From the mouths of children Kids have a unique way of looking at things, and maybe it’s time we consider what they want from our city. Baycourt will bring that possibility to life with the upcoming Lookout performance, running on February 14-16. The performance takes audience members and turns them into participants, not just spectators, and has them chat to local kids about their ideas for the growing city. “Audience members will meet at the Baycourt Box Office and our front of house staff will walk them to the Lookout location – which is a building that isn’t usually accessible to the general public,” says Baycourt manager James Wilson. Attendees will be taken to the top of Toi Ohomai’s Bongard Centre – offering a spectacular view of the city – to look out and contemplate the future of Tauranga. “Audience members will get to have a conversation with each child about the future of the city,” says James. “There’s eight performers that are stood in their own space and participants will get to hang out with one child and have a conversation.” James says he first saw Lookout in Brighton four years ago. “I had this amazing conversation with a girl called Olivia about how Brighton was changing

– they’d just built a big observation tower on the beach that looked like the London Eye and she was very cynical about who was paying for the tower,” he says. “She said: ‘they’re giving free rides to all the schoolchildren’ and I said: ‘that’s really exciting’ and she came back with: ‘no, that’s called bribery’. “It was amazing having this conversation with an eight-year-old who was so aware of the politics of the city.” The performing children, from Papamoa Primary School, will be spending the next few weeks working with Lookout artist Andy Field and producer Beckie Darlington. Since its first performance in 2016, Lookout has toured the world – being performed in various countries and languages, including China, Brazil, Canada and Bangkok. James says Andy and Becky are looking forward to the performance being conducted in English for the first time in two years. “They’re quite used to working through translators and they’re quite excited to not have to do that here.” “Because the structure is so simple and the themes are so universal, it’s a show that’s been taken all around the world,” he says. But what can Lookout bring to Tauranga? “I arrived in Tauranga for the Baycourt role about 18 months ago and I just knew immediately that this was the right city and the right time to have our own version of Lookout,”

Considering a new approach to our ever-changing city says James. “There’s so much change going on in the CBD, but at the same time people are facing questions like: ‘is the CBD closed?’ and ‘will I be able to find a carpark?’, so it’s throwing the kids right into the middle of those discussions,” he says. “I think it’s a really good opportunity for people who maybe aren’t loving the CBD at the moment to come and have a conversation about the long-term view. “The structure of the show itself moves forward 30, 60 and then 90 years, so it’s taking that really long horizon-type view of when those kids will be 40 or 60 years old.” Lookout was performed in Auckland two years ago and James says his favourite part of that show was the kids’ growth. “It’s pretty exciting to see how, at that age, they’ve got really strong ideas but they’re still trying to find the confidence to articulate and share those with people. “That’s one of the reasons I love working with Andy,” says James, “his work is really about how kids have a great contribution to make now; not in 10 years. It’s saying that they should be listened to now.
“That’s something that’s really specific about how he works – he makes a space that allows them to feel confident.” And Lookout is the first of a new type of show coming to Baycourt, says James. “Lookout is part of a new body of work we’re going to be running called ‘Made in Tauranga’. “The idea is to bring artists – whether they’re domestic or international artists – to come in and work with the local community. “Baycourt can sometimes be seen as a place where touring shows come, but we’re turning that on its head and inviting those artists in to make work that’s specific to this city – I think that’s the role of an arts centre that’s in the centre of a city,” says James. Tickets are strictly limited to eight audience members per performance and with six performances over three days, it’s important you get tickets as soon as possible if you want to be a part of it. “It only takes about 25 minutes but it’s a very deep experience in that 25 minutes,” says James.

