PROMISING swimmer Hannah<br />

Bates is Bahamas-bound – but<br />

she needs the community to<br />

help get her there.<br />

A quiz night will be held to<br />

help the Lincoln resident get to<br />

the <strong>2017</strong> Commonwealth Youth<br />

Games.<br />

Earlier this month Hannah,<br />

16, returned home from the<br />

Australian age group swimming<br />

championships with a gold and<br />

silver medal, qualifying for the<br />

youth games.<br />

Hannah was the only South<br />

Island member of the 23-strong<br />

New Zealand team in Brisbane<br />

and the first ever representative<br />

from the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Aquatic<br />

Centre.<br />

She is now part of a team of<br />

34 Kiwis aged between 14 to<br />

18 selected to compete in the<br />

Commonwealth Youth Games<br />

by the New Zealand Olympic<br />

Committee.<br />

Darfield<br />

water<br />

judged<br />

the best<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

IF YOU live in Darfield, you are<br />

drinking the best-tasting water in<br />

New Zealand.<br />

A blind taste test at the New<br />

Zealand Water Industry Operators<br />

Group conference decided the<br />

township has the tastiest water.<br />

It comes after a major upgrade<br />

to the Darfield water supply in<br />

2014 with the installation of two<br />

deep ground bores, a 1000m3<br />

concrete reservoir and a booster<br />

pumping station.<br />

A district council spokeswoman<br />

said the bores source the artesian<br />

water from deep underground<br />

meaning the water is naturally<br />

filtered providing a safe supply.<br />

<strong>May</strong>or Sam Broughton, who<br />

lives in Darfield, said it was nice<br />

to celebrate some good news after<br />

the improvements were made.<br />

He said the two bores provide<br />

an increase in reliability over the<br />

summer and if work needed to<br />

be done on either of the bores the<br />

supply will still be continuous.<br />

“I do enjoy the taste of water. It’s<br />

fresh,” Mr Broughton said.<br />

Darfield Community Committee<br />

chairman and Malvern Butchery<br />

owner Paddy McKay said the<br />

water quality speaks for itself and<br />

it is pretty good.<br />

IT’S GREAT to see young people<br />

putting in the hard yards to<br />

achieve their sporting goals.<br />

On page 1 today, Lincoln’s Hannah<br />

Bates is doing just that as she<br />

continues on her promising swimming<br />

path.<br />

In July, she’s off to the Bahamas<br />

for a Commonwealth meet, which<br />

could help springboard her to the<br />

2020 Tokyo Olympics.<br />

Realistically though, she is<br />

looking further ahead to the 2024<br />

Olympics when she will be in her<br />

mid-20s and at the top of her game.<br />

The hard yards are getting up<br />

just after 5am to train for a couple<br />

of hours, off to school and then<br />

when she gets home it’s back into<br />

the pool again.<br />

There’s a quiz night in July and<br />

a givealittle page to help Hannah<br />

achieve her goals.<br />

Parking problem at busy pie shop<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

