Heritage<br />
bid in the<br />
way of<br />
plans to<br />
develop<br />
Rolly Inn<br />
• By Emily O’Connell<br />
A BID to redevelop the Rolly<br />
Inn site in Rolleston could be<br />
stopped by plans to turn the<br />
hotel into a heritage building.<br />
Owner Russell Lilley is planning,<br />
along with others, to pull<br />
down the hotel and build a bar,<br />
restaurant, new commercial<br />
buildings and a service station<br />
on the site.<br />
But the district council may<br />
have different plans for the Rolly<br />
Inn.<br />
Last Wednesday the district<br />
plan committee endorsed a<br />
preferred option report that<br />
included a bid to add the hotel,<br />
which was built in 1930, to the<br />
heritage items list.<br />
Mr Lilley told <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
<strong>Times</strong> that he doesn’t want the<br />
hotel to become a heritage item.<br />
He said it was “typical of the<br />
way the world seems to be going<br />
today” where people make up<br />
your mind for you.<br />
He has called the proposal to<br />
add the building to the heritage<br />
list “absolutely ridiculous.”<br />

A BIT of drama in the shire in recent days.<br />
Armed police surrounded a house in<br />
Rolleston on Monday morning (see page<br />
3) and used a stun grenade to convince the<br />
wanted subject he should surrender.<br />
It worked. He obliged and was taken into custody without<br />
further incident.<br />
Wise man.<br />
In the early hours of Friday morning an 18-year-old, more<br />
than four times over the drink driving limit, smashed into a<br />
power pole after a big session in Lincoln. She was unhurt.<br />
Lucky girl.<br />

Drink driving teen to<br />
face court after crashing into pole<br />
• By Emily O’Connell<br />
FROM LINCOLN to Linwood<br />
with a brain sozzled with booze.<br />
And now an 18-year-old<br />
university student will face the<br />
courts after crashing her car<br />
into a power pole in the early<br />
hours of Friday morning.<br />
• By Emily O’Connell<br />
A STUN grenade was used on<br />
a Rolleston house during an<br />
armed offenders squad raid on<br />
Monday.<br />
The dramatic operation in<br />
Othello Drive saw a number of<br />
neighbouring streets cordoned<br />
off. Paramedics were on standby.<br />
But the wanted man sought<br />
by police was captured without<br />
incident about 10.30am on<br />
Monday.<br />
Sergeant Phil Bayne said the<br />
man had failed to appear in<br />
court for breach of community<br />
work.<br />
He said the arrest took about<br />
two and a half hours and the<br />
property involved was occupied<br />
by someone known to the man.<br />
The teenager recorded a<br />
breath alcohol reading of 898<br />
mcg/L after she crashed and<br />
struck the pole at the intersection<br />
of Ellesmere Junction Rd<br />
and Shands Rd at 12.15am.<br />
She had been drinking in Lincoln<br />
and was returning to her<br />
home in Linwood, said Senior<br />
Constable Andy Williamson.<br />
Miraculously she was not<br />
injured.<br />
The legal limit is 250 mcg/l<br />
for someone 20-years-old and<br />
over. Because of her age, she<br />
was not legally allowed to drink<br />
and drive.<br />
“Lucky she, or an innocent<br />
member of the public, was not<br />
killed,” Senior Constable Williamson<br />
said.<br />
She will appear in the<br />
Christchurch District Court on<br />
charges of careless use of a motor<br />
vehicle and driving with excess<br />
breath alcohol concentration in<br />
the next couple of weeks.<br />

ANOTHER DRIVER HITS COW<br />
A cow was killed following<br />
a collision with a vehicle on<br />
Hororata Dunsandel Rd early on<br />
Monday morning. Constable Herb<br />
Inwood said the man driving the<br />
vehicle didn’t suffer any injuries<br />
but his vehicle was damaged. It is<br />
the fourth time a vehicle has hit<br />
wandering stock in the past couple<br />
of months.<br />
TURNING ARROW<br />
An arrow has been installed<br />
at a set of traffic lights at the<br />
intersection of State Highway 1<br />
and Rolleston Drive to try and<br />
stop vehicles hitting signal poles.<br />
About 25,000-30,000 vehicles<br />
drive through the intersection<br />
each day. Sergeant Alex Pickover<br />
is hopeful it will help reduce the<br />
crashes and risk of serious injuries<br />
at the intersection. Last month<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong> learned there had<br />
been 17 incidents in which signal<br />
poles had been damaged at the<br />
intersection over the past 11 years.<br />
TWO CARS COLLIDE<br />
Two vehicles collided at the<br />
intersection of State Highway 1 and<br />
Tennyson St, Rolleston, at 7.25am<br />
on Friday. Sergeant Alex Pickover<br />
said there were no injuries but both<br />
vehicles were damaged.<br />

road safety<br />
Three other people – Barham’s<br />
other passenger, also from<br />
Shirley Boys’ High School, and<br />
two from the oncoming car –<br />
were injured.<br />
On Boxing Day 2016 Lincoln<br />
High School student Samuel<br />
Drost, Ellesmere College student<br />
Cole Hull and Rangi Ruru Girls’<br />
student Lily Moore, all 15, were<br />
killed when the car they were<br />
passengers in failed to take a<br />
corner on Harts Rd near Leeston.<br />
They were not wearing seat<br />
belts.<br />
The 14-year-old unlicensed<br />
driver was seriously injured,<br />
while passenger Alex Brown,<br />
the only one wearing a seat belt,<br />
suffered minor injuries.<br />
Fifty-two of the people killed<br />
on Canterbury roads from<br />
2012-2016 were not wearing seat<br />
belts – the third highest in the<br />
country.<br />
That followed 61 in Auckland,<br />
and 56 in Bay of Plenty.<br />
Head students Petra Campbell,<br />
Taylin Smith and Carlito<br />
Shalfoon believe the mock crash<br />
was worthwhile and were appreciative<br />
of the time emergency<br />
services took out of their day to<br />
do the demonstration.<br />
Petra said it was a “good<br />
representation of what a car<br />
crash actually is” and how long<br />

Heritage bid may disrupt<br />
plan to redevelop Rolly Inn<br />
•From page 1<br />
District councillor Craig<br />
Watson is backing Mr Lilley<br />
but his suggestion to keep the<br />
hotel off the heritage list did not<br />
receive enough support from<br />
fellow councillors.<br />
He said it would be “unfair”<br />
and “almost embarrassing for<br />
Rolleston” if the hotel<br />
became a heritage item.<br />
“It’s putting a lot of<br />
limitations on a hotel that<br />
I would argue most of<br />
Rolleston would not call<br />
a heritage building,” Cr<br />
Watson said.<br />
His advice to Mr Lilley<br />
is to get it demolished in<br />
the next two years while<br />
there are no restrictions in place.<br />
District councillor Jeff Bland<br />
said the building is a “great old<br />
pub” which has historical value.<br />
However, he said the owner<br />
would need to be on-board with<br />
FRUSTRATED:<br />
Rolly Inn<br />
owner Russell<br />
Lilley doesn’t<br />
want the<br />
hotel to be<br />
placed on the<br />

list.<br />
the proposal for it to work.<br />
“I think if you’re going to put<br />
a heritage order on something, it<br />
needs to come with agreement of<br />
the current land owner or owner<br />
of the building,” he said.<br />
The report detailing the proposed<br />
changes is expected to go<br />
out for initial public consultation<br />
in the next month. The<br />
consultation will then be<br />
considered when creating<br />
the draft District Plan. The<br />
draft plan will then go out<br />
for formal consultation<br />
before being finalised.<br />

