Teen US-bound for
prestigious golf champs
CAITLIN MILES
A Darfield teenager will be
teeing off with the big leagues
in a golf championship in the
United States.
The nerves are yet to hit
Dominic Brettkelly, 16, as he
ramps up training for the IMG
Junior World Golf Championships
in San Diego in July.
He has been accepted for a
place in the 15-17 year boys’
section of the competition
which involves 1200
participants from 56 countries
competing on Torrey Pines
South Course, which has
previously hosted the US Open
and PGA tour.
Dominic’s grandfather gave
him his first golf club when
he was 18-months-old and he
joined the Hororata Golf Club
when he was six and started
training at 12.
This is the first time Dominic
will compete in the championships
and he is excited to stand
on the same course some of the
greats have.
“Mum told me as soon as I
woke up and it just made my
day. It’s going to be a surreal
experience, I’ve never played
in America so it’ll be a really
great opportunity,” he said.

Fire ban
imposed
again
FRASER WALKER-PEARCE
Unseasonable dry weather has
forced the return of a total fire
ban in the Selwyn District.
Yesterday the district council
implemented the fire ban, because
of low rainfall in the area.
The previous fire ban was
lifted on April 4 after being
reduced in January.
Darfield chief fire officer Alan
Kittelty said it was the closest to
winter he could remember a ban
being implemented.
No outdoor fires can be lit in
the district, and the burning of
crop stubble is also not allowed.
Gas barbecues with water nearby
are allowed, but not charcoal
barbecues.
All fire permits previously
issued by the district council are
also cancelled.
Selwyn’s principal rural fire
officer Douglas Marshall said
vegetation had become dry, and
meant fires could “quickly get
out of control.”
Mr Kittelty said the fire ban
was put in place out of “necessity”.
“It is pretty late in the piece to
be in this situation, but it’s been
pretty dry, we haven’t had a bit
of rain for a while,” he said.
Mr Marshall said the district
council would review the ban
regularly, and will lift restrictions
“as soon as it becomes safe”.
Mr Kittelty said if anyone sees
a fire burning out of control, they
should “get in touch with us as
soon as possible.”
A fee of $1150 can be charged
for a fire call out if a fire has
been lit which breaches fire restrictions.
The fee is given back
to local volunteer fire forces.

Battle over for new hall
CAITLIN MILES
After a battle with the district
council the Greenpark
community has a new hall.
The Greenpark Hall was badly
damaged in the September 2010
and February 2011 earthquakes
and had to be demolished.
The district council considered
not building a new one
as the Lincoln Event Centre is
close to the area but residents
said they needed it to be rebuilt.
“We have more people moving
into the area and need a
space for people to meet. It’s
important that we have a hall,”
said Greenpark Memorial Community
Committee chairman
Terry Lassen.
The community also lost
Greenpark School in 2012 and
Mr Lassen said it was hard losing
both the school and hall in a
short space of time.
“It was hard losing both, so
when they considered not rebuilding
it we stuck to our guns
and got what we wanted,” Mr
Lassen said.
The new hall has been built
in Greenpark Domain and can
be used for many community
events.
“It can be used for sports and
community gatherings, dances
and anything the community
need it for, we wanted it to be
able to be used for anything,” he
said.
The total cost of the build
was $849,085. The fit-out of the
building was funded through
grants and donations.
Mr Lassen said it’s exciting
news for the residents who have
been fighting for the hall to be
rebuilt.
The facility will include a
large meeting room, floor space,
storage rooms and lockers and a
kitchen.
The hall is being officially
opened on Sunday, May 22, by
Selwyn MP Amy Adams. The
celebrations will start off with
the original foundation stone

being transported to and laid at
the hall. The war memorial and
plaque will be unveiled which
will be rededicated by Ivan Norton,
the Greenpark RSA president
before an afternoon tea and
lolly scramble for the children.
ROAD CLOSURE
Jones Rd in Rolleston will be
closed for construction work over
the weekend. The road will be
closed between Weedons Ross
and Hoskyns Rds from Saturday
9am until Monday 6am. Fulton
Hogan requested the closure on
behalf of Lyttelton Port Company
so it can install panels between
the road and rail road tracks so
vehicles can move more smoothly
over the tracks. A marked detour
will operate via Weedons Ross,
Maddisons and Hoskyns Rds
until Jones Rd reopens.
ROAD NAMES APPROVED
The district council has approved
the naming of two new roads
in the Ballymackey subdivision
in Tai Tapu. At the last district
council meeting councillors
agreed on Ardrossan Way
and Ryan Pl to be put in the
subdivision as they are relevant
to the Ryan family, which is the
name of the developer of the
subdivision.
ART SURVEY
The Selwyn Arts Trust wants
more community input into
art in the district. The trust, in
partnership with the district
council, has created a survey
asking people around the
area about the future of art in
Selwyn and what they would
like to see. The survey is on the
Selwyn Arts Trust website www.

Driver thrown from truck
Truck driver Craig Nash had a
miraculous escape after being
thrown from his crashing truck
on the Southern Motorway on
Wednesday.
In spite of the crash he texted
his boss, Peter Macdonald, from
a hospital bed a few hours later
asking if he was still needed
for an urgent delivery in the
afternoon.
“I told him he didn’t need to
worry about that. He is one lucky
cookie,” Mr Macdonald said.
Mr Nash was heading south to
deliver goods in Wigram when
his truck smashed through the
middle divider, across two lanes
of north-bound traffic before
ending up in a ditch on the side
of the road.
A witness said oncoming traffic
had to take evasive action to
avoid the out-of-control vehicle
as it crossed their lanes.
He said a truck heading north
had to do “the big swerve thing”

to avoid a head-on collision.
“There were cars and trucks
that could have been hit,” he
said.
Mr Nash has been released
from Christchurch Hospital.
It was the second serious incident
on Christchurch roads on
Wednesday.
A cyclist collided with a truck
in the central city, suffering serious
injuries.
The cyclist was riding south
on Manchester St when he was
hit at the intersection of Armagh
St and dragged underneath the
small truck.
A witness to the cyclist
incident, who did not want
to be named, said while she had
her back to the crash it sounded
“terrible”.
“I didn’t see the crash but I
heard it happen. When I looked
around there were people
standing around the man under
the truck,” she said.

