SELWYN SOUNDS organisers<br />

are guaranteeing changes to<br />

the bar set-up for 2019, to avoid<br />

similar problems to Saturday’s<br />

event.<br />

Just under 10,000 poured<br />

into the Lincoln Domain event<br />

to see a star studded day-long<br />

16 Page glossy lift out<br />

line-up headed by Jimmy<br />

Barnes.<br />

But long queues to buy<br />

alcoholic beverages and the fact<br />

it sold out early sent festival-goers<br />

to social media to complain.<br />

Promoter David Parlane<br />

said more bars or a bigger bar<br />

would be in place for next<br />

year’s event.<br />

“It’s our second year in, we’ve<br />

learnt and we’ll improve,” he<br />

said. Apart from the beverage<br />

issues, Mr Parlane said the concert<br />

was a “blast.”<br />

“It was a massive day, a massive<br />

crowd, we put on some<br />

fantastic acts. It was a concert<br />

with some really great international<br />

acts that entertained just<br />

Pages 16-17<br />

It was a ‘blast’ says promoter<br />

under 10,000, it was a bit of a<br />

blast.”<br />

“It was a great music concert.<br />

We are not a wine and beer<br />

festival, we’re a music concert,<br />

that’s what you come for and<br />

that’s what we run and we ran<br />

that extremely well,” he said.<br />

Planning was well under way<br />

for next year’s event, he said.<br />

Concern<br />

over<br />

quarry<br />

truck<br />

numbers<br />

• By Emily O’Connell<br />

ONE-HUNDRED-and-twenty-five<br />

truck movements every hour.<br />

That’s what Weedons and<br />

Templeton residents may face if the<br />

proposed quarry near their areas goes<br />

ahead.<br />

Fulton Hogan says the quarry,<br />

which will be on a 170ha section<br />

of land on Dawsons, Curraghs and<br />

Jones Rds, will be there for up to 40<br />

years.<br />

The company told Western News it<br />

is anticipating 1500 truck movements<br />

in or out of the site a day.<br />

Templeton Residents’ Association<br />

chairman Garry Kilday is concerned<br />

about the large number of trucks on<br />

roads which are already busy.<br />

“Fifteen hundred will go past a<br />

specific point everyday over a 12-<br />

hour period. Now that’s 125 truck<br />

movements per hour,” he said.<br />

Fulton Hogan said the time and<br />

days the quarry would be open<br />

was part of its resource consent<br />

application, which the company won’t<br />

divulge yet.<br />

from the editor’s desk<br />

ANOTHER SELWYN Sounds has come<br />

and gone, and with it has been the good,<br />

bad and possibly the ugly.<br />

Yes, the organisers will have to make<br />

some changes for 2019 if they want to keep<br />

getting those return festival-goers.<br />

The time it took to buy a beer, and the fact it ran out, was<br />

simply not good enough. The event is now bearing the brunt of<br />

those mistakes via bad publicity on Facebook and elsewhere.<br />

The time it took to get out of the venue has also been a talking<br />

point. But it wasn’t all doom and gloom. Far from it.<br />

There was plenty of water, soft drink and food stalls, and of<br />

course the music was great.<br />

But they must get it right for everyone next year.<br />

Delay for Leeston cycleway<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

RISING COSTS: The Leeston-Doyleston cycleway will be<br />

delayed because the project is over budget.<br />

THE LEESTON-Doyleston<br />

cycleway will be delayed because<br />

the project is over budget by<br />

more than half a million dollars.<br />

The cost of the project has<br />

risen from its original estimation<br />

of $204,000 to $895,000.<br />

As a result, the district council<br />

will postpone the project and<br />

re-introduce it in the draft <strong>2018</strong>-<br />

2028 Long Term Plan process.<br />

Consultation on the revised<br />

project and funding is expected<br />

to be re-opened for public consultation<br />

in April.<br />

It comes after the district<br />

council ran into a number of<br />

technical challenges during its<br />

design phase of the cycleway.<br />

The main issue was getting the<br />

correct slope for the cycleway so<br />

pedestrians and cyclists can use<br />

it comfortably.<br />

The district council has had<br />

problems with low-lying land<br />

along the road which is prone to<br />

flooding.<br />

It also needs to seek approvals<br />

to use private land alongside<br />

Leeston Rd.<br />

The idea for a cycleway along<br />

Leeston Rd was first put forward<br />

to the district council in 2014.<br />

The district council’s transportation<br />

asset manager Andrew<br />

Mazey said survey and design<br />

work has since been carried out.<br />

He said there was a requirement<br />

to make it as safe as possible<br />

by shifting it further away<br />

from the edge of the road and<br />

passing traffic.<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong> first reported<br />