located across both rural<br />
and urban areas.<br />

CHANGES: A petition has been started for a second, larger dog park in Rolleston<br />
after a fence was installed in the Foster Park dog exercise area last week.<br />
Fence at dog park prompts<br />
users into starting petition<br />
• By Emily O’Connell<br />
MORE THAN 370 people<br />
have signed a petition<br />
for the district council to<br />
create a second, larger dog<br />
park in Rolleston.<br />
This follows a<br />
fence being built<br />
in the Rolleston<br />
dog park last week<br />
so part of it can<br />
be closed off to<br />
the public while<br />
the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Dog<br />
Training Club is<br />
taking sessions.<br />
Concerns have<br />
been raised over<br />
the district council’s<br />
new structure at the<br />
Foster Park dog exercise<br />
area on the corner of<br />
Springston, Rolleston and<br />
Goulds Rds on the Rolleston<br />
Community Page on<br />
Facebook.<br />
“Where was the consultation<br />
from the council?”<br />
one person commented.<br />
“Looks like they have<br />
made a total mess of the<br />
park. What an eyesore<br />
now,” another person said.<br />
In Brief<br />
WELCOMING PLAN<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong>’s Welcoming Plan<br />
was launched on Friday. It<br />
outlines how the district<br />
council will celebrate the<br />
increasing population and<br />
diversity, and what activities<br />
it will deliver to ensure<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> is even more<br />
welcoming for newcomers<br />
and migrants. The plan is<br />
part of the two-year Welcoming<br />
Communities pilot<br />
programme which the<br />
district council was chosen<br />
to take part in along with<br />
eight other councils in five<br />
regions across the country.<br />
John Reid<br />
“Actually looks like a<br />
pretty good rural fence to<br />
me,” a person wrote.<br />
District council major<br />
projects property manager<br />
John Reid said it does not<br />
have a view on<br />
the petition<br />
and there are<br />
no plans for another<br />
dog park<br />
in Rolleston.<br />
“Any future<br />
developments<br />
will need to<br />
go through Annual<br />
or Long<br />
Term Plan<br />
processes,” he<br />
In 10 years the district’s<br />
population is expected to<br />
grow to 79,000. This is a<br />
significant increase from<br />
the current population of<br />
59,000.<br />
FIRST AID COURSE<br />
The Ladbrooks Community<br />
Hall Committee is<br />
sponsoring an accredited<br />
first aid course on September<br />
15 and 16. There are<br />
free places available for<br />
residents of the Ladbrooks<br />
rating area. For more information<br />
phone 322 4490<br />
in the evenings or email<br />
said.<br />
Mr Reid said the fence is<br />
a result of complaints from<br />
people about training<br />
sessions being difficult to<br />
conduct when other dogs<br />
are running through the<br />
area.<br />
“Public dog owners are<br />
also finding it hard to supervise<br />
their dogs without<br />
interrupting dog training,”<br />
he said.<br />
The <strong>Selwyn</strong> Dog Training<br />
Club uses the park on<br />
Tuesdays, Wednesdays<br />
and Thursdays from 6.30-<br />
9pm, on Sundays from<br />
10am-noon and on the<br />
occasional weekend for<br />
competitions.<br />
There is no final cost for<br />
the fence yet as it has just<br />
been completed. However,<br />
in July Mr Reid told <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
<strong>Times</strong> it was expected<br />
to cost about $5000-$7000.<br />
The fence is a permanent<br />
structure. However, it is<br />
being described as “temporary”<br />
because it will<br />
have a number of large<br />
gates that will be left open,<br />
except when the club is<br />
running a training session.<br />

Tohu<br />
‘To Think’<br />
‘A mark, a sign.’<br />
‘Anything serving as a reminder – token of rememberance”<br />
Little River Gallery shows for the second time a collaborative exhibition by Robin Slow (painting), Brian Flintoff<br />
(carving) and Bob Bickerton (soundscape). This year they follow on in the tradition of visually forwarding<br />
histories and stories to be reflected on and become immersed in.<br />
Robin Slow an artist whose work is also held in private collections, galleries and marae throughout the country<br />
has used paint to create traditional forms used in conjunction with natural forms. The method of producing the<br />
work has a traditional background but there has been an evolving of techniques and materials. This series of<br />
works takes some traditional tohu, be it in the form of the composition, the patterns created or the creatures. It<br />
explores the past and present to produce another tohu and that is the sign towards the future.<br />
For many years, Brian Flintoff has created taonga puoro (musical instruments) for players and musicians<br />
throughout the country. Not only do these create unique sounds but he has carved into them the stories and<br />
histories that are woven into their function. His works are held in many major galleries throughout the world as<br />
well as collections and marae here in Aotearoa.<br />
From the painted images, carvings and reference points each has used in their works, Bob Bickerton created a<br />
CD to enhance aspects visually but aurally as well to form a piece to be contemplated on and be enriched by.<br />
Tohu (signs) surround us manifesting before and through our differing senses. Presented as a-tinana<br />
(physical) and wha wairua (spiritual) appearances, patterns, actions, sounds of the surrounding environment<br />
encompassing the seen and unseen, the ora and the mate.

EVENTS REGULARY POSTED ON<br />
At the heart of Lincoln<br />
40 years of acting<br />
Established in 1977,<br />
Kirwee Players has<br />
a long history of<br />
providing shows<br />
in <strong>Selwyn</strong>. Kirwee<br />
resident Mable<br />
Knight has been<br />
involved with the<br />
group for 40 years.<br />
Emily O’Connell talks<br />
to her about her love<br />
for theatre<br />
What made you join the<br />
Kirwee Players?<br />
My love of theatre, really.<br />
I came from Hokitika<br />
on the West Coast and<br />
there wasn’t anything like<br />
that. They had a Hokitika<br />
society going then. I was<br />
really busy, I was a primary<br />
school teacher. So when<br />
I came over here I went<br />
to their second show and<br />
I came home and said:<br />
‘That’s it, that’s for me.’ I<br />
really loved it. I’ve been<br />
in most of the shows ever<br />
since.<br />
Why did you move from<br />
Hokitika to Kirwee?<br />
I was teaching and I<br />
took up a teaching job in<br />
Christchurch. I went from<br />
Hokitika Primary School<br />
to Oaklands School . . . I<br />
got tired of driving into the<br />
sun in the morning and<br />
the sun coming back and I<br />
went to Sheffield Primary<br />
School and absolutely loved<br />
the country school teaching.<br />
How long did you teach<br />
at Sheffield Primary<br />
School for?<br />
I think it was something<br />
like 13 or 14 years.<br />
Have you lived anywhere<br />
other than Hokitika<br />
and Kirwee?<br />
I was born in Westport<br />
and then went to training<br />
college then after training<br />
college, with marriage<br />
and what-not, I lived in<br />
Hokitika and taught in<br />
CREATIVE: Former<br />
primary school teacher<br />
Mable Knight’s passion<br />
for music goes back to<br />
her childhood.<br />
Hokitika. I taught pretty<br />
well continuously for<br />
nearly 30 years.<br />
What did you learn<br />
from teaching?<br />
I learnt that children can<br />
surprise you all the time.<br />
Children are always wanting<br />
to learn more and if<br />
you can open up their eyes,<br />
they’ll take it on for themselves.<br />
I think the role of<br />
the teacher is to give them<br />
the tools and then they<br />
have urge to go further.<br />
What’s your favourite<br />
thing about Kirwee?<br />
We’ve been farmers you<br />
see, so I still love the openair<br />
space. It’s quite funny<br />
after living on a farm you<br />
come into a subdivision<br />
where there’s houses and<br />
neighbours and things<br />
. . . I wouldn’t go anywhere<br />
else other than Kirwee<br />
because I think the people<br />
of Kirwee, and Malvern in<br />
particular, are really nice.<br />
We’ve got all our friends<br />
here and we just like the<br />
lifestyle out here.<br />
What type of farming<br />
did you do?<br />
My husband David was<br />
SELWYN TIMES<br />
a farmer when I married<br />
him and at Courtenay,<br />
mostly we raised dairy<br />
heifers and sheep and had<br />
some bulls.<br />
How has Kirwee<br />
changed since you’ve lived<br />
there?<br />
The Kirwee district itself<br />
with subdivisions and that<br />
has really grown but I love<br />
living out in the country,<br />
I could never go to the<br />
city. I also sing with the<br />
Christchurch City Chorus,<br />
I’ve been there for 25 years<br />
too and that’s in the city.<br />
That’s the only reason I<br />
really go into the city. And<br />
that again is singing,<br />
a capella, barber shop style<br />
and I’ve been overseas<br />
backwards and forwards<br />
with the Sweet Adelines<br />
International for a number<br />
of years now.<br />
Have you always been<br />
into theatre and singing?<br />
How did it start?<br />
Well after church on a<br />
Sunday night . . . we’d sit<br />
around mum’s organ and<br />
we’d sing. And I have a<br />
twin sister and we used to<br />
always love harmonising.<br />
What’s your favourite<br />
type of song to sing?<br />
I love ballads. Ballads<br />
that tell a story. Some of<br />
today’s songs that Adele<br />
sings, people like that, that<br />
you can relate to the words,<br />
that’s the kind of ballad I<br />
like to sing.<br />
What has made you stay<br />
with the Kirwee Players?<br />
I enjoy the people, the<br />
group. They’ve worked<br />
really hard over the years,<br />
the Kirwee Players, to get<br />
to where they are today. It’s<br />
been a continual growing<br />
journey for the Kirwee<br />
Players, it really has. The<br />
productions now are so<br />
professional that I still<br />
think they’re the envy of<br />
some of the Christchurch<br />
groups, I’m just saying<br />
that, but I think they are.<br />

TALENT: Mable Knight says it’s her love for theatre which got her involved with the Kirwee<br />
Players 40 years ago and the people<br />
100%<br />
CapItal GaIn<br />
to the ResIDent<br />
What has been the most<br />
memorable show you’ve been a<br />
part of and why?<br />
Well I took the role of Bloody<br />
Mary in South Pacific and then<br />
I’ve directed shows too . . . it’s a<br />
great role [playing Bloody Mary]<br />
to do and I love the songs I had to<br />
sing . . . I just love playing strong<br />
character roles . . . But I’ve also<br />
thoroughly enjoyed working<br />
backstage and I’ve been on the<br />
committee for a good number of<br />
years.<br />
How has the Kirwee Players<br />
changed since you’ve been a part<br />
of it?<br />
I think we have continually<br />
updated and upgraded our sound<br />
and our lighting and all the technical<br />
things we can do on stage.<br />
We’re really improved those over<br />
the years. I think we run more<br />
professionally now.<br />
How did you get into directing?<br />
I used to write children’s<br />
shows when I taught at Sheffield<br />
Primary School and I’d put on<br />
an annual production and I’d<br />
involve the whole school. So I<br />
would write the story line and<br />
then I would put it on every year<br />
and I used to love doing that with<br />
the children at Sheffield Primary.<br />
And then with Kirwee Players, I<br />
was in the chorus and then I took<br />
roles on and I really enjoyed it.<br />
Then I was asked to direct one<br />
year and I did and I thoroughly<br />
enjoyed that experience too.<br />
Where do you see the future<br />
of the Kirwee Players?<br />
My generation, we’re looking<br />
for people to come in and fill our<br />
slots. You know what I mean? We<br />
can’t always be there. The aim of<br />
the Kirwee Players is to get more<br />
youth on the committee. We have<br />
got quite a young committee now<br />
which is really good for those of<br />
us who are a lot older now and<br />
see ourselves moving back off it<br />
. . . we’re lucky because when we<br />
audition for people to come in to<br />
shows, we’re getting them from<br />
the city, we’re getting them coming<br />
out and we have our regulars<br />
too but we’re always looking for<br />
new blood.<br />

