Fulton<br />
Hogan<br />
to meet<br />
residents<br />
over<br />
quarry<br />
• By Anan Zaki<br />
FULTON HOGAN officials<br />
will front up in Templeton<br />
for the first time next week to<br />
discuss their quarry proposal.<br />
Since first announcing<br />
the 170ha quarry plan for<br />
Templeton and Weedons last<br />
year, the company has not held<br />
public meetings in Templeton.<br />
Fulton Hogan is planning a<br />
series of information evenings<br />
from November 6-8 in a<br />
marquee next to the Templeton<br />
Community Centre.<br />
There will also be a session<br />
at the drop-in centre at the<br />
proposed quarry site, 220 Jones<br />
Rd, on Monday.<br />
Residents can hear the latest<br />
information relating to the<br />
quarry proposal and discuss<br />
concerns with Fulton Hogan’s<br />
technical experts.<br />
Templeton Residents’<br />
Association chairman Garry<br />
Kilday welcomed the move but<br />
called for more. “I would’ve<br />
preferred the way we wanted<br />
it, if the whole community is<br />
engaged.” he said.<br />

LINCOLN’S BJORN Horrack will get a<br />
taste of boxing’s big time when he fights on<br />
the Joseph Parker-Alexander Flores undercard<br />
in December.<br />
The 29-year-old, who we feature in<br />
today’s paper, will fight another Cantabrian<br />
Quintin Poole, who is 30kg heavier than him, in a corporate<br />
bout.<br />
This will be a big night for Horrack at Horncastle Arena<br />
where there will be all of the trappings for a name as big a<br />
Parker’s in world boxing.<br />
A world title hopeful Parker still is, as he attempts to wind his<br />
way back into contention after losing to Anthony Joshua and<br />
Dillian Whyte.<br />
Poole will be no Joshua or Whyte, but it’ll still seem like a<br />
major title fight in front of what will be a big crowd.<br />

Concern over six<br />
before six at Garden Party<br />
But overall<br />
police happy<br />
with behaviour<br />
• By Karen Pasco<br />
IF THE police were to write a<br />
report card about the student<br />
Garden Party at Lincoln<br />
University it would say in<br />
the comments “still room for<br />
improvement”.<br />
Senior Sergeant Kelly Larsen<br />
said on the whole attendees at<br />
the party had<br />
behaved well.<br />
But the<br />
students’ six<br />

6am tradition,<br />
still concerned<br />
police, she said.<br />
Kelly Larsen<br />
Loud parties<br />
could be heard<br />
before 6am in residential<br />
Lincoln, and police shadowed<br />
students as they walked from<br />
party to party.<br />
Said Senior Sergeant Kelly<br />
Larsen: “We’re happy with the<br />

“There’s still room for<br />
improvement.”<br />
Lincoln University Students’<br />
Association manager Fiona Kay<br />
said regardless of their level of<br />
intoxication, all ticket-holders<br />
were admitted into the event as<br />
the association had a “duty of<br />
care” to attendees.<br />
The garden party was<br />
organised by the association.<br />
“We provide a safe<br />
environment for them to sober<br />
up if they are intoxicated (when<br />
they arrive). Upon entry they<br />
will go into a medical tent staffed<br />
by ambulance service Horizons,”<br />
she said.<br />
Once in this area, the ticketholder<br />
is not allowed back into<br />
the event. The staff will then<br />
organise safe transport home for<br />
the individual via a friend<br />
or family member once they<br />
have deemed it safe for them to<br />
do so.<br />
Only five people out of 2700<br />
attendees were admitted into the<br />
medical tent throughout the day<br />
and one non-Lincoln student<br />
was arrested.<br />

New fire station’s<br />
grand opening<br />
in West Melton<br />
The West Melton Fire Station was officially opened<br />
on Friday. It has replaced the original station, which<br />
was built about 53 years ago and demolished in May.<br />
The West Melton Volunteer Rural Fire Force took<br />
over the building in July after the final sign off from<br />
the district council. Chief fire officer John Doherty said<br />
the opening was “very good” and “well-attended.”<br />

and it has a responsibility to get<br />
the quarry “right”.<br />

Springfield water races examined<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
SPRINGFIELD’S water<br />
race infrastructure has been<br />
inspected after concerns over the<br />
flooding and cleaning of culverts<br />
in the area.<br />
The district council carried out<br />
an examination of water races,<br />
culverts and tip out points this<br />
month after the issue was raised<br />
at a Springfield Township<br />
Committee meeting.<br />
The main water race at Bishops<br />
Creek was inspected within the<br />

The work will be completed<br />

flooding.<br />
It follows an event in February<br />
when heavy rain caused the<br />
water race to overflow, resulting<br />
in flooding of the nearby area.<br />
The district council is investigating<br />
Dr Smith’s suggestions<br />
and will report back at the next<br />
water race sub-committee.<br />
Committee chairman Graeme<br />
Dawson said he was pleased the<br />
district council was looking at<br />
the issue.<br />
“They have got a responsibility<br />
and they are obviously taking it<br />
reasonably seriously so that is all<br />
we need,” he said.<br />
Mr Dawson said the concerns<br />
come after the heavy rain across<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> in August last year which<br />
led to blockages of the water<br />
races causing minor flooding.<br />
But he said in the last 20 years,<br />
the district council has really got<br />
on top of resolving this problem.<br />

Why is <strong>Selwyn</strong> growing faster than<br />
Figures released last week<br />
by Statistics NZ show<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> is the second<br />
fastest growing district<br />
in New Zealand. So what<br />
makes it a desirable place<br />
to live? Emily O’Connell<br />
reports<br />
AFFORDABLE land, a familyfriendly<br />
environment, excellent<br />
infrastructure, great road and<br />
rail links for business and<br />
stunning natural landscapes.<br />
That’s what Mayor Sam<br />
Broughton<br />
believes <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
has to offer.<br />
He’s not<br />
surprised to see<br />
its population<br />
has kept growing,<br />
with the latest<br />
Sam figures estimating<br />
Broughton more than 62,000<br />
people reside in<br />
the district – up<br />
4.8 per cent from<br />
last year.<br />
Population<br />
estimates from<br />
Statistics NZ<br />
have confirmed<br />
Ben Harris <strong>Selwyn</strong> as the<br />
third-largest<br />
territorial authority in the South<br />
Island.<br />
Bayleys Canterbury’s Ben<br />
Harris believes there is a<br />
“multitude of reasons” people<br />
are moving out to <strong>Selwyn</strong> and<br />
Lincoln in particular.<br />
He’s the lead agent for<br />
Verdeco Park – a new residential<br />
subdivision in Lincoln.<br />
Mr Harris said Lincoln has<br />
easy access to Christchurch,<br />
multiple amenities, good<br />
schooling, a wide array of cafes,<br />
restaurants and bars and is a<br />
“good healthy environment to<br />
bring up families.”<br />
So what is being done to cater<br />
for the growing population?<br />
District council community<br />
relations manager Denise<br />
Kidd said it understands the<br />
population has changed and it<br />
has worked to provide key assets<br />
to the community.<br />
“Like the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Aquatic<br />
Centre, community and<br />
event centres, libraries, which<br />
also host a range of events,<br />
sporting grounds and dozens<br />
of playgrounds around <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
featuring a range of interactive<br />
play areas,” she said.<br />
Ms Kidd said it also works to<br />
provide programmes, such as<br />
CONSTRUCT:<br />
New<br />
subdivisions<br />
across the<br />
district like<br />
this one in<br />
Rolleston will<br />
help cater<br />
for the area’s<br />
growing<br />
population.<br />
KidsFest, Boost and CultureFest,<br />
to engage the community and<br />
provide entertainment for a wide<br />
range of local residents.<br />
Mr Broughton said there has<br />
been a significant number of<br />
international arrivals in <strong>Selwyn</strong>,<br />
with more than 300 becoming<br />
citizens over the last year.<br />
In the year to June, the district<br />
council issued 2458 building<br />
consents, only slightly lower<br />
than the previous year.<br />
Mr Harris said the median<br />
house price in <strong>Selwyn</strong> last<br />
month was $550,000, up from<br />
September last year when it was<br />
$535,000. “<strong>Selwyn</strong>’s average<br />
house price . . . is the highest in<br />
the wider Canterbury region<br />
with Waimakariri‘s average<br />
house price being $453,000,<br />
closely followed by Christchurch<br />
city on $452,500 for the<br />
month of September <strong>2018</strong>,” he<br />
said.<br />
Within the district, Mr Harris<br />
said the median house price<br />
tends to be higher in Lincoln,<br />
followed by Rolleston and then<br />
Darfield.<br />
“The median house increase,<br />
particularly in Lincoln and<br />
Rolleston, is being driven by<br />
new home builds in the area that<br />
attract obviously a higher price,”<br />
he said.<br />
Mr Harris said there were 71<br />
properties sold in <strong>Selwyn</strong> last<br />
month, up from 69 in September<br />
last year. With just under 80,000<br />
people expected to live in <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
by 2028, he says the population<br />
will need somewhere to live,<br />
“hence the growing number of<br />
residential developments.”<br />
The recently released updated<br />
draft Greater Christchurch<br />
Settlement Pattern will go out for<br />
public consultation tomorrow<br />
until November 30 after being<br />
approved by the Greater<br />
Christchurch Partnership<br />
Committee.<br />

