message<br />

through<br />
• By Louis Day<br />
POLICE HAVE noticed a<br />
significant improvement in the<br />
number of motorists drinking and<br />
driving in the district over the last<br />
week.<br />
Around 100 drivers in Lincoln<br />
and Leeston were pulled over during<br />
mobile patrols at the weekend<br />
and only one was over the limit.<br />
The female driver, in her early<br />
20s, recorded 600mcg/L on Saturday<br />
night in Lincoln, 350mcg/L<br />
over the limit of 250mcg/L.<br />
There have been 124 alcoholrelated<br />
car crashes in the district<br />
since 2013, 27 of them being either<br />
serious or fatal.<br />
Three drink drivers were stopped<br />
by police last week and four were<br />
stopped the week before that.<br />
Sergeant Phil Bayne said there<br />
was still a lot of work to be done in<br />
spite of a clear improvement.<br />
“It’s very difficult to tell over one<br />
weekend whether things have actually<br />
improved, for all we know it<br />
could increase next weekend.”<br />
Sergeant Bayne said police would<br />
continue to have a high visibility<br />
throughout the community to<br />
ensure drink driving remained<br />
low.<br />

CHECKPOINTS, random stopping,<br />
publicity and word of mouth.<br />
It looks like all have combined to work<br />
the oracle when it comes to the police<br />
drink driving campaign in the district, or<br />
more specifically, in Lincoln and Leeston.<br />
As we report on page 1 today, the number of motorists<br />
caught over the limit dropped off significantly at the weekend.<br />
A number of motorists were being picked up in that 6-9pm<br />
time frame.<br />
But the only one caught at the weekend was a woman in her<br />
early 20s and that was very late at night.<br />
She was well over the limit, so it was a good job she was<br />
taken off the road.<br />
The moral of the story: Don’t slip back into bad habits.<br />

Water stoush brewing<br />
between council and Government<br />
• By Emily O’Connell<br />
DISTRICT councillors Craig<br />
Watson and Grant Miller<br />
say <strong>Selwyn</strong> is well-placed to<br />
continue maintaining its own<br />
water.<br />
Their comments come as<br />
the Government reviews how<br />
drinking water,<br />
wastewater and<br />
stormwater services<br />
are being managed.<br />
Water New<br />
Zealand is lobbying<br />
the Government<br />
Craig<br />
Watson<br />
Grant<br />
Miller<br />
and councils to<br />
support a more centralised<br />
system.<br />
The issue was<br />
discussed at the<br />
district council’s<br />
audit and risk subcommittee<br />
meeting<br />
last week.<br />
Cr Watson said<br />
there is a “shared<br />
concern around<br />
the lack of real<br />
pathways and decision-making<br />
by the Government at this<br />
stage.”<br />
“We’re looking for definitive<br />
measures that we need to meet<br />
but also local solutions,” he said.<br />
DECISION: A Government review into how water services are<br />
managed could see a more centralised system put in place<br />
but district councillors say <strong>Selwyn</strong> should continue to maintain<br />
its own water. <br />
Department of Internal<br />
Affairs three waters review<br />
director Richard Ward said it’s<br />
expected there will be greater<br />
certainty and clarity within the<br />
next month.<br />
“Once Cabinet has considered<br />
the report on recommendations<br />
and options,” he said.<br />
Cr Miller said there has been<br />
an “in-depth” study of <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
water standards and believes<br />
the district council is supplying<br />
“very high-quality water” to<br />
residents at a low cost.<br />
“It doesn’t take a rocket<br />
scientist to work out that if you<br />
become aggregated or part of a<br />
larger scheme, potentially the<br />
cost to ratepayers for supply of<br />
water could be increased,” Cr<br />
Miller said.<br />
Mr Ward said research “indicates<br />
many smaller councils<br />
face acute costs upgrading infrastructure”<br />
to meet standards.<br />
He said cost is an important<br />
factor and will be a “major<br />
2019<br />
ON THE DOMAIN LINCOLN 2 MARCH 2019<br />
consideration in future policy<br />
work on how to deliver a strong<br />
and sustainable three waters<br />
system.”<br />
Cr Miller said the district<br />
council is open to looking at<br />
suggestions to make its water<br />
supply better and safer, but<br />
also wants what is best for<br />
ratepayers.<br />
He said its next step is<br />
to discuss the issue with<br />
neighbouring councillors,<br />
such as the Ashburton and<br />
Waimakariri district councils.<br />
“They’re a similar size and<br />
have similar size infrastructure.<br />
Whether there are any synergies<br />
or any benefits from looking at<br />
some sort of amalgamation or<br />
shared services,” Cr Miller said.<br />
Mr Ward said the<br />
Government will make the final<br />
decision on the management of<br />
water, and the time frame will<br />
depend on the expected Cabinet<br />
decision over the next month.<br />
“But it is likely this will<br />
include a number of high-level<br />
options identified for further<br />
work,” Mr Ward said<br />
These will then be further<br />
discussed with councils and<br />
worked on through 2019.”<br />

Of Posies and<br />
Touchy Feely,<br />
for months and says she’s “really<br />
excited” for the show.<br />
Mrs Hollands isn’t new to the<br />
world of fashion, she owned the<br />
Cottage Costume Hire in Weedons<br />
for a decade, selling it last year.<br />
She’s also the head of the<br />
wardrobe team for CentreStage<br />

her diploma in floristry.<br />
Her Touchy Feely design is<br />
entered in the Sow’s Ear category<br />
of the competition, where<br />
designers are given the same<br />
materials to use.<br />
“I really like it because it<br />
means you all start from the<br />
same place and you all have the<br />
same stuff and you all use your<br />
own creativity to make something<br />
completely different,” Mrs<br />
Hollands said.<br />
Co-organiser Kim Strange<br />
said this year’s competition will<br />
be “that much more of a step-up<br />
from last year.”<br />
“We’re all really excited about<br />
it. The amount of tickets sold is<br />
huge so it’s been nice to see it’s<br />
providing an event that’s met a<br />
need,” Mrs Strange said.<br />
She said Saturday’s show is<br />
different to last year’s as it will<br />
have a raised stage, more lighting<br />
and sound and gold and<br />
silver tables.<br />
Those set to hit the catwalk<br />
range in age from six-years-old<br />
to models in their 70s.<br />
Mrs Strange said there will be<br />
a range of food and drinks for<br />
sale at the event including wine<br />
from company 27 Seconds. 27<br />

profits to Hagar, a charity which<br />

Mine noise prompts concerns<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
NOISE AT night from a large<br />
mine in Coalgate has prompted<br />
concerns from nearby residents.<br />
A Malvern Community<br />
Board report said that residents<br />
have noticed the Canterbury<br />
Coal Mine, located on Bush<br />
Gully Rd, is<br />
getting louder<br />
at night.<br />
But in the<br />
past year the<br />
district council<br />
has only<br />
received three<br />
Richard Tacon<br />
noise complaints,<br />
with<br />
all complaints<br />
investigated and no breaches<br />
identified.<br />
Whitecliffs Township Committee<br />
chairwoman Jodie<br />
Thompson said a lot of residents<br />
have expressed concern and it<br />
has been contacting noise control<br />
at the district council.<br />
She said she doesn’t mind<br />
the noise in the day but at<br />
night time she “hears crashing<br />
sounds.”<br />
“It disturbs the peaceful<br />
atmosphere of the place which<br />
is why most people move out<br />
here,” she said.<br />
The maximum noise level at<br />
NOISE: Residents living near the Canterbury Coal Mine are<br />
concerned they are hearing more noise at night. <br />
night is 70dBa.<br />
Bathurst Resources chief<br />
executive Richard Tacon said an<br />
assessment of likely operational<br />
noise effects was completed<br />
prior to night operations starting<br />
last year.<br />
“Now we are aware of community<br />
concern and locality,<br />
we have requested further operational<br />
noise monitoring be<br />
completed by an external noise<br />
consultant,” he said.<br />
But Coalgate chief fire officer<br />
Phillip Shaw said he lives close<br />
to the mine and doesn’t hear it.<br />
Glentunnel Township Committee<br />
chairman Reg Anderson<br />
said while it hasn’t affected him,<br />
it has affected other people in<br />
the township and needs to be<br />
addressed.<br />
One resident cannot sleep at<br />
night as a result of the noise, he<br />
said.<br />
It comes as a resource application<br />
from Bathurst Resources to<br />
increase its heavy vehicle movements<br />
is currently on hold.<br />
It lodged a resource consent<br />
to increase its coal truck and<br />
trailer movements to an average<br />
of 225 per week, with a maximum<br />
of up to 320 movements<br />
in January.<br />
District council planning<br />
manager Jesse Burgess said it is<br />
currently discussing the scope<br />
of the application with Bathurst<br />
representatives.<br />
Bathurst Resources Ltd<br />
domestic operations general<br />
manager Damian Spring said<br />
the application is a result of<br />
increased demand in the Canterbury<br />
region.<br />
It is required to meet projected<br />
sales demand for coal,<br />
including to supply to milk<br />
processing sites owned and operated<br />
by Fonterra and Synlait.<br />
Mr Spring said it has engaged<br />
with affected parties on Bush<br />
Gully Rd and Malvern Hills Rd.<br />
“The feedback we have got<br />
is from neutral to happy with<br />
what we are proposing,” he said.<br />
•Residents are encouraged<br />

