Good bags for
duck shooters
Greenpark resident Trent Lassen returning after
a successful morning’s hunting at the opening of
the duck shooting season on Saturday. Mr Lassen
bagged his catch at his father Terry Lassen’s pond
in Greenpark. Terry said it was a successful opening
with the weather being calm and sunny. About 100
birds were shot at the property by several hunters
over the weekend. Trent shot 16. Fish and Game
officer Steve Terry said it was reasonably quiet
around Lake Ellesmere/Te Waihora this year but
people who used private ponds did well.

fence
decision
held off
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
A DECISION over a ratepayerfunded
fence in a high country
station has been held off by the
Selwyn Waihora Zone Committee
after concerns more research
needs to be done on the project.
About five zone committee
members will travel to Cave
Stream later this month to visit
the site.
It was planned the committee
would make a final decision
on supporting the funding for
a proposed fence by Flock Hill
Holdings Ltd last Tuesday.
Environment Canterbury
proposed putting $44,236 towards
fencing off a section of Cave
Stream and associated 35ha wetlands
at the station.
It comes after an application
by Flock Hill’s leaseholder Flock
Hill Holdings, owned by Jim
Foster and Vince Saunders of Los
Angeles-based Coast Range New
Zealand.

on Flock Hill Station continues.
On page 1 today we reveal the
Selwyn Waihora Zone Committee
has held off making a
decision on plans for a $44,236
ratepayer-funded fence to section
off a part of Cave Stream
and 35ha wetlands at the station.
It was planned the committee
would make a final decision
on supporting the funding last
Tuesday.
But now committee members
will go out to Cave Stream to
inspect the area to see whether
this is money well spent – or
whether the station itself should
be paying for the fence.

Delay in fence decision
•From page 1
This was for vegetation clearance
on nearby terraces so it
could intensify grazing on the
land.
It proposed fencing off Cave
Stream as a way of mitigating
the associated loss of biodiversity
on the terraces.
The landowners
will contribute
$22,000
towards the
project.
It has since
been decided,
this decision to
Allen Lim
fund the project
using ECan’s
Immediate
Steps programme for protecting
freshwater biodiversity, is
reviewed.
Te Taumutu Runanga representative
Les Wanhalla said he
will not have an opinion until
he has seen the area.
“For me to sit in the office out
of town to say yay or nay I don’t
know what I am doing,” he said.
Zone committee chairman
Allen Lim told Selwyn Times
people are forgetting the landowners
are putting in 120ha
of farmland for conservation
which is not required.
“In my view $44,000 is a

minimal amount . . . if there is
an opportunity to protect it, I
say protect it,” he said.
But it was questioned by
residents at the zone committee
meeting last Tuesday as to what
the fence was designed to do.
Springfield resident Nicky
Snoyink asked if a proper landscape
assessment on the terraces
had been done.
“I just wondered what the
fence will enable? I noticed
the last couple of months up
here a few of the river terraces
throughout the basin had been
over-sewed, drilled,” she said.
She had concerns the fence
would give licence for the terrace
to be turned into farmland.
ECan’s land management
advisor Johannes Welsch responded
the project is focused
primarily on freshwater and
the owners would have to go
through another consent process
through the district council
to farm the terrace.
At the meeting, resident John
Summers said the leaseholders
have a stewardship responsibility
and should be funding the
project themselves.

In Brief
ROAD PROJECTS PLANNED
Three new projects will soon get
under way to improve roading
connections to the Rolleston
industrial zone. Traffic volumes in
the Rolleston industrial area have
increased by more than 200 per
cent over the past 10 years. The
projects will cost $1.9 million and
have been developed by a Roading
Strategy Group. The New Zealand
Transport Agency will fund 51
per cent of the cost of the projects,
with the remaining cost funded
through a mix of district council
and developer funding.
WEST MELTON HOUSE FIRE
Firefighters battled a house blaze
in West Melton for more than
three hours yesterday. The fire
started in the roof of a Halkett
Rd property about 11am. Six fire
crews from Kirwee, Rolleston,
Burnham and Christchurch attended
the blaze. No injuries were
reported.
WATER TREATMENT
Work to install ultra violent
treatment and water filtration
at Springfield has begun and is
expected to be completed in August.
Currently the water is treated
by chlorination. In Rolleston,
UV treatment will be installed
at Moore St and Overbury Cres.
The majority of Rolleston’s water
supplies will be treated with UV
before summer.

Siphon raises road safety concerns
Weedons
Residents
Association
Committee
secretary and
resident Gary
Doyle writes
about his
concerns on
the New Zealand Transport
Agency four laning
development between
Weedons and Hoskyns Rds
The creation of the four-laning
between Weedons and Hoskyns
Rds, have a normal (but not
required) camber at the eastern
end.
The Rolleston end actually
has a slight reverse camber. Due
to the New Zealand Transport
Agency refusing to flatten the
eastern end, a very expensive
siphon will have to be installed.
The maintenance of this will
fall back on the ratepayers. NZTA
flatly declined to lower the road,
quoting “safety reasons” but will
not discuss the reverse camber at
the Rolleston end.
Discussions have been held by
myself with NZTA, flatly refusing
to see reason but happy to
cause a very possible traffic hazard
which will occur when the
siphon clogs up, at which time
they will simply pass the buck to
the district council. I await their
public explanation.
On a slightly different note is
the lack of action with widening
both Jones and Maddisons Rds
to cope with the increase in traffic,
especially heavy traffic. This
increase coupled with the greater
usage of both roads by cyclists is
also a disaster waiting to happen.
CONCERN: The water race which will be siphoned on
Weedons Rd.
New Zealand Transport
Agency principal project
manager Geoff Griffiths
responds
The works referred to are part
of the NZTA’s Christchurch
Southern Motorway Stage 2
project (CSM2). NZTA has been
approached by Mr Doyle on a
number of occasions over recent
years regarding the changes to
Main South Rd, (State Highway
1), in the vicinity of the proposed
Weedons Rd Interchange.
We have explained the design
to Mr Doyle several times, the
latest being on March 2 this year
when I and the consultant’s design
manager met with him for
well over an hour.
He was provided with drawings
and a full explanation of the
design including the reasons for
the geometric design of the road
at Weedons and at the Rolleston
end of the project.
There is nothing unusual in
the design and it follows conventional
guidelines and standards
to ensure a safe and comfortable
driving outcome.
The need for the siphon at
Weedons was discussed at the
same meeting.
Again there is nothing unusual
in the use of a siphon to carry the
water race under a road. It was
explained that the changes to
the water race network were not
designed in isolation by NZTA
designers but in full consultation
with the Selwyn District
Council.
NZTA has designed any
changes to the water race to meet
both the district council and
NZTA requirements.
The district council and NZTA
believe that the changes to the
water race network being undertaken
as part of the CSM2 project
will result in a more resilient
network with lower maintenance
costs.
An example of this increased
resilience is the provision at
Weedons of a dual siphon rather
than a single siphon to reduce
the risk of blockage and subsequent
flooding.
Transport Agency engineers
have also presented to the
Weedons Residents Association
Committee on CSM2.
The widening of Jones Rd and
Maddisons Rd is not included in
the scope of the NZTA’s CSM2
project.
However, the installation of a
roundabout at the Weedons Ross
Rd/Jones Rd intersection and
the upgrading of both the Curraghs
Rd/Jones Rd and Dawsons
Rd/Jones Rd intersections are
included.
In respect to cyclists, NZTA and
the district council have worked
together to include in the scope of
the CSM2 project improved cycle
facilities between Rolleston and
Dawsons Rd, Templeton. These
include off-road or parallel alternative
options to Jones Rd.

