Older motorists more 

likely to drink and drive 

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding 

POLICE HAVE moved to clamp 

down on a drink driving culture 

they say has existed in the 

district for decades. 

Older drivers are the main 

culprits, police say. 

Major checkpoints have been 

set up in Lincoln and Leeston in 

recent weeks. 

Said Senior Sergeant Kelly 

Larsen: “I am really concerned 

about the level of drink driving I 

am seeing and anecdotally I am 

hearing about out here,” she said. 

On Thursday, three drink 

drivers were 

stopped by 

patrols in 

Lincoln before 

7.30pm. 

Two Friday 

nights ago, a 

Kelly Larsen 

major checkpoint 

was set 

ISSUE: Police are clamping down on drink drivers in Selwyn. Patrols have been set up in Lincoln and Leeston in recent weeks. 

up in James St, Lincoln, near the 

primary school. Police vehicles 

were stationed on nearby roads 

to stop motorists trying to avoid 

the checkpoint. 

Senior Sergeant Larsen said 

yesterday the number of drivers 

caught over the limit – if any – 

were not available. 

“It is not (just) a Lincoln issue, 

it is a rural Canterbury issue,” 

she said. 

Leeston was the focus of a major 

drink driving operation on 

Friday and Saturday. No one was 

caught over the limit, she said. 


generally the drink driving problem 

was with older drivers. 

“It is a generalisation, younger 

people tend to be more responsible 

around their decision-making 

with drink driving . . . they 

have grown up with the fact that 

drink driving is unacceptable. 

“It is the older demographic 

who are continuing behaviours 

for the last 20 to 30 years.” 


the issue was district-wide. 

“I get that there are limited 

public transport options but for 

too long people living in rural 

communities have thought it was 

okay to go to the pub and drink 

and drive to get home. It is not 

okay.’’ •Turn to page 7

Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi 

get in touch 

from the editor’s desk 

THERE’S A very clear message in our page 

1 story today: The police are getting tough 

on drink driving. 

It’s not that they aren’t generally tough 

on drink driving, but in recent weeks there 

has been a step up in patrols and checkpoints. 

Lincoln and Leeston have been the recent focus. But the 

booze bus will almost certainly be frequenting other parts of 

the district, primed to catch drivers who have been frequenting 

certain establishments. 

Senior Sergeant Kelly Larsen says older drivers are a big part 

of the problem. These are the drivers who have been drinking 

and driving for decades. 

So the advice: Walk, get dropped off, or ask the publican for a 

lift in the courtesy van.

Pedestrian crossing 

could be in for lighting upgrade 


POTENTIAL improvements 

could be made at a Lincoln 

pedestrian crossing after the 

street lighting has been deemed 

not up to standard. 

Over the next three months, 

the district council is planning to 

look at the lighting at the Gerald 

St pedestrian crossing outside 

The Famous Grouse Hotel. 

The light 

doesn’t meet 

the code set 

by Standards 

New Zealand 

for lighting of 

roads and public 

spaces. 

Mark 

Chamberlain 

District council 

transportation 

asset engineer 

Mark Chamberlain said the 

original crossing was installed a 

number of years ago and was fit 

for purpose at the time. 

Long-time Lincoln resident 

Pete Thompson said it is not 

good enough and he will be 

waiting with “bated breath” for 

improvements to be made. 

He said he travels past the 

crossing at about 7.30am and it is 

difficult to see people at the crossing 

– especially in the winter. 

“I am aware of it and I cautiously 

go through it but one day 

someone is going to get killed,” 

he said. 

The Famous Grouse Hotel operations 

manager Brandon Williams 

said he would like to see a 

solar powered lighting crossing 

installed – which are popular in 

America. 

He said although the crossing 

has painted lines, it flashes on the 

ground to make vehicles aware 

people are at the crossing. 

Mr Williams said the combination 

of vehicles travelling 

faster than 50km/h and pedestrians 

often initially being hidden 

INTERNATIONAL 

Comedy 

Night 

by the cars parked outside the 

hotel makes the crossing “a little 

bit dangerous.” 

But Mr Chamberlain said there 

is a kerb extension at the crossing 

meaning pedestrians can be seen 

by approaching drivers. 

Selwyn Times reported in 2015 

there were concerns over the 

lighting at the Gerald St crossing. 

It comes as work to make the 

West Belt end of Gerald St more 

pedestrian and cycle-friendly as

FIRE AT RACEWAY 

It took just over an hour for 

Lincoln firefighters to extinguish 

a pine-needle fire at Motukarara 

Raceway on Sunday. Lincoln 

chief fire officer Jeremy 

Greenwood said they were called 

to the raceway at about 9am. 

He said the cause of the blaze is 

not confirmed but it could have 

been a campfire. Meanwhile, the 

brigade was called to extinguish 

a vehicle fire at about 7pm, Friday, 

on Lincoln Tai Tapu Rd. Mr 

Greenwood said one crew from 

Lincoln attended the fire, but the 

vehicle’s owner had extinguished 

it by the time it had arrived. 

CD VOLUNTEERS SOUGHT 

The district council is 

recruiting more Civil Defence 

volunteers to build on Selwyn’s 

ability to respond to an 

emergency. It is looking for 

volunteers for its response,

Battery 

recycling 

continues to 

be popular 

A LINCOLN Envirotown Trust 

initiative has seen more than 

1-tonne of batteries recycled 

rather than going to landfill. 

People have been depositing 

batteries into a recycling container 

at New World Lincoln in a 

bid to help the environment. 

The batteries are then delivered 

to Ecotech Services Ltd to undergo 

a recycling process. 

The trust was unsure of what 

the reaction would be from the 

public. It had envisaged there may 

be an early influx of batteries deposited 

as people cleared out what 

they had stored and then it would 

drop off. 

However, the number of batteries 

deposited has grown over time, 

with more than 100kg deposited 

some months. 

The trust has had numerous 

inquiries about the project from 

around New Zealand and some 

congratulations from overseas. 

It seems to be recognised as 

the only scheme of its kind in the 

country where people can drop 

off their household batteries at a 

convenient frequented location to 

be properly processed and not add 

to waste. 


LINCOLN’S NEWEST primary 

school is on track to open in 

January. 

Construction of Ararira 

Springs Primary – Te Puna o 

Ararira on Southfield Drive is 

progressing. 

Southbase Construction project 

manager Phil Craw said the 

interior fit-out 

for the three 

main buildings 

making 

up the school’s 

hall, administration 

and 

learning hubs 

is well under 

way. 

The school’s 

water reticulation 

system is nearly complete 

and the school car park is progressing. 

The school’s joinery is set 

to arrive this week and the 

extension of Russ Drive and the 

Jimmy Adams Tce cul-de-sac is 

tracking as per programme, Mr 

Craw said. 

The new road extensions will 

make it easier to access the 

school. 

Principal Claire Howison 

said construction is progressing 

really well which is exciting for 

the school. 

Meanwhile, the school has finished 

appointing its staff team 

with all members will come on 

board in term 4 this year. 

Ms Howison said the full 

team will begin working from 

its current base on Ellesmere 

Junction Rd to start preparing 

for the school’s opening next 

year. 

The school is to be led by Ms 

Howison, alongside deputy 

principal Donna Frame and assistant 

principal Blair Cook.

