Maddie’s treatment<br />

jumps to $750,000<br />

• By Gabrielle Stuart<br />

A TWO-WEEK trip to a United States<br />

hospital may mean the chance of a<br />

normal life for West Melton schoolgirl<br />

Maddie Collins – but it comes at a<br />

cost.<br />

The cost of a kidney replacement<br />

at The John Hopkins<br />

Hospital in Baltimore was<br />

initially estimated at<br />

about $350,000, but<br />

is now expected<br />

to cost more<br />

than $700,000.<br />

The 13-yearold<br />

and her<br />

family spent<br />

two weeks<br />

there being<br />

tested to see if<br />

the treatment<br />

was possible and<br />

if any of their<br />

kidneys would<br />

match and could<br />

be donated.<br />

Vehicles<br />

can be<br />

clamped<br />

says bar<br />

owner<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

A NEW bar and cafe is adamant<br />

it can clamp or tow away<br />

non-customers’ vehicles, even<br />

though the district council says<br />

the matter is unresolved.<br />

The Black Door Bar and<br />

Eatery opens in Lincoln on<br />

Friday on the site of the old Tea<br />

House on Robert St.<br />

Clamping and tow away<br />

signs appeared several weeks<br />

ago covering five parallel car<br />

parks outside the bar and seven<br />

outside the adjacent Lincoln<br />

Village Pre-School and Nursery.<br />

Two of the signs outside the<br />

nursery have been removed in<br />

the past week. But the district<br />

council is still considering legal<br />

advice over whether the signage<br />

complies with the resource<br />

consent.<br />

Black Door owner Anita<br />

Alder has not been responding<br />

to questions from the <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

<strong>Times</strong> about the issue.<br />

But she has stated its case on<br />

the Black Door’s Facebook page<br />

after a post over the issue.<br />

Ms Alder said there was a<br />

resource consent on the 12 car<br />

parks that are registered to<br />

6 Robert St for the use of the<br />

business.<br />

THE<br />

EDITOR’S<br />

DESK<br />

JUST WHEN Maddie Collins and<br />

her family thought things couldn’t<br />

get any worse, they received more<br />

bad news during their trip to the<br />

United States.<br />

Treatment for the West Melton<br />

teenager for kidney replacement<br />

and treatment has now jumped<br />

from $350,000 to $750,000 as we<br />

reveal on page 1.<br />

That’s one heck of a mountain to<br />

climb.<br />

Maddie and her family spent<br />

two weeks in Baltimore being<br />

tested to see if the treatment was<br />

possible and if any of their kidneys<br />

would match and could be donated.<br />

They are still waiting on the<br />

test results.<br />

And more today on the ongoing<br />

wheel clamping saga in Lincoln<br />

(see page 1).<br />

The district council is saying<br />

little, but the Black Door owner<br />

has opened up on that very public<br />

Major plans for tavern site<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

PLANS FOR a major<br />

redevelopment at the Prebbleton<br />

Tavern site are still in the<br />

pipeline.<br />

It has been nearly six months<br />

since an application for resource<br />

consent to develop a complex<br />

involving a motel, two cinemas,<br />

retail, offices,<br />

health care<br />

services, and<br />

food and<br />

beverage<br />

outlets was<br />

lodged with<br />

the district<br />

Malcolm Lyall<br />

council.<br />

THe<br />

application<br />

was made by Prebbleton Hotel<br />

Ltd.<br />

THe new development would<br />

be located at the 7000m2 hotel<br />

site on the corner of Springs Rd<br />

and Tosswill Rds.<br />

THe district council asked<br />

for more details about the plan<br />

several months ago.<br />

But the application process<br />

was then put on hold by<br />

Prebbleton Hotel Ltd, a district<br />

council spokesman told the<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong> last week.<br />

Prebbleton Hotel Ltd<br />

spokesman Shannon Gilmore,<br />

BIG CHANGES: Major redevelopments for the Prebbleton Tavern site are on its way.<br />

PHOTO: GILBERT WEALLEANS<br />

who manages the tavern, would<br />

not comment to the <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

<strong>Times</strong>.<br />

Plans submitted to the district<br />

council show the development<br />

would have a 34 single room<br />

motel complex, and a 50-seat<br />

and 54-seat cinema.<br />

A total of 107 car parks and 40<br />

cycle parks would be provided<br />

along with two access ways to<br />

the area.<br />

THe township is expected<br />

to grow by an additional 1295<br />

households by 2041.<br />

THe Prebbleton Structure Plan,<br />

adopted by the district council,<br />

identifies more infrastructure<br />

and community facilities are<br />

needed to support the projected<br />

growth.<br />

THe application said it<br />

sought to retain the Prebbleton<br />

Tavern on site which was<br />

recognised as a focal point in the<br />

township.<br />

THe tavern, established in<br />

<strong>18</strong>68, is recognised as one of<br />

two of the most prominent<br />

historic buildings in the<br />

township.<br />

Deputy Mayor Malcolm Lyall<br />

said while he welcomes the<br />

redevelopment, he had concerns<br />

the owners may be trying to put<br />

too much on one site.<br />

“I just hope whatever they do<br />

is architecturally in context with<br />

the building and the heritage of<br />

Prebbleton,” he said.<br />

THe Tosswill Rd site has been<br />

used for a variety of industrial<br />

type activities in the past.<br />

In Brief<br />

GRAFFITI STATISTICS<br />

Seven incidents of graffiti have<br />

been reported to the district<br />

council this year. One incident<br />

was reported in Rolleston, two<br />

in Lincoln, two on Main South<br />

Rd, one in Prebbleton and one in<br />

Windwhistle. The tags were on<br />

toilet blocks, speed signs, sheds<br />

and bus stops. A district council<br />

spokesman said not all graffiti<br />

incidents are necessarily reported.<br />

Some incidents may have been<br />

reported to police or Orion for<br />

tagged power boxes.<br />

SPEED WARNING<br />

Police are warning drivers caught<br />

driving at excess speeds through<br />

road works will have their licence<br />

suspended for 28 days if they are<br />

40km/h over the limit. A temporary<br />

speed limit of 60km/h is in<br />

place for road works on the Main<br />

South Rd, Rolleston. Sergeant<br />

Alex Pickover said police have<br />

caught drivers clocking more than<br />

90km/h through the roadworks<br />

with one person doing 105km/h.<br />

NEW ASB BRANCH<br />

Lincoln’s ASB branch will open at<br />

its new site on Gerald St, next to<br />

the police station on Monday. The<br />

bank’s current lease at William<br />

St has expired. Customer service<br />

officer Melanie Bhana said the<br />

branch will have the same number<br />

of staff as it does now.<br />

Getting to the toilets<br />

TOUGH:<br />

Maddie<br />

has to have<br />

dialysis every<br />

night, and<br />

regularly has<br />

to visit Starship<br />

Children’s<br />

Hospital for<br />

treatment.<br />

Maddie’s treatment<br />

jumps to $750,000<br />

•From page 1<br />

They are still waiting on the test<br />

results.<br />

This year, Maddie was told<br />

the daily dialysis treatment she<br />

is on has put so much strain<br />

on her heart, she is at risk of a<br />

heart attack while she stays on<br />

it – making the need for a kidney<br />

transplant more urgent.<br />

Her mother, Sarah Manson<br />

Collins, said the family was doing<br />

their best to stay positive.<br />

She said they could get a call<br />

from the hospital at any point to<br />

say they had found a kidney that<br />

was a match for Maddie, so they<br />

had to be ready to fly back to the<br />

United States at short notice.<br />

But she said Maddie was glad to<br />

be home again.<br />

“She’s just happy to be back<br />

with her horses,” she said.<br />

The treatment offered in the<br />

United States, which is not available<br />

in New Zealand, makes it<br />

less likely Maddie’s body will<br />

reject a donated kidney, even if it<br />

is not a perfect match.<br />

Maddie’s father, Adam Collins,<br />

donated one of his kidneys to her<br />

in 2012, but her body rejected it.<br />

Givealittle pages have already<br />

raised more than $90,000 for<br />

Maddie, and tickets for a fundraising<br />

night later this month<br />

have already sold out.<br />

Donated items, including<br />

artwork and signed sports jerseys,<br />

at Tai Tapu a mission<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

LOCATING THE Tai Tapu<br />

public toilets has turned into a<br />

mission for visitors travelling<br />

through the township.<br />

Confusing signage is making<br />

it difficult for travellers to track<br />

down the recently upgraded<br />

public toilets at the Rhodes<br />

Domain off the Old Tai Tapu<br />

Rd.<br />

The trouble begins when motorists<br />

first see a standard toilet<br />

sign located on State Highway<br />

75 at the intersection of the Old<br />

Tai Tapu Rd and Lincoln Tai<br />

Tapu Rd.<br />

The sign points towards The<br />

Store located at 687 Christchurch<br />

Akaroa Rd rather than the<br />

Old Tai Tapu Rd.<br />

It is located about 1.6km from<br />

the toilets and no sign is in<br />

place at the domain.<br />

Tai Tapu Library chairman<br />

Robert White can guarantee<br />

every time his volunteer-run<br />

library is open, three quarters of<br />

people who come in to see him<br />

will ask about the toilets.<br />

The Store duty manager<br />

Hayley Jensen said the cafe gets<br />

between six to 12 people a week<br />

PROBLEMATIC: A sign<br />

on State Highway 75 has<br />

left visitors to Tai Tapu<br />

confused.<br />

asking where the toilets are.<br />

“Happens all the time, we<br />

don’t mind,” she said.<br />

Mr White has brought the<br />

issue of a sign needing to be at<br />

the domain up with the district<br />

council and the Tai Tapu Community<br />

Committee before.<br />

He said he would like additional<br />

toilet signs in the township<br />

clearly worded where the<br />

toilets are located.<br />

“It is such a simple, easy thing<br />

to do and it just defies logic so<br />

I thought I would give them a<br />

stir-up,” he said.<br />

Committee chairman Gerald<br />

Carter said the signage issue<br />

was brought up at its last meeting<br />

with district councillor<br />

Grant Miller and is being<br />

pursued.<br />

New public toilets are<br />

planned to be included in the<br />

Tai Tapu community centre at<br />

the Rhodes park.<br />

Cr Miller said the issue<br />

should be able to be easily<br />

resolved.<br />

Council funding policy under fire<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

