District’s growth soars
• By Tom Doudney
IT WAS a case of right place,
right time for Phillippa Boa who
opened her deli The Lincoln
Pantry on Gerald St in May.
The Tai Tapu woman is one
of many business owners who
have grabbed the opportunity
presented by Selwyn’s soaring
growth to set up a business in
the district.
Ms Boa had been planning to
start the business for a while and
she said friends and fellow Lincoln
business owners had helped
convince her to take the plunge.
“I had been looking for a
business opportunity in the area
because I think it’s a lovely community,
you have got residential
growth – I think it was 25 per
cent last year,” she said.
“Then you have got the corporate
market around you with
Plant & Food and the university,
so it seemed like a good hub for a
shop like ours.”
Ms Boa said business was going
well so far.
The district has recorded
another year of strong growth
with the value of non-residential
building consents increasing
by 40 per cent in the 12 months
to June. This week the Selwyn
Times takes an in depth look at
the Selwyn’s booming economy
– see pages 4 and 5.

WITH FOUR days until
the polls close, more than a
quarter of Selwyn’s eligible
voters have already made
their choice for mayor and
district councillors.
Voting closes on Saturday
at noon and people who
are posting in their voting
papers need to do so
tomorrow at the latest.
By 4.20pm on Friday, 25.57
per cent of those eligible
to vote in Selwyn had. The
figure is slightly ahead of the
24.02 per cent who had voted
at this stage in 2013, and
also above the figures for the
same stage in 2010 and 2007
elections.
By ward, Malvern (33.85
per cent) and Ellesmere
(31.75 per cent) have had
a significantly higher
proportion of voting papers
returned to date than the
Springs (22.55 per cent) and
Selwyn Central (21.95 per
cent) wards.
Selwyn is part of Local
Government New Zealand’s
Vote2016 campaign, which
aims to lift voter turnout in
local elections to more than
50 per cent for the first time
since the 1980s.
Turn out will need to
lift significantly for that to
happen, with the best result
in the last three elections
being in 2007 when 44.78 per
cent of those eligible to vote
did so.
Last year, 43.41 per cent
voted.
After tomorrow, voters
will need to return their
voting papers to one of
the ballot boxes located
at Darfield, Lincoln and
Leeston Library and Service
Centres, and at the district
council headquarters in
Rolleston.
Anyone who is eligible to
vote but has not received
their voting papers can still
cast a special vote at any of
these locations.

BY LATE afternoon, early
evening on Saturday, we are
likely to know which one of the
five mayoral candidates will be
leading the district for the next
three years.
Sarah Walters, Pat McEvedy,
Sam Broughton, Bill Woods and
Debra Hasson all appear to have
campaigned well.
Reporter Tom Doudney
reveals on page 1 that there has
not yet been a tsunami of postal
votes received, and if that continues
through this week then
the outcome is likely to be super
close.
The same can be said of the
battle for district councillor

DARFIELD RESIDENTS may
not need to travel to Christchurch
to watch the Crusaders square
off against southern rivals the
Highlanders next year.
An agreement for Darfield to host
a pre-season match is understood
to be almost finalised. And if the
fixture is a success, it could be held
in the town every two years.
The match would be for the Farmlands
Cup which was first contested
in Southland farmer Fred Booth’s
paddock as part of the Southern
Field Days event at Waimumu in
February. That match ended in a
19-19 draw.
It is anticipated the match will
alternate each year between Crusaders
and Highlanders country, with
the Crusaders to host their matches
in Darfield and the Highlanders to
continue hosting theirs in conjunction
with Southern Field Days.
The Darfield Township Committee
has agreed in principle to a new
permanent fence being built around
the Darfield Domain, provided by
the rugby club, which would be necessary
for the match to go ahead.
The Darfield Rugby Football
Club and the Crusaders confirmed

Broughton, during which it was
agreed that district council staff
would look into the matter as
part of the 2017/2018 Annual
Plan process.
Cr Broughton said there were
other towns which might also
argue the need for upgraded
facilities so more analysis was
needed before it could be determined
whether the idea stacked
up.
“Facilities like these are quite
expensive,” he said.
“I think a needs assessment is
definitely a good first step.”

In Brief
GIRL KICKED BY COW
A two-year-old girl was flown
to Christchurch Hospital on
Saturday, about 4pm, after being
kicked by a cow at a Springston
property. A Westpac rescue
helicopter spokesperson said the
girl’s injuries were “moderate to
serious.”
DRIVER FELL ASLEEP
A Christchurch driver ended
upside down in a ditch on
Christchurch Akaroa Rd, near
Motukarara, after dozing off at
the wheel on Saturday at about
5pm. The man, in his early 20s,
had been in Akaroa for the day
and was on his way home. He
was uninjured. Sergeant Alex
Pickover said no charges would be
laid but the incident was a timely
reminder of the need for people to
pull over when tired.
KIRWEE MOBILE RECEPTION
Vodafone plans to improve
coverage in the Kirwee area with
a temporary cell on wheels site
to be installed near the Kirwee
tavern. The company plans to
install a permanent cell tower in

on residents’ support and consent
from the district council and the

No stopping economic growth
Selwyn has continued to
ride an economic high
tide this year, the latest
economic data shows.
Tom Doudney reports
on the growth which just
won’t stop
SELWYN’S ECONOMY has hit
new highs thanks largely to a
commercial building boom and
the district’s strong retail sector.
Rolleston resident Sinead
McGrath said the growth
had been a big factor in deciding
to start up her hair and beauty
salon Copperhead Road, which
opened about seven weeks
ago.
“I have hair dressed in Rolleston
for a few years and built up
quite a big clientele but just with
all the new people coming into
the area and the fact that there
was only three or four other hair
salons I thought there was a lot
of potential to grow a business
out here,” she said.
“It’s going brilliantly.”
Malvern Butchery owner
Paddy McKay said business in
Darfield was booming and he
was noticing the increased trade
in his own shop.
IN DEMAND: An extension of the Lincoln New World was recently completed. Population
growth across Selwyn has driven both the expansion of existing shops and the building of new
ones.
PHOTO: ANDREW KING
“Darfield is going flat out,
things are going real good here,”
Mr McKay said.
Data compiled by economic
analysts Infometrics showed the
value of non-residential building
consents in Selwyn grew by 40
per cent for the year to June.
During this time, consents valued
at $152 million were lodged,
up from $109 million for the
previous 12 months.
District council building
manager Vanessa Beavon said
the figures reflected a number of
factors including the building of
new schools in Rolleston, consents
for new shops to be developed
in Rolleston, West Melton
and Darfield and the continuing
development of new businesses
at Izone.
Non-residential consent values
increased by 16 per cent in
Canterbury and by 15 per cent
nationally in the year to June.
Selwyn retail trade was up by
6.4 per cent, well up on national
retail activity figures of 2.8 per
cent.
Overall, Selwyn’s gross domestic
product grew by 3.8 per cent,
significantly above the Canterbury
average of 0.9 per cent, and
above the New Zealand figure of
2.7 per cent.
Selwyn’s unemployment
rate of 2 per cent was the fifth
lowest among New Zealand territorial
authorities. Canterbury’s
unemployment rate was 3.2 per
cent and New Zealand’s 5.2 per
cent.
The 2014/2015 year was an
exceptionally busy year for
Selwyn as Statistics New Zealand
estimated that the district’s
population grew by 6.5 per cent
in the year to June 2015 and
is now estimated to be about
55,000.
MOST PEOPLE would
probably recognise the growing
population along with farming
and rural industries as growth
drivers in Selwyn but not
everyone would see tourism as
part of the district’s success.
Yet Selwyn’s tourist numbers
have been on the rise, with
94,649 guest nights recorded
in the district (covering both
international and domestic
visitors) in the year to June, up
4.4 per cent from the previous
12 months.
District council chief
executive David Ward said a
focus on tourism promotions
had been part of its strategy
since 2011.
A shortage of venues in
Christchurch due to the
earthquakes had been a factor
in Selwyn’s business tourism
growth as people had ventured
further out of the city to hold
their events.
Mr Ward said an increase
in international flights
into Christchurch Airport,
particularly from China,
and Queenstown had also
had an impact on visitor
numbers across the whole of
Canterbury.