OVERCROWDED car parking<br />

at Sheffield’s popular pie shop<br />

has created a spate of roading<br />

issues.<br />

Growing numbers of cars and<br />

trucks parking “dangerously”<br />

outside The Famous<br />

Sheffield<br />

Pie Shop has<br />

the community<br />

calling out for<br />

the district<br />

council and the<br />

New Zealand<br />

Transport<br />

David Ward<br />

Agency to<br />

change the<br />

layout of State<br />

Highway 73, Duke and Vogel<br />

Sts, before an accident happens.<br />

Vehicles backing out from the<br />

pie shop onto SH73, customers<br />

parking on neighbour’s berms<br />

and speeding have all raised<br />

concern.<br />

“We understand we have created<br />

this busy business . . . but<br />

we have never had any help as<br />

far as the district council goes,”<br />

owner Loretta Paterson said.<br />

She said a group of district<br />

councillors visited the area<br />

about four years ago to assess<br />

the car parking issue but nothing<br />

eventuated.<br />

DANGER: Trucks parking outside The Famous Sheffield Pie<br />

Shop has raised concerns over traffic having limited visibility<br />

when exiting Duke St onto State Highway 73.<br />

the bakery has an increase of<br />

<strong>30</strong>00 sales and is planning to<br />

renovate.<br />

Costings are under way for the<br />

bakery to be turned into a cafe<br />

with more seating, customer<br />

toilets, a breakfast menu and<br />

children’s play area.<br />

Following a recent meeting<br />

with Mrs Paterson, the Sheffield/Waddington<br />

Community<br />

Committee sent a submission to<br />

the district council asking it to<br />

improve the roading.<br />

It asked for there to be “no<br />

parking” on the left side of SH73<br />

travelling west between Malvern<br />

Hills Rd and the pie shop.<br />

Rolleston’s Hearing Aid Clinic<br />

said vehicles are parking dangerously<br />

on the highway and it<br />

needed urgent attention.<br />

Other suggestions included<br />

lowering the speed limit from<br />

70km/h to 50km/h and making<br />

adjacent street, Duke St, oneway<br />

with vehicles exiting via<br />

Vogel St.<br />

This would help stop customers<br />

parking on neighbour’s<br />

lawns on Duke St as well addressing<br />

problems around the<br />

lack of visibility drivers have<br />

exiting the street onto the main<br />

highway due to vehicles parked<br />

outside the business.<br />

Mrs Paterson said the shop<br />

would also like to see Duke St<br />

widened with parallel parking<br />

put on the bakery side, curbing<br />

put in place and 10min parks on<br />

the main road.<br />

The bakery currently has 10<br />

car parks located behind the<br />

building.<br />

But the district council’s chief<br />

executive David Ward said<br />

following an on-site meeting<br />

earlier this month, it was agreed<br />

the community committee<br />

would formally request Duke St<br />

is upgraded.<br />

“That request has not yet been<br />

received, and no decisions on or<br />

commitments on further work<br />

has been made,” he said.<br />

As for lowering the speed<br />

limit, the outcome is unlikely.<br />

A NZTA safety team spokesman<br />

said while it is looking to<br />

improve parking on State Highway<br />

73, the current speed limit<br />

is seen as appropriate.<br />

“However, the transport<br />

agency will investigate installing<br />

larger signs at the entrances of<br />

the township,” he said.<br />

It is estimated by NZTA nearly<br />

1800 vehicles travel through<br />

the township each day.<br />

Be tidy at Arthur’s Pass<br />

Arthur’s Pass<br />

Association<br />

Committee<br />

chairman<br />

Richard<br />

Holyoake writes<br />

about the<br />

demands the<br />

township is<br />

facing as visitor numbers<br />

grow<br />

Arthur’s Pass village is a gem<br />

in the Arthur’s Pass National<br />

Park with a rich history and<br />

stunning scenery. It lies on State<br />

Highway 73, the midland rail<br />

line (both critical links between<br />

Canterbury and the West Coast)<br />

and on the Te Araroa trail running<br />

the length of New Zealand.<br />

The community is tight-knit<br />

and is made up of a small resident<br />

population and numerous<br />

bach-holders, all with a passion<br />

for the special character of the<br />

place.<br />

Its beauty is in its remoteness,<br />

the steep rocky slopes, the bush,<br />

the wildlife, the high rainfall<br />

and the big rivers.<br />

These features, and its proximity<br />

to Christchurch, also make it<br />

attractive with increasing numbers<br />

of trampers, backpackers<br />

and tourists passing through the<br />

area on an annual basis.<br />

A number of these features<br />

also contribute to its vulnerability,<br />

illustrated by large slips<br />

closing the state highway earlier<br />

this year, and fire has also cut off<br />

access recently – along the state<br />

highway and on the midland<br />

line.<br />

Remoteness breeds resourcefulness<br />

and resilience, and the<br />

Arthur’s Pass community has<br />

this in spades – however, this<br />

will be more and more tested as<br />

visitor numbers increase.<br />

We are upgrading our<br />

community centre and have<br />

upgraded the squash court. We<br />

recently lobbied for, and now<br />

have a recycling facility, and<br />

have regular community gatherings.<br />

The community also fulfils a<br />

huge role in pest control, now<br />

managing about 800 predator<br />

(stoats and possums) traps in the<br />

area – much of this voluntary.<br />

More visitors means more<br />

SCENIC: The midland rail line<br />

through Arthur’s Pass takes<br />

a large number of tourists to<br />

the village.<br />

demand on toilets, camping<br />

areas, walking tracks and other<br />

visitor facilities – or even worse<br />

could mean more litter along<br />

the road side, more uncontrolled<br />

toileting, more fires, more road<br />

accidents and more mountain<br />

rescues.<br />

Locals provide a volunteer fire<br />

brigade (emergency response)<br />

dealing with emergencies. They<br />

assist tourists, and clean up the<br />

mess after careless visitors.<br />

Partnership is required to protect<br />

what we have, not just with<br />

agencies such as Department<br />

of Conservation and district<br />

council, but with all our visitors.<br />

Everyone needs to do their<br />

bit and be a safe and tidy Kiwi.<br />

A reader responds to an<br />

article in <strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong><br />

about the new skate park<br />

which will go next to the<br />

Lincoln Event Centre<br />

Jacqueline Reid – I can<br />

understand the reluctance of<br />

Lincoln residents to have a<br />

skate park located close to their<br />

homes.<br />

We owned a property close to<br />

the Prebbleton skate park and it<br />

does impact on a property’s sale<br />

ability.<br />

We found numerous potential<br />

purchasers who came through<br />

the open homes expressed concern<br />

about how close the skate<br />

facility was to neighbouring<br />

homes and felt this detracted<br />

from the appeal.<br />

There was increased vehicle<br />

traffic in a previously quiet culde-sac,<br />

we often had cars parking<br />

over our driveway and visitors to<br />

the park would often walk over<br />

our property to get to the park.<br />

There is also the constant noise<br />

SET PLAN:<br />

The new skate<br />

park will be<br />

built where<br />

the seating<br />

and barbecue<br />

shelter near<br />

the Lincoln<br />

Event Centre<br />

are currently<br />

located.<br />

from skaters dropping their<br />

skateboards while preforming<br />

jumps.<br />

I understand the district council’s<br />

wish to cater for the youth<br />

of <strong>Selwyn</strong>. However, the local<br />

residents’ (ratepayer) concerns<br />

need to be heard and seriously<br />

considered before any future<br />

development is undertaken,<br />

especially within a subdivision.<br />

In spite of the district council’s<br />

assurances, these facilities do<br />

have an impact neighbouring<br />

properties.<br />

INFLUX: The Coes Ford camping ground is one of the areas<br />

experiencing an increase in freedom campers.<br />

A reader responds to an<br />

article in <strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong><br />

about ensuring the district<br />

can cope with the influx of<br />

freedom campers<br />

David Taylor – Very simple.<br />

Keep it black and white. Do we<br />

want second-tier tourists who<br />

add little and cost New Zealanders<br />

heavily? Simple answer is no.<br />

Do we want high-quality tourists<br />

who add value? Yes.<br />

Ban freedom campers period.<br />

Make people stay in Department<br />

of Conservation camps<br />

or normal camping grounds.<br />

It’s not fair that campground<br />

owners invest and provide a<br />

good service. Why should people<br />

camp essentially where they like?<br />

This country attracts tourists<br />

based on our clean image and<br />

the beauty we have. Keep this up<br />

and no one will want to come to<br />

New Zealand, which will just be<br />

another trashed, filthy country<br />

like so many others.<br />

Tourism, if managed properly<br />

and if we invest heavily into<br />

infrastructure, can work. But<br />

typical of all Governments, and<br />

at the local level too, they are reactive<br />

and lazy, rather than being<br />

proactive and anticipating likely<br />

outcomes before they happen.<br />

Our politicians and councillors<br />

are too self-serving and<br />

interested more in keeping their<br />

jobs than doing the hard yards<br />

necessary to protect what we<br />

have . . . the environment is being<br />

severely compromised all in<br />

the name of money.<br />

As a New Zealander, I’m far<br />

from happy the way we are being<br />

sold out. Like the state of our<br />

waterways, it’s a disgrace. Clean<br />

and green is the biggest con. New<br />

Zealanders will soon wake up, as<br />

will the rest of the world, and see<br />

that New Zealand is a rout.<br />

We invest too much on marketing<br />

how great we are. I only<br />

wish so much effort and money<br />

went into protecting what we<br />

have for future generations.<br />

Sustainability springs to mind.<br />

Lincoln firefighters involved in big house blaze<br />

Hannah’s goal to swim at Olympics<br />

• By Caitlin Miles<br />

LINCOLN firefighters were<br />

among those who attended a<br />

major house fire in Kaituna<br />

yesterday.<br />

A paraplegic man was rescued<br />

from the fire by a farm worker.<br />

The blaze consumed the<br />

wooden, 100-year-old-plus property<br />

quickly.<br />

The man’s son, Brent Thomas,<br />

said he was just thankful his<br />

father got out.<br />

Six fire crews from Lincoln,<br />

Akaroa, Little River and<br />

Christchurch battled the blaze.<br />

Little River chief fire officer<br />

David Irving said the fire started<br />

in the roof.<br />

•From page 1<br />

Hannah, who attends<br />

Christchurch Girls’ High School,<br />

said while there is no expectation<br />

to get into the finals, or<br />

to win medals while in<br />

the Bahamas, she has big<br />

plans to qualify for the<br />

2020 Summer Olympics<br />

in Tokyo.<br />

“Tokyo is definitely on<br />

the cards to go hopefully<br />

. . . but if I don’t make<br />

Tokyo then definitely<br />

the 2024 Summer Olympics,” she<br />

said.<br />

She thinks the 2024 Olympics<br />

will be a more realistic goal.<br />

If she qualifies for the Olympics,<br />

she joins other swimming<br />

Olympians from CGHS – Lydia<br />

Lydia Lipscombe and Sarah<br />

Catherwood (Atlanta 1996) and<br />

Helen Norfolk (Beijing 2008)<br />

Her weekly training schedule<br />

sees her swim eight to nine<br />

sessions a week morning and<br />

evening at the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Aquatic<br />

Centre along with attending the<br />

gym three times and doing<br />

a pilates class once<br />

a week.<br />

She said she gets up<br />

at 5.10am on Monday,<br />

Wednesday and Saturday<br />

to train at the<br />

aquatic centre while<br />

also training Tuesday,<br />

Thursday and Friday<br />

evenings.<br />

But for now Hannah (left)<br />

is concentrating on the youth<br />

games, with her weekly training<br />

schedule made up of swimming<br />

at the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Aquatic Centre<br />

eight to nine times, along with<br />

attending the gym three times<br />

and doing a pilates class.<br />

Hannah will need to<br />

raise $6000 to get to the<br />

The blaze burned through<br />

the beams of the house and<br />

it collapsed. The fire service<br />

received multiple calls.<br />

The fire started at about<br />

10.35am.<br />

When firefighters arrived the<br />

house was “well-involved.”<br />

It was too early to say what the<br />

cause of the fire may have been.<br />

Commonwealth Youth Games<br />

late July.<br />

“I just want to embrace the<br />

experience, culture and going<br />

over again with a New Zealand<br />

team,” Hannah said.<br />

The quiz night will be held<br />

at the Silver Dollar Bar and<br />

Restaurant, Jones Rd, Rolleston,<br />

from 7-9pm, July 3. Teams can<br />

Darfield water judged the best in NZ<br />

•From page 1<br />

The judging panel made up of<br />

representatives from the WIOG,<br />

chemical company IXOM and<br />

Altitude Brewing decided Darfield<br />

had the best-tasting water<br />

based on how it looks, smells<br />

and tastes.<br />

The improved quality is a large<br />

turn-around in the township’s<br />

water supply.<br />

In 2012, animal effluent in<br />

Darfield’s water supply was<br />

the cause of a gastroenteritis<br />

outbreak affecting more than<br />

110 people.<br />

Darfield Bakery owner Daryl<br />

Collier agreed the water quality<br />

was good since the new bores<br />

were installed but it took the district<br />

council a long time to take<br />

responsibility for the outbreak<br />

in 2012.<br />

Stanwood Holdings Ltd director<br />

Jim Brooker, who was responsible<br />

for installing the first<br />

water well west of the township<br />

on resident Jill Logan’s property<br />

said the news is a big boost for<br />

the area.<br />

“It is a big thing for Darfield,<br />

we need this boost,” he said.<br />

Darfield Garden Centre and<br />

Florist manager Angela Lalor<br />

said there are no complaints<br />

from the plants over the water<br />

quality.<br />

Meanwhile, a decision on a<br />

REFRESHING: Darfield High School students Emma Coyle and Tristen Jones with a glass of<br />