Seminars planned to ease water tensions
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
A SERIES of seminars are
planned to reduce tensions
between Environment
Canterbury and residents over
how water issues in the Selwyn-
Waihora catchment are managed.
ECan’s chief scientist Tim
Davie said the seminars will be
held to provide residents information
on the Selwyn River –
the main community concerns.
Tensions came to a head at the
Selwyn Waihora Zone Committee
meeting last Tuesday over
democracy surrounding water
issues and the effects of farming
intensification.
About 20 residents took a stand
after zone committee chairman
Allen Lim complained divisions
between ECan were beginning
to emerge following a “Talk for
Water” meeting in March.
Residents were at the meeting
to support ECan councillor Lan
Pham after she made comments
at the March meeting the about
the way water is managed.
Cr Pham said while she did not
want to comment on the letter,
she supported the community.
“I completely support both
the community who came out
in support of a democratic voice
and environmental limits, and
the zone committee who have
worked tirelessly in their zone to
make the best of a complex situation,”
she said.
After the meeting Mr Lim
wrote a letter to ECan chairman
David Bedford complaining
councillors were not collaborating
together.
But Mr Lim said the letter was
not aimed at Cr Pham.
“It was about the way we work,
collaborative process means everyone
is getting together at the
table to talk things through
. . . if you have a stance where
you are not willing to compromise
it does not mesh with the
collaborative process,” he said.
In response to Mr Lim’s letter,
Mr Bedford said while the evening
was “unfortunate” but he had
no doubt different views will be
expressed by ECan councillors
on occasion.
At the meeting resident Mike
Glover told Mr Lim he was “out
of line” for complaining about Cr
Pham and the zone committee is
a democratic process.
BACKED UP: A
group of about
20 residents
attended
the Selwyn
Waihora Zone
Committee
meeting to
support ECan
councillor
Lan Pham for
speaking out
about how
water issues
are managed
in the area.
“We need to celebrate the fact
that somebody elected is putting
her hand up and saying “hey all
is not well here,” he said.
Key concerns raised were over
the Central Plains Water scheme
which could lead to intensification
of agriculture and a higher
nitrogen load going into Lake
Ellesmere/Te Waihora.
Before the 1940s it was
estimated Lake Ellesmere/Te
Waihora had about 800 tonnes
reaching it per year.
Mr Lim told Selwyn Times to
achieve 800 tonnes farmers in the
Lincoln and Rolleston townships
would need to move off the land.
“Eight-hundred tonnes was
never going to be achievable.
When people make it sound like
it is achievable that kind of annoys
me” he said.
Mr Glover told the zone
committee the nitrogen load
going into the lake needs to be
changed.
Mr Lim said he understood
Mr Glover’s concerns but a lot
of work went into deciding the
pollution limits for dairy farmers
and this was the result.
A limit has be set under Selwyn
Lake Ellesmere/Te Waihora
plan (plan change one) for nitrogen
coming from agricultural
activities with dairying required
to make a 30 per cent reduction.
Mr Glover said he did not want
to give the impression he was
against dairy farming the community
should not have to fork out for
the mass pollution taking place.
Dates and times for the seminars
are yet to be confirmed.

WHEN EMMA Yates lost her
grandmother to breast cancer,
she inherited her collection of
china crockery.
The Rolleston resident will use
the collection when she hosts
a Pink Ribbon afternoon tea
on May 21 to raise money and
awareness for the Breast Cancer
Foundation New Zealand.
Ms Yates said her grandmother,
Lerline Morris lost her battle
with the disease. She was 57.
“The one thing that’s special
to me is that the china has her
initials on the bottom that she’s
done in nail varnish.”
Mrs Morris painted her initials
so when she took it to her
women’s division functions, she
would know they were hers, Ms
Yates said.
Ms Yates, now 39, had two
fibroadenoma lumps removed
when she was 29 and 31, and
goes for a check up every year
now.
She said it was so important
for women of any age to be
aware of the breast cancer symptoms
and to get checked.
“I think a lot of people think it
will never happen to them.”

Lyndal Marshall
Driving force behind Waikirikiri Sport
Lyndal Marshall, 44, of Rolleston, is behind the
new Waikirikiri Sport club which aims to make
hockey more accessible to Selwyn residents. She
spoke to Georgia O’Connor-Harding
INNOVATIVE: Lyndal Marshall
is the driving force behind
Waikirikiri Sport, a club which
aims to promote hockey in
Selwyn.
What made you decide to set
up Waikirikiri Sport?
It was a combination of things
that all came together at the
same time. Canterbury Hockey
had a hockey growth project to
look at the numbers of people in
the area playing hockey. Hockey
New Zealand introduced a
new New Zealand Post Small
Sticks strategy for its junior
programme. And that meant
all junior games were six-aside
games so they could be played
on half the turf. And then the
district council was developing
Foster Park and the half turf
facility had room there. So a
combination of all those three
things came together and there
was demand from people in the
Selwyn district looking for a
place to play hockey. Up until
now, people had to join clubs in
the city
How strong did you think
hockey was in Selwyn before
the club was set up?
There was a demand for
it. The club gives people the
opportunity to play. Prior to
Waikirikiri being formed, it
is only really the parents who
have played themselves or
families that have made that
effort to go into the city to train.
So now, with having a facility
in Rolleston, it becomes an
opportunity for more families to
fit in that training time locally.
You have a good team of
people running the club?
We have had an amazing
group. From the outset, I asked
people what were their interests
and passions. We have asked
people to get involved in the area
they are interested in. So they
have a positive experience on the
committee and running the club
and, therefore, we can expect
participants and parents to have
a positive experience with the
club because all the committee
are happy doing jobs that they
like. We have found people that
like database work, we have
found people that like health and
safety work.
Is the club fully established
yet?
Last Saturday, our kids started
playing, so we were officially
established from then. We have
registered 13 six-aside teams,
which will start playing on
Saturday. We have got enough
players to field those teams, but
we have more room for a couple
more kids in different age groups
to fill the squads.
You must have put in a fair
amount of planning to get this
club set up. When did you first
get the idea?
Nine months we have been
working on this. Most of us on
the original committee have
carried on, which is great. The
interesting thing is, the people
involved in getting the club
set up haven’t necessarily got
children playing hockey. They
are just passionate and their efforts
are helping other families
not necessarily their own. We
firmly believe the success for the
club is through coaching so we
are putting a huge emphasis on
coach development to ensure the
players have a good experience.