HAVE YOUR SAY: The district council is calling for public<br />
consultation on its current District Plan. <br />
District Plan<br />
consultation open<br />
THE PUBLIC is being asked<br />
to have their say on the current<br />
District Plan.<br />
The plan is essentially the district’s<br />
rule book on how land can<br />
be used and developed.<br />
A review is being undertaken<br />
by the district council to make<br />
sure it’s still fit for purpose and<br />
up to date with any relevant<br />
changes which have happened<br />
since the last plan was notified.<br />
All councils are required to review<br />
their plan every 10 years.<br />
The district council recently<br />
released draft changes to a range<br />
of topics in the plan for public<br />
feedback.<br />
District council environmental<br />
services manager Tim Harris<br />
said it wants to ensure that the<br />
new plan helps rural, business<br />
and residential areas to thrive.<br />
“At the same time we want to<br />
make sure our district remains<br />
uniquely <strong>Selwyn</strong> – protecting<br />
the things that are important to<br />
the character of the district, and<br />
managing our natural and physical<br />
resources in a sustainable way.<br />
“The plan potentially affects a<br />
wide cross-section of the community.<br />
It controls the things<br />
you can do on your property, for<br />
example, and what activities are<br />
allowed to take place in different<br />
parts of the district.<br />
“It’s important that we hear<br />
from as many people as possible<br />
to check on whether we’re on<br />
the right track with the draft<br />
changes we’re proposing.”<br />
The changes being considered<br />
in this phase of consultation<br />
span across 22 different topics<br />
which are likely to have most<br />
impact and be of most interest to<br />
the wider public.<br />
Topics have been grouped<br />
into four categories according<br />
to where they occur and who<br />
they’re most likely to affect<br />
business, rural, residential and<br />
district-wide.<br />
“Anyone can provide their<br />
feedback on the draft changes<br />
proposed so far. We encourage<br />
you to also provide any supporting<br />
facts, data, examples and<br />
documentation to support your<br />
comments.”<br />
More topics are expected to<br />
be added to the consultation<br />
summary document later in the<br />
month.<br />
Feedback from this consultation<br />
will help inform the new<br />
rules to be included in the proposed<br />
plan, which is expected<br />
to be notified for formal public<br />
consultation in early 2020.<br />
The new plan is anticipated<br />
to be in place, subject to any<br />
Environment Court appeals, in<br />
early 2022. Until then any new<br />
resource applications will be assessed<br />
against the current plan.<br />
•Feedback can be<br />
provided online, at drop-in<br />
sessions this month and<br />
next, by email or post. It<br />
is open until October 8.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
More housing can only be a good thing<br />
Rolleston<br />
resident<br />
Alice Watson<br />
is studying a<br />
Bachelor of<br />
Agriculture<br />
at Lincoln<br />
University<br />
and talks<br />
about the housing boom in<br />
the district<br />
When travelling through and<br />
around Rolleston, it’s almost<br />
impossible to go far without<br />
passing either an advertisement<br />
for a new or growing subdivision<br />
or houses under construction.<br />
The booming residential expansion<br />
that began in the wake<br />
of the 2010/11 earthquakes<br />
seems to have proven itself the<br />
gift that keeps on giving.<br />
As a fairly sheltered Lincoln<br />
student I could easily grumble<br />
on about the downsides of the<br />
continuous disappearance of<br />
so many trees and paddocks,<br />
but the benefits of the rapid<br />
developments in the district are<br />
undeniable.<br />
Plentiful housing seems to be<br />
helping keep properties (relatively)<br />
affordable, which certainly<br />
beat wrangling shortages<br />
akin to those up the northern<br />
end of the nation.<br />
For young professionals and<br />
students, the continued construction<br />
of new houses makes<br />
the area quite attractive; there<br />
aren’t many places in this country<br />
so near a major city where<br />
the weekly rent can be almost<br />
equal to your grocery bill.<br />
Financials aside, many I’ve<br />
met have expressed their enjoyment<br />
of Rolleston and Lincoln’s<br />
‘out-of-town’ feel and the spaciousness,<br />
with Christchurch<br />
close enough to be convenient.<br />
The peace and pace works<br />
for retirees and families, and<br />
number of schools in the area<br />
has almost tripled in the last<br />
five years.<br />
All in all, this little area seems<br />
to suit people at every stage of<br />
life; for growing a community<br />
this can only be a good thing.<br />
UNDER CONSTRUCTION: Rolleston resident Alice Watson talks<br />
about the increase of housing in the district and its effects. <br />
Readers respond to the<br />
potholes on West Belt in<br />
Lincoln being filled in by<br />
Christmas<br />
Gayle Elizabeth Lord –<br />
Well they deserve to have this<br />
pothole fixed after so long but<br />
maybe then some of the ones<br />
around from the earthquake<br />
could get done properly. Sick of<br />
patch-ups that fail as soon as we<br />
get rain. Doesn’t do much for a<br />
car’s suspension when you can’t<br />
see the hole in the dark. Actually<br />
not very good for my teeth either.<br />
Barry Clarke – Lots of<br />
potholes everywhere, council too<br />
busy making cycle lanes to fix<br />
potholes, I don’t mind cycle lanes<br />
but the cyclists still ride on the<br />
footpath or road.<br />
Taina Kahutia Tawhitopou<br />
Connell – What a joke.<br />
Readers respond to the<br />
fourth car v cow crash in<br />
the past couple of months<br />
Eileen Gundesen – We<br />
used to have a farm with cows.<br />
Often I would find members<br />
of the public in our paddocks,<br />
picnicking, picking watercress<br />
from our water races or picking<br />
up wood or pine cones. They got<br />
into the paddocks via the gates,<br />
often leaving them open or not<br />
latched correctly. So don’t always<br />
blame the farmers.<br />
Bruce Marshall – Police<br />
are reminding motorists to keep<br />
speed down at night which is<br />
good advice especially in rural<br />
areas. However, livestock has no<br />
place on roads at anytime unless<br />
being shifted along a road in a<br />
controlled manner. Owners of<br />
livestock need to lift their game.<br />
Janys Rebecca Harrison<br />
– Here’s an idea – the cattle<br />
farmers should be fined if their<br />
cows cause any crashes like this.<br />
Cars and cows obviously do not<br />
go together very well. If there’s a<br />
repeat of this, somebody could<br />
get seriously injured or even die.<br />
Nicola Loach – I know these<br />
are cows, but this should also be<br />
a polite reminder to horse riders<br />
to make themselves as visible<br />
as they can if road riding, and<br />
ensure all gates and fences are<br />
secure. What a terrible outcome<br />
for everyone.<br />
Annette Wilson – Phone<br />
*555. The farmer can’t get<br />
the stock off the road if he<br />
doesn’t know about it. The police<br />
work with the farmers. No one<br />
wants the public injured or the<br />
stock.<br />
Kathryn Macgregor –<br />
Farmers in <strong>Selwyn</strong> need to be<br />
spoken to.

