Countdown to big rock concert 

• By Tom Doudney 

THE LINCOLN Domain is 

about to be transformed from 

a sleepy sports and recreation 

ground to rock ’n’ roll showpiece. 

With Selwyn’s biggest ever 

music festival just around the 

corner on March 4, preparation 

will begin on Monday, almost a 

week before the first band takes 

the stage. 

The show features big name 

Kiwi acts, including Mi-Sex, 

Dragon, The Jordan Luck Band, 

Annie Crummer, Margaret 

Urlich, Debbie Harwood, Sharon 

O’Neill and Jason Kerrison, as 

well as many other artists. 

Promoter David Parlane said 

bringing everything together for 

the day was a bit like organising 

an army. 

“You’ve got to get everybody in 

at the right time and in the right 

spot.” 

The first trucks will roll in on 

Monday, putting the 20m by 15m 

wide stage in place, with more 

work on fully assembling it and 

putting up the marquees to take 

place over the next two days. 

About 1km of fencing, 70 

portaloos, 24 urinals and four 

6.1m beverage chillers will also 

be installed at the ground during 

the week. 

There will be 28 food vendors, 

more than 125 festival staff and 

of course 62 artists on stage. 

“We hope to be in concertprepared 

mode by about 8am on 

the Friday morning so if there is 

anything that needs to be fixed 

we have got all day to figure it 

out,” Mr Parlane said. 

The first big name artist expected 

to arrive in Lincoln will 

be Kerrison on March 2, with 

most of the others getting in on 

March 3. 

The ground has capacity for 

10,000 people. Mr Parlane said 

ticket sales had been strong but 

there were still some available 

from Ticketek. 

While special bus passes 

between Christchurch and the 

show were almost sold out, there 

is a plan to increase the number 

of public buses on the day.

Murray Burns from Mi-Sex

SELWYN TIMES 

FROM 

THE 

EDITOR’S 

DESK News...............................3, 7, 10 

HATS OFF to all of the Selwyn 

fire fighters who fought last 

week’s savage Port Hills blaze. 

They did a fantastic job against 

extreme odds, and their magnificent 

efforts almost certainly 

saved many more properties 

from being destroyed. 

If the fire had not been 

stopped on top of the Cashmere 

Hills, who knows what carnage 

it could have caused if it was able 

to sweep down into Westmorland 

and beyond. 

The flammable materials 

and vehicles (with petrol) in 

residential areas, combined with 

tinder dry vegetation, would 

have turned the blaze into an 

unimaginable fire storm. 

We cover their deeds on pages 

4-5 today, but the message from 

last week’s fires is that we have 

to be super careful for the rest of 

the summer.

Concern over future 

nine bands. 

use of Weedons motel site 


A FORMER motel’s planned 

transformation into social 

housing has Weedons residents 

feeling uneasy. 

The Salvation Army plans to 

use the former Blue Gum Lodge 

Motel, on State Highway 1 north 

of Rolleston, to accommodate 

people on the Ministry of Social 

Development’s social housing 

register. 

An anonymous flyer recently 

distributed to Weedons residents 

had suggested the motel 

was going to be used as a halfway 

house for recently-released 

prisoners. Salvation Army social 

housing national director Greg 

Foster said this was false but 

an administrative office for its 

post-prison reintegration service 

would also be based on the site. 

The motel closed in August 

2015 because some of its land 

was needed for the Southern 

Motorway extension. It was 

bought by the New Zealand 

Transport Authority which is in 

discussions with the Salvation 

Army on a contract to lease the 

property. 

In spite of the assurances that 

CLOSED: The Blue Gum Lodge Motel was sold to the New 

Zealand Transport Authority because it was needed for the 

Southern Motorway extension. 

Greg Foster Gary Doyle 

it wouldn’t be a halfway house, 

locals who spoke to the Selwyn 

Times were still uneasy about 

the prospect of social housing 

on the site. 

Weedons resident Gary Doyle 

said he wanted more information 

about plans for the site and 

what sort of tenants would be 

housed there. 

“Some of the people they get 

in some of their houses have 

an interesting background,” he 

said. 

Another Weedons resident, 

who declined to be named, said 

he also had questions about 

what type of tenants would be 

accommodated. 

“Are they getting put out here 

because they are not suitable for 

elsewhere or is it just simply because 

of the housing shortage?” 

He was concerned about a potential 

increase in crime in the 

one day. 

www.selwynsounds.co.nz 

area and also whether opening 

social housing, in conjunction 

with increased commercial 

development in the area, would 

have an effect on residents’ 

house values. 

Mr Foster said the Salvation 

Army hoped to provide housing 

on the site as soon as negotiations 

were complete, expected 

to be some time in the next few 

months. 

“We started consultation with 

the Selwyn District Council and 

with the Selwyn Community 

Care Network in November and 

discussions with both are ongoing,” 

he said. 

The initial plan was to house 

seven single people in the available 

units. There would be a 

manager on site 24 hours a day. 

Salvation Army Corps Officer 

Lieutenant Nathan Holt would 

also be visiting the site regularly 

to support tenants. 

“He’s happy to talk to anyone 

in the community who has further 

questions,” Mr Foster said.

you think about the former

In Brief 

ALLEGED SHOPLIFTER 

Keen observation by shop staff 

and quick action by police resulted 

in an alleged serial shoplifter 

being arrested at The Warehouse 

Rolleston on Thursday. A staff 

member at nearby Rolleston 

Hammer Hardware observed a 

woman acting suspiciously in 

the store before heading towards 

The Warehouse and called 

police. Police and security at The 

Warehouse used security cameras 

to observe the woman allegedly 

smuggle clothing out of the store 

and she was apprehended just 

outside. The Christchurch woman, 

43, has been charged with this and 

three other instances of alleged 

shoplifting at The Warehouse 

Eastgate between December and 

this month. She will appear in 

court on March 31. 

SWIMMABLE SELWYN 

A workshop to progress a campaign 

to make the Selwyn River 

swimmable again at Coes Ford will 

be held at the Lincoln Event Centre 

at 4pm tomorrow. The Selwyn 

Waihora Zone Committee agreed 

to take on the Swimmable Selwyn 

@ Coes Ford campaign last year. 

The purpose of this workshop is to 

identify what is already being done 

to improve the river at Coes Ford. 

A couple of Hearing HEAR 

S 

Dawn and George Prattley are my HEARING 

HEARO’s!! They are such a wonderful couple. 

I loved meeting them and helping them hear 

better. The lovely part about audiology is 

that when someone chooses to come into 

the clinic, that is just the beginning of a long 

relationship. Hearing changes over time and 

I am happy that our paths will continue to 

cross for years to come. 

