 

was there as Bowie transitioned from suburban folkie to 

world superstar and genius. Few can offer such insight, 

and tell this fascinating story with such verve.’ HANIF 

KUREISHI Suzi Ronson was working in a Beckenham hair 

salon in the early seventies when Mrs Jones came in for 

her weekly shampoo and set. After being introduced to 

her son David and his wife Angie, Suzi finds herself at 

the Bowies’ bohemian apartment and is soon embroiled 

in their raucous world. Having crafted his iconic Ziggy 

Stardust hairstyle, Suzi becomes the only working 

woman in David’s touring party and joins the Spiders 

from Mars as they perform around the globe. Dazzling 

and intimate, Me and Mr Jones provides not only a 

unique perspective on one of the most beguiling stars 

of our time but also a world on the cusp of cultural 

transformation, charting the highs and lows of life as one 

of the only women in the room as it happened. 

The Love of My Afterlife By Kirsty Greenwood 

How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days meets The Good 

Place. A hilarious and heartwarming story 

about finding love where you least expect it and 

learning what it really means to live... If she 

wasn’t dead already, Delphie would be dying 

of embarrassment. She’s entered the afterlife 

wearing the sort of pyjamas you don’t want 

anyone to see and finds herself face-to-face with 

the most handsome man she’s ever encountered. 

And he’s smiling at her. As they start to chat, 

everything else becomes background noise - until 

someone comes running out of a door, yelling 

something about a huge mistake, and sends the 

dreamy stranger back down to earth. In a twist 

of fate, Delphie is offered a deal in which she can 

return to her previous life and reconnect with the 

mysterious man she’s sure is her soulmate. The 

challenge? She only has ten days to find him. Ten 

days to make him fall for her. Oh, and he has no 

recollection of them ever having met...

Community comes together for icy dip 


A CHILLING plunge and 

community connection brought 

more than 100 people together for 

the seventh annual mid-winter 

swim at Scarborough Beach on 

Sunday. 

Now part of the Scarborough 

Dipper’s Wet July event, the swim 

brings attention to the fundraising 

initiative for a new defibrillator at 

Taylors Mistake and the Sumner 

based mental health initiative Surf 

Ora. 

Organiser Julie Zarifeh started 

the swim to remember her 

husband, Paul, and son Sam, who 

both passed away within weeks of 

each other in 2017. 

Paul Zarifeh, died in November 

2017 after a battle with pancreatic 

cancer and 27-year-old Sam 

drowned while on a rafting trip 16 

days later. 

“People were exhilarated, 

buzzing, proud of themselves, 

and loved the whole vibe and 

connection aspect,” said Zarifeh. 

Fancy dress was encouraged 

this year to encourage a “fun and 

frisky” community event. 

Participants are tasked to take 

a dip in the sea every morning for 

the entire month of July.

RECIPIENTS of the Sumner 

Ferrymead Foundation’s 

Scholarships & Awards 

Programme, and the 

Community Grants Programme 

were recognised on Friday 

night at the foundation’s awards 

evening. 

This is the fourth year of 

the Scholarships & Awards 

Programme, and once again 

there were some outstanding 

candidates. 

Sumner Ferrymead 

Foundation trustee John 

Christensen has been involved 

with the programme since its 

inception. 

“Each year we shortlist 

the candidates, interview the 

shortlist and then have a lively 

discussion as to who will be the 

recipient for each scholarship or 

award,” Christensen said. 

“Whilst it’s time-consuming 

and challenging to identify 

the successful recipient, it’s an 

incredibly rewarding process 

to go through as there as some 

fantastic young people out 

there.” 

The Scholarships & Awards 

programme is sponsored by 

locals – both individuals and 

businesses – so it’s great to be 

able to introduce their recipients 


Scholarships, awards and grants celebrated 

Scholarships & Awards Recipients 

• $5000 Sciences Scholarship: Ben Isles 

• $5000 Health Sciences Scholarship: Tilly Pritchard 

• $5000 Humanities Scholarship: Rupert Shepherd 

• $2000 Apprentice Award: Sam Price 

• $5000 Outward Bound Scholarship: Cara Brignull 

• $3000 Environment Award: Seed Ladies 

to the sponsor of the award at 

the evening, so that they too can 

see the calibre of the recipients. 

A Sumner resident who 

sponsors the Environment 

Award, said sponsoring an 

award is a great way to put 

something back into your local 

community. 

“I love walking over the Port 

Hills so the Environment Award 

ticks both the ‘greening NZ’ and 

the ‘local community’ boxes 

for me. I’d encourage anyone 

to support these awards when 

reviewing which registered 

charities to support,” the 

sponsor said. 