Quarry petition will 

NOW 

be taken ‘seriously’ by ECan 

• By Anan Zaki 

ENVIRONMENT Canterbury 

chairman Steve Lowndes said 

the regional council won’t 

take Weedons and Templeton 

residents’ quarry petition lightly. 

The petition was presented to 

ECan at last Thursday’s council 

meeting. 

Mr 

Lowndes said 

councillors 

understood 

the concerns 

from the 4052 

signatories. 

“We take all 

of this terribly 

Steve 

Lowndes 

seriously. 

“But we’re 

always sort of 

the meat in 

the sandwich here, so we have to 

act according to the letter of the 

law,” Mr Lowndes said. 

ECan will now wait for Fulton 

Hogan to submit their resource 

consent application. 

“We’re not in a position to really 

do anything, nor is anybody 

until that consent application is 

lodged,” Mr Lowndes said. 

Fulton Hogan are expected to 

submit an application to quarry 

the 170ha piece of land at Curraghs, 

Dawsons, Jones and Maddisons 

Rds this month. 

“We’ve heard from the community, 

we appreciate the concerns 

and in fact we have written to 

central government that they consider 

greater setback distances for 

quarries,” Mr Lowndes said. 

He does not know when the 

Government will respond to 

the request for greater setback 

distances and no time-frame was 

given by the Government. 

“But as you may know we are 

bound to act within the Resource 

Management Act,” Mr Lowndes 

said. 

The residents’ demands of 

greater setbacks were “absolutely” 

reasonable and Mr Lowndes said 

he sympathised with them. 

Templeton Residents’ Association 

chairman Garry Kilday also 

said the residents will now wait 

for Fulton Hogan’s application. 

“It’s now been passed to the 

powers that be and it will do its 

thing with it. What happens after 

you hand over a petition, I have 

no idea,” Mr Kilday said. 

NO QUARRY: 

Templeton 

Residents’ 

Association 

chairman Garry 

Kilday holds the 

petition. 

The residents aim was to get 

their voice heard, he said. 

“Basically it’s just voicing opinion, 

and you’re getting an idea of 

how much groundswell there is 

against that opinion,” Mr Kilday 

said. 

Earlier this month, he said 

support for the petition was 

“massive” and it had signatures 

from Australia and the United 

States. 

Mr Lowndes said the petition 

indicated a global concern for 

quarrying in residential areas. 

In Brief 

VEGETATION FIRE 

Firefighters were called to 

extinguish a vegetation fire on 

West Melton Rd at 12.46pm 

on Tuesday. West Melton chief 

fire officer John Doherty said 

crews from Rolleston and West 

Melton attended the call-out. He 

said it was a “controlled burn” 

until the “ashes got away.” It 

took firefighters about 45min to 

extinguish the blaze.

Stadium climb for a good cause 

• By Jono Edwards 

EVEN FOR people used to 

wildfires, a 5000-step slog 

will still turn up the internal 

thermostat. 

Dunsandel firefighter Luke 

Bain seemed to get more than 

he bargained for as he pulled 

himself up yet another flight of 

Forsyth Barr stairs last Sunday. 

His four-member team also 

participated in the Firefighter 

Sky Tower Stair Challenge in 

Auckland earlier this year. 

“This is much worse than the 

Sky Tower,” Mr Bain panted on 

an upward climb. 

More than 250 people braved 

the 5000-step course, which 

took them on three laps of the 

stadium. 

The battlers were sponsored 

to take part in the event and the 

inaugural stair challenge raised 

$52,000 for Leukaemia and 

Blood Cancer New Zealand. 

Mr Bain’s teammate, firefighter 

Matt McIntyre, said the 

two firemen powered through 

the course wearing the gear 

they would usually don to fight 

wildfires. 

Unlike the Sky Tower challenge, 

the Dunedin event was 

not competitive. 

The goal was to “just survive,” 

he said. 

The pair competed in 

Dunedin because one of their 

colleagues had blood cancer, he 

said. 

“So we decided to come down 

and raise money for a great 

cause.” 

Leukaemia and Blood Cancer 

New Zealand head of marketing 

and fundraising Leanne 

Tiscornia said many people 

found the event a “challenge,” 

but they were able to do it at

In Brief 


Older motorists 

more likely 

to drink and drive 

•From page 1 

Recently a man aged in his 50s 

or 60s inquired at the Rolleston 

Police Station about getting his 

driver licence back. 

He had been caught drink driving 

on the way home after a function. 

He didn’t think he would get 

caught. 

“It is the not getting caught that 

is the important thing, it is the 

risk he decided to put every other 

road user in and what is worse he 

said he was the most sober person 

that left. It is completely unacceptable,” 

she said. 

ROADS NAMED 

The district council has 

approved names for new roads 

in two Rolleston subdivisions. 

Thornborough Drive, Rothwell 

Drive, Tibbotts Drive, Geldard 

Drive, Blewbury Court, Challow 

Court, Kennington Drive, 

Chilton Drive and the extension 

of Ridgeway Ave were chosen as 

the new roads for the Faringdon 

East subdivision. The proposed 

name Jacob Baxter Drive was 

changed to Tobollie Drive as it 

was too similar to the existing 

road, Baxter Cres. 

Community 

matters. 

We are investing $1.5 million to 

upgrade the electricity network 

for the Springston community 

and wider area. 

Power to the people 

Your community is growing, and so we are installing new 

equipment into our Springston substation to create a more 

resilient and reliable power supply for all of our customers. 

This will reduce the chance of power outages and help us get 

the power back on more quickly if they do occur. 

Who benefits? 

Communities across Springston, Rolleston, Leeston, Lincoln 

and as far as Banks Peninsula. 

This upgrade is expected to be completed by the end of the year.

district get a boost 

A NEW event coming 

to the district aims to 

entertain and empower 

young people. 

The Selwyn Youth 

Council initiative, BOOST, 

has been designed for 

teenagers. 

Youth council chairwoman 

Paige Sullivan 

said the new event is in response 

to feedback about a 

lack of activities in Selwyn 

for teens, particularly during 

the school holidays. 

“We looked at the huge 

success of KidsFest, an 

event aimed at children 

under the age of 13 during 

the July school holidays, 

and thought we should 

be doing something like 

that for teenagers in our 

district,” she said. 

“BOOST isn’t just a way 

to fill in your holiday. It’s a 

chance to meet people, try 

something completely new 

or just relax and have fun 

– all without leaving the 

district.” 

It will run from Monday 

to October 12 and feature 

a broad range of events 

including graffiti art 

workshops, parkour training, 

3V3 basketball competitions, 

yoga sessions, 

circo arts and a hip-hop 

workshop. 

Your fresh food people. 

There will also be 

five key events on offer: 

BOOST Speak – a TED 

talk-style evening with 

three inspiring speakers; 

BOOST Spook – a horror 

walk in Foster Park; 

BOOST Market – a youth 

market in the community 

centre; BOOST Splash – a

Koru Games getting stronger 

OPTION: Prebbleton’s Ruby Jones looks for support. 

• By Jacob Page 

FIVE YEARS on from the first 

Koru Games, Selwyn Sports 

Trust chief executive Mike 

Wilson says the event keeps 

getting better. 

The trust hosted the games 

which saw more than 2500 

year 7 and 8 pupils from across 

the South Island take part 

in 13 sports over three days 

throughout the Selwyn district. 

The games finished on 

Thursday. Wilson said taking 

part was as important as 

winning. 