Wednesday <strong>October</strong> <strong>31</strong> <strong>2018</strong> 7<br />
other districts?<br />
The report predicts the<br />
population of <strong>Selwyn</strong>,<br />
Waimakariri and<br />
Christchurch will increase<br />
by 150,000 in the next 30<br />
years.<br />
The update includes a<br />
focus on how urban areas<br />
accommodate growth<br />
and how infrastructure<br />
planning supports<br />
development.<br />
It said 20 per cent of<br />
greater Christchurch’s<br />
housing growth through to<br />
2048 should be supported<br />
in <strong>Selwyn</strong>, with the<br />
remaining 65 per cent in<br />
Christchurch and 15 per<br />
cent in Waimakariri.<br />
It comes after the 2007<br />
urban development<br />
strategy forecasted 29 per<br />
cent of growth would be<br />
split between <strong>Selwyn</strong> and<br />
Waimakariri.<br />
However, that was before<br />
the two districts flourished<br />
as residents moved out of<br />
the city after the February<br />
22, 2011, earthquake.<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong>’s economy is on<br />
a strong growth curve. The<br />
district’s gross domestic<br />
product for the year to<br />
June increased by 5.3 per<br />
cent – nearly double the<br />
GOLD<br />

MON - FRI<br />
Lynn Townsend<br />
New Zealand average of 2.7<br />
per cent, and well ahead of<br />
the Canterbury regional<br />
figure of 2.5 per cent.<br />
But Lincoln Hammer<br />
Hardware owner Lynn<br />
Townsend said he’s “not<br />
so sure <strong>Selwyn</strong> businesses<br />
are reaping or getting the<br />
benefit of that growth.”<br />
“It would seem to me<br />
they’re [residents] still<br />
buying in the city or<br />
somewhere. I don’t think<br />
the growth in businesses in<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> necessarily reflects<br />
the growth in housing and<br />
population,” he said.<br />
Looking to the future,<br />
Mr Townsend said<br />
it’s “possible” <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
businesses will see more<br />
of the benefits as more<br />
businesses move to the<br />
district.<br />
The report revealed<br />
there are questions around<br />
whether there is enough<br />
development capacity in<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> and Waimakariri<br />
to meet the demand in the<br />
long term.<br />
The projected shortfalls<br />
are 7575 developments<br />
in <strong>Selwyn</strong> and 9170 in<br />
Waimakariri.<br />
“Our plan seeks to<br />
ensure that sufficient<br />
housing capacity is<br />
provided in both <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
and Waimakariri to enable<br />
growth in district towns,”<br />
the report said.<br />
It proposed new<br />
greenfield housing areas<br />
should be released in<br />
places like Rolleston to<br />
help address the shortfalls.<br />
•On-site viewings<br />
will be held today and<br />

A group of savvy business<br />
women have set up a<br />
group to provide support,<br />
friendship and give back<br />
to the Sewlyn community.<br />
Karen Pasco talks to the<br />
founding members about<br />
how it all started<br />
AN ACCOUNTANT, real estate<br />
agent and photographer walk<br />
into a room. It sounds like the<br />
start of a bad joke, but this is<br />
actually a meeting of the <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
Women in Business – a cluster of<br />
business owners who are helping<br />
each other through the ups and<br />
downs of owning their own<br />
company.<br />
The group was set up this year<br />
by Nyki McQueen and Kathryn<br />
Boyd, an insurance broker and<br />
lingerie saleswoman respectively.<br />
They met at a networking<br />
group run by someone who was<br />
pocketing the monthly fees from<br />
its attendees.<br />
“So we decided that we would<br />
set up our own, and give <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
women in business access to a<br />
networking group that wouldn’t<br />
cost them any regular monthly<br />
payments, as a way to network,<br />
to get brand awareness for<br />
women in the group and local<br />
awareness for our businesses,”<br />
said Mrs McQueen.<br />
“Most of us don’t have shop<br />
fronts or really a good way to get<br />
a local presence, so this gives us<br />
an opportunity to create that.”<br />
For Mrs Boyd it was also about<br />
taking care of fellow female<br />
business owners.<br />
“I’ve always believed it’s<br />
important for women to<br />
support women in business. In<br />
this group, we come together<br />
and share ideas and we’re able<br />
to promote our business and<br />
encourage each other,” she says.<br />
For the first few months,<br />
it was just the pair meeting<br />
regularly, then once the local<br />
grapevine gathered momentum,<br />
the membership grew with<br />
12 regular members now<br />
attending. The group includes<br />
an interior designer, a stylist,<br />
real estate agents, a lawyer and<br />
an accountant. The group meets<br />
regularly and Mrs McQueen<br />
admits they usually spend the<br />
first 20min catching up.<br />
The support is paramount, as<br />
many of the women work from<br />
home which can be isolating and<br />
lonely. The group allows them to<br />
have contact with like-minded<br />
entrepreneurs and also helps<br />
with marketing.<br />
The word-of-mouth referral<br />
system is imperative for each<br />
member, says Mrs Boyd.<br />
“It works so much better than<br />
putting an ad on Facebook,” she<br />
says.<br />
“Word-of-mouth and referrals<br />
is our best place to go to for a lot<br />
of our businesses.”<br />
So far there have been<br />
regular monthly meetings that<br />
sometimes include speakers. Mrs<br />
McQueen says each owner is also<br />
able to give a brief introduction<br />
about their business.<br />
“It’s really important that we<br />
get to know each business and<br />
trust that when we are referring<br />
clients, that we know they are<br />
going to be looked after.”<br />
Community is also at the<br />
forefront of a lot of what they do.<br />
The business owners have also<br />
run two highly-successful night<br />
markets where the proceeds<br />
from the raffles were donated<br />
to local charities. Last week a<br />

SELWYN TIMES<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
fundraiser for the Breast Cancer<br />
Foundation was held.<br />
What has become evident<br />
is the support gained from<br />
each other is invaluable, says<br />
Mrs McQueen. “We are all at<br />
different stages in our businesses.<br />
I’ve just set up in business and<br />
there are others that have been<br />
in business a long time. We can<br />
get good advice and talk about<br />
issues because others have been<br />
through similar things.”<br />
When asked what focus the<br />
group will have in the future,<br />
Mrs Boyd says it will be a case of<br />
watch this space.<br />
“I think we’re sort of evolving<br />
as we go. We would like to do<br />
more things in the community.<br />
Things continually develop, with<br />
every meeting we get ideas. One<br />
thing I do know is it is going to<br />
last and it’s going to be strong.”<br />
For Mrs McQueen there has<br />
also been an added bonus.<br />
“I think one of the interesting<br />
things out of it is we’ve made<br />
a lot of good friendships.<br />
Being able to give back to our<br />
community as well is important<br />
to us.”<br />