Octogenarians go skydiving The trio of octogenarians were chuckling as they came towards me down the Oakland driveway in 13th Ave.
Shona Sharp, Jennifer Mundy, Shirley Boivin, Rex OConnor.
Rex OConnor, age 86, Jennifer Mundy, 81, and Shirley Boivin, 82, were going tandem skydiving. I wondered who the ringleader was. “When I was quite young, I’d always wanted to do a parachute jump,” says Jennifer, “but you could never afford it then.” “If it wasn’t for these jumped up birds I wouldn’t be here,” says Rex, who after 68 years is pleased to finally go sky diving. “When I was 18, I did the compulsory military training. I said I want to be a pilot in the air force. They said ‘who do you think you are?’ But I passed all the exams, kissed the right places, and everything was sweet.” After undergoing gun training, Rex learned to fly a Tiger Moth. “We had an hour each day for two weeks, and if you didn’t go solo in ten hours you were gone.” It took him six hours and 25 minutes. After that as an air force reserve, he waited for General McArthur to cross the Yellow River, so that he’d be sent over to fight. “I did seven years, but McArthur never crossed the Yellow River.” “I got called up regularly for training, but never got to jump out of a plane. I thought I was going to be a big hero but it didn’t work out that way.”
Shirley has been living at Oakland for about a year. “It wasn’t my choice to come to a rest home,” says Shirley. She’d been flatting after having to sell her home following a divorce. “I was in hospital and they wouldn’t let me out until I had somewhere to go. My daughter-in-law and son arranged for me to come here. “I’m very pleased they did, although it’s not what I planned for my life.” For Jennifer, it was her own decision to move to Oakland. “I had lost confidence at home and was having panic attacks,” says Jennifer. “I was staying with one son when he was home and when he wasn’t there I had another son stay with me for the night. But it just wasn’t practical. My family were willing to do it but I didn’t want to put that on them. “They can come and see me here, and they do, and can take me out.” Rex has been an Oakland resident since November 2018 when he had a small heart attack. “The doc said ‘you’re not going to live by yourself anymore’.” One of Oakland’s three activities coordinators Shona Sharp had the idea for a residents bucket list after Rex flew in a Tiger Moth a few weeks earlier. “I introduced him to a gentleman; you’d swear they’d known each other for years. Rex got into his Tiger Moth like a big kid and came back with
˜° January 31 January, , 2020 ˛˝˛˝ ˛° August, ˛˝°˙
Ticking and kicking the bucket list the biggest smile. We took a group of residents out to see him go up and they were smiling just as much. And that sort of started the bucket list.” The list has included a range of activities from dolphin watching to a picnic at Omokoroa beach, digging toes into the sand. Shona’s role involves getting to know all 70 Oakland residents and their individual needs. “I try to accommodate those needs. Some just want you to sit in their room and do music therapy. It could be anything from playing their favourite song to singing a song with them.” It helps that Shona is an accomplished singer. “I’m here to help them live their lives to the fullest and enjoy it.” From the trio’s comments, clearly she is doing that, in between restoring her pink car, raising grandchildren and helping with community events. Rex told his doctor about the tandem skydive. “She came in to see me and I said ‘look get your act together, there’s usually someone popping off. We all know we’re going to die’. We’re not worried about that, it’s how we’re going to die – that’s what we’re worried about. “If I go up 10,000 feet and cark it on
the way down, then that would be in the newspapers wouldn’t it?” He chuckles. “You’re going to be in the newspapers when you die anyway,” says Shirley. “Yeah but if I die half-way down, they’ll say ‘that will teach the old bastard’,” says Rex. “There’s never a dull moment with Rex around,” says Shona. Jennifer agrees but says Rex talks a lot. Shirley reminded the other two that they were copying her idea of going tandem sky diving. There’s plenty of banter and Rex turns to confide in me. “On Monday and Wednesday nights I go to the Citz Club to have a beer. I asked her to come and she told me to get rotten,” says Rex. He is clearly enjoying the idea that the sky dive could double as a date with the two ladies. “Yeah but Shirley is looking forward to pushing him out,” says Shona. “Do you know what Rex means?” says Rex. “It’s Latin for king.” He laughs. Later above the airfield, Shirley and Jennifer both jumped. Unfortunately Rex was unable to do it, with another resident taking his place. However plans are afoot to visit a local virtual studio, so ‘watch this space’. Rosalie Liddle Crawford