in August, 2016, a link between<br />

Doyleston and Leeston was<br />

put into the annual budget for<br />

2016/2017.<br />

The district council’s transportation<br />

asset manager Andrew<br />

Mazey said survey and design<br />

work has since been carried out.<br />

There was a requirement to<br />

make it as safe as possible by<br />

shifting it further away from<br />

the edge of the road and passing<br />

traffic. Mr Mazey said it is<br />

planned to have available in the<br />

<strong>2018</strong>/19 programme.<br />

The district council has been<br />

in discussions with the New<br />

Zealand Transport Agency on<br />

having the project subsided as<br />

part of its <strong>2018</strong>-21 Land Transport<br />

Programme.<br />

If successful, funding needed<br />

to be provided by the district<br />

council will be reduced by 51 per<br />

cent.<br />

District councillor Pat McEvedy<br />

said he does not consider<br />

the project over budget - it has<br />

just got a more realistic budget<br />

now.<br />

“You don’t really know what<br />

the budget is going to be until<br />

you actually get the other details.<br />

“I know our community is<br />

looking forward to us having<br />

this so I am sure they want us to<br />

make sure we do a really good<br />

job of it ,” Mr McEvedy said.<br />

Community<br />

board told<br />

off for poor<br />

reporting<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

MALVERN Community Board<br />

members have been given a rap<br />

over the knuckles for not getting<br />

their monthly reports in.<br />

Board chairwoman Jenny<br />

Gallagher told members in her<br />

chair’s report she was again disappointed<br />

that not everyone had<br />

sent their reports.<br />

“How as a board are we expected<br />

to help our committees if we<br />

do not receive reports on issues<br />

that they have?” she said.<br />

The reports cover committee<br />

meetings board members have attended<br />

over the month and issues<br />

in need of addressing.<br />

The board held its monthly<br />

meeting last week. Each board<br />

member is expected to supply a<br />

report.<br />

Mrs Gallagher told <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

<strong>Times</strong> it makes it very difficult<br />

when community committees<br />

make requests through their<br />

board members.<br />

“The reason behind me wanting<br />

reports is so we can help our<br />

communities because that is what<br />

we are there for,” she said.<br />

Tai Tapu’s new principal<br />

‘finding the right balance’<br />

Tai Tapu<br />

School<br />

principal<br />

John Kane<br />

writes<br />

about his<br />

new role<br />

I WAS appointed to the<br />

position of principal at<br />

Tai Tapu School at the<br />

beginning of this year.<br />

Prior to this I was<br />

principal at Star of the Sea<br />

School in Sumner.<br />

My career in education<br />

began 22 years ago and<br />

I have taught in remote<br />

Aboriginal missions in<br />

the Australian outback,<br />

private preparatory schools<br />

in central London and for<br />

the last 10 years here in<br />

Christchurch.<br />

It has been wonderful<br />

teaching in different<br />

countries and at both<br />

ends of the educational<br />

spectrum.<br />

I reside in Sumner with<br />

my wife, Michelle and<br />

four-year-old daughter Isla.<br />

The one constant in<br />

education is change.<br />

It’s incredible to see how<br />

education has changed<br />

with modern technology<br />

and 21st-century teaching<br />

and learning practices.<br />

That being said a lot has<br />

remained the same and so<br />

it should.<br />

For me as a school<br />

principal it is about finding<br />

the right balance between<br />

modern teaching practices<br />

and fundamental teaching<br />

practices that have been<br />

around for decades.<br />

Schools should be a<br />

reflection of our changing<br />

society.<br />

We cannot expect to have<br />

a 1980s view of the world<br />

and then teach with that<br />

mindset.<br />

The world is changing<br />

by the minute and as<br />

educators we need to do<br />

our best to equip our<br />

children with the necessary<br />

skills, knowledge and<br />

values to enable them<br />

to make a worthwhile<br />

contribution to society in<br />

the future.<br />

More than anything<br />

else I want our kids to<br />

be thoughtful and kind<br />

citizens.<br />

I am very honoured to<br />

be the Tai Tapu School<br />

principal.<br />

The school has a<br />

wonderful reputation in<br />

educational circles and the<br />

school has been completely<br />

redesigned and built to<br />

accommodate 21st-century<br />

teaching and learning.<br />

In my humble opinion<br />

the learning environment<br />

has little impact on<br />

learning.<br />

It can certainly assist<br />

and facilitate things such<br />

as technology but it is the<br />

quality of the teachers in<br />

each learning environment<br />

which will have the greatest<br />

impact on learning.<br />

I’m very proud to be the<br />

leader of a wonderfully<br />

creative, innovative and<br />

experienced teaching team<br />

and this is backed by a<br />

very supportive parent<br />

community.<br />

Quarry truck<br />

numbers<br />

concern<br />

residents<br />

•From page 1<br />

Mr Kilday said the company<br />

had “completely thrown their<br />

neighbourhood and community<br />

into chaos.”<br />

A Fulton Hogan spokesman<br />

said if resource consent is<br />

granted for the quarry “it<br />

will not operate until new<br />

access roads have been built to<br />

accommodate the increase in<br />

truck movements.”<br />

He said the company was<br />

aware of the community’s<br />

concerns about more truck<br />

movements.<br />

“We intend to work<br />

collaboratively with the<br />

community and local authorities<br />

to position our quarry entrance<br />

so that the majority of truck<br />

movements will access and exit<br />

via State Highway 1, rather than<br />

using local roads,” he said.<br />

Templeton and Weedons<br />

residents have expressed their<br />

concerns about the potential<br />

health risks, water issues and<br />

devaluing of properties at public<br />

meetings in the past couple of<br />

months.<br />

‘Water and Light’, it’s all around us and nowhere<br />

more so than on the Banks Peninsula.<br />

As small outcrop of volcanic rock jutting out into<br />

the Southern Ocean we are surrounded on all<br />

sides, and nowhere<br />

is that interplay<br />

between water and<br />

light more evident.<br />

The Little River<br />

Gallery is proud to<br />

host Philip Beadle’s<br />

latest work, inspired<br />

by the landscapes<br />

of the Plains and<br />

Peninsula.<br />

Using a mixture of oil, watercolour, drypoint<br />

and monotype, Philip’s work is as varied as the<br />

landscapes he depicts.<br />

Christchurch based Philip Beadle, whether<br />

working with the human form or drawing<br />

inspiration from the low sun on water agitated<br />

by wind, uses the Canterbury environment to<br />

inform his work.<br />

Warm and inviting, cold and forgiving, water<br />

Our People<br />

SELWYN TIMES<br />

Dave Topp<br />

Long-serving committee man<br />

Tawera Memorial Hall<br />

Committee chairman<br />

Dave Topp, 73, has<br />

been serving on the<br />

committee for<br />

nearly 20 years. He<br />

spoke to Georgia<br />

O’Connor-Harding<br />

How long have you lived<br />

in Springfield for and what<br />

brought you out here?<br />

I have been here for more than<br />

20 years. What brought me here<br />

was I married my second wife.<br />

She was from Springfield.<br />

Has the township changed a<br />

lot?<br />

It has changed a lot. Probably<br />

more in the last few years. There<br />

have been quite a few things<br />

done around the place. We<br />

have got a very active township<br />

committee and they do a great<br />

job. There have been quite a few<br />

new houses in the last few years.<br />

After the railway moved out, the<br />

town was cut in half. It slowly<br />

built back up. There are new<br />

people who moved into the area.<br />

A cross-section of people – some<br />

old and some younger.<br />

How long have you been on<br />

the Tawera Memorial Hall<br />

Committee for and why have<br />

you stayed there?<br />

I have been on there for 19<br />

years this year. I think a lot<br />

has changed there in that time.<br />

Back in those days, it was pretty<br />

relaxed, we had meetings every<br />

month. Now there is a bit more<br />

to it. You do a bit more paper<br />

work. I have enjoyed it, this is<br />

my third term as chairman. It<br />

has been a learning curve for<br />

me. Most importantly, dealing<br />

with other people. I do a lot of<br />

dealings with the district council<br />

and the people I have dealt with<br />

from the council have been very<br />

good and very helpful. I’ve been<br />

lucky, they have always helped<br />

me in the things I needed to do<br />

right from the start. We had a<br />

lot of help and support from the<br />

TALENTED: Springfield resident Dave Topp holding the trophies he has won over the years.<br />