“For me, I still get a kick out of 

hearing from kids who have put 

their school’s sports uniform on 

for the first time. That’s what it’s 

all about,” he said. 

Wilson said with all sports 

played in a condensed time 

format, he hoped the pupils 

could find a sport they enjoyed 

and compete in a friendly 

environment. 

“The Koru Games allows 

for kids to get a taste of sports 

and the hope is that they pick 

up enough of the basics that 

they could play that sport on a 

Saturday or a Wednesday night,” 

he said. 

“We give out awards to the 

winners and place-getters, but

Celebrating our Tui 

“The Tui’s sing-songy warble is in the 

distance as I write. Often when 

I’m outside I answer back with a 

somewhat substandard whistle 

to try and make them answer. 

At the edge of the path leading 

down to the bridge is a large 

tree. Most of the year it sits in 

a rather unspectacular manner 

waiting for it’s time in the sun. 

Then, as if from nowhere, it 

bursts into flower. Great clusters 

of colour embellish it’s branches. 

And then they come. The Tui. I once 

counted twenty eight Tui from near and 

far feasting on the nectar with frenzied passion. 

The beauty of the tree and the Tui’s song was 

enchanting. 

Ever watchful on flax fronds or drunk on fresh Kowhai 

nectar, our Tui with their sheeney feathers and white 

bib are captivating; that haunting call to another bird 

travelling through the bush. As a New Zealander, it 

is the sound I most associate with 

home.” Kirsty Nixon 

Kirsty spent her early working 

career in the advertising 

industry pushing her brain to 

explore words and imagery. 

However the artistic pull was 

strong and she chose to become 

a fulltime artist in 1997. 

Although she has explored other 

subjects, she is constantly 

drawn to the New Zealand 

landscape in its various guises. 

Her imagery often brings the native 

bush to the foreground to give the feeling of stepping 

into the scene, the coastline just within reach in the 

background. 

Kirsty lives in Auckland with her husband and two 

children. 

Kirsty exhibition runs from September 29 to 24 

October at Little River Gallery.

Call for council to 

redesign water race 

• By Emily O’Connell 

THE district council will 

investigate a Springfield 

resident’s suggestions to 

re-engineer the water race 

on his property to prevent 

further flooding. 

Bruce Smith, who lives 

in Pococks Rd, made a 

deputation at the district 

council water-race subcommittee 

meeting suggesting 

two ways the water 

race could be redesigned. 

It follows an event in late 

February when heavy rain 

caused the water race to 

overflow, resulting in flooding 

of the nearby area. 

“It ran over my land 

. . . filling my garages to a 

depth of about 150mm as 

well as flooding my lower 

lawns on two sides of my 

house,” Dr Smith said. 

He said the Springfield 

Volunteer Fire Brigade was 

called and it got in touch 

with a contractor who 

dredged the water race 

downstream from Tramway 

Rd. 

Dr Smith says it’s the 

first time that “intensity” 

of flooding has occurred 

since moving into his 

NEED FOR CHANGE: 

Springfield resident 

Bruce Smith is calling

through his property to

house in 2011. 

His first design suggestion 

involves the 

installation of a sidle weir, 

connected to a ditch to 

route excess water back to 

the Kowhai River. 

The second is for the 

district council to build a 

low dam across the water 

race in a suitable area. The 

proposal would see the 

dam built with a “piped 

outlet at water race level.” 

District council 

water services asset 

manager Murray England 

said staff will investigate 

Dr Smith’s comments 

SELWYN TIMES 

and suggestions and 

report back at the next 

sub-committee meeting on 

November 12. 

He said as with any significant 

weather event, it 

supports affected residents, 

if a weather event impacts 

their properties. 

During his deputation, 

Dr Smith also asked for 

the district council to help 

pay for the repairs to his 

bridge. The bridge, which 

gives him access to the 

street from his property, is 

“rotting away.” 

Dr Smith estimates 

purchasing new wood for 

the bridge and installing it 

would cost $4000. 

“I do not accept I should 

be forced to make what 

is for me a considerable 

expenditure to maintain 

my bridge,” he said. 

However, Mr England 

said the district council will 

not contribute towards the 

maintenance of the bridge 

as it is a private asset. 

Dr Smith said the 

district council is taking 

the “legalistic way out, 

not the way of moral 

courage or of cooperative 

community.”

Our People 

Nicole Taylor 

Dreaming of pop stardom 

Rolleston’s Nicole Taylor 

has released her first 

two singles, Wondering 

and Energy. Emily 

O’Connell talks to the 

18-year-old about her 

inspiration, pursuing 

music and what she 

likes about her town 

When and how did you get 

into music? 

I asked my parents if I could 

start singing lessons when I was 

six-years-old after they took me 

down to school to see the singing 

teacher, and I’ve been singing 

ever since. 

One of my main singing 

teachers, who taught me through 

my younger years, was Linley 

Thomas. She really inspired me 

and helped me with my music. 

She then started teaching me 

piano at age 12. And I am now 

learning from Beth Keoghan, 

who is an amazing and talented 

pianist. 

Is anyone in your family 

musical? 

My family tries to claim that 

I got my musical talent from 

them but none of them are 

very musical. My parents both 

learned an instrument while 

they were in school, but both 

ending up stopping and probably 

wouldn’t be able to remember 

anything now. 

My younger sister, Aimee, did 

learn the drums and she did 

get pretty good at it. My mum 

and dad have still been very 

supportive of me through the 

whole thing. 

What’s your inspiration for 

your music? 

It’s a hard question to answer 

but I guess seeing famous artists 

perform on stage in front of 

sold out arenas and stadiums is 

my inspiration. I want nothing 

more than to be able to do that 

sometime in the future, be 

selling out my own concerts, 

performing my own songs in 

front of a packed out arena, with 

AMBITION: Nicole Taylor has released her first two singles and will be working on an album next

everyone there singing my songs. 

Can you tell me about the 

process you went through to 

create your first two singles? 

The process started with me 

having two songs with lyrics 

and chords that I knew I wanted 

to let people hear. I then met 

up with Ryan Neville at his 

studio called Voodoo Music 

Studio, and we recorded the 

piano tracks and demo vocals. 

From there, we built the rest 

of the songs, adding drums or 

base or strings, whatever we 

thought the two songs needed. 

We ended up creating two 

totally different songs in terms 

of production. Wondering is a 

more contemporary pop song, 

which I wrote at Lincoln High 

School with my friends Emma 

Kench and Jordan Trevarton, 

whereas with Energy we went 

for a more electronic pop feel. 

This gave me a really good look 

into how much goes on behind 

the scenes of music production. 

There is so much you need to 

know and learn to be a producer 

and engineer. 

How did you find it? 

I loved the recording process, 

being able to see your song 

evolve from basic lyrics and 

piano to a full-on song is 

amazing. You also had to be 

prepared so you didn’t waste 

time in the studio. 

What’s next for you with your 

music? 

I’ve just got back into the 

studio and I’m currently 

working on another song, which 

I’ll hopefully be releasing this 

year. I will also be recording 

a music video for my song 

Wondering in the next few 

months. 

I also just started teaching 

some singing lessons and I will 

start with my first two students 

next week, so if anyone is still 

looking for some lessons, I still 

have some spots open. 

Are you planning to release 

an album? 