SELWYN TIMES<br />
Rebecca Scott<br />
Passion for teaching key to booming<br />
Rebecca Scott is the<br />
manager and owner<br />
of <strong>Selwyn</strong>’s awardwinning<br />
Busy Bumbles.<br />
Thousands of children<br />
attend the before,<br />
after school and<br />
holiday programme.<br />
The Rolleston<br />
resident spoke to<br />
Georgia O’Connor-<br />
Harding about<br />
why she set up the<br />
programme and how<br />
she wanted to be a<br />
teacher since she was<br />
five-years-old<br />
How did Busy Bumbles first<br />
come about?<br />
I set it up nearly nine years<br />
ago. I had been teaching nearly<br />
13 years and then I had my first<br />
child in 2006. I had about three<br />
months off and my husband<br />
is a policeman so he got paid<br />
parental leave as well. That was<br />
good so he stayed home too. But<br />
when I took my child into child<br />
care, although the place he went<br />
was absolutely fantastic, I still<br />
had the “mummy guilt” if you<br />
like, about being at work and not<br />
being a stay at home mum. I just<br />
remember feeling really disappointed<br />
that parents have this<br />
guilt. There are a lot of parents<br />
and mums out there who, like<br />
me, absolutely love working.<br />
My hat goes off to stay at home<br />
mums, but it is not me. We are<br />
made to feel quite guilty about<br />
being at work and it doesn’t help<br />
when your children are upset<br />
and what not about being in<br />
child care. I thought what can<br />
we do so parents don’t feel guilty.<br />
I had this dream of creating a<br />
place where kids wanted to be<br />
and they nagged their parents<br />
to be able to be there and then<br />
I knew that parents wouldn’t<br />
feel guilty about being at work<br />
because their child was having<br />
fun wherever they were.<br />
How do you come up with<br />
the ideas you have for your<br />
children?<br />
I am actually really lucky. Lisa,<br />
who works at the office, does<br />
all our planning. She spends<br />
a whole entire term planning<br />
our holiday programme and<br />
also our term activities because<br />
we have daily activities and<br />
weekly activities as well. She is<br />
absolutely skilled at it. We spend<br />
a whole term doing it and that<br />
is because it is really important<br />
to me that what we create is fun<br />
and interesting and entertaining<br />
and children love it.<br />
Is there one activity your<br />
team has come up with that has<br />
been an absolute favourite?<br />
Anything to do with food.<br />
Children love baking days or<br />
creating things out of food. That<br />
is always a hit so we usually<br />
have some sort of food day just<br />
about every holiday on a different<br />
topic. Some might be about<br />
making animals out of food.<br />
How has the programme<br />
changed since you first started<br />
out?<br />
It was really difficult nine<br />
years ago. What happened<br />
was my husband and I were in<br />
Auckland and then we had two<br />
children. He is born and bred in<br />
Lincoln and we wanted to come<br />
back down to be closer to family<br />
with our children. We made the<br />
tough decision, I would move<br />
down here with a new born and<br />
a two-year-old. He had been in<br />
the police and it took him nine<br />
months to transfer down here.<br />
In that nine months I had the<br />
children and I was setting up the<br />
business. I walked into Rolleston<br />
School and Andrew Morrall,<br />
the principal then, believed in<br />
everything I was saying and<br />
really liked what my values and<br />
vision were. He agreed to have us<br />
on site and we began there with<br />
our first venue. There are now<br />
thousands of children on our<br />
books with ten different venues<br />
and 58 different staff so it has<br />
grown massively which is just<br />
fantastic.<br />
What are your key values for<br />
the programme?<br />
Safety is obviously very<br />
important, that is our number<br />
one priority. Fun, happy<br />
and we like to call it a little<br />
bit crazy and by that we just<br />
mean exciting and fun. My<br />
staff aren’t just coming into<br />
work and sitting there on their<br />
phones while kids muck around<br />
with a box of blocks. They<br />
are actually interacting with<br />

Tell about your recent success<br />
at the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Awards <strong>2018</strong>.<br />
This was our first year<br />
applying for the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Awards<br />
and we won that one which was<br />
fantastic. It was also our first<br />
year being nominated for the<br />
Westpac Champion Awards<br />
<strong>2018</strong>. To get be a finalist for that,<br />
I couldn’t believe it and to be<br />
surrounded with the CEO of<br />
Christchurch Airport and other<br />
businesses. The Westpac awards<br />
were pretty fancy but to win the<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> Award that is awesome<br />
because that is us. That is the<br />
community we are looking after<br />
and it made me so proud. We<br />
also came runner up in people’s<br />

BIG SUCCESS: Busy Bumbles manager Rebecca Scott (centre)<br />
and her team were the winner of the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Business Award<br />
earlier this year.<br />
You mentioned you wanted to<br />
be a teacher since you were five<br />
years old. Tell me about what<br />
brought that about?<br />
I think it probably had a<br />
little bit to do with my little<br />
sister. I just loved being a big<br />
sister, she was so good. I would<br />
sit down and play “teachers” with<br />
her. She was lovely. Her friends<br />
had little sisters as well. As I got<br />
older we played real pretend<br />
schools and I had them reading<br />
and writing. There was absolutely<br />
no doubt in my mind, I 100 per<br />
cent knew I was going to be a<br />
teacher.<br />
How did you meet your<br />
husband?<br />
We have been together 20<br />
years. He was a bouncer at The<br />
Cook in Dunedin. I am born and<br />
bred Dunedin so he was down<br />
there as a bouncer before he went<br />
to police college. We have been<br />
married 10 or 11 years now. He is<br />
born and bred Lincoln, he went<br />
to Springston School where we<br />
have one of our venues at which<br />
is quite nice. We have got that<br />
connection with Busy Bumbles<br />
right back from when he was<br />
at school. My children are 11<br />
and nine, they are at Clearview<br />
100%<br />
CapItal GaIn<br />
to the ResIDent<br />
School.<br />
What do you like to do in<br />
spare time?<br />
Busy Bumbles only closes for<br />
two weeks in the entire year and I<br />
go camping. I love camping and I<br />
love drinking wine.<br />
What is your favourite place to<br />
go to and what is your favourite<br />
wine?<br />
Waikuku Beach is where we have<br />
gone for years. It has got a<br />
family feel and we know everyone<br />
there. I like pinot gris wine -<br />
anywhere from Central Otago is<br />
the best.<br />
What do you think of living in<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong>?<br />
One hundred and fifty per<br />
cent the best place in the world.<br />
I absolutely love it. I love the<br />
people, I love the culture. There<br />
are so many businesses opening<br />
up in <strong>Selwyn</strong>. So many successful<br />
businesses. When I was at the<br />
Westpac Champion Awards <strong>2018</strong><br />
there were five or six businesses<br />
represented there from <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
and that says a lot and I am<br />
forever meeting people who<br />
are really inspirational, really<br />
determined and just go getters.<br />
It is a really friendly, lovely, safe<br />
place.<br />
Liffey Springs gate to go<br />
once subdivision is sold<br />
• By Emily O’Connell<br />
A GATE that stops the public<br />
from accessing a sealed<br />
walkway at Lincoln’s Liffey<br />
Springs will eventually be<br />
removed.<br />
A Broadfield Estates<br />
spokesman said the locked<br />
gate at the end of Russ<br />
Drive is there because the<br />
walkway is currently private<br />
property. Broadfield Estates<br />