THE TWIN pillars of new
business investment and
agriculture mean Selwyn has
every reason to be confident
about its future growth, an
economic analyst says.
Infometrics senior
economist Benje Patterson
(right) said Selwyn’s
economy was “quite
interesting” compared
to many of its peers in
surrounding districts.
“Even though in some ways
it is a primary sector orientated
district in that it has a lot of
agricultural production, it is also
somewhere where we are seeing a
lot of investment and that
has come about because
of many people flocking
to residential areas that
are growing in Rolleston
and other satellite
communities,” he said.
Commercial
development in retail, logistical
facilities and industrial space
boded well for the future both
because much of the construction
was still yet to happen and this
development would enable
further economic activity.
“Those factors lead us to be
reasonably optimistic that Selwyn
is going to continue to perform
well – it may not grow at quite
the rate it has recently but even if
it was to grow at two or three per
cent that would still be very good
growth for a regional economy,”
Mr Patterson said.
The recovery in dairy
prices was also cause for
optimism.
“Dairy prices are not yet
at their historical averages
but they are up 25-30 per
cent in terms of the pay
out forecast compared with a year
earlier and that is going to see
farmers feeling more confident in
their spending patterns,” he said.
Federated Farmers North
Canterbury dairy
chairman Michael
Woodward (left) said
that, apart from some
general maintenance
which had been put off
during the downturn,
farmers were unlikely to
increase their spending much
until next season.
“There is potentially pressure
coming from banks to basically
step up repayments,” Mr
Woodward said.
“So we have got to have some
good $6 plus pay outs to get back
to where those farmers are really
happy again.”
WITH A new shopping centre
soon to open to cater for the
subdivisions which have sprung
up over the last 10 years West
Melton is a poster child for
Selwyn’s runaway growth.
While Rolleston and Lincoln
have grabbed much of the
spotlight, West Melton’s own
population growth over the last
10 years has been phenomenal.
Resident Bruce Russell, who is
deputy chairman of the Selwyn
Central Community Board, said
this was driving demand for new
facilities and businesses.
“In 2006 we had 40 houses
here – today we have got nearly
1000,” Mr Russell said.
“With the new shopping
centre going ahead West Melton
is going to be a little township on
its own.”
The shopping centre, which is
being built by James Lloyd Developments,
is expected to open
early next month.
It features a Four Square
supermarket and 12 other shops
including a restaurant and bar,
Unichem, medical centre, bakery,
real estate agent, hairdresser
and a beauty therapy salon.
James Lloyd Developments
director Tony Hickman said
there were only two shops which
COMING SOON: West Melton’s new shopping centre is
expected to open early next month.
did not have tenants arranged
yet and discussions were taking
place to fill those vacancies.
“The phone rings every day
from residents asking when it’s
going to open and what kind of
businesses are going to be there,”
he said.
“It’s what the area has needed
for a long time.”
Mr Russell is also steering
committee chairman for the
planned $6.6 million West Melton
Community and Recreation
Centre which will replace the
community’s ageing hall.
He said the new building
would be a big asset to the area.
“We are still hoping to go out
for tender probably about December
and then have the thing
built in hopefully September or
October 2017,” Mr Russell said.
“The Lincoln Event Centre is
attracting people from Christchurch,
conferences and all that
sort of thing, and we could do
the same thing here because
we are only 10 minutes from
Christchurch.”

Councillors hit out
at city counterparts
• By Tom Doudney
DISTRICT councillors have hit
out at their Christchurch counterparts
over the ban on freedom
camping in the city and Banks
Peninsula.
The comments came as a
report on freedom camping was
presented at Wednesday’s district
council meeting.
The report predicts increased
numbers of freedom campers in
Selwyn this summer due to the
ban, at a cost of about $30,000
to the district council in extra
cleaning, servicing and waste
removal.
District councillor Sam
Broughton said it was “quite
disappointing that Christchurch
has put its head in the sand and
decided that it doesn’t want to
have to deal with freedom camping
which has made it really
hard to come up with a regional
response to freedom campers.”
District councillor John
Morten said it was “typical of a
wishy-washy Christchurch City
Council and their inability to
make a decisive decision.”
District councillor Nigel
Barnett said if the city council
TRAVELLING LIGHT: More freedom campers are expected in
Selwyn this summer.
could “get their act together”
the impact on Selwyn would be
reduced.
Several other district councillors
expressed support for the
comments.
Christchurch mayor Lianne
Dalziel declined to respond
to the comments, when approached
by the Selwyn Times.
District councillors also suggested
that more could be done
to encourage freedom campers
to spend their money in ways
which would benefit the Selwyn.
District councillor Pat McEvedy
suggested that freedom
campers could have the opportunity
to make a donation to an
environmental protection and
enhancement fund to offset the
effects of freedom camping.
District councillor Malcolm
Lyall said he had concern for Selwyn’s
tourism hot spots but he
was also interested in what could
be done to connect the campers
with local businesses which
could benefit from their trade.
“Think of them as an opportunity,”
he said.

you concerned about the
prospect of more freedom
campers coming to your

Pig farm’s bid to renew
resource consent fails
• By Tom Doudney
A PIG farm near Burnham that
has frustrated its neighbours for
four years has had its application
to renew its resource consent
declined.
The 20ha farm, run by Chris
and Melanie Bates and their
son Henry since 2012, has until
October 19 to decide if it wants
to appeal the decision of an
independent hearing panel to the
Environment Court.
Neighbours were concerned
about dust and, to a lesser extent,
noise and odour from the farm.
Those who spoke to the Selwyn
Times said they were pleased
about the decision but wary over
the possibility of the Bates making
an appeal.
Neighbour Hamish Cottier
said if the panel’s decision was
upheld, he and his wife would
be able to get back to their
business of training polo horses
and taking riding lessons –
something which he said had not
been possible with the pig farm
next door.
“It’s a step in the right direction
and I would like to have my business
back,” he said.
“But the pigs have to go first.”
The farm, on the corner of
Thompsons Rd and Selwyn Rd,
has about 235 pigs not including
piglets.
The Bates had been granted a
two-year consent in May 2014
to allow them time to move the
operation to a larger site.
The Selwyn Times was unable
to reach the Bates for comment
but in their application to renew
the resource consent they stated
that they had been unable to find
a suitable alternative location in
spite of investigating about 60
potential sites.
Hearing commissioners
Graham Taylor and John Iseli
were satisfied that odour and
noise were not significant
issues. However, they were not
satisfied that dust issues could be
sufficiently mitigated.
“Our conclusion is that without
irrigation, the pig farm will be
unable to maintain ground cover
on a regular seasonal basis,” their
report stated.
“There is therefore a high
likelihood that dust nuisance
conditions will re-occur in less
than extreme events.”
Irrigation had been
investigated but discounted
by the Bates due to water
unavailability and cost.
Clever?
Compact?

However you like it - Our work spans all types of house building
When it comes to scope and style the homes you see here are just the tip of the roofline. With
decades in the business the team at Artisian Homes have worked in all areas of residential
construction. There are obvious differences between building a two-bedroom home compared
to a six bedroom one. Irrespective, our overall approach remains the same.
While we have a sound reputation for carefully crafted home building we also are renowned
for getting the right result no matter what the challenge. Building with difficult access,
looming timelines or tight budgets is just a fact of life for us.
Our house looks great. I have been
very impressed with the Artisan team.
Good build quality, very good progress
& clear open communication.
Thanks heaps! “

Artisan Homes. Even though it is a large home we had no
delays with supply or tradesmen. We were concerned when
choosing a builder as we are in the Christchurch rebuild
zone. Rob and his team were honest, very prompt sorting
out any queries and helped with choices throughout the
entire build. We are very pleased with our home. The
quality and service was excellent. If we ever build again, it
will be with Artisan Homes.

SELWYN TIMES
In the lead up to local body elections on Saturday, the Selwyn Times has been regularly
putting a question to each of the five Selwyn mayoral candidates. The final question
relates to the 6km of new footpaths constructed by the district council during the current
financial year. The footpaths cost $500,000 in total, with $400,000 of that being met from
investment income and therefore no direct cost to the ratepayer. Lincoln and Prebbleton
are not among the 12 Selwyn communities which will benefit from this. If the district
council is using funds from investments, why shouldn’t some funds be allocated to these
two towns?
District
councillor Sam
Broughton:
The
contribution to
the general rate
from households
across the district
is an important income source
for our community and is used
to pay for public good items
including footpaths where a
targeted rate is not appropriate or
difficult to apportion.
Income from investments is
treated in the same way. The
council makes general rate
decisions based on need and
looks to be fair across the district.
There are footpaths in each of the
wards to be completed as part of
the programme.
The footpath programme is
to bring our footpaths up to the
expectations of our community.
The towns with the most work
have been lagging behind our
expected standard and it will be
good to see them upgraded over
the next couple of years.
District
councillor
Debra Hasson:
Investment
revenue is used to
support the general
rate and applied
across Selwyn in
‘swings and roundabouts’.
Due to the timing of this money,
post annual plan deliberations
council decided to increase the
footpath budget from $200,000
to $500,000 over 12-18 months,
bringing forward planned
expenditure. A revised list was
prepared by staff reflecting both
submissions and priorities. While
Lincoln and Prebbleton footpaths
were not included, on a ward basis,
footpaths in Tai Tapu were.
Once this $500,000 has been
spent, council plans to consult
with township committees on
council’s Walking and Cycling
Strategy so further footpaths can
be added.
Please remember, to construct
Lincoln’s Town Centre Plan, general
rate funding will apply and
some years ago Prebbleton had its
main street upgraded.
District
councillor Pat
McEvedy:
The footpaths
listed in the
2016/17 footpath
extension programme
are those
that have been requested by various
township committees over a
period of years.
The $400,000 from a Sicon
dividend has made it possible
to reduce the nine year waiting
list. Most of these footpaths are
missing links in the older parts
of these townships. The reason
that there are none in Lincoln
and Prebbleton may mean that
the connections in these two
townships are much better than
most other townships. This
reflects the quality of the recent
developments in these towns that
has provided good linkages and
connections for walking.
It’s important that we respond
to what individual communities
want and request as all of our
townships are unique and have
different requirements.
Elections 16
Deputy mayor
Sarah Walters:
An assessment
was undertaken by
staff based on three
pedestrian benefit
factors to initially
determine priority
across the district and letters were
sent to community committees
asking for further feedback.
Priority was determined on:
those within townships (ie the
benefit to more pedestrians), those
alongside the busiest road
(ie improves safety of pedestrians),
those that filled in a missing link
(ie gaps between existing footpaths
to make routes more continuous).
Since the annual budget was
put together the council has also
adopted the Lincoln Town Centre
Plan which includes improved
pedestrian facilities and requires
significant investment but has
not yet been through the budget
process.
Bill Woods:
This question
is directed to the
other candidates
as I have had no
involvement in
the decision but I
am confident that
there would have been a list of
footpaths to be constructed and
an order of priority drawn up
with the towns of Lincoln and
Prebbleton not making the grade.
What I am also not aware of is
did the councillors question the
order or just accept the list presented
to them without question?
If past actions are anything to
go by the list would have been accepted
without any questioning.
I must emphasise this is only my
assessment as I have no information
to the contrary.