PHOTO: GILBERT WEALLEANS<br />

Malvern Community Board.<br />

Is there any reason why this<br />

hall is so special to you?<br />

It is a great hall. We have<br />

had a lot of comments over the<br />

years from people who come to<br />

Springfield. We have had people<br />

say it is probably one of the best<br />

halls in <strong>Selwyn</strong>.<br />

What was your biggest<br />

achievement on the hall<br />

committee?<br />

We have achieved quite a bit,<br />

especially in the last few years.<br />

We have upgraded the kitchen,<br />

we put up a new boundary fence,<br />

we have done quite a few things<br />

inside. Just recently, we did<br />

internal painting – we have still<br />

got some more to do but we are<br />

pretty good. I have got a great<br />

committee – all great people<br />

willing to help.<br />

Does the hall have any<br />

historical significance?<br />

When the hall was first built,<br />

the money was raised by the<br />

committee. That was a pretty big<br />

thing. It is over 60-years-old. It<br />

didn’t cost as much as it would<br />

cost today but it was a great<br />

achievement.<br />

Has anyone significant visited<br />

the hall?<br />

No, but years ago they used<br />

to have films once a week every<br />

Saturday night. They had dances<br />

on a regular basis. They used<br />

to have interesting people.<br />

They have got a local artist<br />

Mel Parsons, she has had two<br />

concerts here. We have got local<br />

groups here who do dancing<br />

several nights a week. Some of<br />

the locals have a ball once a year.<br />

You have supported the<br />

Malvern A & P Show for a long<br />

time and you do well in their<br />

veggie competition. Tell me<br />

about that?<br />

They have a great competition<br />

every year in the vegetable<br />

section of the Malvern show. I<br />

have been growing vegetables for<br />

about 50 years. I have actually<br />

won the trophy for the last nine<br />

years. Nineteen years I have<br />

been an exhibitor at the Malvern<br />

show.<br />

What has made you support<br />

the Malvern show for so long?<br />

It is a local show and I like<br />

to support the locals. It is wellorganised<br />

and a great family day<br />

out. Very seldom the weather<br />

packs a sad. Last year, it was a<br />

bit damp but it is a great country<br />

show. The next show is <strong>March</strong><br />

24.<br />

Are you passionate about<br />

gardening and vegetables?<br />

Yes I am.<br />

Do you have any top<br />

gardening tips?<br />

I think the most important<br />

thing is getting the ground<br />

preparation right. Get fertiliser<br />

and water and watch them grow.<br />

Get the weeds down.<br />

The trouble up here in<br />

Springfield is we are at a higher<br />

altitude so you have got to be<br />

a bit careful, especially in the<br />

spring because the frost gets<br />

the plants. You have got to be<br />

prepared to cover them.<br />

in changing Springfield<br />

This year has been pretty good<br />

but some years we get frost right<br />

up until December. Every year is<br />

a bit different.<br />

What is your favourite<br />

vegetable to grow?<br />

I like most things really.<br />

Carrots and parsnips. Parsnips<br />

can be tricky to grow. It was a<br />

wee bit trickier last year because<br />

it was a bit drier.<br />

In the last few years, I have<br />

been growing pumpkins. I think<br />

this year, I have got one quite<br />

big and they usually get up to<br />

50kg.<br />

You often give your vegetables<br />

away at the Malvern show?<br />

We have got a pretty big<br />

garden and I like to give stuff<br />

away at times. Sometimes you<br />

get too many cauliflowers and<br />

can’t eat them all at the same<br />

time. You can freeze some of that<br />

stuff of course.<br />

What else are you passionate<br />

about?<br />

I play indoor bowls at winter<br />

time. I have been playing bowls<br />

for more than 50 years. We have<br />

still got a club functioning –<br />

Springfield Indoor Bowls. We<br />

have been pretty good in the<br />

Malvern competitions.<br />

We have our ups and downs.<br />

The main thing is you enjoy<br />

yourself and that is what it is all<br />

about. You meet a lot of other<br />

people.<br />

We have got about 12 members<br />

I think, which is not too bad.<br />

We had less for a while. We were<br />

struggling. Some of the members<br />

travel from Darfield every week<br />

to play here.<br />

Have you had many<br />

successes?<br />

I’ve had quite a few wins. I<br />

won the men’s singles champions<br />

of champions competition<br />

in Malvern. I have won it<br />

twice. That was a pretty good<br />

achievement for me. There<br />

were five different clubs in the<br />

Malvern area. I was pretty<br />

wrapped with that. Probably<br />

don’t play as well now as I used<br />

to.<br />

I hear your wife Judith does a<br />

DIGGING IN: Dave Topp has won several awards for his vegetables at the Malvern show.<br />

lot of work for the community<br />

and has a gift for cooking?<br />

She is passionate about<br />

cooking. She takes suppers to<br />

the meetings, she has got a great<br />

passion for cooking. People<br />

comment on it. She does as much<br />

work at the hall as I do.<br />

Do you have a favourite dish<br />

she makes?<br />

I like them all really. She<br />

makes a really good egg and<br />

bacon pie. Her fruit cake is pretty<br />

good and also her chocolate cake<br />

– people rave over that.<br />

How long have you been<br />

married for?<br />

We are 21 years this year. We<br />

met years ago – 50 odd years<br />

ago. I worked in Springfield in<br />

those days. We met up then and<br />

went out for a while then we sort<br />

of drifted apart and went our<br />

separate ways. Then Judith lost<br />

her husband 22 years ago and we<br />

met up again.<br />

Where did you grow up?<br />

I was born in Rotherham,<br />

North Canterbury. Born at the<br />

local hospital there – there is<br />

no hospital any longer. That is<br />

where I was born and bred. I<br />

went to primary school there<br />

and secondary at Rangiora High<br />

School. I worked at Springfieldthat<br />

was my first job and then<br />

Ashburton. I mainly did farm<br />

work.<br />

Are there any projects you<br />

are excited about that are<br />

happening in Springfield?<br />

They are putting a walkway in<br />

between the Springfield Domain<br />

and the township. Just about<br />

completed actually. They have<br />

done a great job. People can walk<br />

from the camp or anywhere they<br />

want. They can walk on the side<br />

of the road – they have got their<br />

own separate walkway and that<br />

has been a great project.<br />

You are pretty busy, is<br />

there anything else you are<br />

passionate about that we<br />

missed?<br />

I am pretty passionate about<br />

vintage machinery. I have got<br />

my own vintage tractor. I am<br />

quite involved in that. I go<br />

to vintage meetings around<br />

Malvern. I have also been up to<br />

North Canterbury and Waipara.<br />

I am passionate about vintage<br />

machinery, it is a good hobby. I<br />

am in the process of restoring a<br />

tractor plough at the moment.<br />

Haven’t had time to finish it<br />

yet but I am working on it. My<br />

vintage tractor is a David Brown<br />

cropmaster, 1951. It does use a<br />

bit of fuel but I don’t use it that<br />

much. It is great to see people<br />

restoring and preserving vintage<br />

machinery because a lot of it has<br />

been lost over the years.<br />

We have got our big vintage<br />

event at Kirwee on the 23rd,<br />

24 th , 25 th of this month. It is the<br />

20 th anniversary of the New<br />

Zealand Vintage Machinery<br />

Club. That is a big weekend.<br />

It is the same weekend as the<br />

Malvern show. I will take my<br />

tractor there.