The Lion and Tusk Museum Roger Mabbett was driving along Portside Drive a few months before Christmas when he noticed a small sign on the side of the road. Puzzled he went to check it out.
Diana Bomford, Tony Fraser and Hugh Bomford.
“It had ‘museum’ on it, and I thought ‘we don’t have a museum in Tauranga’,” says Roger. “So I drove in, got out, walked over and thought ‘whoa this is a museum to the Rhodesian forces’. When I told other people they didn’t know anything about it.” Roger had found ‘The Lion and Tusk’ – a museum of the Rhodesian Services Association, which was established on May 1 2018 in a unit at Mount Maunganui. I went to meet him there and he introduced me to some of the hardworking people who are running it. Walking in, like Roger, I went ‘whoa’ as I stood stunned at the massive collection of artefacts. Over the next hour, I met with Tony Fraser and Hugh Bomford and was given a tour of what is the largest Rhodesian military museum outside Africa. The Lion and Tusk Museum and the Rhodesian Forces Archives Project contains Rhodesian military history records and exhibits of uniforms, medals and equipment from the Pioneer period, Matabele War, Mashona Rebellion, Anglo-Boer War, World War One, World War Two, Malayan Emergency, Korean War, Aden Conflict, Nyasaland Emergency, Congo Border, Rhodesian Bush War, Commonwealth Monitoring Force and Op Agila. Upstairs is an extensive library, with a memorial area at one end with Rolls of Honour rescued from
Zimbabwe. Downstairs an Alouette III helicopter nestles amongst glassed custom-made displays filled with the dazzling exhibits. There’s a private collection of beer mugs showing the cap badge and stable belt colours of every Rhodesian Army unit, donated by Hennie Shoeman. There are ammunition pouches, a British 1944 water bottle and cup, machetes and bayonets, and a silk escape map covering Italy and Yugoslavia issued to Sgt Reg S.J. ‘Bok’ Parsloe who served in the Rhodesian S Patrol Long Range Desert Group. “Thousands of people have donated over the last 18 years,” says Tony. “The artefacts, objects and memories help keep everything alive and we’ll be able to pass it on to our children who come after us.” I pause in front of one display and watch part of a war film. Nearby are numerous paintings of aeroplanes by Digby Sinclair; framed rows of medals, berets, caps, helmets and hats; shields, a marching drum from the 2nd Battalion Royal Rhodesia Regiment, dress uniforms, and flags hanging from the rafters above. Nearly hidden amongst it – a small fridge packed with biltong, droewors, boerewors and cans of drink. Roger had met two cruise ship passengers who were happily browsing the movies and artefacts. “When I said that I would take them back to the cruise ships at no charge, I was told that this was the number one of the land-based activity options, in their opinion, and that they had no links with Africa.” Hugh’s wife, Diana, is one of the volunteers who help run it, ensuring it is open to the public from Thursdays to Sundays.

for social gatherings, ANZAC and Memorial Day commemorations. During the summer, barbecues are fired up in the carpark outside for get-togethers. “People come from all over – Hamilton, Auckland,” says Diana. “It’s all about the whakapapa, parents bringing their kids,” says Tony. “A lot of our Rhodesian servicemen’s sons and daughters have joined the NZ Armed Forces. We’ve had a few go over to Afghanistan and Timor. There’s a couple in the navy.” And people just turn up, like Roger, who lived for a while in Africa, and is overjoyed at discovering this museum of treasures amongst us. Rosalie Liddle Crawford

“The first time Tony came around to our place, Hugh had his trunk out - of his army stuff - and the next minute there’s a pile on the floor,” says Diana. “Basically it was Tony’s connection with the army here that helped get this started.” Tony, born in Rotorua to NZ Maori parents, joined the NZ Army in 1979 when the conflict in Rhodesia was coming to an end. “We’d just sent 74 peacekeepers to monitor the elections and the gathering of the insurgent forces that were outside the country,” says Tony. “After my initial five years of regular force service, three of us decided we’d like to go and see these countries that we’d learned about, but had never visited. So we went to Africa and walked and hitchhiked from Kenya to Johannesburg. “I was quite taken by the Rhodesian – Zimbabwe people. They looked after me. I returned to NZ with a wife from Zimbabwe, met up with the Bomfords, and decided that I should give back some of the kindness that Zimbabwe/Rhodesia showed me.” The Rhodesian Services Association was formed in the early 2000s from a basis of people who served, or whose family served, in forces loyal to Rhodesia. At a social event in NZ, the Commanding Officer of the 6th Battalion (Hauraki) Regiment, Lt Col John Dick ED, invited the association to form a museum display as part of the unit’s history room. In 2006 the Classic Flyers Museum invited them to form a display in their museum, and in May 2018 the Lion and Tusk – Museum of the Rhodesian Services Association was opened to the public in Portside Dr and is now the focal point

