Council
to step
back
from
social
housing
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
SOCIAL HOUSING across Selwyn
will no longer be directly provided
by the district council.
Instead, it will advocate for social
housing by working with housing
providers, Government agencies
and the private sector to deliver
services in the district.
It comes after several submissions
were made in the Long Term
Plan 2018-2028 calling for the
district council to invest or provide
social housing.
The district council’s decision
not to provide social housing was
made last week after a report was
presented at its public meeting.
The key reason behind the decision
is the district council does not
view social housing as part of its
core business. The report said the
primary responsibility of social
housing in Selwyn lies with central
Government.
The report said the benefits from
the district council deciding to
advocate for social housing instead
of providing, meant minimal
financial costs to council and
ratepayers. •Turn to page 4

In Brief
MAHOE RESERVE FIRES
A 28-year-old man has been
charged in relation to four fires at
Mahoe Reserve in Lincoln over the
past month. Sergeant Phil Bayne
said covert cameras were installed
in the reserve and a member of the
public was able to identify the man
responsible. He said the fires damaged
shrubs and trees. The man
will appear in the Christchurch
District Court on December 13.
FOSTER PARK DESIGN
The district council has approved
a design-build approach for the
procurement of a contractor for
the $21 million Foster Park indoor
sports project. The facility will
incorporate both a multi-court
indoor complex and a sports hub,
featuring changing rooms and
storage space. The approach will
involve expressions of interest;
selecting companies to develop a
basic concept design; and selecting
a preferred concept/contractor.

Advocacy role in
social housing
Pat
McEvedy
•From page 1
The district council currently
provides a small pool of social
housing in Darfield with three old
houses on North Tce. These have
historically been provided at low
market rents. It also provides a
house in Hororata
at below-market
rent to a trust that
looks after disadvantaged
children.
District councillor
John Morten
said the decision
probably fits in
with his philosophy of social
housing not being the district
council’s core business.
“I am not a great supporter of
social housing but I am certainly
not against council advocating
for groups in the community who
may possibly be providers or possibly
council being involved if it
had land available,” he said.
Cr Morten said the important
thing is the district council hasn’t
walked away and it is happy to
work with community groups.
District councillor Pat McEvedy
said he was comfortable with the
decision.
He said it has a role of advocating
on behalf of community
development for funding and
social housing providers which
want to set up in the district.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Hall repairs to go out for tender
• By Emily O’Connell
John Morten
REPAIRS TO the earthquake
damaged Sheffield Community
Hall have taken another step
forward.
The district council has approved
for tender negotiations to
take place and for the project to
proceed.
The hall, which is now owned
by the district council, was discussed
at its meeting last week.
A recommendation
to
put the seismic
strengthening
process
on hold so a
further assessment
could be
done was not
adopted by the
district council.
District councillor John
Morten advocated for the project
to continue without another
assessment, so Sheffield residents
didn’t have to wait longer for the
hall to be repaired.
“I moved an amendment,
which then was passed, that
basically instructed the staff to go
ahead and negotiate with the best
tenderer and get on and proceed
with the project,” he said.
The budget for the project was
originally $289,000 but the cost
to undertake it is now assessed
at $606,417.
Cr Morten said he “assumed”
the difference will be covered as
per the funding plan from the
initial report.
The plan included using unspent
money from the Springston
and Ladbrooks community halls
repairs as well as money from the
district seismic budget.
Some district councillors
had concerns over the $317,417
increase.
District councillor Mark Alexander
said it was “unfortunate”
and “not ideal.”
He said if the original budget
was $600,000 there would have
been a lot less support for it than
there was.
Cr Alexander supported the
recommendation to put the
seismic strengthening project on
hold while another assessment
was done.
Supporting his views, district
councillor Grant Miller said
they “clearly” need to stop and
think about it.
“Once you start getting to
those numbers, you’re not far
from a point where you go well
actually, are we better to repair
an old building . . . or should
REPAIRS: The