PUPILS GOT to spend a day<br />

West Melton School pupils<br />

spent the day with Constable<br />

how to operate their new kea<br />

crossing.<br />

The day started off with a<br />

The man, from Lincoln, was<br />

cut from the vehicle and was<br />

taken to Christchurch Hospital<br />

by the Westpac Rescue Helicopter.<br />

Yesterday, he was in a stable<br />

condition in the intensive care<br />

unit.<br />

It comes just weeks after two<br />

school’s fields where each year<br />

level ran a lap before biking to<br />

Westview Cres and around the<br />

school’s field.<br />

For year 4 pupils, it was their<br />

first chance to compete in the<br />

duathlon while year 5-8 competitors<br />

can now compete in the<br />

Explore the heritage<br />

of Hororata and Beyond<br />

The Hororata Community Trust’s project, ‘Heritage of<br />

Hororata and Beyond’ allows people to discover the<br />

area’s diverse and rich pioneering history. Heritage<br />

properties in the area include Gunyah Country Estate,<br />

Terrace Station, Homebush Stables, Cotons’ Cottage<br />

and Hororata Museum, Washpen Falls, Glentunnel<br />

Museum, Steventon Homestead, Rockwood Station, The<br />

Point Station, St John’s Church and Coleridge Power<br />

Station. Many of the properties have public open days<br />

throughout the year or are open by appointment; details<br />

can be found at www.hororata.org.nz.<br />

This year the project is focussing on the Heritage<br />

of Water, learning how private and county schemes<br />

developed from the late 19th century. A bus tour is<br />

planned to follow the journey of water from the high<br />

country to the plains. This will take place on Sunday 11<br />

<strong>March</strong> and has proved to be so popular it has sold out.<br />

For those who have<br />

missed out on the<br />

bus tour there is<br />

still the opportunity<br />

to explore the<br />

district’s heritage by<br />

visiting five heritage<br />

properties and<br />

museums, making this<br />

a great day to get out<br />

and discover what the<br />

district has to offer.<br />

Terrace Station was the home of Sir John Hall and<br />

is still lived in by his descendants. Sir John was the<br />

parliamentary advocate for the Women’s Suffrage<br />

movement and we are now celebrating the 125th<br />

anniversary of this event. There will be a display and<br />

information about the Women’s Suffrage movement and<br />

other displays.<br />

Gunyah Estate, built in<br />

1912 by a son of Sir John<br />

Hall, offers guided tours of<br />

the homestead. At Guynah<br />

you can stroll through the<br />

gardens and discover the<br />

original farm building.<br />

Cotons’ Cottage and<br />

Hororata Museum contain a wide range of artefacts,<br />

archives and photographs relating to the history of our<br />

district, including an automotive and musical displays.<br />

Glentunnel Museum hosts an extensive collection of<br />

items relating to the history of the area which has seen<br />

much rural industrialism, particularly the pottery and<br />

brickworks.<br />

Rockwood Station has a historical homestead set within<br />

a beautiful woodland garden which includes English trees<br />

and rhododendrons, bordered by 100 acres of native<br />

bush. Enjoy a picnic in the garden and a stroll on the<br />

bushwalk.<br />

11 <strong>March</strong> are:<br />

• Terrace Station<br />

• Gunyah Estate<br />

• Cotons’ Cottage and<br />

Hororata Museum<br />

• Glentunnel Museum<br />

• Rockwood Station<br />

Properties will charge an entry<br />

fee at their gate. Each property<br />

offers something different and<br />

a visit to them will provide a<br />

varied and interesting glimpse<br />

into our pioneering past.<br />

From 10am – 2pm at the Hororata<br />

Domain there will be a display<br />

on the heritage of the rural<br />

water scheme, information on<br />

properties in the area and details<br />

A reader responds to the<br />

article about <strong>Selwyn</strong> MP<br />

Amy Adams’ concerns<br />

over the impact the<br />

Christchurch Southern<br />

Motorway Stage 2 will<br />

have on West Melton<br />

roads<br />

Julie Sims – The New<br />

Zealand Transport Agency<br />

is firing back to Amy Adams<br />

purely because they do not<br />

want to lose face.<br />

We have lived in West<br />

Melton for 11 years and that<br />

particular corner at the BP<br />

is very dangerous. I have<br />

seen potential accident after<br />

potential accident and it’s<br />

only a matter of time before<br />

somebody is killed. How do<br />

we safely get our kids from<br />

the Wilfield Residential<br />

Sub-division to West Melton<br />

School safely.<br />

NZTA’s answer to that was<br />

a piddly barrier just past the<br />

intersection and right before<br />

the 100km zone. My kids have<br />

almost been collected at this<br />

piddly crossing as cars go way<br />

too fast down here and kids<br />

don’t have the mental capacity<br />

at primary school to judge<br />

how fast a car is going.<br />

We have been told that<br />

NZTA will not put lights up at<br />

the intersection of Weedons<br />

Ross Rd and State Highway 73<br />

as it’s too costly.<br />

Bullocks to them as it has<br />

become a very dangerous<br />

intersection.<br />

We said:<br />

Strong gusts of wind<br />

caused a campervan<br />

to roll on Christchurch<br />

Akaroa Rd last week<br />

You said:<br />

Louise Rawlings – They<br />

shouldn’t have been on the<br />

road in the winds on that<br />

day.<br />

Andrea Heffernan<br />

– That road is dicey at the<br />

best of times with a car. I am<br />

surprised the New Zealand<br />

Transport Agency hasn’t<br />

put restrictions on large<br />

campervans.<br />

Holly Traxler-Puddle – I<br />

hope the people are safe but<br />

I am sure the van insurance<br />

does not cover a one-car<br />

accident.<br />

ManaMichelle Hardy<br />

– We travelled that road<br />

on Sunday and it was quite<br />

calm on the Akaroa side but<br />

once over the hill onto the<br />

Christchurch side it was awful,<br />

and we were in a four-wheel<br />

drive.<br />

We said:<br />

Maddie Collins has<br />

returned to her West<br />

Melton home after<br />

undergoing a potentially<br />

Broadfield School gets ready<br />

One of <strong>Selwyn</strong>’s oldest primary schools, Broadfield, is about to celebrate<br />

150 years. Georgia O’Connor-Harding reports<br />

A LARGE celebration<br />

stretching over three days<br />

will begin on Friday to mark<br />

Broadfield School’s 150th jubilee<br />

celebrations.<br />

They include a tour including a<br />

tour of the Broadfield Gardens, a<br />

formal jubilee dinner and fete.<br />

The start of the jubilee will be<br />

marked by the school’s oldest<br />

living past pupil Ted Smith, 97<br />

and a current pupil, his great,<br />

great nephew Hayden Lineham,<br />

7, planting a scarlet oak tree.<br />

The last tree was planted 25<br />

years ago when the school celebrated<br />

its 125th jubilee.<br />

The planting will be followed<br />

by the cutting of a cake by the<br />

school’s youngest pupil Matilda<br />

Hansen, 5, and a past pupil<br />

CELEBRATION: Broadfield<br />

School’s oldest living pupil<br />

Ted Smith will plant a scarlet<br />

oak tree to mark the opening<br />

the 150th jubilee.<br />

Margaret Morrish – who was<br />

awarded a Queen’s Service Medal<br />

for services to heritage preservation.<br />

Hayden is a fifth generation<br />

family member to attend the<br />

school.<br />

His great, great great grandad<br />

George first started at Broadfield<br />

in 1889.<br />

Hayden’s mother Rachel Smith<br />

also attended the school and now<br />

teaches part time.<br />

She said the school is basically<br />

the same as it was years ago and<br />

it is lucky to still be open.<br />

“The community is still really<br />

involved with the school. It is a<br />

real family atmosphere. All the<br />

teachers know all the children’s<br />

name,” Miss Smith said.<br />

One of her favourite memories<br />

was riding her pony to school -<br />

which pupils can still do today if<br />

they wish.<br />

Her other two children will be<br />

starting later this year.<br />

Leading up to the event, the<br />

school has put itself on the map<br />

by running a fundraiser which<br />

has led to the display of 20 scarecrows<br />

in its Shands Rd paddock.<br />

The scarecrow project was also<br />

a way of promoting the school’s<br />

fete on Sunday - which will feature<br />

80 stalls, live entertainment<br />

and entertainment for children<br />

including a bouncy castle.<br />

Businesses have got on board<br />

with the project, either sponsoring<br />

a scarecrow at $1000 or<br />

delivering their own scarecrow to<br />

get behind the event.<br />

Flick the Fireman, Lieutenant<br />

Dan, Pine Pete, Harvey Tech and<br />

Adam Currie were some of the<br />

scarecrows sponsored by businesses.<br />

The funds raised will go<br />

towards a towards a jubilee<br />

pavilion structure to be installed<br />

over the school’s netball court<br />

area.<br />

The project is estimated to cost<br />

more than $100,000.<br />

Jubilee committee member<br />

Belinda McMillan, who came up<br />

with the scarecrow initiative, said<br />

the scarecrows are a fairly large<br />

talking point in <strong>Selwyn</strong>.<br />

She said the project has<br />

been massive and everyone<br />

now knows where Broadfield<br />

School is.<br />

Fun and exercise<br />

all year round<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

to celebrate 150-year jubilee<br />

“Before then you would tell<br />

lots of people and they would say<br />

“where is Broadfield School?”<br />

Now you say it is where the<br />

scarecrows are and they go “oh I<br />

know”,” Miss McMillan said.<br />

Broadfield was opened in 1868<br />

and originally operated in the<br />

Broadfield Methodist Church<br />

before its first buildings were<br />

built in 1870.<br />

While the earliest roll of pupils<br />

ranged from 50-60, the attendance<br />

was a lot less and the ages<br />

ranged from 4 to 18-years-old.<br />

At this time schooling was not<br />

free so a charge of £1 per annum<br />

was made.<br />

It was reported school was not<br />

compulsory and not all children<br />

attended due to difficulties in<br />

paying.<br />

The grounds of the original<br />

school comprising of three acres<br />

was purchased by the late Samuel<br />

Early for £30.<br />

The official opening for the<br />

new school building was on<br />

Wednesday, July 6, 1870.<br />

The first teacher at the school<br />

was 19-year-old George Cotton,<br />

who served until 1872.<br />

It was reported Mr Cotton<br />

died about 1874 and about 250<br />

adults and 50 children attended<br />

his funeral.<br />

The longest serving teacher at<br />

the school is Linda Trolove, who<br />

taught at the school from 1987,<br />

until her retirement at the end of<br />

2017.<br />

While it now has a solid roll of<br />

140 pupils, it has had a history of<br />

fluctuating numbers.<br />

In 1973 the roll dropped to<br />

seven and there was talk of closing<br />

the school but the moving<br />

in of a family with two children<br />

saved the school and it began to<br />

increase.<br />

Over the years the school has<br />

had several extensions with the<br />

most recent upgrade in 2016.<br />

BIG PLANS: An artist impression of jubilee pavilion structure to<br />

be installed over the school’s netball court area.<br />

experiences, which made me realise this was<br />

something I could do. I dived in, accepted the<br />

Debate on importance of soil<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Lincoln Envirotown trustee<br />