Yes, I actually just recently 

decided that I will be releasing 

an album. It’s still in the very 

early stages but that’s something 

I’ll probably be working on next 

year. 

How often do you write 

songs? 

Not often enough. I try 

to write songs or work on 

songs whenever I’m not busy. 

Most of the time my songs 

are just made up from random 

thoughts written down on 

my phone during the day or 

at night, or I sometimes 

even record weird voice 

memos of melodies that 

just pop into my head in the 

middle of the night. When I 

have time, I’ll look at them, look 

over lyrics and turn them into 

songs. 

What are the different 

instruments you can play? 

My main instrument is vocals. 

I also play piano and very basic 

guitar. 

Is it difficult pursuing 

music? 

It’s difficult because you have 

to put so much time and effort 

into perfecting your craft, 

writing songs, recording songs, 

while still keeping time for 

university, work and a social life. 

But it’s all worth it in the long 

run when music is the thing I 

love doing.

•From page 13 

What’s your favourite thing 

about being a musician? 

I love performing. Being 

on stage and singing is what 

makes me want to keep doing it. 

Recording your owns songs and 

watching them grow is also an 

amazing experience as well. 

What do you feel when 

performing/singing? 

I don’t know. I guess you just 

get this rush of adrenaline and 

then you just start singing and 

it’s a really unexplainable feeling 

unless you sort of do it yourself. 

What’s your dream with 

music? 

My long-term dream with 

music would be to have my songs 

go like gold and platinum in New 

Zealand and even internationally. 

I would love to win some major 

awards, also do a world-wide 

tour performing to thousands of 

people who know all the words to 

my songs. My short-term dream 

at the moment would just to be to 

start with music in New Zealand, 

get my songs more known and to 

start performing them. 

Which musicians do you look 

up to and why? 

I look up to Shawn Mendes 

and Alessia Cara as they are both 

amazing song writers and artists. 

Shawn Mendes has released three 

studio albums and headlined 

MUSIC: Nicole Taylor recording at the Voodoo Music Studio in 

Phillipstown. 

three world tours and he’s only 

20-years-old. I also love and look 

up to Pink as she’s an amazing 

song writer as well as an even 

more amazing performer. 

Other than music, what 

other hobbies/activities are you 

involved in? 

At the moment, I’ve only really 

been focussing on university. I 

used to play football and netball 

and stuff in high school, but I just 

decided to sort of give that a miss 

this year so I could fully focus on 

my music. 

What do you study and 

where? 

I’m at Canterbury University, 

studying a Bachelor of Music, 

majoring in a mixture of 

performance and new music as 

I can’t make up my mind yet 

which one I want to continue 

with as a major. 

How have you found your first 

year so far? 

It’s been crazy but I’m finding 

it great. My vocal lessons are 

teaching me so much about 

my voice, my posture, my 

performing that I can already see 

a big change in only one year. The 

theory is also helping me with my 

song writing and understanding 

how things work and go together. 

How do you balance study, 

music and everything else going 

on? 

Planning. I’ve got my calendar 

out and I have to plan each day – 

what I’ve got free, what I need to 

have done, my priorities. There’s 

quite a lot to sort out but you get 

it done. 

What are you hoping to do 

after completing your study? 

I’m hoping before my three 

years of university is up that my 

music career might have taken off 

a bit more. If this doesn’t happen, 

then I will continue teaching 

singing lessons and continue to 

pursue music in some way. I hope 

to be performing regularly and 

be able to make a living off it, and 

I also want to travel. So if I could 

find a way to travel and continue 

with music, that would be great. 

How long have you lived in 

Rolleston and what do you like 

about it? 

I’ve lived in Rolleston my whole 

life, so I’ve seen it grow from a 

Falbum 

tiny town to a really huge one. 

Even though Rolleston has got 

big, I love where I live, I have 

great people that live on my street 

and it’s a nice community feel. It’s 

especially cool when we have our 

annual street party once a year. 

Do you have any part time 

jobs as well as singing lessons? 

Yes, I have a part time job. I 

work in Prebbleton at The Bridge 

Armadillos, where I’m mostly 

a waitress – sometimes I work 

behind the bar. 

How many hours do you work 

there? 

I normally work at night so 

it kind of varies but normally 

around 10 hours. 

What’s your greatest 

achievement been so far? 

I guess releasing my singles; 

that was a pretty good 

achievement. I was actually 

kind of nervous to release them 

because it’s quite a personal thing 

I guess.

Environmental

recognised 

LINCOLN HIGH School

humorous video it created 

about making beeswax wraps. 

Students Lexi Richards and 

Libby Duncan won the overall 

prize, the Kea Trophy, for the 

Lincoln Envirotown Trust’s 

Selwyn environmental video 

awards recently. 

Nineteen films were submitted 

for this year’s competition 

including five independent 

entries by adult producers. 

This marked a substantial 

increase from previous years 

and the trust hopes that it is 

indicative of people’s concerns 

about the environment. 

The trust would like to thank 

its prize sponsors Rolleston

THREE SELWYN businesses 

were recognised at the Westpac 

Champion Business Awards. 

The awards at Horncastle 

Arena on Wednesday celebrated 

the excellence, innovation 

and success of businesses and 

not-for-profit organisations in 

Canterbury. 

Mt Hutt Ski Area won the 

ACC champion workplace 

safety award, Rolleston’s Smart 

Membrane Solutions won the 

Regus champion service delivery 

– small enterprise award and 

Lincoln Agritech Ltd won the 

ChristchurchNZ champion innovation 

award. 

Taking out the ACC champion 

workplace safety award had some 

irony for Mt Hutt as its groomer 

operator shift leader, Jade 

Whirley, hobbled on stage with 

crutches to collect the it. 

However, Mt Hutt manager 

James McKenzie said the injury 

was not work-related. Mr Whirley 

was due to have surgery the 

following day for a rupture to his 

Achilles tendon. 

Mr McKenzie said the ski area 

didn’t expect to win the award. 

“That moment when it got 

announced was absolutely fantastic,” 

he said. 

Smart Membrane Solutions 

custom design and engineer 

membrane filtration components 

for the dairy industry. 

Its commercial manager Mark 

Hall said it was the first time the 

company had entered the awards 

and it was exciting to win.

Selwyn Times 

Community funding 

applications sought 

Applications for the first round of funding from the new Selwyn Community Fund close at the end 

of next month. 

The Selwyn Community Fund was established earlier this year to support events and other 

activities that help make Selwyn a great place, and contribute to community wellbeing, bringing 

communities together and attracting visitors to the district. 

The fund brings together the former Community Events Fund along with new funds, under a new 

contestable funding application process. 

Community Relations Manager Denise Kidd says one of the important ways the Council helps 

to build strong communities is by supporting groups and organisations that contribute to 

community wellbeing. 

“The Selwyn Community Fund is a valuable way for the Council to support community groups 

doing exciting, positive things in our district,” she says. “We’ve been pleased to be able to boost 

the pool of funding available, and hopefully assist more groups.” 

The fund is open to any recognised organisations whose principle functions or activities are of a 

charitable (not-for-profit) nature. 

The goals of the Selwyn Community Fund include increasing participation and engagement 

in community life, celebrating Selwyn’s uniqueness, building community capacity, promoting 

opportunities for volunteering, encouraging initiatives that build neighbourliness and community spirit. 