Dawn had been having complications from 

Meniere’s Disease effecting her right ear 

since 2013. The condition worsened and 

in January last year her specialist 

needed to do a intratympanic 

Gentamycin injection into 

her right ear drum. While 

this would help Dawn in 

many ways, the downside of 

this treatment was that 

she would be deaf in 

that ear. He warned 

her that hearing 

aids would be highly 

unlikely to assist her. 

“In May, my GP suggested that I go and see 

Brenna, to have a hearing test and get her 

opinion and advice,” says Dawn. “After the 

testing, Brenna put some hearing aids in and 

tuned them to my hearing (or lack thereof).” 

“Instantly I noticed the difference to the 

sounds I was hearing. I left Brenna’s clinic 

that day knowing that hearing aids would 

help me. That was a great feeling!” 

“I thought about it for a week and then said 

to my husband George that is was no use 

me getting my hearing sorted if he didn’t…. 

because he would still need to turn the TV 

up too loud if he didn’t get hearing aids too! 

George agreed and now we are both wired for 

sound.” 

“Brenna is lovely, gentle and patient. She answered 

all of our questions and did not push 

us into buying hearing aids. It was such a positive 

experience.” “If you have hearing aids in 

a draw and don’t wear them or you need a

hearing test, I would highly recommend that 

you go and see Brenna!” 

“Now I can hear birds singing and it is so 

much easier to simply have a conversation,” 

says Dawn. “

Port Hills fire 

SELWYN TIMES 

Great job guys! 

WELL EARNED: Lincoln firefighters (from left), Kyle Steans, Josh 

Nelson, Paul Barbet, Gavin Lack and Ollie Rutland-Sims enjoy a 

lunch of baked potatoes and American hotdogs after returning 

to the station for a rest on Thursday. 

STANDING THEIR GROUND: Rolleston firefighters protecting 

houses on Kennedys Bush Rd. 


SELWYN FIRE chiefs have paid 

tribute to their crews who spent 

much of last week battling the fires 

which tore across the Port Hills. 

Brigades from across Selwyn 

were involved with fighting the 

fires which burned through 

2075ha, destroyed nine houses 

and damaged two more. 

Lincoln fire chief Jeremy 

Greenwood said he was extremely 

proud of what his crews 

had done since being one of the 

first brigades in action when the 

initial fire broke out on Early 

Valley Rd on Monday last week. 

“The guys have just worked 

tirelessly, just worked and 

worked and worked, without 

once questioning the workload,” 

Mr Greenwood said. 

“We had guys who would be 

working at night, they would get 

a few hours sleep and then be returning 

to their day jobs as well.” 

Mr Greenwood said Lincoln 

crews had been doing tough six 

to eight hours rotating shifts. 

“It’s tough terrain, a lot of hill 

work and a lot of carting gear up 

and down hills and a lot of physically 

demanding work,” he said. 

“It takes a toll and that’s why 

we were very mindful of the importance 

of rotating those crews.” 

HARD YARDS DONE: Lincoln firefighters (from left), Ollie 

Rutland-Sims, Josh Nelson, Ange Hooper, Gavin Lack and 

Kyle Steans still in high spirits heading back to their station 

after a long day and a variety of missions on Thursday. 

Rolleston fire chief Nigel Lilley 

echoed Mr Greenwood’s praise 

when talking about how his firefighters 

had performed their duty. 

“I’m just so proud of how 

professional and willing they 

were to give their time, for free 

as always, in these extreme circumstances,” 

he said. 

Crews had to retreat several 

times when the risk to them 

became too high. 

“Safety comes first but there is 

still always imminent danger,” 

Mr Lilley said. 

Both chiefs also thanked the 

families and employers who had 

been understanding of firefighters 

having to leave their jobs and 

homes for many hours; and the 

businesses and members of the 

public who gave food, refreshments 

and messages of support to 

firefighters during the operation. 

Mr Greenwood said it was 

overwhelming to know they had 

that level of support. 

“We don’t expect anything at 

all, it’s what we do, what we have 

been trained for, and we don’t 

expect that but it’s extremely appreciated,” 

he said.

Student vet’s South African safari 

ROLLESTON veterinary student 

Heather Neill plans to put her 

training to good use, working 

with wildlife in South Africa in 

June and July. 

Ms Neill, 20, is in her 

third year of study at Massey 

University, has been given 

the chance to take part in a 

two week-long volunteering 

programme for veterinary 

students in one of the more 

disadvantaged areas. 

The Safari4U Veterinary 

Programme will see her working 

with large and small, domestic 

and wild animals as she helps 

to treat some of those which 

would otherwise be without 

care. 

She will also be involved in 

educating the locals about animal 

care. 

Ms Neill said that while there 

were a large number of worthy 

charities providing aid to people 

in impoverished regions of 

African countries, she felt that 

animals in the region were often 

overlooked. 

“I’m super excited for the 

opportunity to make a 

difference in a community 

which otherwise would probably 

remain relatively disadvantaged,” 

she said. 

“I want to do what little I can 

to learn and gain new skills so 

I can be more helpful in the 

future.” 

Taking part in the programme 

will cost her more than $6000 

and she has created a Givealittle 

page to take donations. 

Ms Neill said the ability to get 

hands-on experience in this field 

within New Zealand was limited, 

although she tried to take every 

opportunity she got. 

Her desire to help people and 

animals and the fact she liked 

problem solving were factors in 

her decision to become a vet. 

She has a cat called Winston 

and has recently been elected secretary 

of the Massey University 

Wildlife and Conservation Club 

for this year. 

•Anyone wishing to donate 

money to help Ms Neill 

take part in the programme 

can do so via https:// 

givealittle.co.nz/cause/ 

heathertoafrica. 

KEEN: Third year veterinary student Heather Neill is 

looking forward to doing volunteer work in South Africa 

this year.

“ EVERYONE 

KNOWS 

MY MOLLY.” 

“I really am so happy here.” 

When Bev found out she was able to bring her 

mini schnauzer Molly to her Summerset retirement 

village, she was thrilled. 

“Molly is very important to me, I wouldn’t have 

wanted to make the move without her.” 

After being at Summerset for only a few months, Bev 

was surprised at how quickly she settled into village 

life. She really likes the feeling that she’s secure and 

that help is always at hand should 

she need it. 

Come and see why 

we love the life at Summerset

Your Local Views 

Are you prepared for a disaster? 

Deputy mayor 

Malcolm 

Lyall writes 

about disaster 

preparedness 

in light of the 

Port Hills fires 

Are you ready? 

As I write this we are approaching 

the anniversary of the 

2011 quake, while 15 aircraft and 

150 firefighters are working to 

extinguish the Port Hills fire. 

I am asking you ‘are you prepared 

if disaster strikes? Do you 

have an emergency kit? Is it up 

to date? And are you registered 

with Selwyn Gets Ready?’ 