Sue Jarvis writes about an<br />

upcoming debate hosted<br />

by radio personality Kim<br />

Hill on the importance of<br />

soil at Lincoln University<br />

SOME SCIENTISTS state that<br />

Britain may have as few as 60<br />

harvests worth of usable soil left.<br />

How many harvests do we<br />

have left?<br />

What does our soil need to<br />

allow us to continue to grow<br />

food?<br />

Some countries have lost their<br />

usable soil completely through<br />

desertification.<br />

Each year in June a planning<br />

committee co-ordinated by the<br />

Lincoln Envirotown Trust and<br />

chaired by Dr Sue Jarvis starts<br />

planning for the next hot topic<br />

chaired by radio personality Kim<br />

Hill.<br />

The <strong>2018</strong> hot topic will be the<br />

eighth, and as usual on a subject<br />

of national and global environmental<br />

significance – ‘Soil – are<br />

we treating it like dirt?’<br />

The planning starts with<br />

choosing the topic.<br />

This time it was quite easy<br />

as last year’s topic was ‘Water<br />

Andy MacFarlane Ants Roberts Mike Hedley Trish Fraser<br />

Lincoln Envirotown.<br />

The events are always well<br />

attended, with last year’s event<br />

packed out with a number of<br />

people listening to the discussion<br />

from the foyer.<br />

The choice of panellists is<br />

always hard and takes quite a bit<br />

of discussion to find four panellists<br />

to cover all the aspects of<br />

the topic.<br />

This year’s panellists are Trish<br />

Fraser, a local who works at<br />

the Lincoln Plant and Food<br />

Reserach; Ants Roberts, who<br />

works for Ravensdown; Mike<br />

Hedley from Massey University;<br />

and Andy MacFarlane, farmer/<br />

company director.<br />

These panellists, who are<br />

experts in their field, will discuss<br />

a broad range of relevant issues:<br />

Are we degrading our soil<br />

cover? Is this most precious of<br />

resources in any danger? How<br />

important is the ecosystem of<br />

the soil, how do we ensure the<br />

production of safe, healthy food<br />

and what may go wrong in terms<br />

of such things as pollution and<br />

erosion?<br />

The audience can join in the<br />

– a global issue affecting New<br />

Zealand’ and as one of the panellists<br />

said: “It is hard to separate<br />

the role of water from the role of<br />

soil – we should be talking about<br />

soil too.”<br />

Then we need to invite some<br />

people to the planning committee<br />

who are experts about the<br />

topic.<br />

For the <strong>2018</strong> event we have<br />

members from AgResearch,<br />

Plant and Food Research,<br />

Canterbury University as well<br />

as, of course Lincoln University,<br />

who is hosting the event, and<br />

Non-stop to the city!<br />

Have you tried the 85 bus service from Rolleston to the city yet? If<br />

you’ve been thinking about trying a new way to commute, this is a<br />

great option.<br />

The service, currently running on a trial basis, is designed to get<br />

residents from Rolleston to the city as quickly as possible in the<br />

mornings, and back home again in the afternoons.<br />

There are three services to the city at the start of the day, and three<br />

services home at the end of the day. As the route is designed to get<br />

residents to and from the city as fast as possible, the driver can take<br />

the quickest available route on the day.<br />

Look out for this sign located at the bus stops in Rolleston where<br />

the 85 picks up from.<br />

Timetables are available at metroinfo.co.nz. We look forward to<br />

seeing you on board soon!<br />

Busy year ahead for<br />

Youth Council<br />

The <strong>Selwyn</strong> Youth Council has three fresh faces in <strong>2018</strong> with Chloe Duff, Ethan Richards-White<br />

and Taylin Smith joining the group.<br />

Chloe and Ethan both attend Rolleston College, where representation on the Youth Council was<br />

particularly sought. Taylin Smith from Dunsandel attends Lincoln High School.<br />

Paige Sullivan, Chair of the Youth Council, says all three new members are great role models.<br />

“We’re excited for the new and existing members of the Youth Council to continue contributing to<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong>’s vibrant community.”<br />

“Projects on the radar include the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Link bus service, What do YOUth think? consultations,<br />

and the very first <strong>Selwyn</strong> Youth Survey. We’re excited to brainstorm other ideas at our orientation<br />

weekend in Living Springs this month,” she says.<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> Youth Council have held their first meeting of the year in February with meet-and-greets<br />

and planning for the coming year. A team-building trip was held which involved games, a lunch<br />

and ten-pin bowling.<br />

The Youth Council are very proud to be able to continue to give back to the community through<br />

their discretionary fund. The <strong>Selwyn</strong> Youth Project Fund is available to people or organisations<br />

who would like to see youth thrive in <strong>Selwyn</strong> through events or activities which contribute to youth<br />

wellbeing. Applications are assessed at the Youth Council’s monthly meetings. See the Council<br />

website for more details and the application form.<br />

Stepping Up – CV Preparation<br />

Need help preparing a CV or cover letter? Come along to a CV<br />

preparation session, held at <strong>Selwyn</strong> District Libraries. During these<br />

sessions you will learn how to use digital tools to help you prepare<br />

for employment, including creating a CV and cover letter and more.<br />

All you need to do is book into a session, and bring information<br />

about your employment skills, work and voluntary experiences (with<br />

dates) to include in your CV. Sessions will be held at:<br />

· Leeston Library, Monday 12 <strong>March</strong><br />

· Lincoln Library, Monday 19 <strong>March</strong><br />

· Rolleston Library, Monday 26 <strong>March</strong><br />

· Darfield Library, Monday 9 April<br />

Sessions run from 9–11am.<br />

Anyone aged 16 and over can attend, but bookings are essential –<br />

see our website for details: www.selwynlibraries.co.nz.<br />

It is recommended all attendees have an understanding of basic<br />

English and basic computers knowledge.<br />

Request a new bin<br />

We often get enquiries through different channels from residents wanting<br />

new bins.<br />

If you would like to request a bin or a bin change you can go to our website www.selwyn.govt.<br />

nz/request-bin-changes<br />

Council offers three separate collection services: Recycling, rubbish and organics.<br />

Recycling is collected fortnightly in 240 litre yellow lid wheelie bins or, if you are not on the<br />

collection route but would like to participate in the recycling collection, you can order crates (or<br />

wheelie bins) and transport them to a collection point. The kerbside collection covers over 90%<br />

of the district’s households. Participation in the recycling collection service is compulsory for<br />

households on the collection route, and is charged on an annual basis through the rates bill.<br />