Lincoln resident to
play key role in show
A Lincoln resident will be playing a key role in a
National Academy of Singing and Dramatic Art
show running this month.
Third-year NASDA student Dearna Doglione
will be playing a key role in their next show The
Collective by feminist New Zealander playwright
Jean Betts.
The Collective uncovers German poet, playwright
and theatre director Bertolt Brecht’s past and how
he became highly respected in the theatrical world.
Doglione’s role in the show is to play one of the
women credited to significantly contributing to
Brecht’s theatrical work.
“Basically, he used intelligent women’s yearning
to work together for “the cause” for his own desires;
he seduced them into writing plays for him,”
Doglione said.
She said everyone who has studied acting has
heard of the great Brechtian methods but the story
will be uncovering the women behind his most
famous works.
The show will be directed by free-lance director
Mel Luckman.
“You don’t need to know anything about Brecht
. . . it’s not a history lesson, it is not a history lesson,
it is not a lecture but is very entertaining,” she said.
The Collective will be performed at the NASDA
Theatre based at the Ara Institute of Canterbury city
campus on Madras St.
The show will be running from May 13-19,
7.30pm. Tickets are $18, ($12 concession). To book

Skate parks start to roll
CAITLIN MILES
Leeston and Darfield skate
parks are in the process of being
upgraded.
Following planning and
public consultation by the
district council, construction is
under way at Leeston and once
upgrades are finished there work
will start in Darfield.
Upgrades at Leeston skate
park started in April and include
additional rails, ramps and more
seating. Darfield plans show a
new shelter, rails, half pipe and
beginner half pipe.
The public consultation allowed
for young people to get
involved and have their say on
what they wanted to see in the
upgrades.
“It was great to have young
people want to be involved in
the process, especially since
they are the ones who will be
using it,” district councillor Sam
Broughton (right) said.
Some mothers also added
their input into what safety
measures were in place for the
children.
“Mothers wanted to make sure
children of all ages could use
the park and that there would be
enough space for everyone to
use it,” district councillor Sam
Broughton said.
Kieran Lynch is happy to see
the Leeston
skate park is
going through
upgrades and
he is looking
forward to
seeing them
completed.
“It’s gonna
be really cool.
I like the way the quarter pipe is
included,” he said.
The extensions have been in
the planning process for some
time, Cr Broughton said it’s nice
to see that after several months
of planning and approving funding
the work is being carried
out.
“It’s good to have the facilities
already in place and to be
able to upgrade them for our
families and young people to
use.”
EXTENSION:
Leeston park
upgrades
include more
ramps, rails
and open
spaces to
encourage all
confidence
levels. Work
on the
Darfield skate
park (below)
is expected to
start soon.
Upgrades are being carried
out by Hunter Civil and
work on Leeston Skate Park is
expected to be completed in the
next month.
Once these upgrades are
completed work will start in
Darfield with additional landscaping
also taking place.
WATER ARTICLE CORRECTION
In last week’s Selwyn Times
(Anger over water management
research, page 7) a number
of comments were attributed
to district councillor Pat
McEvedy in regards to the
academic research that criticised
Environment Canterbury’s
water management process.
Cr McEvedy did not make the
comments. He was misquoted
in the article. The Selwyn Times
apologises to Cr McEvedy for
the errors. The article also said
Cawthron Institute research
showed the Selwyn Waihora
Zone Committee was divided
along interest group lines. This
was incorrect. It should have
read that those who had engaged
with the zone committee were
divided largely along interest
group lines.
COMMITTEE MEMBER SOUGHT
The Selwyn Waihora Zone
Committee are seeking a
replacement member after
city councillor Tim Scandrett
indicated he wanted to step
down. He said it would be
preferable if an elected member
who lives in the area would
take on the role. Cr Scandrett
said the meetings often clash
with his Spreydon-Heathcote
Community Board meetings and
other commitments making it
difficult to keep up to date with
the committee.

EMMA-JANE MCLENNAN
Callie and Nic Christie got
married on April Fools’ Day.
The couple, in their 40s,
had just one month to plan the
wedding but it turned out to be
“such a wonderful day,” Mrs
Christie said.
“It was a little bit of a rush,
but we got it organised with
help from family and friends.
We didn’t get too tied up in the
details, I just let the dressmaker
do her thing, and same with the
florist and the cake maker. They
know what they’re doing.”
The couple are part of a rise
in weddings and civil unions in
Canterbury.
Latest data from Statistics NZ
shows that while marriages and
civil unions went down in New
Zealand last year, Cantabrians
bucked the trend with a rise in
couples tying the knot.
New Zealand residents registered
19,947 marriages and civil
unions last year, down slightly
from 20,175 from 2014, but
more than the 19,425 registered
in 2013.
Canterbury residents celebrated
2655 marriages and civil
unions last year, up from 2589
in 2014. The statistics are based
on where couples live – not
where they were married.
Celebrant Julie Lassen, who
married Callie, 42, and Nic, 43,
said she had “definitely” noticed
a rise in bookings.
“There’s been a steady increase
over the past few years
and it has definitely been a
busy season. We’ve got a lot of
second-time-around marriages
as well.”
Mr Christie had previously
been married, and has two children,
Bella, 14, and Jackson, 12.
Mr and Mrs Christie met just
over four years ago, set up on a
blind date. A month later they’d

moved in together, and a year
later they booked the wedding
venue – Cossars Wineshed at
Tai Tapu – Mrs Christie said.
“We just got serious really
quickly. We booked the
venue three years ago, because
I wanted to do my girl thing
and lose a bit of weight first. We
actually forgot we’d booked it
though, until a month before,”
[laughing].
When she realised the date
was set, they went into fullwedding
mode and pulled off
the big day just a month later.
“We honestly just had the best
day,” she said.

Planting and nurturing native forest
Rolleston Christian School pupils started a native plant forest at their school and last week they added 150
more to the collection. The whole school got involved with many of the younger pupils getting help and
learning from the older ones. The children learnt gardening skills and how to interact with the other year
groups.
GOOD EFFORT:
West Melton
School held its
cross-country
last Tuesday at
Preston Downs
subdivision. Year 8
pupil Eva ran 3km
and won the heat

their native forest.
LEARNING: The pupils
learnt how to plant and
how to look after the 350
existing plants.