PLANS TO have the district<br />

council increase its standard<br />

funding for the rebuild of the<br />

Lakeside Soldiers Memorial<br />

Hall has drawn criticism over its<br />

policy on funding of community<br />

centres.<br />

The district<br />

council approved<br />

a decision to<br />

increase its<br />

original funding<br />

of $167,788 to<br />

$417,697 for the<br />

Mark<br />

Alexander<br />

hall’s rebuild at<br />

its meeting last<br />

Wednesday.<br />

Dedicated to<br />

commemorating the 14 Lakeside<br />

men who lost their lives in World<br />

War 1, the original hall was<br />

damaged beyond repair in the<br />

February 22, 2011, earthquake.<br />

The new hall is estimated to<br />

cost $1,670,788.<br />

A presentation was made by<br />

professor Ian Lochhead on the<br />

hall’s importance to the community<br />

and was accompanied by the<br />

hall management committee.<br />

The new facility to be located<br />

on Harts Rd will include a multipurpose<br />

hall, a courtyard, kitchen<br />

and bar, storage, bathrooms<br />

and a service room.<br />

REBUILD: Plans showing the exterior of the Lakeside Soldiers Memorial Hall from the courtyard and an interior view of the “long room.”<br />

Professor Lochhead said the<br />

hall was sorely missed by the<br />

community as it was a key place<br />

for major events.<br />

Nearly $50,000 had already<br />

been raised already by the community.<br />

But a debate was ignited at the<br />

meeting over the district council’s<br />

lack of consultation with the<br />

community over the funding<br />

boost.<br />

At the meeting, district councillor<br />

Mark Alexander said the<br />

funding should have been in the<br />

Annual Plan <strong>2017</strong>/20<strong>18</strong> consultation.<br />

“I am very disappointed that<br />

one month after the adoption of<br />

the Annual Plan we are asked to<br />

increase the council subsidy for<br />

this building,” he said.<br />

Cr Alexander and Cr Watson<br />

did not vote for the increase.<br />

Hall Management Committee<br />

chairman Dennis Carter said if<br />

the funding was not increased<br />

it would struggle and the court<br />

yard may need to be cut from the<br />

project.<br />

“It would be an embarrassment<br />

to the district council and<br />

to us,” he said.<br />

Professor Lochhead said a firm<br />

commitment was made by the<br />

district council to reinstate the<br />

hall when consent was granted<br />

for demolition in 2013.<br />

The district council’s general<br />

practice is to provide a grant of<br />

10 per cent towards the capital<br />

cost of new community centres<br />

rather than the 25 per cent it will<br />

for the Lakeside hall.<br />

Increased funding on an average<br />

of 27 per cent granted for<br />

the West Melton, Tai Tapu and<br />

Dunsandel community centres<br />

recently.<br />

As part of the draft Long-Term<br />

Plan 20<strong>18</strong>-2019 consultation is to<br />

be held on the introduction of a<br />

new district-wide rate for community<br />

centres and halls.<br />

District councillor Pat McEvedy<br />

said Lakeside had the right<br />

to rebuild their community.<br />

Said district councillor Grant<br />

Miller: “I think we have got ourselves<br />

to blame for this situation<br />

. . . now more than ever we need<br />

a district-wide policy.”<br />

A building and resource consent<br />

for the building will be lodged<br />

next month with plans for it to be<br />

completed by August 20<strong>18</strong>.<br />

Team for new Lincoln school<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