Video on Kiwi Spitfire ace<br />
LEESTON’S Alastair Peart<br />
was in his late teens when<br />
he realised his father was a<br />
bit more than just a Spitfire<br />
pilot who served in<br />
World War 2.<br />
His father was<br />
Alan McGregor<br />
Peart. A New Zealand<br />
ace pilot known<br />
for his incredible<br />
battles and skills in<br />
the sky and recipient<br />
of the Distinguished<br />
Flying Cross.<br />
He died on September 5,<br />
aged 96.<br />
Flight Lieutenant<br />
Alastair<br />
Peart<br />
Peart’s first battle against<br />
incredible odds was early<br />
in the war when he faced<br />
12 German fighters by<br />
himself. The second<br />
was in Burma, 1944<br />
when he battled 20<br />
Japanese fighters for<br />
40min.<br />
When Mr Peart<br />
later served as<br />
a Special Air Service<br />
soldier he gained a<br />
“full appreciation” of<br />
what his father did.<br />
“It really dawned on me<br />
what dad had been through<br />
and it is still beyond my<br />
imagination,” he said.<br />
Mr Peart, alongside his<br />
mother Jennifer Peart and<br />
sister Judy Power share<br />
their stories of Flight<br />
Lieutenant Peart, New<br />
Zealand’s last Spitfire ace,<br />

Drink driving<br />
message<br />
gets through<br />
•From page 1<br />
Lincoln Club president Lynn<br />
Townsend said he had noticed<br />
a vast improvement since police<br />
spoke to patrons at The Famous<br />
Grouse Hotel last week. The club<br />
operates the hotel.<br />
Mr Townsend said he had also<br />
noticed an increase in the demand<br />
for the hotel’s two courtesy vans.<br />
Senior Constable Andy Williamson<br />
received a loud round of<br />
applause recently after warning<br />
patrons of the dangers of drink<br />
driving.<br />
“This hotel and others in<br />
the district will continue to be<br />
targeted by police. Police don’t<br />
want to apprehend and prosecute<br />
drunk drivers. We would rather<br />
prevent them from driving. However,<br />
we will do whatever we can<br />
to prevent unnecessary death and<br />
trauma on our roads. We make no<br />
apology for this.”<br />
•From page 1<br />
Miss Bell underwent six<br />
months of chemotherapy and<br />
radiation treatment before being<br />
given a clean bill of health.<br />
“That’s had an impact on who<br />
I am,” she said.<br />
Miss Bell says it was a “shock”<br />
losing her long hair and something<br />
her pupils also had to get<br />
used to.<br />
A learn to skate session last<br />
year saw the then 37-year-old<br />
take her first ride in the ambulance<br />
after she fell and broke her<br />
back.<br />
“I had watched lots of people<br />
hit the ground and get back up<br />
. . . I was finding it really hard<br />
to breathe and I started getting<br />
numbness in my hands and the<br />
pain wasn’t going,” she said.<br />
Miss Bell had “very limited”<br />
movement for six weeks and<br />
had to take a term-and-a-half<br />
off teaching to recover from the<br />
accident.<br />
It was a “bit of a blow” for<br />
Miss Bell, who had recently<br />
completed two half marathons<br />
and was enjoying getting into<br />
running.<br />
“I could still do the pin-up<br />
stuff which is part of what got<br />
me through it too,” she said.<br />
Miss Bell started dressing in<br />
vintage-inspired clothing about<br />
two years ago and says it’s had a<br />
positive impact on her life.<br />
“I’ve made lots of friends, I’ve<br />
learnt to style myself, I love the<br />
fashion and I feel really good<br />
about who I am and I’ve come a<br />
long way and this [the competition]<br />
is kind of my next step, my<br />
Local<br />

Sky is the limit for Harmony Belle<br />
FASHION: Rolleston School teacher Jade Bell in one of her<br />
vintage-style outfits.<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
next challenge,” she said.<br />
Although it’s her first time<br />
entering, Miss Bell watched the<br />
event last year and says she’s “so<br />
excited” to be a part of it this<br />
time.<br />
The competition will<br />
take place in Auckland on November<br />
3 and 4 as part<br />
of The Very Vintage Day Out.<br />
The event celebrates many<br />
elements of the early 1940s and<br />
late 1960s.<br />
The top 10 finalists will<br />
compete in four categories,<br />
day wear, beachwear, talent<br />
and evening wear, over the two<br />
days.<br />
Miss Bell plans to sing,<br />
accompanied by her partner<br />
John Wood on guitar, for the<br />
talent part of the competition.<br />
The top four finalists will then<br />
be selected and asked further<br />
questions before a winner is<br />
decided.<br />
Prizes, including vouchers<br />
and goody bags, will be given to<br />
the winner, runner-up, people’s<br />
choice and picture perfect.<br />

Leeston teen ready<br />
to tackle issues in<br />
Youth Parliament<br />
LEESTON’S Katelyn<br />
Twiss has been selected<br />
as <strong>Selwyn</strong>’s Youth MP for<br />
next year.<br />
The 16-year-old was<br />
chosen from seven finalists<br />
by a panel including<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> MP Amy Adams,<br />
Mayor Sam Broughton<br />
and district councillor<br />
Craig Watson.<br />
The finalists had to give<br />
a 5min presentation on<br />
local and national issues<br />
and then answer questions<br />
from the judges.<br />
Ms Adams said she<br />
is looking forward to<br />
working with Katelyn<br />
during her term as a Youth<br />
MP, which runs from<br />
March 1 until August 31.<br />
“Katelyn will be<br />
representing <strong>Selwyn</strong> at<br />
the Youth Parliament in<br />
Wellington on July 16 and<br />
17, and I am sure she will<br />
do a fantastic job,” she<br />
said.<br />
Ms Adams praised all of<br />
the finalists for having the<br />
courage to put themselves<br />
forward and present their<br />
opinions to the panel.<br />
“I was thoroughly<br />
impressed by the<br />
passion and knowledge<br />
which all of the finalists<br />
demonstrated in their<br />
presentations,” she said.<br />
“These are all young<br />
people who are motivated<br />
to make a difference in<br />
their communities and I<br />
commend them for their<br />
efforts.”<br />
Katelyn, who is a<br />
year 12 student at<br />
Ellesmere College, said<br />
she was very excited to<br />
have been chosen and was<br />
looking forward to the<br />
experience.<br />
She is already active<br />
in the community as a<br />
member of the <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
Youth Council and<br />
is a national leader<br />
for Students Against<br />
Dangerous Driving.<br />

in midst of rehearsals<br />
REHEARSALS ARE in<br />
full swing for CentreStage<br />
Rolleston as it prepares for<br />
its debut show, Joseph and<br />
the Amazing Technicolor<br />
Dreamcoat.<br />
The show will hit the<br />
stage next month at Rolleston<br />
School, which is set to<br />
be transformed into the<br />
land of Egypt, with a cast<br />
of 80 people.<br />
Joseph and the<br />
Amazing Technicolor<br />
Dreamcoat is celebrating<br />
its 50 th year so CentreStage<br />
Rolleston jumped at the<br />
chance to perform the<br />
well-known musical by<br />
Andrew Lloyd Webber and<br />
Tim Rice.<br />
Described as a rock disco,<br />
the show has won many<br />
awards over the years and<br />
audience members will<br />
delight in well known<br />
songs such as Any Dream<br />
Will Do and Close Every<br />
Door and even a surprise<br />

