To keep a kunekune pig could cost $1000
• By Georgia O’Connor-
Harding
“CRAZY COUNCIL rules.”
That’s the verdict from
a Kirwee resident who has
discovered she needs to pay
$1000 to the district council
for a resource consent to have a
kunekune pig on her property.
Melissa Evans has been left
questioning why the cost to have
a pig on her 3000 sq m property
is so high.
She said while she can understand
how it could be an issue
if she was considering buying a
noisy animal such as a rooster or
looking at breeding, but she was
purely buying her a pig as a pet.
“If you have a strict rule in
your guidelines about what you
are not allowed to have, then
how come if I pay $1000 you
are suddenly allowed to have it.
It just seems a bit unfair,” Miss
Evans said.
She said she has found the rules
a “little frustrating” as she will be
unable to afford to the pig.
On top of forking out $1000,
she has to gain written permission
from her direct neighbours.
The rules are a result of the
council’s District Plan, which
excludes donkeys, pigs, roosters
or peacocks as a domestic
animal.
This is due to their potential
to generate adverse effects on
nearby property owners or in an
urban setting, a district council
spokesman said.

Joint
review to
address
speed
limits
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
A REVIEW of Selwyn’s speed
limit bylaw and speed limits
outside schools will be combined
to prevent confusing the public.
Concerns have been raised the
district council looks as though it
is over consulting on speed limitrelated
issues.
A report seeking approval to
review to the draft Speed Limits
Bylaw 2018 was presented at the
district council’s public meeting
on Wednesday.
It comes as the district council
is planning to review all schools
in the first half of this year – with
it expected to be completed by the
end of June.
The district council had to
partially re-open its speed limit
review to look at school roads, after
submissions were lost last year
when the council’s email system
failed.
It is also consulting on speed
limits as its District Plan gets
under way and as part of the Long
Term Plan 2018-2028.
At the meeting, district councillor
Craig Watson said while he
had no concerns over the draft
speed bylaw he raised concerns
over the timing of the reviews.

Combining two different speed bylaws to prevent confusing the
public does seem logical (see page 1).
This is what the district council has decided to do after
receiving a report seeking approval to review to the draft Speed
Limits Bylaw 2018 at its meeting on Wednesday.
As you’ll read on page 3, the district council is putting the
Draft Gambling Venue Policy out for public consultation this
month.
District councillor Craig Watson was concerned the proposed
gaming machine cap of 120 was arbitrary.
However, he agrees with the 74 per cent of people surveyed
who thought the cap shouldn’t be based off population growth.
It will be interesting to see the results of public consultation.

Gaming machine increase likely
• By Emily O’Connell
A PROPOSED draft policy
could see an increase in gaming
machines across the district.
At its meeting last week, the
district council received the
Draft Gambling Venue Policy
and decided to put it out for
public consultation later in the
month.
The draft
policy included
an increase
in the current
machine cap
of 107 to 120.
“The existing
policy
Craig Watson
with a cap of
107 machines
was put in
place when the population of
the district was approximately
49,500 in March 2015,” it read.
However, the report said the
cap has been breached with the
approved number of machines
currently sitting at 114.
A survey of residents, undertaken
in November, indicated 58
per cent of the 236 people surveyed
say that gambling harms
the community or is a serious
problem.
In 2014, it was 41 per cent.
The survey also showed 74 per
cent of respondents disagreed
or strongly disagreed that the
number of gambling machines
in the district should increase
proportionally with population
growth.
District councillor Craig
Watson thought the cap of 120
poker machines was “arbitrary”
but agreed basing the cap off
population growth made it “too
high.”
He’s urging residents to make
submissions so the district
council can understand what the
community think is the “right
balance” between potential
harm and good.
“I think it’ll be an interesting
one, and I hope there will be
lots of submissions because it’s
a really important piece of our
social framework, how we deal
with pokies,” Cr Watson said.
The proposed draft policy
includes a limit of five machines
for new venues and a maximum
of five machines for venues
which are operating less than
five machines.
The report says information
from Department of Internal
Affairs and the Problem
Gambling Foundation
shows that in general Selwyn
communities lose about $3.5
million each year on poker
machine gambling.
Written submissions on the
draft policy can be made from
May 28 to June 29.
A hearing panel, consisting
of district councillors Bob
Mugford and Debra Hasson and
Deputy Mayor Malcolm Lyall,
will review the submissions and
make a recommendation to the
district council.

REVIEW:
The Selwyn
District
Council
wants public
feedback on
its proposal
to increase
the district’s
gaming
machine cap
from 107 to
120.
In Brief
TWO PEOPLE FOUND
A hunter in his 40s was found
on Saturday afternoon after
rolling his ankle and activating
a personal locator beacon. The
man, who was overdue from
a morning hunting trip near
Benmore Hut, was picked up by
the Westpac Rescue Helicopter.
A woman, 40, was also found
after setting off for a training run
from Porters Pass. The woman’s
husband informed police on
Saturday evening that she hadn’t
returned. Oxford Land Search
and Rescue volunteers were put
into the area and were able to
find a light source. The woman
was picked up by the Westpac
Rescue Helicopter at 1.30am on
Sunday as volunteers could not
reach her.
FARM BUILDING FIRE
Firefighters were called to
contain a fire in Motukarara
at 5.30pm on Wednesday.
Lincoln chief fire officer
Jeremy Greenwood said it’s
still unknown how an old farm
building caught fire but it’s “not
deemed to be suspicous.” He said
units from Lincoln, Rolleston
and Governors Bay attended
the “well involved fire.” It took
firefighters two and a half hours
to contain the blaze. No-one was
injured.