proposed reticulated wastewater<br />

system for Darfield and Kirwee<br />

in the district council’s draft<br />

annual <strong>2017</strong>-2018 plan has been<br />

put on hold.<br />

Mr Collier said he has concerns<br />

Darfield is the largest<br />

townships without a sewage<br />

system.<br />

During the annual plan’s<br />

deliberations last week no decision<br />

was made on whether the<br />

district council will go ahead<br />

with the plan.<br />

Mr Broughton said the district<br />

council will look to work with<br />

the community and scientific<br />

data over the next 12 months to<br />

make a decision on the system.<br />

Rate increase<br />

to manage<br />

stormwater<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

RESIDENTS CAN expect a rate<br />

increase of $85 per property in<br />

areas where the district council<br />

manages stormwater.<br />

The issue was decided at Annual<br />

Plan discussions on Thursday.<br />

Nearly 14,000 properties will<br />

be affected by the decision. They<br />

include 5272 properties in Rolleston,<br />

Lincoln (2035), Prebbleton<br />

(1462) and Darfield (1112).<br />

Deputy <strong>May</strong>or Malcolm Lyall<br />

said the increase provides a better<br />

way of managing stormwater<br />

across the community.<br />

“There will be winners and losers,<br />

there will be some who will see<br />

their rates go up and some will see<br />

it go down. It will give us a larger<br />

reserve in the future as issues come<br />

along,” Cr Lyall said.<br />

A health hub in Rolleston is also<br />

on the cards along with an extension<br />

for the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Aquatic Centre<br />

also approved.<br />

Mr Broughton said it was decided<br />

the libraries will not be open<br />

on Sundays after the submissions<br />

were received were not supportive<br />

of the idea.<br />

But the library hours will be<br />

open for longer on weekdays.<br />

Jaz Tuihana Vivian<br />

Tomboy takes non gender-based<br />

Jaz Tuihana Vivian, 22,<br />

grew up in Southbridge<br />

and is now making her<br />

mark in the fashion<br />

world. She talks to<br />

Georgia O’Connor-<br />

Harding<br />

Tell me about your fashion<br />

brand Losers Are Cool (LAC<br />

Crews)?<br />

I have always kind of had the<br />

dream of doing a tomboy clothing<br />

line but I have never really<br />

known enough about it. So I<br />

did a business course last year<br />

and it made me a little bit more<br />

confident about releasing it. A<br />

couple of my friends are in the<br />

fashion industry. I bounced ideas<br />

off them, came up with a name,<br />

put it all together and released it.<br />

There is actually nothing online<br />

that is purely tomboy clothing.<br />

What I wanted to do was take<br />

away that awkward shopping<br />

down the wrong aisle thing and<br />

make it all online so people<br />

don’t have to go into the shop.<br />

What made you realise you<br />

were a tomboy?<br />

I have always been a tomboy<br />

out playing rugby and getting<br />

muddy with the boys. I am not<br />

a girly girl at all. Mum always<br />

tells me about when I was<br />

a kid she would dress me<br />

in a pretty pink dress and<br />

then I would go steal<br />

my brothers’ clothes just<br />

before we were about to<br />

go out. I played rugby<br />

for eight years. I had to<br />

take time off this year<br />

because it was getting<br />

too busy but I am into<br />

staying fit and<br />

healthy. It<br />

makes you feel better at the<br />

end of the day.<br />

Tell me about your<br />

idea to have non-gender<br />

based clothing?<br />

I think these days<br />

in our society you<br />

know everyone is<br />

breaking down the<br />

barriers. And a lot<br />

of things have come<br />

to head that you know<br />

back in the day<br />

would be<br />

scorned upon. I think with everyone<br />

breaking down these barriers<br />

why not me as well. I don’t<br />

understand why there is girl and<br />

boy clothing – it just puts that<br />

line in the middle.<br />

Have you always had a passion<br />

for equality?<br />

Just growing up being a tomboy<br />

you always have your battles.<br />

You have people at school and<br />

stuff saying things to you and<br />

it makes high school really uncomfortable.<br />

I thought if I could<br />

make it easy for people that are<br />

younger, that is me doing my bit.<br />

Was it a mission creating<br />

these clothes?<br />

It was a big mission but like I<br />

said, I had a few friends in the<br />

fashion industry so I bumped<br />

heads with them and thought<br />

what isn’t working about the<br />

clothes now and what I can improve<br />

on. Together we came up<br />

with a few ideas. I made it very<br />

basic so I can add onto it. My<br />

sister Jayde Vivian is an upcoming<br />

model so she was my model<br />

and her friends are interested in<br />

photography. Everything about it<br />

means a lot to me. It hasn’t been<br />

about making money. It is about<br />

making a difference.<br />

How did you get into the business<br />

side of things?<br />

Definitely, I left high school at<br />

year 12. I was never into school<br />

but I knew I had to carry on<br />

doing something so I went to the<br />

New Zealand Institute of Sport<br />

thinking I would be a personal<br />

trainer and then I did a marketing<br />

paper in the curriculum. It<br />

was just what we had to do and<br />

I aced it. My teacher pulled me<br />

aside and said that was the best<br />

marketing paper she had seen.<br />

I was like why don’t I venture<br />

from that and do something with<br />

it rather than sitting in a gym<br />

all day. That is when I got into<br />

business. I was the class clown at<br />

school and it is a better<br />

feeling being successful now having<br />

not actually enjoyed school<br />

at all.<br />

What were your experiences<br />

like at school and how did you<br />

stay true to yourself?<br />

I had a lot of support from<br />

my family. Especially my mum.<br />

We have quite an open relationship.<br />

When I came home from<br />

school she could tell I was upset.<br />

I think that was the best. There<br />

were a few teachers at school I really<br />

related to. I think a mixture<br />

of that and people telling me I<br />

am unique is what pulled me<br />

through. But I definitely got bullied<br />

a lot.<br />

clothing to the fashion world<br />

Getting out of school must<br />

have been the best for you?<br />

Absolutely, I was definitely a<br />

misfit. But I wouldn’t encourage<br />

anyone to just drop out of school<br />

- you have definitely got to have a<br />

plan. Mum said as soon as I had a<br />

plan I could sign out.<br />

How did you come up with the<br />

Losers are Cool idea?<br />

It just stemmed from school.<br />

I thought you look around the<br />

classroom and you have your popular<br />

kids, nerdy kids and out-right<br />

losers. The losers end up being the<br />

ones everyone wants to be around<br />

because they are genuinely the<br />

most successful ones.<br />

Do you think people began to<br />

look at you more positively as<br />

you all got older?<br />

Yes definitely, I have people<br />

messaging me now saying: ‘I<br />

know we didn’t get on at school<br />

but what you are doing is awesome.’<br />

You get the support from<br />

those that influenced you to do<br />

this. It makes you feel a lot better.<br />

It all happened for a reason.<br />

What are your other passions?<br />

I work in hospitality as a bar<br />

tender at The Sideline Sports Bar<br />

in Richmond. I do my clothing<br />

line throughout the day. My job<br />

opened my eyes. I have been at the<br />

bar almost four years. I think being<br />

in the hospitality industry and<br />

seeing people from all walks of life<br />

has opened my eyes to equality<br />

issues in society. Everyone should<br />

be themselves and not be put<br />

down.<br />

What do you think of the<br />

Southbridge community?<br />

I love going to my mum’s in<br />

Southbridge. The people there<br />

are genuinely interested in what<br />

everyone is doing. I know you get<br />

the small town stuff but people are<br />

interested in you going far. I like<br />

that aspect of country life. Everyone<br />

is genuinely happy and they<br />

have been supportive to people of<br />

all ages. One of my mum’s friends<br />

bought my own clothing.<br />

During those tough times at<br />

high school how did you overcome<br />

being bullied?<br />

I still get really bad anxiety. You<br />

have just got to remind yourself<br />

you are going in the right direction.<br />

It is hard at high school,<br />

there is the councillor but people<br />

feel intimidated going there<br />

because it seems like they have got<br />

an issue or weak. You have to find<br />

someone to talk to – even if it is<br />

just a teacher you have a comfortable<br />

relationship with. I am a<br />

pretty outgoing person so I didn’t<br />

find it that hard.<br />

Tell me a bit about your sister<br />

Jayde?<br />

At the start of the year she went<br />

to New York Fashion Week. She is<br />

signed with NZ Models & Talent.<br />

They took a group of girls over<br />

there to Australia to do workshops.<br />

She said it was an amazing<br />

experience and opened her eyes<br />

up to the industry. She has left<br />

school end of year 12 as well and<br />

I suppose she is trying to find her<br />

feet. My brother Tyler is in a band<br />

called Idiio. It is short for idiosyncratic<br />

meaning unique. He used<br />

to be in a band in Christchurch<br />

called the Make Believes. I think<br />

we are all pretty creative.<br />

Are there any other plans you<br />

have for the future?<br />