The district council uses a 

community response model 

across the district to meet the 

civil defence needs of our 

communities. It’s about understanding 

our hazards and being 

organised and ready to look after 

each other in an emergency. 

The model is based on 

neighbourhood support groups. 

Street/road co-ordinators are 

responsible for checking on their 

neighbourhood and reporting 

back to a locally based community 

response team. This team’s 

role is to co-ordinate the local 

response and communicate directly 

with the district council’s 

emergency operations centre. 

The district council also feeds 

information back to the community 

in the same way. 

That is where Selwyn Gets 

Ready comes in. I would like 

every household in Selwyn to 

join our emergency management/neighbourhood 

support 

website selwyn.getsready.net 

This is a website where you 

can securely record your contact 

details and any special needs, 

resources and skills that your 

household has, so your neighbourhood 

is better able to take 

care of itself in an emergency. 

By joining Selwyn Gets Ready 

you can receive emergency 

messages that affect your family 

like boil water notices, warning 

about uncontrolled fires nearby

week’s fire.

and police messages about local 

active burglars, from the district 

council’s emergency management 

team. 

With this latest emergency, 

many residents from Selwyn and 

neighbouring Christchurch have 

joined to be able to get updates 

and welfare information. By 

joining we are strengthening our 

communities resilience, we all 

benefit. 

The past few days have seen 

a huge effort from our civil defence 

and rural fire teams. Our 

local communities have helped 

feed and refresh the men and 

women fighting the fires and 

many staff and volunteers have 

kept the back room operations 

running. 

Thank you all, you are what 

makes Selwyn sensational. 

Andrew McGee, of Darfield, 

responds to news the 

district council will seek 

Darfield and Kirwee 

residents’ views on whether 

a reticulated sewer network 

should be installed in the 

area 

Looking back 

SELWYN TIMES 

I am not interested at all in 

a reticulated sewer scheme as 

a ratepayer and resident of the 

town of Darfield. 

I would like to voice my 

opposition to this. 

At that price, $23,700 per 

household, count me out.

News 

Plea to help school restore river 

A crowdfunding campaign 

to restore native vegetation 

along a 200m section of the 

Halswell/Huritini River needs 

a final boost to hit its target. 

Te Ara Kakariki Canterbury 

Greenway Trust is aiming to 

raise $9000 for Ladbrooks 

School children to restore a 

place by the river known as 

Stackwoods Bend. 

The trust’s mission is to 

bring pockets of native plants 

back to Selwyn between the 

mountains and the sea. Part of 

its work also involves educating 

young people about native 

plants and their ecological significance 

through school field 

trips known as Kids Discovery 

Plantout days. 

The crowdfunding campaign, 

a first for the trust, has 

raised $8203 since December. 

It has been run with the support 

of the Million Metres 

streams project. 

Te Ara Kakariki co-ordinator 

Elizabeth Guthrey said 

the trust was thankful for the 

support it had received so far. 

“It will go to a great cause. 

The kids love Discovery Plantout 

days and the plantings 

will contribute to a healthier 

river and sorely needed habitat 

for native birds,” she said. 

Million Metres matched 

funding for the first $2000 in 

individual donations, and the 

Kingswood Skis company has 

recently joined the cause by 

committing to funding a metre 

of planting for every pair 

of skis sold before March 1. 

Kingswood Skis director 

Kris Herbert said healthy 

waterways were important to 

everyone who loved spending 

time in the outdoors. 

“Skiing powder, catching a 

wave or jumping into a fresh 

blue swimming hole – these 

are all part of a lifestyle that 

makes the most of our beautiful 

country,” he said. 

“You can’t help but want to 

protect these places when you 

spend time in them. We’ve 

signed online petitions and 

grumbled over recent reports 

that 62 per cent of lowland 

rivers are unswimmable, but 

this project is actually doing 

something about it.” 

NATURE: The 

Stackwoods Bend 

section of the Halswell/ 

Huritini River is the site 

of a planned restoration 

programme. Kids 

Discovery Plantout 

facilitator Lou Drage 

and Ladbrooks School 

pupils learn about the 

river’s native plants 

and their ecological 

significance. 

If more than $9000 is raised, 

more trees will be planted. 

•To donate or watch a

Selwyn Sounds 

Hear tracks from new Mi-Sex album live 


IF KIWI rock heavyweights 

Mi-Sex needed any validation 

for their decision to record their 

first new album in 33 years, the 

live crowds’ reaction gave it to 

them. 

The band’s fith album Not 

From Here was released in September 

with vocalist Steve Balbi 

replacing original singer Steve 

Gilpin, who died in 1991. 

Mi-Sex will co-headline the 

Selwyn Sounds concert in Lincoln 

on March 4 with Dragon. 

Other big acts will include The 

Jordan Luck Band, Annie Crummer, 

Margaret Urlich, Debbie 

Harwood, Sharon O’Neill and 

Jason Kerrison. 

Keyboardist Murray Burns 

said the band had been playing a 

mix of old and new material on 

their recent North Island tour 

with The Feelers and Dragon. 

“You could tell that some of 

the younger members of the 

crowd knew a few of our songs 

like Computer Games and Blue 

Day but they didn’t really know 

the other ones,” Burns said. 

“What was very rewarding 

for us was that an audience that 

weren’t really familiar with our 

old and new material responded 

in some ways stronger to our 

newer stuff than our older stuff. 

That made the whole experience 

of recording new songs feel really 

worthwhile to us.” 

Ater so long without writing 

music together, Burns found 

working on new material to be 

surprisingly easy. 

“To jump in a room with 

someone you have never written 

a song with, with Steve Balbi, 

was an amazing experience. Steve 

is a fantastic songwriter and 

lyricist and the basic embryos of 

those songs came together in a 

matter of minutes.” 

Burns said the band had been 

having a great time since they 

started touring again in 2011. 

“We are treating Mi-Sex more 

as an experience again ater 30 

years of not playing,” he said. 

“We are not feeling that we are 

going to go out and conquer the 

world, we are not 21-years-old 

any more, but we are having a 

really good time playing and we 

also had a really good time making 

this record.” 

When they’re not touring, the 

band members live far apart – in 

Christchurch, Auckland, Sydney 

and, in Burns’ case, Byron Bay, 

New South Wales. 

“We decide on set lists and 

things like that when we meet at 

airports quite oten,” he said. 

Burns produces music for 

young bands from his own studio 

but aside from that, doesn’t 

listen to much new music. 

“I live in the countryside and I 

quite enjoy just the empty space 

because music is a big part of my 

life. I will be in the studio today 

mixing for five or six hours and 

when I come out of the studio 

I mostly drive around with the 

windows down and don’t listen 

to much music,” he said. 