LINCOLN HIGH School may<br />
not have broken the world<br />
record for having the most<br />
people in a thumb-wrestling<br />
chain but it did succeed in<br />
bringing everyone together.<br />
Last week the school<br />
attempted to break the<br />
Guinness World Record of 957<br />
people thumb-wrestling in a<br />
chain for 5min.<br />
The record was set in Osaka,<br />
Japan, in 2012.<br />
Sports council co-head and<br />
student Fletcher Allan said<br />
the attempt went “really well”<br />

hand over some infrastructure<br />
towards the council – we’re<br />
working through that,” he said.<br />
Payne Court resident Janet<br />
James is frustrated with being<br />
unable to use the walkway and<br />
has to find alternative routes<br />
for her daily walks.<br />
Mrs James said there is<br />
a stone pathway which the<br />
public can use instead, but she<br />
wouldn’t walk it alone as<br />
she’s not “that steady on her<br />
feet.”<br />
“Sometimes I would just like<br />
to be able to do the walk, the<br />
whole circuit, without having<br />
to go over on the stones but I<br />
can’t.”<br />

in spite of the end result. “It<br />
wasn’t really about whether we<br />
got it or not. We were bringing<br />
everyone together, I think we<br />
actually got a Lincoln High<br />
School record for most people<br />
participating in an on-site<br />
event,” he said.<br />
Fletcher said about 1000<br />
people participated in the<br />
attempt from both Lincoln high<br />
and primary schools, as well<br />
as 20 parents helping with the<br />
time-keeping and officiating.<br />
He said the school would<br />
have beaten the record if it<br />
weren’t for “breaks” in the<br />
chain.<br />
Guided<br />
tour of<br />
Lakeside<br />
hall on<br />
Armistice<br />
Day<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
A GUIDED tour of the Lakeside<br />
Soldiers Memorial Hall will be<br />
held as part of the Armistice Day<br />
commemorations.<br />
The tour of the newly<br />
completed hall will follow the<br />
district council’s Armistice Day<br />
service at Lakeside on November<br />
11.<br />
The district council has<br />
organised a commemoration<br />
ceremony with a marquee to be<br />
set up at the car park of the hall<br />
on Harts Rd.<br />
About 200 people, including<br />
representatives from the<br />
Ellesmere RSA and New Zealand<br />
Army, are expected to attend.<br />
Construction of the new hall,<br />
dedicated to commemorating<br />
Lakeside men who lost their lives<br />
in the Boer War, World War 1<br />
and World War 2, will officially<br />
be completed on November 9.<br />
An official opening is planned<br />
for February 1.<br />
Hall committee chairman<br />
Dennis Carter said the hall will<br />
be a huge asset for the greater<br />
district and will make an<br />
excellent wedding venue.<br />
“It is a very cool building, very<br />
smart building,” he said.<br />
The facility includes a multipurpose<br />
hall, a courtyard,<br />
kitchen and bar, storage and<br />
bathrooms.<br />
The original hall was damaged<br />
beyond repair in the September<br />
4, 2010, earthquake.<br />

assemble at 10.30am for the<br />

Horrack trades the<br />
roof for the ring to<br />
open for Parker<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
LINCOLN-BASED<br />
boxer Bjorn Horrack will<br />
trade the roof for a ring<br />
to be on the under-card<br />
for Joseph Parker’s bout<br />
against American-Mexican<br />
Alexander Flores at<br />
Horncastle Arena.<br />
The 29-year-old is a<br />
roofer by trade but has<br />
competed in boxing,<br />
kickboxing and mixed<br />
martial arts since he was<br />
21.<br />
On December 15, he will<br />
take on fellow Cantabrian<br />
Quintin Poole from<br />
the Round 12 Boxing<br />
and Fitness Centre in<br />
Christchurch.<br />
Horrack will compete in<br />
a corporate bout consisting<br />
of three 2min rounds.<br />
“The talk is we’ll be<br />
opening the night, which<br />
is a bit of fun,” he said. “I’ll<br />

competitive combat.<br />
“I’d always loved<br />
mixed martial arts and<br />
have combined that with<br />

said the upcoming bout<br />
would be the biggest of his<br />
life.<br />
“Obviously there will be<br />
a few more people having a<br />
look and tuning in to<br />
see how we go,” he<br />
said.<br />
Horrack, who<br />
weighs in at 100kg,<br />
said he expected to<br />
give up at least 30kg<br />
to Poole.<br />
He said he had<br />
a few options on<br />
how to combat his<br />
opponent’s size and<br />
one was to simply try to<br />
outlast him.<br />
“He’ll try to use his size<br />
to lean on me and make<br />
things difficult, but the<br />
longer it goes, it may work<br />
in my favour.”<br />
Coach Steve Brown said<br />
Horrack has a big heart<br />
and they are working on<br />
his physical preparation<br />
and his mental approach<br />
to deal with boxing at a big<br />
event.<br />

advertorial<br />
“We are thrilled to finally be open,” says Boulevard village<br />
owner/operator Karen Harris. “it’s been a long journey, but<br />
we’re happy to be here.”<br />
Stage one of the village is complete with just one threebedroom<br />
villa still available for purchase out of the nine<br />
available. Karen says now is the perfect time to secure a<br />
two bedroom villa in the future stages & have a choice of<br />
position and a say in the décor.<br />
Karen says the village is now fully registered, so<br />
applications can be taken for future villas and that way you<br />
can be sure you will not miss out.<br />
Karen hopes that the local rolleston community will see<br />
the village as a community hub where people can come<br />
together and make use of the facilities available.<br />
“From day one, i want people to know we’re here in a<br />
caring capacity and not just as a retirement village.”<br />
Plans are now in the early stages for a full care facility,<br />
which includes a hospital, rest home, dementia unit and<br />
apartments.<br />
She also adds, “We are the only one in the area and one<br />
of few non-corporatised retirement villages in New Zealand.<br />
We’re not a cookie cutter facility, we offer a variety of villa<br />
designs, we’re more boutique but with a homely feel.”<br />
Boulevard village residents ann Butts and Kay lethaby are excited to be in their<br />
new villas and look forward to meeting new residents and neighbours as each<br />
stage is completed.<br />
new residents<br />
Boulevard villa owners ann Butts and Kay lethaby are<br />
excited about being the first residents in the village.<br />
Kay says that from the start she loved the open and<br />
sunny style of the villas. She also enjoyed being able to<br />
choose the décor including colours, drapes and carpet.<br />
Moving into her villa was an easy choice, as she wanted<br />
to stay in the area and continue being part of the wider<br />
community.<br />
“Karen was really good, helping to choose the drapes,<br />
and going out of her way to make sure we got what we<br />
wanted right down to the extra touches to make it feel like<br />
home.”<br />
ann says she wanted to stay in rolleston too and when<br />
the opportunity to purchase in Boulevard village came up,<br />
she says it was ideal.<br />
Both like the spacious layout of the village, with its wide<br />
streets, communal gardens, and the feeling of community<br />
that will come as each stage is completed.<br />
Kay and ann are also eagerly anticipating the new<br />
community centre, which will offer a beautician room, gym,<br />
swim spa, café, bar, theatre and barbecue area along with<br />
a small putting green and mini men’s shed and community<br />
vege gardens. in the mean time we have a temporary<br />
meeting area with a large lounge, bar and television and<br />
there will be an outdoor sitting area with raised planter<br />
box’s.<br />
“We’ll have a choice,” says Kay, “we can either stay at<br />
home or step out the door and meet someone our own<br />
age.”<br />
another bonus is the onsite care and maintenance.<br />
“We’ll be able to go away and not have to worry about the<br />
gardens,” says ann, “it’ll all be done for us!”<br />
the Boulevard is located at 200 dunns Crossing road<br />
and is surrounded by quality homes. the village is a fiveminute<br />
drive from rolleston’s shopping centre and handy to<br />
Faringdon’s South Point.<br />

Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong><br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong>’s population at<br />
62,200 and growing<br />
It’s official – <strong>Selwyn</strong> is confirmed as the third-largest territorial authority in the South Island.<br />
Provisional population estimates released last week by Stats NZ show the district’s population at<br />
30 June <strong>2018</strong> was estimated at 62,200 – an increase of 4.8 percent from the June 2017 figure of<br />
59,300.<br />
The latest figures show <strong>Selwyn</strong>’s growth has pulled clear of Waimakariri (60,700) and now sits<br />
behind only Christchurch and Dunedin among South Island councils.<br />
Stats NZ confirms that <strong>Selwyn</strong> has been the second fastest-growing district in New Zealand, with<br />
only Queenstown-Lakes district (5.5 percent) growing at a faster rate.<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> mayor Sam Broughton says the latest data continues a long-term trend of sustained<br />
growth for the district.<br />
“It’s not a surprise that we keep seeing our population growing,” he says. “The district has a host<br />
of advantages that make our district attractive.<br />
“We can offer land at affordable prices, a family-friendly environment, excellent infrastructure,<br />
great road and rail links for business – and of course, some of the most stunning natural<br />
landscapes in the world, right on our back doorstep.<br />
“These factors are attracting families from around New Zealand and the world, along with<br />
businesses that are establishing or relocating in our<br />
townships and business zones.”<br />
South Island population –<br />
territorial authorities<br />
The population figures are backed up by the Council’s<br />
own residential growth data. In the year to June <strong>2018</strong> the<br />
Council issued 2,458 building consents, only slightly lower<br />
than the previous year, and new residential subdivisions are<br />
continuing to develop.<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong>’s economy is also on a strong growth curve. The<br />
district’s gross domestic product (GDP) for the year to June<br />
<strong>2018</strong> increased by 5.3% during the year – nearly double the<br />
New Zealand average of 2.7 percent, and well ahead of the<br />
Canterbury regional figure of 2.5%.<br />
“Growth has been good for us and <strong>Selwyn</strong> is in a fortunate<br />
position, but growth and change are not easy or cheap,”<br />
Mayor Broughton says. “As a council we continue to plan<br />
and focus on delivering quality infrastructure and services at<br />
affordable levels for our community.’<br />

There are a number of reasons why our waste management contractors may not have collected your<br />
bin. If your bin was not collected, a tag may have been attached to it explaining why.<br />
Some reasons why your bin may not have been collected are:<br />
· the lid was not shut flat or the bin was overflowing<br />
· the bin was contaminated (eg non-recyclable items in the recycling bin or plastic in the organics bin)<br />
or contained liquid or hazardous waste<br />
· the bins were not registered to your property<br />
· the bin was put out on the wrong week for recycling<br />
· the bin or bag was too heavy and over the weight restrictions.<br />
· the bin or bag was not put out on time<br />
· the bin was not correctly presented at the kerbside.<br />
If you think your bin was missed please contact us on 347 2800 or by filling out an online helpline form<br />
at selwyn.govt.nz/contact-us. Please provide the serial number on the side of your bin.<br />
We are experiencing huge growth in organics volumes right now and this is causing our collection<br />
trucks to take a little bit longer to complete all collections so if your bins are still full leave them out for a<br />
short while before contacting us as our team may still be on their way.<br />
For further information you can go to selwyn.govt.nz/bin-not-collected.<br />
Property revaluations in your<br />
letterbox soon<br />
If you own property in <strong>Selwyn</strong> you will receive an updated rateable<br />
value for your property in the post by mid-November.<br />
The new valuations, assessed by Quotable Value (QV) on behalf of<br />
the Council, will be used to help calculate the Council’s rates next<br />
year – they will not affect your rates until the year starting 1 July 2019.<br />
Here are some key things to note:<br />
· The new capital value reflects the likely selling price if the property<br />
had been sold on 1 July <strong>2018</strong>.<br />
· Revaluation doesn’t mean the Council collects any more money<br />
from rates, but it helps us work out everyone’s share of rates,<br />
which is partly based on capital value.<br />
· Even if the value of your property has increased, it doesn’t mean<br />
your rates will rise by the same amount.<br />
For most residential properties in <strong>Selwyn</strong>, only around a quarter of<br />
their rates bill is based on capital value, with the majority set based<br />
on a fixed amount per property, such as for library services.<br />
The average increase in capital value across <strong>Selwyn</strong> was 6.7%<br />
(an average of all capital value changes for residential, rural and<br />
business land). This means property owners whose capital value<br />
increased more than the average for <strong>Selwyn</strong> can expect a slightly<br />
higher than average rate increase from 1 July 2019. Property<br />
owners whose capital value increase was less than the average can<br />
expect a slightly lower than average rates change next year.<br />
Property owners also have the opportunity to object to the valuation<br />
if they choose to – these must be lodged by 20 December <strong>2018</strong>.<br />
More information will be included with your revaluation notice, or<br />
visit www.selwyn.govt.nz/revaluation.<br />
War memorial lighting<br />
As part of WW1 Centenary and Armistice commemorations, the<br />
Council has installed feature lighting at war memorial sites in<br />
townships across <strong>Selwyn</strong>.<br />
The lights, which were installed at nine memorial sites at a cost of<br />
$137,000, provide for white or coloured lighting of the memorials,<br />
depending on the wishes of the community.<br />
Council Property and Commercial Manager Douglas Marshall says<br />
as well as highlighting the memorials, the lights also allow the sites to<br />
support other important community events and commemorations.<br />
“The installation of the lights is a fitting way to mark the centenary of<br />
the armistice and remember the sacrifice of the citizen-soldiers and<br />
nurses who went to war to defend the nation’s interests,” he says.<br />
To date lighting has been installed at:<br />
· Tai Tapu (Rhodes Park Domain Gates of Remembrance)<br />
· Leeston Cenotaph<br />
· Springston War Memorial<br />
· Hororata War Memorial<br />
· Rolleston Memorial Clock Tower<br />
· Darfield War Memorial<br />
· Dunsandel War Memorial<br />
· Prebbleton War memorial<br />
· Sheffield War Memorial.<br />
Lighting will be installed at other war memorials in the district in<br />
the future.<br />

Southbrook maintain top spot in country cricket<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
SOUTHBROOK’S bowlers<br />
ensured they would remain<br />
at the top of the Canterbury<br />
Country premier one-day<br />
competition after a comfortable<br />
five-wicket win over Weedons<br />
on Saturday.<br />
Southbrook made the most<br />
of a bowler-friendly pitch at<br />
Weedons Domain to skittle the<br />
hosts for just 70.<br />
Olly Heweston-Brown was the<br />
main destroyer taking 4/12.<br />
Southbrook had their issues<br />
chasing down the target and<br />
were in trouble at 34/5 before<br />
Alex Simpson steadied the run<br />
chase with 19 not out.<br />
In other matches, Darfield<br />
did well to scramble to 154 after<br />
being asked to bat by Kaiapoi at<br />
Darfield Domain.<br />
Nick Johnston’s 50, and 37<br />
from Sean Carston, provided the<br />
backbone of the innings.<br />
Tim Oram, Justin Gourlie<br />
SPORTS<br />
and Wayne Bell each took three<br />
wickets for Kaiapoi.<br />
Bell was the hero with the<br />
bat, scoring 40 and combining<br />
with Caleb Greaves (30) to see<br />
Kaiapoi home with three wickets<br />
in hand for their first win of the<br />
season.<br />
Leeston-Southbridge had little<br />
trouble chasing down Oxford<br />
Rangiora’s total of 93.<br />
Wicketkeeper Joel Harden’s<br />
30 and 24 from former Dutch<br />
international Tim Gruijters saw<br />
the hosts home with four wickets<br />
and 25 overs to spare.<br />
Cheviot opener Ted Whelan’s<br />
79 proved match-defining<br />
against Sefton. He was the main<br />
contributor in Cheviot’s 139 all<br />
out. Sefton looked to be in control<br />
of the game at 45/2 but<br />
then faltered to be all out for<br />
103.<br />
On Saturday, Kaiapoi will host<br />
Weedons, Oxford will welcome<br />
Darfield, Leeston-Southbridge<br />
will travel to play Sefton and<br />
Southbrook will await Cheviot.<br />