“I live and paint in a beautiful
rural Bay on Banks Peninsula,
surrounded by the ruggedness of
the landscape and the constant
and ever changing rhythm of the
sea.
Change is constant, something you
can either embrace or ignore. Either
way, change challenges us all.
This exhibition is entitled ‘Tipping
Point’, inspired by that point of
change that drives us all, to try
new things and to let others go, to
change the way we think and act.
My paintings express this
excitement, the doubt and
apprehension that change forces
on us all, urging me to try new
things and to let others go.
In ‘Mad as a March Hare’, we have
a lady suspended, her thoughts in
the cloud, searching to find where
her next step in life in will take her,
while below normality exists.
For the Hare, March means
madness, no fear, a month of
change and a new era begins and
the excitement of the unknown.
Like the Hare, when I am in ‘My
Zone’ as an artist in my studio in
Port Levy, my imagination takes me
to places unknown, experiences
and thoughts unheard of, and it
is through my paintings that I can
truly express these feelings.
Where they will lead me is unknown,
but just like the Hare, that is what
inspires me.”
Jacqui is an artist of figurative
subjects with life and energy. Jacqui
lives and paints on an isolated farm
in Port Levy, Banks Peninsula with
her husband and daughter Phoebe.
While Jacqui’s subject matter is
invariably the human form, it is
secondary to her exploring form,
structure, movement, colour and
texture. In her recent body of work,
there is a translucent feel which
gives the paintings a whole new
interest.
She has been painting and
exhibiting for a long time. Jacqui
is also a past winner of the annual

Melanie Smith replies to
last week’s column All dogs
are born good.
In response to “dogs need
socialisation” and its subject
of dog attacks your writer
makes amongst other
statements “Pit bulls are
not born dangerous, I can
guarantee you that”, in fact
she can do no such thing!
It is not possible to
guarantee anything about
any creature which has a
mind of its own and thinks
independently. Even if the
animal is generally good
natured, illness, fear or mood
can change that .
Also stated is the fact that
pit bulls are used for dog
fighting .That’s dog against
dog which is not the case with
the other breeds mentioned .
Jack russells were bred
to hunt foxes as were fox
terriers. Dachshunds hunted
badgers, rabbits and foxes and
chihuahuas, small game and
vermin. They were not bred
to kill each other.
Not enough is done to
remove roaming dogs from
our streets regardless of
breed. They are a nuisance
and an accident waiting to
happen.

Key bridges
in line for
upgrades
TOM DOUDNEY
Many of Canterbury’s ageing
bridges will need to be upgraded
over the next 30 years with the
impact of heavy vehicles a major
contributing factor.
A proposed update to a section of
the Regional Land Transport Plan
states that “key bridges on the strategic
road network are a particular
concern with regard to increased
truck numbers and weights.”
According to analysis completed
as part of the South Island Freight
Plan, overall freight activity in
Canterbury is forecast to increase
by 85 per cent by 2042 with most
growth occurring by 2027.
The use of ‘high productivity
motor vehicles’ which can carry
more freight has minimised the
increase in truck trips needed
to carry the increasing freight
volumes.
However, increasing heavy vehicle
numbers over time on the road
network were “an inevitability” it
was stated in the plan.
The New Zealand Transport
Agency has installed equipment
underneath the road at the Rakaia
and Waipara bridges on State
Highway 1 in recent years, to
monitor the impact of heavy
vehicles and catch truck drivers
flouting weight limits.

Prolonged toxic algae bloom in
Steve Lowndes,
Banks
Peninsula Zone
Committee
chairman, gives
his view on
Lake Forsyth
The health of Lake Forsyth
or Te Roto o Wairewa is near
and dear to me. I have lived at
Birdlings Flat (Poranui) for the
last 15 years and my home looks
out to the lake. My attachment
to the lake is strong. I love her
different moods and interplay
with the surrounding hills, sea
and sky.
It saddens me that the lake is
sick. This summer we have had
one of the most prolonged toxic
algae blooms for years.
We cannot blame intensive
dairying, large scale irrigation or
industrial discharges as there are
none in the catchment. Unfortunately,
much of the blame lies
with early timber millers who
logged the catchment to provide
timber to build Christchurch
and in the process released large
quantities of phosphorous-rich
sediment that ended up in the
lake. Phosphorus is a natural
element of the volcanic soils of
Banks Peninsula.
Toxic algae blooms are not
new. The first recorded bloom
was in the late 1800s when a
rowing regatta was cancelled
because of algae in the lake.
The sediment that came down
the catchment in the 1860s is
still in the lake. The rate of accumulation
has decreased as the
hill healed over the years but
still large amounts of sediment
come into the lake during flood
events.
It is phosphorous that feeds
the annual toxic algae blooms
and unfortunately phosphorous
is recycled each year through the
algae back into the sediment on
the lake floor then back through
next year’s algae bloom. We
could still be recycling phosphorous
from 1860s.
Why is it so bad this year?
Well we don’t really know as
in spite of all the research that
has been undertaken over the
years we still don’t understand
the interplay between a number
of factors. We know phosphorus
is a limiting factor but don’t
know the role of oxygen, nitrate,
ammonia levels, salt concentrations,
temperature or plankton
grazers and micronutrients.
We think this year’s algae
bloom may be related to low
lake levels. The low rainfall
during 2015 winter meant that
the level of the lake as it entered
the summer period was lower
than it has been for the last four
to five years. We also think the
input of phosphorous laden
sediment during the three major
floods in the autumn of 2014
may have something to do with
it.
What is being done?
The Wairewa rūnanga has led
much of the recent work to clean
up the lake and has a goal to
restore it to a healthy source of
food (mahinga kai). The rūnanga
has led various research and
feasibility studies with Landcare
Research, Lincoln and Canterbury
University and NIWA.
The rūnanga has also been
working with Christchurch City
Council to trial a new lake opening.
This new opening provides
greater control on when and how
long the lake stays open to the
sea and therefore greater control
on the lake level. This month a
joint consent to continue to use
the pilot opening was granted
to the rūnanga and the Christchurch
City Council for a period
of 35 years.

Lake Forsyth
The Banks Peninsula Zone
Committee, after working with
the community and technical
experts, recommended in 2014
that, given the current state of
knowledge it was best to focus
attention on reducing further
sediment input into the lake
and understand better how
the lake works before trying
to remove and dispose of 800
Olympic-size swimming pools
of accumulated sediment.
As a consequence of these
recommendations Environment
Canterbury has proposed
changes to the Land and Water
Regional Plan which requires
stricter controls on stock
access to the river banks on
the valley floor where most
of the sediment comes from.
The hearing for Plan Change
6 (Wairewa) was completed a
couple of weeks ago.
We are hoping to see these
provisions come into effect
later in the year. The zone
committee is also supporting
the development of a sediment
management work programme
and plan a pilot project to
help landowners manage and
remediate their stream banks.
ECan has also improved its
monitoring of the lake so real
time data on a variety of water
quality parameters are collected
continuously. This will
give us a much better idea of
how the lake conditions change
throughout the year and help
us to design future actions that
don’t cause bigger problems
than the ones we are trying to
fix.
The community is also working
hard to improve management
of the main rivers to mitigate
the effects of flood events
but also manage them to reduce
sediment discharges. Stock are
already being fenced out of the
rivers and the Little River community
nursery provides native
plants and advice on riparian
planting.
There is a fine line between
management of the rivers for
flood mitigation and reducing
sediment discharges, but I am
confident everyone is aware of
these dual goals and are taking
both into account before taking
action.
Both the rūnanga and the
zone committee have been
thinking about the next big
action to take. Both, however,
are cautious about knee
jerk reactions and want to
ensure proposals are based on
good science and will work.
Currently the zone committee,
with the help of ECan, are
trying to determine whether a
sediment retention basin would
intercept sediment during
flood events before it reaches
the lake. Another idea is to
use wetland vegetation to take
up phosphorous that could be
harvested and removed from
the lake.
What is the future?
In spite of a considerable
amount of energy and
action from individuals and
organisations alike, the lake
has a mind of her own. We
thought the new lake opening
had made a difference and
we’d seen improvements in the
indicators such as the tropic
level index and the presence
of macrophytes in the lake last
summer.
But this year, in spite of our
best efforts we’ve had the algae
bloom.
Unfortunately, there is no
quick fix and no one to blame.
It will take time. There will
be setbacks and the effects
of climate change has just
made the job harder. But I am
confident that with everyone
doing their bit, Te Roto o
Wairewa will once again be
a source of food that we are
proud of and enjoy.