“I listen to the birds in the 

trees, actually, and the wind.” 

THEY’RE BACK: 

Mi-Sex are 

touring again 

after putting out 

their first new 

album in 33 

years. The band 

say recording 

material with 

new singer Steve 

Balbi (below, far 

left), was an easy 

process. 

•Selwyn Sounds will 

be held on March 4, 

from 11.30am-8.30pm. Tickets 

can be purchased via 

Ticketek and buyers will be 

able to pre-purchase a return 

bus ride between pickup 

points in Christchurch 

or Rolleston and Lincoln

HERITAGE OPEN DAY

SELWYN TIMES 

Reduce waste and 

save money 

In March, the Council is sponsoring two local workshops where you can find out how to reduce 

waste and save money when cooking, shopping, and caring for your family. 

New Zealand Mum Kate Meads will host the workshops at Rolleston on Saturday 4 March. 

Kate brings her own experience with a young baby to the workshop. “We filled our wheelie bin 

every week with nappies, food waste, packaging and general household waste,” says Kate. “We 

bulk purchased fresh foods and threw loads of it out. We became reliant on disposable products 

to save us time but ended up working longer hours to afford a disposable lifestyle.” 

Kate realised that eventually her son and grandchildren would have a huge mess to tidy up and 

decided to change her habits. 

Kate will hold a ‘Food Lover’s Masterclass’ workshop at Rolleston Community Centre on Saturday 

4 March from 6-8pm. She will give advice on meal planning, smart shopping and food storage 

and use. An average New Zealand household throws out about $563 of food every year, and Kate 

will talk about how you can stop wasting money and creating unnecessary waste. The workshop 

costs $25 per ticket and you will receive a goodie bag valued at $100 which includes handy 

items for minimising waste such as reusable, dishwasher safe food pouches and lunch wrap 

alternatives. Bookings are required – to book visit www.wastefreeparenting.co.nz. 

Kate will also run a waste free parenting workshop on Saturday 4 March at Rolleston Community 

Centre from 10am-12.30pm. The workshop will cover ways to reduce waste in your home, save 

money and introduce you to some sustainable household products. Tickets are $25 per person or 

$25 per couple, and you receive a goodie bag valued at $100 which includes reusable cloth nappy 

samples and other items to minimise waste with babies or young children. To find out more and 

book visit www.wastefreeparenting.co.nz. Parents are welcome to bring their children with them. 

On the roads this week 

Road repairs are planned on Telegraph, Weedons Ross and Leaches Roads, with traffic controls 

operating. Road resurfacing is planned on Newtons and Coal Track Roads, with stop/go controls 

operating. Footpath repairs are planned on Hasendene Place in Lincoln. 

During this week, road surface repairs will occur on 

Springston Rolleston Road. Between Broadlands Drive 

and Selwyn Road the road will be closed overnight from 

7pm until 6am during this period, but open to traffic 

during the daytime. During the daytime drivers will need 

to reduce speed, and overnight a detour will operate via 

Goulds, East Maddisons and Selwyn Road and Selwyn 

and Lincoln Rolleston and Lowes Roads. 

The new roundabout at the intersection of Kidman, 

Byron and Tennyson Streets (right) is now open to traffic. 

A small area of footpath on the north west corner is to 

be completed following removal of Telecom pillars and 

relocation of the boundary fence. 

Ongoing works 

Work is continuing on the Masefield Drive upgrade with kerb and channel being poured and a new footpath 

being constructed. Temporary traffic management is in place – please take care past the work site. 

Manse Road roading and stormwater improvement continues. East Maddisons Road is open to 

traffic one way only between Ellington Mews and Goulds Road for sewer installation work. Road 

reconstruction continues on Gerald Street (between Springs Road and Vernon Drive), with traffic 

controls operating. 

Christchurch Southern Motorway extension 

The passing lane on Main South Road between Rolleston and Weedens Road will be closed from 

Monday 20 February for works related to the Christchurch Southern Motorway Stage 2. Trents Road, 

between the corner of Blakes Road and 150 Trents Road, is also closed to through traffic, with a detour 

operating via Blakes Road and Shands Road. 

The closure previously on Weedons Road will be reinstated from Monday 20 February for up to two 

weeks. There is no access to Main South Road from Levi Road with a one way system in place. 

Port Hills fire information 

Fire fighting crews, helicopter and aircraft are continuing to work on 

the fire (which started in the Lansdowne area in Selwyn) this week 

dampening down hot spots. There remains a risk that changing 

weather conditions could cause hot spots to flare up. Thermal 

scanning is continuing from the air to help identify hot spots. There 

is also heavy machinery being used to create fire breaks around the 

perimeter and fell trees. Please continue to stay away from the fire 

area as it is still extremely hazardous. 

A State of Emergency remains in place in Selwyn and Christchurch. 

A total fire ban remains in place until further notice in Selwyn and 

includes a ban on all stubble fires. 

Christchurch City Council has closed recreation areas of the Port 

Hills to the public due to ongoing safety risk. Restricted zones are 

for all tracks and open areas in the Port Hills, including Victoria 

Park and the Rapaki, Mt Vernon and Huntsbury tracks. Signage is 

in place. The restrictions are likely to be in place for several weeks. 

Updates on road cordons will be posted on newsline (see below). 

A Selwyn Civil Defence recovery team has been established to help 

residents with any issues they have due to the fire. The team can be 

contacted at recovery@selwyn.govt.nz If you need welfare assistance 

please contact 027 556 5748 or email welfare@selwyn.govt.nz 

For the latest updates and information on the Port Hills fires see 

www.ccc.govt.nz/newsline or follow ‘Christchurch Civil Defence 

Emergency Management’ or ‘Selwyn District Council’ on Facebook. 

We want to thank the fire fighters and emergency services for their 

continued efforts in fighting the fire and thank the community for 

their ongoing support.

Praying mantis lurking in Lincoln 

Mike Bowie is 

an ecologist 

who specialises 

in entomology 

(insects 

and other 

invertebrates). Each 

week he will introduce a 

new species found in his 

backyard at Lincoln. His 

weekly column aims to 

raise public awareness of 

the variety of living things 

around us 

THE NEW Zealand praying 

mantis (orthodera novaezealandiae) 

is a predator that 

catches its prey by ambush. 

By blending in with its green 

surroundings, mantids catch 

their unsuspecting prey, such 

as flies, by firing their highly 

adapted front legs at lightning 

speed. 

They are distinguished from 

the exotic South African praying 

mantis by the presence of 

a blue/purple circular patch on 

the inside of their front legs. 

Their egg cases, or oothecae, 

are often stuck to fences, 

houses or trees exposed to the 

sun to aid hatching. Egg cases 

are usually 1-2cm long and 

are laid in autumn and over 

winter until the accumulated 

temperature in spring is sufficient 

to make the nymphs 

hatch. 