Coe’s final meeting
• By Tom Doudney
MAYOR KELVIN Coe has paid
tribute to a group of district
councillors who “play the ball and
not the man” in his last meeting
in charge.
Mr Coe will step down
following Saturday’s election after
nine years as mayor and 12 years
before that as a district councillor.
In his valedictory speech, he
said that throughout his time as
mayor councillors had shown the
ability to work together and keep
disagreements at the table from
becoming personal – something
which wasn’t always been true of
other councils.
“That’s a real strength of this
council,” he said.
He said the fact that most of the
incumbent district councillors
had been voted back in at the last
two elections showed they had
been doing a good job.
Other district councillors
thanked Mr Coe for encouraging
discussion, which allowed for
consensus decision making.
District councillor Nigel
Barnett, who is also retiring,
said he was proud of the way
the district council had gone
from lagging behind in dealing
with some issues relating to
the district’s runaway growth
JOB DONE: Mayor Kelvin Coe will step down after Saturday’s
election.
to getting on top of things
during his own nine years at the
table.
“When I look back at some
of the big decisions we took
on board, with the benefit of
hindsight, there really wasn’t any
other decision that could have
been made,” Cr Barnett said.
He acknowledged his
reputation as a joker.
“It would be a bit of a shame if I
couldn’t have some fun along the
way.”
Jeff Bland
• By Tom Doudney
MEMBERS OF the Selwyn
Central Community Board
have lamented its loss as it
enters its final days.
The board held its final
meeting last month and will be
officially disestablished following
Saturday’s local government
elections.
The district council decided
to disestablish the board after
consultation last year and the
Local Government Commission
supported the decision.
District councillors Jeff
Bland, who took over from
Diane Chesmar as chairman
at the start of the year due to
tensions between fellow board
members, said the district
council had been too quick to
Bruce Russell
Last days for
community board
get rid of the board.
He would rather have seen
Selwyn Central residents given
the chance to vote on whether
to retain the board as part of
local body elections.
“I’m a great believer in democracy
and I am sad myself
that the board has been dissolved,
I would have liked to
see it continue,” Cr Bland said.
Deputy chairman Bruce
Russell said that in turning
away from community boards
Selwyn was out of step with
other parts of the country.
“In Christchurch the mayor
and councillors there are saying
‘we must give more power
to our community boards
because they are the heart of
the community’.”

Health and safety concerns
at Selwyn Sawmills justified
WorkSafe
New Zealand
deputy general
manager
assessments Jo
Pugh responds
to a column
by Selwyn
Sawmills
co-owner AJ Halliday about
“restrictive and expensive
edicts from WorkSafe New
Zealand” forcing businesses
to close their doors
Health and safety is an easy
target when financial difficulties
happen.
The Health and Safety at Work
Act asks businesses to be sensible
in managing their hazards.
It doesn’t mean that every
hazard, no matter how small,
has to be eliminated at any cost.
That’s not reasonable, let alone
possible.
We know it’s possible to meet
health and safety obligations as
demonstrated by the five out six
sawmills in the region that we
have assessed. They are managing
their hazards and protecting their
workers and customers from
serious harm.
However, what was witnessed
on-site by WorkSafe inspectors at
Selwyn Sawmills left us no choice
but to seek improvements. The
site had unguarded belt drives,
open chain and sprockets, and
required workers to step over one
machine to get to the next, which
are all examples of hazards with
the potential to threaten life and
limb.
WorkSafe is not insensitive to
businesses circumstances and,
in the case of Selwyn Sawmills,
we provided the business extra
time to meet the improvement
notice. Upon news that the
directors had taken the decision
to cease trading, we helped
them work through short term
safety improvements – including
administrative controls like
earmuffs – which would allow
them to continue trading while
the business was wound up.
Health and safety is a part of
business – not an addition to be
tacked on when times are good.
Keeping workers and customers
well away from dangerous
machinery while it is in operation
is the best way to prevent
incidents. Adequate machine
guarding is not optional – it’s a
must.
A lack of money does not
reduce responsibilities under the
Health and Safety at Work Act. In
fact, when times are tight it can
be tempting for businesses to cut
corners, leaving workers exposed
to serious and potentially deadly
hazards.
In New Zealand, one person
a week is killed in workplace
accidents, and over 20,000 suffer
serious injury and 600 to 900 die
an early death from work-related
ill-health each year.
Our workplace death and injury
toll is far worse than Australia’s or
the United Kingdom’s. That is not
a record to be proud of.
Additionally, taxpayers are
forking out an estimated $3.5
billion a year on workplace
deaths, injuries and ill-health.
However, the most significant
cost is that paid by the loved ones
who pick up the pieces following
a workplace accident.
Residents respond to
business owner Lynn
Townsend’s recent
column in the Selwyn
Times which criticised
the planned removal of
car parks on Gerald St in
favour of a cycleway
Alan Wise, of Lincoln –
Does Lynn Townsend
honestly believe that people
go to the Lincoln supermarket
because it has a large car park
and how is this an argument for
the district council to provide
on-street parking? Does a
business such as Coffee Culture
think their coffee is so ordinary
that their customers will go
elsewhere if they can’t park on
Gerald St?
I thought business owners
were more astute and realised
that more business comes from
people walking past the door
than driving past.
I fully support the district
council’s plans for Gerald St.
SELWYN TIMES
Change can’t come soon
enough and I couldn’t agree
more with Don Babe’s views.
Pat Palmer, of Prebbleton
– Lynn Townsend should be
asking the district council ‘how
many cyclists will use the proposed
cycleway along Gerald
St and how much will it cost?’
And the council should have
considered this, and already
told us.
Lincoln resident Vicky
Bowden writes on the
state of the earthquakedamaged
St John’s
Anglican Church in
Hororata
I don’t live in Hororata but
do visit relatives there and so
have driven past the church at
different times.
When I was at a wedding in
Hororata three years ago we
went over to visit the grave of
the bride’s mother.

WINNERS ARE GRINNERS: Lincoln University student Zoe Harty, who won the Miss
Famous Grouse contest. She will spend the $2000 prize money on clothes and an
overseas trip.
Some of us commented on
the fact that even though there
is obviously not any repair
work happening it would be
good if they were continuing
to do some basic maintenance
of the church to keep it in a
good state.
Earlier this year I was there
again for an internment and
noticed that there are weeds
in the gutters and other things
that will not be helping with
the overall condition of the
church and one would think
could be looked after – unless
it is a safety issue.
Lincoln resident Todd
Nicholls writes about the
Selwyn Times’ coverage
of the Miss Famous
Grouse competition on its
front page last week
I am a long-term Lincoln
resident. I have been a
journalist and a lawyer for
over 20 years. I am also the
father of two young daughters.
I was horrified by your front
page story Beauty and Brains
(September 27, 2016).
For just a moment I thought
that we had gone back to the
dark ages. Bad enough that the
Lincoln Hotel had to advertise
this sexist rubbish (posing as
entertainment) for weeks beforehand
outside its premise.
For your otherwise excellent
newspaper to highlight this
backward event on its front
page is an insult to not only
the progress that we have
made as a community but the
role of women in our society.
Your readers, and my two
young daughters, deserved
so much better.
Rolleston resident
Jonathan Scott writes
about the Pest Control
Research factory in
Rolleston planning to
manufacture 1080 bait
Myself and other Rolleston
residents wish to express our
concerns that PCR keep their
external roller door open
during operation.
Open Day Announcement
St John The Evangelist Catholic Church Leeston, is proud to announce its
long awaited reopening following the completion of phase one, earthquake
strengthening works.
Although the district
council have advised that PCR
cannot manufacture 1080
bait yet, we believe PCR are
demonstrating their lack of
concern for the community by
engaging in poor manufacturing
practices, which, if occurring
during active poison bait
manufacture, would put the
community at risk and be in
breach of their consent.
As the spokesman for the
1080 Free Rolleston Facebook
page, we would like to see PCR
take these concerns into consideration,
rather than simply
responding with ‘we are not
making bait yet.’
I suggest PCR is leaving
the external door up in
order to counteract the
effect of solar heating or
manufacturing temperatures
occurring during the day.
We want to understand if
this is PCR’s only method of
cooling their building during
pre-feed manufacture, how
is PCR prepared to react if
they proceed to active bait
manufacturing.
Some residents are also concerned
that leaving the factory
door open is a security risk
that PCR should address in
order to safeguard their stock
of poison.
If PCR were willing to make
a gesture to allay the community’s
concerns, I would be
prepared to meet with PCR
management to discuss the
matter further.

Leeston man makes Solomons safer
NEW LOCATION ADVERT.pdf 1 1/05/2014 11:51:35 a.m.
A LEESTON man is helping
make communities in the
Solomon Islands safe by clearing
explosive remnants of World
War 2.
Able Diver Craig Smith has
been taking part in Operation
Render Safe, a multinational
operation led by the Australian
Defence Force to dispose safely
of unexploded World War 2
munitions.
“It’s been fantastic to help
them out and they are also our
main source of information,”
ADR Smith, from the Royal
New Zealand Navy diving and
mine countermeasures ship
HMNZS Manawanui, said.
“The Solomon Islanders have
been living in an area scattered
with tonnes of explosive
ordnance for the past seven
decades,” he said.
“Removing these hazards will
give them a safe environment to
live in and the kids will be able
to jump in the water without being
afraid of injuring or killing
themselves.”
In the first week of the Render
Safe operation, the combined
multinational teams recovered
1389 items, weighing 3.7 tonnes,
of unexploded ordnance.
The team of divers from
Manawanui and explosive ordnance
disposal experts from the
Canadian Defence Force have
recovered and detonated safely
about 60 unexploded munitions,
including a 250-pound bomb,
during the operation.
ADR Smith joined the navy
four years ago, after graduating
from St Thomas of Canterbury
College.
“I wasn’t sure if I should follow
my brothers’ footsteps and
go to university or get ‘out of the
box’ to see the world and have
an interesting lifestyle,” he
said.
“I know that sounds like a
cliché but since joining the navy
I’ve had many opportunities to
see the world, including South-
East Asia.”
He said his role as a diver
aboard Manawanui included
maintaining the dive equipment,
the decompression chamber and
the diving bell.