The creative team for the<br />
debut show consists of Phil<br />
Dean, Darren Weber and<br />
Anna Randall. The show<br />

Greater demand on public facilities<br />
Weedons<br />
Residents’<br />
Association<br />
secretary<br />
Gary Doyle<br />
writes about<br />
the district’s<br />
population<br />
increase and<br />
what it means for residents<br />
Growth in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> District<br />
is proceeding at a rate which<br />
prior to the 2010 earthquake<br />
would have been thought to be<br />
the stuff of an over-imaginative<br />
mind.<br />
While the influx of all these<br />
people has helped to create an atmosphere<br />
of prosperity with the<br />
ability to provide local employment<br />
it does have a cost.<br />
To the majority of us the first<br />
easily seen downside is the massive<br />
jump in rates.<br />
More people means a greater<br />
demand for more public facilities,<br />
these in turn drive a<br />
demand for high maintenance<br />
costs.<br />
So which is better, a lower population<br />
with fewer requirements<br />
and fewer job opportunities for<br />
the young and lower running<br />
costs or a larger population with<br />
higher costs but better facilities<br />
and job opportunities.<br />
PLANNING: Weedons Residents’ Association secretary Gary<br />
Doyle says small towns which were planned for the district<br />
changed following the September 4, 2010, earthquake. <br />
There is no easy solution, to<br />
make a thriving community you<br />
need people, this drives the need<br />
for providing the recreational/<br />
education/employment opportunities<br />
for them.<br />
Currently the District Plan is<br />
coming under the microscope<br />
again, and this needs to be carefully<br />
worked through to try and<br />
arrive at a solution for today and<br />
for the future.<br />
In the past plans had been<br />
drawn up to do this, however,<br />
the unforeseen happened, earthquakes.<br />
The results are that small<br />
townships that had been planned<br />
for, with easily managed populations<br />
have been put under unforeseen<br />
pressures.<br />
Past plans with a very long<br />
term plan to gradually increase<br />
the facilities were overtaken in<br />
a virtual blink of an eye. Now<br />
is the time to down with a far<br />
better grasp of what is going to<br />
be required for the future and do<br />
the planning.<br />
However, there is a drawback,<br />
the massive increase in population<br />
has placed as I said earlier a<br />
strain on resources.<br />
This can be overcome very<br />
quickly with huge increases in<br />
rates, a quick fix some would say,<br />
but for many on fixed incomes<br />
the financial burden may just be<br />
too much.<br />
Any community to be<br />
successful needs a good crosssection<br />
of age groups, and some<br />
of proposed increases could well<br />
cause considerable hardship for<br />
the elderly. To be fair, the council<br />
is going to be damned if they do<br />
and damned if they don’t.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
Justine Holmes responds<br />
to an article on the<br />
Gerald St pedestrian<br />
crossing<br />
I see the district council is<br />
going to potentially review<br />
the lighting for the pedestrian<br />
crossing on Gerald St outside<br />
the Famous Grouse Hotel in<br />
Lincoln.<br />
What also needs to be<br />
urgently reviewed is the street<br />
car parking directly next to the<br />
crossing. The Famous Grouse<br />
courtesy van is usually parked<br />
right next to the crossing<br />
(west side) making it virtually<br />
impossible for motorists<br />
travelling along Gerald St<br />
from west to east to see anyone<br />
standing at the crossing.<br />
It is especially bad for kids<br />
coming home from school – I<br />
see kids all the time having to<br />
basically edge themselves out<br />
into the middle of the road past<br />
the van in order for motorists to<br />
see them. Not good.<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> MP Amy Adam<br />
writes about <strong>Selwyn</strong>’s<br />
growing diversity and how<br />
its changed over time<br />
I ATTENDED CultureFest,<br />
along with my colleague<br />
Melissa Lee, the National<br />
Party spokeswoman for ethnic<br />
communities.<br />
This event was held at the<br />
Lincoln Event Centre, and<br />
was organised by the district<br />
council, in partnership with<br />
the Christchurch Multicultural<br />
Council.<br />
As has been the case in previous<br />
years, it was a very successful<br />
day, showcasing music and<br />
dance performances, arts and<br />
crafts and delicious food from a<br />
variety of different cultures.<br />
Over the past decade, <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
has been one of the fastest growing<br />
regions in New Zealand.<br />
Between 2008 and 2017 the<br />
population of <strong>Selwyn</strong> District<br />
grew by 55.2 per cent, which<br />
means an additional 21,100 people<br />
moved into the region. This is<br />
roughly the same as adding the<br />
population of the town of Ashburton,<br />
which is around 20,000,<br />
to <strong>Selwyn</strong>.<br />
While many of those people<br />
who have moved to <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
have come from suburban<br />
Amy Adams<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> MP<br />
BRIGHT: Kabaddi demonstration players at the CultureFest<br />
<strong>2018</strong>.<br />
Christchurch or from other<br />
regions of the South Island, we<br />
are also welcoming newcomers<br />
from around the globe.<br />
Historically, <strong>Selwyn</strong> has been<br />
less ethnically diverse than<br />
other regions around New<br />
Zealand, with over 90 per cent<br />
of our residents identifying as<br />
European, and this can make it<br />
more challenging for those from<br />
different backgrounds to feel at<br />
home here.<br />
However, we are seeing<br />
increasing diversity amongst<br />
our younger population with<br />
80 per cent of our school pupils<br />
here in <strong>Selwyn</strong> recorded as<br />
European, 10 per cent Maori,<br />
4.5 per cent Asian, 1.8 per cent<br />
Pacific Peoples and 1.2 per cent<br />
Middle Eastern, Latin American<br />
or African.<br />
For people coming to live in<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> from other countries and<br />
other cultural backgrounds, and<br />
for whom English is not a first<br />
language, I can only imagine<br />
how challenging it must be to<br />
adjust to life in a strange new<br />
place.<br />
However, I hope for those of<br />
you who have experienced this<br />
that you have felt warmly welcomed<br />
by the local community.<br />
From my own perspective it<br />
seems that here in <strong>Selwyn</strong> we<br />
do generally do a great job of<br />
welcoming newcomers from all<br />
backgrounds and helping people<br />
feel part of our communities.<br />
CultureFest is about celebrating<br />
our region’s growing<br />
diversity, learning about our<br />
neighbours and experiencing the<br />
amazing richness of culture in its<br />
broadest sense.<br />
This is one of my favourite<br />
events on the <strong>Selwyn</strong> calendar<br />
and I am sure that many others<br />
feel the same, so if you missed it<br />
this year, make sure you put it on<br />
your must-do list for next year.<br />

Backyard Critters<br />
Distinctive cobweb spiders<br />
Mike Bowie is an ecologist<br />
who specialises in<br />
entomology (insects<br />
and other invertebrates).<br />
Each week he<br />
introduces a<br />
new species<br />
found in his<br />
backyard at<br />
Lincoln. His<br />
column aims<br />
to raise public awareness<br />
of biodiversity, the variety<br />
of living things around<br />
us. Check out the full list<br />
of invertebrates found at<br />
http://naturewatch.org.<br />
nz/projects/backyardbiodiversity-bugs-inlincoln<br />
COBWEB SPIDERS are known<br />
as Theridiidae, the family that<br />
includes the poisonous katipo<br />
spiders.<br />
The most common species in<br />
this family is the native diamond<br />
comb-footed spider, Cryptachaea<br />
veruculata.<br />
It is believed that this species<br />
may have been a natural<br />
introduction by ballooning<br />
across the Tasman Sea on silk<br />
threads.<br />
Males and females have a<br />
body length of 2mm and 4mm<br />
SMALL: Pattern on its abdomen lends itself to the name of the<br />
diamond comb-footed spider.<br />
respectively, so are small<br />
spiders.<br />
As the name suggests, the<br />
spider has a distinctive diamond<br />
pattern on its abdomen.<br />
They make small, tangled webs<br />
on plants, buildings and walls.<br />
Webs may also contain their<br />
pinky-mauve egg sacs.<br />
They have also been found in<br />
artificial wooden refugia, called<br />
weta motels.<br />