Salt Gypsies Journey back to happiness Heidi Steward’s mum Gloria Groot and step-dad Case were planning to live fulltime on a bus, travelling NZ once Gloria retired. “But sadly, she passed away from cancer last year,” says Heidi. Heidi and husband Paul sat down after Gloria died and discussed what was important to them and what they wanted in life. “We don’t want to be sitting here in 10 or 15 years’ time saying we should have done it. This was always our retirement plan too, but seeing Mum who never got to do it, we said we might not get the chance, so let’s do it now.” The couple, along with their two children Luca, age four, and Aliya, age 15 months, are on a journey back to happiness. They have rented out their Papamoa home and taken to the road to live in their bus. But first Paul travelled over to Case’s house in Matamata to pick up Gloria’s ashes. “Mum’s going to come on the trip with us. It’s bittersweet that we get to do this and not her. Case is really excited that we get to take her on the trip with us.” Paul and Heidi have been together for about 14 years and have always shared a love of travelling. “We started out with one of those big canvas tents going camping on weekends. When we got married, we bought a little camper van and Case kitted it out for us and made it really special.” “When I fell pregnant, we sold it and bought a
caravan so there was more room for the baby.” Luca and Aliya have been travelling around with their mum and dad ever since they were born, and are used to the lifestyle. “They’ve fitted into bus life really easily. It just comes naturally to both of them.” Heidi says she comes from a family of gypsies. “My dad Murray Buckthought and his wife Jocelyn have been living in a fifth wheeler for the last five years. They travel around the whole of New Zealand.” As well as her mum, step dad, her father and Jocelyn, she also has two sets of aunties and uncles that are all permanently living and travelling in their caravans. “There’s a lot of us, which will be nice because we’ll have support on the road. We’ll be able to go away with dad. They can help with the kids and we can meet up with the aunties and uncles as we go along. Heidi and Paul are renting their Papamoa property out so they can fund themselves to live in their house bus. Most of the rent will go towards paying their mortgage with some coming to supplement the 20 hours per week that Heidi works from her remote office in the bus. “We’ve got a little bit of savings to help us get through the summer because Paul is taking the whole summer off. Ever since I’ve known him he’s been working at least 50 hours a week. He deserves a nice break to spend with his girls.” “I just want to do something different,” says Paul, who says he has been swinging spanners since he was a teenager. As a diesel mechanic, he’s able to make

sure the bus is in top running order. The bus has sleeping quarters for both the children and parents, a small office nook for Heidi, and plenty of other room for eating and enjoying life together. “It’s got heaps of solar, so we can go completely off the grid.” The couple joined the NZ Motorhome Association and plan to purchase a Department of Conservation pass as well. “We’ll be able to stay in all the DOC camps around New Zealand.” Heidi works 40 hours a fortnight as an accounts administrator for a NZ-based training facility called Vertical Horizonz which provides training courses that help to save lives. “They’re very accommodating. I can work from the bus around the country as long as I’ve got an internet connection. “They’re an amazing company and very family focused and offered a lot of support when Mum was dying.” They handed over their house keys to their tenants, leaving one Saturday morning to travel down the coast to Ohope, then on to Gisborne, before heading to Bowentown for Christmas, then down the South Island. “I’ve had so many people saying ‘I wish we could do that’. You can. Anyone can. We’re not a rich family,” says Heidi. Paul is enjoying switching his long hours of work for more time with the children. “In New Zealand, if you want to work, you get jobs,” says Paul. “I don’t believe people sitting around
saying, ‘there’s no work out there’. There’s work, it doesn’t matter what you’re doing. You can find a job. And I can spend time with my girls. That’s the most important thing to me at the moment.” “When you lose someone you love, like my mum, it changes the way you look at life,” says Heidi. “You get so tied up in your jobs and your lives, and you never really stop to think about, why am I doing this?” Heidi and Paul are running a Facebook blog for anyone who wants to follow their travels called ‘Not all who Wander are Lost’. www.facebook.com/Notall-who-Wander-are-Lost-111375136954241 Rosalie Liddle Crawford