Pirates, Star Trek actors
come to Canterbury
EMMA-JANE MCLENNAN
A multi-million dollar movie is
set to be filmed in Canterbury
– bringing international stars
and foreign investment, and
showcasing some of our iconic
scenery.
The brainchild of Canterburyborn,
British-residing Emily
Corcoran (actress, writer and
producer for Sisterhood and
actress, Confine, among others),
the movie filming has overcome
setbacks from the earthquakes
to start filming in the next few
weeks.
Ms Corcoran tried to get the
adventure colonial western, The
Stolen, off the ground twice –
but was twice hampered by the
earthquakes.
“We were trying to get foreign
investment, so even after that,
we had to secure two highprofile
actors and a director.
We did do that and now we’re
looking to start filming.”
Starring Alice Eve (known for
playing Carol Marcus in Star
Trek Into Darkness) and Jack
Davenport (James Norrington
in the Pirates of the Caribbean
series, Lancelot in Kingsman),
the movie will be directed by
Niall Johnson (White Noise,
Keeping Mum).
Ms Corcoran wrote the
storyline eight years ago. Now
that it’s finally coming to
fruition, she says it’s a “dream
come true.”
Alice Eve
Investors from Germany
and the United Kingdom have
secured the film a $4 million
budget.
Crew are currently setting up
their base at Ferrymead Heritage
Park, with other on-set locations
all around the region, Ms
Corcoran said.
“We’re actually shooting
entirely in Canterbury, and
we believe we’ve found some
beautiful places. We’ve based
ourselves at Ferrymead, where
we’ve built some indoor sets
and we’ll be using the steam
train, but we’ve also got facades
of sets at Mt Vernon and Little
River, and a private homestead
in Rangiora.”
The film is set during the gold
rush of 1860. It is based on a
young woman and her wealthy
husband, who come out to New
Zealand from England, Ms
Corcoran said.

The district’s mobile Pop Up
Cafe is looking for a young
person to manage it.
Darfield High School’s Emily
de Rooy has been the face
behind the cafe, a Selwyn Youth
Council initiative, for the past
year.
But school commitments
mean the 17-year-old needs to
concentrate her energies elsewhere.
Emily has been managing and
working in the cafe, but also has
the Stage Challenge and this is
her last year of school. She is
also on the Selwyn Youth Council,
which operates the cafe.
The cafe was started two
years ago. It is organised and
operated by students and aims
to get young people in the community
involved in business and
learn useful skills.
“It’s been a real learning
experience, helping train people
and setting up rosters and getting
to learn more about business,”
she said.
The mobile cafe is at community
events, outside of schools
and at sports games.
“It’s been a great way to be in
the community and let people
know about the youth council,
and what we do,” she said.
All profits made from the cafe
go to the youth council, which
then administers the money to
people and organisations around
Selwyn.
“We help wherever we can,

person who got into a really
good sports team but couldn’t
afford the uniform, so the youth
council was able to help them
out and provide funding.”
Emily is now focused on
getting more young people
involved in the cafe and other
youth events around Selwyn.
“We want to include lots
of young people, it’s a great
chance to engage with the community
and learn some skills,”
she said.
Emily is looking for someone
else to take her role when the
year is over and give them the
chance to learn as much as she
has.
The Pop Up Cafe now has a
spot at Foster Park in Rolleston
every Saturday morning.
Having the best to
ensure great service
When you need to rely on your outboard motor to get you home after
a great day’s fishing or boating, it is essential to have had it serviced by
the best people available in the business.
The team at Butler Marine has been servicing outboard motors in
their current business since 1987, and, even before that, boating and
motors were in their blood.
Owner John Butler says, “We have a hands-on approach to most
problems our customer can have. If we cannot fix it we will arrange
to have it fixed.”
Butler Marine will service Suzuki, Yamaha, Mercury, Parsun, Mariner,
Johnson, Evinrude, Honda and Tohatsu outboard motors.
“We carry a wide range of parts, and what we don’t have we can
generally get overnight. We also have access to a range of second
hand parts to help keep costs down,” John says. “We are agents for
Suzuki outboard motors, the world’s best four stroke motor, and
Parsun two and four stroke outboard motors.”
He adds that now is the ideal time to get your boat serviced with
Butler Marine currently offering a winter service special.
John lives in Prebbleton and provides a drop-off, pick-up service from
the village, saving Selwyn District residents the long drive across
town. Contact Butler Marine for details.
“Our friendly, accommodating staff are more than happy to assist you
with all your everyday boating needs, and you’re welcome to come in