The nymphs emerge from 

the egg case (above left) as the 

white waxy seal that protects 

the developing nymphs is no 

longer visible. 

Usually one, but sometimes 

two nymphs emerge out of 

each hole of the ootheca. 

Once the nymphs have all 

hatched (by mid-summer), 

it is safe to remove these egg 

cases from your house, as the 

mantids will be busy catching 

flies and the like. 

NEXT GENERATION: Praying mantis egg 

cases can often be found stuck to fences, 

houses or trees exposed to the sun. 

They are very susceptible to 

insecticides so it is best to keep 

spraying to a minimum, if at 

all.

TOUGH TOIL in the field and 

positive, aggressive cricket 

earned maximum points for 

both Greendale and Sefton in the 

third round of the CRV Ambreed 

Country Premier two-day cricket 

competition. 

Greendale started their second 

innings, on Saturday, one run 

behind Leeston-Southbridge on 

the first innings. 

Riley Wilson’s score of 47, and 

38 from Tig Dalley saw them 

through to 150 which set the 

combined side exactly 150 to 

win. 

But they never challenged the 

total. Regan Dalley and Haigh 

Jebson both bowled superbly, 

each snaring three wickets 

and earning Greendale a welldeserved 

61-run victory. 

Sefton, having declared at 

347/5 at the end of day one with 

a lead of 226, spent a long day 

toiling in the field against South 

Malvern. 

The North Canterbury side 

snared two early wickets but 

South Malvern batted well to 

recover to 192/6 at lunch, with 

Mike Pauling and James Ferris 

each compiling 70s. 

SPORTS 

Maximum points for 

Greendale and Sefton 

Jeff Chapman and Will Wright 

came out after lunch and scored 

freely putting South Malvern 

ahead and assuring Sefton would 

have to bat again. 

Chapman continued scoring 

freely against the tiring Sefton 

attack before being removed for 

87. 

Matt Rowe toiled away all day 

bowling 18.3 overs and claiming 

4/107. 

South Malvern decided to 

make a game of it and push for 

an unlikely outright win and 

declared after 78.3 overs, with an 

hour of play still to go and 132 

runs ahead. Sixteen overs had to 

be bowled before the end of play. 

Sefton launched at the target, 

with Matt Laffey scoring a quickfire 

45. 

South Malvern took three 

quick wickets and had a sniff of 

a win before Pat Croker came to 

the crease. 

Croker’s lofty hitting took the 

game away from South Malvern, 

belting 48 before departing just 

six runs from victory. 

Sefton won the match with an 

over to spare. 

Day two of the Lincoln v Oxford 

and Weedons v Southbrook 

matches were washed out. 

Thrilling final day likely 

HALSWELL ARE hoping for 

crucial first innings points 

against Heathcote with their 

two-day match and chances of 

winning the competition in the 

balance. 

Top of the table Halswell 

travelled to Heathcote for their 

match against the second placed 

side on Saturday. 

Heathcote won the toss and 

batted first after a delayed start 

due to morning rain. 

Whichever side finished ahead 

after the first innings would secure 

two competition points and 

with the delayed start, this could 

be important with less chance of 

an outright result. 

Halswell took a wicket in the 

first over, and then again in the 

seventh over to have Heathcote 

wobbling at 25/2. 

However, Heathcote then produced 

a 100-run partnership to 

put them on the front foot with 

the score 125/2 and 23 overs left 

in the first innings. 

Halswell worked hard and after 

the 50 overs were up, Heathcote 

had scored 256/6 with Matt 

Mealings finishing on 120 not 

out. 

Halswell got off to a flyer with 

Geoff Barclay smashing five sixes 

before he departed on 43. 

Captain Leighton Johnston 

(30) and Matt McClintock (22) 

took them to 100/1 before both 

batsmen got themselves out. At 

110/4 Matt Parr started to rebuild 

MAKING A CONTRIBUTION: Matt McClintock scored 22 in

the Halswell innings. 

At the end of the day Halswell 

were 149-4 after 34 overs, needing 

107 runs from 16 overs for 

crucial first innings points. 

Halswell have some firepower 

still to bat but much will depend 

on the experience of Parr to get 

them over the line. 

Johnston said Halswell still 

felt confident of pushing on and 

walking away with the outright 

points in what should be a good 

finish next Saturday. 

There are two rounds left in the 

competition after this match is 

completed.

a recipe for Keeping 

dogs Healthy 

Mastiff breeder and passionate animal 

lover Philippa Hanley knows from personal 

experience what dogs need to stay healthy 

and active – good nutrition. Having realised 

that supermarket dog rolls were not providing 

her dogs with sufficient nutritional content, 

and were not satisfying their hunger either, 

eight years ago Philippa decided to start 

making her own. 

“I took a standard dog roll recipe and made 

a meat loaf. I replaced the fillers that are in 

supermarket dog rolls with ‘super foods’,” 

Philippa says. 

These included hemp oil, milk powder, organic 

vitamins and minerals and amino acids, all 

of which added to the nutritional benefits 

provided by the human-grade meat Philippa 

used to make the rolls. 

Initially feeding her own dogs and supplying 

friends with the product, Philippa soon saw 

demand growing as people noticed their 

dogs’ health and energy improving, and after 

having her product nutritionally tested at 

Massey University she launched it on to the 

market. 

Based in Geraldine, Philippa first had the 

product made by the local Temuka butcher, 

but when demand outstripped the butcher’s 

ability to supply, the manufacturing was 

passed to Silver Fern Farms. 

The meat used in the rolls is mainly lamb, 

sometimes venison, plus the nutritionally rich 

organ meats from lamb, with no fillers used – 

and the dogs love it, says Philippa. 

Customers can purchase the dog rolls online 

at www.animalessentials.co.nz. They are 

available as four-roll packs – 10kg, or eight-roll 

packs – 20kg, and they are supplied in 100 

per cent recyclable poly bins, ensuring they 

are kept cool and fresh until use. 

“For a 30kg dog, the cost to feed it is only 

$1.20 a day, that’s because the dogs stay full 

and don’t feel hungry a couple of hours later,” 

says Philippa. 

While it is a totally professional operation, 

the production of Essentials dog rolls has a 

charitable end result, with a large proportion 

of the sale proceeds being donated to charity, 

such as Canterbury Dog Rescue. Philippa also 

supplies product to Dog Watch in Bromley, 

Christchurch and the Ashburton SPCA. 

With her love for animals and concern for their 

welfare, Philippa is also very involved in animal 

rescue and the support of free castration to 

help prevent dog attacks. 