first national title<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
WEST MELTON’S Sarah<br />
Quinn has become a national<br />
champion for the first time in<br />
rhythmic gymnastics after a<br />
stellar competition<br />
at Tauranga.<br />
The 16-year-old,<br />
who goes to Villa<br />
Maria College and<br />
trains at Bishopdale’s<br />
Delta Rhythmic<br />
Gymnastics Club,<br />
was named the<br />
overall national<br />
champion at level<br />
nine.<br />
Sarah won the<br />
ribbon and ball<br />
competitions, and<br />
was third in the<br />
clubs, with her<br />
consistency across<br />
all disciplines<br />

has not looked back.<br />
She trained for more than<br />
15 hours a week in the lead-up<br />
to the competition and was<br />
delighted with the overall result.<br />
She said she<br />
always enjoyed<br />
competing with the<br />
clubs.<br />
“I always enjoyed<br />
learning new<br />
routines with<br />
them and it was<br />
something I learnt<br />
quickly,” she<br />
said.<br />
Sarah said she<br />
always looks<br />
forward to training<br />
but it was the<br />
friends she has<br />
made that had kept<br />
her competing and<br />
active in the sport.<br />
She said she was<br />
keen to try for a<br />
level 10 title next<br />
year at nationals to<br />
add another golden moment to<br />
her rhythmic gymnastics CV.<br />
Lincoln Combined hunt<br />
for new first XV coach<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
THE LINCOLN Combined first<br />
XV rugby team will be looking<br />
for a new coach for their UC<br />
Championship campaign next<br />
year.<br />
Mike Wilson, who has been in<br />
charge for the past two seasons<br />
and took the team to their best<br />
ever finish this year, said family<br />
commitments won out.<br />
“I’ve got a young daughter at<br />
home and coaching a team in<br />
the UC Championship needs a<br />
total commitment and I guess<br />
spending time with my young<br />
family was the main motivation<br />
behind the decision,” he said.<br />
“It was always my intention to<br />
re-assess things after two years.”<br />
Lincoln Combined were top<br />
four contenders for much of<br />
this season before fading late to<br />
finish seventh with an eight-win,<br />
seven loss record.<br />
Wilson said he believed it<br />
was the right decision to make<br />
with six months to go until the<br />

MY PRIDE AND JOY<br />
Passionate about<br />
Cameron has had a lifetime interest<br />
and involvement in motorcycles,<br />
purchasing his first bike at the age of<br />
10, with money earned from picking<br />
blueberries. He admits the bike was a<br />
‘bit of a dunger’.<br />
At 13, Cameron enthusiastically<br />
competed in motocross racing with him<br />
winning numerous trophies. The effects<br />
of a serious accident while practising<br />
at home, which left him with a broken<br />
neck, lower vertebrae and ribs, and a<br />
punctured lung, caused Cameron to<br />
Motocross<br />
Supporting this year’s Jones Road Auto <strong>Selwyn</strong> Motor Fest will be local<br />
businessman Cameron Holland, from Holland Collision Centre.<br />
give up racing for some years.<br />
With the introduction of less<br />
challenging tracks without the<br />
extremely high jumps, has seen a rise<br />
in the popularity of motocross and<br />
Cameron returning to the sport once<br />
more. As a veteran racer (over 35 years),<br />
he won the Syd Harrison Memorial<br />
Trophy on his 1979 Suzuki RM400.<br />
More recently he has been racing two<br />
Yamahas, an YZF250 and 450.<br />
Over the years, Cameron has built<br />
up a collection of classic motorcycles.<br />
These include a 1990 Kawasaki KX500,<br />
1987 Kawasaki KX250, 1983 Maico<br />
490, 2000 Honda CR500, 1985 Honda<br />
CR250, 1974 Yamaha MX125 and 250,<br />
and other newer bikes.<br />
Holland Collision Centre has also<br />
sponsored other riders and teams,<br />
including the Yamaha JCR race team,<br />
owned by Josh Coppins. Josh was a<br />
professional international racer for 17<br />
years, winning championship races in<br />
various countries along with 13 world<br />
championship races, and was twice<br />

PETS & PAWS<br />
Remember the fifth of November<br />
Keep your pets inside and safe on Guy Fawkes night!<br />
With Guy Fawkes Day fast approaching,<br />
it’s time to think about your pets. If your<br />
pet was particularly frightened last year or<br />
has a loud noise phobia, now is the time to<br />
put a plan in place that will keep both you<br />
and your pet happy and stress-free.<br />
Animals and<br />
fireworks don’t mix<br />
Each year SPCAs throughout New<br />
Zealand receive hundreds of calls relating<br />
to fireworks during the festive season<br />
from <strong>October</strong> to January. Animals are<br />
either injured, frightened, go missing or<br />
sometimes abused at this time of year.<br />
While New Zealand has a strict window of<br />
three days from November 2 to November<br />
5 for purchasing fireworks, it has no set<br />
day for fireworks to be used. People can set<br />
fireworks off before, during and after Guy<br />
Fawkes Day.<br />
For some pets this can be absolute<br />
torture, sending them into states of fear and<br />
anxiety every time they hear a loud noise.<br />
Sending your pets off to a quiet cattery or<br />
kennel facility in the country may also be<br />
another option around this stressful time.<br />

SPCAs top tips for animals<br />
and fireworks<br />
• Never let fireworks off close to animals.<br />
• Stay home with your pet<br />
• Keep pets indoors, so they won’t see the<br />
flashes and the bangs will be muffled. Turn<br />
up the volume on your radio or TV to help<br />
drown out loud bangs with familiar sounds.<br />
• Make sure that your cat or dog has<br />
somewhere comforting to hide such as an<br />
igloo, box, crate or somewhere they feel<br />
safe to retreat to.<br />
• Try a compression wrap for dogs, like a<br />
thunder shirt.<br />
• Exercise your dog early in the day<br />
to avoid being out during dusk when<br />
fireworks could be set off.<br />
• Make sure your cats and dogs are<br />
microchipped and have a collar and<br />
identification tag with your contact details<br />
on it, should your pet panic and run away.<br />
• Comfort your pet. Try to behave calmly<br />
and reassuringly. Take special care of<br />
elderly or nervous pets.<br />
• Never punish your pets when they are<br />
scared. This will only make their fear and<br />
stress levels worse.<br />
• Don’t forget small pets like rabbits,<br />
guinea pigs or chickens. Have them tucked<br />
away or even inside for the night.<br />