Applications for the Selwyn Community Fund are open year round, with funding allocated in two 

rounds each year. Round one closes on Wednesday 31 October. 

Full details on eligibility and criteria, along with an online application form, are at www.selwyn. 

govt.nz/selwyncommunityfund 

Still time to shape the future Selwyn District Plan 

There’s just over a week left for Selwyn residents to let the Council know what they think about the 

review of the current District Plan so far. 

Are we on the right track? has been the theme of the initial public consultation on a number of key draft 

changes which closes at 5pm on Monday 8 October 2018. 

Thank you to all those who have so far contacted us or visited our website at www.selwyn.govt.nz/ 

districtplanreview and sent their feedback or completed an online survey. If you want to talk to us then 

come to CultureFest on Sunday 30 September at the Lincoln Domain where our review team will be 

waiting for you. 

So what happens next? 

Feedback from this consultation will help inform the proposed rules which will be included in the 

Proposed District Plan. It’s expected the Proposed District Plan will be notified in early 2020 for formal 

public consultation and be fully in place, subject to any Environment Court appeals, in March 2022. 

CultureFest 2018 set for a visual 

extravaganza 

There’s a feast of colour, culture, music, arts and international cuisine 

on show for Selwyn residents this weekend at CultureFest 2018. 

The event, at the Lincoln Domain on Sunday 30 September, will host 

a full day of performances, activities, and fun including dancers, 

singers, performers and a kabaddi exhibition (professional Indian 

sport and a cross between rugby and tag). 

Senior Events and Recreation Advisor Dave Tippett expects the 

sporting exhibition to be a huge hit. 

“We will have a game of kabaddi take place, which is an Indian 

contact sport – some may see it as a mix between tag and rugby 

without the ball”, he says. 

The basic rules of the game is for an attacking ‘raider’ to tag out 

members of the defending team without being tackled, all while the 

raider holds their breath. 

Mr Tippett says it’s a high speed, high impact game that should be 

a great watch. Kabaddi will be played from 1.30pm for 40 minutes. 

CultureFest will also feature 21 other performances from a range of 

cultures around the world, from Aotearoa to Russia, Latin America, 

Poland and China. 

Mr Tippett says the event is a great opportunity for Selwyn residents 

to expand their understanding of the people living around us and 

the cultures they come from. 

“Selwyn is growing rapidly and so is the diversity of the people 

living in our district,” he says. “We are hugely proud of how Selwyn 

is changing and this is a great opportunity to celebrate it.” 

CultureFest will start at 11am on Sunday 30 September at the 

Lincoln Domain (or if wet, inside the Lincoln Event Centre). 

Selwyn Civil Defence volunteers 

needed 

We’re recruiting more volunteers to build on the district’s ability to 

respond to a Civil Defence emergency. 

The Emergency Management Team is hosting a recruitment evening 

at the Council offices in Rolleston on Tuesday 2 October at 7pm. 

Emergency Management Team Leader Ryan O'Rourke says the 

Council is looking to fill roles in all three of its volunteer Civil 

Defence teams including the Response Team, Welfare Team and 

Community Response Team. 

“This latest round of volunteer recruitment will build on a strong 

base of Civil Defence volunteers who live in the district,” Mr 

O’Rourke says. “We want to increase the number of volunteers 

to ensure we can manage a long duration event, such as an 

earthquake generated by the Alpine Fault.” 

Do you have the skills and time to help your community? 

The Community Response Team needs as many members as 

possible. Across Selwyn there are more than 30 community 

teams which are ready to respond in an emergency to support 

their local area. 

The Selwyn Response Team, specialised and highly trained, requires 

another seven members and the Selwyn Emergency Welfare Team 

needs another eight volunteers. The welfare team which trains 

weekly, is a new team trained to open and operate a Civil Defence 

Centre, providing support to people who have to evacuate their 

homes in an emergency. 

All volunteers will receive ongoing training and support. 

Visit www.selwyn.govt.nz/civildefence to find out more about 

volunteering for one of the Civil Defence volunteer teams, and to 

read about the kinds of events that can occur in the Selwyn district. 

Enquiries can also be emailed to the Selwyn District Council 

Emergency Management Team: civildefence@selwyn.govt.nz.

be out to repeat her 

success from a year ago 

at the national road 

cycling championships in 

Canterbury which start on 

Saturday. 

Henrietta, who lives in 

Rolleston, was the under-16 

champion last year 

and finished second in the 

points race. 

More than 600 riders 

from 99 schools will compete 

in the three-day event. 

It will start with a team 

time trial at Loburn, North 

Canterbury, on Saturday, 

then an individual road 

race on Sunday in the 

same region and a points 

race at Ruapuna Park 

Raceway on Monday. 

Henrietta warmed up by 

winning her age-group at 

the southern schools’ tour 

in Blenheim earlier this 

month. The 16-year-old 

won the overall winner’s 

yellow jersey, the sprinter’s 

green jersey and the Queen 

of the Mountains polka 

dot jersey. 

She also won the 

Christchurch schools’ 

winter road cycling series 

held from May until 

September. She was part 

of a Cycling New Zealand 

development tour as well, 

finishing fifth in the Tour 

of Canberra in April. 

“It’s been a learning 

year for me with a few 

mechanical issues, but I’ve 

still been happy with my 

results,” she said. 

Henrietta had a practice 

ride on the 35km North 

Canterbury course a 

fortnight ago and said it 

was flat, which means she 

will need to rely on her 

speed rather than her hillclimbing 

ability. 

She says she rides almost 

100km each week and prefers 

road racing because no 

two events are the same. 

“I do the track in summer 

but that’s mainly just 

for fitness.” 

Henrietta said she has 

watched some of the North 

Island tours to get an idea 

of who the best riders are 

but she backs herself to be 

a title contender.

SPORTS 

Canterbury Country finished their representative rugby 

season with a disappointing 34-3 loss to Canterbury 

Maori at Linwood’s Linfield Park, on Saturday. The team 

was hampered by losing players called-up to play for 

Canterbury B and never found their attacking rhythm while 

leaking points in defence.

Three-year absence 

no problem to shooter 

BURNHAM DAIRY farmer 

Martin Bates admits he is a “bit 

rusty” when it comes to the 

heart-pumping challenge of clay 

target shooting. 

But that didn’t stop the 

29-year-old from taking out the 

New Zealand Young Farmers 

Tasman clay target shooting 

competition a fortnight ago. 

“It was great to blow out a few 

cobwebs,” he said. 

“Coming away with a win was 

a bit of a shock to the system,” 

he said. 

“It’s probably been about three 

years since I last swung a gun at 

a few clay targets.” 

The win advances Martin 

through to the national final at 

the New Zealand Young Farmers 

competitions which will 

take place at Christchurch in 

February. 

“I reckon the changes are a 

good thing,” said Martin, who 

milks 1200 cows under contract 

at Burnham and is a member of 

Dunsandel Young Farmers. 

Previously those events were 

held alongside the FMG Young 

Farmer of the Year grand final. 

“It meant that if you were 

competing you didn’t get to see 

much of grand final. Now people 

can attend both events,” he said. 

He said the Tasman shoot was 

a great way to spend a weekend. 

ON TARGET: Burnham dairy farmer Martin Bates won 

New Zealand Young Farmers Tasman clay target shooting 

competition a fortnight ago after a three-year absence from 

the sport. 

“We had a great turnout for 

the shooting,” Bates said. 