bringing turf hockey to the masses
You have several plans for the
club?
We were given permission
to be a junior club for hockey.
We are looking at building to a
fully affiliated club with senior
teams. We have got some people
involved that will be key in the
senior club. We have a memorandum
of understanding with
Lincoln University to help us.
Hockey is such a big part of
your life, when did you start
out?
My parents played hockey.
My mother was president of the
Horowhenua women’s hockey
association back in the day. My
sister played hockey and I started
playing when I was 11 and I
played right through to when I
had my children at the age of 30.
Then I came out of retirement
and played more recently before
retiring again.
Are you missing the game?
You would like to be out there
playing but it is that time to
commit to the family and the
club. And I kept injuring myself.
What has been your biggest
achievement as a hockey player?
I was awarded Hockey
Manawatu senior women’s player
of the year in 1996 and went
to Holland to represent New
Zealand at the International
Masters Hockey Association
World Cup in 2014. We didn’t
do as well as we had hoped but it
was an amazing experience. We
loved Holland – it is the home
of hockey. They are super passionate
about hockey, so at the
same time while we were over
there, the hockey World Cup was
on. The highlight of that was we
went to watch the Black Sticks
play. There were about 15,000
people watching this game of
CHALLENGE: Lyndal Marshall
representing New Zealand
at the masters hockey World
Cup.
hockey.
What other sports have you
played?
Soccer when I was younger.
I also played tennis and did
swimming, but hockey was my
Saturday sport.
What do you think of Canterbury
hockey as a whole?
Canterbury hockey is a really
well-organised sport. The club
structure goes right down to year
1 (five-year-old children). You
can go right through to being a
top Canterbury premier league
player. There is a good pathway,
but you can also join at different
levels. The representative teams
perform really well nationwide.
It is a strong province.
Is there a young hockey player
we should be keeping an eye on?
For us, 70 per cent of our players
are new to hockey so that is
an unknown quantity to us. We
are hoping to create some passionate
hockey people. But at this
stage of the club, we are involved
in getting people participating
and performing well.
Did you ever look up to anyone
when you were growing up?
No not really. I just got out
there and got involved and
enjoyed it.
What do you like doing in
your spare time?
I have a family with a husband
and three kids. My husband also
coaches my son’s rugby team and
I am coaching one of my daughter’s
hockey teams. We both help
out with touch rugby in the summer.
So it is just keeping the kids
active and taking the boat down
to the lake.
Are your children interested
in hockey?
My two girls play hockey and
my son plays rugby, but he is
pretty good at hockey so hopefully
he will play in our social
group. Waikirikiri has got social
competitions running for kids
on Monday nights so, if they are
already playing sport, they can
give hockey a go. It gives them
an opportunity to play without
impacting their primary sport.

at Foster Park, is looking for
more players aged between
five and 13 years-old. For

“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.

A reader responds to last
week’s Selwyn Times’
article on a proposal
for a new Returned and
Services Association to be
established in Rolleston
Lawrence Mitten – While
the Templeton RSA rooms on
Kirk Rd are useful, it makes a
good deal of sense to move the
Templeton RSA to Rolleston.
Moving the Canterbury Regiment
Association’s history centre
from Burnham to a new RSA at
Rolleston is a fantastic idea and
needs further promotion.
The current Christchurch
RSA is failing and is struggling
to make ends meet. The history
centre has some fantastic displays
and much memorabilia. If
this project is done correctly, and
I have no doubt that it will be,
then Canterbury will have the
first military museum combined
with an RSA in the South Island.
This will be an opportunity for
the history centre’s curators to
gather up the many thousands of
items of memorabilia which are
throughout the South Island.
Visitors can combine a visit
to the Rolleston RSA clubrooms
and a visit to the Rolleston history
centre, and, prior or after,
a visit to the Air Force Museum
of New Zealand in Wigram – a
wonderful outing.
The South Island, and Canterbury
in particular, has paid a
PLANS: Support to move the Templeton RSA to Rolleston is growing. (Right) – A reader calls for the banning of freedom campers.
heavy price in lost sons during
the wars New Zealand has been
involved in since the Boer War.
We must preserve their
memory and sacrifice.
A memorial museum would go
a long way to achieve this. Burnham
Military Camp, which is
about 6km from Rolleston will
supply a number of members,
both serving soldiers and returned
veterans from the recent
deployments from the Middle
East.
The New Zealand Defence
Force is closing the Waiouru
Military Camp shortly and the
army is moving to Burnham and
will become the central pivot
for the army throughout New
Zealand. This is a golden opportunity
for the Templeton RSA.
A reader responds
to last week’s Selwyn
Times’ article on freedom
camping
David Taylor – Very simple
. . . keep it black and white. Do
we want second tier tourists who
add little, and cost New Zealanders
heavily?
Simple answer is no.
Do we want high quality tourists
who add value? Yes.
Ban freedom campers period.
Make people stay in Department
of Conservation camps or normal
camping grounds.
Not fair that campground
owners invest and provide a
good service.
Why should people camp essentially
where they like.
This country attracts tourists
based on our clean image
and the beauty we have . . . keep
this up and no one will want to
come to New Zealand which will
just be another trashed filthy
country like so many others.
If tourism is managed properly
and if we invest heavily into
infrastructure it can work. But
typical of all governments and at
local level too – they are reactive
and lazy rather than be proactive
and anticipate likely outcomes
before they happen.
Our politicians and councillors
are too self-serving and interested
more in keeping their jobs
than do the hard yards necessary
to protect what we have, but for
how long as the environment is
being severely compromised all
in the name of money.
As a New Zealander I’m far
from happy the way we are being
sold out.
Like the state of our waterways,
it’s a disgrace.
Clean and green is the biggest
con. New Zealanders will soon
wake up, as the will the rest of
the world, that the country is a
rort.
We invest too much on marketing
how great we are. I only
wish so much effort and money
went into protecting what we
have for future generations . . .
sustainability springs to mind.

Glitz and glamour of the Roaring 20s
IT WAS back to the Roaring
20s as Lincoln University
students celebrated their hard
work with a night of revelry at
The Tannery.
Nearly 500 students graduated
from the university and
dressed up for a 1920s-themed
graduation ball inspired by
The Great Gatsby.
The event organised by the
Lincoln University Students’
Association and 360 Degree
Events featured live entertainment
with performances from
band Shadow Puppet and
1920s dancing girls.
Red carpets, an automatic
Polaroid printing machine,
complementary drinks,
cheesecake, brownies were all
on the agenda for the evening.
LUSA spokeswoman Julia
Wills said it was one of the
best events the association
had organised.
“It just went so smoothly
and everybody had positive
feedback about it . . . I think
the venue itself helped,” she
said.