SELWYN TIMES
Have your say on
Malvern and Ellesmere’s
future development
Help us plan for community
spaces in Eastern Selwyn
Selwyn residents are being invited to take part in a survey to help
identify Eastern Selwyn’s current and future community space
needs as this area grows.
The survey will be used to help develop a Community Spaces
Plan for Eastern Selwyn which is expected to be released for
consultation this spring. The survey asks people how they currently
use community spaces and what activities they would like to do
locally but don’t currently. Community spaces are areas available
for community use and include libraries, community centres, halls,
meeting rooms, parks, church grounds, and can include commercial
spaces such as cafes and markets if they are used for community
activities. Eastern Selwyn extends from Rolleston to West Melton in
the north, Prebbleton and Lincoln to the east and Springston in the
south. People living outside of Eastern Selwyn who use community
spaces in this area can also complete the survey.
The survey is open until 27 May and can be completed at
www.selwyn.govt.nz/haveyoursay. Everyone who completes the
survey will go into the draw to win a $100 petrol voucher.
We are also gathering information from people for the community
spaces project at these locations this week:
· On Wednesday 11 of May at Rolleston Countdown from 11.30am-
1pm and Prebbleton Dairy from 2.30-4pm
· On Friday 13 May from 10.30am – 12noon at Selwyn Aquatic Centre
· On Saturday 14 May from Lincoln Farmers Market from 11am –
12.30pm and the Warehouse Rolleston from 2-3.30pm
The Council is also surveying community organisations and local
facilities as part of the project.
The Council
is inviting
submissions on
draft Area Plans
for Malvern and
Ellesmere
The Area Plans will guide the growth of townships in Ellesmere
and Malvern through to 2031. They include options for where
residential and business development could occur, if needed,
and future projects that may be needed in different townships.
Although the plan does not rezone any land, it will inform the
District Plan Review, which starts this year, along with other
Council plans.
Some of the ideas included in the Area Plans which we would
like your comments on include:
· carrying out town centre studies in Leeston, Darfield, Springfield and Southbridge looking at
issues like transport, beautification, accessibility to community facilities and business land in
Darfield and Springfield
· working with Kiwirail and the NZ Transport Agency to look at issues relating to the State
Highway and railway line in Dunsandel, Sheffield and Kirwee
· in Darfield looking at infill or intensification opportunities close to the town centre to provide
more housing options such as housing for older people, and also the feasibility of establishing a
walking/cycling link between McHughs Forest Park and the town along the rail corridor
To find out more, you can pick up a copy of the draft Area Plans from Council library/service
centres or read it at www.selwyn.govt.nz/areaplans. We also holding drop-in sessions where
you can find out more about the plans and talk to our staff. These sessions are at:
· Dunsandel Rugby Clubrooms on Wednesday 18 May at 6.30pm
· Leeston Library Community Room on Sunday 22 May at 1pm
· Southbridge Hall on Thursday 26 May at 6.30pm
· Darfield Recreation Centre on Sunday 29 May at 1pm
· Glentunnel Hall on Monday 30 May at 6.30pm
· Springfield Hall on Wednesday 1 June at 6.30pm
· Darfield Recreation Centre on Thursday 2 June at 6.30pm
Submissions are open until 12 noon on Monday 13 June
2016. You can make a submission online at
www.selwyn.govt.nz/areaplans or pick up a submission
form from a Council library or service centre.
What arts activities would
you like in Selwyn?
Arts and culture play an integral role in building
community spirit, developing social networks
and providing opportunities for enjoyment in the
community.
The Selwyn Arts Trust and Selwyn District Council
have developed a new survey to help identify how arts
can be improved and developed in our district. We
appreciate people taking a few minutes to complete the
survey which is online at www.selwynartstrust.org.nz
On the roads this week
Road repairs are planned along Dalethorpe, Wards, Hills and
Beethams Roads, with traffic controls in place during works. Bridge
maintenance work will take place on Waimakariri Gorge Bridge and
Cordys Road Bridge, with traffic controls in place.
Road closures – Jones, Courtenay and Malvern Hills Roads
Jones Road will be closed between Weedons Ross and Hoskyns
Roads to allow Fulton Hogan to complete the final stage of work
for a new rail siding for MidlandPort (owned by Lyttleton Port
Company). The road closure is from 9am Saturday 14 May until
6am Monday 16 May. A detour will operate via Weedons Ross,
Maddisons and Hoskyns Roads during the closure. Drivers are
encouraged to use this detour for safety reasons and should expect
a short increase in travel times.
The railway crossing on Courtenay Road in Kirwee (near the
intersection with State Highway 73) will also be closed from 7am
Sunday 22 May until 7am Monday 23 May. The closure has been
requested by Kiwirail so they can repair sleepers under the crossing.
A detour will operate via Miles Road through either Highfield Road
or Ansons Road to connect to Kirwee on State Highway 73. Tara
Bridge (south west of Bush Gully Road) on Malvern Hills Road will
be closed from 10-23 May while the bridge deck is replaced.
The new rail siding for MidlandPort on Jones Road
Total fire ban now in place
A prohibited fire season is now in place in Selwyn, effective from
8am Monday 9 May.
This means that no outdoor fires or crop stubble fires can be lit in
the district. Fires are also not permitted in Council reserves, and no
fireworks, bonfires or pizza ovens are allowed. Fire permits previously
issued by the Council are cancelled. Gas barbeques with a high
pressure water source at hand are allowed but not charcoal barbeques.
Fire restrictions have been reintroduced as low rainfall has resulted
in vegetation in Selwyn becoming very dry which when combined
with very dry soil means that fires can start easily and quickly get
out of control. A fee of $1150 can be charged for a fire call out if a
fire has been lit which breaches fire restrictions. This fee is provided
to local volunteer fire forces.

The pink socks may have helped Waihora when they played against Prebbleton last Saturday.
The Waihora senior men’s team traded their white and black socks for pink and black to honour their mums for
Mother’s Day, encouraging many mothers to watch.
The Waihora under 7s all girl team went along to the game, saluting the senior Waihora players with a guard of
honour with the help of their mothers.
The final score was Waihora 33 Prebbleton 3.
Photographer Karen Casey went along.

in the industry. It’s through this experience that Onyx Homes wants to bring to their customers a better
standard of home that is often less than the standard-plan-built homes of their competitors. Onyx believe
that everyone is unique, so why settle for a standard-plan-home when you can have a purpose-designed
plan to suit exactly your lifestyle and for less than a standard plan? A perfect fit!
This is testament to our customers who have been amazed at the savings with Onyx, but also hadn’t realised
their budget would allow for a such quality spec and design.

A gymnast turned hammer
thrower from Lincoln University
will compete in Poland.
Lauren Bruce, 19, is heading
to Bydgoszcz to take part in the
World Under-20 Athletic Championships.
Bruce bettered the international
qualifying distance at the nationals
and recent Australian championships
and will now represent
New Zealand as she competes
against others from around the
world.
She took up hammer throwing
five years ago and her 58m throw
has her ranked as the second nationally
and to throw that far she
practices up to five times a week.
Bruce juggles practice with
studying full time for a Bachelor
of Science, majoring in food science.
Getting into the team has been
a goal for several years and is
looking forward to competing.
“It is a privilege to be able to
have the opportunity to represent
New Zealand on the world stage
and I am looking forward to the
experience and the challenges it
will bring,” she said.
Bruce is heading over to Poland
on a month long trip in July
to compete and hopes to bring
home a gold. She has set her
sights on competing in the 2020
Olympics in Tokyo.