we actually stop and consider
ourselves here, what is best for
Sheffield in the future?” he said.
Sheffield-Waddington Community
Committee chairwoman
Val McKenzie said it was a “great
result.”
Former mayor Bill Woods, who
has been involved with the issue,
is also pleased with the outcome.
“The quicker we can get the
hall operating properly, the
better is it for the hall because
we’re losing so many customers
now,” he said.
Cr Alexander and Cr
Miller voted against the
amendment.
‘Emergency use’
chlorine gear
under discussion
• By Emily O’Connell
CHLORINATION equipment
could be installed at Rolleston,
Darfield, Arthur’s Pass, Upper
Selwyn Huts, and Lake Coleridge
as a preventative measure.
The district council’s audit and
risk sub-committee discussed the
issue at its meeting on Wednesday,
where it passed several recommendations
including one to install
the necessary infrastructure as
prioritised.
Its recommendations will go to
the district council next month to
be approved.
Sub-committee chairman Grant
Miller said the equipment would
be installed for “emergency use.”
“It’s there if there is a health outbreak,
we can have facilities ready
and we can turn it on and chlorinate
the water until such time as the
water supply is safe again.” he said.
Other recommendations included
permanently chlorinating the
Arthur’s Pass and Upper Selwyn
Huts water supplies, receiving the
Water Supply Chlorination – A Risk
Based Approach report, continuing
to review and update the chlorine
risk matrix and continuing to chlorinate
supplies which are already
chlorinated.

Further concerns over shed
• By Karen Pasco
Kerry Pauling
A SHED on State Highway
73 which has the potential to
“cut someone in half,” is still
standing as the Springfield
township committee don’t want
to appear heavy-handed.
Concerns about the shed,
near the corner of Pocock Rd
and SH73, were highlighted at
a Malvern Community Board
meeting.
Malvern
Community
Board chairman
Kerry
Pauling said
the owner,
who was approached
by
a member of
the Springfield Township committee
last year, told them she
wanted to repair it. However, no
further repairs had been made.
“We’re not really going to
push the issue too hard. We
don’t want the township committee
to alienate themselves as
doing something to force the
issue much,” Mr Pauling said.
When asked if public safety
was more important than alienating
the committee, Mr Pauling
said the committee could
offer to help tidy up the shed
and get rid of the loose material.
“There has been a sheet of iron
come off already,” Mr Pauling said.
“It could just about cut someone
in half.”
The owners did not want
to pull the shed down as they
would have to get a building
consent to erect a new one on
the same site if the shed was
gone, he said.
Mr Pauling was going to
check with the council whether
this was the case. If a building
consent was needed, regardless
of whether the shed was there
or not, there was no point in the
shed staying.
A Selwyn District Council
spokesperson said the council
could do nothing “from a
Resource Management Act
standpoint,” to remove the current
shed.
New Zealand Transport
ISSUE: A shed
on Pocock
Rd has the
potential to
cause harm.
Agency media manager Frances
Adank said roading contractors
had not advised the organisation
of any shed thought to be
endangering motorists in that
location.
“We would be interested to
hear more from the community
board.”
NZTA would have to work
with the council to remove the
shed as it was on private land,
she said.

Have your say
on speed limits
Fire rages, homes at risk
SELWYN RESIDENTS can now
have their say on speeds in the
district.
The district council approved a
draft revised speed limit bylaw for
public consultation at its meeting
last week.
The revised bylaw will ensure
the district council meets its
legal obligations for setting speed
limits, and will bring the bylaw
up to date with best practice, New
Zealand Transport Agency and
legal requirements.
It also approved a range of
speed limit changes for public
consultation. These are mainly
around schools and follow a prior
round of speed limit changes late
last year.
Changes to some 70km/h zones
are also proposed, in line with
NZTA guidelines.
Consultation on both the bylaw
and the speed limit changes are
open until February.
The proposed speed limit
changes include reducing speed
limits around school frontages
to 40 km/h and a variable
40km/h school zone speed limit
on Weedons Ross Rd fronting
Weedons School and Robinsons
Rd fronting Broadfield School.

