Lyttelton Harbour Morning Tea Event Cholmondeley House Launches Funding Appeal
When a child is vulnerable and a family is in crisis Cholmondeley (Chum-ley) steps up to provide short term care and education. Situated in Governors Bay, Cholmondeley provides emergency and planned short term respite care for children aged between 5-12 years whose families are experiencing distress and their current systems of support are inadequate or not available. Since 1925 it has provided care for over 25,500 children. Short term can be defined as anything between 24 hrs to four weeks but the average is between 3-5 days. The service is non-prescriptive and can be flexible to meet the child's and their family's needs. As a result of the February 2011 earthquake the original Cholmondeley Home was demolished. And since this date the services have been located at Living Springs, 10 minutes up the road at Allandale, while a replacement home is designed and built. As a charity providing emergency and short-term respite care for Canterbury children, Cholmondeley House is seeking donations following a significant increase in demand for its services. Those interested in donating to Cholmondeley House can visit www.cholmondeley.org.nz to make an online donation, or learn about how you can help in other ways.

Vale John Cleaver Gifts to Lyttelton
Last week the Lyttelton township lost one of its community champions, Captain John Donald Cleaver. This loss to the community will be wide spread and Wendy Everingham has written the following in acknowledgment of all that he has given to this community: Captain John Cleaver died at the age of 85 after a sudden illness. For myself I had only known John for ten years but he was quite influential in my community life. Early on I can remember going to visit him and his wife at their home on Reserve Terrace. At that stage he was filling me in on all the work he had done with Project Lyttelton. He wanted me to have all the past designs for the Main Street project that he’d helped coordinate. For those of you who may not know this, John was one of the founding members of Project Lyttelton in 1994. He helped create an organisation that would have been quite unique for its time. A community group that was proactive rather than re-active to the wishes of the community. He gave the current Project Lyttelton team the foundation to create all the great community initiatives that have evolved from the organisation over the last ten years. He was also instrumental in the founding of the Lyttelton Harbour Information Centre. He was the Chair of that organisation until 2007 when he handed the reins onto me. One of the key projects that he facilitated was documenting the townships history leading to the registration of Lyttelton Township as an Historic Area with the Historic Places Trust. He painstakingly collected any historical documentation for the town and to this day we have that folder as a resource at the Information Centre. His other major historical achievement was the creation of the Torpedo Boat Museum at Magazine Bay. Working closely with his good friend David Bundy and others they restored the old Magazine Building to hold the remains of the Torpedo Boat. Over many years he also worked tirelessly to get the Lyttelton Gaol restored. The earthquakes meant this dream was unable to be realised in his life time. For many years he was also the Chair of the Lyttelton Residents Association. He worked hard for main street improvements, port access improvements, noise controls and many other issues that came up. He was instrumental in the council amalgamation of Banks Peninsula with the City. John was also an active member of Holy Trinity Lyttelton. He played a role in the return of Saint Saviours to Lyttelton, helped in the building of the former church lounge at Holy Trinity plus was an active parish member. The Masonic Lodge was also a major part of his life. He’d been a member since 1952! It was lovely to see all his colleagues farewell him at the memorial service. His home lodge was the Lodge of Unanimity in St David’s Street. He tried to connect the Lodge with the wider community. Always hosting opening days for Heritage Week and pushing the boundaries to get more people to experience the building. One vivid memory I have was allowing an experimental music concert at the Lodge several years ago as an event for the Festival of Lights. I have only been able to touch on a John’s life for the last ten years so this is just a brief tribute to him for the wonderful legacy that has left this community during that period. Thank you Captain John Donald Cleaver. QSM