Plans to rebuild historic cottage
• By Tom Doudney
A FORMER Rolleston cottage,
which may have been built as
early as 147 years ago, could be
rebuilt following the excavation
of the site where it once stood.
The Dynes Rd site was excavated
18 months ago, with an old
land deed revealing that it was
almost as old as the town itself.
Rolleston will celebrate its 150th
anniversary in 11 days time.
Records showed that the
crown sold the land to K. Kelly
in 1869. A Witter Archaeology
report concluded that, while
that did not necessarily date the
building, “such a structure might
be expected to follow soon after.”
The site’s owner, former district
councillor Annette Foster,
said she and her family were
in the process of having plans
drawn up to rebuild the cottage
based on a photograph sourced
from the Canterbury Museum.
The photograph, taken in 1928,
had appeared in a 2007 book
by George Singleton about the
former Ellesmere county.
Mrs Foster and her late husband,
David, had deliberately retained
ownership of the cottage
site on Dynes Rd when they sold
the surrounding 121ha for the
Faringdon subdivision, Foster
Park and Rolleston College.
“We thought it was really important
for Rolleston to actually
have something which related
to its history, because Rolleston

wasn’t really a place where people
settled, it was a transient area
and a lot of the land was owned
by people in Leeston, Springston
and Lincoln and was used as
their dry land run-off,” she said.

“I think you would struggle to
find anything in Rolleston that is
older than this site.”
Excavations unearthed artefacts
dating to the 1880s, including
Rhine pattern china, glass,
wire, metal items and the remnants
of household furniture.
Mrs Foster said her intention
was to hold occasional open days
once the cottage was restored so
people could view it.
The cottage had been originally
built as a sod cottage, but
then was built on to with cob,
which was unusual.
It was thought to have
belonged to the Kelly family
who owned the property at the
time.
Before his death more than a
year ago, Mr Foster, whose family
had owned the property for
75 years, had been able to recall
as a child seeing a mound of sod
with remnants of a chimney
where the house stood.
Although the excavations
were carried out 18 months ago,
the report into the site was only
completed about three months
ago.

STEADY HANDS: Volunteers helping in the have-a-go arena. (Right) Justine Morrison refereeing the tug of war.
Volunteers wanted for Hororata Highland Games
CLAN HORORATA: Volunteers enjoying lunch after packing up
following last year’s Hororata Highland Games.
THE CALL has gone out – it is
time to assemble Clan Hororata.
The Hororata Highland Games
would not be possible without the
support of its many volunteers,
and this ‘clan’ will be vital to
ensuring the success of the event
on November 5.
The volunteers come from
within Selwyn, wider Canterbury,
as far north as Auckland
and south to Dunedin; all to be
part of Clan Hororata.
Not only are 180 volunteers
needed on event day, it takes a big
team to transform the Hororata
Domain for the games and then
to pack up again on Sunday.
Christchurch resident Paul Kofoed
has volunteered at the games
since its inception.
“Although I have never lived in
Hororata or the Selwyn District
I consider myself a local at the
Hororata Highland Games. The
community spirit is so overwhelming
I get caught up in it
even more each year,” Mr Kofoed
said.
“I attend many major events
and I can honestly say the
Hororata Highland Games is one
of the best, from the chairman
of the trust to the hundreds of
volunteers; they are all passionate
and proud of what they achieve.”
As a member of the clan, all
volunteers receive an adult pass
to the event plus an invite to the
Prime Smoke Clan Hororata
barbecue held afterwards.
Volunteers receive lunch each
day with plenty of homemade
baking to fill the gaps and this
year will get a free Clan Hororata
T- shirt, courtesy of the district
council.
The volunteers also get to vote
on how a $4000 community fund
is allocated to four nominated
community groups. The groups
who have been nominated this
year are the Hororata Parish,
Hororata Golf Club, Hororata
Scouts and Windwhistle School/
Playgroup.
•Anyone interested in
becoming part of Clan
Hororata can email games@

•Discounted early bird
tickets to the games are

Closer connections with Indonesia
FRIENDSHIP: Mayor Kelvin Coe presents a picture of a kea to
the Bupati (mayor) of North Toraja. ​
A TRIP by Selwyn residents to
our sister city of North Toraja
has opened up connections
to build a closer relationship
between New Zealand and
Indonesia.
Nine participants, including
Selwyn Mayor Kelvin
Coe, farmers, and Sister City
Committee chair Allison Rosanowski
visited the North Toraja
Regency for a week in August
2016. Trip participants paid for
their own travel and accommodation.
The trip was the first sister
city exchange between the
two areas since a Sister City
agreement was signed between
North Toraja and Selwyn in
2014.
Selwyn is the only New Zealand
district to have a sister city
in Indonesia.
This agreement added to a
relationship which had been
developing for over a decade
between a group of Canterbury
farmers, and coffee growers in
North Toraja Regency.

CultureFest brings
the world to Selwyn
Selwyn’s first ever CultureFest will feature music, dancing, performances, food and crafts from 20
different cultures.
CultureFest is a free event which showcases the district’s cultures with free performances, fun
activities, craft and food stalls, along with activities for kids like a mega slide, SNAG inflatable golf,
bouncy castles and pedalmania.
CultureFest will build on the successful Lincoln Multi-Cultural Festival. CultureFest will be held
every year with the venue moving between Rolleston and Lincoln in alternating years. Many local
groups have joined CultureFest to share their culture with our community.
The event is part of the Rolleston 150th anniversary celebrations which feature a free show on
Saturday 15 October from 10am-4pm, on the corner of Jones and Hoskyns Roads, with displays
including traction engines, vintage cars, motorbikes, tractors, military displays, fire engines and
shearing. Other events planned during Rolleston’s 150th celebrations include an opening evening,
kids movie, dine and dance and street parade.
CultureFest’s activity programme includes performances from local Indian, Chinese, Polish
(pictured), Russian, Italian and Greek communities, as well as a Scottish flash mob. There will be a
range of fun activities for everyone to take part in and learn more about different cultures including
Turkish ceramics, Oriental ink painting and Bhangra (Indian dancing).
Cuisines on the menu at CultureFest include Indian, Iranian, Jordanian, German, Malaysian,
Polish, Russian, Tibetan, Singaporean, South African and England (high tea and scones).
CultureFest takes place on Saturday 15 October from 10am-4pm in Rolleston (on the corner of
Jones and Hoskyns Roads). It is presented by the Council with support from the Christchurch
Multicultural Council, Canterbury Migrants Centre, The Rotary Club of Lincoln, Rolleston
Newcomers Network and Smokefree Aotearoa NZ 2025.
Darfield garden waste day
On Saturday 29 October between 10am and 4pm, Selwyn residents
will have the opportunity to dispose of green garden waste at
Hawkins Pit. The pit is located off Cullens Road just east of Bangor
Road, about five kilometres from Darfield.
This is a great chance to get rid of garden prunings, tree trimmings
or weeds over springtime. It costs $5 per car, $10 per ute or single
axle trailer and $15 per twin axle trailer to dispose of garden waste
on the day. General rubbish, soil, flax, cabbage tree leaves, trees
or branches over 10cm in diameter can’t be disposed of through
this service. Payment is by cash only (no EFTPOS is available).
Proceeds from the event will be donated to the Malvern Lions Club.
A greenwaste disposal day is also planned for Ellesmere on
19 November.
Mayor says farewell
Mayor Kelvin Coe retires next week after 21 years on the Council and
nine years as Mayor. We spoke to him about his time with Council.
How has Selwyn changed since you joined the Council in 1995?
Selwyn’s population was around 25,000 and it has now more than
doubled and is about 54,000. We have changed from a largely rural
district to having significant towns as well as rural communities. We
now have a lot more infrastructure like sewerage and community
facilities like libraries, new community centres and the Aquatic Centre.
What have you enjoyed during your time on Council?
The opportunity to meet great people. There are a large number of
volunteers who run halls, sports, and community groups who make
a huge contribution to Selwyn. I really appreciate all the assistance I
have had from the community, Councillors and staff in my role and I
would like to thank them all for their support.
What do you consider have been the Council’s biggest
achievements while you have been Mayor?
Our achievements have been made by the whole of Council,
Council staff, other Councillors all working together with the
community. Dealing with September 2010 earthquake was both a
major challenge and a significant achievement. I think we coped
well as our civil defence operations centre was running early the
next morning and responded well and nearly all of the roading
damage was fixed promptly afterwards. The Council, and in
particular our planning team, have also responded well to the post –
earthquake challenges of growth. The Urban Development Strategy
was already in place identifying where new development could
occur and Izone development was under way so the groundwork
was in place, and staff had an enabling attitude to helping people
set up homes and businesses which allowed this to happen.
On the roads this week
Road repairs are planned on Leaches Road and Bealey Road (between Telegraph and Essendon
Roads), and work is planned on North Rakaia Road and Bridge Street. Traffic controls will be in place
on these roads. Footpath and kerbing repairs will take place in some areas within Izone. Maintenance
grading will take place in the Hororata, Leeston, Dunsandel, Norwood, Greendale and Coalgate areas.

Kim’s
Fashion Quarterly
from Kim Taylor —Viva La Moda
Proudly supporting local!!
At Viva La moda we are proud to support
local south island designers such as
ivyblu, Vargo and Vassalli all from
Christchurch and White Chalk from
Blenheim.
ivyblu design and manufacture their
beautiful classic pieces in Christchurch
and Vargo, Vassalli and White Chalk design
their garments here but manufacture
offshore.
With the increasing trend toward on
line shopping we are proud to offer a
lovely in store shopping experience
where the fashion can be seen,
touched and most importantly
tried on before purchase.
BLEND: Elaine Jiang works on her end of year collection, Soft Shell.