Big turnout for successful Highland
STRENGTH: Jayden Hill competes in the sheaf toss.
ANOTHER successful Hororata
Highland Games has been
completed with more than 9000
people attending the eighth
annual event.
Visitors watched highland
dancers fling, drum majors twirl
their maces and strong men and
women compete in eight disciplines.
Many visitors themselves had a
go at tossing a caber, discovering
Celtic culture in amongst the 120
stalls and were delighted with entertainment
throughout the day.
The event, staged by the
Hororata Community Trust,
was held under sunny skies on
Saturday after a huge amount of
rain saw widespread flooding in
other parts of the South Island on
Friday.
Event manager Cindy Driscoll
said set up for the event took
a whole week and it knew the
weather was going to be a challenge
with the heavy rain on
Thursday and Friday.
“The team rose to this challenge
and were well prepared. We are
very lucky with the Hororata
Domain as a venue as it coped with
the amount of rain we received
on the Friday with surface water
draining away by the time the
gates opened on Saturday,” she
said.
BIG DAY: More than 9000
people attended the eighth
annual Hororata Highland
Games.
Mrs Driscoll said with Kiwi
ingenuity and teamwork the event
“went off without a hitch” and
many visitors were pleasantly surprised
with how good the grounds
were.
The event was opened by
Chieftain Patrick Hellier, New
Zealand’s highest achieving Highland
Games heavy athlete.
“It was great for me to experience
the full festival surrounding
the heavy arena where I normally
spend most of my time,” he said.
Mr Hellier said being welcomed
onto the stage by local kapa haka
group and saluted by the bands
was an experience he would never
forget.
More than 500 competitors
competed in 12 competitive
events, including the tug of war,
sack carry and small-bore rifle
shooting.
The Gough CAT Oceania
heavyweight championship was
won by Jono McFarlane.
Julie Stechmann won the
amateur heavy women’s championship
and Brian Reeves won the
men’s.
The champion highland dancer
was Danielle Joy and champion
pipe band was Canterbury Caledonian
Society’s Highland Pipe
Band.
The Darfield High School team
won the Harraways junior warriors
inter-school competition and
the Average Joes from Christchurch
took out the trophy pull in
the Southfuels tug of war.
Hororata’s 15-year-old Harry
Cookson won the Selwyn
Times kilted mile. This running
race is not the normal mile as
competitors have to jump over
obstacles, eat, drink and run.

Selwyn Sounds
HOMECOMING: Jon Stevens will perform at Selwyn Sounds in March.
Stevens coming home
to play in NZ for first
time in five years
One of New Zealand’s most successful musical exports Jon Stevens
will perform in the country for the first time in four years at Selwyn
Sounds. Matt Salmons caught up him about coming home and
supporting rural Australia
JON STEVENS will not be in his
homeland long for his performance
at Selwyn Sounds – but his first New
Zealand gig in five years will recharge
him, he says.
The Upper Hutt-born rocker will fly out
the day after Selwyn Sounds to meet commitments
at the Red Hot Summer Tour in
Australia.
Stevens said the Australian tour organisers
had tried to convince him to pull out
of Selwyn Sounds.
“I said ‘no way’. I’m not going to opt out
of a New Zealand show, sorry boys,” he
said.
As well as a “frantic” live performance
schedule this year, Stevens said he started
work on his 11th album in January, with a
view to release it in mid-2019.
It will feature his latest song, Rain Down
On Me, released on October 26 to support
drought-stricken farmers in Australia.
He also performed at the Hay Mate concert
on October 27, which raised money
for Australian charity Rural Aid.
“It was great to be a part of it and help
people,” Stevens said.
He said the song, written in January,
fitted the situation as it spoke of a struggle,
but also of hope on the horizon. All proceeds
from the song go to Rural Aid.
“I’m just going to give it to the farmers
and they can have every single cent that
comes from it. That’s my way to help.”
Although he visited family in Queenstown
last year, the last time he performed
in New Zealand was 2013 when he opened
for Aerosmith in Dunedin as part of the
Global Warming Tour.
Stevens said he was most looking
forward to “recharging” himself by reconnecting
with his homeland.
“Just putting my feet on the soil again,
you know?”
The youngest of 11, Stevens said he had
“whanau for days” and hoped to fit in a
catch-up.
“I’ve got a few cousins in Christchurch,
so I’ll catch up with them, get a boil up
going. I’ll be sweet.”
Stevens’ career launched at the age of 16
in 1980 with the release of Jezebel, which
topped the New Zealand charts at the
time.
Since then, the performer has released
10 studio albums, including band and solo
work, working alongside some of the most
well-known names in the music industry.
Stevens said he found it “cute” that
New Zealand fans still asked to hear his
early releases “from my teenage era” and
planned to keep his set list fluid and respond
to the crowd.
“Of course, we’ll play what the
people want. I might play one new song.
I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it,” he
said.
• Selwyn Sounds is on Saturday,
March 2, at the Lincoln Domain.
Tickets are available at www.
selwynsounds.co.nz
• Jon Stevens’ latest song Rain
Down On Me is available to purchase
on iTunes. All proceeds go to
farmers through Rural Aid