“In my case it’s great to know 

and see how your donation is 

being used locally. Plus, you 

get to meet the people who are 

doing the hard work to make 

our community a better place to 

work, live and play, and to say 

thank you to them.” 

This year the Sumner 

Ferrymead Foundation also 

provided five community grants 

to celebrate the foundation’s 30 

years of support for the local 

community. 

Foundation trustee Andrew 

Clark said providing $30,000 in 

Community Grant Recipients 

• $5000 Education Grant: Fuse (Shoreline Youth Trust) 

• $5000 Arts & Culture Grant: Mt Pleasant Pottery 

• $5000 Sports Grant: Sumner Rugby Football Club 

• $5000 Environment Grant: Estuary Ihutai Trust (The 

Estuary Trust) 

• $10,000 Major Grant: Te Awa Kura Barnett Park 

Regreening Project 

community grants was a great 

way to mark 30 years of service. 

“We were pleased with the 

number and quality of the 

applications from groups, 

clubs and organisations from 

within the catchment area – 

from Taylors Mistake through 

to Heathcote and around to 

Brookhaven,” Clark said. 

“In an ideal world we’d love 

to offer the community grants 

each year if we could find 

sponsors in the same way we do 

for the Scholarships & Awards 

Programme. We’ve already 

had one expression of interest 

following the awards evening 

but we need a few more for this 

to be viable.” 

• If you are interested in 

sponsoring a community 

grant please contact

Foundation via their 

website, or Andrew directly

Volunteers step up to 

construct picnic tables 

FOUR NEW picnic tables are 

being installed at McCormacks 

Bay and Charlesworth Reserves 

after co-ordination between 

community groups. 

The Ferrymead Rotary Club 

funded the tables which were 

built by Linwood Menz Shed 

volunteers. 

“The generosity of the 

Ferrymead Rotary Club will 

allow locals to sit down and 

enjoy the stunning environment 

that these two reserves have 

to offer,” said Avon-Heathcote 

Estuary Trust manager Tanya 

Jenkins. 

The trust approached the 

Menz Shed about designing 

the tables after being offered 

funding by the Rotary club. 

The handy volunteers, part of 

the Linwood Resource Centre, 

were happy to support the 

initiative and fulfil instructions 

to create sturdy tables, said 

Jenkins. 

“The project has provided the 

opportunity for local men to 

share and pass on knowledge 

of woodworking to others” said 

Charlie Hulbert, Linwood Menz 

Shed community development 

co-ordinator. 

Two of the tables are 

HANDY: Menz Shed volunteers building the picnic tables for

now available for use at 

McCormack’s Bay Reserve. 

“Trust volunteers have spent 

eight years here on a regular 

basis to plant, weed, water, 

and mulch several thousand 

seedlings for people and wildlife 

to enjoy and it is certainly worth 

a look,” said Jenkins. 

The other two will be placed 

in Charlesworth Reserve soon. 

Each table is secured to a 

concrete base and milled from 

macrocarpa wood with a thick 

top and seating. 

They have been crafted 

to be durable in the salty 

environment. 

TRAVELLERS: The Dolphins rugby team are looking for 

sponsorship to help pay for travel and accommodation costs. 

Dolphins juniors set 

for Wellington visit 


A LYTTELTON Rugby Club 

tradition spanning nearly 60 

years is returning with the club’s 

year 6 juniors on their way to 

Wellington to face Norths RFC. 

The exchange tournament is 

making a comeback after being 

on hold since the Covid-19 

pandemic in 2020. 

The 9 to 11-year-olds of the 

Dolphins team are fundraising 

for the trip in September with 

raffles, bake sales and uniform 

sponsorships. 

“We’re going to come up 

against 11, 12 going on 13-yearolds. 

So it’s going to be a bit of 

a challenge for the boys,” said 

coach Joe Forster. 

The Norths team will come 

to Lyttelton first on September 

6 for a game hosted by the 

Lyttelton club. The following 

weekend, the Dolphins will 

travel to Wellington to play. 

“The boys are very excited. It’s 

something fun, it’s something 

new and you don’t get a lot 

chance to do these kinds of 

rugby exchanges at their age.”

Ease Those Aching Joints at Kōwhai Vet 

Caring for Dogs with Arthritis 

At Kōwhai Vet, we understand how much your furry friend 

means to you. Seeing them struggle with arthritis can be heartwrenching, 

but with the right care and adjustments, we can 

help make their life more comfortable and enjoyable. Here’s a 

guide to understanding and managing arthritis in dogs. 

What is Osteoarthritis? 

Osteoarthritis (OA) is like the wear and tear we humans 

experience in our joints as we age. It’s a condition where the 

protective cartilage in a dog’s joints wears down over time, 

leading to pain and stiffness. This is particularly common in 

older dogs and certain breeds that are more prone to joint 

issues. 