Water treatment
upgrades underway
Make a switch to save money
Did you know that by switching from a large rubbish bin, to a smaller
rubbish bin and organics bin you could be rewarded for creating less
waste by saving money?
If you have a large 240 litre rubbish bin but barely fill the bin each
week, or you fill it with mostly garden waste, you may want to
consider moving to a smaller 80 litre rubbish bin and taking up a 240
litre organics bin. The annual costs for different types of rubbish,
recycling and organic services are shown below.
Rubbish (Red lid, optional), emptied weekly
· 240 litre wheelie bin, per year $395
· 80 litre wheelie bin, per year $121
· 60 litre rubbish bag, recommended price $2 per bag
Recycling (Yellow lid, compulsory), emptied fortnightly
· 240 litre wheelie bin, per year $63
· Two 60 litre crates, per year $63 (for off route properties only)
Organics (lime green lid, optional), emptied weekly
· 240 litre wheelie bin (where service is available), per year $210
If you would like to change your bin size, you can do so by visiting
www.selwyn.govt.nz/helpline or by calling 347 2800 or 318 8338.
Council rubbish bags can be purchased from Council libraries
and service centres, Rolleston, Lincoln and Halswell New World,
Countdown Rolleston, Darfield and West Melton Four Square, Fresh
Choice Leeston, West Melton BP and Pak n Save Hornby. Bags
from Council Service centres and libraries cost $2 per bag, but the
price may vary at other locations where the price is set by retailers.
Improvements to a number of Council water treatment systems are under way this year.
Work to install UV treatment and filtration at Springfield has begun and is expected to be
completed in August 2017. Currently the water is treated by chlorination.
In Rolleston, UV treatment will be installed at Moore Street where two bores are sited and at
Overbury Cresent. The majority of Rolleston’s water supplies will be treated with UV disinfection
before this summer. UV treatment systems will also be installed at Sheffield and Hororata by the
end of the year. The installation of UV will provide an additional level of water treatment.
Dunsandel, Kirwee, Lake Coleridge, West Melton and the three bores in Izone which service much
of Rolleston’s town water supply are already UV treated. This treatment method uses ultraviolet
light to kill microorganisms like bacteria, viruses, molds and other pathogens.
Currently, the Council uses a variety of water treatment methods for our 30 water supplies and
all supplies have Water Safety Plans approved by Canterbury District Health Board which set out
water treatment standards. Treatment methods used in various supplies include secure ground
water (to meet New Zealand Drinking Water Standards), UV and filtration, and chlorination of the
Acheron, Castle Hill, Dalethorpe, Hororata and Springfield supplies.
Explore Selwyn – Lake Coleridge township
Lake Coleridge is one of Selwyn’s hidden spots which offers spectacular views of the mountains on
your way there and great views of the Rakaia River.
A short walk begins from a lookout point over the Rakaia River. A pathway follows the course of the
tailrace through bush to reach the Lake Coleridge Power Station. The building was New Zealand’s first
large power station and was built between 1911 and 1914. The imposing hydo-electric station provided
all of Christchurch’s power in the early twentieth century. When you reach the station you can either
return back along the path or walk through the village and turn back down Kowai Road.
Another walking option in the village is to visit the Lake Coleridge Arbouretum which is a 1km, 20
minute walk accessible from Hummock Hill Road. The village is located around 3km from the lake
which offers more walking and sightseeing opportunities.
Time/Distance: 20 minutes,
just over 1 km.
Difficulty: Easy. Not suitable
for buggies, wheelchairs
or pre-school children as
the path is located next to
the river bank which has a
steep cliff
How to get there: To access
the lookout walk you can
park outside the Lake
Coleridge cemetery and
walk towards the gorge.
Lake Coleridge is located off
Coleridge Road from State
Highway 77 and is around
1 hour, 15 minutes from
Rolleston or 50 minutes
from Darfield.
Building Boom Continues in
Selwyn
While there appears to be a slowdown in building activity in some
parts of the country, Selwyn is still experiencing high volumes of
building consent applications. Applications received in the last
couple of months are comparable to the volumes experienced in
2014. Due to the high volumes, consent processing timeframes
have pushed out beyond what customers have become
accustomed to. Additional resources have been engaged to help
with consent processing to bring the timeframes back to our usual
standard as quickly as possible.
If you have lodged a building consent yourself you can check its
progress online using the AlphaOne system. Your construction firm
or builder can monitor this for you if they have lodged the consent
on your behalf. For any assistance with this contact our Building
Advisory Team on bca@selwyn.govt.nz.
When lodging your application please ensure that your application
has all relevant information supplied. Our website has two
checklists to assist you – a residential and a commercial and
industrial checklist. These are available online at www.selwyn.govt.
nz/buildingforms.
Once your consent has been issued and building work is underway
please ensure that your contractors only book an inspection when
they are fully ready for it to be undertaken. This will avoid a reinspection
being required and save you additional costs. For more
details of what our team check at each inspection type please refer
to the inspection prompt sheets which can be located at
www.selwyn.govt.nz/buildinginformation.

Road widening is occurring on Jones Road between Weedons Ross Road and the Lyttelton Port
Company until mid-June. The road will remain open, but may be reduced to one lane at times with
traffic delays expected. This work is occurring now in order to be completed prior to the NZ Transport
Agency starting work on a new Motorway interchange at Weedons Ross Road. Maddisons Road is
suggested as an alternative route to Jones Road at peak times.

Sections of Weedons Ross Road between State Highway One and Jones Road, and Weedons Road
between State Highway One and Levi Road are closed both ways to traffic. A closure will also be in place
on Weedons Road from Main South Road through to Levi Road. The closures are to allow cables to be
laid as part of the Christchurch Southern Motorway extension project. Detours will be clearly sign-posted.
There will be changes to the traffic management at Waterholes Road (between 865 Waterholes Road
and the intersection of Waterholes Road and Hamptons Road) to allow for some work in preparation for

WORLD STAGE: Jacob Douglas (front) has raced his way to Italy after claiming a national title last
month.

than four seconds ahead of his nearest rival.

Young kart racer dreams of formula one
• By Gordon Findlater
LINCOLN’S JACOB Douglas
will take on the world’s best in
October as he takes the next
step in his dream of driving in
formula one.
Jacob, 11, started racing just
three years ago and has now
secured his spot at the International
Rok Cup finals in Italy by
dominating at the Kartsport NZ
National Sprint Championships
in Invercargill last month.
He won the Vortex Mini ROK
class, winning his heat races
before going onto win the final
by more than four seconds.
“The competition was pretty
stiff down there with a lot of
good drivers,” said Jacob.
He previously raced motorcycles
but after spending a day at
the track with his father in 2014
he decided it was time to sell the
bike after finding his passion on
four wheels.
“We were hopeful that we
SPORTS
would win, we knew we had a
fair chance and we had trained
for all scenarios. Jacob had
broken the lap record at the track
only weeks before so we also
knew we were fast,” said Jacob’s
father Craig Douglas.
Trained by Matthew Hamilton
of WKS Kartstore and Tiffany
Chittenden, Douglas is a boy
who wants to go places. He lives
and breathes motor racing and
is passionate about making his
mark on a world stage.
Jacob trains at the KartSport
Canterbury track on the corner
of Carrs and Wigram Rds up to
four times a week. His dedication
to chasing the formula one
dream even involves occasionally
taking time out of school.
“I don’t think they particularly
like that but they’re quite supportive
of my racing,” said Jacob.
In Italy he will drive for the
OTK Kart Group, whose former
drivers include seven-time
formula one world champion
Michael Schumacher.
In a country that punches
above its weight in motorsport,
Jacob Douglas is a name to watch
out for. Not only does he have
the technical skill to succeed, but
the mental strength required to
get to the top.