Fusion of east
and west
in designer’s
garments
• By Annabelle Dick
ARA INSTITUTE of
Canterbury student Elaine
Jiang is on a mission to
mix up the local fashion
scene with her eastern
meets western designs.
The 33-year-old was one
of 12 students to showcase
their collection at
Ballantynes Fashion Week
last Saturday.
Mrs Jiang is in her third
year of study towards a
Bachelor of Design degree
in fashion technology and
design.
“I like making things
by hand and because of
my character I’m not very
talkative, so I thought I’ll
go into an industry where I
don’t have to talk to many
people. That way I could
do things by myself instead
of relying on a team or
other people,” she said.
Her garments have a
strong Japanese-influence
and her pieces are mostly
targeted towards the
modern eastern woman.
“I’m Asian and we are
shorter so the silhouette
of my garments are
different because eastern
and western bodies curve
differently. So my clothes
better fitting for us . . . they
are quite loose, relaxed and
oversized.”
Originally from China,
Mrs Jiang moved to
New Zealand to be with
her Christchurch-based
husband and pursue a
career in fashion.
She moved to
Christchurch on February
19, 2011 – just three days
before the earthquake
that would change the city
forever.
“That was my first
experience of New
Zealand. I was really
jet-lagged due to the
time difference, but I was
planning on going to
the city to see the Christ
Church Cathedral the day
of the quake. I was lucky
because I was changing my
clothes just before leaving
and then the earthquake
happened . . . I didn’t get to
see any of Christchurch,”
Mrs Jiang said.
While her cultural
roots play a big part in
her aesthetic, her move
to Christchurch has
influenced the garments
she creates.
“When I came here,
I realised people are a
lot more relaxed than in
China. I want to keep my
style from my background,
but I’d like to fuse them
both and design items that
Kiwis would like,” she said.
Mrs Jiang is now busy
working on her end of year
collection Soft Shell, which
is based on a series of
photographs of some of the
poorest children in 1900s’
England.
The collection also
includes elements of
Japanese fashion she
noticed while overseas
earlier this year.
“I’ve put old-England
and new-Japanese together
for my collection,” she
said.
Mrs Jiang plans on
launching her own label
after graduating.
We have showcased the new
ivyblu striped off the shoulder
‘Brenda top’ ($169) with Vargo
‘Unfold Bloomer’ pants ($189)
This look is classic and
sophisticated and the
off the shoulder style
is more flattering than
you may imagine.
Also photographed is
the Vassalli Jean skirt
in Barcelona colourway
($119) with Vassalli white tee ($95) and
Vassalli washed denim jacket ($145). This is
a great casual weekend look that can
take you anywhere. Vassalli are famous
for their comfortable well fitting pants
but are increasingly expanding their
repertoire and offering much more
besides pants.
The stunning Vargo outfit photographed
shows the always striking black and white
combination. The off white jacket is a
perfect style to team up with dresses,
skirts or pants. ($245)
The striking Vargo “Execute midi” skirt is a stunning new
take on a classic pencil style and is very flattering with its
assymetric hemline. ($175). Under the jacket is the “leather
look ‘Revive Cami ‘ ($119)
Another pretty ivyblu ‘Annie’ dress ($179) is pictured here in
red & cream stripes with lovely lace detail sleeves. This gorgeous wee dress can
be dressed up or down and is a nice easy fit being shift shape. Dress it up with
sandals or down with sneakers and you are ready to go!
All of the garments pictured are available right now at Viva
La moda. Come and support local!

IT’S TIME FOR THE SPRING FLING
It is six years since the Ellesmere Spring Fling
was first held and this year promises to be just as
enjoyable as that of previous years.
The Ellesmere Spring Fling will again be held at
David Hobbs’ stunning, award winning Broadfield
Garden. This garden, which covers ten acres, is
of national significance and world class standard
making it the perfect setting for a garden party
with a difference.
“The Spring Fling is a great day out,” says Janice
Burnett, Chairperson of Community Care Lincoln.
“Visitors can enjoy savoured arts and craft stalls,
food and live music while wandering through
David’s landscaped grounds.”
Locals and those from further afield will have
an opportunity to purchase local fresh produce,
artisan foods, crafts and plants. Devonshire teas
and quality food will also be served for people to
partake while enjoying live easy listening music
with the gardens offering plenty of places to sit
and relax in beautiful surroundings.
Those keen on gardening ¬¬or interested in
growing their own vegetables, will have the
opportunity to watch demonstrations by The Seed
Warehouse while Andrea from Andreas Florist
will be showing people how to make eye catching
flower arrangements.
“Principal sponsors, Intelligro from Weedons are
also an ideal fit for the event,” says Janice.
Intelligro will be showcasing a selection of their
products and have some garden fertilisers for sale
while their team will be there to talk to people
about their gardens.
David Hobbs will also be providing garden tours,
giving guests an opportunity to learn more about
the species growing at Broadfield Gardens.
With so much on offer, those attending are sure to
have a fun day out while also gaining knowledge
and inspiration for their own gardens.
The Ellesmere Spring Fling is the sole fundraiser for
Lincoln & Districts Community Care Association
Inc. (LDCC). It is completely run by volunteers with
tremendous support from local businesses that
include Lincoln New World, Paper Plus stores at
Hornby and Merivale, Dave Burnett of Feedco,
the Selwyn District Council, Pub Charity Limited,
Digital Print Lincoln and The Warehouse Rolleston.
“We’re extremely grateful to have ongoing
community support especially the members of
Lincoln Rotary who assist with running the day, no
job is too big,” adds Janice.
Future Leaders from Lincoln University, local
exercise and walking group members, along
with Community Care’s staff, board members and
volunteers will also be helping on the day.
The Ellesmere Spring Fling country garden
experience will be held on Sunday, 9th October
between 11am and 4pm at Broadfield Garden,
250 Selwyn Road, Broadfield with ticket sales on
the day: adults $20, children free.

Christmas is just around the corner and if you’re thinking of ways
to tame traditions and reduce stress this year, 12 Crafty Days of
Christmas offers something fresh and fun for everyone.
Nin McKay is passionate about crafts and has developed a series
of themed workshops where participants will learn techniques to
make four craft projects. Other than bringing an apron and the odd
household item, you don’t need to worry about buying the materials
as these are all included in the course fee and are supplied on the day.
The next two workshops are coming up in October and November
2016 with locations in either Rolleston or Lincoln. This is a chance
to try your hand at making soy candles in a glass jar, paint dipped
wooden spoons, block printed tea towel and infused oils.
Adults of all ages can come along to craft and chat and the end result
not only means you have a finished product to give to a loved one at
Christmas, but a learned skill you can use again and again.
For fun, community and creativity book you spot
on the 12 Crafty Days of Christmas classes at

Gardening
SELWYN TIMES
Flowering powerhouses create colour
More flowers anyone? Rachel Vogan says to create time and space for colour in between vegetable planting
New double-flowered petunia
‘Surfinia Double Salmon’.
When you are not up to your armpits in the
vege patch, look to pots, baskets and tubs
to add a blast of colour to the garden. These
containers do for the garden what a scarf
or a necklace does to a lady’s outfit; they
punctuate and create focal points, soften hard
edges and brighten anything dull and grey.
This summer should be all about flowers,
and the earlier your summer pots and tubs are
planted the better. Hitting the shops now are new
hybrids of petunia and calibrachoa; flowering
powerhouses that take a bit of beating, with
most of them delivering blooms continuously
from late spring until the end of autumn. Look
for this brand new double-flowered petunia
‘Surfinia Double Salmon’ – for six months
of the year all it wants to do is flower.
Just coming into bloom, the Bacopa Epic
series will stay this way until May next year.
Crop Protection
Young seedlings and cuttings appreciate
some TLC when young. If you don’t
have room for a glasshouse, mock up
something at home (Kristina Jensen
shows us how on page 51). Maybe prop
up an old window on some bricks to
provide some shelter, or look at a mini
propagating house, which is ideal for
using indoors when sowing a few packets
of seeds. The larger portable outdoor cold
frames are brilliant, too. Just remember
that once seedlings are starting to form
their first sets of true leaves they need
plenty of air movement. Make sure you
can prop the door open or open a vent so
the young plants don’t fry on a hot day.
Vegetables
Plant potatoes and yams now. Both
need a well-dug soil in a warm
sunny spot, and remember to blend
in potato food prior to planting.
Sow rows of carrots, radish, parsnip
and beetroot; these are all best
sown directly into the ground. In
regards to lettuces, jam in as many
as you can, and not just in the
garden – they thrive in pots, tubs
and baskets. Seeds can be sown,
too, and will germinate readily
uncovered outside, so save your
precious room in the greenhouse
or on the windowsill for frostsensitive
seeds like tomato, chilli
and basil. To make sure you get the
biggest and juiciest asparagus spears
this season, sprinkle round some
vegetable fertiliser now and give beds
a drench with a liquid fertiliser.
Strawberries
How is your patch looking? If
you haven’t done so already, cut
off all those dead leaves from
any older plants and any rogue
side runners. Add a generous
handful of strawberry fertiliser
around the base of each plant.
For new patches, it’s vital you
prepare the soil first by digging
it over and adding strawberry
mix, this give the roots the best
possible chance to spring into
action. The cold nights trigger
the plants to produce flowers,
so the earlier you plant them
the better. No need to wrap
this crop in cotton wool.
In Flower: Bacopa
Epic Series
If you are after a plant that
forms a neat dome, with a soft
tumbling habit that will cascade
over the edge of a basket,
window box or tub, then look
for these wee gems. Bacopas are
making a comeback and this
new Epic series look marvellous.
With increased flowering ability
and tolerance to hot weather,
their colours appeal too, coming
in a range of deep pink, blue and
white. They look a picture in the
shops now – hunt a few down.
These perky wee numbers would
help punctuate any summer
wedding with a twinkle of colour.
gardening without guesswork
Question:
I planted a lot of daffodil bulbs in winter but was disappointed to see mainly
only leaves came up and no flower? I planted them with compost and just
assumed I would have a brilliant display of flowers?
Sorry to hear that. I can imagine you are
Answer: very disappointed! Unfortunately there
isn’t much we can do now to fix
that, but here are some tips to help prevent it happening
again. Daffodils make their flower buds straight after
they have finished flowering in the spring. To help
ensure they flower the following season, it is important
to follow these practices:
1) Remove the spent flowers so they don’t set any seed
2) Give the daffodils plenty of water
3) Top dress with Potash fertiliser
4) Do not remove the leaves or tie them in a knot to make the
garden look tidy. Leave them there as these will deliver nutrients to
the bulb to prepare it for the next spring
All the best with the next season! If you find your bulbs are planted
in an area that isn’t getting much sun, and doesn’t have good
drainage, you may need to rethink your chosen spot. If you need
any other information, please let us know!