Organics such as garden and food waste is collected in 240 litre lime green lid wheelie bins on<br />

a weekly cycle. This service is only available in the larger townships at present and is gradually<br />

being extended to smaller townships as demand dictates. Currently the organics service is<br />

available in Darfield, Kirwee, West Melton, Rolleston, Prebbleton, Springston, Lincoln, Leeston,<br />

and Southbridge. This collection is an optional service for properties on the collection route<br />

and is funded on a user-pays basis. Those who wish to use the service pay an annual charge<br />

for their wheelie bin.<br />

The rubbish collection takes general household rubbish on a weekly cycle. Households have<br />

three choices for rubbish, namely 60 litre official Council rubbish bags, 80 litre and 240 litre<br />

dark green or red lid wheelie bins. The Council has set waste collection fees and charges to<br />

encourage waste minimisation and provide a financial incentive to households that reduce<br />

their rubbish. Many households select the 240 litre organics bin and an 80 litre rubbish bin as a<br />

lower cost alternative to one large 240 litre rubbish bin.<br />

New RSA Service for <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

With the support from Council, the RSA are happy to be able<br />

to provide a new welfare service in <strong>Selwyn</strong> starting on<br />

Wednesday 7 <strong>March</strong>.<br />

The hope is that this service will provide more convenient access for<br />

past and present servicemen and women and their families to get<br />

help for any welfare related matter.<br />

The clinic will provide a range of services including a link to<br />

Veterans Affairs, completion of application forms and co-ordination<br />

of financial needs. This service offered is not just for RSA members,<br />

any serviceman or woman may visit.<br />

The clinic, located at Council’s Rolleston Community House at<br />

95 Rolleston Drive, will be open on Wednesdays 4–7pm.<br />

To contact the clinic outside of hours please phone Josien at the<br />

Templeton RSA Tuesday, Thursday or Friday between 9.15am–1.30pm<br />

on 349 4701 or for urgent contact David Sands on 027 201 7747.<br />

Waikirikiri gains affiliation<br />

with Canterbury Hockey<br />

WAIKIRIKIRI HAS been<br />

affiliated to Canterbury Hockey<br />

after a unanimous vote on<br />

Wednesday night.<br />

The club was formed in 2017.<br />

Before then, players had to travel<br />

to the city to join a club.<br />

In its first year, the club attracted<br />

120 junior hockey players<br />

in 13 teams, of which 70 per<br />

cent were new to the game.<br />

Waikirikiri club president<br />

Lyndal Marshall says it is an<br />

exciting development which will<br />

allow them to bring new players<br />

SPORTS<br />

into the game and give them a<br />

stage on which to represent their<br />

local club.<br />

The move means the year 7/8<br />

Kwik Sticks 11-aside boys and<br />

girls, senior division three (year<br />

9 up to under-18) boys and girls,<br />

and the mid-week open men’s<br />

and women’s teams will be able<br />

to be entered this year.<br />

A Canterbury hockey<br />

spokesperson said having a<br />

brand new club is exciting and<br />

reflects the huge opportunity<br />

from the new communities<br />

developing in areas like<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong>.<br />

“Waikirikiri entered teams<br />

in our junior competitions<br />

in 2017 and will now be able<br />

to enter teams in our senior<br />

competitions in a staged<br />

manner as required by our club<br />

affiliation policy.”<br />

off Southbrook in<br />

tight one-day match<br />

LINCOLN SNATCHED victory<br />

against Southbrook with just<br />

three balls to spare in the country<br />

premier one-day competition.<br />

At Southbrook Park, the hosts<br />

set Lincoln a target of 170 after<br />

fringe Canterbury player Jack<br />

Boyle and ‘Brook mainstay Matt<br />

Brine put on a classy 105-run<br />

partnership before a Southbrook<br />

shuffle saw the home side lose<br />

nine wickets for 65.<br />

Country opener Joel Harden<br />

got the run chase off to a solid<br />

start before Canterbury Kings<br />

T20 star Jeremy Benton smashed<br />

54 to help his team home in a<br />

with three balls to spare.<br />

116 at Cheviot Domain.<br />

Devon Nightingale and Lochie<br />

James Richards and Brad<br />

Oxford-Rangiora ensured their<br />

place in country cricket’s top<br />

flight competition next season after<br />

a dominant win over Darfield-<br />

South Malvern on Saturday.<br />

The combined side’s eightwicket<br />

win makes it five wins out<br />

of eight for the year after a tough<br />

start to the competition.<br />

On a damp wicket at Oxford’s<br />

No 2 ground, the home side won<br />

the toss and elected to bowl first.<br />

Darfield-South Malvern got<br />

off to a flying start with Nick<br />

Jenkins and Chris Warner taking<br />

the team through to 57/0 after 12<br />

overs.<br />

Oxford-Rangiora clawed their<br />

way back into the match with<br />

off-spinner Mark Murphy picking<br />

up 3/16 off his nine overs and<br />

Nathan Cook 3/27 off eight overs<br />

as Darfield-South Malvern crumbled<br />

to be all out for 110.<br />

The pressure was on Oxford-<br />

Rangiora to chase down the runs<br />

and keep them in the premier<br />

grade next season.<br />

They were soon reduced to<br />

30/2, but Calvin Scott, battling<br />

on with his nose still broken<br />

from two weeks earlier, made<br />

a gritty 30 not out while David<br />

Fulton found his form later in<br />

the innings and finished with an<br />

unbeaten 48.<br />

Kim’s<br />

Fashion Quarterly<br />

from Kim Taylor —Viva La Moda<br />

Autumn is here<br />

Autumn is upon us and the stores are bursting with<br />

new exciting fashion for the season.<br />

Navy is still huge as is pink in various hues, florals,<br />

textures, chunky knits and ponchos. Red is<br />

making a comeback which will please many.<br />

Black, white and grey are also prevalent as<br />

we follow Europe’s big return to these staple<br />

colours.<br />

The fashionistas amongst us know that<br />

shopping early in the season is a must for<br />

coats, jackets and knits. This is when there is<br />

greatest choice in styles and sizes. As few<br />

fashion suppliers carry extra stock any longer,<br />

it’s often not possible to order in any more<br />

once the stock in store has gone.<br />

We have pictured a stunning navy coat with<br />

fur collar which is from Joe Brown of London<br />

$365. This is beautifully styled and the design<br />

shows incredible attention to detail.<br />

Vassalli is a fab NZ label and<br />

they have really stepped it up<br />

a notch this season with some<br />

gorgeous fashion forward<br />

pieces. We have pictured<br />

the pretty Vassalli bomber<br />

with rose gold zips. A<br />

lovely jacket that could<br />

be dressed up or down, for $175.<br />

We have also showcased the beautiful butter soft seduce<br />

genuine leather jackets in Navy wash $429. Genuine leather<br />

is so much warmer and of course will last for years<br />

without missing a beat.<br />

The Libertine reversible dress has just arrived. This is a<br />

winning style for Libertine which they repeat every<br />

season but change it up with their prints and<br />

colours. This season it is navy, teal and silver and<br />

is a gorgeous flattering style, which can be worn<br />

as a V neck or turned around to be round neck.<br />

Clever!<br />

The final style we have shown is the Zafina phase<br />

shirt available in pink or navy $149. This stunning<br />

shirt is a repeat winning style from Zafina as the<br />

longer chiffon back appeals to most. it looks<br />

great teamed up with slim leg pants<br />

for work or play.<br />

All of these styles are available<br />

now at Viva La moda. see you<br />

Colour day: A great success<br />

ABOUT 850 people were covered<br />

in brightly coloured cornflour as<br />

part of a Colour Fun Day.<br />

The Rolleston and Districts<br />

Lions Club ran its first Rolleston<br />

Colour Fun Day recently to raise<br />

funds for its organisation.<br />

Organiser and the Lion’s club<br />

secretary Heather Kissell said the<br />

day had perfect weather for the<br />

event.<br />

She said participants arrived<br />

early to create group art work<br />

and bought paint to throw on<br />

each other.<br />

After a zumba warm-up by<br />

Kim Churton of Body Rhythm<br />

Fitness, participants set off passing<br />

through five colour stations<br />

and three obstacles.<br />

Participants made their way at<br />

their own pace through a 2.5km<br />

track at Helpet Park.<br />

At the end of the course was<br />

dISCOVER<br />

New West Melton Community Centre<br />

A new community centre is taking shape<br />

in West Melton, and when completed<br />

later this year will provide a wide range of<br />

facilities for residents of the fast-growing<br />

West Melton area and the surrounding<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> District.<br />