“There was a nice mix of

LOGAN ANDERSON has 

achieved his 2018 goal of 

making the Southern Regional 

Performance Centre squad for 

the summer. 

The 17-year-old who 

lives in Rolleston and 

rows for St Thomas of 

Canterbury College 

joins old boy Nathan 

Flannery in the squad. 

The squad acts as the 

basis from which all 

New Zealand crews are 

picked from for international 

events. 

St Thomas’ rowing 

coach Pat McQuinn 

said he was not surprised 

by Anderson’s 

selection. 

“He’s a kid who just 

gives it everything,” he 

said. “It was one of his 

goals this year to make 

this squad so it’s well 

deserved.” 

Logan who is in his 

final year at school 

said he was thrilled to make the 

squad after making it his aim 

more than a year ago. 

He said he followed his mates 

to rowing trials as a year 10 pupil

SELWYN TIMES 

Your guide to Show Homes & New Sections 

in the Selwyn District 

Setting the Benchmark 

Architecturally 

designed with nice 

lines is the best 

way to describe 

Benchmark Homes’ 

new Faringdon 

showhome. The 

professionalism of 

design and finish is 

evident from first 

impression through 

to every detail within 

this home. 

Benchmark Homes have produced the 

perfect Pavilion style with all roof lines of 

the home lining up creating an impression 

that the roof might have been shaped out 

of granite. The result is a simple, stylish 

design. 

While many house designs are unable 

to efficiently exploit a north facing section 

without the need for a long hallway, the 

design of this home perfectly capitalises 

on its north east facing site so sun streams 

into this pavilion throughout the day with 

light and warmth captured from early 

morning to sundown, while the deck and 

breezeway are also sun drenched spots. 

This is augmented with features such 

as a strategically placed skylight so the 

kitchen has afternoon sun while a window 

over a bench where the electric hob is inset 

means the cook has a view of the garden 

beyond. 

Benchmark Homes have extended the 

kitchen bench space for cleaner lines, 

adding a storage cupboard instead of the 

traditional walk-in pantry. The result is a 

functional kitchen with impact. 

The kitchen, dining and living areas 

seamlessly flow. This is created by using 

scissor trusses, which give the entrance a 

raked ceiling to roofline while a window 

above the door following the raking gives a 

modern streamlined sharp look. 

Evident throughout, is the way design 

has been to the fore. The shape of the wall 

has been used to advantage for feature 

bookcases in various spots within the 

home. The delightful retreat room might 

instead be a library, study, bedroom, guest 

room or small living room. The sun filled 

master bedroom has separation, offering a 

sense of escape and sliders to the deck for 

a quiet place to relax and read. 

This is a very appealing yet practical 

213sqm house. It is ideal for a wide range 

of demographics from those starting out, 

to professionals and those in their 60s. 

With a build price ranging from $390,000 

to around $440,000 (depending on 

specification of fittings), this showhome is 

worth viewing. 

“Many couples love this house whether 

young or older,” says Richard Evans, 

Director of Benchmark Homes. 

Benchmark Homes aim to set a trend in 

house design, often leading the way with 

features that are sometimes ahead of their 

time. With this showhome they have met 

the mark.

Motoring 

Track success boosts Commodore 

• By Ross Kiddie 

THE Australian V8 Supercar 

championship is one of my 

favourite motorsport viewing 

events. 

It’s even better when Kiwi 

drivers are in the hunt for the 

title, but I guess it’s always been 

the epitome of the classic Ford 

v Holden battles. Sure, there 

are other marques within the 

series, but for Ford and Holden 

over the years it has always 

been a matter of a win on Sunday, 

sell on Monday scenario. 

Of course, it’s all changed 

now that Holden and Ford are 

not manufacturing in Australia, 

and from next year Ford 

will ditch its Falcon body shell 

in favour of Mustang. 

Holden, though, will still use 

the Commodore skin and as 

we are seeing in the series this 

year, it’s the ZB look, the new 

Commodore which is selling 

down under and sourced from 

Europe. 

The new model lands in two 

body styles, liftback and what 

GM-Holden call a Tourer, 

which is effectively a wagontype 

body shell. This evaluation 

focuses on the rangetopping 

model in the range, a 

Calais-specced Tourer. 

The new Commodore lands 

here with three engine variations, 

there’s a 2-litre petrol 

and 2-litre diesel, both driving 

through the front wheels. In 

• By Ross Kiddie 

A NEW seven-seat sport 

utility vehicle will launch here 

in October. 

Named Acadia, it will be the 

first time Holden New Zealand 

has offered a GMC-based 

product in its line-up. 

While Acadia is unashamedly 

American in its design, its 

performance and driving persona 

has that signature Holden 

feel thanks to local engineering 

input.

traditional Commodore form 

there’s also a 3.6-litre V6, its 

driveline flows power to all 

four wheels. The engine has 

a smooth operating manner 

and is paired to a nine-speed 

automatic transmission, I 

would rate the combination as 

one of the nicest I have had the 

good fortune to drive in recent 

times. 

I particularly like the engine, 

and although there is as little 

bit of gruff howl at high revolutions 

it is honest all through 

the rev band and never falters, 

and with the endless supply of 

gearing there is never a point 

where the engine doesn’t seem 

to work at its optimum point. 

Holden claims 235kWand 

381Nm from the big quad 

camshaft unit, they are strong 

Using lessons learned from 

recent Commodore and Colorado 

programmes, Holden 

engineers have focused on delivering 

the direct steering and 

composed ride that resonates 

with Kiwis. 

Acadia is driven by a powerful 

V6 engine and nine-speed 

automatic transmission. It 

drives through the front 

wheels, although an all-wheel 

drive version will be available.

details will be released closer 

to launch. 

outputs and ones which give 

the big Tourer a healthy turn 

of speed – a 7.5sec standstill to 

100km/h time can be expected. 

All of these figures add 

up to reasonably impressive 

ability and combine well with 

the driveline which will cater 

for the role Kiwis have come 

to expect from the Commodore 

nameplate. It also gets a 

2100kg tow rating, in Tourer 

form the rear wagon area is 

cavernous, there’s a 560-litre 

load capacity extending to 

1665-litre with the rear seats 

folded. 

In Calais form the Commodore 

is a true luxury car, 

the front seats are amazing 

and there’s adjustable bolster 

support along with a back 

massager.

and if you take into account its 

European build, it’s a car which 

not only competes with the 

mainstream vehicles, it is also 

the large car which takes on 

the big names from Germany. 

If you look at it in that context 

it is a bargain and a car you 

would find hard to be disappointed 

with. 

I’m itching to get into 

the four-cylinder 

Commodore models. In the 

interim, I’ll be glued to the TV 

every weekend that amazing 

championship series is being 

held, just to see how the Commodore 

– and the Kiwis – take 

to the racing.

MY PRIDE AND JOY 

SELWYN TIMES 

A jewel of a truck 

Over the years, a few vintage cars have 

spent time with Roy Grainger, yet the jewel 

in the crown has been his 1939 Diamond 

T truck, purchased from the founder of 

Invercargill’s Bill Richardson Transport 

World in the 1980s. 

“Bill had purchased a collection of 

vehicles including the Diamond T which 

he put up for sale,” said Roy who says it was 

in reasonable condition and mostly intact 

though not going. 