Joint review
to address
speed limits
•From page 1
At the meeting, district councillor
Craig Watson said while he
had no concerns over the draft
speed bylaw he raised concerns
over the timing of the reviews.
“We have just come off a speed
review which didn’t go awesome
. . . I just think this is confusing
for the public,” he said.
His views were supported by
district councillors Nicole Reid
and Murray Lemon who said
it was at “risk of muddying the
waters.”
As a result it was decided both
reviews would go out to public
consultation together in August.
But confusion broke out around
the council table when the district
council’s assets manager Murray
Washington raised the issue of the
current Speed Limit Bylaw 2006
lapsing.
The bylaw lapsed in 2016 but
had two years until it officially
expires.
It was questioned if the bylaw
lapsed would there be no law in
place and people could do whatever
they want on the roads.
But it was confirmed by chief
executive David Ward if the bylaw
lapses it holds and changes cannot
be made to the speed limits when
it expired until it is renewed.

RESIDENTS OF a Prebbleton
subdivision have been left
frustrated after finding
themselves in a fibre broadband
dead spot.
A section of Lindsay Drive
was not included in broadband
company Enable’s original fibre
coverage plan that rolled out last
year.
Fibre cable was included in a
recent extension of the road for
a new subdivision which has
left a small zone of 20 houses in
the middle of the street unconnected.
Greg Cook, a resident of Lindsay
Drive whose house is inside
the dead spot said the situation
was frustrating.
“It’s really annoying because
virtually all of Prebbleton has
fibre except for our little zone.
No one seems to be taking responsibility
for the problem.”
Enable initially told Mr Cook
that his household would be
part of another upcoming fibre
roll out, however, the company
recently confirmed that it is
not contracted to install fibre
in his area and advised him to
speak to the secondary network
provider Chorus.
When Mr Cook spoke to Chorus
they said they were unable
to help.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Mr Cook works from home

Auckland and Bangkok. He said
no connection to high speed
internet has made life extremely
difficult.
Enable is owned by Christchurch
City Holdings, the commercial
arm of the city council.
It began a roll-out across
Christchurch in 2011, however,
it didn’t reach Prebbleton until
early 2017.
Internet New Zealand
outreach and engagement director
Andrew Cushen said the
situation was difficult as fibre
networks were supposed to give
everyone in the candidate area
access to connectivity but new
developments were not necessarily
part of the deal.
“The onus is on the fibre network
to be clear with residents
on whether their homes are in
the connected area. The original
roll-out map is clear but you
have to assume that new developments
will be built and they
will need access as well.”
Ninety-five per cent of the Enable
cable is now installed across
Christchurch giving 180,000
homes and businesses access.
70,000 homes are connected so
far.
When asked why the section
on Lindsay Drive wasn’t
originally included in the plan,
Enable head of communications
Daniel Herd admitted that they
could have been clearer about
how residents could get connected.
“We admit that good information
hasn’t been given throughout
their inquiry with us. We’re
now going through the process
of seeing whether it’s commercially
viable to provide network
access in that area and that is
what we should have done from
the start.”

River working group formed
• By Emily O’Connell
A WORKING group has been
set up to address ongoing
issues with the Selwyn River/
Waikirikiri.
Selwyn Waihora Zone Committee
member Paul Hodgson,
who joined the committee earlier
this year in attempt to make
a difference to the district’s
water quality issues, is behind
the plan.
He made a presentation to the
committee in April on why a
group needed to be formed and
the need to develop a plan to
restore the river.
The working group, which
was established at a recent committee
meeting, includes Mr
Hodgson, committee members
Les Wanhalla, Ron Pellow, Iaean
Cranwell and district councillor
Murray Lemon.
Other members include Canterbury
University Waterways
Centre for Freshwater Management’s
Katie Nimmo, Fish and
Game’s Scott Pearson, Forest

Water Improvement Mission,
farmers, Runanga, Department
of Conservation and community
members.
The terms of reference, which
outlines the two stages of the
proposed work programme, has
been presented to the committee.
Stage one will have a technical
focus, describing the state of the
river including historical records,
determining available data, what
a healthy Selwyn River would
look like and how this compares
with its current state.

Zone committee chairman

likely to join the working group
and then the Terms of Reference
will be finalised.
“Basically it got approved
within the first couple of
minutes so it was a well written
Terms of Reference and no further
changes needed to be made

The plan aims to combat community
concerns not resolved
at a Environment Canterbury
water seminar series last year.
ECan ran a series of seminars
to reduce tensions between residents
over how water issues in
the Selwyn-Waihora catchment
are managed.