Kirkwood–Technology, ‘Opportunities’<br />
‘Schooling for the Whole Child’<br />
The focus of a successful school is the pupil. The growth of our children at Kirkwood is<br />
supported by the many extension opportunities we offer over and above our classroom activities.<br />

Technology<br />
Some of the highlights in our<br />
technology area include:<br />
• Robotics;<br />
• 3D Printing;<br />
• EPro8 Challenge;<br />
• Fashion Design and Make.<br />
Technology is a favourite area for<br />
many students due to the ‘handson’<br />
problem solving approach to<br />
learning.<br />
Extension Groups, Competitions<br />
and Events<br />
Our students have many opportunities to participate in various<br />
competitions and events offered at Kirkwood.<br />

• School Production;<br />
• School Council.<br />
Music<br />
Music is taught as part of the<br />
performing arts curriculum in<br />
all classrooms, however extra<br />
opportunities are available<br />
for students to learn a wide<br />
variety of music.<br />
This year our students have<br />
been learning the Guitar,<br />
Piano, Violin, Drums, Flute,<br />
singing in the Choir and<br />
playing in the Orchestra.<br />
We also have a Rock Band<br />
which performs in assemblies<br />
during the year.<br />

is recognised with our ‘Blues’ Awards system.<br />

within the classrooms there are many other sports<br />

Rolleston, West<br />
Melton school<br />
bands on quest<br />
to be rock stars<br />
THEY MAY be young but they<br />
know how to rock.<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> schools took to the<br />
stage last week in the Canterbury<br />
regional Rockshop Bandquest.<br />
Bandquest is a nationwide music<br />
contest for intermediate and primary<br />
school pupils.<br />
The competition is in its eighth<br />
year and attracted 46 bands in<br />
the Canterbury region, which<br />
competed over three nights at St<br />
Margaret’s College.<br />
Rolleston School band Storm<br />
Breaker were third in last<br />
Tuesday’s event. West Melton<br />
School pupil Islan McPherson<br />
was named ‘killer’ guitarist on the<br />
same night for his playing skills.<br />
Event organiser Matt Ealand<br />
said the performances mixed<br />
sophistication with a lack of<br />
self-consciousness, enhanced<br />
by the supportive framework of<br />
Bandquest.<br />
“They’ve been watching TV and<br />
YouTube, they’re aware of what<br />
established musicians are doing<br />
Hamish, Blake and<br />
Trent were among<br />
the West Melton<br />
School pupils at a<br />
plantout day in the<br />
Kowhai Sanctuary on<br />
Thompsons Rd. In<br />
addition to planting<br />
440 natives, the<br />
pupils studied aquatic<br />
invertebrates from the<br />
Waimakariri River and<br />
terrestrial invertebrates<br />
in the plants. The trip<br />
was made possible<br />
with support of<br />
parents, Enviroschools,<br />
Te Ara Kakariki<br />
and Environment<br />
Canterbury.<br />
SCHOOLS<br />
and they want to emulate them,”<br />
he said.<br />
“Rockshop Bandquest is a<br />
confidence-builder that lifts their<br />
game musically, and they tend<br />
to take that with them to high<br />
school, with proven benefits<br />
socially and academically.”<br />
Rockshop spokesman Hamish<br />
Jackson said for many of the<br />
pupils, Rockshop Bandquest is<br />
the biggest musical moment of<br />
their lives. “Bandquest provides a<br />
unique opportunity to kids at this<br />
age. It’s all about participation and<br />
giving it a go. The kids definitely<br />
throw themselves into it and the<br />
results have been amazing,” he<br />
said.<br />
More than 215 bands have entered<br />
Rockshop Bandquest across<br />
the country this year, performing<br />
in events which started on <strong>August</strong><br />
20 and are set to finish on Monday<br />
night. The national final will be<br />
broadcast online with the results<br />
announced on September 20.<br />

Have you found a mystery<br />
rock around Faringdon?<br />

Etiquette for<br />
dog owners<br />
With spring just around the corner, our district’s dog owners will be taking advantage of the<br />
warmer weather to enjoy all of the great outdoor facilities we have to offer.<br />
Around the district there are 36 parks where dogs can run off leashes, although there are some<br />
minor rules which owners need to abide by. This includes staying at least five metres away from<br />
activities like sporting fixtures and facilities such as playgrounds.<br />
Prohibited dog exercise areas include golf courses on Council Reserves, skate parks, secondary<br />
and primary schools and the Springston South Domain.<br />
Senior Animal Control Officer Steve Clarke says the Council wants to see everyone in the<br />
community enjoy what the <strong>Selwyn</strong> district has to offer.<br />
“The key to having a good balance between dog owners and general facility users is making sure<br />
that the owners have their animals under effective control.<br />
“We are happy to see dog owners running their pets, but we also want to see them respect other<br />
users of facilities, that’s why we need owners to have effective control of their dogs.<br />
“What we mean by effective control is owners being able to call their dogs back quickly if they are<br />
causing any issues to other users.”<br />
Mr Clarke asks owners to have their dogs under effective control in public spaces where wildlife<br />
is present.<br />
He says for the most part Animal Control is really happy with the level of responsibility <strong>Selwyn</strong> dog<br />
owners show when exercising their pets.<br />
If anyone does want to report anti-social behaviour they can call the Council line on<br />
347 2800.<br />
Not grate<br />
in Leeston<br />
Our grates covering sumps on<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> Street in Leeston are<br />
being dunked or stolen, and<br />
this is causing a significant<br />
safety risk to road users and<br />
pedestrians. Over the last two<br />
weeks five sump grates have<br />
been lifted up and dumped into<br />
the sump, or stolen. Grates are<br />
cast iron, and very heavy so<br />
would take a lot of strength<br />
to move.<br />
Council is asking those<br />
responsible to please stop<br />
and for the public to keep an<br />
eye out, and if they see any<br />
suspicious activity around the<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> Street area to give<br />
Council a call on (03) 347-2800<br />
Have a Go Day a hit in Darfield<br />
Over 800 people spent their Sunday at the Darfield Domain and<br />
Recreation Centre, attending this years Have a Go Day.<br />
Have a Go Day is designed to showcase the sport and recreation<br />
activities Darfield and the wider <strong>Selwyn</strong> district has to offer, inviting<br />
residents to have a go at a variety of sports.<br />
District Review - Family flats<br />
With our current District Plan up for review, <strong>Selwyn</strong> District Council<br />
has put a range of topics and draft changes out for public consultation.<br />
The District Plan is essentially the district’s rule book on how land<br />
can be used and developed. The Council is undertaking the review<br />
to make sure the Plan is still fit for purpose and up to date. All<br />
councils are required to review their District Plan every 10 years.<br />
Currently there are 22 topics out for consultation and over the next<br />
few weeks we will look at some of the key topics and the potential<br />
changes being considered.<br />
One topic the Council has identified as needing to be reviewed in<br />
the current District Plan is family flats.<br />
Under the current rules there has been potential confusion around<br />
who can live in a family flat, how big it can be, how many flats can<br />
be put up on one property and how they can be designed to reflect<br />
the look and feel of the surrounding area.<br />
Draft changes which we are considering for the new District Plan include:<br />
· amending the definition of family flat to make it clear it’s a minor<br />
residential unit which needs to be held in the same ownership as<br />
the main dwelling and is associated with the main dwelling.<br />
· removing the requirement that only family members can live in a<br />
family flat. As result there would be no limit on who may occupy<br />
the flat.<br />
· developing new standards which a minor residential unit needs to<br />
comply with if it’s to be allowed without a resource consent.<br />
All key draft changes and a survey for you to have a say on these<br />
changes can be found at www.selwyn.govt.nz/dprfamilyflats<br />
Consultation is open until 5pm, Monday 8 October.<br />
It’s important to note that the District Plan doesn’t determine<br />
the property rates or Development Contributions. Rates are set<br />
through the Council’s Annual Plan and Long Term Plan processes,<br />
while Development Contributions are set by the Development<br />
Contributions Policy.<br />

The award is a celebration<br />
of the past year’s sales and is<br />
bench-marked against other<br />
branches across Helloworld’s 70<br />
independently-owned branches<br />
nationwide.<br />
It was presented by<br />
Helloworld’s management<br />
and the comedy<br />

Yvette<br />
Dyer<br />
Sue Robinson are<br />
proud to have Miss<br />

to be part of the process, it’s<br />
almost as if we undertake the trip<br />
with our clients and we can’t wait<br />
to help our growing database to<br />
new and vibrant places.”<br />

ONE OF the most interesting<br />
spider families are the jumping<br />
spiders or salticidae.<br />
Thirty species have been<br />
described by arachnologists in<br />
New Zealand, but it has been<br />
estimated that as many as 150-<br />
200 species of jumping spiders<br />
occur here.<br />
Salticidae are distinguished<br />
by a square-fronted head, with<br />
four large, forwardly- pointed<br />
eyes, and four smaller eyes on<br />
top of their head, giving them<br />
the best vision of all spiders.<br />
The two inner front eyes are<br />
the largest and assist with their<br />
predatory lifestyle. As their<br />
common name suggests, they<br />
can jump distances of more<br />
than 4cm to catch their prey.<br />
One species commonly seen<br />
around the house or backyard<br />
is the golden-brown jumping<br />
spider trite auricoma.<br />
Favourite haunts of this<br />
7-8mm native species are<br />
among dead leaves of flax or<br />
cabbage tree leaves.<br />
Males have larger front legs<br />
that they use for mating displays<br />
or against rival males when they<br />

Jumping spiders see it all<br />
CREEPY-CRAWLY: The golden-brown jumping spider trite auricoma is commonly seen<br />
around the house or backyard.<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
face up and measure themselves<br />
against their opposition.<br />
Adult males also have a yellow<br />
band of hairs below their row of<br />
front eyes.<br />
Spiderlings emerge from<br />
an egg sac after the second<br />
moult and must fend for<br />
themselves.<br />