Many people ask about who can see a
chiropractor? My answer is always –
anyone of any age.
From babies following delivery to older
people who are suffering from pain or
discomfort, chiropractic care can alleviate
stress within the body and ensure you are
functioning at your optimum ability.
Since starting work as a chiropractor
more than 15 years ago, after studying
in New Zealand to become a Doctor of
Chiropractic, I have treated people of all
ages with a broad range of symptoms with
outstanding results.
Southern
CHIROPRACTIC
290 HALSWELL ROAD
There are a variety of reasons people come
to see me including the following:
Suffering discomfort or pain
These symptoms are signs of dysfunction
in your body. This is an important time to
remove nerve interference and irritation to
ensure your spine functions optimally and
symptoms are alleviated.
Accident or trauma
Car or bike accidents and falls can cause
severe spinal stress and subluxations If not
attended to these can cause or contribute
to health problems later in life.
Active exercise/sport
Chiropractic care gives you an
edge. Many professional athletes
and sportspeople seek regular
chiropractic care to ensure they
are working at their optimum.
290 Halswell Road
Chiropractic care suitable for all ages
require care following delivery. Caring for a
baby or infant can contribute to neck and/or
back pain ie: position of mother during breast
feeding and bending to pick up baby.
I provide physical solutions including
adjustments, stretches, exercises, and
muscle therapy – to readjust the body or help
it heal from conditions that are physical in
origin. These can include problems such as
back pain, muscle spasms, headaches and
poor posture.
What you may not know is that it is also
completely appropriate to receive chiropractic
care even though you may not have
symptoms. Unlike standard medical doctors
who you visit when you have symptoms
that need to be treated, chiropractors offer
adjustments to improve spinal alignment and
overall wellbeing – and can prevent the pain or
other symptoms even starting.

Grow beetroot in garden or pots
TOD PALENSKI
I’ve always thought beetroot
to be an interesting vegetable.
It’s incredibly versatile
in the kitchen. The root can
be grated raw into a salad,
roasted with winter vege,
made into a chocolate cake
and more, and the leaves can
be used in the same way you
would use spinach.
It’s also incredibly good for
you. It’s a good source of folic
acid, fibre, manganese and potassium
and the greens are rich
in calcium, iron and vitamins
A and C.
There are two main types of
beetroot. The regular round
kind and the less known
cylindra variety which, as it’s
name suggests, is a cylindrical
beetroot. Because of it’s shape
cylindra beetroot is great for
slicing and then bottling.
Next it’s simply a matter of
working out where to plant
your seedlings. Beetroot likes
well-drained, friable (breaks
apart in your hands) soil.
It grows well next to
brassicas, like broccoli and
cauliflower, which take longer
to mature and spread out. This
means you can plant beetroot
in the spaces in between your
brassicas, and harvest them
RICH IN NUTRIENTS: Cylindra (above) or the more rounded variety
are both healthy vegetables.
before the brassicas start needing
the extra room.
Alternatively, it grows great
in pots. Wherever you plant,
simply dig a little 3cm deep
hole, place the seedling in the
hole and fill in with soil.
Beetroot likes moisture as it
starts to develop so keep your
plants well watered.
In around 10 to 12 weeks
it should be ready. The great
thing about beetroot is it can
be eaten at any size, just dig it
up and enjoy.

It’s easy to grow peas
VERSATILE: Plant plenty of peas. Whatever you don’t enjoy fresh can be
frozen.
Rachel Vogan goes
green with envy
over peas
These tiny morsels of goodness
are an easy crop grow at home,
the office or at school. If left to
my own devices I could easily fill
half the magazine with growing
tips, virtues, anecdotes, facts,
funnies and figures about peas.
However, I don’t really want
to bore you to tears and put you
off peas for life. If you have
never tried growing your own
peas, you must give them a go. In
spite of looking so delicate, pea
plants are surprisingly hardy.
Try and get peas in the ground
before the end of May if you
live in the colder regions, that
way you can enjoy them months
before Christmas.
Sow successive crops once
every six weeks to extend the
harvest period. Allow 10-15cm
– about a palm width – between
each plant, as they need air and
light to stimulate leaf growth.
Ensure the area gets plenty of
sun. All peas enjoy a rich soil that
holds onto moisture, which isn’t
normally a problem over winter,
unless you have sandy soils into
which you will need to blend
bucket-loads of compost and/or
animal manure. And plant plenty!
Pea shoots are tasty additions
to salads and sammies, plus they
are an easy microgreen and are
popular eaten just at the sprout
stage.
For those who plant them
regularly, please do me a favour
and share the love and ease of
growing them with a neighbour,
friend or colleague and encourage
them to get sowing some soon.
Types to try
Blue Shelling – a Dutch
vintage variety that can be eaten
in the pod whole when young or
podded. The flowers are edible,
too. One to plant for looks alone.
Earlicrop Massey – a reliable
dwarf variety to plant out now.
It produces a hefty crop and
matures early.
Greenfeast – if you like big
fat peas then plant this one. It
definitely needs staking as plants
mature well over 1m.
Easy Peasy – almost too good
to be true, a main crop choice
that produces masses of peas in
each pod.
Novella – another dwarf
variety. You can get away without
staking this one. It produces
a good sweet crop and what I
especially like how the pods
are all on the top of the bush,
which makes them super easy to
pick.
Snow pea Kennedy Dwarf
– this is a popular cultivar from
Kings Seeds. Only reaching knee
height it has a high yield and
copes with cooler conditions.
Sugar snaps – these sweet
juicy peas can be eaten pod and
all, or, if they are left a bit longer,
fat peas will form in the shell and
these can be used in the normal
way.
Wando Select – a super-sweet
heirloom shelling pea variety
that produces a good number of
peas in each pod. Sow either in
autumn or spring.
What’s a pean?
These are not actually peas,
but a hybrid of the runner bean,
with the distinctive flavour of
fresh peas. They are usually only
available in limited numbers
from mail-order catalogues or
heirloom stockists, sought after
as they produce a prolific crop,
and pods and all can be eaten.
Support as you would runner
beans – these vines are rampant.
Seed is best sown in spring.
TREATING
Grass
Grub
GraSS Grub can be a pain!
The recommended treatment for grass
grub is to use a soil insecticide such
as Lawn Guard. There are several in
the garden centres available, usually
containing the same active ingredient,
but with their own brand name.
Ask the local garden centre for their
recommendation, and then FOLLOW
THE INSTRUCTIONS very carefully! Now
is a great time to treat grass grub while
the weather is still warm. It is a good
idea to treat the whole lawn, then give
it a sprinkle of fertiliser afterwards.
Intelligro’s Lawn Fertiliser is excellent for
creating a lush lawn. Come down and
grab a bag, even if you aren’t treating
for grass grub, if your lawn needs a
boost, get in and fertilise it now.