Visiting Christchurch My sumo wrestling sisters I was at the Margaret Mahy Park next to the Avon River in Christchurch when I suddenly noticed two sumo wrestlers in bright wigs waddle by. They were giggling. I turned to find my mother lost in uncontrollable laughter.
Jenna Meredith
“Oh no,” I thought. “It’s happening.” I have four sisters, all younger, with five years between myself and the youngest two who are twins. Two live in the South Island, and two in Tauranga. A few years ago, we went on a weekend adventure to Auckland to celebrate Yvonne, my middle sister’s birthday and since then, mostly every year, we’ve each had turns at choosing a NZ city or town to go meet up and spend time together in. This year, it was my turn to choose. I wanted to head to Christchurch after not being there for a few years, and was keen to see how it was recovering since the 2011 quakes. Thanks to Grabaseat, AirBnB and an effort at planning, the six of us plus two nieces got cheap air tickets and a quiet farm-like property near the city centre to stay at for four nights. Having arranged the bookings, I thought I’d outsmart my sisters and choose air tickets for cabin luggage only, anticipating that if large suitcases were brought along they would be stuffed with silly hats, wigs and funny costumes. Why do we do this? I think partly because my father Bob Liddle raised us to have fun performing and laughing. He died over 20 years ago, so in some ways hilarity helps us hold him close when we’re together. I thought maybe this time, as I was trying to get

over a chest bug, we’d dial things back a bit and have a gentle reflective time enjoying a quiet visit to Christchurch. Hence the cabin luggage only. Somehow a sister had outsmarted me. Somewhere, someone had managed to stuff in wigs and costumes. Of course I couldn’t help but grin. The sumo wrestlers were now running up the side of an embankment towards the top of a slide in the playground. Scores of people at the park were watching this extraordinary spectacle. I looked around and realised many thought it was part of a booked entertainment gig. One sister had found a mobile phone left behind by someone the previous day at Christchurch Airport. She managed to contact the owner, who turned up at the park, only to find she was being handed it back by a sumo wrestler. We seemed to be creating laughter wherever we went. The days were packed with a mystery tour, coffee shops, a tram ride, and visits to the Christchurch Art Gallery and Museum. Both vans had balloons and signs attached indicating we were celebrating a birthday and ‘please toot’. There were plenty of toots. Bev also brought along a mobility scooter, so my mum was able to keep up with us all, zipping around through streets and galleries as we explored. The gallery’s giant windows featuring Judy Darragh’s ‘The Grid’ became a large canvas to play with before we checked out the variety of art on show, including a display featuring light, and Ron Mueck’s ‘Chicken/Man’ caught in their eternal moment of tension balefully looking at each other. The Canterbury Museum in the heart of the city’s Cultural Precinct is a treasure trove with

early artefacts through to Fred and Myrtle Flutey’s delightful Paua Shell House full of wonderful kiwiana kitsch and paua shells. A highlight was visiting Sumner for the ďŹ rst time, with its cave and beachside cafĂŠ, aptly called ‘Beach’. The last night before returning to Tauranga, we headed out to SuRa Teppanyaki at SpitďŹ re Square near the airport for some Korean and Japanese food. Our table surrounded the chef ’s preparation and cooking area, which was entertaining to watch as we struggled through more than six delicious courses. Before sunset, we headed to New Brighton, as I’d been keen to see the area post-earthquake, after visiting friends there in 2011. On the way, we drove through Bexley, and what I realised was once a suburb full of houses and a community, then red-zoned, is now bare tracts of land. Hectares and hectares bereft of houses, returned to nature, grassed land with closed roads that once led to a community which is now forever gone. Rounding a corner across this sparse landscape, we came across a bright-red double-decker bus, that together with the dozens of street lamps left standing, and the clusters of trees and shrubs which once grew around homes, gave an air almost of driving through a quiet cemetery, but with no bodies there. Everyone was gone. It was immensely poignant as I realised this reected so many broken up lives and communities, as people were forced to move elsewhere due to the earthquakes. Soon we arrived at what I can only describe as the happy New Brighton’s beachfront with its
iconic pier. I’m ‘in love’ with this pier and think something similar would be perfect for Papamoa. It has a striking library building, cafĂŠ and restaurant at the landward end and suffered earthquake damage which has now been repaired. New and colourful is the beachfront playground, which has certainly helped regenerate New Brighton. Soon the full weekend was over, and we all headed home. Creating memories with family is Rosalie Liddle Crawford just the best.