Ellesmere College<br />
Senior A Netball<br />
The Ellesmere College Senior A<br />
Netball team is currently fundraising<br />
to allow us to travel to and compete<br />
in the <strong>2018</strong> South Island Secondary<br />
Schools Tournament in Dunedin, this<br />
September.<br />
Our team currently play in the<br />
premier school netball competition<br />
in Christchurch where on a<br />
Wednesday the team competes in<br />
the Super Net Reserve grade. We<br />
ended the first round in top position<br />
and played off against Rangi Ruru<br />
for a position in SuperNet grade,<br />
narrowly missing out by just a few<br />
goals. We finished the season in this<br />
competition third which the team is<br />
very proud of. The team also play<br />
together in the Saturday competition<br />
at <strong>Selwyn</strong> Netball Centre under the<br />
name of Southbridge B in the Premier<br />
2 grade.<br />
The team have had many successes<br />
this season including winning the first<br />
round of this competition and are<br />
looking forward to the upcoming<br />
semis and finals. Playing together on<br />
a Wednesday and a Saturday has<br />
been an invaluable experience for<br />
us to have preceding to the time<br />
of the tournament and allows us to<br />
build combinations and develop as<br />
a team.<br />
Earlier this year the team put on<br />
a Ball Gown Parade Fundraiser in<br />
relation to the school formal which<br />
was a very enjoyable night and<br />
was a major financial contribution<br />
towards this tournament.<br />
The team would like to take this<br />
opportunity to express our gratitude<br />
to all of our supporters and sponsors<br />
who are allowing us to compete and<br />
for their support so far in the season.<br />

• By Jacob Page<br />
SELWYN WILL have a new<br />
premier grade netball champion<br />
for the first time in five years.<br />
Broadfield A dumped<br />
defending champions Lincoln<br />
A out of the competition with<br />
a 65-46 win in their semi-final<br />
at the Lincoln Event Centre on<br />
Saturday.<br />
Broadfield A will meet<br />
Greenpark A in the final on<br />
Saturday after they eased past<br />
clubmates Greenpark B 74-45.<br />
Broadfield A beat Lincoln A by<br />
two goals in their round-robin<br />
clash a fortnight ago and were<br />
too good again in the suddendeath<br />
atmosphere.<br />
Broadfield A coach Yvonne<br />
Crichton-Hill said she was<br />
impressed by the team’s selfbelief<br />
and their ruthless attitude<br />
against a Lincoln A team<br />
that dominated most of the<br />
competition.<br />
“I was really impressed<br />
with everyone,” she said. “I<br />
was nervous before the game,<br />
probably more nervous than the<br />
players.<br />
“We led for the entire game<br />
and I was just so pleased with<br />
how we looked after the ball for<br />
all four quarters,” she said.<br />
“Often when we get turnovers<br />
we’d get excited and give it<br />
straight back, but on Saturday we<br />
really looked after the ball.”<br />
Crichton-Hill said Maia Hill’s<br />
93 per cent shooting helped her<br />
team build on their lead during<br />

“We ended up winning a lot<br />
of turnovers through the midcourt,<br />
which meant (Lincoln<br />
A’s) talented shooters weren’t<br />
able to make it hard for us as<br />
much as they would have liked,”<br />
Crichton-Hill said.<br />
Lincoln A netball coach<br />
Vanessa Robinson described<br />
their season as a rebuilding year,<br />
with injuries and absence taking<br />
their toll.<br />
“We did the best we could<br />
given the circumstances all year,”<br />
she said. “We’ve gone through<br />
a rebuilding year and I would<br />
expect that will continue next<br />
year.”<br />
Greenpark A had little trouble<br />
brushing aside their clubmates,<br />
in spite of having closer contests<br />
with them throughout the<br />
season. Greenpark B qualified in<br />
second-place but Greenpark A<br />
led the semi-final from start to<br />
finish.<br />
Broadfield A beat Greenpark A<br />
56-48 the last time they met this<br />
season.<br />
Greenpark A coach Karen<br />
Ponsonby said the team were<br />
underdogs going into the<br />
final. “To be honest, Broadfield<br />
should win. We haven’t had a<br />
training in four years,” she said.<br />
“We do have a lot of<br />
experienced heads and we’ve<br />
scored a lot of goals this year, so<br />
I’m sure we’ll give them a good<br />
challenge.”<br />

Country ready to end Metro’s dominance<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
CANTERBURY Country will<br />
go into their Craw Shield match<br />
against Canterbury Metro on<br />
Sunday at Kaiapoi on a high<br />
after beating Southland Country<br />
36-13.<br />
After narrowly losing their<br />
opening game to Marlborough<br />
in Blenheim a fortnight ago,<br />
Canterbury Country dominated<br />
at set-piece time to ease past<br />
Southland Country in Darfield<br />
on Saturday.<br />
Canterbury Country coach<br />
Nigel Smith said while he was<br />
happy with their scrum and<br />
lineout dominance, he admitted<br />
their defensive pattern and skill<br />
execution on attack would need<br />
to be better against Metro.<br />
Canterbury Country have not<br />
beaten Metro in 10 years,<br />
“We dominated early in the<br />
scrums and won seven lineouts<br />
on their ball so that laid a good<br />
platform. Not everyone has<br />
bought into the defensive pattern<br />
just yet, but it was better than<br />
week one,” he said.<br />
“We identified the space well<br />
on attack and ran hard at the<br />
line, but our skill execution let us<br />
down. We probably left 20 points<br />
out there,”<br />
Smith praised Springston<br />
centre Shaun Harrington.<br />
“He ran the ball hard all<br />
day and was defensively very<br />

committed. We call his position<br />
‘the edge’ and he made sure<br />
there were no defensive holes<br />
there,” Smith said.<br />
“This weekend is our big game<br />
and we’ll have to execute as best<br />
we can.”<br />
Smith said, with the match<br />
acting as a Canterbury B trial,<br />
he hoped several players will put<br />
in big performances to try and<br />
impress the selectors.<br />
“I’ve been really impressed<br />
with a lot of our young talent<br />
and hopefully that shows<br />
through on Saturday.”<br />
Smith said players like<br />
Glenmark-Cheviot blindside<br />
flanker Ben Anderson and<br />
Waihora prop Jim Cummings<br />
continued to impress.<br />
“I’m not sure how Ben does it.<br />
He’ll steal your lineout ball and<br />
he’s always near the ball around<br />
the field – he’s got a big work<br />
rate,” Smith said.<br />
“Jim is a guy we picked<br />
on a whim three years ago<br />
and he’s got better every single<br />
game for us. He solidifies our<br />
scrum.”<br />
•Sunday’s match at Kaiapoi<br />
will kick off at 3pm.<br />

Rolleston triathlete steps up to world stage<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
ROLLESTON’S REECE Rush<br />
is anything but your average<br />
15-year-old.<br />
The Lincoln High School year<br />
11 student will be the youngest<br />
competitor in the under-19<br />
category of the World Triathlon<br />
grand-final on the Gold Coast<br />
next month.<br />
By his own admission, Reece<br />
GO-GETTER: Reece Rush will<br />
test himself against the best<br />
at the World Triathlon grandfinal<br />
on the Gold Coast next<br />
month. PHOTO: ROB RUSH<br />
doesn’t have much time for<br />
relaxing.<br />
When he’s not in class, he’s<br />
trying to fit in a bike ride or a<br />
morning swim.<br />
It’s all part of his three-hour-aday,<br />
six-day-a-week schedule.<br />
Reece fell in love with multisport<br />
while watching his dad,<br />
Rob, race in the Coast to Coast.<br />
“I remember three or four<br />
years ago being there at the event<br />
and just trying to spot dad at<br />
every part of the race I could,”<br />
he said.<br />
“I loved the atmosphere of the<br />
race and watching my dad and<br />
others push themselves,”<br />
Reece and his father used to<br />
train together, but Rob admits<br />
his son is too quick for him now.<br />
Reece qualified for the Gold<br />
Coast event, which runs from<br />
September 12-16, by finishing<br />
15th overall in the Pegasus<br />
classic triathlon in November.<br />
Reece said with age-group<br />
triathlon courses shorter than<br />
the open grade courses, he is<br />
focused on getting fit enough to<br />
run at a consistent tempo.<br />
“Your pacing has to be right as<br />
you can’t blow up on one leg of<br />
the race, you just have to go as<br />
hard and as fast as you can.”<br />
Reece said he was excited<br />
to test himself on the same<br />
course that was used for the<br />
Commonwealth Games in April.<br />
“It’s a flat course which<br />
probably suits my style.”<br />
Reece will swim for 750m,<br />
cycle for 20km and finish with a<br />
5km run.<br />
He will turn 16 just three days<br />
before the race and being the<br />
youngest competitor meant he<br />
wasn’t sure how he would go.<br />
“I don’t have any expectations<br />
on where I’d like to finish,” he<br />
said.<br />
“Being my first big<br />
international race, I just want<br />
to see where I’m at and that will<br />
help me work out my training<br />
going forward.”<br />
Reece said he would like to<br />
represent New Zealand at the<br />
Commonwealth Games and the<br />
Olympics in the coming years.<br />