Our People
Vanessa-Amy Greenwood
was named the supreme
winner for her design
Pteraon at the Art
Couture NZ wearable arts
competition last month. The
Southbridge mother keeps
busy with art, gardening and
working at the Rakaia Island
dairy farm. Emily O’Connell
talks to her about her
passions
Can you tell me a bit about
entering the wearable arts
competition?
I decided to enter about a
week before the due date and
it was more a case of why not?
I had made the garments and
they were just sitting in the shed
collecting bird poo so I thought
why not, someone might enjoy
them.
Had you made the garments
for the competition or was
there something else you had
used them for as well?
I had made them originally for
WOW but they wouldn’t have
got in WOW.
You didn’t end up entering
WOW?
No, I wimped out.
Can you tell me about the two
garments you made?
Elixir is the one made from
Nespresso coffee capsules. It
was based on one of the old
World Vision advertisements
where they said for $1 a day we
could help save a life and each
coffee capsule costs about $1.
So it was a food for thought
sort of concept that we have our
luxuries and other people don’t.
And Pteraon is made out of
inner tubes and paint, she was
about something from out of
this world. If there was another
world it’s what I would like it to
look like. The wings on her are
more about me and how it would
be nice to be able to spread your
wings and sort of step out of
comfort zones.
How long did you spend on
both of the entries?
Pteraon, from the moment
I started making her, took
about 12 months. Elixir took
18 months but that includes

Southbridge School.
collecting all the capsules as well
because I didn’t drink all that
coffee.
Do you think you’ll enter it
again next year?
Yes.
How did you feel when you
were announced as the supreme
winner?
I was shell shocked. I really
was. When I saw the calibre of
work that was there I was really
amazed. I couldn’t quite believe
that they stood up against
everybody else’s work. I didn’t
believe it.
Have you always been into
design and fashion?
If you saw what I wear every
day you would know I’m not
into fashion at all. I am very
practical with what I wear, it’s
all about comfort and what I’m
doing but I love art and it’s just
another form of art for me. I’ve
got no skills in dressmaking or
anything. I had to teach myself
boning while I was going, just so
Vanessa-Amy Greenwood
For the love of art – a Southbridge mother’s
I could achieve it.
How did you learn the
different arts skills you have?
Trial and error. I failed art at
school. In some respects I feel
like “yeah see, you said I couldn’t
do it.” I picked up a paintbrush
after my daughter Bronte was
born and she is 10-yearsold
now. I’ve just practised I
suppose.
Would you say art is your
passion?
Yes. It’s sort of a bit like the
SELWYN TIMES
air that you breathe, if I’m not
doing art, I don’t really feel like
I’m living.
What are some of the
different forms of art you do?
I paint backdrops and murals,
I do topiary, like my garden is
all topiary, I do resin work and
I do oil painting. I’m teaching
myself a bit of sculpture at the
moment. I haven’t really stuck to
one thing.
Can you tell me about the
mural you’re painting for
Southbridge School?
Well the school has its 150th
jubilee coming up so they
wanted a mural to go on one of
their walls outside, they wanted
it to include their five values . . .
I’ve had to move away from what
my normal type of art is which
is all very freehand and this one
is very bold, bright colours but
in blocks and more symbolism
to go with the silhouettes of
children’s face as well.
How long have you lived in
Southbridge?
15 years.
Why did you move to
Southbridge? Where did you
come from?
I grew up at Living Springs
and I changed from being a
hairdresser to dairy farming and
met my husband Mike who was
from Sedgemere.
How do you find living in
Southbridge? Do you enjoy it?
Yes, actually I really do.
I miss the hills but living in
Southbridge is such a lovely,
tight-knit community. There’s
also someone you can count
on. It’s a safe place for children,
people look out for them.
Why the change from
hairdressing to farming?
I wanted to be outdoors. I’m
not very good at being indoors.
How did you find the
change?
It had its challenges. Like in
my first week it rained and you
know, I had to get wet weather
gear for the first time in my life.
But being able to get up and see
the sunrise was probably the best
thing about it, even now I still
love being able to watch the sun
rise.