There is a narcissus bulb fly that sometimes attacks
daffodils, which results in leaves and no flowers.
If you have noticed flies around the daffodils, treat
these with the same insect granules that you would
for grass grub. These will be available at your local
garden centre. Do the treatment after the leaves have
died down, and make sure that the hole where the
plant is, is covered so the insect cannot get to the
bulb in the ground

Plants to give your summer meal flavour
• By Tod Palenski
EVERY MONTH I write a
gardening article on a couple of
plants.
I typically try and come up
with some kind of unique angle
or theme to get things going. But
this month I’m just going to get to
the point. Chives, coriander and
rocket are really handy (and tasty)
plants to have in the garden.
Individually, they’re just such
great herbs to have accessible for
fresh cooking.
And what do you know? Your
local nurseries are likely to have
chives, coriander and rocket in
a mixed bundle. Mixed bundles
are fantastic because they provide
you with a smaller number of
seedlings per herb, which means
you should end up with about the
right amount of each, without any
taking over your garden.
Once you’ve got your rocket,
chives and coriander plants you
need to find somewhere to grow
them.
Chives are the easiest to grow.
The only thing you need to
remember – is where you planted
them.
Rocket is the next easiest to
grow. It likes sun. At this time of
the year it can be grown out in
full sun.
But when we hit summer
it pays to choose an area that
doesn’t get hit by the midday heat
to avoid sending your plants to
seed.
Dig through some compost into
the area you plan to plant. Or add
some good quality potting mix,
if you’re planning on planting in
large containers (around 25cm
or more deep). Then plant each
rocket seedling around 20cm
apart. Don’t forget to watch out
for snails around your rocket.
Lastly, coriander. We know that
this fragrant herb can be a little
tricky to grow. But it’s so worth
it if you get it right. My top tip
for growing coriander is to plant
when the weather is steady. This
will prevent it bolting from the
change in temperature that can
occur when we change seasons.
Plant it where you would plant
your rocket – full sun before
summer and in partial sun during
summer.
Just make sure it’s in freedraining,
aerated soil. Mound the
soil up and plant the seedling on
top – this will help ensure the soil
is free-draining.
Remember to water lightly all
your coriander, chive and rocket
TASTY: Chives (left) and rocket are
easy to grow, but remember where
you have planted them.
seedlings once planted. And don’t
let the soil dry out around your
coriander as this could cause it
to bolt. Water all the plants in the
morning to allow the water to dry
off during the day and prevent
disease.
Remove old or yellowed leaves
from your rocket and coriander
to help your plants continue to
flourish. And harvest the leaves
often to stop them going to seed
too early and encourage new
leaves to shoot up. And again, if
you want a continuous supply,
keep planting new seedlings every
few weeks.
Lastly, enjoy your herbs and
let me know if you have a good
recipe that combines all three.

Sweeten up your day with cake
Penelope’s Cakery
Deli has opened
in New Regent St.
Gabrielle Stuart
reports
A LEGO figure, a shark
breaching the water, a five
tier wedding cake, or even a
mathematical equation: When
it comes to cake orders, Penny
Ritchie has to be ready for
anything.
But her biggest challenge this
year has not been fondant or
buttercream.
She opened the doors of her
New Regent St shop, Penelope’s
Cakery Deli, last month.
As well as selling food and
her own custom-made cakes
there, it was designed as a place
where home decorators could
get support, advice and supplies,
which were difficult to find in
Canterbury, she said.
Although she had always
enjoyed creating cakes for
her children or friends, she
only began decorating cakes
commercially about four years
ago.
She owned a confectionery
SOMETHING SWEET: Penny Ritchie cuts into a tasty treat at
her new shop and cake supplies store.

store in Rangiora, and she
said it had been a challenge to
attract customers there after the
earthquakes.
Branching into cake making
was a way to turn the store into a
destination, she said.
But finding the supplies and
tools she needed had often been
challenging.
“It was just through not
wanting to say no to anything, I
forced myself to learn,” she said.
She hoped the Christchurch
shop would make it easier for
beginner cake decorators to give
it a go.
“We have moulds and cutters
for most things and, with so
much information and tutorials
on the internet, now it is very
easy for people to get into it, even
if they have never done it before,”
she said.
Although creating some cakes
could be a challenge, she said
delivering them was often
the most terrifying part of the
job.
“Some are quite elaborate
wedding cakes that have to be
absolutely perfect and the biggest
challenge is working out how to
transport them,” she said.
“I always take an emergency
repair kit, but I haven’t ever –
touch wood – needed to use it.”
TREAT: Penny Ritchie has
created a selection of exotic
cakes for customers.

MOVIE MAKERS: West Rolleston
Primary School pupils won the green

Education DigiAwards thanks to a
movie made about the school rules.
The theme of this year’s awards was ‘be
the change – thinking about the impact
you can have on your community
and ultimately the world.’ The West
Rolleston pupils put together an iMovie
with pupils creating a pretend news
report about how the schools rules
were making a difference around the
world. The rules are based on values
such as honesty, using only positive
words and sharing. Pictured are: Top

Exciting times ahead
for social workers
Fiona Maurice is focused on whanau. Midway through her final year work
placement at Child, Youth and Family, the Ara Bachelor of Social Work student
spoke of her hopes for the future for her family and for all Māori families.
Working for the Māori Women’s
Welfare League, as researcher and then as
kaiawhina, in 2011 to 2012, Fiona loved
community work but realised she need a
qualification to progress and be even more
effective. Coming to Ara was, she says, “the
best move I ever made”.
“I’ve learnt more
about myself and
what my strengths are
and I’ve realised that
determination and
perseverance are good
skills to have.
“I believe this
qualification will give
me more opportunities. I
want to register as a social
worker so that employers
will look at me more
seriously.
Working for Child, Youth and Family,
the social work agency of the Ministry of
Social Development, “didn’t faze” Fiona.
“I put my hand up to go there. In terms of
learning I can link a lot of my studies, such
as attachment theory and developmental
theory to the work, but I am also learning
a lot in the office about the systems and
processes.”
It’s an exciting time to be at CYF, she
says. “The agency is in a transformation
phase. They will have a new identity next
year and new processes. To be part of that
wave of social work is exciting.”
Her focus is clear. “It’s whanau that’s the
perspective I come with.”
Proud of her heritage, she
affiliates to Tuahiwi Marae near
Rangiora and Nga Ruahine
(South Taranaki tribe). It’s
an exciting time for New
Zealanders, she says, because
qualifications now involve
learning about the Treaty of
Waitangi. “More and more
we will see that knowledge
in action. Most of the social
work students want to learn
bicultural skills, but I already
had that.”
Receiving the Ara Eke Panuku
award last year and other scholarships have
been hugely helpful and Fiona says support
is there for other Māori students to enter
social work – a perspective the profession
badly needs to better respond to Māori
clients. “There are not enough of us! Only
three started in my first year group of 55!”
Fiona has made it a personal challenge
to share her story and inspire others to
consider social work.
Celebrate the success of local
businesses and people!