Commuter congestion to ease
Broughton has
concerns with
Brougham St
• By Julia Evans
ONE OF the city’s busiest
roads is set to have its
congestion issues addressed.
Brougham St “corridor
improvements” have been
included in the draft transport
agency investment proposal
2018-27 released by the New
Zealand
Transport
Agency.
About
44,000
vehicles,
including 5000
freight, use the
thoroughfare
Jim Harland
from the
Selwyn
district to
Lyttelton Port each day.
“The Brougham St, State
Highway 76 project is
identified as a proposed
activity, which means it will
continue to be developed,
subject to its new alignment
with the Government policy
statement on land transport
priorities,” NZTA direction
regional relationships Jim
Harland said.
The proposal includes a
budget of between $10
million-$100 million for the
upgrades to increase flow along
the street.
The work would be completed
before 2021, while a
detailed business case and
design would begin when the
plan was approved by Environment
Canterbury’s regional
transport committee before
August 31.
The plan said NZTA will
work with partners, including
the city council and Selwyn
District Council, to “investigate
appropriate solutions” to
congestion along Brougham
St to the Rolleston Corridor,
which connects Selwyn to the
Lyttelton Port.
“Doing so will improve customer
access between the south
of the city to Lyttelton Port
and help reduce congestion in
Christchurch’s south-western
suburbs,” the plan said.
It comes as Selwyn Mayor
Sam Broughton raised concerns
about congestion on
the motorway during the city
council’s Long Term Plan
hearings.
Mr Broughton said he anticipates
congestion will get worse
the longer the corridor is left
as it is.

HUNTER
“The southern end of the
motorway connecting to
Brougham St is a major cause
of transport delays to the
wider travelling public, which
is expected to get worse as
time goes on,” Mr Broughton
said.
This was inevitable with the
expected population increases
in both Selwyn and Christchurch,
he said.
City council manager planning
and delivery transport
Lynette Ellis said it would work
with NZTA to “effectively and
efficiently” keep the transport
network running, including
Brougham St.

to any colour, the louvre comes
standard with an electronic remote
control as well as a rain sensor
which gives you huge flexibility on
how to use the system.
The verandas are Stratco’s own
unique leading edge design and
componentry. Steve is pleased to
be able to offer a bespoke veranda
at the same price as a standard
product, because Stratco has
the design tools that enable the
veranda to be custom-designed to
your size, layout, and attachment
requirements.
The process is simple: Steve
will talk through the possibilities
with you and then measure and
quote, which is free with no
obligation. Stratco then designs,
manufactures, and installs the
verandas and louvres themselves.
It’s a one-stop-shop, with all the
project management and heavy
lifting taken care of, leaving you
hands free to thumb your nose at
our climate chaos.

Adams stands up for quarry neighbours
Selwyn MP Amy Adams
writes about the need
for better rules around
quarrying in the district
HERE IN the Selwyn electorate
we have major ongoing concerns
around the location and
operation of quarries.
While I understand and agree
that we need a secure supply
of aggregate for local roading
projects and the Christchurch
rebuild, we are fortunate to
have significant amounts of the
resource around us and it is my
view that land near residential
areas and sensitive businesses
is not the right location for
quarries.
I have been advocating on
behalf of Yaldhurst residents
who appear to have been badly
affected by silica dust from
quarrying activities in their
neighbourhood, so I can fully
appreciate why Templeton
residents are very concerned
about the proposal for a quarry
to be located on Dawsons Rd.
While the consent conditions
for this sort of activity normally
contain requirements around
dust mitigation, it seems to me
that in practice very little, if any,
effective monitoring has in the
past occurred to ensure consent
conditions are being met and it
has taken significant work to get
appropriate monitoring of dust
levels under way.
It is important to understand
that in all cases, the decision
whether to grant consent for any
quarry is one made by the local
authority (the council) and not
by the Government. Given that,
as the local MP, I don’t control or
have a say in these decisions.
However, I firmly believe that
such consents should always be
notified so that residents can
have their say, and I am pleased
that Fulton Hogan has indicated
this will be the case for the
proposed Dawsons Rd quarry.
I am also concerned that there
are not proper minimum setback
requirements for quarries in
council plans (which set land use
rules for the district).
Amy Adams
Selwyn MP
ADVOCATE: Amy Adams
has been speaking up on
behalf of Yaldhurst residents
who appear to have been
badly affected by silica
dust from quarrying in their
neighbourhood.
I understand that health and
environmental organisations
have determined that a setback
of up to 500m should be
maintained from any quarryingrelated
activity to any residential
property to minimise related
impacts on residents. I agree
with this and would like to see
quarrying of greywacke where
silica dust is present made a
prohibited activity within 500m
of residential properties.
I have met with the mayors
of both the Selwyn district and
Christchurch city, and also with
Environment Canterbury, and
have raised my concerns with
them about the appropriateness
of allowing quarries near
people’s homes.
In addition to the impact
on residents from the dust
and heavy truck movements
associated with the quarrying,
this kind of activity could render
land that could be appropriate
for future housing developments
or commercial purposes
unusable for these purposes in
the future. And so I encourage
councils to consider the optimal
long-term land use for any site
when considering any quarrying
application.
While decisions will always
remain in the control of local
councils, rather than me as
your MP, I can assure you I will
continue to make my position
clear on behalf of affected local
residents and support them in
having their concerns on this
matter heard.