Backyard critters
SELWYN TIMES
South African mantis invades Lincoln
Mike Bowie is
an ecologist
who specialises
in entomology
(insects
and other
invertebrates).
Each week he introduces
a new species found in his
backyard at Lincoln. His
column aims to raise public
awareness of biodiversity,
the variety of living things
around us
THE SPRINGBOKS are
invading Lincoln, but not the
rugby variety. The South African
praying mantis (miomantis
caffra) is invading New Zealand
and has reached Lincoln as it
disperses south.
The invader is thought to have
arrived in Auckland around 1978
and is spreading north to south.
Trouble is, the bok mantis
appears to be eating our
native species, orthodera
novaezealandiae, and there are
serious concerns that our native
species is being displaced.
Our native males are being
attracted to the female bok
mantis only to be eaten.
So how do you tell the
difference between the two
mantis species?
Our native mantis has a large
blue-purple dot on the inside of
its forelegs and the exotic bok
mantis doesn’t.
The second distinguishing
feature is the width of the neck of
the two species.
The native mantis has a wide
neck close to the width of its
body, whereas the bok mantis
has a neck markedly narrower
TAKING OVER: The South
African praying mantis
(miomantis caffra) has
reached Lincoln and is eating
native species.
than its head.
Like the adults, the egg
cases (ootheca) also look quite
different between the species.
The native egg cases are brown
in colour and have a figure of
888888-pattern when looking
from above.
When these are freshly laid
(usually in autumn), the holes
have a white waxy covering that
seals the eggs inside.
When the young mantis’
hatch in spring, the white seal
is broken, exposing the 888888
holes.
The bok ootheca looks like a
mini meringue and has a tapered
end.
Should we be concerned about
this invasion?
Well, Auckland entomologist
Greg Holwell thinks so.
He has been studying the
ecology of the two species for 10
years and has noticed a dramatic
increase in the bok mantis at the
expense of our native one.

Travel
More to Rarotonga than the beaches
• By Mike Yardley
PLANNING an escape to
Rarotonga?
Tear yourself away from the
beach to dig a little deeper at the
roots of the island. Venture along
the back road and enter a timeless
world of free-range harmony in
abundance.
On my various forays along the
back road, I feasted on freshlyplucked
pawpaw, mango, guava,
bananas and star-fruit, bursting
from the roadside trees.
Scenically insatiable, I marvelled
at the colourfully-painted
hinterland homes and the dense
plantations, bracketed by Rarotonga’s
serrated peaks which
exude a Jurassic Park aura.
There are many ways to get
a flavour for Rarotonga’s vast
green heart, including taking a
ride with the recently launched
Tik-e Tours. These tropical
three-wheeler luxury tuk-tuk
limousines are fully electric, so
unlike the racket they make on
the streets of Bangkok, these
beauties will glide you around
Rarotonga’s ravishing interior in
virtual silence.
My driver/guide was a worldly
elder called Mata, a natural and
charismatic raconteur. Throughout
my tour, every passer-by
warmly waved out to Mata, or
stopped to chat. One chap we
talked to was busy cultivating
noni fruit by hand.
Lauded by locals for centuries
for its numerous health benefits,
noni juice has taken the world by
storm and is the Cook Islands’
No 1 agricultural export product.
My two-hour tour traversed a
slew of insights, including stops at
TROPICAL: Ikurangi’s foliage is typical of the Rarotongan hinterland. Right – Shower in the open air at the Ikurangi Eco-Retreat.
ancient marae sites, a rendezvous
with Government House, the
magnificently carved new war
memorial in honour of the 500
local soldiers who fought in
World War 1, Tinomana Palace
and the sacred Great Migration
site of Avana Passage.
Operating for just over a year,
the people behind Tik-e Tours
are Cook Islander Tania Farman
and her husband, Karl, who
have swapped corporate life in
Auckland for the Rarotongan
lifestyle, while injecting an
innovative and eco-friendly
tourism product into the mix.
www.tik-etours.com
For more heartland hi-jinks
I jumped behind the wheel of a
Rarotonga Buggy Tour. These
grunty off-road vehicles are a
cross between a kart and a beach
buggy, highly manoeuvrable and
hardy.
They’re even kitted out with roll
cages if it all goes badly wrong.
These wildly popular buggy
tours have been making quite a
splash for two years. Our conga
line of yellow buggies looked
like a slithering giant snake. The
biggest mud pits awaited us at the
site of ill-fated and abandoned
Sheraton Hotel development,
where the grounds have been
reworked as an off-road buggy
track, which is where I got utterly
splattered in mud, as we ripped
up and down the mounds of the
track.
Our touring route also romped
into the hinterland and the
Turangi Valley, thickly carpeted
with tropical rainforest. Seriously
good fun if you like to get down
and dirty. www.rarobuggytours.
com
Swathed in jungle-like tropical
foliage, the environmentallyfriendly
embrace of Ikurangi Eco-
Retreat is a winning new roost in
Rarotonga.
Established by Luana and Matt
Scowcroft last year, this thoughtfully
created offering treads a very
light footprint. You’ll notice the
sustainability elements wherever
you turn.
The toilets are self-composting,
the beautiful toiletries by Ashley
& Co are studiously organic, the
natural and biodegradable cleaning
products, a sustainable waste
management system, all materials
are sustainably sourced and
there’s free use of bicycles to go
exploring.
Being uber-boutique, the experience
is absolutely distinctive,
personalised and ultra-attentive.
Luana says: “We think of it as a
unique combination of the allure
of a safari with the romance of the
South Seas, where luxury meets
sustainability.”
I loved sleeping in my luxury
safari tent, stunningly furnished,
and perched on a deck to allow
airflow.
A tropical breakfast was
delivered to my deck each
morning and I adored the
locally-roasted, fair trade plunger
coffee.
I awoke each morning to the
“Tail of the Sky,” Mt Ikurangi,
gilded in the glow of the rising
Rarotongan sun, and I revelled
in the novelty of showering in
the open-air bathroom, flanked
by swaying palms and bountiful
banana trees.
FAST FACTS
•Set amid the bountiful
hinterland beauty, but just
minutes from the beach,
Ikurangi Eco-Resort is a
masterclass in sustainable
hospitality in paradise. Five
per cent of Ikurangi Eco
Retreat profits go to local
conservation initiatives.
www.ikurangi.com
I do love how Rarotonga
is replete with colourful
roadside stalls brimming
with freshly picked produce
and alluring treats, like
organic fruit ice cream.
They directly help villagers
supplement their incomes.
It’s a great way to give back.