Southern Institute
of Technology
Ensuring a safe
work place
Monique VanRooyen is
a perfect example of how
the Southern Institute of
Technology (SIT) assists
full time workers to move
forward in their career.
Working in
administration at
SIT for nine years,
Monique jumped at the
opportunity to upskill
in her Administration
Management career with
the National Certificate
in Project Management
(Level 4) in June 2016.
The 18-week blended
delivery course not
only offered the content
she needed to take a
step forward, but its
flexible hours made both
studying and working
viable, she said.
“The biggest benefit
is being able to do the
course outside of work
hours and also the
fact that lectures are
fortnightly, which allows
time to complete each
assignment.”
Though only half way
through the Project
Management certificate,
she said it had already
increased her confidence
to talk in front of large
groups and had given her
Monique VanRooven
a better understanding of
business dealings.
“I enjoy the tutor’s
lecturing style, he has a lot of industry
based knowledge and experience in
this area which enables us to grasp the
concepts [of Project Management] a lot
easier.”
Monique said she would “definitely”
recommend the course to anyone
interested in a managing environment on
any level, especially those looking to excel
in their existing role.
LeARNINg fIRST aid is not only a
part of ensuring a safe work place, but also
an integral part of our engagement with
the wider community. We all learn the
necessary skills to ensure that in times of
emergency we are able to assist our work
colleagues, but are we able to take these
skills home, into the community or on to
the sports field?
Not all work places are the same and
the injury risk for each place can be wide
and variable. The office attended by
administrators does not carry the same
risk as those people working with heavy
machinery, or perhaps at some distance
from a regular ambulance service. It is
therefore essential that you pick the right
first aid course to suit all of your activities –
both professional and social.
Take, for example, an office worker who
does not have a high risk work environment
and whose concern might be to ensure
that they can deal with minor cuts and
superficial injuries, or the ability to perform
effective CPR. These skills can be achieved
on a course of eight hours duration and
would generally fit into low to medium
risk area. But take this same person on to
a sports field either as a spectator or player
when a higher level injury occurs. The eight
hour course covering unit standards 6402
and 6401 (or 26551 and 26552) does not
cover head neck and spinal injuries, eye
injuries, hypothermia and poisonings.
The majority of injuries occur outside of
the work place, in fact one in three injuries
occurs in the home, making it the most
common place for injuries to happen.
New Zealand children are twice as likely
to die through injury as children who live
in Australia. They mostly die as a result
of motor vehicles accidents or falls in the
home. fatalities from leisure and sport are
not far behind those in the workplace.
The wider 12 hour course teaches the
additional unit standard 6400 and provides
a wide knowledge base for medium to high
risk environments. This course covers many
of the skills required to deal with the most
common injuries, such as falls (which can
result in head, neck and spinal injuries) and
dealing with complex scenes such as motor
vehicle accidents.
If you are not sure on the course best
suited to your needs, ask your accredited
first aid training provider. They can explain
the course content and give you options
that will best suit your needs. Look beyond
the workplace and consider your family and
your location. Check that you have a good
quality first aid kit that is up-to-date with
replenished items, and that everyone knows
where it is located.

2016 Spring Show - Celebrating Rural Women
Saturday 15th October – Gates open 8am – Ellesmere Showgrounds, Leeston
President puts focus
on role of women
As the first woman president of the
Ellesmere A & P show committee, Paula
McIlraith wants to acknowledge the role of
woman in our community over the decades
– hence the theme of the 146th Ellesmere
Show, ‘Celebrating Rural Woman’.
“We have some amazing women in our
community who have made a difference in
peoples’ lives,” says Paula.
“There are those that have supported
youth through education, culture and
sport, and often acted unknowingly as role
models to these young people. The likes
of Cath and Rosalie Brown come to mind
and many others who have given their time
selflessly. There are also women before
their time such as Dr Helen Dougal who
practised in Leeston in the 1950s and later
Dr Molly Prendergast.
“Going back, there was the contribution
and effort of rural women during wartime.
My own mother, like many others, farmed
the land whilst others ran the services
allowing them, in a time of necessity, to
prove they were capable and adaptable.
“These characteristics are still part
of the modern-day rural woman who,
among traditional roles, may also be the
extra labour unit when things are busy
Paula McIlraith, president of the Ellesmere
A&P Show.
and for many they are an integral part of
a farming partnership which has had to
adapt to a changing farming environment,
especially with regards to accounting and
technology.”
Paula’s involvement with the show started
in the horse section and she believes it is
a great event that really showcases the
community.
She has her fingers crossed for a sunny
show day and hopes that everyone takes a
moment to reflect on some of those unsung
female heroines who often go unnoticed
and suggests, if we get the chance, to let
them know they are appreciated.

Plenty to enjoy
at Ellesmere’s
upcoming show
The Ellesmere A&P Showgrounds

flock to enjoy the Ellesmere Agricultural &

The tent will be filled with as many kinds
of animals as possible, with one of the main
draw cards the eels from Lake Ellesmere.
Other animals on display will include

Kids AgriSports competition. Teams of
three will go head-to-head in a number
of farm-related activities and team work.
Activities such as catching greasy pigs,

2016 Spring Show - Celebrating Rural Women
Saturday 15th October – Gates open 8am – Ellesmere Showgrounds, Leeston
Rural women to
be highlighted
Craft, machinery
and sideshows
in Feature Tent
The feature tent sponsored by Farmlands is definitely
keeping with the Ellesmere A & P Show’s theme
‘Celebrating Rural Women’.
This year the Wearable Arts parade
and competition will be staged with
parades starting at 11am and 1.45pm.
The brief to exhibitors was; “You
choose, whatever aspect of a rural
woman’s life through the decades that
you would like to portray”. This year
the Wearable Art Apron class has
been introduced, which promises to
be entertaining, and even humorous.
Also featuring in the tent will be
some entertaining speakers. These
include the New Zealand Women’s
Rowing Eight coxswain Francie
Turner, fresh from her trip to the
Rio Olympics, and the recognised
sculptor and artist Sharon Earl, both
of whom will provide some insights
into their interesting lives and their
rural origins in the Ellesmere area.
You are encouraged to visit the
feature tent, where you are promised
a trip down memory lane, which
will leave you wondering, “How on
earth did they do it all with so few
conveniences?”
The display will showcase what
being a rural woman meant through
the decades – all of who have certainly
been working women. Or it may be
to simply appreciate the change of
styles. Call in, reflect on times gone
by, enjoy the displays of clothing, art,
achievement, furniture, sculpture,
food, static displays of lifestyle and cultural
elements, sports, equestrian, wartime and
how it shaped their lives and defined their
time.
As well, Rural Women NZ and other
groups will present displays and interesting
insights into what they do for rural
women whether it be locally, regionally or
nationally.
Almost 100 craft sites will offer
an array of stalls selling goods
from handmade crafts, plants,
clothing, food stalls, outdoor
furniture and local organisations
fundraising.
The trade sites will comprise a
range of businesses from banks to
real estate to fertiliser and power
distribution companies.
On the machinery sites visitors
will see the latest in agricultural
equipment and technology, as
well as new car sales, irrigation
companies, mowers and fertiliser
spreading. It’s a chance to see the
latest equipment and the advances
in farming technology. There will
also be a large selection of vintage cars and
agricultural machinery.
In the produce sheds, sections being
competed in include cooking, homemade
beverages, handcrafts, photography and
flowers.
For the school children there will be
sections in technology, art, flowers and
cooking.
The poultry section will have over 40
different classes with a huge variety of
poultry – some you probably didn’t know
existed.
Sideshow attractions range from the
Ferris wheel, to thrill rides, merry-gorounds
and bouncy castles, plus there will
be an assortment of food stalls.
Your land. Your people. Your stories.

Saturday 15th October – Gates open 8am – Ellesmere Showgrounds, Leeston
Changes in the
equestrian section
This year there are some changes in ring layout and
new classes added, with organisers always looking to
improve the equestrian aspect of the show. The main
change will be the miniature/shetland and donkey
ring, which will now be in the south-west corner past
the vintage machinery area.
The first of two new classes will be held in the
main ring around 11am to showcase the ridden
thoroughbred. With a lot more focus on what happens
to horses after they finish their racing careers, this
is generating support within the industry itself. The
thoroughbred is bred to be an athelete, and provided
the horses retire without major injury they can be
retrained as excellent riding horses and many go on to
be competitive sport horses.
The other new class is Best Pair of Matched Ridden
horses, which aims to encourage some fun in what can
be a competitive discipline. In keeping with the theme
of the show, president Paula McIlraith will award a
special prize to the best lady rider of fences.
Unique to the Ellesmere show is the trotting and
pacing section, which is held in ring two at 1pm.
There are inhand and driven classes, which have been
well supported for many years by harness trainers
Paul Nairn and Justin Smith as an opportunity
to expose their potential young race horses to an
atmosphere similar to a major race meet. There is
also a section for ridden standardbreds held in the
main ring, proving there is life after racing for the
harness horse also.
Jumping events include a 1.15m pony classes
and a 1.30m-1.40m horse class starting at 12pm on
Saturday in the Hound & Steed Creative Agency
arena. There is good prize money thanks to FMG
and Southfuels.
The following day there will be three rings of
competition ranging from small heights through
to the young rider class, which goes up to 1.35m.
Public admittance is free on Sunday.

Woodchopping & more
will draw the crowds
Wood chopping is an extremely popular
event at the Ellesmere Show, with large
numbers of spectators coming to see some
30 male and female competitors in action.
The Canterbury Axemen’s Association
will be running the meeting, which
involves more than just turning up on
the day to chop logs. The logs have to be
sourced, cut down, peeled and stored
before the meeting, all achieved through
members volunteering their time.
The Ellesmere Show Committee also
spends considerable time and effort
preparing the grounds, sorting out
the hosting requirements, and gaining
sponsorship. Sponsors include Think
Water Leeston, Canterbury Waterproofing,
Ellesmere Motor Bodies, McMillan
Drilling Group and Stihl Shop Fosters.
Events will include standing and
underhand chops, single and doublehanded
sawing, and some extra women’s
events, both sawing and chopping, to
celebrate this year’s theme ‘Celebrating
Rural Women’.