What I really want to do is be<br />

a wedding planner and with my<br />

clothing line I want to make tom<br />

boy wedding apparel. That is my<br />

end goal. I want to do suits but<br />

tailored to fit women better. I<br />

could go into the dresses. I could<br />

make a dress that is more comfortable.<br />

Have you always had an interest<br />

in weddings?<br />

I have always been fascinated<br />

with love I think. It is amazing<br />

and with all this stuff going on<br />

with the lesbian, gay, bisexual,<br />

and transgender community. I<br />

think it is important to try and<br />

embrace and make people feel<br />

comfortable when it comes to<br />

their super special day in the life.<br />

Legal Assistance Online<br />

A new concept in legal services has<br />

been created by John Shingleton, with the<br />

establishment of Online Lawyers in June 2016.<br />

“After years of working in a legal system<br />

that seemed clumsy and time-consuming, I<br />

came up with the idea of a digitally based law<br />

practice. My aim was to offer an efficient and<br />

convenient, customer focussed service with a<br />

fast turnaround time,” explains John.<br />

John sought IT advice, on how a secure,<br />

encrypted, cloud-based interactive legal service<br />

could be an on-line reality then six months<br />

of planning ensued before the business was<br />

launched.<br />

“As soon as I decided what to do, it was just<br />

a matter of timing and getting the systems in<br />

place,” adds John.<br />

The level of flexibility the business offers has<br />

proven popular with clients leading to Sharon<br />

Scott recently joining John to look after the<br />

conveyancing side of the business.<br />

Sharon is experienced in in all aspects of<br />

conveyancing work, a great asset for clients<br />

purchasing property in what is now a complex<br />

field, with the effects of the earthquakes, insurer<br />

requirements and new finance laws all to be<br />

taken into consideration. Sharon knows the<br />

process and can guide clients through these<br />

potential hurdles.<br />

“I like to get to know my clients so I can offer<br />

them the best advice and service, completing<br />

the transaction either remotely or visiting clients<br />

at a time that suits them,” says Sharon.<br />

Together, John and Sharon share over<br />

45 years’ experience in the legal field. They<br />

have expertise in all aspects of conveyancing<br />

including buying and selling sections, residential<br />

homes, commercial properties and farms. John<br />

also specialises in setting up and overseeing<br />

trusts, employment law, health and safety law<br />

and other areas of business law.<br />

Online Lawyers do not have centralised<br />

offices, instead working locally within<br />

their community, utilising the Internet and<br />

videoconferencing to explain and share<br />

information as well as witness and record<br />

legal document signing. This reduces business<br />

expense and increases their availability to<br />

clients.<br />

Canterbury based, John and Sharon will also<br />

call on clients, at their premises or homes, or<br />

meet them in a café or private purpose built hot<br />

desk facility that might be booked for a certain<br />

length of time.<br />

A key feature of Online Lawyers is they are<br />

up-front, providing a pre-agreed scoping of<br />

instructions and competitive set price for each<br />

job with fixed rates for conveyancing, which<br />

are listed on their website: www.onlinelawyers.<br />

nz along with other information about their<br />

services.<br />

Clients are able to budget for the legal<br />

component of their activities and confirm they<br />

wish to proceed before the contract is taken on.<br />

To contact Online Lawyers, call John on<br />

022 658 0434 or email: john@onlinelawyers.<br />

start in September and<br />

the first titles are expected<br />

to be through towards<br />

the end of 2018. This first<br />

release will consist of 120<br />

sections.<br />

The project is the work<br />

of locally owned Gillman<br />

Wheelans, an established<br />

developer that was also<br />

responsible for Levi Park,<br />

in Rolleston.<br />

Gillman Wheelans<br />

director Hamish Wheelans<br />

said such was the demand<br />

for Levi Park that the<br />

company had since been<br />

seeking a quality block of<br />

land on which to build a<br />

new subdivision.<br />

“We really liked this<br />

piece of land because of<br />

its location and we’re keen<br />

to try and save some of<br />

the existing plantings,<br />

including part of a<br />

hazelnut orchard and some<br />

established oak trees.”<br />

Falcon’s Landing will<br />

include Gillman Wheelans’<br />

NATURE:<br />

These oak<br />

trees will<br />

form part of<br />

one of the<br />

reserves<br />

at Falcon’s<br />

Landing.<br />

Development for Rolleston<br />

hallmark tennis court,<br />

along with a wide range of<br />

recreational spaces.<br />

“One of the key facets of<br />

subdivisions is ensuring<br />

that there are great green<br />

spaces for the community<br />

both for visual appeal<br />

and to use. You have to<br />

really understand what’s<br />

important to people<br />

and how they want to<br />

live. Good amenities are<br />

crucial,” Mr Wheelans<br />

said.<br />

Gillman Wheelans has<br />

successfully completed 19<br />

low and medium density<br />

subdivisions over the<br />

past 15 years, including<br />

Preston Downs in West<br />

Melton, and The Woods in<br />

Prebbleton.<br />

About <strong>30</strong> year 4 to 8<br />

pupils, also known as the<br />

Eco Warriors, along with a<br />

group of parents travelled<br />

to the school’s planting<br />

site, Kowhai Sanctuary, on<br />

Thompsons Rd.<br />

The purpose was to<br />

monitor last year’s plantings<br />

of natives as part of<br />

the Matariki celebrations<br />

carried out by the school’s<br />

year 3 and 4 team.<br />

Following an examination<br />

by the Eco Warriors,<br />

it was estimated about 90<br />

per cent of the plants had<br />

survived.<br />

The pupils also tracked<br />

the number of birds and<br />

located different types of<br />

Lincoln surprise package<br />

in UC Championship<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

LINCOLN COMBINED have<br />

been handed just their second<br />

defeat of the season as they fell<br />

to St Andrew’s College 58-18 on<br />

Saturday.<br />

While it could be seen as<br />

a <strong>30</strong>-point defeat, it could<br />

also be taken as a remarkable<br />

turnaround when compared<br />

to the result from the same<br />

fixture two years ago, which saw<br />

Lincoln defeated 0-91.<br />

In previous years, Lincoln<br />

have been seen as easy beats.<br />

However, they proved that<br />

wrong with a 15-10 round 1<br />

upset over St Bede’s College,<br />

which have won five of the last<br />

nine championships.<br />

Part of Lincoln’s rise this<br />

season could be put down to<br />

the inclusion of players from<br />

Darfield High School, Akaroa<br />

Area School and Ellesmere<br />

College, hence the name Lincoln<br />

Combined.<br />

For some of the boys that<br />

means a long journey for<br />

training, but new Lincoln coach<br />

Michael Wilson says everyone<br />

has bought into the new culture.<br />

“It’s been working really well.<br />

The boys all get along and most<br />

of them know each other from<br />

growing up through local club<br />

rugby, where they have played<br />

GO FORWARD: Prop Cam Jordan looks for<br />

a way through the St Andrew’s defence.<br />

against each other,” said Wilson.<br />

Lincoln put in a valiant effort<br />

on Saturday, but in the end were<br />

overpowered by St Andrew’s<br />

who put in a dominant display<br />

in their club day match.<br />

Lincoln face another<br />

tough test on Saturday when<br />

they travel to St Thomas of<br />

Canterbury College. The<br />

boys’ school have been<br />

unpredictable this season, but<br />

at times have shown they are<br />

capable of competing with<br />

any championship team and<br />

recently recorded their first win<br />

over St Bede’s in 34 years.<br />

Free Wi-Fi zones<br />

coming!<br />

Speed limit areas changing in<br />

West Melton<br />

The 70km speed zone on State Highway 73 in West Melton<br />

township is being extended to take in some of the towns new<br />

subdivisions.<br />

The NZ Transport Agency which manages the state highway<br />

network is altering the 70km zone so it extends around 250 metres<br />

further east. The extension will enable safety improvements to be<br />

made - the first of these will be the installation of a new pedestrian<br />

refuge island and crossing point opposite the Wilfield subdivision to<br />

the Gainsbourgh subdivision. Further crossings are planned either<br />

side of the Weedons Ross Road intersection on State Highway<br />

73 and flush medians will also be added on the State Highway in<br />

conjunction with the crossing points.<br />

A new walkway was recently developed from the northern end of<br />

the new Wilfield subdivision along State Highway 73 to connect<br />

to West Melton’s central township area and the West Melton<br />

Domain. The crossing points will provide a safer crossing option<br />

for people using these footpaths. The pedestrian improvements<br />

being undertaken have been a collaborative effort between the NZ<br />

Transport Agency, the Council, private land owners and developers<br />

in the area.<br />

Three free Wi-Fi zones will be operating in <strong>Selwyn</strong> soon, with one of the zones already available<br />

in Darfield.<br />

The new zones will offer free public Wi-Fi access from central facilities in Darfield, Lincoln and Tai<br />