Human-grade meat and no fillers 

ensure the dog rolls keep dogs full

SUNDAY SAW a good 

number of entries into 

the Ellesmere Champion 

of Champion bowls fours 

at Southbridge, with six 

teams in the men’s section 

and five in the ladies. 

The winners were the 

Lincoln men’s side and the 

Leeston ladies’ side. 

The men’s trophy was 

first presented 100 years 

ago. 

The Lincoln team 

skipped by replacement 

Lynton Withell were kept 

close by Tai Tapu in the 

early play. After seven ends 

they were 7-all. 

This was even after four 

killed ends. Neither skip 

were letting it go. The 

experience of Withell over 

Tai Tapu’s Daniel Harris 

would be a factor in the 

winning of the game 20-9 

after 15 ends. 

Earlier in the semi finals, 

Lincoln had beaten Leeston 

16-9 and Tai Tapu beat 

Diamond Harbour 17-8. 

The Lincoln team consisted 

of Withell, David 

Pugh-Williams, Graham 

Thiele and Merv Austin. 

Both the Diamond Harbour 

and Leeston ladies

managed to go one further 

than the men and made it 

to the final. 

After a good win over 

Akaroa in the first game 

Lincoln stumbled against 

Leeston in the semi final, 

going down 23-6. In the 

other semi-final it was a 

much closer game with 

Diamond Harbour edging 

out Tai Tapu 19-16. 

In the final, Leeston 

jumped out to at an 8-2 

SELWYN TIMES 

lead before Diamond Harbour 

fought back to 11-all. 

However, consistent 

bowling by the Leeston 

ladies got them over the 

line going into the last end 

14-12. They picked up a 

four on the last end to win 

18-12. 

The Leeston team 

consisted of Valami Hantz 

(skip), Marion Dixon, 

Wendy Tairoara and 

Rosita Bone.

Your guide to Show Homes & New Sections 

Maintaining a 

community feel 

in the Selwyn District 

Lincoln’s strong agricultural connection began with 

it servicing farming. In 1878, Lincoln College was 

established and the village, as it is fondly called, 

gained world recognition as a rural university town. 

For more than 100 years, the town 

experienced limited population growth, 

with little land developed for housing. 

After the Christchurch earthquakes, 

more land was opened up and Lincoln’s 

population increased significantly 

with sub-divisions such as Flemington 

offering a community lifestyle for those 

re-locating from the city. 

Lincoln’s attraction is its quiet 

village setting, rural surroundings, 

good amenities and close proximity to 

Christchurch. 

Boutique retail stores cover 

giftware, fashion, upmarket butchery, 

pharmacy, supermarket, hardware and 

a service station. There are also cafés, 

restaurants and a wine bar and high 

decile schooling – from pre-schools 

to university level. There are also 

plenty of community amenities with a 

library, churches and excellent sporting 

facilities. All are a five minute drive 

from the housing estates that line the 

town’s borders. 

“Lincoln has a strong family oriented 

community feel,” suggests Shane 

Kennedy, developer of Flemington. 

Maintaining Lincoln’s character 

has been an important goal for those 

mapping out Flemington and its success 

is evident with young families through 

to older people purchasing sections 

there. 

“Our focus has been to offer a 

quieter life for those who will live at 

Flemington. Lincoln has always been 

a lovely peaceful area to live in. We 

wanted to maintain that with a design 

that emphasises community and 

lifestyle,” says Shane who believes that 

Flemington’s blueprint will stand out as 

time goes on. 

This is reflected in the curved streets 

that encourage slow traffic speeds and 

lack of through roads, taking away the 

potential for people to shortcut through 

the sub-division. 

There are generous reserves, with 

a flexi-paved tennis court, large 

playground with basketball court 

and field for children to kick a ball; 

all centrally sited within the subdivision. 

More green space has been 

factored into future stages where 

an interconnecting walk/cycleway 

will allow residents to safely and 

conveniently move around their 

suburb, and access other parts of 

Lincoln. 

Plans for a café are also in the 

pipeline. This will be sited in the stage 

that is currently under completion and 

will link Flemington with Rosemerryn. 

Section sizes range from 500 to 850 

square metres, averaging around 700 

square metres. They are priced from 

$175,000 to $220,000 with an average 

price of $189,000. 

Shane believes the sections are at 

a good price point, explaining why 

Flemington has been well received by 

the market with steady sales. 

Of the total 620 planned lots, 240 

sections have already been sold. 

Flemington’s planning and construction 

has taken just over three years during 

which time five stages have been 

completed with the sixth currently 

under development. 

A further eight stages are planned 

for Flemington with Lincoln set to 

experience more growth in the years to 

come. 

Flemington’s planning & construction 

has taken just over three years 

Community 

& lifestyle 

have been 

emphasised in 

Flemington’s 

design.

Gardening 

Learn the art of cultivating coriander 

CORIANDER CAN be a tricky herb 

to grow. 

It has a tendency to bolt when it 

gets too warm and goes leggy and 

straggly when it gets damp. 

Once you understand the art to 

cultivating this aromatic herb it’s really 

not so tricky to grow at all. 

First of all you need to find the 

right spot to plant it. Coriander prefers 

to be in full sun or partial shade. 

Growing it in a small pot indoors 

– like on your kitchen window isn’t 

recommended. 

For the best results try planting 

your coriander seedlings in a large, 

deep pot outside or a sunny, freedraining 

area in your garden. 

This will prevent your plants 

getting damp. For the same reason, 

when you water this herb it’s important 

to do it in the morning, not the 

Tasty peas for children to grow 

SUGAR SNAP peas are tasty, easy to grow 

and perfect for planting with kids. 

Because they’re quick growing they fit 

well with the attention spans of children and 

they can be eaten straight from the garden. 

You don’t need heaps of space to grow 

these sweet tasting peas but have something 

for them to grow up like a trellis or netting. 

Once you’ve got the perfect spot to plant, 

dig in a little fertiliser or compost to give the 

seedlings a good kick-start. 

Then make a little hole and pop a seedling 

in. Plant each seedling around 20cm apart 

from the next. 

Your peas will grow in a pod like beans 

and will be ready to harvest in around eight 

to 10 weeks. 

Not sure if they’re ready? Just taste-test 

them. 

evening, so it can dry off in the sun 

during the day. 

Once your plant has got established 

remember to eat it quickly. 

If it’s not consumed fast enough it 

tends to go to seed. 

Don’t eat a lot of coriander but still 

like to have it on hand? Never fear, 

simply stagger your planting of it. 

Instead of buying several coriander 

plants at once, buy a mixed herb 

bundle. 

Two to four weeks after you 

planted the first coriander, buy another 

mixed herb bundle or pot and 

do the same. 

This means as one plant goes to 

seed another will be ready for eating. 