ROLLESTON
If you think Bridgestone Rolleston does
just tyres, you might be in for a surprise.
While, of course, it is well-placed to solve
any tyre-related problem, it is so much
more.
One hundred percent New Zealand
owned and operated, and part of a
large network of South Island tyre and
mechanical repair specialists, Bridgestone
Rolleston provides all manner of services
for private car owners, fleet vehicles, farm
and heavy equipment.
Manager Tim Smith and his wife
Coralyn head a team of nine full time
tyre fitters, fleet servicemen, wheel
alignment specialists and mechanics.
Tim’s background is in the tyre industry
as, among other things, a fleet serviceman
and wheel alignment technician, and has
been managing Bridgestone Rolleston for
the last three years.
Located on Jones Road, directly across
the train tracks from the BP, Bridgestone
Rolleston is part of one of New Zealand’s
most trusted tyre brands. In addition
to providing new tyres and servicing
anything with a tyre on it, it provides many
other services including WOF, oil changes
and servicing. If you book a full service,
the WOF is free. Some conditions apply, so
talk to the team about that offer.
As the colder months approach,
Bridgestone Rolleston recommend
several checks on your car, including
tyre treads, batteries – they supply new
batteries – and tyre pressure checks,
which are free. While you are getting that
done, you may want to discuss the benefits
of nitrogen tyre inflation, which can give
you better fuel economy, improved road
grip, and longer lasting tyres.
Other services include full grooming, a
24/7 call out service to change and fix flat
tyres, car and truck wheel alignments, and
they retread truck tyres. Retreads are cost
effective and environmentally friendly.
All tyres disposed of, however, are done
so in an ethical manner.
Farmlands members, Bridgestone
Rolleston provide services to rural
customers Selwyn-wide, including a no
charge call out during business hours for
farmers, and a 24/7 tyre service where
some charges may apply.
It honours AA Smartfuel cards and there
are finance options available on all services
and products, and the latest equipment
and technology is used including full
mechanical diagnostic scanning.
At 847 Jones Road, bring in your car,
have a complementary coffee and sit in
the massage chair while you wait.

pumpkin weigh-in
Weedons gets sports facility
upgrade
The old existing Weedons Cricket and Tennis Clubrooms are set
to be demolished this week to make way for the new Weedons
Community Pavilion, an inclusive facility for the tennis and cricket
clubs, as well as the wider community.
Demolition should be completed within a week. Building of the new
pavilion will then start onsite, with completion targeted for October
this year.
The area will be fenced off during demolition and construction,
however access to the tennis courts and golf course should not be
affected during this time.
Artist’s impression of the new Weedons Community Pavilion
Last month Mayor Sam Broughton hosted the People’s Pumpkin Party at Foster Park.
Local schools, mayors and councillors have been growing pumpkins over the summer and these
were all brought along for the big weigh-in.
There were around 15 pumpkins up for judging, among them some huge entries from
Christchurch Mayor Lianne Dalziel and local schools. Rolleston School’s mega pumpkin took out
the top prize of $500, weighing in at a whopping 31.8kg. The next heaviest was Lincoln School’s
pumpkin weighing in at 28.1kg.
Rolleston School students and teachers said the winnings would likely go towards the school’s
new playground.
Mayor Sam also ran a competition for students to create an A3 poster about water and nutrient
management for growing the pumpkin. A small group of students from Sheffield School won and
the prize of $500 will go towards their school.
The idea for the competition came from Selwyn-Waihora Zone Committee chair Allen Lim, to help
generate discussion about how things grow in Canterbury and the water and nutrients required to
make things grow.
The pumpkins will now be harvested for their seeds, which will be used for the seedlings offered
in next year’s competition, which organisers hoped would be bigger and better.
Drop-off days collect tonnes of recyclables
Two Community Recycling Drop-off Days in Malvern and Ellesmere have collected over 25 tonnes
of garden waste for composting, along with over 6.5 tonnes of scrap metal and around 160 tyres
for recycling.
The two drop-off days were held near Leeston and Darfield providing residents with an alternative
drop-off point for their garden waste and some types of recyclables.
Over the two days, 190 vehicles dropped off their garden waste, scrap metal and other recyclables for
a small charge. The events were managed by Council’s Contractor, Sicon Ltd. Volunteer assistance
was provided by members of the Ellesmere Heritage Park, and in Malvern, the Malvern Lions Club and
Hororata Golf Club helped out.
Donations have been made to those organisations in recognition of their volunteer assistance on the
respective drop-off days.
Garden waste can normally be disposed of either through optional Council kerbside green organics bins in
townships or at the Pines Resource Recovery Park near Rolleston. Garden waste can also be composted
in your back yard. Information about home composting is available online at www.selwyn.govt.nz/rubbish
under the ‘organic collection’ link.
You can also recycle your scrap metal and a range of other recyclables at the Pines Resource Recovery
Park free of charge.
Council Solid Waste Manager Andrew Boyd says it was encouraging to see so many residents turn up
and dispose of these materials in a way that will benefit the environment, while supporting local groups
through donations.