Facelift keeps Mazda CX-5 fresh<br />
• By Ross Kiddie<br />
MAZDA NEW Zealand is well<br />
pleased with the performance of<br />
its sport utility vehicle range.<br />
So much so, that a new model<br />
has just recently joined the lineup<br />
- the CX-8. In total Mazda has<br />
four sport utility vehicles in varying<br />
sizes, but the most popular<br />
by far and consistently topping<br />
the sales charts in medium SUV<br />
market is the CX-5.<br />
The CX-5 has been around<br />
since 2012, and early last year<br />
it underwent a huge life cycle<br />
change, reinforcing its desire to<br />
buyers and not relinquishing its<br />
command in the market.<br />
That’s no surprise to me, if you<br />
take any vehicle out of the Mazda<br />
stable today you’ll find quality,<br />
and one which is pleasing in<br />
almost every respect.<br />
Mazda hasn’t rested on its<br />
laurels with CX-5, just a short<br />
time after the latest generation<br />
model was released, the SUV has<br />
had a bit of a makeover, there’s<br />
a realignment of specification,<br />
and an increase in specification<br />
for safety. There’s also an engine<br />
upgrade across all driveline variations<br />
– 2-litre petrol, 2.5-litre petrol<br />
and 2.2-litre diesel. Economy<br />
has been improved, emissions<br />
lowered further and refinement<br />
further increased.<br />
The latter is important, for the<br />
MAZDA CX-5: Major makeover for 2019.<br />
CX-5 has become a vehicle which<br />
thrills with its sophistication, it is<br />
smooth, quiet and amazingly civilised<br />
for what would be deemed<br />
a mainstream car.<br />
Mazda offers the CX-5 in six<br />
variants ranging from $39,995 for<br />
the entry-level 2-litre, and ending<br />
at $57,995 for the range-topping<br />
Limited diesel. Incidentally,<br />
Mazda’s prices include on-road<br />
costs and a three-year/100,000km<br />
free servicing programme.<br />
The evaluation car was the<br />
range-topper, albeit with the 2.5-<br />
litre petrol engine. Column space<br />
doesn’t allow comprehensive<br />
detailing of the engine’s combustion<br />
changes, but I can report<br />
the new unit is a work of art, it is<br />
strong, responsive, and delivers<br />
without vibration nor harshness.<br />
With outputs of 140kW and<br />
252Nm, the 2488cc four-potter<br />
also has power and torque which<br />
will satisfy under most conditions.<br />
The CX-5 is quick for an<br />
SUV, it will scamper to 100km/h<br />
from a standstill in around<br />
9sec and will make an overtaking<br />
manoeuvre in 5sec. Drive<br />
is channelled to all four wheels<br />
through a conventional six-speed<br />
automatic transmission.<br />
The latter has also had some<br />
technical changes so that it<br />
works more in harmony with the<br />
engine, the result is a fluid and<br />
balanced change of ratios, bearing<br />
in mind, too, that the driver<br />
can enhance engine urgency<br />
through a console-mounted sport<br />
mode.<br />
Personally, I used the standard<br />
• Price – Mazda CX-5 Ltd,<br />
$55,745<br />
• Dimensions – Length,<br />
4550mm; width, 1840mm;<br />
height, 1675mm<br />
• Configuration –<br />
Four-cylinder, fourwheel-drive,<br />
2488cc,<br />
140kW, 252Nm, six-speed<br />
automatic.<br />
• Performance –<br />
0-100km/h, 8.9sec<br />
• Fuel usage – 7.4l/100km<br />
normal mode for most of my<br />
evaluation at city speeds, it works<br />
intuitively and doesn’t load the<br />
engine greatly, further enhancing<br />
that economy equation.<br />
Of course, if you like the speed<br />
of sport mode the CX-5 takes on<br />
a lively personality that is useful<br />
on the long highway trek, overtaking<br />
for example, or if the driver<br />
feels like a bit a push through<br />
the tight and twisties.<br />
I had a Trade Me item to<br />
deliver to an address in Rangiora,<br />
so on return to my home in<br />
the city I used the roads from<br />
Loburn to Oxford, crossing the<br />
Waimakariri Gorge bridge to<br />
the Old West Coast Rd. While<br />
the vast majority of this route is<br />
straight, there are some tricky<br />
corners and it was nice to feel the<br />
CX-5’s clingy road manners.<br />
At almost 1.7m tall the CX-5<br />
could be excused for being a<br />
little unbalanced in a corner, but<br />
that’s not the case, with sensible<br />
spring and damper rates and a<br />
sophisticated fully independent<br />
suspension set-up there is<br />
controlled body movement and<br />
decisive suspension absorption.<br />
To be fair, the CX-5, and all<br />
others of its ilk, are not serious<br />
off-road vehicles. The CX-5 is a<br />
handy wagon that will take you<br />
cross-country in style, and it is<br />
useful when the seal runs out.<br />
However, the CX-5’s fourwheel-drive<br />
system is more for<br />
the benefit in low-grip situations,<br />
and on my journey I had<br />
to make a detour through a long<br />
gravel section, the test car felt<br />
well attached to the road and<br />
comfortable when pushed on the<br />
greasy surface. That being the<br />
case, I have no hesitation in saying<br />
that it is a car which will suit<br />
the ski-field access road, and I’m<br />
sure many owners use it for that<br />
purpose.<br />
On that subject, the CX-5’s<br />
popularity doesn’t stop with just<br />
new car buyers, the range also<br />
commands good coin in the preowned<br />
market, which is testament<br />
to the quality of product<br />
and the way buyers view Mazda<br />
vehicles in total.<br />

MY PRIDE AND JOY<br />
SELWYN TIMES<br />
For the love of Betty<br />
Thomas Costello has owned more than one Plymouth Duster; the<br />
first when living in Hawaii when he met his wife Leanne in 1991.<br />
His interest in the car was rekindled five years ago<br />
when Thomas purchased a 1974 Plymouth Duster.<br />
“I watched it on TradeMe for around eighteen<br />
months until a ‘buy now’ price tempted me,” explains<br />
Thomas.<br />
Thomas and Leanne love their Plymouth, reminding<br />
them of when they first met.<br />
The Plymouth is powered by a 410 Small Block Indy<br />
headed stroker motor with 727 automatic transmission<br />
and 3000 stall running through an 8¾ rear end<br />
differential, 3.23 ratio and trutrac centre and is fitted<br />
with 275/60/15 tyres.<br />
“It’s loud and aggressive,” says Thomas, who found<br />
the car’s restoration to be a great family project with his<br />
sons helping recondition and enhance the motor and<br />
rebuild the suspension<br />
The Plymouth has an imitation snakeskin vinyl<br />
rooftop and its original paintwork (complete with<br />
dents, dings and scratches), and is nicknamed ‘Brown<br />
Betty’ due to its colour, a name that has caught on with<br />
friends who call her ‘Betty’.<br />
It has a tidy interior while the dashboard has been<br />
refurbished and the automatic transmission mounted<br />
on the floor, as opposed to the original column gear<br />
change.<br />
“I’ve had a couple of manual floor mounted<br />
Plymouths, which are probably worth more, however,<br />
the Duster has sentimental value and is a fun car,”<br />
explains Thomas who says the family love cruising in<br />
it.<br />
“My eldest son is tall so prefers driving the Plymouth<br />
rather than accessing the back seat where there’s only<br />
room for two. The front bench has seatbelts for three.”<br />
The whole rear seat back can pack down flat<br />
making room for skis or surfboards. This feature was<br />
introduced in 1973, with only around 300 made with<br />
this option in 1974.<br />
Most weekends, the family head out in ‘Betty’.<br />
“There’s no point owning a special car if you don’t<br />
drive and enjoy it,” suggests Thomas, who thinks his<br />
Plymouth Duster may currently be the only one in<br />
Canterbury as it is usually one of a kind at car events,<br />
although at Caroline Bay it had the company of a<br />
Plymouth Duster from Dunedin.<br />
“People love its uniqueness and appreciate the work<br />
that’s gone into the car.”<br />
Thomas and the boys have taken the car around the<br />
circuit as well as down the ¼ mile at Ruapuna. They<br />
have also made many like-minded friends who helped<br />
and encouraged Thomas during its restoration.<br />
This kind of support is the reason Thomas and others<br />
from the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Petrolheads are assisting with another<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> Motor Fest, where the 1974 Plymouth Duster<br />
will also be on show.<br />
With the support of the <strong>Selwyn</strong> District Council,<br />
this event will be held on Sunday, 25th November,<br />
from 10am until 3pm (on the same site as last year -<br />
opposite Rolleston College). If wishing to be involved<br />
as a sponsor or exhibitor, contact selwynmotorfest@<br />