A SCHOOL principal, holiday<br />

programme business owner and<br />

a senior lecturer are part of the<br />

team behind the establishment<br />

of a new school in Lincoln.<br />

Appointed by the Ministry of<br />

Education, the establishment<br />

board has been meeting weekly<br />

since May to plan the opening of<br />

the new Lincoln school in early<br />

2019.<br />

Former property lawyer Suzy<br />

Petersen is chairwoman of the<br />

establishment board while Busy<br />

Bumbles owner Rebecca Scott is<br />

deputy.<br />

Ladbrooks Primary School<br />

principal Penny O’Brien, Lincoln<br />

University senior lecturer<br />

Amanda Black, Halswell Primary<br />

School Louise Ponce also<br />

make up the board.<br />

The school, currently known<br />

as Lincoln South Primary, will<br />

be built in two stages.<br />

Stage one of the $14 million<br />

project will cater for 450<br />

students with a final roll of 700<br />

when stage two is completed.<br />

While a site is yet to be signed<br />

off, it will be situated on the<br />

south side of the Lincoln township.<br />

It will be a full primary school<br />

for year 1 to 8 pupils.<br />

An official name for the school<br />

is yet to be established.<br />

Establishment board chairwoman<br />

Suzy Petersen, said<br />

the vision of the school is yet<br />

to be finalised with further<br />

consultation with the community<br />

planned over the next few<br />

months.<br />

The first round of consultation<br />

over the school was held in<br />

August last year.<br />

“I am relatively new to the<br />

community and I am excited<br />

to get involved . . . hopefully<br />

my wee baby girl will go to the<br />

primary school when she is at<br />

school age,” Mrs Petersen said.<br />

Ms Alder responded on<br />

Facebook: “At present we have<br />

residents ignoring both ours and<br />

the district council’s signage and<br />

using them as private parks, not<br />

very cool really.”<br />

She said the district council<br />

was “gearing up for enforcement<br />

across the board”.<br />

“Enforcement will apply<br />

. . . we are just working through<br />

how and by whom,” she said.<br />

She was working with the<br />

district council to determine<br />

whether the district council<br />

or Black Door would enforce<br />

restrictions.<br />

He also would not discuss the<br />

Versatile role for new fire appliance<br />

LINCOLN IS the first fire<br />

brigade in the country to have<br />

a new appliance featuring the<br />

new Fire and Emergency New<br />

Zealand branding.<br />

The new Iveco vehicle<br />

replaces the existing model<br />

which is set up as the primary<br />

appliance to respond to motor<br />

vehicle crashes and rescues.<br />

The new branding for the<br />

appliance named LINC417<br />

will reflect the significant<br />

change to fire and emergency<br />

management throughout the<br />

country.<br />

Fire and Emergency New<br />

Zealand, an amalgamation<br />

of the New Zealand Fire Service,<br />

the National Rural Fire<br />

Authority, 12 enlarged rural<br />

fire districts and 26 territorial<br />

authority rural fire authorities<br />

became an amalgamated organisation<br />

at the start of <strong>July</strong>.<br />

Lincoln’s chief fire officer<br />

Jeremy Greenwood said the<br />

new appliance continues a<br />

long tradition of Lincoln<br />

firefighters having modern<br />

and effective equipment<br />

to protect the local<br />

community.<br />

“It’s always a special<br />

occasion to get a new<br />

appliance. Firefighters rely on<br />

their equipment as well<br />

as their teammates to get<br />

the job done efficiently and<br />

effectively and we’re very<br />

fortunate to be able to utilise<br />

the newest gear.<br />

Mr Greenwood said<br />

residents will soon get used to<br />

seeing the new look on the appliance<br />

as it operates through<br />

the area.<br />

The new appliance was<br />

delivered to the station in<br />

early <strong>July</strong> by Canterbury area<br />

commander Dave Berry who<br />

said he was delighted the<br />

first appliance with the new<br />

branding was supplied to a<br />

local brigade.<br />

“Lincoln is one of the busiest<br />

volunteer fire brigades in Canterbury<br />

and the new appliance<br />

will be well utilised in this fast<br />

growing part of the region,”<br />

he said.<br />

Mr Berry said it can attend a<br />

variety of incidents.<br />

He said it will respond to<br />

vehicle crashes and therefore<br />

carries significant specialist<br />

equipment as well as medical<br />

supplies.<br />

The appliance also contains<br />

a large assortment of<br />

firefighting equipment and<br />

carries up to 1300-litres of<br />

water.<br />

Existing Lincoln appliances<br />

and support vehicles will be<br />

re-branded over upcoming<br />

months.<br />

Cup to honour football great<br />

FOOTBALL great Steve Sumner<br />

will be remembered at the<br />

Christchurch Casino Golden<br />

Oldies Sports Celebration 20<strong>18</strong>,<br />

with teams to play for a trophy<br />

in his name.<br />

The inaugural Steve Sumner<br />

Cup will be unveiled at the<br />

week-long Golden Oldies World<br />

Football Festival, as part of<br />

the overall event that will run<br />

throughout April.<br />

Golden Oldies Football manager<br />

for the event and former All<br />

Whites captain, Earle Thomas,<br />

said it was a privilege to be the<br />

first event to honour Sumner’s<br />

contribution to football.<br />

“We are extremely grateful<br />

to Steve’s family for allowing<br />

us to name the cup for the first<br />

division competition at Golden<br />

Oldies World Football Festival<br />

in his honour.”<br />

Sumner captained the All<br />

Whites to their first ever world<br />

cup finals appearance in Spain<br />

in 1982, and was synonymous<br />

with Christchurch United in the<br />

1970s and 80s.<br />

He died in February after a<br />

long battle with prostate cancer.<br />

“The Sumner family want to<br />

keep Steve’s legacy alive and are<br />

happy for the Golden Oldies<br />

event to name the cup in his<br />

HONOUR: Golden Oldies<br />

honour. We felt it was very fitting<br />

with the event being held<br />

in Steve’s hometown and being<br />

played for by footballers who<br />

participate for the sheer love of<br />

the game,” Mr Thomas said.<br />

The Steve Sumner Cup will be<br />

played for by the division one<br />

teams.<br />

There are expected to be more<br />

than 60 football teams taking<br />

part in a number of categories<br />

LEGENDS: Steve Sumner is challenged by Scottish legend<br />

Kenny Dalglish at the 1982 World Cup.<br />

and age groups from across the<br />

country and overseas.<br />

Mr Thomas said the cup<br />

would be contested at the<br />

biennial Golden Oldies World<br />

Football Festival and at a local<br />

tournament in Christchurch in<br />

alternate years.<br />

The Golden Oldies World<br />

Football Festival will be played<br />

from April 15-22 at Hagley Park.<br />

It is one of 10 sports – rugby,<br />

hockey, netball, basketball,<br />

cricket, squash, golf, lawns bowls<br />

and football – which make up<br />

the month long event expected<br />

to attract 10,000 people.<br />

Call out for<br />

volunteers<br />

NEARLY 1000 volunteers<br />

are needed to help run the<br />

Christchurch Casino Golden<br />

Oldies Sports Celebration 20<strong>18</strong>.<br />

The event, which is expected<br />

to bring about 10,000 people to<br />

the city, would combine 10 sports<br />

over April.<br />

Event director Peter McDermott<br />

said they were calling for volunteers<br />

to help run the event and<br />

boost the visitor experience for<br />

both national and international<br />

guests. Roles will include umpiring,<br />

refereeing, scoring, or setting<br />

up equipment, among others.<br />

Volunteers must be over <strong>18</strong>,<br />

available for a minimum of three<br />

costs. Volunteers will be provided<br />

with branded clothing, meal<br />

vouchers, training, a certificate of<br />

appreciation and an invitation to<br />

a thank you function.<br />

Build your next home<br />

with Artisan Homes<br />

Your local registered Master Builder<br />

Home building is as much about understanding the<br />

landscape and the client as it is the plan and the<br />

materials. From our office in Rolleston, Canterbury our<br />

small company has built a huge range of homes that are<br />

distinctive, stylish, durable and cost-effective.<br />

From clever, compact homes to three bedroom townhouses<br />

to large scale, expansive country style homes, our work<br />

spans all types of house building.<br />

Since 2004 we have carefully built, among other things, a<br />

reputation for constructing high quality houses.<br />

An artisan is someone who is highly skilled in a particular<br />

expertise, a hands-on craftsman – someone who is<br />

passionate about the quality results they produce.<br />

With decades in the business the team at Artisian Homes<br />

have worked in all areas of residential construction. There<br />

are obvious differences between building a two-bedroom<br />

home compared to a six bedroom one. Irrespective, our<br />

overall approach remains the same.<br />

While we have a sound reputation for carefully crafted<br />

home building we also are renowned for getting the right<br />

result no matter what the challenge. Building with difficult<br />

access, looming timelines or tight budgets is just a fact of<br />

life for us. All our tradespeople are qualified and registered<br />

or licensed. Our abilities to design and build a range of<br />

houses have increased over the years, as has our skill and<br />

overall capacity. While we don’t have the franchises of our<br />

larger competitors we do have their networks and buying<br />

power. Which means our clients receive the most costeffective<br />

results possible.<br />

At Artisan Homes, our passion is building homes for<br />

people who appreciate the work that goes into what will,<br />

ultimately, be a home they love to live in.<br />

Dearna Doglione<br />

Passing on confidence to aspiring<br />

Dearna Doglione,<br />

20, of Rolleston<br />

has spearheaded<br />

Christchurch’s first<br />

hui for women in<br />

theatre to help resolve<br />

gender imbalance in<br />

Canterbury’s theatre<br />

industry. She spoke<br />

to Georgia O’Connor-<br />

Harding<br />

How does it feel to have<br />

helped put together the first<br />

Christchurch Hui for Women<br />

in Theatre?<br />

I think at first I found the idea<br />

daunting of bringing together a<br />

large group of women that I have<br />

looked up to, been inspired by<br />

and watched be phenomenal on<br />

stage and backstage. But once<br />

we started meeting I realised it<br />

wasn’t about who organised it,<br />

it was about women getting together<br />

talking about their issues<br />

and supporting each other.<br />

Tell me about some of the<br />

research you did while studying<br />

at the National Academy Of<br />

Singing and Dramatic Art?<br />

The general idea I found was<br />

not enough women stories<br />

were being told that were not<br />

about a man’s journey and the<br />

women being a side-character.<br />

I was finding that in shows on<br />

stage and I realised there was a<br />

reason behind this – there were<br />

not enough female playwrights,<br />

directors, producers or artistic<br />

directors.<br />

How do you find the Canterbury<br />

theatre scene?<br />

Auckland has multiple theatres<br />

and underground theatres – theatres<br />

that have the opportunity<br />

to put on work that they might<br />

not think will actually sale.<br />

There is this misunderstanding<br />

that work about women intrinsically<br />

will not sale because it is<br />

not what done. But you look at<br />

Songs For Nobodies starring Ali<br />

Harper that is on at The Court<br />

Theatre now. It is a one-woman<br />

show that is selling and doing<br />

amazingly. It is written by a<br />

female starring a female about<br />

the lives of 12 different women.<br />

I think it is evidence enough<br />

in itself. There is Steel Magnolias<br />

coming up at The Court<br />

Theatre in August. It is starring<br />

four of The Court Theatre’s staple<br />

performers and is about the<br />

bond a group of women share in<br />

a small-town community.<br />

Would you like to see more<br />

shows like this in the area?<br />

EMPOWERING:<br />

Rolleston<br />

performer<br />

Dearna Doglione<br />

has helped<br />

organise the<br />

first meeting in<br />

Christchurch<br />

with other<br />

women in<br />

theatre to<br />

address gender<br />

imbalance.<br />

PHOTO:<br />

WENDY RILEY ​<br />

Yes, this show is an exception.<br />

It is amazing to see a show that<br />

is being led by four powerful,<br />

amazing, talented females. You<br />

would just hope it had a woman’s<br />

voice in direction but you can’t<br />

have everything at once.<br />

What were some of the<br />

actions that were decided upon<br />

at the hui?<br />

Our two main things that<br />

came out of it was an idea of<br />

a mentorship programme for<br />

young women coming into the<br />

industry to not face the same<br />

things we know happen. To have<br />

another woman mentor who<br />

has gone through the industry<br />

and knows what is okay and<br />

what is not and teaching them<br />

how stand up for themselves<br />

and how to be brave – not get<br />

pushed around in the industry.<br />

The other outcome we discussed<br />

was searching for parity of pay<br />

backstage, on stage and at an<br />

artistic level.<br />

What is generally the<br />

difference of pay between men<br />

and women in the industry?<br />

We want to research this. From<br />

my research in the general workforce<br />

a woman earns 77 cents<br />

for every dollar a man earns<br />

for doing the same job. If we do<br />

not enact a change to this, the<br />

International Labour Organisation<br />

estimates the wage gap will<br />

not close until 2086. That is not<br />

okay. What we are saying is there<br />

should be a base rate.<br />

Are you feeling optimistic<br />

for theatre in Canterbury after<br />

having this meeting?<br />

I am. Because when we get<br />

together we realise we are all<br />

feeling the same way and going<br />

through the same hardships and<br />

we are not going to stand for it<br />

anymore. We had women including<br />

myself just out of drama<br />

school and we have seasoned<br />

professionals who know the<br />

game.<br />

The industry is already<br />

tough as it is, it must be difficult<br />

to have this on top of<br />

everything?<br />

We had a lot of stories from<br />

women at the meeting of just<br />

things in the rehearsal room of<br />

not being treated the same as<br />

their male counterparts, or when<br />

it came to booking a job they<br />

were treated differently - it was<br />

horrible to hear.<br />

SELWYN TIMES Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi<br />

Tuesday <strong>July</strong> <strong>18</strong> <strong>2017</strong> 13<br />

performers<br />

Tell me about your work<br />

you are doing in Rolleston?<br />

I teach singing lessons.<br />

I only have three pupils.<br />

I like to keep it to a small<br />

amount so I can put my<br />

time and effort into them. I<br />

also teach them basic piano<br />

skills. We pick a song they<br />

like and then one I think<br />

they need to work on.<br />

One girl sings music from<br />

fantasy film Moana and<br />

also something from musical<br />

Fiddler on the Roof.<br />

Do you think there is<br />

room for theatre to grow<br />

in <strong>Selwyn</strong>?<br />

Totally, I want to start<br />

up drama classes when<br />

my schedule isn’t crazy.<br />

There are so many parents<br />

keen to get their kids<br />

into drama. It is not just<br />

about singing and acting,<br />

it is about confidence and<br />

teaching kids they have a<br />

voice and they can use it.<br />

I used to teach swimming<br />

and I taught so many kids<br />

who had no confidence in<br />

themselves.<br />

How was training at<br />

NASDA?<br />

NASDA is a very full-on<br />

degree. They talk about<br />

“NASDA life” – it becomes<br />

all engrossing. I graduated<br />

last year and now work<br />

there part time in assisting<br />

operations- such as stage<br />

managing and helping out<br />

with costumes.<br />

What are your personal<br />

goals as a performer?<br />

I want to be able to make<br />

a living in this industry.<br />

Whether that is overseas<br />

or nationally. This year I<br />

am focusing on myself as a<br />

person and next year I am<br />

going hard at auditioning.<br />

NASDA is such a full-on<br />

world that once you leave<br />

it you have changed so<br />

much as a person and need<br />

to take time to find where<br />

you sit in the world. My<br />

end-goal from the moment<br />

I applied to NASDA was to<br />

play Elphaba in Wicked.<br />

Tell me about your<br />

favourite show at<br />

NASDA The Collective?<br />

That show was the first<br />

time I felt like I knew what<br />

acting was. I hadn’t done<br />

a full-length play before.<br />

This is the first time I got to<br />

build a character and follow<br />

her through the whole<br />

play. It was the first time I<br />

worked with a director who<br />

wasn’t my teacher. I was<br />

treated as an actor not a<br />

student. It was with amazing<br />

Christchurch acting<br />

director Melanie Luckman<br />

who inspired me. She<br />

inspired the idea for the<br />

mentorship programme<br />

because she is a powerful<br />

lady who I have looked up<br />

to before meeting her. Now<br />

we are friends and I take<br />

donuts to her child.<br />

Did you grow up here?<br />

Yes, I went to Rolleston<br />

School and Lincoln High<br />

School. I was a very shy<br />

person up until mid-high<br />

school when I decided I<br />

wanted to be an actor.<br />

Do you think the arts<br />

helped put yourself out<br />

there?<br />

Totally, that is why I<br />

want to have a drama programme<br />

out here. I always<br />

felt more confident as a<br />

character than as myself<br />

until I realised I had something<br />

to offer as myself. I<br />

want to pass that lesson on<br />

to anyone I can.<br />

CultureFest returns<br />

Following the success of its inaugural event, this year’s CultureFest<br />

will take place on Sunday 1 October at Lincoln Event Centre from<br />

11am–4pm. The event is organised by <strong>Selwyn</strong> District Council in<br />

partnership with the Rotary Club of Lincoln, Christchurch Multi-<br />

Cultural Council, and community representatives. Organisers are<br />

seeking cultural/ethnic performance groups and craftspeople to<br />

showcase the diversity of the growing <strong>Selwyn</strong> district. If you are a<br />

member of a group that would be interested in participating, contact<br />

Dave Tippett on 347 2719 or events@selwyn.govt.nz for more<br />

information. Applications close on Friday 4 August.<br />

Taking play<br />

up a level<br />

Work on<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong>’s first<br />

‘destination<br />

playground’ is<br />

set to begin.<br />

Construction of the new playground at Foster Park in Rolleston is planned<br />

to start in early September and be completed by early 20<strong>18</strong>.<br />