secretary
Gary Doyle
talks about
roading
issues in the
area.
Wednesday May 16 2018
Roads can’t cope with traffic increase
ROADING AND general traffic
issues have long been a bone
of contention in the Selwyn
district.
In the past, the district council
would receive funding from
central Government based on
certain criteria.
To obtain this funding, it was
necessary to achieve a ‘benefit
cost radio’ – known as BCR for
short – of four.
During my term on the
district council, we rapidly
achieved sealing all roads in the
district that reached this level.
Then, due to the foresight of
previous councils, we were able
to fully fund the sealing of even
more roads down to a BCR of
two.
Now, while this was seen by
many as a massive step forward,
it came with ongoing issues.
Sealed roads are easier to drive
on and will always be better
than shingle roads, but they
require maintenance, and this is
costly. It also meant that the vast
majority of the roads so treated
were only done to the bare legal
width.
As a result, this has raised
serious concerns as the traffic
STRUGGLING: Like many roads in the district, Maddisons Rd
is not coping with the increase in traffic.
patterns have changed. We now
see heavy traffic using roads on
a regular basis that were not designed
for them. By that I mean
the sub-strata had not been
compacted for it, nor is there the
width for heavy vehicles to pass
safely.
One road in question is
Maddisons Rd. Moves to have
a white line painted down the
centre were continually stalled
by council staff, with the argument
that the road was not wide
enough for there to be a legal
white centre line.
There is currently such a line,
but when it is realised that heavy
vehicle movements have greatly
increased, along with the increase
in cyclists, such cases are
accidents waiting to happen.

arena, even if subsidised between
the Crown and city council, would
still leave an obvious shortfall or
required funding. This stadium
will be patronised by many
in districts including Dunsandel,
Hurunui, Selwyn and Waimakiriri
and also in Christchurch. It is
therefore vital that a precise
consultation process be enacted in
order for ratepayers in these areas
to have the opportunity to appraise
the viability or their rates being
utilised as funding for this regional
sport facility. These sentiments are
reiterated by many.

Scholarships awarded Council to care for
TWO SELWYN woman were
among 27 people awarded with
a Freemasons scholarship at
Parliament last week.
Prebbleton’s Kim Doncaster
was granted $6000 and Lincoln’s
Melissa Derby, $10,000.
Mrs Doncaster is studying
towards a Master of Science at
Canterbury University, specialising
in child and family psychology.
Her Masters thesis is named
The implications of contact for
children in care with their birth
families.
Mrs Doncaster said the scholarship
came as a total surprise
and last week’s presentation was
“really cool.”
After graduating, Mrs Doncaster
hopes to work with mothers
and children suffering with depression
and anxiety, attachment
issues, addiction and trauma.
Miss Derby is studying towards
her Doctor of Philosophy
at Canterbury University.
Her thesis, Restoring Māori
literacy narratives to create
contemporary stories of success,
explores the unique experiences
of emerging bilingual Māori
children and the contextual factors
that support their bilingual
literacy development.
Miss Derby says she was
both surprised and humbled to

receive the scholarship.
She hopes to research and
teach in the broad area of indigenous
self-determination, with
a particular focus on education,
ethnic studies and human rights.
For 40 years Freemasons from
throughout New Zealand have
awarded almost $5.2 million in
scholarships to 1162 of the country’s
university students.
To be eligible for the
scholarship, students must
be completing a degree, be
achieving consistent A- or
higher grades and show
commitment to voluntary and
community service.
football trophies
SELWYN UNITED Football
Club has loaned its trophies to
the Selwyn District Council.
It was the joint winner of the
sports club of the year award at
the Canterbury Sports Awards in
March.
But with no current clubrooms
to house the awards, the club
thought it would offer them to
the council so they could put the
trophies on display.
Club president Darren Sudlow
presented the trophies to Selwyn
Mayor Sam Broughton last week.
“We are proud of getting
them,” Mr Sudlow said.
“We are also grateful to the
council as our facilities at Foster
Park are second to none, and the
possible/probable sport complex
will only further enhance that.”
Selwyn United shared the gong
with Old Boys Collegians Cricket
Club.
The club formed in 2013, an
amalgamation of smaller clubs in
the district, and currently boasts
1200 members.
“That is large in Canterbury
club aspect but we’re only going
to grow [with the district].
“Our club is built on the
goodwill and commitment of
many volunteers without whom

we would not function. These
people make sports clubs in this
country, often with little thanks
for what they do.
“It is nice that in this case,
that work has not gone unrecognised.”
To showcase their efforts,
Mr Sudlow asked if the council
would display the trophy, and
the councillors accepted the offer
and congratulated the club for its
achievement.