Build the Creche Coffee Culture Foundation Initiative
Coffee Culture sources its coffee beans directly from the Sigri Plantation in a remote area of Papua New Guinea. Sourcing beans directly from the region means that the owners have a direct relationship with the people that they source their product from. This direct relationship enables the owners to be able to help directly with the lives of their workers. Recently when workers were asked what would make their lives easier, they requested a crèche to be built to enable their children to go to school and be looked after while they were in the fields working. The Coffee Culture group comprises a series of franchised stores and the Lyttelton store is one of these. Within the franchise, the organisation has created a Charitable Foundation and it is through this foundation that all the stores seek to help the people they are working with. To make the crèche become a reality for the workers in Papua New Guinea all of the stores are trying to raise $40,000. Lyttelton Coffee Culture has a target of $2,000 to be raised by the end of August for their share of the project. Lyttelton Coffee Culture owners, Emily and Samira, are determined to meet this goal and so they are creating a series of fund raising initiatives. The first is a school holiday in store colouring competition. For a gold coin your child will be equipped with pencils and a colouring sheet. Check out some of the colourful creations already posted on the wall. If you are feeling more generous you are able to buy a tin of beautiful pencils for $9.50. 100% of this money will support the fundraising. The colouring competition will be the first of many initiatives to support this worthwhile cause. Keep an eye out for their initiatives so that you can help them reach or better Lyttelton’s $2,000 goal.
Coffee Culture Book Club Anyone interested in starting a book club up again? Wendy Everingham from the Lyttelton Harbour Information Centre was chatting with Samira from Coffee Culture and she said they would be interested to host a group. Wendy can facilitate this if anyone is interested. Contact Wendy on 03 328 9093 for more information. Articles: Lyttelton Harbour Information Centre Images: Supplied by Coffee Culture, with thanks

about the lyttelton harbour review Lyttelton Harbour Review is a community newsletter initiative developed by local Professionals real estate agent Lynnette Baird and Lyttelton Harbour Information Centre chairperson Wendy Everingham. The objective of the Lyttelton Harbour Review is to help keep local residents informed with what is going on in the wider Lyttelton Harbour community. Each week readers can read about community groups; businesses; events; and everything in between. If you have an event, topic, cause, or other, that you would like to share with the harbour community, then we would love to hear from you. Be heard, be seen, be informed - read it or offer it here.
Fate Sealed for Lyttelton Police Station Staff at the Lyttelton Police Station have accepted the inevitable - the historic station, built between 1880 and 1882, faces imminent demolition. It was red stickered after the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. Staff now work out of a prefabricated station which sits on the station car park. At 130 years of continuous use, the original station was Police’s longest serving building. Now, it is beyond affordable repair, some parts knee-deep in debris that showered down during the big shake and aftershocks. Inspector Malcolm Johnston, Southern Area Commander, says after months of engineering investigations, it had proved uneconomic to repair the station, which was badly damaged in the 22 February earthquake and subsequent aftershocks. "This is sad news for Police, for our local staff and for the Lyttelton community" he says. “The station is an iconic building for the port town, which has already lost of many of its historic buildings. Over the past several months we have worked with our engineers to explore every possible opportunity to repair the station. However we have received advice that to repair the building to an adequate standard would cost at least $1.5 million dollars. That is significantly more than the cost of a new station, and is not economic. But we remain committed to Lyttelton and we are giving the local community an assurance that Police will retain a presence here and a new facility will be built." For some good news though, pieces of the quake-damaged Lyttelton police station will be salvaged before the historic building is demolished, with the hope of reusing them when a new town station is built. New Zealand Police Museum director Rowan Carroll has been through the station and identified "unique elements", including the front door, wooden stairwell and two interior doorways with frosted windows. "We're just so lucky the glass is still intact," she said. Another notable slice of history was a patch in the stairway handrail at the top turn, which had worn right down from more than 130 years of hands passing over it. “The wooden staircase is a gem” Rowan says. “The banister curves, and staff climbing the stairs naturally hold on at that point. The result is that the wood is discoloured from generations of police hands pulling themselves up. That really struck home to me how special these artefacts are to Police history.” Significant items including the staircase, archways, doorways and windows will be rescued and stored at the Air Force Museum in Wigram. Ideally, they will be reinstated in new Police buildings in Canterbury. “If we don’t save these things now, they will be lost forever” says Rowan. Carroll said the items would be salvaged and safely stored until they could be incorporated into a new police station, hopefully in the port town. Lyttelton police are working in portable cabins beside the station until a decision is made about a rebuild. One option is developing a shared facility in Lyttelton with other emergency services on another London Street site. No date has been set for the demolition of the station, with tenders still out. Lyttelton Sergeant Gary Manch said losing the station was "terrible" and that saving anything that could be reused was "fantastic". Police were committed to an ongoing presence in the town, he said. Architectural Note: The Lyttelton police Station was designed in the Victorian Italianate style of the period 1837-1901. As a police station this particular example of the style is austere, and it therefore lacks the usual architectural details which otherwise distinguish Italianate as a picturesque style. One of the style's most prominent characteristics is present however, and indeed it is this characteristic which identifies the building as Italianate.