Gardening
SELWYN TIMES
Rid your lawn of nasty weed
WHAT EXACTLY is a weed?
Definitions abound, but a
weed is generally considered
to be a plant that’s growing
where it isn’t wanted. And, as
winter draws near to an end, it
often seems that the weeds are
about to take over the entire
garden.
Onehunga weed, which
usually causes problems in
lawns, is one of the weeds you’ll
find starting to develop at this
time of year.
Onehunga weed is a soft,
ferny-leafed plant that only
reveals the nasty side of its
nature when it produces its
sharply-barbed seeds.
These can make walking on
the lawn in bare feet an utter
misery.
You can remove Onehunga
weed with what’s called a
selective weedkiller but,
remember, if the weed has
already formed its spiky seeds,
it’s sure to re-appear next year.
Make a note to begin control
earlier next season.
Selective herbicides cleverly
remove the non-grass weeds
from the lawn, without
damaging the grass.
However, it’s vitally important
to read the label and carefully
follow the instructions. Tooheavy
applications will burn the
grass.
Many other lawn weeds such
as clover, dandelions, thistles
and capeweed – can also
be removed with a selective
weedkiller.
Weeds in garden beds can
be removed using a glyphosate
herbicide.
Glyphosate is non-selective,
which means it will kill any plant
material it contacts.
This, obviously, means it
must be applied with great care.
Fortunately, though, it doesn’t
leave residues in the soil.
PROBLEM: Don’t let Onehunga weed take root in your lawn.

Beautiful broad beans
• By Henri Ham
I KNOW it’s easy and not too
expensive to buy broad beans at
the supermarket, but I enjoy eating
them fresh from the garden.
They taste great and it’s nice
knowing exactly what’s taken
place during the growing process.
Broad beans are one of my
favourite varieties to grow.
Like most other vegetables,
you can grow broad beans from
seed (actually it’s the bean itself).
But I recommend growing from
seedlings.
Doing this shortens the time
before harvest (around six less
weeks) but, more importantly,
takes out a lot of the hard work.
Once the root systems are well
formed (yet still separate from
each other), almost guaranteed
they will grow well.
Once you’ve got your seedlings,
you need to find somewhere to
grow them. I like to grow mine
in a raised vegetable garden, but
they also grow well in pots. Make
sure it’s full sun or partial shade
where you plant.
Broad beans are pollinated by
bees, so it’s helpful to grow them
near a bee-friendly plant like lavender,
rosemary or cornflowers.
It pays to check the pH level
FRESH: Broad
beans like full
sun or just
partial shade.
of your soil. Broad beans like the
soil to be around 5.5 to 6.5pH.
Not sure what the pH level of
your soil is? Most garden centres
sell kits, alternatively there are
also companies which will test
your soil for a small fee.
If the pH level of your soil
could go higher, try adding a
little bit of lime from your local
garden centre. If you’re not sure
of the pH level, it wouldn’t hurt
to add a little bit of lime anyway.
Then simply dig a little hole
and plant each seedling around
15cm apart in rows approximately
30cm apart.
Once the plants are around
1m you can stake them individually
but I prefer to put a stake at
either end of the rows and loop
a big piece of string around the
whole lot to keep them growing
together. Your plants will lean
against each other and grow
across the ground.
The seedlings will take around
eight to 12 weeks from planting
to produce beans ready for
harvesting.
Harvest the beans when the
pods are around 75-100mm.
How to plant a fruit tree
NOW IS a good time to get
those fruit trees planted.
Here are some tips:
•Dig a hole that is slightly
deeper than the root depth and
which allows for 20cm clearance
around the roots.
•Mix some compost with the
soil in the base of the hole, then
place the tree and slow release
fertiliser in the hole so that the
graft is above soil level.
•Create a small mound at the
base of the hole and spread the
roots out carefully.
•Before back filling, position
tree stakes. Partly back fill and
firmly compact.
•Continue back filling and compact
once or twice more.
•Water well.
•Stake securely to ensure root
zone can’t move on windy days.
Bare rooted trees bought must
not be left for roots to dry.
•Plunge in water prior to planting
to ensure the roots are moist
prior to planting.

Feeding pets the right food helps keep
them healthy and in good condition.
“Cats and dogs are carnivores, born to
eat real meat and not dog biscuits that are
full of grains,” says Bernie owner of Real
Petfood in Rolleston.
Real Petfood sells a wide range of top
quality pet meat products, all at extremely
competitive prices. Their meat is absolutely
natural with no additives, preservatives or
fillers whether fresh or frozen raw mutton,
beef, horse, chicken or rabbit. They have
pet mince, steak pieces, puppy mixes,
meaty bones, tripe and brisket bones.
The birds are not forgotten either, with a
selection of seed mixes available, including
wild bird seed and bird feeders. There
are also mixes for pet guinea pigs, rats
and mice and a small selection of animal
paraphernalia.
Real Petfood’s dog mixes of beef, horse
and mutton are very popular. These come
in a range of sizes, from 500gram bags
through to 25kg lots of free flow bags.
“Horse meat is non-allergenic so vets
often prescribe it for dogs that react to
beef,” explains Bernie who also advises
that only raw mutton must be frozen
before feeding to a dog.
Real Petfood sources its meat from local
farmers and processes it in their own
abattoir, ensuring fresh meat each day.
Their frozen free-flow packs offer
convenience. Just take out what you need
and defrost in a microwave when you get
home; leaving a meaty bone to entertain
the dog while away at work.
Real Petfood has five staff sourcing,
processing and selling pet meat in handy
sized packs that are available direct to
customers from their Rolleston outlet with
free delivery available to customers (in and
around Rolleston) who spend over $70.
You will also be able to order on-line soon.