Swimming brothers earn scholarships
Grant to help
them reach
full potential
• By Jacob Page
SELWYN SWIM Club brothers
Celyn and Ieuan Edwards
are among the 13 New
Zealanders named Gold Hearts
scholars.
Both are talented swimmers
and the accolade from the
children’s charity, Variety, means
they will both receive up to
$5000 of funding to help them
reach their full potential in the
pool.
The brothers are from
Halswell. Celyn, 17, competed at
the Commonwealth Games this
year, earning personal bests in
the individual medley.
“It was certainly a new experience
for me, usually I only have
400 people in the stands supporting
us so to have 10,000 was
something else,” Celyn said.
He says his younger brother is
showing plenty of promise.
“He’s beating me in a few races
now and seems to be heading on
the right track.”
Celyn holds 23 New Zealand
records and one Oceania record.
He swam at the Berlin IDM meet
and the Australian Swimming
Para Grand Prix last year, and
SWIM BROS: Brothers Celyn and Leuan Edwards push each other to attain their goals in the pool.
at the 2018 Victoria Championships.
Celyn will be using his Gold
Heart Scholarship to assist with
his attendance at development
camps, provided by Paraswimming
New Zealand and the
Selwyn Swim Club. He will also
use the funds to assist in getting
him to upcoming meets, both in
New Zealand and overseas, and
on related equipment costs.
Ieuan, 15, has his sights set on
competing at the 2022 Commonwealth
Games, followed by the
2024 Paralympic Games.
He is also looking to compete
in the New Zealand short course
SPORTS
champs and the New Zealand
Open, as well as attend development
camps hosted by Paraswimming
New Zealand and
the Selwyn Swim Club – each
of which would not be possible
without the Gold Heart Scholarship.
Ieuan holds one New Zealand
record, has won medals at
previous New Zealand short
course championships and New
Zealand Open meets, and is the
joint holder of the 2015 Halberg
Junior Disability Games overall
best athlete,
“My older brother has shown
me that I can attain my goals
because he has done them,”
Ieuan says.
Ieuan wants to represent New
Zealand in the middle-distance
freestyle events.
The scholarship money will
help pay for both swimmers to
attend national training camps
and short course meets.
“He’s a very relaxed older
brother and he gives me a lot of
good advice,” Ieuan said.
He is currently striving to
close the gap between his swim
times and those of the current
New Zealand swim team who
are some five years older than
him.

Lincoln para-athlete gets
boost to achieve goals
• By Jacob Page
LINCOLN para-athlete
Montana Brown’s desire to try
new things has her on the path
to representing New Zealand in
wheelchair racing.
The talented 15-year-old, who
has cerebral palsy and spastic
diplegia, has recently fallen in
love with the sport and now
dedicates a lot of her spare time
to training.
Already an avid target shooter
and boccia player, it is her wheelchair
racing which is starting to
turn heads.
Montana, who attends Cashmere
High School, has been
awarded a Gold Heart Scholarship
from children’s charity,
Variety, worth up to the value of
$5000.
Having only taken up the sport
in October, Montana has already
competed at the Halberg Junior
Disability Games, where she
finished third in the 50m race
and second in both the 100m and
200m races.
Montana is currently using a
borrowed wheelchair from ParaFed
Canterbury, which is not
quite right for her size.
She will be using this funding
to assist in the purchase of a
purpose-built wheelchair of her
own.
“I really love the sport,” she

taken to wheelchair racing quickly and has been awarded a
scholarship from Variety to continue her progression.
says. “When I race, it’s a lot of
effort through my arms and I
often come back with big bruises
but that’s okay because they look
really cool.
Montana credits both ParaFed
Canterbury and Cashmere High
School’s conductive education
programme for allowing her to
have so many sporting opportunities.
Conductive education is
an educational system developed
in Hungary in the 1940s.
Its objective is to enable physically
disabled and multi-disabled
individuals to actively participate
in society by means of intensive
and systematic training and
practice.
Montana said she would like
to represent New Zealand in the
sprint distances of wheelchair
racing at both the Commonwealth
Games and Paralympics
one day soon.
“Having watched the racing
at the Commonwealth Games
(earlier this year), it’s motivated
me to keep training hard and
keep improving.
Ellesmere side named
ELLESMERE RUGBY coach
Alex Robertson says an
even senior competition has
created plenty of depth for the
representative season.
The team will play Queensland
Country in a night fixture
at Dunsandel on June 25, then
head to Ashburton to play
Mid-Canterbury on July 3 in
preparation for their Southbridge
Shield clash with North
Canterbury in Prebbleton on
July 14.
“It’s been a really tight competition
so far which has shown
there is depth within our clubs,”
Robertson said.
“I think eight of the 10 clubs
are represented in this squad,
which is a reflection of how
things have been so far (in 2018).
Roberston is in his second
year as coach and he believes
he learnt a lot from the 2017
campaign.
“This year, we don’t have a
shorter time together as a group
so the need to get combinations
working quickly will be important.”
Ellesmere won back the
Southbridge Shield with a 35-20
win last year which made for
their 10th triumph in 12 years.
Robertson congratulated the
Springston players who have
made the squad in the backs,
Cameron Powell and Michael
Sheenan.
Roberston was aware other
players from outside the squad
may still force their way in
before the games in June,