The new playground is expected to attract a wide range of ages. A key<br />

feature is a large four metre high mound with a slide and a flying fox. A<br />

fort on top of the mound has a tunnel slide winding to the ground. The<br />

playground also features a natural play area and a mouse wheel along with<br />

other popular playground equipment.<br />

Explore <strong>Selwyn</strong> – Dracophyllum Flat Track<br />

The Dracophyllum Flat Track hosts a variety of native flora,<br />

stunning views and local birdlife. It winds through the Craigieburn<br />

Forest Park, climbing part-way up the mountain ranges to an<br />

open grassy plain with a 360 degree view of nearby mountains.<br />

Along the way stop off at the popular picnic site, sheltered by redbrown<br />

Dracophyllum, native tussock and bordered by the flowing<br />

Broken River. After your picnic, cross the river on the pole bridge,<br />

stop for a great photo opportunity, and then head up the track for<br />

five minutes to the clearing.<br />

The track is mostly well-formed, however some sections can be<br />

muddy or rough so we recommend sturdy walking shoes or light<br />

tramping shoes. The track is gradually sloped however there are<br />

some steep sections.<br />

Check out our Facebook page for a video of this fantastic walk.<br />

An artist’s impression of the planned playground<br />

The play elements were chosen based on feedback from local school children who were surveyed<br />

on their playground preferences. The survey results showed strong support for a mouse wheel,<br />

followed by a big slide, a fort and a flying fox.<br />

The playground will be very accessible with a promenade along the side of it, wide paths running<br />

through and a koru-shaped path leading to the top of the mound.<br />

A variety of surfaces including artificial turf, rubber softfall and wood chip will make the<br />

playground a safe environment for children of all ages. Decking and picnic areas will have shade<br />

sails and there will also be native and exotic trees and shrubs.<br />

Time: 45 minutes one way<br />

Elevation: <strong>18</strong>40m<br />

Difficulty: Medium, not suitable<br />

for buggies or wheelchairs.<br />

Dogs on leash are permitted.<br />

How to get there: The track<br />

starts part way up Craigieburn<br />

Park Road, park in the picnic<br />

area and walk up. The picnic<br />

area is signposted from SH73.<br />

It is located about 1 hour 20<br />

minutes from Rolleston or<br />

around an hour from Darfield.<br />

Science Snippets: Adventures to<br />

the Moon!<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> District Libraries host one hour sessions after school each<br />

term which are delivered by Science Alive! These ‘Science Snippets’<br />

have a different theme each term.<br />

In Term 3 children can enjoy ‘Adventures to the Moon!’ a<br />

programme which will teach children about the Moon and its<br />

relationship with the Earth. Children will enjoy a hands-on hour of<br />

astronomy including making a Moon phase dial, creating craters<br />

Looking for a carpool buddy?<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> commuters can now access Smart Travel Canterbury, which<br />

aims to save time, money, and reduce congestion by matching<br />

travellers with like-minded individuals.<br />

Users can match with commuters who share similar routes using<br />

the new Smart Travel app, which is available for download at the<br />

App Store or on Google Play.<br />

The app and website (www.smarttravel.org.nz) allow users to<br />

enter their starting point and destination, their days and times for<br />

departure and arrival, as well as travel method, using Google Maps<br />

to estimate travel time and public transport options. Based on these<br />

criteria a list of registered commuters who match the user will be<br />

provided. Users must register and be logged in to be able to access<br />

contact details for their carpool matches to make arrangements.<br />

All new registrations on the site during <strong>July</strong> will go into a draw to win<br />

a $150 Prezzy card from Smart Travel.<br />

To register or for further information see www.smarttravel.org.nz.<br />

DISCONTINUANCE OF<br />

A STOCKWATER RACE–<br />

MALVERN SCHEME<br />

The <strong>Selwyn</strong> District Council,<br />

in accordance with the special<br />

consultative procedure<br />

as outlined in the Local<br />

Government Act 2002 advises<br />

their intention to discontinue the<br />

following stock water races:<br />

Malvern Scheme<br />

1. Closure of 1km through one<br />

property downstream of<br />

Kowai River Road<br />

2. Formalise closure 2.7km<br />

through one property Odgers<br />

Road<br />

3. Closure of 1.7km through<br />

Barrs Rd<br />

4. Closure of 0.5km through one<br />

property Wrights Road<br />

5. Closure of 1.5km through two<br />

properties Bluff Road<br />

these water races. Detailed<br />

A reader responds to the<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong>’ article on<br />

concern over wells drying<br />

up in West Melton<br />

Catherine Thornley<br />

– Sounds like a no-brainer,<br />

whether its climate change or<br />

irrigation, why is large scale<br />

dairying encouraged when there<br />

is obviously not enough water to<br />

go round.<br />

Enough water for human consumption<br />

is of more importance<br />

than irrigation.<br />

A reader responds to the<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong>’ article on a<br />

decision for an engineering<br />

workshop to be set up in<br />

a residential area on Two<br />

Chain Rd<br />

Philip Colegate – I would<br />

very much like to have my<br />

say about this business being<br />

granted consent to operate in a<br />

rural area.<br />

This is a subject that has been<br />

close to my heart and <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

<strong>Times</strong> has, in the past, published<br />

letters from me on the subject.<br />

We in rural Prebbleton suffered<br />

exactly the same issues<br />

with a contractor who bought a<br />

4ha lifestyle block to convert into<br />

a contractor’s yard. The contractor<br />

lives elsewhere.<br />

I fully sympathise with the<br />

residents in Two Chain Rd as it<br />

seems that the councils, and law<br />

CONTENTIOUS: Residents are concerned about a decision<br />

made by the district council to allow an engineering workshop<br />

to open in Two Chain Rd. PHOTO: GILBERT WEALLEANS<br />

of the land, allow businesses to<br />

do whatever they want, whereever<br />

they want and whenever<br />

they want with no protection of<br />

the rights of residents in areas<br />

zoned as residential or rural.<br />

I wish them luck with their<br />

appeal but from our experience<br />

they have a long and expensive<br />

battle ahead of them with the<br />

cards stacked against them.<br />

I have asked our local MPs<br />

for their opinion on the legislation<br />

and am awaiting a reply<br />

from Minister for the Environment<br />

Nick Smith on this subject<br />

and what Government policy is.<br />

It is unacceptable that residents’<br />

rights seem to be non-existent<br />

if district planning zoning<br />

is set aside without proper reason<br />

and wide consultation.<br />

It is an absolute disgrace.<br />

We said:<br />

Workshop upsets<br />

residents on Two Chain Rd<br />

You said:<br />

Janys Rebecca Harrison<br />

– When my family moved to<br />

a rural area in <strong>Selwyn</strong>, Canterbury<br />

we had a lovely view<br />

of the Southern Alps . . . until<br />

our neighbours built a huge<br />

glasshouse to grow tomatoes. It’s<br />

not noisy because they’re too far<br />

away to make any difference. But<br />

no more nice views now.<br />

Ryden Bain – Do you have<br />

animals on your lifestyle blocks?<br />

I don’t like the smell of your<br />

stock going through my washing.<br />

Let the man be and get on with<br />

your life. Go stop another quarry<br />

going in while your at it eh?<br />

Adam Vincent – Maximum<br />

average of 60dB (around the<br />

noise of a moderately loud restaurant)<br />

at 250m? Two staff on<br />

site max? Loss of a rural amenity<br />

when rural properties tend to<br />

have workshops for maintaining<br />

vehicles and plant? I feel like any<br />

appeal is going to struggle in<br />

court.<br />

Stephen Graham – What<br />

possibilities did the LIM report<br />

show before you bought your<br />

land?<br />

Corie Herd – Get over it.<br />

Lyle Robinson – Cut your<br />

ears off.<br />

Susanne H H Bush-King<br />

– That’s life, get over it.<br />

Bernadette Muinos – Stay<br />

off Wonthaggi. Same situation<br />

here!<br />

We said:<br />

A hospitality boom is<br />

fast tracking an area into a<br />

social hot-spot<br />

You said:<br />

Nic Davies – Great to see.<br />

We said:<br />

You don’t want to miss<br />

out on seeing Jimmy<br />

Barnes at the <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

Sounds concert next year<br />

You said:<br />

Tracey Moore – Sounds<br />

amazing.<br />

Jan Johnson – Read his<br />

book, what a great story and how<br />

he rose above the poverty of his<br />

early family life. We had no idea<br />

how hard it was for those arriving<br />

from Scotland and appalling<br />

way they were treated.<br />

‘the Best little<br />

PReschool in lincoln’<br />

Melodies Preschool is a small boutique<br />

preschool of only 30 children per day nestled<br />

in the heart of Lincoln township that provides<br />

high quality care and education for boys and<br />

girls aged 2-5 years.<br />

Our unique daily programme incorporates<br />

specialist music, dance, gym and art sessions<br />

using the Carl Orff approach and Gill<br />

Connell’s Moving Smart programme.<br />

The children enjoy discovering, creating<br />

and exploring our indoor environment which<br />

includes a spacious music room and art room.<br />

The natural outdoor environment is designed<br />

with your child’s creativity and physical<br />

hoW childRen<br />

leaRn and develoP<br />

90% of a child’s brain develops in the first<br />

5 years. Quality experiences and interactions<br />

help shape your child’s future during this time.<br />

Music develops a separate part of the brain that<br />

is linked to memory and awakens the senses,<br />

develops language and promotes confidence<br />

and creativity. Children learn through movement<br />

and real sensory experiences.<br />

High Quality Preschool Education is the<br />

smallest most important investment you could<br />

make to your child’s future.<br />

development in mind. Static equipment is<br />

limited so that children are able to create<br />

their own huts, games, obstacle courses and<br />

always be physically challenged. Every day<br />

the outdoor environment is different.<br />

Our low child to teacher ratio of 7 children<br />

to 1 teacher (Ministry Regulations are 10:1)<br />

provides a nurturing attentive atmosphere<br />

where children are engaged in meaningful<br />

play where there is always a teacher to care,<br />

support and extend on your child’s interest.<br />

It also allows teachers to provide amazing<br />

activities, lessons and interactions that would<br />

not otherwise happen in a higher child to<br />

teacher ratio environment.<br />

We also provide an exceptional<br />

Transition to School programme for 4<br />

– 5 years olds that is highly regarded<br />

by local New Entrant teachers and<br />

Principals.<br />

Children at Melodies become<br />

happy creative, confident, innovative<br />

learners. Here are some facts about<br />

how children develop.<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> may have made their<br />