Driven
Mitsubishi gives ASX a fresh face
• By Ross Kiddie
MITSUBISHI Motors New
Zealand has been busy over the
last 12 months.
A raft of facelifted models has
landed, a new Outlander, Mirage
and ASX are now on dealers’
showroom floors. Each has a significantly
different appearance,
and I’ve covered the changes in
recent evaluations.
The last in my schedule to
drive was the ASX, an acronym
for active smart crossover, and
while the changes aren’t major
they certainly provide a fresher
exterior look, giving it more of a
Mitsubishi family appearance.
The interior has enhanced
specification features and a bit of
tidy up to make it more comfortable,
it also gets extra technical
gadgets to make it more functional
and user-friendly.
That along with a revised lineup
– now there are only four
models – the ASX is destined
to be a strong competitor in the
mid-size sport utility vehicle market,
landing from just $36,690.
The test car was the VRX, twowheel-drive,
2-litre at $40,590.
Petrol-power will get you into
front-wheel drive only; if you
want four-wheel-drive you are
locked into the 2.3-litre diesel
variants listing at $41,990 and
$45,990 (VRX).
MITSUBISHI ASX: Fresh look with a Mitsubishi family appearance.
The ASX follows in the wheel
tracks of the SUV Outlander and
takes on board many of the elements
which have made it so successful,
albeit in a smaller size.
In VRX specification the level of
fitment sits towards high. For that
money it comes well equipped
with full leather trim and heated
front seats, dash-mounted display
screen with rear view reversing
camera, keyless entry and ignition,
cruise control, comprehensive trip
computer, and all the safety kit
to earn it a five-star Australasian
New Car Assessment Program
safety rating.
Under the bonnet lies a 1998cc,
16-valve, twin-camshaft engine.
It is much the same unit which
powers Lancer and stands out
for its relatively high power
output (112kW) and strength
low down, courtesy of a 200Nm
torque figure. Together the power
and torque outputs combine to
provide strong mid-range performance,
easily cutting out a
120km/h from 80km/h overtaking
time in 6sec. For the record, it
will also launch from a standstill
to 100km/h in 9.9sec.
Just like the Lancer, the ASX
drives out of a six-step continuously
variable transmission.
That’s no surprise, Mitsubishi
have embraced CVT transmission
and it has worked well with
Outlander and Lancer. In the
ASX it is equally as efficient, taking
the load off the engine and
helping promote respectable fuel
• Price – Mitsubishi ASX VRX,
$40,590
• Dimensions – Length,
4355mm; width, 1810mm;
height, 1640mm
• Configuration – Fourcylinder,
front-wheel-drive,
1998cc, 112kW, 200Nm,
continuously variable
automatic
• Performance –
0-100km/h, 9.9sec
• Fuel usage – 7.4l/100km
usage results.
In the VRX variant, steering
wheel-mounted paddles provide
the driver with a manual sequential
function. They will lock the
transmission into six pre-set
gearing steps to provide optimum
performance and engine braking
on hill descent.
Interaction between the engine
and gearbox is constantly reactive,
engine response is crisp, yet
it is docile and ambles along at
city speeds working the lower
part of the rev band to meet fuel
efficiency expectation.
According to Mitsubishi, the
ASX in two-wheel-drive form
will return a combined cycle
average of 7.4-litres per 100km
(38mpg). My time with the test
car constantly listed around
10l/100km (28mpg) with a
7l/100km (35mpg) figure available
at a constant 100km/h in the
tallest part of the gearing (engine
speed 1800rpm). They are satisfactory
figures and don’t come at
the cost of engine performance.
The ASX feels lively beneath
the throttle and will respond to
accelerator request instantly as
the power is gathered up by the
CVT belt.
I took the test car inland
between the two gorge bridges.
The piece of road in-between
provides a good mix of corners,
the ASX isn’t bothered when
placed quickly into a bend, the
suspension soaks up uneven road
surfaces and gravitational movement
is arrested smoothly.
When the ASX is presented
with a bit of a handling challenge
not only does it cope capably, it
imparts a comfortable in-cabin
sensation for the occupants. The
seats are well formed, especially
the rears which have had a bit of
an upgrade, also the entire construction
technique doesn’t jeopardise
the SUV concept.
Space on board isn’t overwhelming
but it is adequate, for
three in the rear it’s no squeeze,
each has just the right amount of
leg and shoulder room.
The ASX is there for those
who want to be part of the SUV/
crossover experience, and it will
fulfil that role admirably.

HIGH SCHOOL OPEN DAYS
Lincoln High School
Lincoln High School
As we head toward the mid part of the year, those parents with year 8 pupils will be
looking at secondary school choices for their child in 2018.
Open days are a great opportunity not only for parents to see what the school can
offer but also give prospective students a chance to familiarise themselves with the
surroundings and learn about the options available to them.
Lincoln High School values lifelong
learning, respect, pride and doing good
for others. These are very evident in the
classroom and around the school. The
students are friendly and respectful of
others. The highly trained staff work
alongside students to ensure everyone
seeks to be the very best they can be.
The school has over 1600 students
from a number of different cultures and
backgrounds. Each student is valued for
what they bring to the school. The school
encourages individuality and excellence
in academic, cultural and sporting
interests. There is a highly functioning
School Council, a Junior Council and a
competitive House System.
Lincoln High School believes
participation in extra-curricular activities
is an important part of every student’s
growth and development. Students
are encouraged to be involved in the
performing arts opportunities and the
many successful sporting teams.
Lincoln High School seeks the highest
good in all that it does and aims to see
its students leave as lifelong learners as a
result of having positive and rewarding
experiences.
The open day for Lincoln High School
is on Thursday 18 May between 4pm and
6pm.
Rolleston College
The newest of the secondary schools,
Rolleston College will be offering a new
intake of year 9 students in 2018. The
school is slightly different as it goes
through the five years of transition until it
has a full year 9-13 allocation in 2021 with
next year’s roll only incorporating year 9
and 10 students.
This future focused and inclusive
secondary school provides a learnercentered
education for the rapidly growing
wider Rolleston community. Its aim is to
provide a challenging and empowering
learning environment, to develop the skills,
knowledge and characteristics necessary
to enable its learners to shape their lives,
develop communities and transform their
futures.

Ellesmere College Te Kareti o Waihora
Ellesmere College is a friendly, familyfocused
school, with a caring, inclusive
culture. Our aim is to have engaged
students who are enabled to excel. We
enjoy a strong learning
partnership between
students, parents,
Whanau and staff and
we are proud of the
great support we have
from our community.
Learning innovation
at the College is
strengthened by the strong school values
of respect, integrity, success and empathy
and these qualities support our high
academic achievement and personal
excellence. Our courses develop the
skills required by our community and give
students the foundation for future success
in this rapidly changing world.
Thirty kilometres from Christchurch, we
benefit from easy access to urban facilities
and from the community strengths of our
rural environment. We have close links
with primary and tertiary organisations,
allowing positive transitions through all
stages of education. Our facilities are an
integral part of community life.
Located in the rural township of
Leeston, Ellesmere College is a
co-educational state funded Decile
8 school with almost 600
students from Years 7 to
13 and our three main
contributing primary
schools are Leeston
Consolidated
School,
Southbridge
Primary
School and Dunsandel
Primary School.
The College has a
proud sporting and
cultural history and
frequently produces
results that are usually
associated with
much larger schools including national
titles. Academic results are consistently
high with many students gaining
Excellence and Merit Endorsements and
Scholarships. In 2016 we were the top
Decile 8, state co-educational school for
NCEA Level 2 achievement.
The College has a strong pastoral support
system that is based around four Whanau
groups: Rata, Rimu, Kowhai and Totara.
Class sizes in Years 7 to 10 are usually in
the mid-twenties while senior classes are
often much smaller.
Ellesmere College occupies a spacious
seven hectare site that includes facilities
for cricket, athletics, tennis, netball,
rugby and football. The buildings consist
of numerous classrooms together with
specialist rooms
for teaching
science,
agriculture,
technology, art,
music, drama, a full sized gymnasium,
a modern library and we have currently
embarked on an exciting Master Plan
rebuild programme.
Ellesmere College is an inclusive school
and aims to meet the learning needs of all
students.