Lincoln fend off
Proud supporters of
Rugby & Netball in Selwyn
Shirley comeback to take victory
SLIDING IN: Jack Dawson scores for Lincoln, while Jordan Lill also powers his way over the line.
PHOTOS: KAREN CASEY
• By Jacob Page
LINCOLN COMBINED have
shown plenty of mettle to beat
Shirley Boys’ High School 20-18
in their UC Championship rugby
game on Saturday.
Lincoln scored two tries to
none in the first half to lead 12-6
at the break at Lincoln High
School. However, they saw that
lead evaporate as they trailed
midway through the second
half. An unconverted try closed
the gap to a point with 15min to
play.
SBHS we’re forced to rue
three missed long-range penalty
attempts before Lincoln captain
Wil Gaulter slotted a 30m
penalty with 5min to play to
secure the win.
Lincoln coach Mike Wilson
SPORTS
said it was a great confidencebuilder
for his team to win a
tight game after they had lost
13-12 to Rangiora last week.
He said in spite of leading at
halftime, he felt his team were
not patient with the ball.
“I felt like we were trying to
score too quickly and weren’t
building our attack,” he said.
“We just wanted to play with
more conviction and be accurate
in the second half. I felt we
showed plenty of heart to stick
at the task, even when we trailed
because a lot of teams are just
happy to keep it close.”
Wilson praised the efforts of
loosehead prop Jordan Lill.
“I thought in his first start for
us he was really great, he worked
hard and got our first try,”
Wilson said.
No 7 Blair Royal also showed
the physicality the whole forward
pack had been trying to play
with in 2018, Wilson said.
“He was onto everything,
hitting the rucks hard
and carrying with good
physicality when he had the
ball in hand.”
Utility back replacement,
Caleb McStay, also impressed
with his second half
contribution.
Lincoln will play Aoraki
Combined in another home
game on Saturday.
BIG MOMENT: Wil Gualter, who struck the winning penalty
conversion for Lincoln, looks to spread the ball.
Close finish expected in Luisetti Seeds competition
WITH JUST two rounds
remaining in the Luisetti Seeds
combined country division one
rugby competition, there is still
plenty to play for.
Waihora’s 28-17 win over
Ashburton has moved them
just one point behind Saracens
in section A. Meanwhile,
Prebbleton continued their
remarkable season with a 26-17
win over Rakaia to move to
the top of section B. In section
A, five teams have a realistic
chance of claiming the final two
top four spots. Just five points
separate Ashburton in third and
Lincoln in seventh.
The top of section B looks
set to be decided in the final
round at the end of the
month.
Assuming Springston can
account for Hurunui on
Saturday, they will head to tabletoppers
Prebbleton to decide
the top seed heading into the
quarter-finals.

Backyard Critters
Don’t let the raspberry
bud moth spoil your fruit
Mike
Bowie is an
ecologist who
specialises in
entomology
(insects
and other
invertebrates). Each week
he introduces a new species
found in his backyard at
Lincoln. His column aims to
raise public awareness of
biodiversity, the variety of
living things around us
LAST SUMMER I was excited
with the prospect of my
raspberry and boysenberry plants
producing many delicious meals
of fruity goodness.
However, my hopes soon
turned to real disappointment.
On close inspection, I noted
that many of the berries had diseased
sections in them and some
contained a small larva known as
the raspberry bud moth, Heterocrossa
rubophaga.
As the name suggests, the
larvae feed on the buds, but they
also feed on the fruit, spoiling its
appearance and taste.
DESTRUCTIVE: The raspberry bud moth Heterocrossa
rubophaga feed on berries, spoiling their appearance and taste.
Interestingly, the raspberry
bud moth was once considered
a potential biocontrol agent of
blackberry.
The moth is a New Zealand
endemic and is found throughout
the country.
Adults vary from light brown
to dark brown and have a wingspan
of 14-17mm.
The moth forewings have two
distinctive raised scale tufts,
while hind wings are larger with
trailing hairs.
Females can lay up to 200 yellow-green
eggs which a develop a
gold colour.
Larva 1mm emerge from eggs
and develop to 10mm long.
The larvae vary in colour from
clear to pale yellow-green.
They can damage up to 80 per
cent of raspberry buds affecting
productivity.
Canes need to be pruned early
autumn to reduce the incidence
of the pest.
Award for Maddie
Hell Pizza marketing manager Jason Buckley presents
Maddie Collins with her Satan’s Biggest Little Helper
award. Maddie’s initiative in making pillowslips for fellow
patients of Starship Children’s Health and the children’s
ward of Christchurch Hospital earned her the award. Over
an eight-year period, while battling a rare kidney disease,
Maddie made more than 1000 patterned pillowslips to
help brighten the lives of other children. Maddie’s prize
included an all-expenses paid trip to Wellington with her
mother Sarah, including one night’s stay at the QT Museum
Wellington and tickets to the final dress rehearsal of The Jim
Henson Retrospectacle. The award presentation took place
at the hotel, followed by a high tea.

The DairyNZ Climate
Change Roadshow
will stop at Dunsandel
on Monday, 11 June, to
give dairy farmers in the
area an opportunity to gain
more insight and awareness.
“Tackling climate change presents
an opportunity for New Zealand to become global
leaders in climate conscious agribusiness,” says
DairyNZ senior climate change advisor Milena
Scott. “We want our farmers and our broader
industry to be world leading in climate change
mitigation and adaptation.”
The workshops are a commitment by
DairyNZ under the Dairy Action for
Climate Change, an 18-month long plan
to build awareness among the dairy sector
of the science behind climate change.
These include the reasons dairy farmers
need to take action to address the sector’s
greenhouse gas emissions and the current
mitigations options available to them.
“The first step is education. Farmers need
to have a good understanding of climate
change in order to recognise why they need
to address their emissions alongside other
New Zealand businesses and households,”
says Mrs Scott.
“We want farmers to come out of these
workshops understanding how their farm
contributes to New Zealand’s greenhouse
gas profile, and how specific environmental
initiatives can improve their farm’s broader
environmental footprint.
“Farmers need to feel comfortable that
adopting new environmental initiatives
will help lead to farm businesses that are
both profitable and sustainable.
“Agricultural emissions are a challenge
that the global food sector is dealing with,
and we have an opportunity to show the
world that it is possible to produce milk
in a sustainable way and do our part to
transition New Zealand to a low emissions
and climate resilient nation.”
Topics covered in the half day workshop
will include; the challenges of climate
change for the dairy sector, reasons why
there is a need to address biological
emissions on farms, actions farmers
can take to reduce on-farm emissions,
scientific research being carried out around
climate change and the current political
environment and development of the Zero
Carbon Bill.
The workshop will also include guest
speakers from the Ministry for the
Environment who will discuss the proposed
Zero Carbon Bill. The consultation period
for this legislation opens on 31 May and
engagement by farmers in this early stage
will ensure the best outcome for the dairy
sector within the final legislation.