Tapu. The Wi-Fi zones are being provided by the Council through the Spark network and designed<br />

to be used by both locals and visitors. They will allow people to connect to ultra-fast broadband<br />

with usage not time or data limited.<br />

The zone which is already operating is based at Darfield Library and extends approximately 50<br />

metres around the library location. A similar 50 metre free Wi-Fi zone will start operating outside<br />

Lincoln Library in June. A third free Wi-Fi zone is planned to start operating in central Tai Tapu by<br />

the end of the year, with the site yet to be selected.<br />

Malvern and Ellesmere Garden waste days<br />

successful<br />

Over 22 tonnes of green waste and 7 tonnes of scrap metal were collected from Ellesmere and Malvern<br />

residents recently and have now been recycled or composted. The clean-up days were held in April<br />

and were a chance for people to clean up their gardens and backyards by disposing of garden waste<br />

and scrap metal at a local collection point.<br />

The Council’s Solid Waste Manager Andrew Boyd says the days are a way to offer a low cost waste<br />

disposal option to help reduce the amount of fly tipping and avoid junk building up on properties, while<br />

also supporting local community groups.<br />

Nearly $1,500 was also raised at the two days which will be given to the Malvern Lions and Ellesmere<br />

Heritage Park who staffed the days. The Malvern Lions Club wished to thank the community for taking<br />

part in the day. They plan to donate the funding they received to local sports groups. Groups who<br />

would like to receive funding from the Lions are encouraged to contact them and register their interest.<br />

The Ellesmere Heritage Park Trust will use the funding it received to continue restoration work on the<br />

historic Carroll cottage.<br />

On the roads this week<br />

Construction of a temporary unsealed footpath is planned on the<br />

north side of Birchs Road in Lincoln.<br />

Road widening work is continuing on Jones Road between<br />

Weedons Ross Road and the Lyttelton Port Company until mid-<br />

June. The road will remain open, but may be reduced to one lane at<br />

times with traffic delays expected. Maddisons Road is suggested as<br />

an alternative route at peak times.<br />

Sewer line installation continues on sections of Hamptons, Shands,<br />

and <strong>Selwyn</strong> Road to the intersection of Springston Rolleston Road.<br />

There may be a reduction down to one lane on these roads with<br />

traffic delays possible.<br />

Christchurch Southern Motorway extension<br />

There will be changes to the traffic setups on both Weedons Ross<br />

Road and Weedons Road over the next couple of weeks. The oneway<br />

system remains on Waterholes Road from Hamptons Road to<br />

833 Waterholes Road running south towards Robinsons Road with<br />

detours in place, with changes to the road alignment to allow for<br />

construction of the bridge. Please be alert to changes in the traffic<br />

management, follow the on-site signage and drive to the conditions.<br />

Your Library – learn about eCollections!<br />

Could you or someone you know benefit from learning how to use eAudiobooks, eBooks, eMagazines,<br />

online tutorials, or the library catalogue – all on your smart phone, device or home computer? Did you<br />

know you can access all of the above and more for free with your library membership? <strong>Selwyn</strong> Libraries<br />

are here to help!<br />

Come along to fortnightly free drop-in sessions at any <strong>Selwyn</strong> Library to learn about the eCollections<br />

your library membership gives you access to, 24 hours a day from anywhere!<br />

These will be perfect if you have ever wondered how you can use the eCollections available from the<br />

library but never had the chance to ask.<br />

Sessions will begin the week of 12 June and be held in fortnightly blocks:<br />

· Lincoln on Mondays from 10.<strong>30</strong>–11.<strong>30</strong>am (first session 12 June)<br />

· Leeston on Tuesdays from 10.<strong>30</strong>–11.<strong>30</strong>am (first session 13 June)<br />

· Darfield on Wednesdays from 1–2pm (first session 21 June)<br />

· Rolleston on Fridays from 1–2pm (first session 23 June)<br />

The first session will be about ePlatform, which provides you with 24<br />

hour access to a huge collection of eBooks. You can read eBooks<br />

anywhere, any time. The second session will be about BorrowBox,<br />

a growing collection of eAudiobooks. You can listen to over 1,000<br />

eAudiobooks anywhere, any time!<br />

Feel free to bring your own devices, and any questions you’ve<br />

been wanting to ask your library about the eCollections. Visit<br />

www.selwynlibraries.co.nz for more information on session topics.<br />

Help keep our<br />

drains flowing<br />

With the recent wet weather<br />

in autumn, drains can become<br />

blocked with leaves.<br />

You can help avoid flooding<br />

around your property and street<br />

by removing any leaves that<br />

are clogging drains. Council<br />

contractors do regularly clear<br />

drains but leaves can quickly<br />

build up in windy conditions at<br />

autumn time.<br />

Southbridge advance to semi-finals<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