creative journey
Can you tell me a bit about the
work you do now on the Rakaia
Island dairy farm?
I don’t actually work with the
livestock any more. I plant and
maintain the native plantings
they have there for environmental
advancement.
What made you get into
planting?
I’m very passionate about our
environment and recycling. I
know that a lot of the plants I’m
putting in now I will never see
them at their full glory but my
child will and her children will. To
know that we’re sort of helping the
environment for our children and
future generations is what really
drives me to do it. And I get to see
all the bird life which I love.
Obviously art’s a huge passion
of yours, what are some of your
other hobbies?
Gardening is probably my other
main hobby.
How long do you spend in the
garden?
It’s a bit embarrassing. I can
forget that it’s dinner time. My
husband asked me to start wearing
a hi-vis so he can find me in the
garden because I just stay out
there. It’s nothing for me to end
up with a head lamp on my head
and keep going. But I’m like that
when I’m doing any of my art,
time disappears on me. I have
no concept of it at all. You sort of
get lost in your own world while
you’re doing it.
Are there any goals you’re
wanting to achieve with your
design or your garden?
I would love to see a garment get
to WOW. Win or lose I wouldn’t
mind, I just want to see it come to
life on-stage. My art, I would love
to paint murals and backdrops for
the rest of my life and I would be
happy. If I could paint every day
for the rest of my life I think that
would be the happiest life I could
have.
Is there anything you would
like to add, which I haven’t
asked?
I have depression and I’ve had
depression for 10 years and for me
to step outside of my comfort zone
has been the biggest challenge I’ve
ever faced particularly with the
Art Couture. That was terrifying.
I had people to support me and
people who say: “You can do it.”
If I hadn’t had people around me
that were so supportive I would
never have managed to do it but
the feeling you get from achieving
it, it was well worth the panic
attacks.
What’s your advice to other
people who have depression?
Some days are a big struggle but
celebrate every small achievement.
Sometimes getting out of bed is
the biggest achievement of the day
but you did it.
Do you find your art helps with
your depression?
Absolutely. I honestly think it’s
a form of therapy. I would love to
be able to do something like that
with people and help them. It just
frees your mind up and you stop
thinking about all your problems.
INTEREST: Six Selwyn schools attended the Selwyn-Waihora zone committee meeting last week.
Pupils look to nature at water
zone committee meeting
SELWYN-WAIHORA water
zone committee’s meeting took
on a decidedly youthful look
last week.
In a first for Canterbury –
and possibly New Zealand
– school pupils were invited to
participate fully in the proceedings
of a water zone committee.
Welcoming the pupils, committee
chairman Allen Lim said
it was “great” to see so many
young people coming together
to discuss the important issues
of freshwater management and
biodiversity.
“These face-to-face conversations
and the people element
are critical in a collaborative
process like this,” he said.
The participating schools,
Burnham, Ladbrooks, Lincoln
Primary, Prebbleton, Rolleston
Christian and Springston,
are all Enviroschools. This
means they have committed to
creating a healthy, peaceful and
sustainable world via “action
learning”, where generations
work with and learn from
nature.
Enviroschools facilitator Matt
Stanford and Lou Drage from
Te Ara Kakariki shared their
collaborative Kids Discovery
Plant-outs initiative, working
with nearby Enviroschools to
connect them with restoration
projects close to their schools.
Key to their success is the authentic
contexts for learning the
programme provides. One example
was Rolleston Christian
School supporting dairy farmer
Adele Well to restore a riparian
margin on her farm.
The pupils and parents helped
plant 420 eco-sourced native
plants beside the Hororata
River. The pupils are now keen
to learn how to fence.
Each school had an opportunity
to share information about
their freshwater and biodiversity
projects and discuss issues
that are important to them.
Ladbrooks School gave the
example of a bug hotel and