Seeds
Peas are super easy and
quick to grow from seed and,
at this time of year, plants
are not in the shops, so you
don’t have much choice. Most
people tend to plant them out
in spring, however, they are a
good crop
for those who want to keep
growing food over winter.
Pre-soaking pea seed speeds
up germination. Soak them in
water over night to soften the
seed coat, making it easier for
the first roots and shoots to
break out. Encourage kids to
plant them – the seeds are nice
and big, and easy to handle.
Save your own pea seeds,
they store well and germinate
easily. Make sure they fully
mature on the plants in the
pods before you pick them,
as the seeds need to be hard
before you harvest them.
Slimeballs and
feathered foes
Slugs and snails just love
the soft shoots of peas, so arm
yourself with plenty of bait or
lay grit or eggshells around
the plants to deter these pests.
Neither of them like crawling
over sharp surfaces.
Birds, especially sparrows,
find pea shoots and seeds
rather tasty. Drape some
netting over the rows or put
some twigs alongside the rows
to keep them out. Once the
plants are well up, the birds
give them a wide berth.
Support network
Pea plants ideally should be
kept off the ground to keep
slugs and snails at bay and
to ensure the best harvesting
capacity. They are easy to train
up frames, twigs or bamboo
canes, or look to specialist
frames or pieces of trellis.
Other options are to grow them
up through other vegetables
– kale and cavolo nero offer a
good robust framework – and
they do the job well at this
time of year.
Sow new pea seed now. Get them in before the ground freezes; The Blue
Shelling pea (above) looks as good as it tastes. Hailing from Holland, this
one can be eaten shell and all when young; Peans (left) taste like peas, but
are actually a bean; Peas are easy to train up almost anything – even other
vegetables such as kale.

New technology for Toyota Prado
Toyota’s engine developers are
in the process of rolling out new
power plants which will work
across a variety of vehicles and
platforms.
In the last year we have seen a
new turbocharged four-cylinder
petrol unit which is finding its
way into several models out of
the Lexus stable, and there’s
also a new four-cylinder diesel
which is powering the new
Hilux.
Interestingly, that engine first
found its way here mid-year
in the Land Cruiser Prado, it
is an option alongside the V6
petrol unit. The diesel unit is
all-new, and while its displacement
is smaller – 227cc down
to 2755cc, it is stronger, more
economical, and notably quieter
than the previous unit.
And that is important for
Prado, it is still the large, comfortable
sport utility which is
based on mechanicals engineered
to tackle the serious offroad
challenge.
Toyota rate the new diesel
with power outputs of 130kW
and 450Nm, both hefty increases
on the outgoing (127kW and
410Nm), and the points at
which they are realised are more
accessible, very low down at
3400trpm and 1600-2400rpm.
The Prado also gets a new
gearbox, it is a six-speed unit
which is up a gear from previous
generation models, the new
driveline combination is a cracker,
and given I’ve spent a lot of
time in Hilux recently, as well
as the Prado, I’ve become rather
fond of the new mechanicals.
However, the Prado has a different
role to play than Hilux,
it is one of the SUV champions
in our marketplace. It is just at
home dropping the kids off at
school as it is it out in the backblocks.
The newcomer comes well
equipped if you take into
account the series starts at
$78,490 for the GX model as
tested, ranging to $99,990 for a
VX Limited. Bear in mind there
is also a V6 petrol-powered
model at $89,490, providing a
wide-ranging choice with varying
specification levels.
However, the Prado is all
about cross-country ability and
I did squeeze in enough time to
put it through a solid clay Port
Hills track. There are a multitude
of drive configurations
on the Prado, all well tried and
tested over the years. Put simply,
TOYOTA PRADO: Serious off-road challenger.
the Prado always drives through
all four wheels.
There is a high and low ratio
dial which selects between the
two, there’s also a centre differential
lock for low grip situations
and hill descent control
system. The latter is my favourite,
it enables a feet-off-the-pedals
approach to descents.
The Prado sits high off the
ground at 220mm and it has
tyres (215/60 x 18in), and suspension
which command grip
off-road. An independent wishbone
front end combines well
with a coil spring-located live
rear axle.
The test car easily accounted
for a steep incline, it wasn’t a
testing track, for it was dry and
the surface provided plenty of
bite. But I can report that over
the rough stuff the in-cabin ride
is plush and is totally unaffected
by the jolts the suspension
absorbs. Like its stablemate, the
Land Cruiser proper, the Prado
is an off-road champion. It also
handles comparatively well
on-road, it does lean a little but
steerage always feels controlled,
and the bulk of the vehicle
doesn’t always seem apparent.
While the Prado does everything
well in terms of on and
off-road travel, it’s the new
engine which is the surprise.
Overall, the Prado travels quietly
but never before has it been

this quiet, the engine barely
makes a sound until it is well
loaded.
It’s that ability to do its job
without effort that makes the
new diesel engine so desirable,
especially so with its fuel usage
statistics. Toyota claims an
eight-litre per 100km (35mpg)
combined cycle average,
although I couldn’t get close to
that at 10l/100km (29mpg).
I don’t know when I’ll find
my way into another car (Hilux
aside) with a new Toyota engine,
but if the latest batch is anything
to go by it should be something
to look forward to.
Toyota, including Lexus, is
on a journey at the moment
whereby the power plants are
cross-pollinating through a wide
product line-up. The consumer
will be the ultimate winner with
so much choice and so many
desirable packages in terms of