worst start to a game all season<br />

and found themselves trailing<br />

“We were left scratching our<br />

heads a bit and looking at each<br />

other not really knowing what<br />

had happened,” said <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

coach Lee Padmore.<br />

Ede then came to the rescue,<br />

scoring two before half-time to<br />

even things at the break. He then<br />

completed his hat-trick early in<br />

the second half.<br />

Burwood evened the scores<br />

at three each before Kieran<br />

Pinkney gave <strong>Selwyn</strong> the winner<br />

with 10 minutes remaining.<br />

BRONSON MUNRO has<br />

returned to club rugby for<br />

Waihora following a 46-week<br />

suspension for racial abuse.<br />

Munro, 24, was suspended<br />

from all rugby matches including<br />

any on-field activities until<br />

May 31 this year, for racially<br />

abusing Southbridge player Peni<br />

Manumanuniliwa. He returned<br />

last month to make his first club<br />

rugby display in almost a year.<br />

Munro hasn’t had any problem<br />

breaking back into the Waihora<br />

division one side. He was a key<br />

player for the club before his ban<br />

and has represented the South<br />

Island Maori rugby team during<br />

three seasons.<br />

“He’s been on eggshells but he’s<br />

come back into the team quite<br />

well,” said Waihora coach Joff<br />

“We’ve put it behind us. His<br />

second game back was against<br />

Southbridge and there were no<br />

problems.”<br />

Munro was found guilty by a<br />

Canterbury Rugby judicial committee<br />

for acts or statements that<br />

are discriminatory by reason of<br />

religion, race, sex or national or<br />

ethnic origin.<br />

He was alleged to have called<br />

Manumanuniliwa a ‘black c***’.<br />

The abusive comment came<br />

during last year’s Canterbury<br />

combined country rugby final,<br />

after Manumanuniliwa was<br />

penalised for a high tackle.<br />

Munro is expected to feature<br />

in Waihora’s push to claim the<br />

ELLESMERE HAVE reclaimed<br />

the Southbridge Shield after<br />

defeating North Canterbury<br />

35-20 in Kaiapoi.<br />

North Canterbury made the<br />

brighter start and Ellesmere<br />

found themselves trailing<br />

6-17 with less than 10 minutes<br />

remaining in the first half.<br />

In what proved the most<br />

influential stage of the game,<br />

Ellesmere put the bit between<br />

their teeth and scored two late<br />

tries through Jale Masi and Tim<br />

Murgatroyd to take an <strong>18</strong>-17<br />

advantage at the break.<br />

“The boys were able to<br />

recognise what was happening<br />

and made a couple of changes<br />

which enabled us to turn things<br />

around,” said Ellesmere coach<br />

Alex Robertson.<br />

Ellesmere showed their<br />

dominance in the second 40 with<br />

both Keiran Meikle and Mark<br />

Maitland crossing the line, while<br />

North Canterbury were held try<br />

less.<br />

“Trust was the biggest thing<br />

that helped us win the game. The<br />

players trusted and kept faith in<br />

the systems they put in place,”<br />

said Robertson.<br />

The team celebrated the victory<br />

where their day had begun,<br />

returning to the Golden Mile<br />

Tavern in Templeton where they<br />

held a team breakfast before the<br />

trip.<br />

The Ellesmere players will now<br />

turn their attention to the club<br />

competition with one round<br />

remaining before the play-offs.<br />

The top four have already been<br />

decided but there is plenty to play<br />

for with home advantage in the<br />

play-offs on the line.<br />

Competition leader Waihora<br />

have a bye, which will give<br />

Southbridge the chance to secure<br />

the top qualifier spot if they can<br />

defeat fourth placed Prebbleton.<br />

Third placed Darfield will look<br />

to secure a home semi-final with<br />

a bonus point win when they<br />

Each week he<br />

introduces a new species found<br />

in his backyard at Lincoln. His<br />

column aims to raise public<br />

awareness of biodiversity, the<br />

variety of living things around us<br />

THE CELLAR slug<br />

(Limacus flavus) is a<br />

medium to large<br />

nocturnal air-breathing<br />

land slug.<br />

When fully extended it<br />

can span 75 to 115mm and<br />

is yellow-brown in body<br />

colour.<br />

It has blue-grey optical<br />

tentacles and a distinctive<br />

mottled appearance with<br />

fingerprint-like pattern on<br />

its mantle.<br />

The breathing hole is<br />

located below the mantle on<br />

the side of the slug and the<br />

mucus is yellow and very<br />

sticky.<br />

The species is native to<br />

southern and western Europe<br />

but has a wide<br />

distribution through<br />

North America, Pacific<br />

SLIPPERY:<br />

Slugs will<br />

emerge at<br />

matter. ​<br />

Slugs like to forage at night<br />

Islands, Australasia and<br />

Europe.<br />

They lay between 12 and<br />

32 eggs per clutch, totalling<br />

up to 140 eggs that are 6mm<br />

in diameter.<br />

Slugs seek dark, moist<br />

and safe refuge during the<br />

Countdown to supermarket appeal<br />

Countdown‘s<br />

upcoming appeal<br />

will help provide<br />

equipment for patients<br />

using Christchurch<br />

Hospital’s paediatric<br />

and neo-natal services.<br />

Sarla Donovan visited<br />

cancer sufferer, eightyear-old<br />

Jacob Matua,<br />

who benefits from the<br />

equipment<br />

JACOB MATUA has visited this<br />

place many times.<br />

He’s in the Children’s Haematology<br />

and Oncology Centre<br />

in the Riverside building at<br />

Christchurch Hospital, where’s<br />

he’s hooked up to an infusion<br />

pump dispensing the medicine<br />

he needs. It’ll be 10pm before<br />

this day’s treatment is over.<br />

After the eight-year-old started<br />

getting “headaches and tummy<br />

pain, neck pain, arm pain,” at the<br />

end of last year, a cancer diagnosis<br />

followed, along with nearly<br />

three months in hospital, getting<br />

treatment.<br />

Now he comes in for shorter<br />

stays – four days this time – and<br />

is crossing his fingers that he<br />

can return to his Clyde Rd home<br />

tomorrow.<br />

Jacob’s not well enough to<br />

attend his school, Burnside<br />

Primary, at the moment. He<br />

WHAT A SMILE: Eight-year-old Jacob Matua, with nurse Lucy Stephenson, is using equipment<br />