Local business expansion<br />
reflects district’s growth<br />
The population and business growth<br />
in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> district have seen many<br />
local businesses expanding and Rolleston<br />
based Holland Collision Centre is one<br />
such business with the company currently<br />
finalising Council consent for the<br />
construction of a new building just across<br />
the road from their existing site.<br />
The business will still be working out<br />
of its current site with the new building<br />
devoted to repairs that are more structural<br />
in nature. The new panel shop will be<br />
fitted out with a new 3D chassis measuring<br />
system and the latest technology in the<br />
field, allowing Holland Collision Centre to<br />
keep up with demand for heavy structural<br />
repairs, such as when a vehicle is in a<br />
serious crash or more complex repairs need<br />
to be undertaken.<br />
Business will not be interrupted during<br />
the process of construction with the new<br />
building is expected to be up and running<br />
by the end of the year.<br />
As specialists in all facets of panel repairs<br />
from the removal dents and dings to larger<br />
structural repairs and paint refinishing<br />
on vehicles of all sizes, Hollands Collision<br />
Centre is well positioned to serve the<br />
people of Rolleston as well as other parts of<br />
the <strong>Selwyn</strong> district. Whether it is a smaller<br />
car or larger vehicle such as a motorhome,<br />
caravan, horse float or any kind of work or<br />
refinishing needed for a truck, they have<br />
the expertise and equipment to do the job.<br />
As a local employer, many young people<br />
have had the opportunity to enter the<br />
industry with apprenticeships at Holland<br />
Collision Centre. Many have also had<br />
promotional opportunities, taking on<br />
higher level positions within the company.<br />
One such person is Jake Ackers, who<br />
recently won an IAG business scholarship<br />
after being one of 40 candidates.<br />
Jake has now moved from his role as<br />
panel shop foreman to become the second<br />
on-site assessor. With two on-site assessors<br />
and as approved repairers for all major<br />
insurance companies, Holland Collision<br />
Centre is now in an even better position<br />
to look after your panel needs. They can<br />
take care of the paperwork along with the<br />
repairs to have you back on the road in the<br />
quickest possible time. Loan cars are also<br />
available if needed.<br />
Holland Collision Centre would like to<br />
thank all their customers including their<br />
local business clients for their continued<br />
patronage over the years.<br />
Holland Collision Centre is open<br />
7.30am until 5pm, Mondays to Fridays<br />
and Saturday mornings from 8am until<br />
12noon. If you need their assistance you<br />

Don’t forget me<br />
In September 2010 and February 2011 Canterbury experienced two<br />
major earthquakes. People weren’t the only casualties of these<br />
disasters; hundreds of animals were affected too. Some of these<br />
frightened animals suffered homelessness, injury, and abandonment.<br />

Canterbury experienced two major<br />

Do you have a plan in place for your<br />
pet in the event of a disaster?<br />
New Zealanders have strong bonds with<br />
their pets. The more pets you have, the<br />
less likely you are to evacuate if you have<br />
insufficient resources.*<br />
When a disaster happens – earthquake,<br />
flood, fire, hurricane, there is much to<br />
think about. Firstly the safety of you and<br />
your family, however your pets are family<br />
too, so if you own one or more pets, then it<br />
is worthwhile creating a plan of action that<br />
includes them also.<br />
If you have to leave, take your pet<br />
with you.<br />

property for several days, and your pet may<br />
not survive without you. Quickly collect<br />
your pet/s, cover them with a towel or<br />
blanket or put them in a pet carrier or on a<br />
lead. Leave their toys and bedding behind if<br />
urgency and safety are paramount.<br />
If you cannot leave, keep your pets close<br />
to you. Do not let them crawl under beds,<br />
as they may be crushed (earthquake). For<br />
your safety, as your pet may be terrified,<br />
cover and wrap them with a towel or<br />
blanket. After the crisis has passed, comfort<br />
your pet with words of encouragement and<br />
lots of cuddles.<br />
Other things you can do, in case your<br />
terrified pet escapes, is to make sure it is<br />
tagged and microchipped with your up-todate<br />

Develop a taste for tangy tamarillo<br />
• By Diana Noonan<br />
TAMARILLO are a<br />
favourite cool-season fruit,<br />
maturing from March or<br />
April, and well into winter.<br />
Depending on variety and<br />
pruning regimes, they will<br />
even continue to produce<br />
into early December.<br />
Three main varieties of<br />
tamarillo are now available.<br />
The reds, with their deep<br />
purple-red skin and darkred<br />
colouring around black<br />
seeds, are especially sought<br />
after for decorating dessert<br />
dishes.<br />
Amber varieties, with<br />
a golden skin tinged with<br />
a red blush, are said to be<br />
the sweetest tamarillos,<br />
although the fruit tends<br />
to be smaller than those<br />
of other varieties. Gold<br />
tamarillos are large and<br />
fleshy and are a little sweeter<br />

Safety<br />
in the<br />
Garden<br />
As we approach the prime time for gardening, it is a<br />
timely reminder for everyone about the safe practices for<br />
gardening.<br />
Gardening is very popular here in Canterbury and as the<br />
weather improves we will find ourselves out and about<br />
in the garden more over the coming months. With this in<br />
mind, we want to ensure everyone is aware of the safe<br />
practices of gardening, most importantly how to protect<br />
yourself from contracting Legionnaires.<br />
Legionellosis (Legionnaire’s disease) is a form of<br />
pneumonia, and is caused by a bacterium called<br />
Legionella found in moist conditions in the environment.<br />
You can catch the disease by inhaling airborne droplets<br />
or particles that contain the bacteria. The illness can<br />
present itself in mild or severe cases, and can sometimes<br />
be fatal. It is more common in elderly people, particularly<br />
if they smoke, have poor immunity, or are already ill. It<br />
will usually develop in 2-10 days after exposure to the<br />
bacteria and symptoms include fever, chills, headaches<br />
and muscle pain. It will then develop into chest infectionlike<br />
symptoms. If you do present with these symptoms<br />
after gardening, inform your Doctor you have been doing<br />
so, so they can test for Legionnaires.<br />
Please head to our website www.igro.co.nz for more<br />
information about Legionnaires, or give us a call on 03<br />
3479415.<br />
than the reds.<br />
The tamarillo is a<br />
subtropical plant that is<br />
frost-tender to -2 deg C.<br />
Grown under cover, they<br />
become susceptible to<br />
sclerotinia rot.<br />
This limits the areas<br />
where the trees can be<br />
planted although gardeners<br />
in marginal areas can hedge<br />
their bets by planting close<br />
to a heat-retaining wall and<br />
We are here<br />
new<br />
product<br />
Here are some tips to reduce<br />
your chances of contracting<br />
this disease:<br />
• Read the warning labels<br />
on bags of compost and<br />
potting mixes<br />
• Wear gloves when<br />
handling soils, mulches,<br />
composts and potting<br />
mixes<br />
• Wear a dust mask if you<br />
are using these mixes<br />
indoors, or if it is windy<br />
• Dampen mixes before<br />
using them<br />
• Always open bags away<br />
from your face and in<br />
an open area (not in a<br />
greenhouse)<br />
• Wash your hands<br />
thoroughly before eating,<br />
drinking or smoking or<br />
touching your face<br />
under the eaves of a house<br />
with a sunny north-facing<br />
aspect.<br />
Tamarillo seriously<br />
resent wet feet so excellent<br />
drainage is essential.<br />
However, their shallow<br />
roots also render the trees<br />
susceptible to drought so<br />
moisture must be provided<br />
during summer.<br />
The key to knowing when<br />
to pick tamarillo is to be<br />
familiar with the variety<br />
you are growing and to pick<br />
when the entire fruit is the<br />
colour described on the<br />
growing label.<br />
If the stalk has begun to<br />
turn yellow, and is slightly<br />
loose where it meets the<br />
fruit, this is another sign of<br />
full ripeness.<br />
Picked at this stage, the<br />
fruit will keep for up to<br />
two weeks in a fridge or for<br />
a week in a bowl at room<br />
temperature. If you pick<br />
fruit when there is still a<br />
ring of green around the<br />
top (the stalk end), the fruit<br />
won’t ripen to sweetness<br />
and will remain acidic.<br />
Store tamarillo with other<br />
fruit, such as apples, to<br />
hasten ripening.<br />
•www.gardener.kiwi<br />
FLAVOUR: A well-tended tamarillo tree will produce<br />
up to 20kg of fruit.<br />

Luxury, space and garaging!<br />
From the moment you step through the front door, the<br />
clever use of light and placement of amenities ushers you<br />
forth into a myriad of possibility.<br />
Every aspect of this home has been methodically<br />
conceptualized. Set apart by quality design and premium<br />
materials, the expansive views of the garden practically<br />
transport the viewer to the countryside, despite the<br />
convenience of its well-heeled address in one of Rolleston<br />
premier neighbourhoods.<br />
Both serene and inviting, this property’s meticulous<br />
configuration and flow of space will appeal to many. Art<br />
and design enthusiasts will appreciate the tall ceilings and<br />
appointed interior wall space from which to hang their<br />
collection. Any would-be chef would be pleased with the<br />
induction cooktop, double wall ovens, butlers pantry and<br />
oversized central island. The well-equipped and highly<br />
organized will delight in this property’s vast amount of<br />
storage and all who inspect in person will recognize the high<br />
quality of furnishings and the incorporation of thoughtful<br />
technology, such as internal vacuuming, Bose entertainment<br />
system and auto louvre roof over the outdoor entertainment<br />
area. Whilst the interior exudes warmth and luxury, the<br />
garden was clearly designed with entertaining in mind.<br />
Address: 2 Riverstone Drive, Rolleston<br />
The many double-glazed windows overlook the impeccably<br />
landscaped garden oasis, treed and gated for privacy,<br />
With four car garaging and parking for boats and caravans<br />
this home surely will not last.<br />