Plus you get a wide variety of 

other herbs to choose from in your 

garden. Each coriander will take 

three to four weeks to grow. 

EASY: Sugar snap peas grow in a pod.

Question: 

Hi there, I have a question. I’ve received a beautiful hydrangea 

as a gift and wonder whether it’s okay to be transplanted into 

the garden? 

Hydrangeas are making more of a comeback in the 

Answer: garden now, with their beautiful burst of colour paired 

with their general lower maintenance, they are a great 

option in the garden for those that don’t have as much time to spend in the garden, 

but still want the colourful display. Your hydrangea can definitely be planted out in the 

garden, it will thrive in good soil that has some organic compost and a general garden 

fertiliser in it. Before you plant out, make sure that you soak the pot in a bucket of water 

to ensure that they root ball is well-hydrated before it goes in the ground. Plant in the 

ground at the same level as the pot, in a hole twice the size as the root ball. Pop the 

plant in, and cover with the left over soil. Once you have it in the ground, make sure 

you give it a water, and keep watering it regularly until it is established in the ground. 

Fun facts about Hydrangeas 

✓ They’ll handle sun, but flowers last longest and develop better colour in light or 

dappled shade. 

✓ Keep them watered, the big leaves can dry out quickly during hot weather. 

✓ Flower colour is subjective to soil conditions. Blues are intensified by acid conditions, while alkaline 

soils favour pink and red shades. To enhance pink shades, apply lime, to encourage blue shades, 

apply ammonium or aluminium sulphate or an acid fertiliser. It may take a season or two to see the 

results you want, so be patient!

Why should I use 

fertiliser? 

Fertiliser helps plants to be able to produce fruit, flowers, 

and foliage. With vegetables that are “gross feeders” (need 

a lot of nutrients to make their produce) you will want to 

make sure they have a good supply of fertiliser through 

the growing season. It helps to create a healthier plant that 

gives you a bigger yield and larger produce.

Add vibrancy to 

your outdoor 

furniture 

Striped canvas in basic colours was 

once the norm for outdoor furniture. 

Now, a myriad of patterns and colours are 

available from vibrant bold hues to muted 

tones, allowing you to carry the theme 

and colours indoors out to your deck or 

patio. 

Outdoor chairs, stools and loungers 

can all be given a lift, or selected pieces 

upholstered in floral, geometric or 

striped designs for contrast. Create your 

own look or up-date existing furniture. 

There are loads of colours and patterns 

as well as plain fabrics to choose from, 

all scientifically created to cope with the 

harsh effects of the sun. 

With these fabrics less affected by the 

sun and water resistant, you do not need 

to worry if your outdoor furniture is left 

out over summer, only needing to tuck 

them under cover as autumn and winter 

bring damper weather. 

Maxine at Classic Curtains & Interiors 

carries a range of outdoor fabric samples 

and has access to an even larger range so 

if you have a particular concept in mind 

or have seen a fabric you like then she can 

help you source it. 

Classic Curtains & Interiors also 

offer a re-upholstery service so if you 

have a favourite chair that you would 

like restored for the indoors or outside 

then this is an ideal place to visit. The 

woodwork can be fixed up, structural 

components sorted and the chair reupholstered 

(all at the same time) so it 

looks brand new again. They also supply 

new chairs from small to large whether it 

is an armchair, wing chair or dining chair, 

along with footstools, headboards and 

sofas; all able to be covered in your choice 

of fabric. 

Currently, Maxine has three new 

chairs in store; one with a storage 

box underneath making it ideal for a 

bedroom. With an outdoor fabric, this 

chair could also be used outdoors. 

The sun’s UV rays can also affect your 

furnishings 

indoors, 

especially in 

summer when the sun is 

stronger and up for longer 

– fading curtains, drapes 

and furniture. As home 

furnishings are a serious 

investment, they deserve 

protection. Voiles and 

sunscreen blinds are a great 

way to protect your curtains, 

carpet and furniture. 

Curtain fabrics will also 

have a longer life if they 

have a block-out or soft 

block lining. These protect 

curtains from the sun while 

also keeping the heat out 

in summer, and the heat in 

during cooler weather. 

Classic Curtains & Interiors 

is Selwyn’s curtain fabric 

specialists; covering your 

home furnishing needs and 

offering a little more, such 

as their range of decoupage 

supplies for those who 

create their own cards, bags, 

designs and crafts.

New beginnings for 

local business owner 

A familiar landmark on the southern 

highway between Rolleston and Burnham 

is soon to close its doors. 

Y-Nots first began operating in 1997 

with current owner, Linda taking the 

business over in August 2015. Since then, 

Linda has enjoyed building the business 

into a successful outlet selling unique 

furniture and homeware. 

With big changes happening for Linda 

and a pending move with her husband 

to the North Island to take up a new 

farming position, she has made the hard 

call to close Y-Nots’ local retail store and 

customers are enjoying the opportunity to 

snap up a bargain. 

No doubt many Rolleston and Burnham 

locals, as well as many regular customers 

who travel from all over Christchurch to 

hunt out something unique at Y-Nots, will 

be disappointed to see this popular store 

close. 

The closing down sign outside the local 

store is not all bad news however, as Linda 

plans to continue operating Y-Nots as an 

already established Internet business and 

she may even open another retail store 

further north at some time in the future. 

“I’m excited about our new venture but 

also sad to be leaving the district,” says 

Linda. “I’ve come to know many locals 

and build a relationship with our loyal 

customers so it will be sad to lose the face 

to face contact with these lovely people.” 

Existing and new customers are 

benefitting from Linda’s pending move, 

with stock reduced in price by as much 

as 70%. There are still lots of bargains 

and with so much stock in storage, Linda 

is bringing new items out onto the shop 

floor every day. These include: handcrafted 

solid wood furniture (from buffets 

through to small tables and bookcases), 

home décor items, lamps, artwork, wall 

art, mirrors, indoor pots from small 

to very large, copper statues, incense, 

candles, jewellery, artificial flowers 

and plants, clocks, cards, cushions, 

candleholders, and original hand painted 

art on canvas; all unique and something 

different. 

“Customers have been streaming into 

the store to snap up the bargains,” adds 

Linda who advises that the final days 

of trading will be the middle of March, 

providing she has not sold out before that 

day; plenty of reasons to regularly call by. 

Linda will no longer be offering laybys 

or finance with items needing to be 

collected within three days of purchase. 

Y-Nots, is open from Tuesdays to 

Thursdays, 10am-5pm; Fridays 10am- 

3pm; and on the weekends from 10am- 

4.30pm, at 2239 Main South Road (five

Certification of gas 

installations is essential 

Gas cooking provides instant and 

consistent heat. 