that was purchased with money from the Countdown Kids Hospital Appeal.<br />

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER<br />

couldn’t even eat his birthday<br />

chocolate cake in May: “Because<br />

sometimes I don’t eat,” he said.<br />

Charge nurse manager Chrissy<br />

Bond lightens the mood: “I wish<br />

I could say that!”<br />

The nurses play cards with<br />

him, including memory and<br />

skip bo. Lucy Stephenson, who<br />

is supervising today, says he’s<br />

quite the card shark. “I win every<br />

time,” Jacob says with a grin.<br />

His aunt Ula Faamoe sits with<br />

him, too, giving his mum – who<br />

has four other children including<br />

twin three-year-old’s – a break.<br />

She says he’s well at the moment:<br />

“The best I’ve seen him<br />

since starting the chemotherapy.<br />

He’s making great progress.”<br />

Beside his bed, a tall pump<br />

stand holds all kinds of medicines<br />

and beeping equipment.<br />

The $5000 stand is one of four<br />

in the centre, purchased with<br />

money from the Countdown<br />

Kids Hospital Appeal in 2013.<br />

Mrs Bond said it holds five to<br />

six pumps and keeps the medicines<br />

stable, as well as allowing<br />

nurses to easily read information<br />

on screens attached to the<br />

pumps. “DHBs find equipment<br />

like this hard to fund, because<br />

we can ‘make do’ with inferior<br />

(devices). It isn’t essential, but<br />

it just makes everybody’s life<br />

easier,” she said.<br />

Last year’s appeal raised<br />

$123,270 for Christchurch<br />

How to donate<br />

•To donate to the appeal,<br />

visit your local Countdown<br />

and donate at the checkout<br />

or purchase a Kids Hospital<br />

Appeal wristband or raffle<br />

ticket<br />

•Contributions can be made<br />

at Rolleston Countdown<br />

•The appeal has raised<br />

more than $10.4 million<br />

since it began in 2007<br />

•It fundraises for 11<br />

children’s hospitals around<br />

New Zealand, including<br />

Christchurch Hospital<br />

•It runs from August 7 until<br />

October 29<br />

Hospital’s paediatric wards and<br />

neo-natal unit.<br />

Countdown Kids Hospital Appeal<br />

chairwoman Ruth Krippner<br />

says most kiwi kids will visit<br />

hospital at some stage in their<br />

childhood. She said Countdown<br />

is proud to play a part in helping<br />

provide these hospitals with the<br />

equipment needed to treat illness<br />

and injury.<br />

“Whether it’s a one off visit<br />

for a minor injury or a lengthy<br />

stay for a serious illness, most<br />

New Zealand children will<br />

have a brush with a children’s<br />

hospital ward at some<br />

point​– just like this family,”<br />

Ms Krippner said.<br />

“Thanks to the generosity<br />

of our customers and the<br />

fundraising efforts of the<br />

Countdown teams, we’re able to<br />

help provide hospitals with the<br />

much needed-equipment to treat<br />

thousands of Kiwi kids. Last<br />

year, we raised ​more than $1.1<br />

million, and we’re hoping to do<br />

the same this year.”<br />

Meanwhile, Jacob is busy putting<br />

on his “best face” for the<br />

photographer.<br />

“Does a picture come out of<br />

that?” he asks.<br />

Double glazing insulates<br />

Having a warm dry home in winter is<br />

easier with double glazed windows and<br />

doors. These have two panes of glass that<br />

trap air in the middle. This makes it harder<br />

for cold air to penetrate through so a home<br />

stays warmer.<br />

Double glazing technology has<br />

progressed over time and today’s product<br />

is superior in design and function. This<br />

translates into more efficiently insulated<br />

homes, lower power usage, minimal if any<br />

condensation and less outside noise heard<br />

in the home.<br />

Ultimate Design and Renovation is<br />

locally owned and operated by Kelly<br />

and Mike Tyson who have considerable<br />

industry experience and are known for<br />

manufacturing high quality aluminium<br />

joinery for both new and older homes.<br />

The company specialises in replacing<br />

timber, steel or older aluminium windows<br />

and doors for a more modern looking<br />

home that is easier to heat and keep warm,<br />

while adding capital value.<br />

Their recently developed streamlined<br />

sliding doors are made from thicker metal<br />

than is available in competing products,<br />

making them stronger which enables<br />

Ultimate Design and Renovation to make<br />

much larger spanning doors, which allows<br />

more sunlight into the home.<br />

They also manufacture conservatories<br />

and windbreaks – affordable ways to<br />

expand a home with lovely sheltered warm<br />

spaces.<br />

With Ultimate Design and Renovation<br />

owning the extrusion, they can quickly<br />

turn an order around, delivering high<br />

quality aluminium joinery at a competitive<br />

price along with excellent service.<br />

Their highly skilled installers work to a<br />

customer’s timeline, respecting their home,<br />

working tidily and cleaning up afterwards<br />

so there is no glass or other objects left<br />

lying around.<br />

Until the end of <strong>July</strong>, Ultimate Design<br />

and Renovation and Mainland Glass have<br />

a limited number of half price double<br />

glazing packages available. You will want<br />

to be in quick to avoid missing out by<br />

entertaining dilemma<br />

Even in winter, it is nice to sit outside. As the weather warms up<br />

we spend more time outdoors, especially when socialising with<br />

friends and family.<br />

Planning a barbecue or alfresco event can be risky at any time<br />

of the year. With fine weather never a guarantee, it is good to have<br />

a covered area for entertaining. The children too will enjoy having<br />

somewhere outside to hang out when raining.<br />

This is easily sorted with a Bowranda patio roof.<br />

Produced by Unique Outdoors, the Bowranda’s highly specialised<br />

membrane protects against rain, hail and snow while filtering out 99<br />

percent of the sun’s harsh UV rays yet still letting light into your deck<br />

or courtyard, as well as the home. These areas are also cooler as solar<br />

radiant heat is filtered out.<br />

Further protection and shade can be added with roller blinds which<br />

offer the opportunity to keep out a northwest, southerly or easterly<br />

wind. These can be produced from sunscreen mesh fabric or PVC<br />

(clear or tinted).<br />

Bowranda is a permanent structure that effectively extends the living<br />

space of a home. Constructed from powder coated aluminium, with<br />

stainless steel fixings, it will not rust and is stable in windy conditions<br />

so ideal for the <strong>Selwyn</strong> district.<br />

The attractive Bowranda patio roof can be manufactured to specific<br />

dimensions to suit a particular space or budget while complementing<br />

and adding value to your most important asset.<br />

Unique Outdoors is a division of MCP New Zealand Limited.<br />

This business has a long connection with Canterbury having<br />

been established 57 years ago, with its head office still based in<br />

Christchurch.<br />

Bowranda Patio Roof<br />

The Bowranda can be installed as a roof only or the finishing touches added<br />

with Roller blinds in, sunscreen mesh fabric or clear or tinted PVC providing the<br />

protection that you require from sun, wind, rain and UV.<br />

The Bowranda patio roof is constructed of powder coated aluminium and<br />

stainless steel fixings to ensure it will withstand coastal conditions.<br />

Eliminates 99% of UV whilst maintaining ambient light.<br />

This is important as it provides protection from the sun without darkening the<br />

area, including the adjacent interior.<br />

The square profile of the roof line provides a pleasing aesthetic as it<br />

conforms to the lineal nature of residential architecture.<br />

Aiming for<br />

the best<br />

Customer service is something some<br />

businesses overlook leading to unfulfilled<br />

promises and disappointed customers who<br />

wait for a service or goods to arrive.<br />

Malcolm Ryder believes this occurs<br />

when companies look to increase profits<br />

by reducing distribution costs, making less<br />

deliveries to an area so customers must wait<br />

for urgently needed supplies.<br />

“I want to provide service the way it<br />

should be and once was,” advises Malcolm<br />

who owns and operates Kiwi Gas, a<br />

company that has been supplying LPG to<br />

Christchurch for over <strong>18</strong> years.<br />

When customers contact Kiwi Gas one<br />

of his team answers, not someone in a call<br />

centre who might be based off-shore.<br />

Kiwi Gas focuses on offering competitive<br />

if not cheaper prices and speedy delivery.<br />

“Our aim is to supply customers with gas<br />

within 24 hours, no matter where they’re<br />

based and we haven’t failed on that promise<br />

yet,” says Malcolm.<br />

This approach to business might explain<br />

why Kiwi Gas has become so popular with<br />

customers calling up for gas deliveries or<br />

popping into the company’s ‘drive-thru’<br />

at 37 Shands Road in Hornby, where you<br />

can get gas bottles of all sizes filled. A 9kg<br />

fill costs just $25.90 and they also sell a full<br />

range of refurbished gas bottles, gas parts<br />

and accessories.<br />

If wanting to hire gas heating for a<br />

function, Kiwi Gas can help with this<br />

too. They hire outdoor heaters to bars,<br />

restaurants and individuals from as little as<br />

$39 per heater, per night.<br />

Malcolm says Kiwi Gas is as ‘Kiwi As’. They<br />

have three aims: ‘fast as’, ‘easy as’ and ‘sweet<br />

as’, explaining their growing reputation for<br />

customer service, fast delivery times and<br />

looking after the community.<br />

“New customers often tell us, the reason<br />

they called was because they’d heard so<br />

many good things about us,” adds Malcolm.<br />

You will find Kiwi Gas at 37 Shands<br />

Road in Hornby. If wanting a delivery, call<br />

them on 0800 166 619, email: needgas@<br />

It’s all go at local nursery<br />

With the southern motorway extension<br />

well underway, businesses like Southern<br />

Woods Nursery which originally fronted<br />

onto Main South Road have had some<br />

major changes.<br />

Southern Woods is undergoing a<br />

complete makeover. Building work has<br />

started on their new garden centre and<br />

they have been replanting their arboretums<br />

and display gardens with all on target for<br />

their grand new garden centre opening in<br />

spring.<br />

Until then, Southern Woods can be<br />

found on their existing site via their new<br />

main entrance off Robinsons Road, just<br />

around the corner from Main South Road.<br />

With deciduous trees dormant in winter<br />

this is a good time to plant these. Southern<br />

Woods have a great selection of fruit and<br />

specimen trees that will complement<br />

established gardens or add height to newly<br />

landscaped areas. Their extensive selection<br />

of field grown trees are a great planting<br />

option this winter, see the range in-store or<br />

online.<br />

Your garden focus at this time of year may<br />

be cleaning up and Southern Woods have<br />

quality tools to help with the job, including<br />

Japanese made secateurs and pruning saws,<br />

and Italian loppers.<br />

Tidying the garden may also require<br />

supplies and Southern Woods have bags of<br />

potting mix, compost, stakes, tree webbing,<br />

ties, and fruit tree sprays along with liquid<br />

seaweed spray for applying early spring to<br />

Southern Woods (centre foreground) is getting a complete makeover.<br />

bolster plants (especially natives and citrus<br />

trees) against late frosts.<br />

If wanting colour in the garden in the<br />

colder months, drop by Southern Woods to<br />

check out their winter flowering plants and<br />

deciduous trees that exhibit vibrant bark<br />

colours. They also have a massive selection<br />

of hardy Canterbury grown natives, offer<br />

on-site consultations and gift vouchers.<br />

You will find Southern Woods at<br />

1002 Robinsons Road, on the corner<br />

of Main South Road. They are open<br />

Care of roses<br />

In the north, <strong>July</strong> is traditionally rose<br />

pruning time with many keen gardeners<br />

believing this task should completed by<br />

mid-August.<br />

Given the potential for late frosts in<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> it may be wiser to wait unless your<br />