18 Boulez Mews, Rolleston<br />
After 9 years in this simply remarkable home my vendors<br />
and their busy family have out grown this generous<br />
property and are making it available to the market.<br />
Situated in one of Rolleston’s premier neighbourhoods,<br />
this home needs to be explored to be fully appreciated.<br />
Whether it’s the expansive north facing gardens, or the<br />
exceptional outdoor entertainment area, the oversized<br />
open plan living or the chefs kitchen with butlers pantry,<br />
you most certainly will be the envy of all your friends at 18<br />
4 2 2 1 3<br />
Boulez Mews.<br />
To further enhance this family friendly homes<br />
desirability is triple car garaging, as well off street<br />

pretty sure the lot will fit.<br />
If you’ve been battling with the lack of space look no<br />
further.<br />
One thing is absolutely certain, viewing is an<br />

Building on a budget<br />
Building your own home is one of the biggest investments of a lifetime and with<br />
a few clever tips we show you how to make the most of what you can afford.<br />
For Lease<br />
11<br />
41 Shelley Street,<br />
Rolleston<br />
Get smart with your money to achieve<br />
your dream home without compromising<br />
on what’s really important.<br />
Consider buying a large plot of land with<br />
friends or family which you can split into<br />
smaller lots. Many great<br />
locations tend to cover<br />
more ground, so get the<br />
stunning harbour view<br />
you dream of by sharing<br />
the cost with someone you<br />
don’t mind having as a<br />
neighbour.<br />
Opting for lowmaintenance<br />
building<br />
materials, like vinyl siding<br />
and metal roofing saves in<br />
the long run. Although<br />
they may be more<br />
expensive to install you<br />
will save money on future<br />
repairs, replacement or<br />
repainting.<br />
Using salvaged and recycled<br />
materials and componentry<br />
from the abundance of<br />
demolition sites around the<br />
city not only adds valuable<br />
character to new builds, but<br />
can save money, too.<br />
For the safety and security<br />
of your home, don’t skimp on structural<br />
elements, doors and windows. Buy the<br />
very best you can afford and, together<br />
with your architect or builder, determine<br />
other areas you could save on to allow for<br />
a few luxuries.<br />
It’s important not to waste valuable cash<br />
on overbuilding. Look carefully at the<br />
existing properties in the area and be<br />
For Lease<br />
will you have recourse<br />
Deciding exactly<br />
what you want<br />
and then sticking with<br />
it will ensure you stay<br />
on budget, on time,<br />
and all with<br />
minimal stress.<br />
aware that building a home that is bigger<br />
and better than those of your neighbours<br />
will not necessarily equate to a fair price<br />
if and when it’s time to sell. instead, the<br />
value of your build will be determined<br />
by the lower-priced homes<br />
around it.<br />
The experience of a wellqualified<br />
contractor is an<br />
invaluable asset in any<br />
building project. Not only<br />
should anything go wrong,<br />
but their experience in<br />
the industry means they<br />
will have established<br />
relationships with suppliers<br />
and subcontractors, whom<br />
they trust to deliver the best<br />
workmanship possible.<br />
Keep a close eye on<br />
construction allowances as<br />
your home is being built<br />
to ensure you are getting<br />
what you asked for and<br />
what you paid for. if you<br />
had initially agreed on<br />
using a specific brand, for<br />
example, then don’t settle<br />
for less, unless you discuss<br />
a cost adjustment with your<br />
builder or contractor.<br />
Many a building project has snowballed<br />
out of control in the financial department<br />
due to changes being made to the design<br />
and materials once building is already<br />
underway. Deciding exactly what you<br />
want and then sticking with it will ensure<br />
you stay on budget, within your expected<br />
time frame, and all with minimal stress.<br />

Your guide to all things Real Estate<br />
in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> District<br />
Stunning home design<br />
You will be swept away by the quality,<br />
style and presentation of Faye Homes’<br />
new Faringdon show home. Built with<br />
family living in mind, all 283sqm (240sqm<br />
interior/43sqm portico) is a must see.<br />
“Everyone loves this house. It has great<br />
orientation for the sun so is extremely<br />
warm and energy efficient,” says Marshall<br />
Wang from Faye Homes.<br />
There is excellent flow making this home<br />
ideal for raising a family, especially with<br />
the natural division between living and<br />
bedroom quarters, so there is peace for<br />
those sleeping.<br />
With open plan living, there is room to<br />
move, play and interact yet double sliders<br />
mean the lounge can also be closed off for<br />
a warm, quiet, private place where a gas<br />
fire adds to the ambience. The dining and<br />
living areas balance the grand kitchen,<br />
which looks out across its generous island<br />
to a large hardwood deck. Tucked in<br />
behind is a scullery making the perfect<br />
little kitchenette complete with large<br />
appliance cupboard and sink, so the mess<br />
stays out of sight.<br />
With perfect indoor/outdoor flow<br />
this home is ideal for family living and<br />
entertaining; right down to the outdoor<br />
gas fire set within the portico.<br />
The master bedroom is a haven. Sliders<br />
lead out to a sheltered courtyard, also<br />
accessed from the living area. The ensuite<br />
has a double vanity, fully tiled walk-in<br />
shower and separate toilet; all tucked in<br />
behind a large walk-in robe which boasts<br />
lots of shelving and hanging space.<br />
Each double bedroom has a large<br />
wardrobe and study nook. These are<br />
served by the main bathroom, which is<br />
three rooms in one; a separate toilet, a<br />
showering room with freestanding bath<br />
and walk-in tiled shower, and vanity area.<br />
The result is: three people can use the<br />
facilities at one time.<br />
The show home has true double garaging<br />
and fantastic storage with two large double<br />
cupboards in the hall, as well as another<br />
in the spacious laundry, all with striking<br />
designer series panel doors. The laundry<br />
itself is pure class, with built-in cabinetry<br />
and engineered stone bench top, as is in<br />
the kitchen and scullery.<br />
Throughout, the Hampton style comes<br />
to the fore with detailed architraves,<br />
cabinetry and internal doors adding a<br />
feeling of opulence.<br />
A masterful blend of polystyrene, schist<br />
and cedar form the exterior cladding. The<br />
result is a home, which has an incredible<br />
presence on its 784sqm section.<br />
Faye Homes has had tremendous<br />
response from people viewing their<br />
latest show home; not surprising given<br />
its high-quality fit-out and attention to<br />
detail. There are many extra features like<br />
the continuation of the schist stone wall<br />
into the entryway, subtly dividing the front<br />
door from the living area. Another is the<br />
coat/footwear room, which ensures a tidy<br />
front entrance.<br />
Faye Homes’ Faringdon show home<br />
is located at 560 East Maddisons Road<br />
in Rolleston and is open 12noon-<br />
4pm, Wednesdays to Sundays or by<br />
appointment.<br />

Making the most of<br />
show home viewing<br />
Looking through show homes is a great way to get ideas for<br />
features and fittings to put into a new home. It can also be helpful<br />
for getting a spatial feel for other aspects of a house design.<br />
Before heading out for a day’s<br />
viewing, conduct an internet search.<br />
identify the locations of show home<br />
villages and the types and sizes of the<br />
various building company’s homes on<br />
display, noting down the square metre<br />
size of each home.<br />
if wanting a high end, architectural<br />
design, focus on the larger homes that<br />
have desirable design features. if at the<br />
entry or middle level of the market,<br />
earmark homes that fit this taking in<br />
other show homes for extra ideas.<br />
allow sufficient time when visiting each<br />
show home, asking for a floor plan that<br />
has room sizes before walking through.<br />
Check also the floor to ceiling height<br />
of the rooms and consider how this feels<br />
and whether you prefer a cosier feel with<br />
the standard ceiling eight of 2.4 metres or<br />
more spaciousness created with a higher<br />
stud or exposed ceiling beams.<br />
if doors and windows are taller than<br />
normal, weigh their effect in creating<br />
a more luxurious and spacious feel,<br />
against potential inconvenience for small<br />
children, cleaning and maintenance.<br />
on entering each room, take account of<br />
how much furniture is in each room and<br />
whether there is sufficient space for the<br />
furniture you will have in the room and<br />
the size needed in a walk-in robe. Look<br />
too, at storage capacity throughout the<br />
home and whether this is adequate.<br />
in the living areas, consider whether a<br />
lounge separated from the family living<br />
room or a true open plan kitchen, dining,<br />
living/lounge area is preferable, and<br />
compare internal kitchens with those that<br />
have natural light.<br />
Look too at the layout of<br />
the kitchen: whether to have<br />
an island sink or breakfast<br />
bar where a newspaper can<br />
be read, and children can<br />
sit and draw or complete<br />
homework; the positioning<br />
of appliances; and how<br />
important having a pantry is.<br />
for the little rooms, equate<br />
space and features desired<br />
with that needed, especially<br />
if the budget needs to be<br />
sharp. it might be nice to<br />
have a large walk-in shower<br />
with double shower heads<br />
but is this just fanciful and<br />
will the extra cleaning annoy you long<br />
term. a laundry in the garage is also more<br />
economical though a separate laundry<br />
may be handier.<br />
Bring the garage size into the equation<br />
also. as these vary considerably, assess<br />
the actual measurements of each garage<br />
viewed comparing this with the space<br />
needed for your motor vehicles and other<br />
items to be stored there. if a good number<br />
of toys will be housed there, it may be<br />
sensible to increase the size of this area of<br />
the home.<br />
By imagining what you need, want and<br />
will have in your new home, you will be in<br />
a better position to confidently choose a<br />
design that works for you.<br />
