That's because PagesController doesn't know about Category. You can't use $this->something unless the class/object has a 'something' property. You'd need to import the CategoriesController class and instantitate it (as, eg. $categories).
But you'd probably be far better off taking this out of PagesController entirely and creating a menu element. In that, use requestAction() to get the data directly from CategoriesController. Just remember to use caching so that you're not fetching this data on every page request.