As chairman of the West Melton<br />

Community and Recreation Centre<br />

Working Group Bruce Russell explains,<br />

the new building will replace the old<br />

community hall, which has been servicing<br />

the community since the early 1900s,<br />

but would require significant and costly<br />

earthquake strengthening in a few years’<br />

time.<br />

“The hall and the structures that had<br />

been added on to it over the years were<br />

damaged in the earthquake. Some money<br />

was spent bringing it up to the required 37<br />

per cent strength, but it would have needed<br />

to be brought up to 100 per cent in 2025,<br />

and that would have cost a significant<br />

amount of money,” Bruce says.<br />

He says the West Melton Hall has been<br />

one of the most-used community centres<br />

in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> District, and with the everincreasing<br />

population in West Melton and<br />

further afield, he could see that the time<br />

was right for a new centre to be built.<br />

“I talked to the community about it, and<br />

they were in favour of the idea, and the<br />

Artist Impression<br />

council was also supportive. A committee<br />

of 32 was formed and we spent the next<br />

six to eight months canvassing the local<br />

people about what they would like to have<br />

included in their new community centre.”<br />

The contract to build was awarded to<br />

Armitage & Williams, with the <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

District Council agreeing to contribute<br />

10 per cent of the cost. However, as Bruce<br />

pointed out to the council, residents from<br />

surrounding areas would also be using<br />

the new facilities, so funding should come<br />

from the district-wide rates. Council<br />

agreed and increased their contribution<br />

to 36 per cent, which Bruce was thrilled<br />

about.<br />

“The council are right in behind us.”<br />

The total cost of the project, including<br />

landscaping, is $8.3 million.<br />

Hamish Wheelans of Gillman Wheelans<br />

says the facility was needed to cater for<br />

will cater to growing population<br />

growth in the developing subdivisions.<br />

“It’s pleasing to see facilities keeping up<br />

with the growth in West Melton – and<br />

catering for future growth.”<br />

Hamish has been a long-time supporter<br />

of the community, including fundraising<br />

for the primary school’s facilities and<br />

other recreational amenities, and he<br />

is also a supporter of the West Melton<br />

Rugby Club.<br />

The new West Melton Community<br />

Centre will include a playcentre, a Scouts’<br />

den, and meeting places for the Residents’<br />

Association and other groups, while the<br />

outdoor areas will incorporate sports<br />

fields and proposed new tennis courts.<br />

“We also purchased some extra land,<br />

allowing us to potentially install a<br />

children’s playground and skate park,”<br />

Bruce says. “This is an active community,<br />

so having facilities like these is very<br />

important.”<br />

The West Melton Primary School,<br />

located across the other side of SH73<br />

from the community centre, has limited<br />

playground area and is also keen to make<br />

use of the new centre, Bruce says.<br />

“The school roll now stands at 450 and<br />

will likely reach 500 by the end of the year.”<br />

The issue of getting the children safely<br />

across the busy road is being addressed<br />

to some extent with a speed reduction<br />

outside the school, but Bruce says they are<br />

hoping traffic lights will be installed at the<br />

major intersection.<br />

“We are having discussions with Transit<br />

NZ about this.”<br />

Until the new centre is completed, the<br />

old hall will remain in use, with people<br />

using it every day and most nights of the<br />

week, Bruce says.<br />

Contaminated soil on the site, which<br />

was a leftover from the 1920s-1940s when<br />

there was a communal sheep dip there,<br />

has been safely buried under Environment<br />

Canterbury supervision.<br />

The new West Melton Community<br />

Centre will open towards the end of <strong>2018</strong>,<br />

providing a valuable facility for today’s<br />

residents and generations to come.<br />

Construction of the<br />

new community<br />

centre began at<br />

the end of 2017<br />

with completion<br />

expected towards<br />

the end of this year.<br />

The West Melton Hall has been a well-used<br />

community facility for more than a century.<br />

SELWYN RURAL LIFE<br />

SELWYN TIMES<br />

Survey shows rural and urban<br />

sectors share common concerns<br />

A survey on New Zealanders’ views on<br />

the primary sector shows the rural-urban<br />

disconnect may not be as marked as some<br />

commentators believe.<br />

The broad survey, which was conducted<br />

for the Ministry for Primary Industries<br />

(MPI) last October, in the heat of election<br />

campaigning and with ‘farmer bashing’<br />

high on some politicians’ and lobby groups’<br />

agendas, found a drop in positivity about<br />

pastoral farming among both urban and<br />

rural respondents.<br />

“It’s hardly surprising given the political<br />

climate at the time,” Federated Farmers<br />

national president Katie Milne said.<br />

“It appears we’re united in our<br />

determination to do even more to continue<br />

to strive for improvements in water<br />

quality. Double the number of both city<br />

and country folk see water quality as our<br />

most significant issue when compared to a<br />

similar survey done in 2008 – after all we<br />

are all in this together.”<br />

The primary sector, otherwise, was<br />

still viewed as a significant contributor<br />

to the wider economy with two thirds of<br />

respondents believing the country is better<br />

off when farmers are going well.<br />

The report also notes that positive views<br />

towards the dairy sector are still twice as<br />

high as negative ones.<br />

Federated Farmers, meanwhile, is<br />

impressed that urban dwellers share<br />

farmers’ concerns about such issues as<br />

biosecurity incursions and the need for<br />

more education and awareness around<br />

prevention.<br />

Farmers would also take heart in the<br />

report’s findings towards their activities<br />

and licence to operate.<br />

“The report considers that the primary<br />

sector currently earns its ‘social licence<br />

to operate’ by providing employment<br />

opportunities, economic stability and food<br />

for New Zealanders,” Ms Milne said.<br />

Positive views towards<br />

dairy sector are twice<br />

as high as negative<br />

views, survey shows.<br />

Help needed to stop the<br />

spread of aggressive plant<br />

Environment Canterbury is calling for<br />

landowners to stop the spread of yellow<br />

bristle grass, an aggressive annual seeding<br />

plant which spreads rapidly through<br />

pasture, reducing pasture quality.<br />

Principal resource management advisor<br />

biosecurity Laurence Smith said they<br />

needed landowners to help stop the spread<br />

in Canterbury.<br />

“To stop yellow bristle grass becoming<br />

a major pest in Canterbury, we are asking<br />

landowners to please be vigilant and report<br />

any suspected sightings to Environment<br />

Canterbury as soon as possible.<br />

“There are currently two known<br />

infestations of yellow bristle grass in<br />

Canterbury – one in Sefton and the<br />

other in Scargill, both bordering railway<br />

crossings. It is likely that seeds may have<br />

been spread by contaminated machinery<br />

working on the crossings,” Mr Smith said.<br />

Yellow bristle grass is already widespread<br />

throughout the North Island, where it<br />

affects mainly dairy farmers by reducing<br />

pasture quality and utilisation in late<br />

summer and autumn. Cows don’t willingly<br />

eat it, and grazing avoidance leads to<br />

seeding and rapid spread and opening for<br />

other weeds.<br />

The fast spread of yellow bristle grass<br />