roses are in a sheltered spot. Doing so<br />

will prevent early growth from being frost<br />

damaged, which can knock the plant back.<br />

After all, early pruning will not translate to<br />

early flowering.<br />

If determined to carry out the job sooner<br />

apply frost protection sprays otherwise<br />

prune just before the plant begins growing<br />

again.<br />

While roses happily grew wild without<br />

ever being pruned, they respond well<br />

to a good cut back and will flower more<br />

prolifically on new growth. Prune to shape<br />

rather than necessarily giving a really hard<br />

annual prune, keeping the centre of the<br />

bush fairly open so sun and air can move<br />

through it. You could simply cut back any<br />

winter damage.<br />

Older style, climbing and some weeping<br />

standard roses that traditionally bloom<br />

in spring should be left and cut back after<br />

flowering. To complement their wonderful<br />

display, pop in spring bulbs around their<br />

base; a job that needs to be done now.<br />

Throughout spring and summer, remove<br />

deadheads as each bloom dies off. When<br />

autumn descends leave these on the bush<br />

to help harden stems and prepare the bush<br />

for winter.<br />

You will need thick gloves to protect your<br />

hands and wrists along with clean, sharp,<br />

and well-oiled secateurs. It is a good idea<br />

to spray the secateurs with a little liquid<br />

copper or methylated spirits after pruning<br />

each bush. A small narrow bladed saw<br />

will also be handy for removing thicker<br />

branches.<br />

Pick a fine windless day (several days<br />

after rain) to avoid the spread of silver leaf<br />

disease which is more likely in the air when<br />

the weather is cool and damp.<br />

Make a clean diagonal cut about 5-6mm<br />

above the third to sixth bud, depending on<br />

how thick you want the plant. The lower<br />

part of the cut should be level with the bud<br />

itself. Slanting the cut allows water to drain<br />

off rather than settle and cause rot. Cut out<br />

any dead or diseased wood along with weak<br />

spindly branches so the plant is opened up<br />

to the sun and air.<br />

Shape climbing roses like a fan to fit a<br />

trellis, post or the size desired, removing<br />

any dead or spindly branches. Never cut<br />

these lower than a bush rose to avoid the<br />

plant reverting back to this type of rose.<br />

After pruning, spray cuts with liquid<br />

copper. This protects the wounds. Spray<br />

lime sulphur over the whole bush and<br />

around the soil at its base to eliminate<br />

fungal spores then dispose of debris taking<br />

care not to compost it.<br />

Finally, layer the ground at the base with<br />

organic mulch to help retain moisture over<br />

the drier months remembering to fertilise<br />

and water regularly.<br />

Charging for water –<br />

where does it end?<br />

Federated Farmers is worried talk of<br />

charging for commercial water use will take<br />

the country down an irreversible path of<br />

taxing ourselves unnecessarily, increasing<br />

prices and limiting economic growth.<br />

The Green Party’s plan to charge a 10 cent<br />

other commercial water uses, like farming,<br />

could end up costing New Zealanders<br />

billions, the organisation says.<br />

water bottled and sent offshore, with barely<br />

more than a couple of people employed<br />

locally to do it,” Federated Farmers water<br />

spokesperson Chris Allen says.<br />

“But, charging for every litre used does<br />

not make this problem go away. In fact, it is<br />

likely to put cost burdens on our people, our<br />

taxpayers and our communities which are<br />

simply unsustainable.”<br />

He says the main problem with this policy<br />

is, where does it end?<br />

“The Greens and Labour have both talked<br />

about charging for commercial water uses.<br />

But no one has calculated what effect this<br />

would have on the economy, or on ordinary<br />

Kiwis.<br />

“We’ve crunched some numbers based on<br />

water consent applications and:<br />

• About 60 per cent of water consumed<br />

in New Zealand is used for electricity<br />

generation. Adding just one cent a litre<br />

charge to the water used by the Manapouri<br />

power station alone would require passing on<br />

a cost of $160 billion dollars to New Zealand<br />

electricity users (that’s 65 per cent of the total<br />

value of our economy).<br />

• About nine per cent of consented water<br />

takes are for ‘industrial’ uses, which would<br />

add $24 billion in costs at one cent per litre<br />

of water used.<br />

• People connected to domestic drinking<br />

water supplies would pay an extra $<strong>18</strong> billion,<br />

including commercial users working with<br />

domestic water supplies.<br />

• The price of fruit and vegetables grown<br />

for the domestic market would increase,<br />

meaning that domestically grown produce<br />

would be unable to compete with imports.<br />

• The price of milk and meat would go<br />

up for domestic consumers and make our<br />

exports less competitive.<br />

“Basically if we go down this path, we will<br />

all pay more, for everything. It’s like a tax on<br />

living,” Mr Allen says.<br />

Gardening<br />

Flowers brighten the gloom of winter<br />

NOW IN the depth of winter, we<br />

are experiencing regular, heavy<br />

frosts. Soils are wet and cold,<br />

winds are chilly and we’ve even<br />

had snow.<br />

However, the gloom of winter<br />

is brightened by the appearance<br />

of blooming azaleas, camellias,<br />

early flowering rhododendrons<br />

and early flowering cherries. It’s<br />

an excellent time to plan your<br />

summer garden as spring is just<br />

around the corner.<br />

It’s harvest time for those winter<br />

maturing vegetables that were<br />

planted in late summer/autumn.<br />

Veges to harvest in <strong>July</strong> include<br />

artichoke (Jerusalem), broccoli,<br />

brussels sprouts, cabbages, cauliflowers,<br />

carrots, celery, leeks, lettuce,<br />

parsnips, silver beet, spinach<br />

and swedes.<br />

Continue to spread compost<br />

around maturing vegetables to help<br />

with excess water and improve the<br />

soil. Inspect your vegetable plants<br />

regularly for snails – they appear<br />

to become more cold-hardy every<br />

year.<br />

Where possible, prepare the<br />

soil for spring plantings, digging<br />

to a depth of 200mm and adding<br />

compost as you go. Ensure it is<br />

mixed in well.<br />

Winter flowering annuals<br />

should now be providing masses<br />

of colour in your gardens and<br />

containers. Remove dead flowers<br />

BRIGHT: Flowering rhododendrons should now be in full bloom.<br />

to encourage continuous blooming<br />

throughout winter. Flowering Plan your purchase carefully.<br />

trees in stock.<br />

winter annuals include; ageratum, Part of your fruit tree selection<br />

calendulas, cineraria, cornflower, should be to ensure you have a<br />

nemesia, pansies, poppies, primulas,<br />

snapdragon, stock and sweet You can easily do this by planting<br />

year-round supply of fresh fruit.<br />

pea. Top up existing plantings a few varieties that crop at different<br />

times of the year. In warmer<br />

with ‘potted colour’ annuals that<br />

have been grown to the flowering areas, a variety of citrus are now<br />

stage.<br />

ripening, including mandarins,<br />

Complete pruning of deciduous lemons, limes, grapefruit and<br />

fruit trees and spray with copper early oranges. Last plantings of<br />

oxychloride to prevent fungal strawberries should be completed<br />

diseases reappearing in spring. this month.<br />

Grapes and kiwifruit can also be Garden centres are bursting<br />

pruned. Garden centres and nurseries<br />

now have new season fruit ornamental trees and shrubs.<br />

with new stock of a wide range of<br />

<strong>July</strong><br />

HARVEST: It’s time to eat those<br />

winter vegetables.<br />

is a very safe month for planting.<br />

Ensure your planting sites are<br />

well prepared with the addition<br />

of compost and have adequate<br />

drainage. Pop in a planting tab<br />

when planting your trees/shrubs<br />

to give them the best start. Plan<br />

out what and where you will<br />

plant. Check the heights that<br />

plants will grow to avoid overcrowding<br />

in future years.<br />

<strong>July</strong> is probably the main<br />

month for pruning roses<br />

throughout the country as the<br />

plants are now dormant. Don’t be<br />

afraid to prune your roses quite<br />

hard as rose bushes are increasingly<br />

resilient. Spread fresh<br />

compost around the base of the<br />

bushes.<br />

One week after pruning, spray<br />

with lime sulphur or a copper<br />

compound such as copper<br />

oxychloride to ward off fungal<br />

diseases (do not mix these sprays<br />

together), then three or four days<br />

later, apply a horticultural spray<br />

to kill off any overwintering pests<br />

(again do not mix with copper).<br />

Garden hygiene is very important<br />

with roses so remove any<br />

dead leaves or diseased wood<br />

from the ground. Remove these<br />

from the property as they can<br />

harbour overwintering fungal<br />

diseases and re-infect your plants<br />

come spring.<br />

Don’t forget about your houseplants<br />

in winter. Try not to overwater<br />

them. Many only require<br />

water once a week or fortnight. A<br />

light misting of foliage with warm<br />

water stops leaves from drying in<br />

warm indoor conditions.<br />

State of the<br />

environment<br />

What are the environmental realities we<br />

need to face up to? Can we protect and<br />

conserve the environment while still<br />

remaining heavily dependent on pastoral<br />

production? Chief Science Advisor to<br />

the Prime Minister, Sir Peter Gluckman,<br />

will talk about the trade-offs we make<br />

and how we can manage them,when he<br />

gives this year’s Lincoln University State<br />

of the Nation’s Environment Address.<br />

Inadequate planning around farming<br />

intensification and invasive pests and<br />

disease incursions threaten the primary<br />

sector, as well as our treasured native<br />

species and natural ecosystems.<br />

Policy decisions need to be made and<br />

we have to decide, as a society, what<br />

is important to us in the future. Will<br />

new life science technologies provide<br />

a circuit breaker on the destruction of<br />

our environment, or will society remain<br />

highly precautionary.<br />

Several important policy-relevant papers<br />

and goal statements are emerging. They<br />

point to the need for strategic research<br />

and innovative thinking to address the<br />

issues we face now, and this will become<br />

even more critical in the future.<br />

Come along and hear a renowned<br />

scientist address the issues affecting New<br />

Zealand today, and in the future.<br />

Ensuring a safe work place<br />

LEArning firST aid is not only a<br />

part of ensuring a safe work place, but also<br />

an integral part of our engagement with<br />

the wider community. We all learn the<br />

necessary skills to ensure that in times of<br />

emergency we are able to assist our work<br />

colleagues, but are we able to take these<br />

skills home, into the community or on to<br />

the sports field?<br />

not all work places are the same and<br />

the injury risk for each place can be<br />

wide and variable. The office attended by<br />

administrators does not carry the same<br />

risk as those people working with heavy<br />

machinery, or perhaps at some distance<br />

from a regular ambulance service. it is<br />

therefore essential that you pick the right<br />

first aid course to suit all of your activities<br />

– both professional and social.<br />

Take, for example, an office worker who<br />

does not have a high risk work environment<br />

and whose concern might be to ensure<br />

that they can deal with minor cuts and<br />

superficial injuries, or the ability to perform<br />

effective CPr. These skills can be achieved<br />

on a course of eight hours duration and<br />

would generally fit into low to medium<br />

risk area. But take this same person on to<br />

a sports field either as a spectator or player<br />

when a higher level injury occurs. The<br />

eight hour course covering unit standards<br />

6402 and 6401 (or 26551 and 26552) does<br />

not cover head neck and spinal injuries,<br />

eye injuries, hypothermia and poisonings.<br />

The majority of injuries occur outside of<br />

the work place, in fact one in three injuries<br />

occurs in the home, making it the most<br />

common place for injuries to happen.<br />

new Zealand children are twice as likely<br />

to die through injury as children who live<br />