Shears
This year’s shearing competition is
expected to be another prime event with
a good showing of competitors expected
throughout the grades. The Speed Shear
will be a highlight, with competitors set
to shear their sheep in under 40 seconds.
A blade shearer will take on a machine
shearer to see who can de-fleece a sheep
the fastest.
The open grade will see a number of
world-class shearers in action.
Sponsors are: BE & PM Pullin Shearing
Ltd, Webster Shearin, Dunsandel Tavern,
Mainland Wools, Westpac, Ellesmere
Transport, Acto Agriculture.
Sheep to
feature
strongly
at show
Sheep
dog trials
Ellesmere A&P Association Dog Trials
competition includes District Maiden,
District (Boon Trophy), Maiden (Barclay
Cup) and Open class (DC Gilbert Challenge
Cup).
Shepherd and dog will have eight
minutes to drive three sheep through two
sets of hurdles and put them in the pen to
complete the run.
The dog trials event is well supported
across the four classes with the district
dogs running on Friday afternoon and the
maiden and open classes on the Saturday.
It is sponsored by Brian Brice of HRL Ltd
Sheep entries are up significantly this
year, due to president Paula McIlraith
and husband Alistair’s involvement in the
stud sheep industry. Their breeds, the Poll
Dorset and Suffolk, are both having feature
shows, attracting increased entries in these
sections. The black and coloured sections
also have a feature show.
The champions from each breed’s section
will contest the Donald Cameron Memorial
trophy for the Supreme Sheep of the Show.
The best ram hoggets from each breed will
contest the Connelly Cup for meat breeds
and the Ellesmere Livestock Trophy for
wool breeds, sponsored by Peter Walsh &
Associates.
The best ewe hogget contest, the Adelong
Trophies, is sponsored by Essential
Nutrition.
The specialised competitions, the
Alliance Group Export Sire Competition,
the ANZCO Foods Canterbury Hoof
and Hook Lamb Competition, and the
Rabobank Gift Lamb competition, will
again be hotly contested.
Dairy
This year’s dairy section will bring registered breeders from
as far north as Rangiora through to the Ellesmere District and
surrounding areas of Methven. Major sponsor Agrisea will again
contribute to the day, along with DBC, Semex Samen NZ, WWS,
Genetic Enterprises, Tahora Farm, ABS, Vitec Nutrition, Aakland
Chemicals and Riverbrae Dairy Farm Ltd.
The Holstein classes will be judged by Peter Sheriff from the
Sherraine Holstein Friesian Stud, Ohoka.
The Jersey judge will be Robert Kelly from Oamaru. Robert has
judged nationwide and has been invited back to this year’s show to
judge the Jerseys.
The Ayeshire breed will
again be well represented
by local exhibitors so
the all breeds classes
will ensure good class
numbers. Richard Boyce
will again be judging the
calf club section with
good entries throughout
the different age groups.
Beef cattle
This year’s beef judge for the Ellesmere Show is Rob Burrows
from Ashley. As an RAS judge Rob is an approved interbreed
national beef judge. Originally from Culverden he currently runs
the Beechwood Hereford and Charolais Studs.
Associate judge is Marie Timperley of Oxford, who runs the
Timperlea Angus Stud. Last year Marie won the Five Nations Beef
Alliance Young Leader Scholarship, which allowed her to attend a
conference in Mexico.
The two main sponsors are Tavendale & Partners and Brown
Glassford & Co.

Major revamp for Colorado
• By Ross Kiddie
THE 2017 Holden Colorado
ute is now on sale in New
Zealand.
Although based on the
model it replaces the newcomer
has many changes,
most evident in a completely
revised interior, gains in
overall quietness and ride,
while handling is aided by
electric power steering across
the range.
Under the bonnet the engine
is mostly a carryover, the
four-cylinder, twin-camshaft,
turbocharged diesel produces
147kW and 500Nm. There
are choices of both manual
and automatic gearboxes,
along with two and fourwheel-drive
options. There’s
also a choice of three body
styles – single-cab, spacecab
and crewcab.
Payload and towing capability
is rated at 1-tonne and
3.5-tonne respectively. A list
of 77 genuine accessories
available across the range.
“Colorado has resonated
well with customers in a
segment that has more than
doubled in sales in the last 10
years, and we’re confident the
new 2017 Colorado will build
on this and redefine customer
expectations of what a truck
HOLDEN COLORADO: Many options within the range,
including both two and four-wheel-drive variants.
can be,” Holden New Zealand
managing director Kristian
Aquilina said.
“Not only does it come
with fresh new styling, it also
offers car-like refinement,
ride and handling as well as
vehicle technologies unique
to this segment including
Apple CarPlay and Android
Auto connectivity.
“Colorado is also the only
vehicle in the 4x4 utility vehicle
segment to offer remote
window activation – a feature
we expect to be popular with
customers in warmer parts of
New Zealand.”
Colorado’s technology offering
also provides notable
safety enhancements, including
a new forward facing camera
with active safety features
such as forward collision alert
and lane departure warning.
For low speed manoeuvres,
drivers are assisted by
front and rear park assist on
selected vehicles and rear view
camera across the range.
The Colorado also has a
new MyLink infotainment
system delivered through a
colour touchscreen.
Said Mr Aquilina: “Pleasingly,
we have been able to
maintain carry-over pricing
for two-wheel drive models
and just a $1000 increase for
four-wheel drive variants.”
Prices range from $39,990
to $66,990.

Your guide to Show Homes & New Sections
in the Selwyn District
Rolleston – Then & Now
There is much to celebrate
with Rolleston turning 150
and maybe a little melancholy
as some remember the town
as it was.
Strategically positioned by state
highway one and the midland/
southern railway junction, Rolleston’s
origin links to the opening of its
railway station, in 1866, named after
William Rolleston (Canterbury’s last
provincial superintendent).
The area was originally a large sheep
run, farmed by Fitzgerald and Cox.
This was divided into smaller lots
early in the 1860s, with some of the
subsequent farmers names like Levi
Lowe, Henry Benny and the Fosters
still linked to the area.
Lex Cockburn’s family moved to
Hoskyns Road in 1929 where his
parents ran sheep on 300 acres.
“It was tough making a living out
of farming,” says Lex who remembers
gorse and broom right to the edge
of the road and his parents sending
him to Weedons School so he did
not have to cross the railway line and
main road, to reach Rolleston Primary
School, which originally opened in
1893.
For much of its 125 years, Rolleston
was small with few amenities.
John Neville purchased a section in
Rolleston in the 1970s for $800.
“We could only
buy icecreams or
chocolate at the
Rolly Inn when it
was open,” adds
Lex.
“We played
tennis on the road
and my father dug a long jump pit in
the footpath for us. Everyone knew
each other back then,” says Eleanor
Payne who has lived in Rolleston all
her life.
Prime Minister Norman Kirk
mooted the idea of Rolleston as a
satellite to Christchurch in the 1970s.
“My parents owned 500 acres where
Rolleston town now stands which the
government purchased in September
1976,” says Rayleen Clarke (nee
Wilson).
The government changed and the
plan was shelved though floated
periodically with the land sold onto
private developers. Meanwhile, private
enterprise promoted and developed
Rolleston as the ‘Town of the Future’.
“Paramount Homes built down
Moore Street. I bought a full quarter
acre section for $800, which was about
a third less than in Christchurch, with
the home and land costing around the
$5,000 mark,” says John Neville who
moved to Rolleston for cheap land in
the 1970s.
The population grew to around
1,000 then later lifestyle blocks
attracted people with the population
steadily growing, with the Rolleston

wreaked homes in Christchurch,
many people relocated to Rolleston.
This spurred planning changes with
denser housing. Housing estates filled
quickly, more land opened up and the
population climbed to around 14,000.

Rolleston in 1966.
Shopping precincts and public
amenities have been added over time
with four primary schools and a high
school by 2017 and numerous preschools.
Over the railway tracks, industry
has grown where two inland ports
see containers loaded onto trains for
transporting to the ports of Timaru or
Lyttelton.
Selwyn now has age and ethnic
diversity. Once a young town,
Rolleston now embraces those older
with smaller sections, townhouses,
over 60s units, rest homes and
retirement villages being built.
No wonder, the region’s growth
is anticipated to reach 2.4% and
Rolleston’s population to double by
2040.

The big spring clean

All the benefits,
none of the stress.
Over 15 years experience in managing investment properties
has given us valuable insight into how to maximise returns
and minimise stress for our clients.
Our detailed approach to everything
from selecting the right tenants to
effectively handling rent arrears
and maintenance issues, means our

knowing their investment is in good
hands. Our exceptionally high occupancy

Contact us today to see what we can
do for you.
The spring clean has a long history,
and for good reason. Spring is
the first opportunity to open
up windows and doors, and let
warm, dry air into the house, helping
remove winter moisture and any additional
dampness created during; for example,
carpet cleaning. It’s not just about making
the house look better, but also preserving
the fixtures and fittings in your home,
and maintaining a healthy environment
by removing unwanted dust, bugs and
maybe mould.
Mattress care is a good example. We spend
up a third of our life in bed, and it’s a dirty
place. We shed skin that is devoured by
millions of dust mites, and we sweat. It all
causes deterioration that leads to a worse
sleep. Vacuuming the mattress, turning it
over and leaving it exposed to sunlight are
simple things to add to your spring cleaning
list for great dividends in the long run.
Making a list is a good idea, albeit a little
disheartening as it gets longer. You do,
however, get a small reward as you tick
off each item. Spring cleaning is one of
those activities that is most satisfying when
finished (rather than during), and lends itself
to a management method called the salami
technique. Use small steps to reach your goal,
like slicing a salami, rather than trying to
eat it whole, and you’ll get through your list
before you know it. If you need a list, Google
‘spring clean’ and customise to your particular
circumstances.
A comprehensive clean is also a good
opportunity to review your possessions.
There has been some great innovations in
storage solutions recently, including drawers
built into stairs and into the kickboards in
kitchens, but you have to ask yourself – if I

in your spring cleaning!
need that much storage, maybe I just own too
much, and do I really need it all? Research in
the USA showed there was around 300,000
items in the average home, and many of us
are probably not that far behind. This has
spawned a movement called minimalism,
where people reduce what they own. It
doesn’t mean living a Spartan lifestyle where
you go without; people who try it say it just
feels more liberating. It’s hard to do though,
as we tend to be loss averse – we place a high
value on what we own, and simply don’t
part with it easily. It’s much easier to clean
a minimalist home, and much easier to make
it look stylish. If you want to rid yourself of
extra bits and bobs, try putting them on
the local neighbourhood Facebook page or
choose to have a garage sale, with an early
start and day of fun and conversation with
people.
Spring is the season associated with renewal
and growth, and it’s a good opportunity to
use that increased energy and enthusiasm
you have to get your renovation projects
underway, too.