across the North Island is largely due to<br />

contaminated vehicles and machinery,<br />

water, soil movements, and as contaminants<br />

of hay and maize. Yellow bristle grass seeds<br />

can pass through the rumen and be spread<br />

in dung.<br />

How to identify yellow bristle<br />

grass<br />

Yellow bristle grass is currently seeding<br />

and therefore easier to identify. The seed<br />

head is a cylindrical spike, between 2.5-<br />

10cm long, and becomes a golden brown<br />

colour once mature.<br />

Leaves are yellow-green in colour and<br />

usually red or purple at the base.<br />

If you suspect you<br />

have found yellow<br />

bristle grass, please<br />

contact Environment<br />

Canterbury<br />

immediately on<br />

0800 324 636.<br />

Sighted yellow bristle grass?<br />

If you suspect you have found yellow<br />

bristle grass, please contact Environment<br />

Canterbury immediately on 0800 324 636.<br />

You can prevent the spread of pests<br />

like yellow bristle grass by having a farm<br />

biosecurity plan in place on your property.<br />

Yellow bristle grass is included in<br />

Canterbury’s proposed Regional Pest<br />

Management Plan as an ‘eradication’<br />

pest, with the objective of eradicating all<br />

infestations from the region over the life of<br />

the plan.<br />

daffodils, tulips and freesias. A beautiful burst<br />

of Spring colour after the long days of winter<br />

is welcomed in any garden, and definitely<br />

brightens everyone’s spirits a little. The end<br />

of daylight saving is a great time to plant<br />

your bulbs because the ground temperature<br />

is generally cooler, which is the ideal<br />

environment for bulbs. The key to success<br />

is ensuring you have prepared the soil, or<br />

have chosen a top quality potting mix like our<br />

Patio Plus if you are planting in pots. Bulbs<br />

also like blood and bone if they need a nutrient<br />

boost. This can be added to the soil. Need more<br />

help with how to plant bulbs? We have a guide on<br />

our website or ask our team for advice.<br />

Your pre-planting checklist involves making sure you choose bulbs<br />

that are suitable for our climate, and then making sure you plant<br />

them in the right place in your garden. Some bulbs like the shade,<br />

some like the sun. If you are unsure, ask at your local garden centre.<br />

Organic Compost<br />

Intelligro’s Organic Compost is made on our site, blended from<br />

sustainable and natural products, with no green waste or soil added.<br />

We carefully monitor our process to create this product and take pride<br />

in the end result. It is also one of our most popular products!<br />

Our Organic Compost is designed to improve the overall quality<br />

of your soil. It does this in a number of ways:<br />

Improves moisture retention, reducing water loss especially during<br />

the warmer weather<br />

Adds vital nutrients to the soil<br />

Improves and stabilizes pH<br />

Improves drainage and reduces erosion<br />

Conditions the soil to create a healthier growing environment<br />

Helps to create a more even soil temperature<br />

All of these things help to create the best growing environment for<br />

your plants. The great thing about compost is it will also work to<br />

remove any pollutants that are already in your garden – pretty clever<br />

really! Also, due to its organic properties, you can feel safe knowing<br />

that there is nothing harmful in this product.<br />

Artisan Homes<br />

Our work is delivered in three equal parts - Long-term<br />

experience, skilled expertise, and old fashioned hard work.<br />

566 East Maddisons Road is the latest addition to<br />

the line-up of stunning homes in the catalogue of<br />

Artisan Homes. The three bedroom, 227m2 home<br />

forms part of Faringdon’s show home village, the<br />

South Island’s biggest, with still more homes to open.<br />

It features two spacious living areas, open plan<br />

kitchen and dining, walk-in pantry, and ensuite<br />

and bathroom, each fully tiled and with 10mm<br />

Frameless Glass showers. New Zealand designed<br />

and manufactured VCBC vanities feature in both<br />

bathrooms, as does the VCBC Form Clearstone<br />

Freestanding Bath in the family bathroom. There is<br />

a reading/sitting area, lit by two skylights, that opens<br />

onto the large deck.<br />

Stylishly<br />

finished with<br />

Methven tapware<br />

Haro Quality<br />

Plank 1 Strip<br />

timber flooring<br />

and Cavalier<br />

Bremworth<br />

Habitat Collection<br />

carpet, in this<br />

beautiful family<br />

home no detail is<br />

overlooked.<br />

Such is the<br />

hallmark of the<br />

artisans that make<br />

up the team at<br />

Artisan Homes. Rob Jones is the owner. He’s been in<br />

the building industry since he was sixteen, whether<br />

building, project management, or both.<br />

“Our work is delivered in three equal parts,” Rob<br />

says. “Long-term experience, skilled expertise,<br />

and old fashioned hard work.” Backed by a ten<br />

year Standard Masterbuild Guarantee, all these are<br />

wonderfully exhibited in Artisan’s newest show home.<br />

“The build result, as with all our show homes, has<br />

ended up as a collaboration of ideas from across our<br />

team of designers, suppliers, and contractors, many<br />

of whom had a part in the process with ideas and<br />

contributions.” This is perhaps most keenly observed<br />

in the unique landscaping with its functional and<br />

aesthetic use of railway sleepers throughout<br />

the property.<br />

“There wasn’t a design or plan for it,”<br />

Rob says. “Graham, our landscape<br />

contractor creates his work by what<br />

I call ‘free flowing’ his ideas as he<br />

works on site, almost by feel, and<br />

he changes or introduces new<br />

elements as he goes. He told me<br />

early on he was working a bench<br />

seat into his scheme. I trust him one<br />

hundred percent, so I just agreed.”<br />

The result is quite beautiful, and needs<br />

to be seen – and sat on – to be truly appreciated. Sit<br />

on it and listen to the water feature bubbling away<br />

in the quiet, relaxing outdoor space. It’s at 566 East<br />

Maddisons Road. Show home hours are weekends 12<br />

til 4, and most weekday afternoons.<br />

Checklist for selling your home<br />

MAKE SMALL FIXES<br />

Inspect your home with a buyer’s<br />

eyes, and correct the flaws that are<br />

most egregious (if affordable) or<br />

can be relatively easily fixed—from<br />

repairing cracks in the walkways<br />

to repainting dingy walls or oiling<br />

creaky hinges.<br />

SET A PRICE<br />

A real estate agent will give you a<br />

market analysis free of charge or<br />

commitment. Ask a few to get a<br />

broader picture of the market, then<br />

ask to see listings for properties<br />

similar to yours that have sold<br />

in the past six months. Check<br />

out comparable listings yourself<br />

in the real estate section of your<br />

newspaper or on websites. Then<br />

decide whether you want a quick,<br />

easy sale or the highest possible<br />

price.<br />

CLEAN & DECLUTTER<br />

Weed out excess furniture,<br />

knicknacks, and “stuff ”—toss it,<br />

donate it, give it away, sell it at a<br />

yard sale, or put it into storage—so<br />

the house seems more spacious and<br />

buyers can imagine themselves in it.<br />

STAY VIGILIANT ABOUT<br />

MAINTENANCE<br />

From the moment you start<br />

showing your house, keep the lawn<br />

mowed, shrubs trimmed, gardens<br />

weeded, rooms spotless and<br />

clutter-free.<br />

READY YOUR HOME FOR<br />

OPEN DAYS<br />

Hide pocketable valuables,<br />

display fresh flowers or bowls<br />

of fruit, bake a batch of cookies<br />

for the homey smell, open the<br />

drapes, keep pets out of sight.<br />

DECIDE WHETHER TO DO<br />

YOUR OWN BUILDING<br />

INSPECTION<br />

It may save you time, especially<br />

with older homes, to identify—<br />

and potentially solve—problems<br />

your buyer’s inspection will<br />

discover later.<br />