SOUTHBRIDGE have advanced<br />

to the semi-finals of the<br />

Combined Country Cup after<br />

a hard fought 31-25 win over<br />

Waihora on Saturday.<br />

They also got revenge on last<br />

year’s final which Waihora won<br />

31-24 in June.<br />

Southbridge dominated the<br />

opening 40 minutes and went<br />

into the sheds with a 24-8 advantage,<br />

courtesy of two tries from<br />

speedy winger Cameron Sheat.<br />

Southbridge scored again early in<br />

the second half, which extended<br />

the lead to 31-8, before Waihora<br />

launched a spirited comeback.<br />

In the final minutes, Southbridge<br />

found themselves holding<br />

on to a slim lead and down to<br />

14-men.<br />

“The whole team stood up in<br />

the last 15 minutes. We were<br />

camped in our half with a man in<br />

the sin-bin, but the guys showed<br />

great character to hold on,” said<br />

Southbridge coach Mike Rowe.<br />

They now host Lincoln on<br />

Saturday in another all-Ellesmere<br />

clash, in which they will play for<br />

a spot in the grand-final. The<br />

two teams met in the opening<br />

round of the competition when<br />

Southbridge claimed the Murray<br />

Cooper Shield.<br />

“They’ll be a much-improved<br />

team since then. They will have<br />

done their homework and they<br />

have one of the best forward<br />

packs in the competition,” said<br />

Rowe.<br />

Lincoln were the only quarterfinalists<br />

to win on the road when<br />

Hororata Village Bar & Café<br />

Hororata’s Butchers Beef Roll<br />

Voted in New Zealand’s Top 5<br />

With thousands of cafés, it is no mean feat to<br />

have your sausage roll voted in the top five in<br />

New Zealand.<br />

Recently, Coast radio station conducted a six<br />

week search to find the country’s best sausage<br />

roll. Hororata Village Bar & Café’s Butchers<br />

Beef Roll received hundreds of votes and after<br />

final judging, carried out by Masterchef winner<br />

Brett McGregor and Coast Radio morning<br />

host Brian Kelly, the beef roll was placed in the<br />

Top 5 in New Zealand.<br />

“The win’s exciting for our Butchers Pie<br />

Brand,” says Jason Kupe who with Jarnia, owns<br />

and operates Hororata Village Bar & Café.<br />

Professionally trained butcher turned pastry<br />

cook, Jason has perfected his skills, baking<br />

the Butchers Pie and Beef Roll on site at their<br />

Hororata café.<br />

Jason knew he had a beauty when he created<br />

the Butchers Beef Roll. This mighty big sausage<br />

roll along with their Butchers Pie, have been<br />

popular with customers since the couple took<br />

over the business, five years ago.<br />

“Our Butchers Beef Roll is made from quality<br />

Backyard critters<br />

No need to fear white-tails<br />

Mike<br />

Bowie is an<br />

ecologist<br />

who<br />

specialises<br />

in<br />

entomology<br />

(insects and other<br />

invertebrates). Each<br />

week he introduces<br />

a new species found<br />

in his backyard at<br />

Lincoln. His column<br />

aims to raise public<br />

awareness of<br />

biodiversity, the variety<br />

of living things around<br />

us<br />

A NOCTURNAL spider<br />

commonly seen stealthily<br />

lurking inside on the floor,<br />

wall or ceiling is the whitetailed<br />

spider.<br />

There are two species in<br />

New Zealand, one in the<br />

North Island (Lampona<br />

murina) and one in the<br />

South Island (Lampona<br />

cylindrata), but both originate<br />

from Australia where<br />

they are part of a complex<br />

of 57 species.<br />

The South Island species<br />

(L. cylindrata) is the larger<br />

of the two species ranging<br />

from 12-20mm in length<br />

and was first recorded in<br />

Nelson in 1913.<br />

FEARMONGERING: Studies from the New Zealand<br />

Medical Journal in 2004 found no adverse effects<br />

resulted from patients supposedly bitten by whitetailed<br />

spiders. ​<br />

The spiders have grey<br />

bodies with two or four<br />

pale markings on abdomen<br />

as well as the distinctive<br />

creamy-white tail, giving<br />

the spider its name.<br />

The female has a larger<br />

oval abdomen, while the<br />

male’s abdomen is thinner.<br />

They hunt other spiders<br />

– in particular the grey<br />

house spider, another Australian<br />

species.<br />

White-tails go onto webs<br />

of other spiders where the<br />

feign a struggling insect<br />

and ambush the owner.<br />

Considerable media<br />

attention occurred in<br />

the 1990s following unsubstantiated<br />

reports of<br />

SELWYN TIMES<br />

necrotizing arachnidism<br />

from white-tailed spider<br />

bites and has fostered<br />

considerable public anxiety<br />

about these spiders.<br />

However, based on a<br />

New Zealand Medical<br />

Journal article in 2004,<br />

where the authors studied<br />

patients supposedly bitten<br />

by white-tailed spiders,<br />

no adverse effects resulted<br />

from the bites.<br />

In fact none of the<br />

patients actually reported<br />

they observed a whitetailed<br />

spider biting them.<br />

The authors concluded<br />

that “much of the fear that<br />

surrounds these spiders is<br />

unwarranted.”<br />

Gardening<br />

Dig out your gumboots<br />

TASTY: Rhubarb thrives in rich soil<br />

WHILE THE beginning of<br />

winter can be wet, cold and<br />

miserable, there are still<br />

many important tasks to be<br />

carried out in the garden,<br />

such as harvesting winter<br />

vegetables, completing annual<br />

pruning, planting new<br />

fruit trees and watching<br />

newly-planted strawberries<br />

break into growth.<br />

Winter vegetables should<br />

now start maturing and<br />

will be ready for harvesting<br />

(if they aren’t already).<br />

Results will be that much<br />

more improved where vegetable<br />

gardens have been<br />

raised to avoid waterlogging<br />

over the wet winter<br />

months. Continue distributing<br />

compost around<br />

vegetables to help absorb<br />

excess water from typical<br />

winter downfalls. Vegetables<br />

to harvest include<br />

broccoli, brussels sprouts,<br />

cabbage, carrots, cauliflower,<br />

celery, leeks, lettuce,<br />

parsnips, silverbeet and<br />

spinach. Continue sowing<br />

seeds of broad beans,<br />

onions, peas, radish and<br />

spinach directly into well<br />

prepared and drained soil.<br />

Old crowns of rhubarbs<br />

can be divided and replanted<br />

into permanent positions<br />

around 600mm apart.<br />

Rhubarb thrives in rich soil<br />

so add plenty of compost<br />

when planting<br />

Winter displays of annuals<br />

should now be in full<br />

bloom, including alyssum,<br />

calendulas, lobelia, nemesias,<br />

pansies, poppies,<br />

primulas, snapdragons,<br />

stock and sweet peas. All<br />

these flowering annuals can<br />

also be successfully grown<br />

in containers or large tubs<br />

and brings life to dull parts<br />

of the garden or decks during<br />

winter months.<br />

The best selection of<br />

deciduous fruit trees are<br />

now available in garden<br />

centres and it is a good<br />

time to start planting. June<br />

is the main month for<br />

pruning your existing deciduous<br />

fruit trees such as;<br />

apples, apricots, nectarines,<br />

peaches, pears and plums.<br />

With young trees, it’s<br />

important to develop a<br />

strong structure that will<br />

carry fruiting wood in successive<br />

years. Older trees<br />

may require more detailed<br />

pruning. This involves<br />

pruning out old wood that<br />

is no longer providing fruit<br />

and removing overlapping<br />

laterals or branches and<br />

any diseased wood.<br />

You can also prune<br />

raspberries, boysenberries,<br />

loganberries and<br />

gooseberries now. In very<br />

general terms, remove all<br />

old growth, selecting vigorous<br />

growing wood. With<br />

climbing berry plants,<br />

select the strongest canes<br />

and tie them to a supporting<br />

framework.<br />

In June and July, garden<br />

centres are overflowing<br />

with new season ornamental<br />

trees and shrubs.<br />

Preparation of planting<br />

sites is critical.<br />

In most parts of New<br />

Zealand, the rose flowering<br />

season is finished. If leaf<br />

drop is complete, plants<br />

can now be pruned.<br />

Remove all dead wood<br />

and inward growing<br />

branches. Prune to outward<br />

facing buds and remove<br />

any wood that is narrower<br />

than pencil thick. If any<br />

plants have significant die<br />

back, remove it and burn.<br />

Apply a clean up spray<br />

of copper oxychloride after<br />

pruning.<br />

New seasons roses are<br />

now available at garden<br />

centres. When you purchase<br />

your rose, it may<br />

be bare-rooted or potted.<br />

Bare-rooted plants are<br />

generally cheaper and will<br />

need to be planted as soon<br />

as possible. With potted<br />

varieties, be careful not<br />

to disturb the root system<br />

when you plant them.<br />

Roses can grow in a variety<br />

of soils as long as they<br />

have good drainage, so<br />

add in plenty of compost.<br />

Give your rose a generous<br />

watering to help the roots<br />

settle in and put a generous<br />

layer (about 5cm deep) of<br />

mulch around the base of<br />

the plant.<br />

and shrubs.<br />

gardening without guesswork<br />

Question:<br />

Answer:<br />

As we approach<br />

the winter months,<br />

the gardening tasks tend to slow down. Now is a<br />

great time to protect your plants from the cooler<br />

temperatures, so when the single-digit temperatures<br />

arrive, your plants aren’t shocked by the cold. There<br />

are number of things that you can do to protect them,<br />

here are our top tips.<br />

What can I do to protect my garden and plants from the<br />

bitter cold winter months ahead?<br />

Add a 10cm layer of bark mulch or compost to your<br />

gardens. The mulch will help to keep the soil at a<br />

more even temperature, and so the roots don’t suffer<br />

from the frosts. Cover any frost sensitive plants with cloth to protect<br />

them (we’ve already had some good frosts so more are bound to<br />

be on the way!). Make sure you secure them properly, you don’t<br />