Playcentre celebrates<br />
DUNSANDEL Playcentre is<br />
celebrating 50 years of learning<br />
and growing.<br />
The minutes of 1968, kept in<br />
a small, perfect notebook, in<br />
delicate and flowing script, note<br />
fundraising ideas of a cabaret<br />
night which raised $357.<br />
There were folk singers, Hawaii<br />
torch dancers and a teen’s<br />
dance for the cabaret which<br />
aimed to fundraise for equipment<br />
at the playcentre.<br />
They also detail congratulations<br />
on new births, that 63 gallons<br />
of beer was needed for the<br />
cabaret and that the Anglican<br />
Church had approved the use<br />
of the Sunday School hall for<br />
the playcentre at the rate of $1 a<br />
session.<br />
Sessions commenced, babies<br />
were born, roll numbers and<br />
days offered went up and down,<br />
office bearers changed hands<br />
and speakers were invited to do<br />
talks on progressive women,<br />
make-up and deportment and<br />
the role of adults with young<br />
children.<br />
In 1978 the playcentre moved<br />
to its current location on Irvines<br />
Rd with a Government subsidised<br />
purchase of a relocated<br />
prefab classroom.<br />
Now, with a roll of 12 and<br />
dedicated volunteers at the<br />
helm, its Monday sessions are<br />
buzzing, fresh and full of children<br />
and family learning and<br />
growing together.<br />
•All former and current<br />
members are invited<br />
to its 50th anniversary<br />
celebration on <strong>October</strong> 28<br />
from 2pm to 5pm at the<br />

Poppies mark history<br />
in Leeston<br />
Take action on distraction<br />
What kinds of distractions do you encounter while driving?<br />
There are many things that can distract you from driving safely –<br />
your passengers, eating food, talking on a hands-free phone, or<br />
taking your eyes off the road to look at something.<br />
A recent Ministry of Transport crash report showed that in 2016,<br />
diverted attention was identified as a contributing factor in a total of<br />
1,<strong>09</strong>7 crashes in New Zealand.<br />
These crashes resulted in 22 deaths and 210 serious injuries.<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> District Council Road Safety Coordinator Peter Daly says<br />
drivers need to take responsibility when driving and to ensure their<br />
eyes are always on the road.<br />
“Nobody ever thinks a crash is going to happen to them, until it<br />
happens,” he says.<br />
“The best advice anyone can have when driving is to just drive –<br />
leave the cellphone, food, coffee and any other distractions until<br />
the car is turned off. If we are distracted when someone else makes<br />
a mistake in front of us, we have far less chance to avoid being<br />
involved in a crash or incident.”<br />
Another salute to <strong>Selwyn</strong>’s past has been added to the streets around the cenotaph at Leeston.<br />
As part of the Poppy Places campaign, a poppy has been added to the signs for Gallipoli Street<br />
and Messines Street, which border the township’s landmark cenotaph.<br />
Both streets trace their origins to the Leeston war memorial, erected in 1924 to commemorate<br />
soldiers from Ellesmere County who lost their lives during the First World War.<br />
Many Territorial soldiers from the Ellesmere area volunteered to serve in the New Zealand<br />
Expeditionary Force when it was established at the outbreak of the First World War in August<br />
1914. It was these initial volunteers, and those who followed in the reinforcement contingents in<br />
1915, who fought during the Gallipoli campaign.<br />
The battle of Messines in June 1917 was one of the NZ Division’s greatest successes on the<br />
Western Front, in that it achieved all of its objectives in the attack battle plan. However, the<br />
division sustained 3,700 casualties, including 700 killed. Most likely there would have been<br />
soldiers from Ellesmere County involved.<br />
Council Asset Engineer Transportation, Mark Chamberlain, says the historic value of the poppy,<br />
street name and location made the addition an easy decision.<br />
“As a growing district it is important to remember the people who have come before us and the<br />
sacrifices they made.<br />
“There are a number of families still in the Ellesmere area who would have had family members<br />
fight in the First World War, and this gesture is about helping to maintain the knowledge of what<br />
our forefathers went through,” Mr Chamberlain says.<br />
The cenotaph and the naming of Gallipoli Street and Messines Street have provided the people of<br />
the district with a permanent focal point to remember and commemorate the sacrifice members of<br />
their community made during the campaign.<br />
Information on the Poppy Places Trust can be found on their website – poppyplaces.nz – with<br />
information on Gallipoli Street, Messines Street and the other sites around New Zealand.<br />
Out with the old, in with the new<br />
Nearly 250 new LED lights have been installed on streets around <strong>Selwyn</strong>, as the district moves away<br />
from older street lights to brighter, more efficient technology.<br />
Across the district the Council is in the process of replacing 5,800 existing lights with the new LED models.<br />
The replacement work started in the middle of <strong>2018</strong>, and is expected to take three years to complete.<br />
Support from the NZTransport Agency has been a key factor, financing 85% of the $3.3 million project.<br />
Normally NZTA funds 50% of local roading projects, but wanted to work alongside local councils to help<br />
them switch over to LED lighting.<br />
The changeover started around Leeston, as its lighting stock is among the oldest in the district.<br />
Asset Manager Transportation Andrew Mazey says some of the lights in Leeston have been in place for<br />
more than 50 years.<br />
“We believe that some of the lights in the area haven’t been replaced since they were originally put in,<br />
and may date back to World War II”, Mr Mazey says.<br />
The new lights are being installed in stages, with older settlements around <strong>Selwyn</strong> taking priority, due to<br />
the age of the lighting infrastructure.<br />
Mr Mazey says Lincoln and Rolleston will be the last areas to have the upgrades.<br />
“With a substantial number of new subdivisions in Lincoln and Rolleston, the two townships have had a<br />
head start in the switch over, as new subdivisions have to install LED lighting.<br />
The new lights offer significantly cheaper running and maintenance costs.<br />
Capacity building workshops<br />
Are you a community group, club or not-for-profit looking to recruit<br />

clubs as a part of the Capacity Building Initiative. These workshops<br />

Strong week<br />
for Canty<br />
Country sides<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
THE CANTERBURY Country<br />
under-18 rugby team had their<br />
best ever finish to a South Island<br />
tournament on Saturday.<br />
The under-18s finished fourth,<br />
capping off a good South Island<br />
tournament week for Country agegroup<br />
teams with the under-16s<br />
winning the plate final in Nelson<br />
and the under-48kg team crowned<br />
back-to-back champions.<br />
The under-48kg team went<br />
unbeaten at their tournament last<br />
week, taking down Nelson 31-5 in<br />
the decider at Belfast.<br />
The under-18 team lost their<br />
third v fourth play-off to Tasman<br />
33-26 at Kaiapoi. They had a 32-all<br />
draw with Canterbury Metro Black<br />
and a 46-41 win over Tasman to<br />
make the top four.<br />
Under-18 coach Glen Dunseath<br />
said in spite of limited training, the<br />
squad did an excellent job.<br />
“Country rugby at this agegroup<br />
has had a heck of a year with<br />
Rangiora and Lincoln (Combined)<br />
doing so well in the UC Championship<br />
and us making top four for<br />
the first time,” he said.<br />
“With 11 of the squad returning<br />
next year, hopefully this is something<br />
we can build on.”<br />
Dunseath said all of the agegroup<br />
results suggested country<br />
rugby is in a strong place at most<br />
age levels.<br />

of hard work put in by people<br />
behind the scenes.<br />
Mr Knowler was named<br />
volunteer of the year at the<br />
Ellesmere Rugby Sub Union<br />
awards night.<br />
He said the award was a<br />
massive honour and recognition<br />
of how far the club has come<br />
thanks to a number of people<br />
over the past five years.<br />
“I originally wasn’t going to<br />
go but my wife said that I should<br />
and as they read out the award, I<br />
sat there and realised it had been<br />
a bit of set up,” he said.<br />
“I was very humbled to receive<br />
it.”<br />
He has been part of the club’s<br />
back room since 2003 after<br />
moving to Prebbleton.<br />
“I only had half a season<br />
playing low level senior rugby for<br />
them in 1999,” he said<br />