“Someone once told me that after buying 

your first vintage car everyone knows 

you’re mad so no one was surprised when I 

bought the Diamond T.” 

It took Roy nine years and many hours to 

bring the Diamond T back to the showylooking 

truck it is today. He says it is not 

really a workhorse or your average truck 

and more like a Cadillac with lots of 

chrome, full hubcaps, and big over-riders 

on the front bumpers. 

The truck’s original colour was a very 

light shade of blue then when the army 

commandeered it during the war, it was 

painted brown. When returned to its 

owners, they painted it green and Roy has 

since painted it dark blue. 

It has a six-cylinder side-valve Hercules 

motor, a Warner four-speed gearbox and 

a Clark differential making it a heavy flat 

deck truck with 20in dual wheels at the rear 

and about a 3m deck. 

Its rating was 2½-tonne, however, the 

agents Scott Brothers were purported to 

have told its first owners (builders Rowley 

and Sons) that any part would be replaced 

as long as no more than 4-tonne were 

carried on the back. It gave good service 

including as a farm truck in West Melton 

after the war. 

Roy says the Diamond T runs well though 

it is not fast, cruising at about 70km/h and 

doing around 12 miles to the gallon. 

Produced by the Chicago based Diamond 

T Motor Car Company (founded by C A 

Tilt), the Diamond T logo incorporated 

the founder’s initial and a diamond to 

indicate quality. The company initially 

made cars then within two years, moved to 

manufacturing trucks which they produced 

for over 50 years. 

Roy’s Diamond T has featured in and 

on the cover of a book Vintage Trucks and 

Commercials, written by Steve Reid. 

Roy occasionally takes his Diamond T 

for a drive and exhibits it at car and truck 

shows. It will be on display at the upcoming 

Selwyn Motor Fest, an event supported by 

the Selwyn District Council, to be held on 

Sunday, November 25, from 10am until 

3pm (on the same site as last year - opposite 

Rolleston College). If you would like to 

be a sponsor or exhibit a vehicle, contact 

selwynmotorfest@gmail.com.

MOTORCARE PROFESSIONALS 

Aiming for safe motoring 

Motor vehicles offer more 

timely travel yet too often the news 

features serious road accidents 

and deaths. 

From a peak in road fatalities of 

843 in 1973, the number steadily 

declined to a low of 253 in 2013 

before climbing again, with a 

higher figure registered each year 

since then. In 2017, the national 

road toll was 378, 51 more deaths 

than in 2016. This is partly due 

to an increase in the number of 

vehicles on the road, rising from 

1789.4 to 3,656.3 between 1980 

and 2016. 

The statistics show that road 

related deaths and injuries per 

100,000 people have in fact 

decreased, from 18.9 to 7 in that 

time. Regardless, the road toll is 

still too high and injuries from 

road accidents considerable at 

12,456 people in 2016, an increase 

of 1,237 from 2014. 

Recovery for those injured can 

be drawn out with long-term 

health issues, a personal cost 

for those concerned and their 

families. It also diverts money 

away from other areas of health 

care. 

Discussion around ways to 

reduce the road toll is a hot 

topic. The answer goes back to 

those using the roads. Roads are 

continually being improved and 

vehicles have more safety features 

like air bags but still accidents 

occur due to deliberate and 

unintentional driver error. 

The countryside has its fair share 

of narrow and winding roads as 

well as blind intersections. These 

are not likely to be a problem 

where a driver keeps to their side 

of the road, slows down and stops 

when required to do so, drives at 

a suitable speed and only overtake 

when there is sufficiently clear 

Ensure the road is clear 

before overtaking. 

road ahead. 

Poor weather conditions also 

bring challenges. Again it is a 

matter of driving to the conditions 

and looking for potential hazards 

so appropriate action can be taken 

to prevent an accident. There 

is also less driver control and 

reaction time when cruise control 

is switched on in wet or windy 

conditions. This function can be a 

hazard when a vehicle encounters 

water or ice as the set speed is 

maintained. 

With speeds greater on the 

open road, it takes longer to stop 

a vehicle. If travelling too close or 

distracted like when using a cell 

phone or if texting, then a driver 

may not have time to stop or take 

evasive action. 

It is usually the driver and 

not the vehicle that causes an 

accident. Adopting a responsible 

approach to driving increases 

all our chances of arriving home 

safely. Having respect for others 

on the road, driving according to 

the conditions, tucking the cell 

phone away until off the road, not 

treating the road like a racetrack, 

and being patient when driving, 

all help to keep our roads safer. 

Drive to the 

conditions. 

Travel at a safe 

stopping distance.

SELWYN TIMES 

PETS & PAWS 

Are you ready to own a pet? 

Taking care of an animal is a big responsibility and a lifelong 

commitment. Unfortunately, many new pet owners are unprepared 

for the responsibility that comes with owning a companion animal. 

As a result, animal centres receive and care for thousands of 

unwanted, sick, injured and abused pets every year. 

To help decrease these numbers, SPCAs and animal rescue 

groups throughout New Zealand strongly urge all potential pet 

owners to carefully consider their circumstances and capabilities 

before committing to pet ownership. 

Questions, which may help you decide whether you are ready to 

bring a pet into your life, include: 

• Do you own your own home? If you are renting, you will need 

permission to house a pet, or you may have to move to a rental 

Wagging Tails

that does allow pets. 

• Is your home environment suitable for 

animals? You’ll need a safe space for your 

pet that does not limit its ability to express 

normal behaviour. 

• Can you afford to own a pet? Desexing, 

housing, feeding and vet bills can be costly; 

you’ll need to factor this into your pet 

ownership. 

• Do you have the time and energy for 

a pet? All domestic animals thrive on 

the love and attention of their owners. 

Animals are sentient beings and enjoy the 

companionship of their humans. 

• Are you prepared to be a ‘forever’ pet 

owner? Cats and dogs can live up to 15-20 

years. 

Having a pet is more than just owning an 

animal; pets become vital and important 

members of the family, offering a lifetime 

of unconditional love, companionship, and 

loyalty. Pets are for life! 

If you do decide to go ahead with pet 

ownership, there are many animal rescue 

centres and groups in Canterbury with 

animals available for adoption. Each animal 

has a story to tell, and all deserve a second 

chance at finding a new ‘forever’ home.

Gardening 

Plant your greens in early spring 


• By Rachel Vogan 

AS THE days get longer and the 

soil slowly begins to warm up 

and dry out, the time is right 

to set about growing our own 

greens to feed the troops. 

PEAS 

Peas are a super quick and 

easy crop to grow, and have the 

advantage of being remarkably 

hardy to cold temperatures. They 

prefer a fertile soil in full sun, and 

would benefit from a supporting 

frame or series of stakes to keep 

the crop off the ground. Sow seed 

directly in the garden where you 

wish it to grow, allowing 10-15cm 

between each plant. I put two 

seeds in each hole. Cover the area 

with mesh or netting, as birds just 

love to peck at fresh pea shoots 

as they emerge through the soil. 

Once the plants reach 15-20cm, 

the leaves don’t seem to have as 

much appeal, so the nets can be 

removed. They are a great crop 

for tubs and planters, and dwarf 

varieties are wonderful in hanging 

baskets or window boxes. Plant 

plenty, as once they come ready, 

you never seem to have enough. 