In New Zealand, LPG (liquefied 

petroleum gas) is used. This needs 

sufficient ventilation and to be legal and 

fully insured, gas installations must be 

set-up by a registered and licensed gas 

fitter. 

In new homes, gas cylinders/metres are 

fitted to the exterior of the home, with gas 

fed through pipes to where it is required 

indoors. This is undertaken by a qualified 

gas fitter who provides certification that 

the work meets the legal requirements for 

gas in the home and will be required as 

part of the Code of Compliance on a new 

build. 

It is no longer compliant to fit a gas 

bottle in a cupboard under a cooktop. 

These bottles should now be located 

outside and the work required to do this 

must be carried out by a certified gas fitter 

who will then provide documentation 

supporting this, giving peace of mind and 

meaning the house is compliant should it 

be on sold. 

Selwyn Gasfitters are specialists in 

gas and plumbing installations and 

alterations. They install heat pumps, 

gas hobs or ovens, and will relocate a 

gas bottle outside. They also service 

all brands of fixed and portable gas 

appliances and are approved Bosch 

service agents. 

The added bonus of having Selwyn 

Gasfitters on the job is that they can 

also take care of the electrical side 

of any installations whether it is a 

solar system; gas water heating; or a 

hydronic underfloor heating system 

that uses heat pump, gas or oil fired 

boiler to heat the slab. 

Selwyn Gasfitters also install patio 

gas heating and can connect your 

barbecues and other outdoor gas 

appliances to your household gas 

system so you can draw on a larger gas 

supply, taking away the need to rush off 

to the local service station every time 

the 9kg bottle runs out. 

Owner, Glyn Gerrand and his team 

at Selwyn Gasfitters, which is a division 

of Property Force, are only too happy to 

advise you on efficient gas heating options 

and suggest units that fit your home’s 

aesthetics.

The advantages of solar 

Solar energy is said to be the power 

source of the future and with technology 

improving and costs decreasing, many 

people are choosing solar. 

For as little as $4,800, solar water 

heating can be installed. With the 

potential for long-term electricity savings, 

many people are selecting solar ready 

cylinders so they have the option of 

installing solar water heating at any point 

in time. 

“Many of our customers are delighted 

with their electricity savings since having 

solar water heating installed, especially 

when water heating can account for as 

much as 50% of household electricity use,” 

suggests Annemarie Duff, Marketing 

Manager of Sunshine Solar who believes 

that solar also adds value to a property. 

When the owner of Sunshine Solar, 

John Wilson installed a solar electricity 

system in his own home with a family 

of six, he saved over $200 in the first few 

weeks. 

“Our clients quickly see the return 

on their investment. They want to live 

sustainably and know they are doing the 

right thing by taking pressure off the 

wider power grid and environment,” says 

Annemarie. 

New Zealand owned and operated, 

Sunshine Solar began in 2003. John 

purchased the business in 2005 and it has 

been growing steadily ever since. 

Based locally in Yaldhurst, the 

company has installed over 2,000 solar 

systems, in residential and commercial 

buildings around New Zealand, and have 

undertaken numerous large projects. 

An example is the YHA Hostels where 

the investment has returned impressive 

electricity savings. 

Currently, most solar electricity systems 

are set up so that excess electricity, 

generated during the day is sold back 

into the grid through the home owner’s 

electricity retailer. With the introduction 

of battery storage systems, solar energy 

produced during the day is now stored by 

battery and used in the household once 

the sun goes down. 

“Solar water heating is the most popular 

because of the instant return however, 

as the price of batteries continues to 

decrease, the solar electrical systems 

will become more viable too,” adds 

Annemarie. 

“Solar hot water systems are designed 

to last twenty years. They require very 

little maintenance and have few parts that 

are easily replaceable. We do encourage 

clients to get regular maintenance checks 

however, to make sure the system is 

working efficiently.” 

Sunshine Solar, have their own team of 

registered and suitably qualified plumbers 

and trusted electrical contractors who 

can take care of installations, repairs and 

servicing of solar systems.

SELWYN TIMES 

Local nursery 

embraces changes 

When new road alignments impact 

on businesses they have two options: to 

be overwhelmed by the changes or to 

embrace them. 

With the southern motorway 

being extended through to Rolleston, 

established trees along Southern Woods 

Nursery’s road frontage have been cleared 

and the boundary realigned. This has 

presented the forty-strong team at the 

nursery with an exciting opportunity to 

re-develop and expand the business. 

The Southern Woods team have 

taken up the challenge, working hard to 

restructure the business that will combine 

their existing premises with the old 

Evergreen nursery site, to form a larger, 

purpose built nursery operation. 

The new nursery will expand to the 

corner of Robinsons and Main South 

roads, taking over the old Evergreen 

building, which is currently being 

extensively renovated. 

Southern Woods will soon be operating 

from their new premises, accessed from a 

new entrance on Robinsons Road. Their 

new purpose-built garden centre will 

offer an even larger selection of retail 

plants, tool and gardening accessories, all 

with the same level of expert service that 

customers have come to expect. There 

will also be new display gardens to inspire 

customers. 

During this time, Southern Woods 

are still open for business in the current 

garden centre. 

“The retail team are working hard to 

ensure a smooth transition between the 

two sites which is expected to take place 

in a few months’ time. At the moment 

it is business as usual,” says Marketing 

Manager, Rico Mannall. 

A new crop of summer plants is 

coming through and a good selection of 

perennials and flowering plants that will 

add colour to the garden, are already in 

stock. They also have their new crops of 

New Zealand natives that are perfect for 

late summer/early autumn planting. 

With many people now keen on 

planting edibles, Southern Woods’ 

selection of fruit trees, berry vines, 

fruits like the very popular Feijoas or 

Chilean Guavas with their lovely sweet 

berries, and pip fruits such as apples 

and pears, are all worth checking out. 

There is also a good variety of stone fruit 

including plums, which typically do well 

in Canterbury conditions, along with 

apricots and peaches. 

Citrus fruits are ripening 

at this time of year too. 

Whether it is juicy lemons 

or limes you want to add to a 

glass of water or for cooking, 

or oranges and mandarins to snack on, 

Southern Woods have them in stock. 

With autumn almost here, it is a good 

time to plant shrubs and trees in the 

garden, as long as irrigation is in place. 

A little forward planning will mean this 

task is in hand with Southern Woods’ 

massive selection of natives, of all shapes 

and sizes (including exotics), allowing you 

to add plenty of colour and character to 

your garden. 

The new Southern Woods site with 

motorway works in the background. 

Southern Woods is open 8-5 weekdays 

and 9-5 weekends. Their entrance is 

now off Robinsons Road by the corner 

of Main South Road. Contact details 

for Southern Woods are: phone 0800 

800 352; email info@southernwoods.

Ensuring a safe work place 

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.