in Australia. They mostly die as a result<br />

of motor vehicles accidents or falls in the<br />

home. fatalities from leisure and sport are<br />

not far behind those in the workplace.<br />

The wider 12 hour course teaches the<br />

additional unit standard 6400 and provides<br />

a wide knowledge base for medium to high<br />

risk environments. This course covers<br />

many of the skills required to deal with<br />

the most common injuries, such as falls<br />

(which can result in head, neck and spinal<br />

injuries) and dealing with complex scenes<br />

such as motor vehicle accidents.<br />

if you are not sure on the course best<br />

suited to your needs, ask your accredited<br />

first aid training provider. They can explain<br />

the course content and give you options<br />

that will best suit your needs. Look beyond<br />

the workplace and consider your family<br />

and your location. Check that you have a<br />

good quality first aid kit that is up-to-date<br />

with replenished items, and that everyone<br />

knows where it is located.<br />

Community Centre programme. So as we<br />

settle into the winter months a great way<br />

to lift the winter spirits, is to enrol in a<br />

course of interest – maybe something that<br />

you have tried before and want to explore<br />

further or perhaps you would like to try<br />

something new.<br />

It has been proven that Lifelong Learning<br />

has many benefits with the obvious ones<br />

being the continuation of a learning<br />

journey, learning a new skill, increased<br />

confidence, meeting new people and much<br />

more. Our full range of classes can be<br />

viewed on our website www.risingholme.<br />

org.nz<br />

Is English your second Language? In<br />

term 3 we have ESOL classes including<br />

IELTS running at Risingholme Community<br />

Centre, Riccarton High School and Shirley<br />

Boys. Other Language classes include,<br />

German, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Arabic,<br />

NZ Sign and Te Reo. So if you would like to<br />

improve your English or learn a new<br />

language you can enrol via our website<br />

www.risingholme.org.nz or phone the<br />

Risingholme office 332 7359<br />

New and exciting at Risingholme<br />

Community Centre is Zentangle.<br />

What is this you might say - well if<br />

you can’t sit still enough for yoga, or<br />

your mind wanders in meditation,<br />

or you would like a creative aspect to<br />

your mindfulness, this may work for<br />

you. This method of drawing does not<br />

require any previous drawing ability,<br />

it can be a 15 minute practice you can<br />

build into your everyday, or you can<br />

explore some of the more creative ways<br />

you can then use this design practise<br />

to make your own cards, images, or<br />

decorate products. This class will teach<br />

you a variety of ‘tangles’ and get you started<br />

on your Zentangle path in a supportive and<br />

creative atmosphere, and you can build it<br />

at a pace that suits you, within your time<br />

constraints or desire as you move through<br />

the term.<br />

If you would like to know more about<br />

these classes or others on our website<br />

www.risingholme.org.nz please call the<br />

office 03 332 7359<br />

some of your fellow bidders are doing all<br />

in their power to psych you out and win<br />

the bidding.<br />

Securing a property isn’t just about<br />

having the most money. Sometimes the<br />

winning bidder is the one with the most<br />

confidence.<br />

They use psychology to convince<br />

opposing bidders to give up, hoping to<br />

make everyone else think they’ve got more<br />

to spend than anyone else in the room.<br />

Too often buyers have preconceived<br />

ideas about how the auction will unfold<br />

and have their confidence knocked when it<br />

doesn’t go their way.<br />

Two can play at that game. You just need<br />

to get your strategy right.<br />

Looking confident may be all you need<br />

to be the last bidder standing when the<br />

hammer goes down.<br />

To be that person you need to do some<br />

preparation. Make sure you go to a few<br />

auctions first to get used to them.<br />

Come bidding day, park yourself on<br />

the side at the front so that you can<br />

see everyone in the room and, more<br />

importantly, they can see you whether<br />

they’re at the back of the front.<br />

It gives you a vantage point and shows<br />

the opposition you are bidding confidently<br />

against them.<br />

You are hoping that the other buyers<br />

have a plan in place.<br />

Often that’s to start low. So if you come<br />

in with a relatively high first bid, you may<br />

rattle them.<br />

“The lower the open bid the more people<br />

can afford to bid. So you could knock out<br />

some of the opposition before they even<br />

place a bid if you choose the right opener.<br />

Don’t start at $500,000 for a house you<br />

know is going to go for at least $800,000.<br />

Put an opening bid of $785,000.<br />

Immediately your opposition is going to<br />

think it will go incredibly high and might<br />

be unnerved.<br />

Call each bid out confidently. “It shows<br />

you are comfortable and in control.<br />

The more confident you seem the more<br />

people will think you have done it before.<br />

It’s a really good idea to vary your<br />

bidding increments.. If it’s going up by<br />

$2000 bids and it’s below your limit don’t<br />

be afraid to put a $10,000 bid in..<br />

Your competition is always thinking<br />

about that next $2000 bid and if you<br />

change the rhythm from $2000 to $10,000<br />

you show you have the money and it<br />

changes where their next bid has to be.<br />

Instead of $4000 more it is $12,000 more.<br />

Finally, if you’re a couple, make sure<br />

you’ve discussed every aspect of the<br />

auction before you get there. As soon<br />

as you start looking at each other or<br />

conferring, the opposition will think<br />

you’re weak.<br />

Looking for a property – what really counts?<br />

You are in the market for a new<br />

property, scrolling the Internet,<br />

examining properties for sale and<br />

zeroing in on those with potential. They<br />

might be in locations that offer cheaper<br />

land, larger houses, or convenience to<br />

work or school.<br />

You may have visited show homes<br />

and open homes becoming confused,<br />

overwhelmed or swept away with<br />

emotional factors like having<br />

everything new, or extra features such<br />

as three car garaging.<br />

To be happy with your choice, list the<br />

features that you need, considering:<br />

• Family space – Is there room for<br />

the children to play indoors and for<br />

television and entertainment units?<br />

Should this be open plan or separated?<br />

• Kitchen – What needs to be in<br />

your kitchen? How serious are you<br />

about a butler’s pantry? Is it a whim<br />

or something that offers a practical<br />

solution to the way you use your<br />

kitchen?<br />

• Bedroom sizes – What are optimum<br />

sizes? Smaller bedrooms may translate<br />

to slightly lower building costs while<br />

extra space can be useful. When<br />

looking at existing homes, consider<br />

whether the size of each bedroom is<br />

sufficient.<br />

• Garaging – A standard double<br />

garage once two cars are parked there<br />

offers little space for the toys. What<br />

toys do you have and could they live<br />

with the lawnmower in a garden shed,<br />

a cheaper option to three car garaging?<br />

If the budget allows and a larger garage<br />

with workshop is important, make it a<br />

selection priority.<br />

• Size of land – Lifestyle properties<br />

offer space for children, pets, hobbies,<br />

an expansive garden and perhaps a<br />

home-run business but they require<br />

work so are not for everyone and a<br />

compact section might be more sensible<br />

if a tight budget or busy lifestyle.<br />

• Bathrooms – Second and third<br />

bathrooms are great in homes with<br />

teenagers and a wet shower room is<br />

ideal for young children. A bath might<br />

be fashionable though is often not used<br />

and its absence could mean a more<br />

spacious bathroom.<br />

• Laundry – Would a laundry in the<br />

garage do the job?<br />

• Storage – How much storage do<br />

you need? Weigh up what can truly be<br />

stored in the garage once vehicles are<br />

in, a preference in winter. Garages vary<br />

in size so check the size to ensure your<br />

vehicles will fit. Look also at where<br />

else the house offers storage capacity<br />

such as in hall cupboards, a large hot<br />

water cylinder cupboard, wardrobes<br />

(check their width and depth), walkin<br />

robe, attic storage trusses, as well as<br />

the potential for hooks and shelving<br />

in the garage for bikes, tools, garden<br />

equipment and even kayaks.<br />

• Off-street parking – How many<br />

vehicles can be parked on the driveway?<br />

Will this space be sufficient?<br />

• Garden - Is there sufficient space<br />

for your children to play or for<br />

entertaining?<br />

A checklist will allow you to determine<br />

what will suit your needs, the point of<br />

the exercise, saving you time looking at<br />

properties or potential house designs<br />

while assisting you to decide whether<br />

to buy a new or existing home with<br />

both options having advantages and<br />

disadvantages.<br />

for a new build<br />

Building a new home offers the opportunity to<br />

incorporate power saving initiatives.<br />

Windows should be plentiful on north,<br />

west and even east walls to capitalise on the<br />

sun’s free energy. The larger the window the<br />

more natural light is let in. If a hallway ends<br />

at an outside wall consider adding a window.<br />

These are also great beside or within entry<br />

doors.<br />

Thermally broken double glazing<br />

filled with low-emissivity argon gas is the<br />

next best thing in aluminium joinery offering<br />

superior insulating capabilities.<br />

Skylights in hallways and dark areas bring<br />

natural light into the house during the day.<br />

Solar power eliminates the worry over<br />

high power accounts. Most systems are set up<br />

so that any excess power generated, is sold to<br />

the grid via the electricity retailer who applies<br />

a connection fee and charges more for power<br />

drawn when there is no sun than for power<br />

bought back. Battery storage systems are now<br />

available yet still in their infancy.<br />

Solar water heating translates to long<br />

leisurely showers if water consumption is not<br />

a concern. It costs upwards of $5,000 and<br />

offers long-term savings on electricity.<br />

Insulation in the ceiling and walls is now<br />

compulsory for all new builds. An optional<br />

extra is to have foam insulated expanded<br />

polystyrene panels fitted under the concrete<br />

slab as a barrier against cold air coming up<br />

from under the house. Explore insulation<br />

options, choosing the type that will work<br />

best given your house design and cladding.<br />

Insulation also needs to be fitted tightly to be<br />

effective.<br />

An insulated garage door will make a<br />

difference as less cold air will penetrate the<br />

home and the garage will be a warmer place<br />

to work in.<br />

LED lighting offers brighter light and uses<br />

less electricity. The fittings and bulbs are more<br />

expensive though they have been getting<br />

cheaper.<br />

Sensors and timers control when lights<br />

are turned off and on. The sensors respond<br />

to movement in a room with lights timed to<br />

turn off after a certain period of time.<br />

Heating options should be linked to your<br />

family’s needs and lifestyle. Log and gas fires<br />

offer ambience though gas is generally more<br />

costly. Heat transfer systems allow warm<br />

air generated from a burner to be circulated<br />

throughout the house. Central heating and<br />

under floor heating are fabulous for ensuring<br />

a consistently warm home though can be<br />

costly to run. Rooms can also be too hot<br />

when the sun is shining wasting power if<br />

windows are opened to compensate. Heat<br />

pumps are great in larger rooms and hallways<br />

with dual cassette heat pumps offering the<br />

option to position units in different parts<br />

of the home for centralised heating. More<br />

conventional heating may assist in smaller<br />

rooms.<br />

Remote controlled systems allow<br />

lights and heating to be turned on from a cell<br />

phone ahead of arriving home.<br />

Solar power and water heating offers energy<br />

saving options.<br />

Ensure plenty of north and west facing windows.<br />

Ceiling and wall insulation is now<br />

compulsory for all new builds.<br />