want them flying off in the strong winds we get around Canterbury.<br />

Move plants in pots, containers and hanging baskets under some<br />

shelter. If you don’t have a greenhouse or conservatory, the eaves<br />

of the house will be the next best option. Make sure they aren’t<br />

facing the southerly winds, and that the plants are still getting<br />

sunlight!<br />

MY PRIDE AND JOY<br />

SELWYN TIMES<br />

A Chevrolet<br />

experience<br />

It was the sporty stylish look of the 1961 Chevrolet<br />

Impala coupe that first attracted Anneliese to her car.<br />

She was just twenty at the time.<br />

“My father always had old American cars<br />

so it wasn’t a surprise that I shared the same<br />

passion,” explains Anneliese.<br />

“We spent a lot of time looking for a car,<br />

searching and considering options on eBay<br />

then I saw the 61. It was in the days of dial<br />

up Internet so bidding was slow and it took<br />

some time to work out whether I’d won the<br />

auction or not.”<br />

Some years later, Anneliese still owns and<br />

loves her car though it has been changed<br />

over the years, with her Chevrolet Impala<br />

coupe looking quite different from when it<br />

first arrived in New Zealand.<br />

“It’s been an on-going journey of<br />

restoration,” explains Anneliese.<br />

Over the years, the car has been totally<br />

rebuilt. The engine was rebuilt recently<br />

and in 2015 the interior stripped and<br />

refurbished; taken back to the original<br />

factory specification. This included restoring<br />

the window mechanisms, and replacing all<br />

interior hardware and upholstery.<br />

The 1961 Chevrolet Impala coupe has a<br />

348 cu in, Tri-Power, big block V8 engine<br />

which was rebuilt by Rod Allen from New<br />

Plymouth. The 348 cu in, 280hp was a<br />

factory option in 1961.<br />

In January this year, Anneliese took the<br />

car to Muscle Car Madness in Rangiora<br />

where it was judged one of the Top Ten<br />

Cars. The event was a family affair with<br />

husband, Mark and their daughters also<br />

enjoying the weekend.<br />

When Anneliese and Mark got<br />

married, she drove the bridesmaids<br />

to the church in her coupe then Mark<br />

took over the wheel to drive them<br />

to the reception at Mapua wharf in<br />

Nelson.<br />

Anneliese’s Chevrolet has featured<br />

in the New Zealand Hot Rod magazine<br />

and made the journey to the Beach<br />

Hop in Whangamata several times.<br />

The family enjoys attending car events<br />

and Anneliese gets into the spirit,<br />

dressing in 1960s vintage pin-up<br />

fashion. They all enjoy getting out for<br />

a day in Ms Dxie, as the car is fondly<br />

called.<br />

“The 61 rides differently to a<br />

modern car, which we find enjoyable<br />

to drive and I love the nostalgia it offers,”<br />

adds Anneliese.<br />

The 61 Chevrolet was judged a Top Ten<br />

Car at Muscle Car Madness this year.<br />

Named Ms Dxie, Anneliese<br />

was just 20 when she got<br />

her 61 Chevrolet.<br />

MOTORCARE PROFESSIONALS<br />

Winter motoring<br />

The district’s population and tourism<br />

numbers have steadily increased in the last<br />

five years with the result that <strong>Selwyn</strong>’s roads<br />

are now much busier. This and the onset of<br />

winter are good reasons to take extra care on<br />

the roads while having your vehicle serviced,<br />

before the seriously cold weather is on us<br />

will help ensure it is up to the job ahead.<br />

Driving in wintertime can mean<br />

negotiating damp and at times icy roads,<br />

as well as potentially dangerous conditions<br />

when there is heavy rain, hail, sleet, snow or<br />

fog.<br />

Visibility is improved when windscreen<br />

wiper blades are in good condition so<br />

why not have these checked at one of the<br />

automotive service centres around the<br />

district?<br />

After a dry patch, a residue of oil on the<br />

road when combined with a little rain can<br />

make the roads greasy and it will take longer<br />

to stop when braking. This is made worse if<br />

the tread on your tyres is worn or the brakes<br />

are in poor condition. In fact, tyres that are<br />

not road safe is a key reason for many WOF<br />

rejections while poor tyre pressure also<br />

makes vehicle handling and braking more<br />

difficult.<br />

Car batteries work harder in winter,<br />

something that is worth having checked and<br />

replaced if on the brink, to ensure the car will<br />

start on those cold frosty mornings. Most<br />

automotive centres or battery specialists<br />

are able to test the life of a battery in just a<br />

couple of minutes.<br />

You will also want the heater working<br />

properly, while the air conditioning is<br />

a quick and efficient way to demist the<br />

windows so ask your mechanic to check<br />

these as well.<br />

As antifreeze loses its effectiveness<br />

with time, top this up to prevent the<br />

water in your vehicle’s cooling system<br />

from freezing and rust deteriorating the<br />

radiator and engine.<br />

A check over by your mechanic might<br />

also show up any mechanical issues that<br />

could impact on your vehicle’s reliability<br />

or safety factor. They can carry out a<br />

diagnostic test of your vehicle’s electrical<br />

systems too.<br />

Keep an eye on the due date for your<br />

warrant of fitness over winter as your<br />

insurance may be compromised if it has<br />

expired. You will also avoid a fine by<br />

having this up-to-date as well as your<br />

vehicle registered.<br />

Winter motoring means more driving<br />

in poor light or at night. It will be safer if<br />

your headlights are working and correctly<br />

adjusted. This, along with not following<br />

too close, by observing the two second<br />

rule, will mean you have sufficient time<br />

to stop.<br />

Lastly, ensure a clear road ahead before<br />

overtaking and never pass when there<br />

are double yellow lines or a bend ahead<br />

so you and other motorists are safe on<br />

the roads this winter.<br />

By <strong>Selwyn</strong> Veterinary Centre veterinarian Yolande Howell<br />

You may be surprised to find out that<br />

dental and gum disease is the most<br />

common health problem in dogs and cats<br />

– with most developing gum disease by<br />

three years of age. Can you imagine how<br />

bad our teeth would get if we don’t brush<br />

our teeth for three or more years!<br />

Routine dental care for cats and dogs<br />

can be easy and will benefit your pet’s oral<br />

and overall health.<br />

Signs of dental disease may include: bad<br />

breath, yellow or brown deposits on the<br />

teeth, loss of appetite, sensitive to touch<br />

around the mouth, bleeding gums, loose<br />

teeth, difficulty chewing or pawing at the<br />

mouth or face.<br />

So, how does dental disease start? Teeth<br />

and gum disease starts when a film of<br />

bacteria coats the tooth known as plaque.<br />

Plaque hardens into tartar which can be<br />

seen as a thick yellow to brown layer on<br />

the teeth. Tartar irritates the gums and also<br />

creates an environment where bacteria<br />

thrive. As the disease gets worse the gums<br />

become tender, red and swollen. The<br />

gums eventually start pulling away from<br />

the teeth creating pockets that trap more<br />

bacteria and bits of food. As the gums<br />

recede, it may bleed and the tooth root<br />

becomes exposed, teeth may also become<br />

loose. Your pet will very likely feel pain<br />

or discomfort when eating. The bacteria<br />

will eventually enter the blood stream and<br />

they can create health problems and affect<br />

vital organs.<br />

What can we do about this?<br />

Pets, like people, require routine dental<br />

care from you and your vet. Regular<br />

checkups with your vet will help monitor<br />

your pet’s dental health, however if<br />

you suspect a problem don’t hesitate to<br />

contact your vet. After a vet check, they<br />

may recommend a dental procedure to<br />

clean your pet’s teeth and to treat any<br />

dental or gum disease. Unlike people<br />

cats and dogs will not sit in a chair and<br />

open their mouths for us to do these<br />

procedures; they will require general<br />

anaesthesia. Anaesthesia also allows for<br />

tooth extractions and pain medications<br />

are used in these circumstances.<br />

Prevention is definitely better than<br />

cure! There are several methods to help<br />

keep your pet’s teeth and gums clean<br />

and healthy. There are a variety of plaque<br />

reducing foods, treats, chews and toys.<br />

Every animal is different, consult your vet<br />

on which combination of preventatives<br />

would suit your pet best.<br />

There is no substitute for regular<br />

brushing, which is why we do it ourselves<br />

to keep our teeth clean. Start early, pets<br />

can start having their teeth brushed at<br />

home, the younger they are the more<br />

likely you’ll succeed. Start slowly and<br />

gently, like all kinds of training. Reinforce<br />

with rewards and praise.<br />

There are specially designed pet<br />

toothbrushes and finger brushes, or use a<br />

baby toothbrush. Use pet toothpaste only<br />

because toothpaste for people is not safe<br />

for your pets to swallow. Begin by rubbing<br />

your pet’s teeth and gums with a soft finger<br />

brush, reward them and praise them when<br />

they are at ease. Then start incorporating<br />

the pet toothpaste and slowly increase the<br />

number of seconds you brush their teeth.<br />

Focusing on their teeth including the<br />

gum line then work up to <strong>30</strong> seconds of<br />

brushing for each side of the mouth at<br />

least a few times a week. This takes time so<br />

just do it gradually but if you should have<br />

any concerns, contact your vet practice<br />

and they will help you with the process.<br />

Bear in mind that some pets just wouldn’t<br />

tolerate brushing and this is where your<br />

vet can recommend other alternatives as<br />

mentioned above.<br />

If you require further information<br />

don’t hesitate to contact us at the <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