Illegal Tyre Dumping Scenic Rapaki Location Littered with Tyres
A busload of tourists pulled up at a Canterbury lookout yesterday, only to find the area had been littered with dozens of tyres. Christchurch Tours operator Robin McCarthy was taking a tour around Governors Bay Rd when he stopped at a popular lookout just outside Rapaki Bay. ''We all piled out expecting to look at the lovely view, but when we looked over the edge we saw the area had been covered in tyres,'' he said. ''It looked like a professional dumping ground.'' McCarthy estimated that 60 tyres had been dumped down the hill. ''There could have been more because some of them had rolled a long way down into the bushes.'' The tourists were ''not impressed'' with the sight, he said. ''It's not a good look when we promote ourselves as a clean, green country and then there is rubbish everywhere.'' McCarthy believed someone had dumped the tyres because they did not want to pay to dispose of them properly. ''It's terrible for the environment. Tyres take a long time to decompose and can really have an adverse effect,'' he said. ''It's awfully irresponsible that someone just dumped them.'' McCarthy said he had contacted Environment Canterbury and the Christchurch City Council about the tyres. He said ''a little bit of detective work'' could solve who dumped the tyres. ''Judging by the grass, they had been dumped over the last day or so,'' he said. ''If the police wanted to look at security cameras and fingerprints, we could find out who did this. There can't be that many people with this many tyres and the equipment to dump them.'' A city council spokesman said the council would look into the incident. "We will address this straight away and get it cleaned up. It looks from the photo as if someone has just dumped those there on purpose which is very serious. We want to find out who is responsible."

plenty to share In Lyttelton so many residents grow vegetables; or have fruit trees literally dripping with produce. Plenty to Share is about sharing any excess produce with the community. So if your lemon tree is yellow with goodness and you can’t keep up with making lemon curd, bring those surplus fruits down to the organisers, where every Saturday the swapping of produce is well underway in Lyttelton on the corner of London and Canterbury Street; and also in Diamond Harbour on a Saturday morning at the village centre. If there is something on the Plenty to Share table that you would like to take home, then you are warmly invited to do so.
LIFT Library Update Firstly, a recent acquisition, written for all parents, which will amuse and enlighten you at the same time: My Mother Wears Combat Boots: A Parenting Guide for the Rest of Us 2007 Jessica Mills Written with humour, extensive research, and much trial and error, this book delivers sound advice for parents of all stripes. Amid stories of bringing kids (and grandparents) to women’s rights demonstrations, taking baby on tour with her band, and organising cooperative childcare, Jessica gives detailed nuts-and-bolts information about weaning, cloth vs. disposable diapers, the psychological effects of co-sleeping, and even how to get free infant gear. This book provides a clever, hip, and entertaining mix of advice, anecdotes, political analysis, and factual sidebars that will help parents as they navigate the first years of their child’s life.’ Inequality: a New Zealand Crisis 2013 Ed. Max Rashbrooke The divide between New Zealand’s poorest and wealthiest inhabitants has widened alarmingly over recent decades. Differences in income have grown faster than in most other developed countries. New Zealand society is being reshaped, stretching to accommodate new distance between those who ‘have’ and those who ‘have not’. Income inequality is a crisis that affects us all. A diverse gathering of New Zealand scholars, journalists, researchers, business leaders, workers, students and parents share these pages. It’s not just serious articles, full of comprehensive details – there are also, following each one, a ‘viewpoint’, written by someone personally affected by the issue discussed. If you read nothing else in the book, read these. Generation Zero’s Speaking Tour: What’s the Holdup? Getting New Zealand Moving on Climate Change In review of attending this talk, naturally the large audience consisted mainly of young people, as that is the nature of the movement – getting the young activists to stir-up us oldies! They made powerful points about smart energy solutions, in transport, heat & industry, and electricity, as well as actions to take, especially with local body elections coming up. For example, later you will be able to find out what your local candidates are thinking about local solutions to climate change, by going to their website: http://generationzero.org.nz. There’s a lot of ideas there! And I have some of their handouts if you’d like them. And here is some more to read about. Try these websites I’ve been put onto recently. I just want more time free to read them! 1. www.kiwisconnect.org.nz 2. http://wiseresponse.org.nz A talk is scheduled for Christchurch, 14th August. Christchurch Polytechnical, Madras Street Campus 7.30pm Farmers Market Forum | July 27 and 28 If you enrol in this event you can join in with Saturday 27 film sessions provided by LIFT at The Portal 1.00-2.00pm and 4.005.30pm if there is a demand. There will be a selection of films on Farmers Markets, food production, and ways in which Farmers Markets can help in educating the public in wise ways of living. LIFT’s Next Film Eveing | Monday 5 August At The Portal, Oxford Street at 7.15pm. Featuring “The Economics of Happiness” and Creating Prosperous Communities— CoOperatives in Maleny”. These documentaries take us from the problems of globalisation to the benefits of localisation. Lyttelton is already active in localising, but there are plenty more ideas here for us! And finally, today’s quote: You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.