Diagnosing Osteoarthritis 

Osteoarthritis is diagnosed through a combination of signs 

that you may notice at home about your pet’s reduced 

mobility, physical examination and x-rays. When you bring 

your dog to Kōwhai Vet, our vets will perform a gentle and 

thorough physical exam. We’ll check for signs like swelling, 

reduced range of motion, and any discomfort your dog might 

feel when we touch their joints. We’ll also watch how they walk 

and move around. To get a clearer picture, we might suggest 

taking some x-rays. These images help us see the inside of 

Normal Hips 

Severe arthritis in hips 

The hips are a common joint for the 

development of osteoarthritis 

your dog’s joints and check for signs of osteoarthritis like 

bone spurs or narrowed joint spaces. It also helps us to rule 

out other possible causes of the pain such as bone tumours. 

Sometimes, we might recommend more detailed imaging, but 

x-rays are usually a great start. 

Medical Treatments for Pain Relief Managing 

your dog’s pain is our top priority. 

Here are some common treatments we might recommend: 

• Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs): NSAIDs 

are a staple for reducing inflammation and pain in dogs 

with arthritis. Medications like carprofen, meloxicam, 

and deracoxib can make a big difference. Of course, we’ll 

monitor your dog closely to avoid any side effects. 

• Beransa: We’re 

excited about Beransa 

(bedinvetmab), a newer 

treatment that’s been 

helping many dogs. It’s 

a monthly injection that 

targets and neutralises a 

protein involved in pain 

signalling, providing 

significant relief and 

improving mobility. 

Supportive Treatments 

Alongside medications, there are several other ways we can 

support your dog’s joint health: 

• Omega-3 Fatty Acids: These supplements, found in fish 

oil, can help reduce inflammation. We’ll guide you on how 

to incorporate them into your dog’s diet safely. 

• Weight Management: Keeping your dog at a healthy 

weight is crucial. Extra pounds put more strain on their 

joints, so we’ll work with you to develop a balanced diet 

and exercise plan. 

• Physical Therapy: Just like humans, dogs benefit from 

physical therapy. Tailored exercises and stretches 

can improve joint function and muscle strength. 

Hydrotherapy, or water therapy, is especially gentle on 

joints and very effective. 

Making Your Home Comfortable 

Small changes at home can make a big difference for a dog 

with arthritis: 

• Non-Slip Mats: Adding non-slip mats or rugs on slippery 

floors can help your dog move around more confidently 

without the fear of slipping. 

• Orthopaedic Dog Beds: Invest in a good orthopaedic 

dog bed. These beds provide excellent support and 

cushioning, helping your dog rest comfortably. 

• Ramps: Using ramps instead of stairs helps your dog 

avoid the strain of jumping or climbing. This is great for 

getting in and out of cars or navigating steps. 

• Raised Food and Water Bowls: Elevate your dog’s food 

and water bowls. This simple change means they don’t 

have to bend down as much, reducing strain on their neck 

and joints. 

• Slings or Harnesses: For dogs with severe mobility issues, 

a sling or harness can be very helpful. It allows you to 

support your dog and help them move around without 

putting extra pressure on their joints. 

At Kōwhai Vet Clinic, we’re here to support you and your 

dog through every stage of their arthritis journey. By 

combining medical treatments, supportive therapies, and 

a few home adjustments, we can help your furry friend live 

a comfortable and happy life. If you have any questions or 

need personalised advice, please don’t hesitate to reach out 

to us. Together, we can make a world of difference for your 

beloved pet. 

For any specific treatments and recommendations tailored 

to your dog’s condition, please consult with us at Kōwhai 

Vet Clinic. We’re always here to help.

TREASURES FROM THE PAST 

From Polly Woodside to Rona and back 

• By Steve McKelvey 

OF THE many sailing ships in 

Te Ūaka Lyttelton Museum’s 

online collection only one or 

possibly two remain floating. 

Many were among the 

hundreds wrecked on the New 

Zealand coast, sunk during 

World War 1, or broken up when 

old and no longer useful. Some 

spent their last days as hulks 

towed around ports, carrying 

coal for refilling steam ships’ 

bunkers. 

One of the sailing ships in our 

photograph collection was used 

to provide coal to steam dredges 

in Melbourne, Australia in the 

early 1960s. 

She was the coal hulk Rona, 

which had a previous special 

connection with Lyttelton, 

where she often visited between 

as a three-masted barque 

carrying timber, coal, grain, and 

produce. From 1904 until 1912 

she was registered in Lyttelton. 

Her original name was Polly 

Woodside. 