In 2004, he started coaching<br />
at the junior level. By 2007, he<br />
was the junior club captain and<br />
eventually made his way to vicepresident<br />
before taking over the<br />
top job at the 2014 annual general<br />
meeting.<br />
“We’ve always had strong<br />
junior numbers but there were<br />
tough times at the senior level,”<br />
he said. “Four or five years ago,<br />
we were seriously considering<br />
whether we could continue to<br />
have a division one team.<br />
“Fortunately we had guys who<br />
stepped up and prevented that<br />
from happening, and slowly but<br />
surely, we were able to create<br />
some depth. And this past season<br />
making the playoffs has shown<br />
we were on the right track.”<br />
Mr Knowler said the senior<br />
rugby culture was something<br />
the entire club had tried to<br />
improve.<br />
“We’ll cook them a meal each<br />
week and sit down and have a<br />
chat with them,” he said,<br />
“It’s been great to be able to<br />
sit with our players and find out<br />
who they are on a more personal<br />
level.”<br />
Mr Knowler said he wants to<br />
ensure the club remains in good<br />
stead ahead of its centenary<br />
which will be held over Easter<br />
weekend next year.<br />

Darfield beat Cheviot<br />
in opening round of<br />
one-day competition<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
DARFIELD MADE the most<br />
of bowler-friendly, early season<br />
conditions to beat defending<br />
champions Cheviot on Saturday<br />
by four runs in the opening<br />
round of the CRV Ambreed<br />
country premier one-day<br />
competition.<br />
Darfield were able to defend a<br />
meagre 126 on a day in which the<br />
ball dominated the bat in all four<br />
matches.<br />
Southbrook cruised to an easy<br />
nine-wicket win over Kaiapoi,<br />
chasing down the 53 runs they<br />
required for victory in just<br />
the 12th over at Southbrook<br />
Domain.<br />
Oxford’s lower order held their<br />
nerve to beat Sefton by three<br />
wickets, chasing down their<br />
target of 126 with 33 balls to<br />
spare at Dudley Park.<br />
Weedons cruised to their<br />
target of 89 with seven wickets<br />
remaining after they skittled<br />
Leeston-Southbridge for just 88.<br />
At Darfield, Toby Kars’ 28 not<br />
out and 21 from opener Nick<br />

Jenkins proved to be invaluable<br />
contributions for the hosts in<br />
tough conditions. Darfield right<br />
arm fast bowler Chris Warner<br />
took 4/19. Cheviot spinners<br />
Harry Fitzpatrick (4/17) and<br />
Scott Burnett (4/18) did the bulk<br />
of the damage.<br />
Cheviot appeared to be<br />
cruising to the target but lost<br />
their last eight wickets for 56<br />
runs and were bowled out a<br />
boundary short of the target.<br />
In Rangiora; it was Jeremy<br />
Benton who led Oxford to their<br />
three-wicket win.<br />
The spinner took 3/23 before<br />
producing a composed 54 to<br />
guide his team home.<br />
Premier newcomers Kaiapoi<br />
were sent back to the drawing<br />
board with plenty to think about<br />
after the Southbrook pace attack<br />
had a field day, tearing through<br />
them for just 52.<br />
Luan Blom (4/17) and Sam<br />

destroyers.<br />

SHOT: The Ellesmere College senior girls basketball team had their best ever result at a national<br />
competition on Thursday.<br />

Ellesmere College earns silver<br />
on court at national tournament<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
THE ELLESMERE College<br />
senior girls basketball team<br />
produced their best ever result<br />
at the national tournament on<br />
Thursday, finishing second in<br />
Palmerston North,<br />
They were the only South<br />
Island school across all the<br />
grades to earn a medal during<br />
tournament week.<br />
The team ended up losing the<br />
final 91-70 to Manukau.<br />
That match came after a<br />
pulsating semi-final against Te<br />
Aroha College which Ellesmere<br />
won 59-57.<br />
Coach Josh Thompson said<br />
experienced players like Paris<br />
Nurse and Megan Ellis helped<br />
steady the team at crucial<br />
moments.<br />
“You need that kind of<br />
experience in tournament<br />
basketball,” he said.<br />
“Those girls have all been there<br />
multiple times and it helps our<br />
younger players cope with the<br />
week at the end of what has been<br />
a pretty long season.”<br />
Ellesmere College also finished<br />
second at the single A South<br />
Island tournament for smaller<br />
schools last month.<br />
Thompson said he was<br />
delighted with how his team<br />
responded to the pressure against<br />
Te Aroha College but they<br />
could not match it against the<br />
height of the opposition in the<br />
final.<br />
“When one of the players is<br />
six foot three (1.92m), it makes it<br />
tough,” he said.<br />
“We tried to do what we could<br />
to combat it, but it didn’t quite<br />
happen.”<br />
Thompson said in spite of<br />
four year 13 pupils leaving the<br />
team, there were seven players in<br />
years 9 and 10 who attended the<br />
tournament.<br />
He hopes this will ensure any<br />
rebuilding of the team would<br />
be swift so they can remain<br />
competitive next year.<br />
Milligan eyes up<br />
endurance series<br />
after tough Bathurst<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
PREBBLETON’S Jack Milligan<br />
has set his sights on the final<br />
round of the South<br />
Island endurance<br />
series at the weekend<br />
after a frustrating<br />
three races at Mt<br />
Panorama.<br />
Milligan was racing<br />
in the Australian<br />
Toyota 86 series at<br />
Bathurst from Friday<br />
to Sunday, but had no<br />
luck at all in spite of<br />
having a car capable<br />
of quick times.<br />
He was held up during his<br />
qualifying lap on Friday, which<br />
meant he qualified for race one<br />
Jack Milligan<br />
SELWYN TIMES<br />
of three in the middle of the<br />
pack. That race was abandoned<br />
on Saturday after a big crash on<br />
the opening lap.<br />
Milligan had more<br />
luck in race two, working<br />
his way up from 16th on<br />
the grid to finish ninth.<br />
The final race was<br />
under the safety car<br />
for all but one lap and<br />
with the limited time he<br />
finished eighth.<br />
“We’ve gained more<br />
valuable experience at<br />
this iconic track which<br />
is valuable moving<br />
forward,” he said.<br />
“We had the speed but<br />
couldn’t maximise it with the<br />
laps under safety car.”<br />
FOCUS: Jack Milligan has turned his attention to the South<br />
Island endurance series in Timaru at the weekend after<br />
having no luck at Bathurst.<br />