SELWYN RURAL LIFE
Arable farmers pull back
on autumn planting
Having come through a tough summer
for growing crops and with current
market signals muted, it appears arable
farmers are pulling back on planned
autumn plantings.
“The flat prices of the last few years
are now rebounding a bit but growers
remain hesitant to plant massive areas,”
says Federated Farmers arable executive
member Brian Leadley.
“With the buoyant demand from the
livestock sectors (dairy in particular), we
anticipate that milling wheat plantings
will reduce as farmers plant feed wheat/
barley instead.”
“If farmers and other end users are
wanting domestically grown and qualityassured
New Zealand-grown grain they
should contact their supplier. If the
signals are strong enough and positive
enough, there is still plenty of time for
growers to change their intentions.”
Leadley comments come after the
release of the Arable Industry Marketing
Initiative (AIMI) April 2018 Survey. It
shows average yields over the six surveyed
crops were down 12 per cent after a
shortened growing season and early
harvest marked by ‘four seasons in one
day’ type weather.
Periods of high rainfall June-
August,when some crops were flooded
out, was followed by the heat of October-
December and periods of heavy rain
hitting hit during key crop establishment
periods.
“With climate change, that’s part of the
game I guess,” says Leadley.
All the surveyed crops had been
harvested by 1 April. This is particularly
unusual for oats, which are generally not
harvested in Southland until well into
May.
“Southland had drought-type conditions
into mid-January, which promoted
quicker growth and earlier maturity. That
probably had a detrimental effect around
yield but it was able to be harvested earlier
and may well have improved quality a bit,”
Brian said. “It was the same with all those
late harvest crops.”
The AIMI survey shows carry-over
stocks of feed wheat and feed barley are
lower than usual, with virtually all harvest
2017 stock sold to end-users. Available
stocks of 2018 harvested grain will also
find a home.
Despite the good conditions for
preparing and planting crops, very little
of autumn sown crops had been planted
by 1 April 2018. The survey indicates that
predicted autumn plantings will be back
by about 3,400 hectares (about a third),
with milling wheat and malting barley
back (reflecting poor price signals from
those sectors), and feed barley up.
“Grain prices over the last couple of
years, from a growers’ perspective, have
been unsustainable for long-term returns
when investment in land, capital for
machinery and so on is added into that
gross income vs growing cost equation.
“So it’s pleasing to see a bit of a revival in
those prices,” says Leadley.
“By the look of the survey results, those
past poor seasons have pushed some
arable growers to look at other options.
The recent prices may have given room
for more optimism.
“The survey has given as a good mark
on farmers’ planting intentions at this
stage. The next AIMI survey in July will
tell us whether those plans changed as a
result of market indicators.”

Your guide to Show Homes & New Sections
in the Selwyn District
Dream it, build it
Occasionally when you step into a show home,
you instantly recognise it is quite unique. Such is the
experience at R & B Builders’ Faringdon show home.
R & B Builders’ directors Ryan Neal and Brett
Armstrong are Licensed Building Practitioners, have each
spent many years in the building industry and are very
proud to bring a range of architecturally designed houses
to the market. Their fresh approach to design and build
and attention to detail, is second to none.
In addition to being experienced builders, Ryan and
Brett are creative types who like to embody their business
motto, “Dream It, Build It” with an innovative use of
materials and design features. The show home at 91
Ledbury Drive, Faringdon is a fantastic example of this
and the quality workmanship R & B clients can expect.
The four bedroom, two storey, 240sqm house
exemplifies a practical use of space while remaining
open and welcoming. Cathedral ceilings throughout
both floors, and especially in the large lounge, enhance
the already spacious feel. A central staircase with glass
balustrade leads to a mezzanine living space between two
of the bedrooms and a powder room. It is a perfect area
for children or teenagers. Skylights bring in additional
light.
A generously sized master bedroom on the ground
floor, features an en-suite and walk-in wardrobe with
sliding doors to the deck outside.
There is plenty of storage space and the centralised
kitchen features high-end appliances and fittings with
a large walk-in scullery which also incorporates the
laundry.
It is a beautiful home, made more so by Interior
Consultant Carol Hartnell, Ryan and Brett’s motherin-law.
Carol is the face of the R & B show home and is
based there from 12pm to 3pm, Wednesday to Saturday
for viewings; on Sundays Brett or Ryan will be there.
Carol is very friendly and approachable and works closely
with Brett and Ryan. They enjoy client interactions
and are big on communication and keeping clients
informed throughout the building process. They can all
provide advice and ideas, or take your ideas and make
them a reality. They work with a highly motivated and
experienced team of builders, architects and suppliers to
bring quality architecturally designed homes to buyers.