In 1885, the Polly Woodside, 

owned by William Woodside, 

was launched in Belfast, 

Northern Ireland. A steel-hulled 

ship, she was 58.5m long with 

a gross tonnage of 678 imperial 

tons. She carried bulk cargo 

such as coal, grain, and fertiliser 

mostly between Britain and 

North and South America. 

After the Woodside family 

moved to California, the Polly 

Woodside was sold. 

The New Zealand purchasers 

in 1904 were AH Turnbull, a 

Christchurch merchant who had 

shipping interests, and Captain 

Hugh Monro of Lyttelton. The 

Polly Woodside was renamed 

Rona after Monro’s daughter. 

In 1906, Arthur Turnbull’s

brother David, a Timaru grain 

and seed merchant who owned 

DC Turnbull and Co, joined 

them to incorporate the Colonial 

Sailing Ship Company Ltd. 

The company operated three 

sailing vessels, the Rona, Wai-iti 

and Lutterworth, trading mostly 

on the New Zealand coast and 

the Australian run. Coal and 

timber were the main cargoes. 

All three eventually 

became coal hulks, the Waiiti 

in Lyttelton Harbour, the 

Lutterworth in Wellington, and 

Rona in Melbourne. 

In 1911, Rona was sold 

for £3,000 (NZ$900,000) to 

Auckland owners, and then 

purchased by Wellington ship 

owner George Scales in 1916. 

The ship traded in the Pacific 

and often returned from San 

Francisco with cases of benzene. 

Many New Zealand maritime 

apprentices served their time on 

the Rona including Captain Roy 

Champion, who later became 

Harbour Master of Lyttelton. 

In 1922, the Rona made her 

last trans-Tasman voyage from 

Wellington to Sydney. The 

37-year-old barque had been 

sold to the Adelaide Steamship 

Company. 

After having masts and 

rigging dismantled, she was 

used for loading coal onto steam 

ships. Two years later she was 

towed to Melbourne where she 

continued as a hulk until 1943. 

Rona’s next chapter was in 

New Guinea where she was 

drafted into service as a barge 

for the Australian Navy, being 

towed to various ports over the 

next three years. 

Finally back in Melbourne, 

Rona continued carrying coal. 

In 1962 with the decline in 

steam, Rona’s future looked 

uncertain, however a proposal 

was put to the National Trust of 

Australia to restore her. 

After much discussion, 

planning, and fundraising, 

volunteers (mostly from a 

seafaring background) began the 

physical work in 1973. 

In 1978, the renamed Polly

Woodside was opened to the 

public as part of a new maritime 

museum in Melbourne, housed 

in a restored wooden-walled dry 

dock at South Wharf near the 

mouth of the Yarra River. 

She is described as a ship that 

circumnavigated the world 17 

times, travelling 2.5 million 

kilometres. 

As for the Rona’s Lyttelton 

owners, DC Turnbull and Co is 

still going strong in Timaru after 

130 years. The Turnbull brothers 

and Captain Monro went on to 

expand the Canterbury Steam 

Shipping Company, owning 

well-known coastal shipping 

vessels such as the Calm, Breeze, 

Gale, and Storm.

REAL ESTATE 

Reimagine and Transform 

29 Ripon Street, Lyttelton 

Deadline Sale by 24 July (USP) 

3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 1 kitchen/dining, 

1 living, no garage or off-street parking 

Listing No. RH1251 

Open Home: Sun 21 July 1pm-1:30pm 

Here is a once in a lifetime invitation to 

reimagine, renovate and transform this early 

1900s Villa into the Lyttelton home of your 

dreams. Prime location. Fantastic sun exposure. 

Easy access. Single level. The potential is 

undeniable and the hard work is inevitable. 

On offer here is an exceptional opportunity 

for buyers who have the passion, vision, 

renovation and building skills to bring this 

home back to its former glory; to create an 

ideal forever family home in this sought 

after location. 

Primarily in original condition, the home is 

configured to offer a large separate lounge; 

open plan kitchen with dining; internal 

bathroom with shower over bath and vanity; 

three double bedrooms; and an external 

separate laundry with toilet. 

Whether you choose to renovate or completely 

rebuild, this prime elevated and easily accessible 

land parcel with potential harbour views, 

ensures the possibilities here are favourable. 

Make no mistake this is not for the faint of 

heart. But fortune favours the brave, and 

seldom do you get a chance to strip a home 

back to the bones and restart. Then job done, 

the hard decision will be to either move in 

and enjoy your hard work, sell it for the next 

project, or start your investment portfolio. 

All options are a win for this property - so 

long as you can roll your sleeves up and get 

stuck in with your specialist team. 

Imagine if this was one of the last true 

renovation opportunities in Lyttelton - will 

you be disappointed if you didn’t grab this 

while it existed? See you at the Open Home, 

or better yet, book a private viewing and let’s 

talk design ideas.