DEALER FINANCE LIMITED
Dealer Finance Limited and the Commerce Commission have entered into a settlement agreement relating to
overcharged interest on loans. This resulted from Dealer Finance not crediting part repayments made by borrowers
against the unpaid balance of the loan as soon as practicable, and as a consequence, overcharging interest to the
borrower.
If you purchased a vehicle through one of the car dealers listed below between April 2005 and April 2015, which was
financed through Dealer Finance, you may be entitled to a refund of any overcharged interest, together with a 5%
uplift payment.
Dealer Finance has recently sent notification to all affected clients by mail. If you have not received this notification
please contact Dealer Finance by email on enquiries@dfl.co.nz to find out whether you are entitled to a refund.
Please include your full name, current and previous addresses, and if known, the car dealer you purchased your car
through and the vehicle registration number.
PLEASE NOTE - NO contact is required from you:
• if you still have a current open loan(s) with Dealer Finance; or
• if you have previously repaid a loan(s) with Dealer Finance (taken out between above dates) but have a current
loan(s) with Dealer Finance,
as we will be crediting your open loan or we have made or are in the process of making appropriate internal
adjustments.
A copy of the settlement agreement can be found on www.comcom.govt.nz

in the Selwyn District
An ideal family home
For those entering the new
home property market and looking
for a medium sized home then G
J Gardner homes’ show home at
rolleston is worth a look. situated in
the popular Faringdon subdivision,
this is a well-designed functional
house.
This 198 square metre show home is
based on the “Maxwell” design from
G J Gardner’s “Family” series of plans.
While many people focus on what
the exterior will look like it’s more
essential to get the floor plan and
layout of your home right,” says
Neil Fraser, who along with his wife
Joanne, own the Christchurch south
G J Gardner franchise. “The layout
will affect the way you live in the
home and can impact on the overall
cost”.
The show home is fitted out using
G J Gardner’s “express specification”
range of products selected from some
of New Zealand’s leading suppliers
with no compromise on quality whilst
still being cost-effective. As a result,
the homes are competitively priced
making them ideal for young people
and first home buyers
This show home is clad with brick
veneer, which is currently one of
the most affordable claddings that
not only looks good but is also very
durable. The stack bonded exterior
feature wall leading to the entrance
highlights one of the different
variations that can be achieved with
brick cladding.
The design of this home is ideal for
family living. on entering through
the front door, there is a feeling of
spaciousness with open plan living
from the slightly separated lounge
right through to the family living
room on the other side of the kitchen/
dining area. The kitchen is wellappointed,
overlooking the dining
and two separate living areas and also
has a large pantry offering fabulous
storage
There is good indoor outdoor flow
from the family/dining area as well as
the main bedroom.
The master bedroom has an ensuite
and walk-in robe while the main
bathroom has both bath and shower.
The fourth bedroom is slightly
separated from the other three
making it an ideal guest room, study
or extra sitting room.
The separate laundry is well-sited
near the double garage for dumping
dirty sports or work clothes on
entering the house. There is also
ample storage space with the hot
water cylinder cupboard conveniently
located in the hall, opposite the
bathroom and close to the laundry.
G J Gardner’s rolleston show home
is located at 1 eversham Drive in
Faringdon. It is open from Wednesday
through to sunday, 12 noon until
4 pm.

Now ThaT The
heaTiNg’s oN
At the first taste of winter’s chill, we start preparing for hibernation. Adding
warmth to your home, however, is not just about choosing the right heating,
but also the creation of a scrumptious winter haven that invites you to
hunker down with creature comforts.
A home might be warm and dry, but
as we transition from summer to winter
there is that lack of cosiness to our homes.
By following a few simple steps you can
enhance and create more warmth within
your home.
11
Roll out the Rugs
hardwood floors and tiles are brilliant
during the summer months, but come
winter, your feet are likely to feel a little
different. using large rugs in the main
areas of your home will help to insulate
a room and keep your feet warm. The
textured look of a rug will also add a feel
of cosiness to a room.
Add textuRe
Just as you do with winter fashion,
creating warmth in your interiors is all
about adding texture.
In your bedroom, swap your summer
duvet for a thick, plush winter one, then
finish the look with layers of throws and
cushions.
Invest in good-quality throws. Choose
a few that match the décor in your home,
and then literally throw them over
couches and beds. The more they look
like you just dropped them on the couch
or bed, the better they look – hence the
name ‘throw’! There is a great range of
cosy faux-fur throws on the market this
winter, too.
If you don’t already have one, get a
footstool. If you have one, recover it in
durable thick fabric – we love a good
tartan print.
let the lIght In
When sunlight passes through the glass of
your window it bounces off your walls and
furniture, and gradually turns into heat.
This heat will make a big difference to the
temperature of your home. to make the
most of it, open your blinds or curtains in
the morning, and close them back up at
night.
lighting is important to set the scene.
A few lamps dotted around living spaces
will provide the relaxed, low-level lighting
ideal for such areas. Add sparkle at nighttime
with fairy lights, and some flickering
candles for an intimate feel.

Incorporating show homes in
your planning process
There are many things to think about when you’re
considering building a new home.
Browsing show homes is a fantastic
way to get you thinking about practicalities,
needs, aesthetics and your wish list! here
are a few consideration’s to help spark your
planning process.
• what is your exterior style? what kind of
homes do you like? Look around and take a
mental note of what you are drawn to most.
• what kind of exterior materials do you
like? once you’ve worked out the look you
like, research what materials are available
and find out about durability.
• how will you use your house? it’s important
to most people to have a good indoor/
outdoor flow and attractive, sheltered
outdoor living. imagine your home in
various seasons.
• Landscaping is important. Look around
and consider what you like and don’t like.
Are you a structured formal garden type or
do you like a contemporary native style?
• sustainability and future-proofing aren’t
just buzzwords anymore. it’s very important
for your new home to be environmentally
friendly. research insulation requirements,
solar hot water heating, ventilation options
and new technology to ensure your home
will be affordable to run.
• interior décor is really exciting. This is
where show homes can really help you get
to know current trends, colours, beautiful
furnishings and furniture. Collect home
magazines and figure out what you’d love
to emulate.
• Also, pause to give thought to architectural
components inside. Do you remember a
raised ceiling? what kind of finishing do
top homes use and which styles are you
drawn to?
• heating is also a consideration. have a look
at what show homes are offering.
• Kitchens form the heart of the house. show
homes give you insight into the latest styles,
materials and storage facilities available.
• Bathrooms are another big component.
They need to be as luxurious as you can
make them, so start dreaming.
Kitchens form the heart
of the house. show
homes give you insight
into the latest styles,
materials and storage
facilities available.
Proud to have been building
homes for Cantabrians
for more 25 years.

A FREE
TRIP TO FIJI
with every Onyx Home!
A PERFECT FIT!
A purpose-designed plan to suit your
lifestyle - for LESS than a standard plan!
The management team of Onyx Homes are quite simply some of the best and most experienced people in the industry. It’s through this
experience that Onyx Homes wants to bring to their customers a better standard of home that is often less than the standard-plan-built homes
of their competitors. Onyx believe that everyone is unique, so why settle for a standard-plan-home when you can have a purpose-designed
plan to suit exactly your lifestyle and for less than a standard plan? A perfect fit!
This is testament to our customers who have been amazed at the savings with Onyx, but also hadn’t realised their budget would allow for a
such quality spec and design.
NEW SHOW HOME OPEN
HOURS : Wednesday – Sunday, 11am to 4pm at 1 Oak Drive, Flemington Lincoln.
This show home uses products never seen before with massive points of difference.