Sewlyn Sounds<br />
Little River Band to headline festival<br />
WELL KNOWN for classic<br />
songs Cool Change, Lonesome<br />
Loser and Take it Easy on Me,<br />
Little River Band will return to<br />
New Zealand to headline <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
Sounds on March 2.<br />
The band is known for a string<br />
of instantly recognisable hits<br />
and was described by Eagles<br />
founding member Glenn Frey<br />
as “the best singing band in the<br />
world.”<br />
Total worldwide album sales<br />
and digital downloads of the<br />
band’s music now top 30 million<br />
and the group was the very first<br />
to have had top 10 hits for six<br />
consecutive years.<br />
It will be the first time the<br />
current line-up has toured here<br />
since the introduction of new<br />
rhythm and lead guitarist Colin<br />
Whinnery in February.<br />
Whinnery, of Nashville,<br />
brings a new voice and outlook<br />
to the band’s rhythm section<br />
while sharing lead vocal duties<br />
with the longest standing band<br />
member Wayne Nelson.<br />
Currently on a busy tour<br />
schedule in the United States, the<br />
band will only have a week break<br />
between a February 22 show in<br />
California and <strong>Selwyn</strong> Sounds.<br />
Little River Band’s next<br />
international tour after <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
Sounds is set for Germany late<br />
HITS: Little River Band will play at <strong>Selwyn</strong> Sounds on Saturday, March 2, at Lincoln Domain.<br />
next year.<br />
Originally formed in<br />
Melbourne in 1975, the band’s<br />
sound quickly became popular.<br />
Within eight months of forming,<br />
Little River Band had three<br />
Australian top 20 singles and<br />
two top 10 albums.<br />
They first travelled to the US in<br />
1976 and are now based there.<br />
The line-up of members has<br />
changed many times over the<br />
years and is now completely<br />
different from the original<br />
group. The last original member<br />
to leave was Derek Pellicci in the<br />
1990s.<br />
The last Australian member,<br />
Greg Hind, left the group earlier<br />
this year and was replaced by<br />
Whinnery.<br />
Nelson fronts the band on lead<br />
vocals and bass, supported by<br />
keyboardist Chris Marion, lead<br />
guitarist Rich Herring, drummer<br />
Ryan Ricks and newcomer<br />
Whinnery.<br />
Over their last few shows, the<br />
band has often opened with It’s<br />
A Long Way There before closing<br />
the set with crowd-favourite<br />
Lonesome Loser.<br />
The band was inducted into<br />
the Australian Recording<br />
Industry Association hall of<br />
fame at the 18th annual ARIA<br />
Music Awards in 2004 and Cool<br />
Change is rated as one of the top<br />
30 Australian songs of all time.<br />

JONES ROAD<br />
ROLLESTON<br />
Business growth prompts<br />
move to bigger premises<br />
After a successful six years growing<br />
their Jones Road Auto business, owners<br />
Nigel and Lisa Fleck are moving to<br />
larger premises.<br />
“With the growth of Rolleston<br />
township our business has expanded<br />
and we have now outgrown the site at<br />
Jones Road,” Lisa says.<br />
“We have bought the land and are<br />
building new premises on the corner of<br />
Hoskyns Rd and Iport Rd. The building<br />
will be nearly twice the size of our<br />
current premises – it’s the next step in<br />
our business and we are really excited<br />
about it.<br />
“The workshop will be equipped with<br />
new technology and there will also be<br />
a lot more car parking space, so our<br />
customers will be very happy.”<br />
Construction of the new building is<br />
underway and they expect to be open<br />
for business there by the end of this<br />
year, or early next year, Lisa says, and<br />
while they will be in different location,<br />
the name Jones Road Auto will stay the<br />
same.<br />
The expansion of the business also<br />
means new staff are needed, and they<br />
are on the lookout for fully trained<br />
mechanics to join the team.<br />
Offering the full range of mechanical<br />
servicing and repair work on all makes<br />
and models of vehicle, Jones Road Auto<br />
is consistently rated as one of the topperforming<br />
workshops in New Zealand<br />
by the Motor Trade Association.<br />
Lisa says their high rating is due<br />
to the quality of the workmanship<br />
provided at Jones Road Auto.<br />
“We have excellent staff who do a<br />
great job for our customers,” she says.<br />
Jones Road Auto is also strongly<br />
committed to the local community, and<br />
each year the business sponsors the<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> Motor Fest. Last year, the event<br />

Haval H9 engineered for life in the rough<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
• By Ross Kiddie<br />
I LIKE to see vehicles used for<br />
the purpose for which they were<br />
designed.<br />
When I got home from picking<br />
up a Haval H9 I crawled underneath<br />
to have a look at its suspension<br />
and driveline design. While<br />
I was under there I noticed that<br />
the evaluation car had been well<br />
used, there were a few battle scars,<br />
obvious signs it had done a lot of<br />
off-road work.<br />
That’s a good thing, for the<br />
Haval H9 is a definite off-road<br />
vehicle, it has high ground clearance<br />
(206mm), a live rear axle<br />
located by coil springs, a low<br />
ratio transfer case, and several<br />
electronic drive modes to cater<br />
for any loose surface track – mud,<br />
snow and sand. There is also a<br />
genuine low ratio for when the<br />
going gets really tricky.<br />
This is all packaged in what<br />
Haval call an All-Terrain Control<br />
System, it can be manipulated<br />
through the turn of a consolemounted<br />
dial, and when it’s time<br />
to head home from the high<br />
country jaunt there’s even a sport<br />
mode so that highway performance<br />
is maximised.<br />
There is a lot kit in the H9, and<br />
if you are thinking that it rivals<br />
say, Toyota’s Land Cruiser and<br />
Prado, you’d be right, there are<br />
many similarities, even to some<br />
of the luxury four-wheel-drive<br />
brands such as those out of the<br />
Land-Rover stable. But instead of<br />
an outlay of over six figures, the<br />
Chinese-built Haval H9 lists from<br />
just $43,990.<br />
The evaluation car was a highspec<br />
Ultra model, and it sits at<br />
$47,990. In terms of specification<br />
for that price it is simply daunting,<br />
it wants for nothing and<br />
there is a definite feeling of luxury<br />
through and through. There is so<br />
much kit on it that comprehensive<br />
detailing is impossible. But<br />
it’s fair to say that if you want a<br />
large seven-seat sport utility vehicle<br />
that has all the bells and whistles,<br />
then H9 won’t disappoint.<br />
Incidentally, Haval is a company<br />
which is part of the giant Great<br />
HAVAL H9: Large sport utility vehicle from China.<br />
Wall conglomerate,<br />
There’s a short off-road track I often<br />
use for serious four-wheel-drive<br />
vehicles, so I presented it to the H9,<br />
but because the weather was dry<br />
and the track hard there was little<br />
challenge. At the end of the track<br />
there is a steep incline, but it, too,<br />
presented little difficulty.<br />
Even though the H9 is capable<br />
in those conditions, it also imparts<br />
a serious feeling of luxury<br />
and comfort. The suspension –<br />
double wishbone up front – has<br />
soft spring and damper rates, any<br />
bumps are fully absorbed, and the<br />
rugged nature of the rear is a well<br />
proven formula that if a live axle<br />
is located well you get both good<br />
articulation and body control.<br />
Up front the H9 is driven by<br />
a 2-litre, four-cylinder petrol<br />
engine. While it is far from the<br />
norm in a big sport utility vehicle,<br />
don’t be thinking it is underwhelming.<br />
It is a turbocharged<br />
unit with a high power output of<br />
180kW. More importantly, it has<br />
a solid 350Nm of torque available<br />
all of the way from 1800rpm to<br />
4500rpm. Coupled to an eightspeed<br />
automatic transmission,<br />
the combination provides a solid<br />
form of energy all through the rev<br />
band, there’s never a point where<br />
you think it is not working as well<br />
as it should.<br />
Sure, acceleration off the mark<br />
isn’t rapid, a standstill 100km/h<br />
time of 11.3 sec is largely due to<br />
the weight of the big seven-seater,<br />
it’s quite tubby at 2230kg. All that<br />
aside, when the H9 gets rolling<br />
and that turbocharger is boosting<br />
strongly there is good mid-range<br />
urgency, a 80km/h to 120km/h<br />
overtaking time of 6.3sec can be<br />
expected.<br />
It also travels smoothly, the H9<br />
road manners are impeccable,<br />
ride comfort is strong, and when<br />
it comes time to negotiating<br />
those tricky high-country corners<br />
there is definite steering feel and<br />
reasonable accuracy.<br />
The H9 is tall at 1.9m, and<br />
there’s no way the suspension<br />
could totally combat body movement,<br />
gravitational forces are arrested<br />
as well as the chassis design<br />
will allow, but you do notice there’s<br />
a lot of vehicle to get through a<br />
corner.<br />
Huge Kumho tyres (265/60 x<br />
18in) do their bit to maintain direction,<br />
which helps, and it’s fair<br />
to say the big H9 isn’t disgraced<br />
handling-wise, it would compete<br />
fairly with its competition.<br />
The New Zealand distributors<br />
for Haval claim a 10.9-litre per<br />
100km/h (26mpg) combined<br />
cycle rating for the H9.<br />
That figure sits well with the<br />
fuel usage readout on the dash<br />
display during my time with the<br />
evaluation car, it was showing<br />
around 12l/100km (24mpg) when<br />
I took the car back to the dealership.<br />
That, along with an instantaneous<br />
reading of 7.6l/100km<br />
• Price – Haval H9 Ultra,<br />
$47,990<br />
• Dimensions – Length,<br />
4856mm; width,<br />
1926mm; height,<br />
1900mm<br />
• Configuration – Fourcylinder,<br />
four-wheeldrive,<br />
1968cc, 180kW,<br />
350Nm, eight-speed<br />
automatic.<br />
• Performance –<br />
0-100km/h, 11.2sec<br />
• Fuel usage – 10.9l/100km<br />
(37mpg) at 100m/h, would suggest<br />
economical motoring can be<br />
achieved.<br />
On the subject of figures, Haval<br />
also claim a 2500kg braked trailer<br />
tow rating.<br />
The H9 was the second car of<br />
two from Haval that I have had<br />
back-to-back. Both it and the H2<br />
left a good impression in terms of<br />
build quality and overall performance.<br />
However, most of all, the entire<br />
range reeks of affordability, the<br />
brand is a way to get into a new<br />
sport utility vehicle without<br />
breaking the bank.<br />
Kiwis tend to buy on price, and<br />
that being the case I can see the<br />
nameplate going from strength to<br />
strength here.<br />