Oops! Last week in the Lyttelton Review we ran an article on the Fifth Ship art installation by Trent Hiles located on the corner of London Street and Canterbury Street. Attached to the Review was a chart of all the ships flags that readers and visitors to Lyttelton could refer to it in unlocking the poem to this brightly coloured artwork. Unfortunately last minute technical difficulties meant that we couldn’t upload the file correctly, so we have included this artwork again in this issue. Our apologies to Trent for this.
Banks Peninsula Zone Committee Focus on Sediment Issues
The Canterbury Water Banks Peninsula Zone Committee will meet for its regular monthly public meeting on Tuesday 23 July, at the Governors Bay Hotel, in Governors Bay. A key focus for the meeting will be sediment issues in and around Whakaraupo Lyttelton Harbour. The committee will receive a report from Canterbury University summarising the research papers and reports on sedimentation and circulation in Whakaraupo Lyttelton Harbour. The report highlights gaps in the research that has been undertaken to date and identifies a number of actions that could be taken to reduce inputs in to the harbour. The committee will also receive a report from Environment Canterbury on ecological monitoring in the harbour and mudflats. This report highlights the effect of sediment on the ecological health of the mudflats and recommends sediment control measures be taken in the main contributing catchments. At the meeting, the committee will also consider two proposals to fund planting and fencing along local waterways – one in Head of the Bay [Lyttelton harbour] the other on Okains Bay. To date around $75,000 has been allocated for biodiversity work in the Banks Peninsula zone. The committee has further funding for this type of work. You can find more information and an application form by searching ‘Immediate Steps’ at www.ecan.govt.nz/canterburywater. At Tuesday’s meeting, the committee will also receive a summary compliance report from Environment Canterbury for Banks Peninsula since January 2013. The Banks Peninsula Zone Committee typically meets on the third Tuesday of each month. Zone Committee meetings are open to the public.

Changes to the Way Some Buses Look With the sale of Leopard’s urban services to GoBus now finalised, Environment Canterbury is advising people that they are likely to start seeing some changes to how the buses look. The fleets from both companies are now being combined which means there is the potential for Leopard branded buses to be travelling GoBus routes and vice-versa. Gradually all Leopard branding will be replaced, and the bus livery changed to that of GoBus; however, until this transition is complete passengers are being made aware that the bus they catch could look different to what they are accustomed too. The actual bus services are not affected by these changes; all buses will continue to travel routes as usual. It is best to look at the destination board, but if in doubt ask the driver. If the public are unsure about anything on the Christchurch Metro network, they are encouraged to contact the MetroInfo team by phone 03 366 8855 Top: The outgoing Leopard branding Bottom: GoBus branding which will eventually replace the Leopard livery
Road Closure: Main Road, Sumner Main Rd will be closed between 9pm and 5am from the 21st to 26th of July, between Shag Rock and Clifton Hill Road. The road is being closed to allow the containers to be reset as they have slumped due to the ongoing shakes. The containers will be picked up and moved, the road under them fixed and then the containers placed back in their original location. Contractors have set aside the 5 nights for the work but hope to have it completed quicker than this. Darren Wright, Chair, Sumner Community Residents Association. 021 511 325
Have your say on Wairewa/Lake Forsyth Come along to an open day focussed on the issues facing Wairewa/Lake Forsyth to share your thoughts on the lake, and how these could be addressed. The day is being hosted by Environment Canterbury and the Banks Peninsula Zone Committee on 3 August. The zone committee is tasked with working with community members to develop solutions to local water management challenges. Your feedback will help the committee develop its solutions to feed in to the sub-regional chapter for the lake’s management. Once developed, these water management solutions will be reflected in the Wairewa sub-regional section of the proposed Land & Water Regional Plan (pLWRP). The pLWRP is designed to deliver the community’s aspirations for water management as outlined in the Canterbury Water Management Strategy (CWMS). We encourage you to come along and look forward to hearing your ideas.
Open Day Details: Wairewa/Lake Forsyth Open Day: 9am - 5pm, 3 August 2013 Little River Service Centre, Akaroa Road, Canterbury (Across from the Little River Café and Store).