All hands on deck for summer planting<br />
With summer just around<br />
the corner, it’s all hands on<br />
deck to ensure a steady<br />
harvest throughout the<br />
summer months. Get those<br />
heat-loving crops in the<br />
ground ahead of the warm,<br />
long days to come<br />
BEFORE ANY of the following<br />
crops can be planted, the soil<br />
needs to be well nourished and<br />
dug over. If the ground is dry,<br />
it will need a good watering<br />
before any crops go in. Blend<br />
in soil conditioners, such as<br />
sheep pellets and well-matured<br />
compost, or a bit of both, then<br />
add a dusting of vegetable<br />
fertiliser and you are good to<br />
grow.<br />
Tomatoes<br />
By now, if you have been<br />
growing your own plants from<br />
seed, the plants should be at a<br />
size where they are ready for<br />
transplanting into the garden.<br />
Aim for seedings to be at least<br />
10cm tall, however they can<br />
three or four times that size too.<br />
Position them in a sunny spot<br />
away from any blustery winds,<br />
and plant them deeply in the<br />
soil. And don’t forget to stake<br />
the plants – this is important<br />
if you want a bumper crop, as<br />
the stems can easily break with<br />
the weight of the fruit and can<br />
be damaged by wind. If room<br />
is tight, and space is limited,<br />
grafted tomatoes produce a<br />
larger and more reliable crop on<br />
one plant.<br />
‘Big Boss’ is a new variety this<br />
year. It is a beefsteak variety,<br />
only grows to 1m tall and<br />
produces loads of large fruit<br />
that are about 0.5kg each. With<br />
superb flavour and reliable<br />
cropping ability, look out for<br />
it and ask for it by name at<br />
Oderings.<br />
Eggplant<br />
Plants will be in all the garden<br />
centres now, so if you missed<br />
sowing seeds, don’t panic. Plant<br />
one to two plants per person in<br />
the household. Eggplants need a<br />
long, hot summer to thrive, so if<br />
you live in a spot that hasn’t fully<br />
warmed up yet, you can hold off<br />
planting them out for another<br />
month. They are an ideal crop<br />
for large tubs and bins, just<br />
ensure they have good drainage<br />
as they hate wet feet. Be aware<br />
that they are not a fast-growing<br />
crop, and they do take a few<br />
weeks to settle in before they<br />
start actively growing.<br />
Both grafted and seedling<br />
hybrids are available in the<br />
shops. Seed catalogues have a<br />
huge selection of varieties and<br />
it isn’t too late to sow seed – if<br />
the plants are in the ground by<br />
Christmas you will be fine.<br />
‘Golden egg’ is a neat golfball-sized<br />
yellow variety and one<br />
of the best larger ones is ‘black<br />
moon’.<br />
Cucumber<br />
Now the ground temperatures<br />
are warm, and the coldest nights<br />
are all but over, cucumbers can<br />
be planted out. You still have<br />
time to sow seeds, too – these<br />
germinate in about one week,<br />
and are ready to plant out within<br />
a month. For the best results,<br />
telegraph cucumbers do best in<br />
a glasshouse or in a sheltered<br />
spot in the garden. As they<br />
begin to grow, the long tendrillike<br />
branches scramble. Where<br />
possible, tie these branches up to<br />
keep the developing fruit off the<br />
ground as this will ensure even<br />
ripening. However, if the fruit<br />
get too heavy on the vine and<br />
move about in the wind they can<br />
snap off, so, in areas where wind<br />
protection is not guaranteed, it<br />
is best to leave cucumber to trail<br />
along the ground – a few pale<br />
patches on the bottom side of a<br />
cucumber is better than nothing.<br />
A reliable smooth-skinned<br />
telegraph variety is ‘english<br />
greengrocer’ (see kings seeds).<br />
Apple cucumbers are neat, with<br />
their pale creamy white flesh<br />
and skin, and for those who<br />
enjoy the smaller, more intensely<br />
flavoured cucumbers look for<br />
the Lebanese types. These are<br />
ideal for growing along the<br />
ground.<br />
Kūmara<br />
For gardeners who live in cold<br />
regions, apologies, but kūmara<br />
won’t easily grow for you – they<br />
require a long, hot season.<br />
Bundles of cuttings are in<br />
the shops now and should be<br />
planted in well-prepared and<br />
dug-over soil, on mounds,<br />
roughly 30–50cm apart. The<br />
plants take a few weeks to settle<br />
in and, by Christmas,<br />
the plants will be actively<br />
growing, almost like triffids,<br />
if the conditions are ideal. Water<br />
as required when the soil dries<br />
out. Harvest should be done<br />
before the frosts arrive as the<br />
crop needs to cure in the sun<br />
before they can be stored. This<br />
process toughens the skin,<br />
which enables kūmara to be<br />
stored in a dry, cool place for up<br />
to six months.<br />

NEW LISTING<br />
PRICES VALLEY<br />
2890 Christchurch Akaroa Road<br />
Raise your family with the lifestyle you always dreamed<br />
of: wide open paddocks, friendly chooks, pony rides,<br />
character building farm chores and making huts. Enjoy<br />
the warmer months outdoors in the beautiful gardens,<br />
firing up the BBQ; stay snug in the winter with the wood<br />
burner on wetback and large conservatory trapping the<br />
daytime warmth. A perfectly placed spa pool on the<br />
deck lets you marvel at the night sky all year round.<br />
The solid construction of the 2+ bedroom cottage is<br />
reinforced by new roofing, wiring and piling from its<br />
relocation in the 1990's. More recent improvements<br />
include an updated bathroom with wet room shower.<br />
Whilst the cottage has been lovingly maintained, just<br />
think of what could be created when you take<br />
advantage of the lead lighting, built-in cabinets and<br />
gorgeous wood panelling!<br />
Is this your dream realised? Not many lifestyle properties<br />
are set up to be so diverse in their offering and remain<br />
an affordable option.<br />

Presenting your home for sale?<br />
The presentation of your home<br />
doesn’t mean spending thousands<br />
on an upgrade either! So why<br />
wouldn’t you want to do everything<br />
possible to make it appealing to<br />
prospective purchasers?<br />
Street appeal<br />
The exterior of your home is the first<br />
thing buyers will see, so the property<br />
needs to look well-kept and inviting. Take<br />
a look at your place from the street and<br />
see it through a buyer’s eyes. So, cut the<br />
lawns, trim trees, plants and hedges, add<br />
some garden lights and place a nice pot or<br />
plant by the front door. Ensure the house<br />
exterior is cleaned or freshened with new<br />
paint if necessary, hose down drives, paths<br />
and fences, put stylish new numbers on<br />
the house and perhaps buy a funky new<br />
letter box!<br />
Make an entrance<br />
Even if your entrance or hallway is<br />
small, you can still give it some wow! A<br />
large mirror adds light and makes an<br />
entrance look twice the size. Fresh flowers,<br />
candles or a stylish piece of art create an<br />
inviting first impression. Ensure floors are<br />
clean whether timber, tiles or carpet.<br />
Create space<br />
Light, air and space are three key<br />
factors in presenting a home to the<br />
best advantage. Open up curtains<br />
and windows and use lamps and light<br />
fittings for mood and ambience. Arrange<br />
furniture to maximise space and remove<br />
items that make the room appear<br />
cramped.<br />
Fresh feel<br />
Freshen rooms with new paint if<br />
necessary, but aim for neutral tones which<br />
are more versatile for buyers. Add a splash<br />
of colour in cushions, throws, artwork or<br />
a vase of flowers. Invest in a new duvet or<br />
bedspread and always make the bed!<br />
Clear out clutter<br />
Storage space sells but clutter<br />
complicates! Clean out your cupboards,<br />
shelves and garage, and get rid of<br />
unnecessary clutter. Buyers inspect<br />
wardrobes and cupboards so tidy them up<br />
and reduce the number of photos, books,<br />
nicknacks on display – they distract<br />
buyers, too!<br />
Beautify the bathroom<br />
Replace or resurface fittings if necessary,<br />
but otherwise you can simply beautify<br />
your bathroom with thorough and<br />
fastidious cleaning, thick opulent towels,<br />
a tray of beautiful soaps and some lush,<br />
green plants. Invest in a new shower<br />
curtain or laundry hamper, and maybe a<br />
sleek, modern towel rail.<br />
Clean clean clean<br />
Cleaning is a mandatory part of<br />
selling your home: have carpets, rugs<br />
and upholstery commercially cleaned<br />
and sanitised, clean drapes and blinds to<br />
look like new, polish glass and furniture,<br />
wash down all surfaces and fittings in<br />
the bathroom and kitchen, clean all light<br />
fittings, wash windows inside and out,<br />
deodorise your home to eliminate any<br />
odours from pets, cooking or smoke.<br />
Outdoor spaces<br />
Even a small patio, deck or terrace<br />
can be enhanced with a café table and<br />
chairs. Add some colourful accessories –<br />
placemats, candle lamps, pots and plants,<br />
and there you have an extra living area.<br />
If space is not limited, hang a hammock,<br />
string some outdoor lights, position a<br />
garden sculpture or create a water feature<br />
that buyers will love.<br />
Hire a handyman<br />
Squeaking doors, dripping taps, cracked<br />
tiles, broken fences, leaking toilets or<br />
appliances that don’t work are a turn-off<br />
for buyers. If you can’t repair or replace<br />
things yourself, then hire a handyman to<br />
make sure everything in your home works<br />
as it should.<br />
Finish it first<br />
Buyers want to see a finished home,<br />
not one that’s still being fixed! So finish<br />
everything before you list your home<br />
for sale, then launch it onto the market<br />
when it looks its absolute best – you have<br />
nothing to lose and everything to gain!<br />