Time of year to think tomatoes<br />
• By Rachel Vogan<br />
IT’S THAT time of year again,<br />
tomato time.<br />
Each year when I come to<br />
share my tips and tricks on my<br />
favourite crop I come across<br />
things I didn’t know. Like, did<br />
you know that the first tomatoes<br />
in Europe were yellow varieties?<br />
Over time breeders crosspollinated<br />
tomatoes to breed red<br />
cultivars.<br />
Anyway, now that most of the<br />
frosts have packed up, and the<br />
days and nights are considerably<br />
warmer, tomatoes can be planted.<br />
If you live in a pocket where the<br />
odd late frost can appear this<br />
month, hold off planting yours<br />
for a few weeks – unless they are<br />
going into pots or tubs, then you<br />
can tuck them somewhere warm<br />
if need be.<br />
Garden centres are jam-packed<br />
with plants in all shapes and<br />
sizes. Small seedlings are in<br />
punnets, priced up between $4<br />
and $5 each, or there are plenty as<br />
individual plants, varying in price<br />
depending on size and whether<br />
or not they have been grafted. A<br />
grafted tomato has a phenomenal<br />
growth rate and generally<br />
produces a larger plant, therefore<br />
more tomatoes. You don’t need to<br />
plant as many grafted tomatoes<br />
because they produce more fruit.<br />
THE BASICS<br />
Sun, sun & more sun<br />
If you cannot find a spot in full<br />
sun away from blustery winds, you<br />
can forget about growing<br />
a decent crop. All-day sun will<br />
produce the best crop; a few hours<br />
in the shade is okay, but they need<br />
at least half a day in full sun.<br />
SOIL MATTERS<br />
When planting in the ground,<br />
blend in compost or tomato mix<br />
first. This enables the soil to hold<br />
on to more moisture. At this time<br />
I blend in my tomato fertiliser,<br />
too, then water the soil well. If<br />
you can, do this a week before<br />
you put the plants in the ground.<br />
FOOD FIRST<br />
Tomatoes are greedy beggars;<br />
TANGY: Make sure to give your tomatoes plenty of support.<br />
they just love food, particularly<br />
tomato food which is blended<br />
to promote healthy roots, strong<br />
flower formation and fruit<br />
development. This specialty<br />
fertiliser is like a multi-vitamin for<br />
tomatoes and does not contain as<br />
much nitrogen as general fertilisers<br />
do. Too much nitrogen in the soil<br />
promotes more leaves as opposed<br />
to flowers, which is not what we<br />
want in tomatoes or other fruit<br />
crops such as chillies, eggplants or<br />
zucchini. A bag of tomato food will<br />
last you a season or two.<br />
TUBS, TROUGHS &<br />
PLANTERS<br />
Tomatoes are a good option for<br />
growing in pots and containers.<br />
Big is best when it comes to the<br />
size of container, as they suck<br />
up water and nutrients at rate of<br />
knots. Therefore, the plant needs<br />
to be able to develop a large root<br />
system to supports its growth<br />
habit. The potting mix needs to<br />
be top notch, too, with plenty of<br />
fertiliser and an ability to hold<br />
onto ample amounts of water.<br />
Suppliers make it easy and make<br />
specific tomato mixes, which<br />
you’ll find easily in the shops. If<br />
you wanted to make your own,<br />
blend equal parts of compost,<br />
well-rotted manure and grit for<br />
the base, then work in tomato<br />
fertiliser prior to planting. The<br />
risk with homemade mixes are<br />
weeds and the potential that they<br />
can ‘heat up’ if the compost or<br />
manure isn’t fully mature.<br />
SUPPORT<br />
Most tomatoes require staking<br />
to support the stem, which will<br />
carry the weight of the crop as<br />
it develops. Staking also helps<br />
keep the fruit off the ground.<br />
New dwarf and ground-covering<br />
varieties don’t need this extra<br />
support, however. Choose a<br />
big fat stake or use a couple of<br />
bamboo canes.<br />
HOW TO GROW TOMATOES<br />
IN A STRAW BALE<br />
This season, as I have a limited<br />
amount of soil space in which to<br />
grow tomatoes, I have decided to<br />
grow a few in pea-straw bales. A<br />
couple of gardening friends do it<br />
and they suggested I try it. So far<br />
so good.<br />
1. Select your sunny tomotogrowing<br />
spot, bearing in mind<br />
that once the bales become wet<br />
they are not that easy to move.<br />
2. Hydrate the bale of straw.<br />
This takes about<br />
a week of watering it once a day.<br />
3. Sit the bale on its side and<br />
remove about<br />
10 handfuls of straw from the<br />
centre of the bale to make a hole,<br />
leaving the sides intact. Combine<br />
tomato mix and tomato fertiliser<br />
and put this into the hole you<br />
have created.<br />
4. Water and leave overnight to<br />
dry out.<br />
5. The following morning, plant<br />
your tomato – and, if you like,<br />
some companions such<br />
as parsley and calendula.<br />
Mine has been growing for a<br />
month now, tucked up next to<br />
the barn in which I live. It looks<br />
healthy and is forming flowers<br />
and setting fruit, so fingers<br />
crossed it works. I am going to<br />
try growing pumpkins using this<br />
method, too!<br />
CROP FAILURE<br />
When things go wrong you can<br />
normally attribute it with a few<br />
main things:<br />
Stress, through a lack of<br />
hydration, is the cause of most<br />
of the problems with tomatoes.<br />
Once plants wilt and begin to<br />
collapse numerous pests and<br />
diseases can and will attack a<br />
weak plant. Hence water is a<br />
lifeline for tomatoes. The trick is<br />
to water them deeply once or<br />
twice a week, rather than a<br />
little every day, especially when<br />
planted in the ground. In pots<br />
and containers, they will dry<br />
out quicker, but in the ground,<br />
you want to encourage the roots<br />
to bury themselves deeply into<br />
the cooler earth where water<br />
is more available. Shallow or<br />
light watering only encourages<br />
the feeder roots to stay near the<br />
surface where they often get burnt<br />
when the soil heats up in the sun.<br />
Poor plant nutrient is the<br />
other main cause of problems.<br />
If you expect your tomatoes to<br />
be athletes in the garden, and<br />
perform at their best, you need<br />
to feed them on a regular basis,<br />
especially when they are being<br />
grown in tubs and containers.<br />