Your guide to Show Homes & New Sections
in the Selwyn District
Sizing up a house design
Those looking to build a new home
are likely to tour show homes, checking
features, noting the number of rooms and
spaciousness of each, and making mental
comparisons with their existing living
quarters and what they perceive they will
need in their home.
There is no one ideal house size.
Determining square metre size depends
on one’s stage in the family life cycle and
lifestyle. Young couples, older people
downsizing and those living on their own
may want smaller homes whereas families
often seek space.
Visiting show homes is a good way to get
a spatial impression.
Many building companies have more
than one show home. This allows them to
demonstrate the range of work they do,
the quality of their workmanship, and to
feature house designs they have on their
books. These homes also provide examples
of the features that can be incorporated
into a new home.
Show homes vary in size. Some are less
than 200 square metres, others may be
around 210m², 220m² or closer to 240m².
For example, Artisan Homes’ Prebbleton
show home is 246m² and offers innovative
and energy efficient ideas.
The Faringdon line-up of show homes
offers comparison with homes of 184m² or
211m². Other show homes can be found
at Lincoln’s Te Whāriki and Flemington
subdivisions, in Prebbleton, as well as in
Levi Park and Goulds Road in Rolleston.
A smaller home may not always feel less
spacious. It depends on design and layout.
A larger home may offer the opportunity
for extra living area in a separate lounge, a
laundry room inside the house rather than
in the garage, wider entry and hallways,
and larger rooms overall. Extra features
such as walk-in pantries, ensuites and
walk-in robes in the main bedroom, and
additional storage cupboards can also
be accommodated as the square metres
increase.
Building smaller will not necessarily
equate to a significantly cheaper price.
While building companies work on a
square metre build figure, certain costs are
still incurred such as for the drain laying,
plumbing, kitchen, bathroom, toilet, and
garage with the latter less costly to build.
Adding extra bathrooms and the like will
add more to the final price however, if the
square metres are taken up in living and
bedroom space or a wider hallway then
the cost is proportionately less. Higher
specified features will certainly increase
the cost of the build.
Making comparisons in both size and
features when viewing show homes and
house designs will help you determine
the size of home to build. Weigh your
needs and wants against any budgetary
constraints, ensuring you have all the facts
and a clear idea of costs before making
your final decision.

Mini makeover gives
living areas a lift
Don’t let heading into winter give you the
blues. Think of all the things you love about
the cooler seasons and give your home a
mini-makeover to make it the comfortable,
warm and welcoming home you desire.
Revamping your living and dining areas
will give your lived-in spaces a fresh new
feel. Unlike a renovation, a revamp (or
face lift) need not involve a huge financial
outlay. In fact it is an extremely budgetfriendly
way of giving your rooms a new
look as you can add and subtract pieces as
the pay packet allows.
Moving slowly over the next couple of
months is an advantage. If you don’t, after
all, like that bright pink cushion you had
planned to build your new look around,
you can change direction without having
spent too much money. Another advantage
of moving slowly to build your new look is
the time it allows you to hunt for just the
right pieces, or wait for the sales to offer
you bargains. Also have a look around your
home for items you could recover, paint or,
with a little tweaking, find new purpose for.
Start your facelift by deciding what sort of
look you’re going to aim for.
Browse magazines and the internet for
ideas, check paint colour charts for the
latest colour options. Visit furnishing stores
and take note of the different display areas -
how do they balance colour and texture?
Then find an item you would like to
build your new look around. This could
be a treasure you’ve had for a while or
something that you covet and have spotted
in a shop.
Your next step is to sit down with
pencil & paper & plan. List what items
can be changed and how, and what can’t.
Think colour, shades and tones and
complementary colours, think texture,
think pattern, think outside the square.
Think fabric, wood, plastic, old and new.
That comfy old chair doesn’t need to be
replaced.
Buy some furnishing fabric and recover
it (or have it recovered).What items have
other family members put aside because
they no longer need them but they’re ‘too
good to throw out’?
Once you’ve got some sort of plan
mapped out you can start work on creating
your new look.
Spend time browsing the shops to see
what is available in your chosen colour
- candles, photo frames, vases, pot plant
holders, wallpaper, fabric, large items and
small.

Looking for a property,
what really counts?
You are in the market for a new property,
scrolling the Internet, examining properties for
sale and zeroing in on those with potential. They
might be in locations that offer cheaper land,
larger houses, or convenience to work or school.
You may have visited show homes and open
homes becoming confused, overwhelmed or
swept away with emotional factors like having
everything new, or extra features such as three
car garaging.
To be happy with your choice, list the features
that you need, considering:
• Family space – Is there room for the
children to play indoors and for television and
entertainment units? Should this be open plan or
separated?
• Kitchen – What needs to be in your kitchen?
How serious are you about a butler’s pantry? Is
it a whim or something that offers a practical
solution to the way you use your kitchen?
• Bedroom sizes – What are optimum sizes?
Smaller bedrooms may translate to slightly
lower building costs while extra space can be
useful. When looking at existing homes, consider
whether the size of each bedroom is sufficient.
• Garaging – A standard double garage once
two cars are parked there offers little space for the
toys. What toys do you have and could they live
with the lawnmower in a garden shed, a cheaper
option to three car garaging? If the budget allows
and a larger garage with workshop is important,
make it a selection priority.
• Size of land – Lifestyle properties offer
space for children, pets, hobbies, an expansive
garden and perhaps a home-run business but
they require work so are not for everyone and a
compact section might be more sensible if a tight
budget or busy lifestyle.
• Bathrooms – Second and third bathrooms are
great in homes with teenagers and a wet shower
room is ideal for young children. A bath might
be fashionable though is often not used and its
absence could mean a more spacious bathroom.
• Laundry – Would a laundry in the garage do
the job?
• Storage – How much storage do you need?
Weigh up what can truly be stored in the garage
once vehicles are in, a preference in winter.
Garages vary in size so check the size to ensure
your vehicles will fit. Look also at where else
the house offers storage capacity such as in hall
cupboards, a large hot water cylinder cupboard,
wardrobes (check their width and depth),
walk-in robe, attic storage trusses, as well as the
potential for hooks and shelving in the garage for
bikes, tools, garden equipment and even kayaks.
• Off-street parking – How many vehicles can
be parked on the driveway? Will this space be
sufficient?
• Garden - Is there sufficient space for your
children to play or for entertaining?
A checklist will allow you to determine what
will suit your needs, the point of the exercise,
saving you time looking at properties or potential
house designs while assisting you to decide
whether to buy a new or existing home with both
options having advantages and disadvantages.