space has seen more<br />

Looking for a property – what really counts?<br />
You are in the market for a new<br />
property, scrolling the Internet,<br />
examining properties for sale and<br />
zeroing in on those with potential. They<br />
might be in locations that offer cheaper<br />
land, larger houses, or convenience to<br />
work or school.<br />
You may have visited show homes<br />
and open homes becoming confused,<br />
overwhelmed or swept away with<br />
emotional factors like having<br />
everything new, or extra features such<br />
as three car garaging.<br />
To be happy with your choice, list the<br />
features that you need, considering:<br />
• Family space – Is there room for<br />
the children to play indoors and for<br />
television and entertainment units?<br />
Should this be open plan or separated?<br />
• Kitchen – What needs to be in<br />
your kitchen? How serious are you<br />
about a butler’s pantry? Is it a whim<br />
or something that offers a practical<br />
solution to the way you use your<br />
kitchen?<br />
• Bedroom sizes – What are optimum<br />
sizes? Smaller bedrooms may translate<br />
to slightly lower building costs while<br />
extra space can be useful. When<br />
looking at existing homes, consider<br />
whether the size of each bedroom is<br />
sufficient.<br />
• Garaging – A standard double<br />
garage once two cars are parked there<br />
offers little space for the toys. What<br />
toys do you have and could they live<br />
with the lawnmower in a garden shed,<br />
a cheaper option to three car garaging?<br />
If the budget allows and a larger garage<br />
with workshop is important, make it a<br />
selection priority.<br />
• Size of land – Lifestyle properties<br />
offer space for children, pets, hobbies,<br />
jll.co.nz<br />
an expansive garden and perhaps a<br />
home-run business but they require<br />
work so are not for everyone and a<br />
compact section might be more sensible<br />
if a tight budget or busy lifestyle.<br />
• Bathrooms – Second and third<br />
bathrooms are great in homes with<br />
teenagers and a wet shower room is<br />
ideal for young children. A bath might<br />
be fashionable though is often not used<br />
and its absence could mean a more<br />
spacious bathroom.<br />
• Laundry – Would a laundry in the<br />
garage do the job?<br />
• Storage – How much storage do<br />
you need? Weigh up what can truly be<br />
stored in the garage once vehicles are<br />
in, a preference in winter. Garages vary<br />
in size so check the size to ensure your<br />
vehicles will fit. Look also at where<br />
else the house offers storage capacity<br />
such as in hall cupboards, a large hot<br />
water cylinder cupboard, wardrobes<br />
(check their width and depth), walkin<br />
robe, attic storage trusses, as well as<br />
the potential for hooks and shelving<br />
in the garage for bikes, tools, garden<br />
equipment and even kayaks.<br />
• Off-street parking – How many<br />
vehicles can be parked on the driveway?<br />
Will this space be sufficient?<br />
• Garden - Is there sufficient space<br />
for your children to play or for<br />
entertaining?<br />
A checklist will allow you to determine<br />
what will suit your needs, the point of<br />
the exercise, saving you time looking at<br />
properties or potential house designs<br />
while assisting you to decide whether<br />
to buy a new or existing home with<br />
both options having advantages and<br />
disadvantages.<br />

Your guide to all things Real Estate<br />
in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> District<br />
Taking a<br />
smart approach<br />
to building<br />
Being organised, aids a<br />
smooth build whether<br />
engaging a building<br />
company or overseeing<br />
the project yourself.<br />
Start by finding a building site. Its<br />
orientation to sun and prevailing winds<br />
should determine your house design so<br />
the sun’s free energy is capitalised on<br />
and you have sunny sheltered spots for<br />
outdoor living.<br />
Choosing your design and building<br />
company may go hand in hand, where<br />
the latter’s consultant works with you to<br />
determine the best plan for your section,<br />
lifestyle and family needs.<br />
Alternatively, you might employ an<br />
architect or architectural draughtsman.<br />
While it may cost a little more for house<br />
plans drawn up for building consent<br />
and maybe lodged by your professional,<br />
it allows you freedom to work with a<br />
smaller builder or oversee your own<br />
project. Ensure all tradespeople are<br />
licensed building practitioners (a<br />
building consent requirement).<br />
Before building starts, determine all<br />
building materials and fixtures (some<br />
will be required to be stated for building<br />
consent). Many housing companies take<br />
their clients through these decisions<br />
before commencing building. Changes<br />
made once building is underway<br />
are likely to incur extra charges and<br />
even budget overruns, especially if<br />
tradespeople return to the job.<br />
If working with a smaller builder,<br />
you may have more time to choose the<br />
kitchen design, kitchen appliances and<br />
paint colours. Working through these<br />
decisions early on however ensures time<br />
to weigh-up options rather than a rushed<br />
choice.<br />
Try making a list of the fixtures and<br />
fittings to be decided on, such as the<br />
type and colour of the exterior cladding,<br />
roof, aluminium joinery, front door<br />
and garage door. List the bathroom<br />
and toilet products required then visit<br />
plumbing suppliers to get ideas for<br />
vanities, bath, showers, taps, bath spout<br />
and the like. If having a walk-in shower,<br />
consider whether you want a glass door<br />
and the number of shower heads. Write<br />
down the brands and product numbers<br />
you like and obtain prices to allow<br />
differentiation between the options.<br />
Meeting your plumber on site is also a<br />
good idea so placement of taps and the<br />
like can be discussed.<br />
Most electricians do a walk-through<br />
with clients to determine where power<br />
points, lights and electronic fittings will<br />
be positioned. Think about how each<br />
room will be used and furniture might<br />
be placed, remembering it is more<br />
affordable to include these while the<br />
house is under construction than retrofit<br />
later. Mark your ideas on a copy of the<br />
plan ahead of time.<br />
Collect paint charts and purchase test<br />
pots of colours you like then paint large<br />
pieces of cardboard to get an idea of<br />
their effect. Visit showhomes too, asking<br />
about their colour schemes.<br />
Planning ahead will help take stress<br />
out of the building process.<br />

Building blocks<br />
to a new home<br />
As Cantabrians continue to move forward, when building<br />
a new home, here’s a reminder to pay attention to some of<br />
the fine details...<br />
Anyone intending to build a new home<br />
should have the builder’s contract<br />
checked out by an experienced lawyer.<br />
A payment schedule can also<br />
minimise financial risks. Issues that<br />
you may have to deal with include:<br />
the deposit, guarantees and warranties<br />
If you want to compare building<br />
companies, it’s important to get down<br />
to finer details such as how many<br />
power points there are per room, the<br />
type of windows you are having or<br />
which paint finishes are included.<br />
Questions to ask<br />
builders include:<br />
• Do you have a completion guarantee<br />
and how does it work?<br />
• Is there a loss of deposit<br />
guarantee?<br />
• Is the company a<br />
Registered Master Builder<br />
and does it use thirdparty<br />
written guarantees?<br />
• What is the schedule for<br />
payments?<br />
• How are the deposit and<br />
progress payments<br />
administered?<br />
• Are they held in a solicitor’s trust<br />
fund?<br />
• Will the master franchisor complete<br />
the build if the franchisee goes out<br />
of business<br />
• What are the exact specs?<br />
• Are the prices fixed?<br />
• What is excluded from the build?<br />
• Are there any restrictions on<br />
driveways or any other connections?<br />
• Can you speak with clients who<br />
have just completed a build?<br />
Do your homework before you decide<br />
on a building company and you will<br />
have a less stressful time once the<br />
building process starts.<br />