Buying a second home<br />
should you sell first or buy first?<br />
When it comes to upsizing or downsizing a property,<br />
homeowners are faced with a big decision – is it better to<br />
sell the existing home first, or buy the new place first?<br />
Real Estate Authority Chief Executive<br />
Kevin Lampen-Smith says there’s no<br />
‘right’ way to tackle it, but it’s important<br />
for homeowners to think carefully about<br />
their appetite for risk. Both options<br />
come with pros and cons, and their own<br />
unique set of challenges and pressures.<br />
“Buying first provides the luxury<br />
of time, meaning it’s possible to hunt<br />
for homes without a settlement date<br />
looming on the horizon. A buyer is<br />
able to consider as many houses as they<br />
like, move at their own pace and keep<br />
searching until they find the property<br />
that’s right for them and their family,”<br />
Lampen-Smith explains.<br />
While time might be on your side,<br />
your finances might not be. To secure<br />
the new home, buyers will need to come<br />
up with the funds for a deposit, which<br />
might be tricky if equity is tied up in the<br />
existing property. Buying first means<br />
there are suddenly double the bills to<br />
pay, including home insurance, rates<br />
and utility bills, as well as absorbing the<br />
cost of bridge financing in order to pay<br />
two mortgages.<br />
“The extra financial strain<br />
can sometimes mean sellers<br />
pressure themselves into<br />
setting a modest listing price<br />
for their existing house or<br />
accepting a lower offer, just<br />
to seal the deal quickly,”<br />
Lampen-Smith says.<br />
On the flip side, selling<br />
first can give homeowners a<br />
much clearer picture of their<br />
financial situation. Once<br />
the existing home is sold, you’ll know<br />
exactly how much cash you have to play<br />
with and what you can afford to buy.<br />
“However, once an offer has been<br />
accepted on the current home, the clock<br />
starts ticking towards settlement day.<br />
Some buyers then feel added pressure<br />
to make an offer on a home that doesn’t<br />
exactly fit their needs or wishlist,<br />
because they’re so focused on finding a<br />
new place to move into,”<br />
To avoid this, Lampen-Smith suggests<br />
negotiating a long settlement period on<br />
the existing home, to allow enough time<br />
to find a new property. However, this<br />
isn’t always possible, so homeowners<br />
should consider what their plan B will<br />
be. In a tight rental market, it can be<br />
very challenging to find short-term<br />
accommodation, which is why many<br />
turn to friends or family. It’s also<br />
important to consider the added costs of<br />
moving household belongings twice and<br />
paying for a storage unit.<br />
There are pros and cons to both<br />
approaches but homeowners can lighten<br />
the load by ensuring all their ducks are<br />
in a row.<br />
“Speak to your bank or a mortgage<br />
advisor to get your finances in order<br />
and then build your support crew. For<br />
example, you’re going to need legal<br />
advice, a licensed real estate agent to sell<br />
your property, an insurer and a building<br />
inspector,” Lampen-Smith suggests.<br />
However, as your home is likely to<br />
be your biggest asset, it’s important to<br />
prepare for some hiccups along the way<br />
and have time or extra funds set aside<br />
to deal with these. Building a strong<br />
support crew of qualified professionals<br />
will ensure you have the advice and<br />
guidance you need at each stage of the<br />
process.

Checklist for selling<br />
your home<br />
Make small fixes<br />
Inspect your home with a buyer’s eyes,<br />
and correct the flaws that are most<br />
egregious (if affordable) or can be<br />
relatively easily fixed—from repairing<br />
cracks in the walkways to repainting<br />
dingy walls or oiling creaky hinges.<br />
Select the best real estate agent<br />
For a commission, an agent will take care<br />
For Lease<br />
Ready your home for open days<br />
of many details you may not want to be<br />
Hide pocketable valuables, display fresh<br />
bothered with (placing ads, fielding calls,<br />
flowers or bowls of fruit, bake a batch of<br />
making signs, etc.) and bring experience<br />
cookies for the homey smell, open the<br />
to the table. To find a good one, ask<br />
drapes, keep pets out of sight.<br />
friends and relatives, then interview<br />
several candidates.<br />
Set a price<br />
A real estate agent will give you a market<br />
analysis free of charge or commitment.<br />
Ask a few to get a broader picture of the<br />
market. Check out<br />
comparable listings<br />
yourself in the real<br />
estate section of<br />
your newspaper or<br />
on websites. Then<br />
decide whether you<br />
want a quick, easy<br />
sale or the highest<br />
possible price.<br />
Clean & declutter<br />
Weed out excess<br />
furniture,<br />
knicknacks, and<br />
“stuff ”—toss it,<br />
donate it, give<br />
it away, sell it at a garage sale, or put<br />
it into storage—so the house seems<br />
more spacious and buyers can imagine<br />
themselves in it.<br />
Stay vigiliant about maintenance<br />
Keep the lawn mowed, shrubs trimmed,<br />
gardens weeded, rooms spotless and<br />
clutter-free.<br />
Decide whether to do your own<br />
building inspection<br />
It may save you time, especially with<br />
older homes, to identify—and potentially<br />
solve—problems your buyer’s inspection<br />
will discover later.<br />

Your guide to Show Homes & New Sections<br />
in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> District<br />
Style with practicality<br />
Many innovative<br />
features are apparent in<br />
Hallmark Homes’ new<br />
Faringdon showhome.<br />
Sharing its name with the famous<br />
Wakatipu trout fishing river, The Lochy is<br />
a warm and bright 261sqm home (35sqm<br />
within the portico), making it perfect for a<br />
family or empty nesters.<br />
“Our aim was all day sun in the living<br />
area,” explains Mike Bonne from Hallmark<br />
Homes.<br />
The Cedar and Rockcote aerated panel<br />
exterior cladding complemented by<br />
attractive landscaping, gives this home<br />
instant street appeal. Indoors there are<br />
many stunning as well as practical features<br />
such as the: wood-look tiling through<br />
the entry and family area; seamless flow<br />
from dining to shaded alfresco living space; and wireless<br />
operated ceiling velux window in the kitchen for extra light<br />
and ventilation.<br />
Seamless indoor/outdoor flow has been achieved<br />
through two double bi-folds which open up a complete<br />
internal corner of the dining area (with no corner post),<br />
and raised deck height taking away any need to step down.<br />
This creates a very large sheltered living space and perfect<br />
entertaining area.<br />
“We’ve been really thrilled with the response we’ve had<br />
from people visiting our Rolleston showhome,” says Mike.<br />
“The portico/alfresco area shows what can be done and<br />
many clients have been keen to recreate their own version<br />
of this.”<br />
The separate lounge has warmth and intimacy, with<br />
features like the raised vaulted ceiling with corniced<br />
corners and concealed LED lighting giving a subtle effect<br />
in the room. Sliding panels on built-in cabinetry mean the<br />
television or selected pieces can be displayed or hidden<br />
from view, depending on the orientation the homeowner<br />
desires.<br />
The kitchen dining area is itself striking, with modern<br />
décor and efficient use of space. This includes a functional<br />
pantry, eye level appliances, good bench space and a study<br />
nook for the children to complete their homework under<br />
their parent’s watchful eye.<br />
The showhome has three bedrooms plus an office<br />
(a potential smaller fourth bedroom). The bedroom<br />
positioning with proximity to the master bedroom is ideal<br />
for young families while the bathroom and ensuite offer<br />
an element of separation between master and smaller<br />
bedrooms.<br />
The house has a separate laundry, washbasin in the<br />
separate toilet, walk-in tile and glass shower in the ensuite,<br />
bath and curved door shower in the main bathroom,<br />
double wardrobes in the second and third bedrooms, and<br />
additional storage areas.<br />
Hallmark Homes have done a great job in creating a<br />
very appealing and liveable home and while at a higher<br />
price point than the standard Lochy, this showhome offers<br />
viewers numerous ideas for their own new home.<br />
Hallmark Homes’ Rolleston showhome can be found<br />
at 9 Lemonwood Drive in Faringdon; open 12noon-<br />
4pm, Wednesdays to Sundays though you may find a<br />
representative there at other times.<br />