Veterinary Centre.<br />

Top pet tip<br />

Transporting your<br />

pet to and from<br />

the vet can be<br />

difficult. Ensure<br />

every passenger<br />

in the car is safe<br />

by using carriers<br />

that contain your<br />

animal. Keeping an<br />

animal contained,<br />

means they are less<br />

likely to distract<br />

the driver.<br />

Did you know<br />

that carriers can also be used for birthing/<br />

whelping, as an indoor bed and also if a<br />

pet is recovering from surgery. Check<br />

out the range of portable crates at www.<br />

investment portfolio. Managing such<br />

rentals has been less favoured and many<br />

investors are opting to engage a specialist<br />

property manager.<br />

When choosing a property manager,<br />

you will want one who ensures the rent<br />

is collected on time and the home and<br />

its grounds looked after. You will also<br />

want one who is conversant with the<br />

law surrounding rental properties and<br />

problems that can arise.<br />

For example, landlords are required by<br />

law to ensure current and operable smoke<br />

alarms are installed (long-life photoelectric<br />

if no alarms previously). They will also<br />

need to insulate their properties by 1st July<br />

2019, and should observe their insurer’s<br />

requirements like advising when a<br />

property is vacant for an extended period<br />

of time.<br />

It is important to keep evidence of bond<br />

payments and lodge these promptly with<br />

Tenancy Services, holding tenancy details<br />

such as tenant names, record of tenancy<br />

and rent payments made. Reasonable<br />

tenant requests should also be responded<br />

to in a timely manner and the property<br />

kept in a suitable condition with necessary<br />

repairs and maintenance carried out.<br />

Having a property manager makes all<br />

these tasks easier and they can also sort<br />

out any repairs or maintenance needed on<br />

the property should you wish a hands-off<br />

approach to renting.<br />

“Property Managers fulfil the role<br />

of middle person between tenant and<br />

vendor,” explains Brendan Shefford (Big<br />

Red), Business Owner of Ray White<br />

Rolleston and West Melton.<br />

“It’s not uncommon for tenants to ask<br />

when looking at rental properties whether<br />

there will be an independent Property<br />

Manager handling the rental so that<br />

legal requirements and obligations are<br />

observed.”<br />

Rebecca Smith managed a number of<br />

her own rentals before taking on the role<br />

of Rental Manager for Property Brokers;<br />

looking after a large portfolio of rentals<br />

around the Darfield, Kirwee, West Melton,<br />

Rolleston and Burnham areas. She says<br />

that with the changing market and legal<br />

environment, property management has<br />

become far more complex and specialised.<br />

“People skills are essential when liaising<br />

with landlords and tenants to ensure a<br />

smooth tenancy,” suggests Rebecca.<br />

Another concern is the potential for<br />

a property to be contaminated through<br />

drug use. Rebecca advises that Property<br />

Managers can also assist a landlord in<br />

organising a Meth testing before a tenancy<br />

starts and include the option for a test to<br />

be carried out during a tenancy, within the<br />

Tenancy Agreement.<br />

With so many considerations and the<br />

law around rental properties placing more<br />

responsibility on landlords, more people<br />

are likely to look to engage a professional,<br />

to take care of their investment portfolios.<br />

Rental properties must<br />

have current operable<br />

smoke alarms.<br />

Landlords must insulate<br />

their rental properties<br />

Snuggle down<br />

When it comes to home heating, ‘bang<br />

for your buck’ is essential and part of<br />

this is ensuring your home is adequately<br />

insulated. Did you know that a 2% gap in<br />

insulation can result in a 20% heat loss?<br />

This can make a huge difference to the<br />

comfort of your home.<br />

Insulation works by slowing heat loss<br />

from your home, enclosing it in a thermal<br />

envelope. This is why around 40% of heat<br />

is lost through the ceiling in the average<br />

uninsulated home.<br />

In addition to insulation, simple<br />

measures, such as using thermal curtains<br />

2 12 and sealing gaps and cracks, will<br />

eliminate draughts and prevent warm air<br />

escaping where it shouldn’t. It also pays<br />

to remember that heating a room to a<br />

moderate constant temperature is much<br />

more efficient than a fluctuating heat.<br />

Designed to not only be practical and<br />

functional but to enhance the décor<br />

of your home, there is a home-heating<br />

option for every home, and everyone.<br />

GAS FIRES<br />

Providing fast, convenient and easily<br />

regulated heat, gas can bring a moderatesize<br />

room to a warm, comfortable<br />

temperature in about 10-15 minutes.<br />

Glass-fronted gas fireplaces are<br />

significantly more efficient than openfronted<br />

ones, and as gas fires are cleaner<br />

than wood-burning fires they are favoured<br />

in clean-air areas, making this a popular<br />

heating option in Christchurch.<br />

Like other heating options, most<br />

modern gas fires have a timer facility.<br />

HEAT PUMPS<br />

Heat pumps come in a variety of options:<br />

high-wall, floor consoles, slimline, quiet ...<br />

the list goes on, ensuring there is a design,<br />

size and placement to suit your needs.<br />

Be smart about your energy use and<br />

ensure you have the right size heat pump<br />

for your space. If you pick one that is<br />

too small, it will have to work hard all<br />

the time, and will use more power than<br />

necessary. A unit that is the right size<br />

should heat your space in 5-15 minutes.<br />

DUCTED AIR CONDITIONING<br />

Ducted air conditioning systems work<br />

exactly the same way as a high-wall heat<br />

First National Real Estate<br />

pump, in that there is an indoor unit<br />

and an outdoor unit, and by passing a<br />

refrigerant between them they transfer<br />

heat (or cooling) into a room.<br />

Unlike the high-wall system, where the<br />

indoor unit is visible, the ducted indoor<br />

unit is hidden away in the ceiling space<br />

and uses flexible ducts to pass the heat<br />

from room to room through vents in the<br />

ceiling, wall or floor.<br />

CENTRAL HEATING<br />

Growing in popularity in New Zealand,<br />

warm-water central heating is the even<br />

distribution of heat throughout the home<br />

from a central point or heat source. Warm<br />

water is distributed via a network of pipes<br />

connected to radiators in each room, or<br />

looped under the floor for underfloor<br />

heating. Releasing a gentle heat, no water<br />

is actually consumed, ensuring this is the<br />

ultimate in efficiency.<br />

HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM<br />

Home heating isn’t just about keeping the<br />

house warm; it’s also about maintaining<br />

a healthy home. In the summer months<br />

we are able to throw open the windows to<br />

air the house, an option not available in<br />

cooler weather, meaning condensation is<br />

often an unhealthy side effect of winter.<br />

The installation of an effective heatrecovery<br />

or ventilation system can help<br />

solve this problem, thereby working<br />

towards creating a warmer, drier and,<br />

above all, healthier living environment.<br />

WOOD BURNERS<br />

When used properly, wood burners are a<br />

great and economical option, especially if<br />

you have access to free or cheap firewood.<br />

You do, however, need to ensure your<br />

fire is clean-air approved, especially in<br />

Canterbury. When buying a wood fire,<br />

consider efficiency rating, clean burn,<br />

emission levels and size.<br />

PELLET BURNERS<br />

Pellet fires have come a long way in recent<br />

years and most are now available as<br />

free-standing or inbuilt, offering a wider<br />

variety when it comes to selecting the<br />

right look for your space.<br />

There are many benefits to a pellet<br />

burner as they offer all the warmth and<br />

luxury of a flame without the hassle of<br />

cutting, carrying and storing firewood.<br />

Made from sawmill waste, the pellets are<br />

carbon-neutral and burn cleanly.<br />

One of the biggest limitations is the<br />

initial cost, with the price of buying and<br />

installing a pellet burner greater than<br />

that of a conventional wood burner. The<br />

burner also relies on electricity so won’t<br />

work during a power cut.<br />