CELERY 

Just think Bloody Marys, 

salads and slaws when it comes 

to this hardy vegetable. I suggest 

starting with seedlings, as 

seed often takes six to eight 

weeks to germinate and reach a 

transplantable size. Two punnets 

will be enough for a family or 

large flat. Celery is a long-term 

crop, taking between four to six 

months to mature. Enrich the 

soil with some good manure 

or rich compost and space the 

plants two hand-widths apart. It’s 

a good container crop too, and 

two or three plants can easily fit 

in a 10-litre bucket. A sneaky 

tip is to harvest the outer stalks 

individually by carefully cutting 

them off at the base, leaving the 

rest of the plant to grow happily. 

ASPARAGUS 

Home-grown is just the bee’s 

knees, and you have two options 

when it comes to growing; 

either planting out dormant 

crowns, which are still in the 

shops now, or exploring the 

option of sowing seed. If you 

want to grow your own spears, 

you must allocate a permanent 

spot in the garden as asparagus 

is a crop that lives in the ground 

all year round and, if cared 

for well, will crop for decades. 

PATIENCE: 

Asparagus will 

take two to 

three years before 

it can be 

harvested. Find 

a space in the 

garden where 

it can grown 

permanently. 

Remember to pack your patience 

when establishing a patch, as 

it can take two to three years 

before you will be harvesting 

anything, and it can’t be cropped 

when it’s young as the crown 

needs to bulk up underground 

before picking can begin. 

SPRING ONIONS 

It’s all in the name with this 

crop, but you actually can plant 

them all year round. Either sow 

from seed now, transplanting 

once they are big enough, or 

cheat like I do and buy them in 

punnets. I don’t bother separating 

them out into singles; instead I 

just tease each plug in half and 

plant that. This means that when 

it comes to harvesting, I have 

a whole bunch to pick at once, 

which suits me as it is how I use 

them in the kitchen. Look out for 

the red, bunching onions; these 

have a bit more zing. Did you 

know that the longer you leave 

spring onions in the ground, the 

stronger the white part tastes? 

ROCKET 

Rocket, or arugula, is one of 

the fastest-growing and tastiest 

salad greens around. It is the 

epitome of a low-maintenance 

crop; you can scatter seed directly 

onto the ground and walk 

away, and will be greeted with 

seedlings within a few weeks, and 

harvestable leaves only a fortnight 

to a month later. Plants are 

widely available all year round. 

If the soil dries out in summer, 

the plant will bolt and go to 

seed, so perk up old, tired soil 

with sheep manure or compost 

before planting in order to avoid 

this. It’s an ideal resident for the 

patio and window boxes near the 

kitchen, and if you keep picking 

it without allowing it to flower, it 

will crop for up to six months or 

more, as long as the soil remains 

fertile and regularly watered.

on your head you can spoil yourself on our 

Expo Lounges and leave the Expo feeling a 

little more relaxed and pampered.

Pampering 

sessions at 

the Expo 

Visit the Vivo Hair Lounge for all things 

hair and with special expo only prices on a 

range of hair and beauty products including 

discounted GHDs you could walk away with 

a few bargains as well. Sit down and have 

your hair curled by the Vivo team for free and make sure you have your photo 

taken in front of the Vivo photo wall so you can enter to win a fabulous makeover 

package. 

Mama Lash will be at the Expo for the first time. Stop by their large Pamper 

Lounge where the team will be offering Expo visitors lash extensions and brow 

treatments onsite. If you have always wanted long, thick and full eyelashes then 

chat to the team onsite and discover the easy way to achieve fabulous looking 

eyes that will make you stand out in a crowd. You can either have your eyebrow

stunning look is achieved. 

After a successful show last year, Sparklewhite Teeth will once more be offering 

teeth whitening treatments at the show. This area was buzzing last year with 

visitors lining up to take advantage of the amazing expo only prices. Sparklewhite 

Teeth have developed a new technology for teeth whitening that works so 

effectively you can lighten your teeth by 2-10 shades in just one 60 minute 

session. Create a positive attitude for yourself and improve your appearance while 

achieving a more youthful look with your new radiant smile. 

Sparklewhite will also have the fascinating Aduro’s LED mask onsite for visitors 

to try out at the show. A re-invention of the traditional facial mask brought up-todate 

through the use of LED light technology Aduro’s patented design follows the 

contours of the face and covers the entire facial area in therapeutic light – offering 

a full facial rejuvenating experience, for range of skin imperfections including acne 

and signs of aging. 

Before you leave the Expo take your tired feet over to the Southern Reflexology 

Group Lounge and treat yourself to a relaxing reflexology treatment. 

The ancient Chinese practice of reflexology, a manual therapy focusing on the 

feet, has recently enjoyed a surge in popularity as a modern holistic therapy to 

relieve pain and stress. Reflexologists believe that different areas on your feet and 

hands correspond to other parts of your body, and massaging them stimulates 

your parasympathetic nervous system to heal itself. Reflexology can help to create 

a healthy harmonious state within the body and triggers the body’s natural powers 

of self-healing. 

Find out more from the Southern Reflexology Group onsite at the Women’s 

Lifestyle Expo.

THE ULTIMATE 

WEEKEND FOR 

WOMEN IS 

BACK! 

The Expo is a perfect place to meet for a girl’s day out but it’s also a great 

place to escape and have some well-deserved “me time” if you would 

rather browse the sites by yourself at your own pace. With so much going 

on and with Door sales only $10 there is every reason to visit and none to 

stay at home! 

Renee Murray from NZME Events says “Our aim is to have as wide of a 

range of companies involved with the Expo as possible. Women are all 

different and their individual interests are so diverse. One woman may 

be interested in gourmet food but the woman beside her may be more 

interested in organic skincare or booking a V8 Supercar drive. We have 

artisan crafters like jeweller Debra Fallowfield exhibiting alongside national 

brands like Vivo Hair and Suzuki. It’s great on the weekend to see all the 

various women visit the show, from teenagers to business women, mothers 

to grandmothers and friends simply enjoying each other’s company”. 

CleanPaleo launching new product at the Expo 

CleanPaleo is a NZ company dedicated to creating great tasting, clean, 

whole food products that let your body know that ‘You Mean Business’ when 

it comes to looking after yourself. The Expo will give visitors a chance to 

buy their brand new Better Balls product, a revolution in healthy snacking 

because they genuinely are a healthy snacking option – less than 20% sugar 

and they taste amazing! Make sure you stop by the CleanPaleo site in the 

Expo Taste Zone where you can also chat with reality TV couple and health 

gurus Art Green and Matilda Rice. 

Since appearing on The Bachelor NZ, Art and Matilda have both become 

proponents of healthier eating with Art extending his interest in healthier 

living into a business venture, part-owning Riot Foods, which consists of 

sub-brands Clean Paleo and Poppy and Olive which you can both discover 

at the Women’s Lifestyle Expo. 

The popular Craft Zone will include artisan crafters from all over New 

Zealand with gorgeous original products often not found in shops including 

kitchen herb planters, soaps & beauty products, original art, home decor, 

handmade jewellery, beeswax wraps and more. 

For a ‘tasteful’ experience like no other, head to the ‘Taste Zone’ where you 

can experience, try, and buy a range of fantastic products, so why not treat 

yourself? From wine to paleo food, meat rubs & spices and even french 

terrines, parfaits and pates you can tantalise your taste buds with a tasty 

treat from the Expo Taste Zone.