bird and bug forest, Prebbleton
School talked about recycled
tyres being used as seats and
Rolleston Christian School
discussed hydroponics and
beeswax wraps.
Environment Canterbury
Programme manager Caroline
Hart applauded the initiative
and hoped it could be transferable.
“They’re at the heart
of effective community
participation in decisions
affecting water in their areas.
It’s critical that the youth voice
is heard – they’re the ones
who will carry our plans and
aspirations into the future,” she
said.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Tsunami test for emergency services
• By Emily O’Connell
A TSUNAMI exercise has been
role-played in Selwyn.
Emergency services, civil
defence response team, community
response team and welfare
volunteers spent an evening recently
“evacuating” areas within
the tsunami zone and setting up
emergency centres.
District council
property and commercial
manager
Douglas Marshall
said the exercise
was held to test its
field resources in a
Douglas
Marshall
tsunami situation.
He said it runs different
scenarios for
its exercises such as earthquakes
and snowstorms.
“We generally run one exercise
per year, sometimes more,” Mr
Marshall said.
As it was only an exercise,
the public was not asked to
evacuate.
Environment Canterbury
earthquake and tsunami hazard
scientist Helen Jack said the “vast
majority” of tsunamis Selwyn
would experience are small and
don’t inundate land.
“The biggest impact for
Selwyn then is that you could
get the strong and unpredictable
currents happening along the
coast and especially at the river
mouths,” she said.
In the case of a very large
tsunami, Ms Jack said fields
could be flooded with saltwater
and it could overrun low lying
areas such as the Rakaia Huts or
Taumutu.
“Most tsunamis are small. . .
but they still need to be taken
seriously because if you’re in the
water or on the beach, you can
still get knocked off your feet,”
she said.
When it comes to a tsunami
occurring along the coast of
Selwyn, south of Banks Peninsula,
Ms Jack said they don’t
have any evidence of recently
active faults in that area and the
EMERGENCY:
A tsunami
exercise
took place
in Selwyn
recently to
test field
resources.
chances of something happening
are “very, very low.”
She said most of Selwyn’s
tsunamis come from other
places, such as central or South
America, and these would occur
a few times a decade.
The scenario practised recently
was a tsunami generated from an
earthquake off the cost of Peru.
Mr Marshall said they cannot
predict the exact damage a tsunami
would cause to Selwyn, as
each one is different, but people
would need to go to the evacuation
zones.
“In a tsunami that inundates
land there can be significant
damage to buildings, crops, and
infrastructure,” Mr Marshall
said.
Lincoln chief fire officer
Jeremy Greenwood said the
exercise was “really good” and it
was “well done.”
He said the Lincoln crew was
based at both Greenpark huts
and Selwyn huts and it was going
through how it would evacuate
the different areas, liaising
with volunteers and setting up
evacuation centres.
“It was good to see everyone
work together. Hopefully, if it
does happen, we will be well prepared,”
Mr Greenwood said.
Leeston and Southbridge fire
brigades also helped during the
exercise.
Mr Marshall said in the event
of a tsunami or risk of one,
people should evacuate “quickly
and safely,” help neighbours,
follow instructions from civil
defence and emergency services
and if possible, stay with family
and friends.

WELCOME TO HIRE A HUBBY
BRUCE WOODGATE
Bruce Woodgate is our new Hire A Hubby
franchisee in Selwyn. He has joined the
network of over 50 Hubby’s working throughout
New Zealand and is looking forward to caring for
customers from Prebbleton to Arthur’s Pass and all
the areas in-between.
Bruce will be easy to spot driving his distinctive
black Hire A Hubby ute, and he is especially looking
forward to being able to provide a good honest
service and a friendly smile, as well as seeing the
satisfaction of happy customers and a job well done.
Bruce has always had a love of building, landscaping,
home maintenance and renovation, and after an
extensive career in building, scaffolding, landscaping
and project management, he has decided that it is
time to turn his skills into a business.
Bruce is helped by his wife Sue, who is also a skilled
project manager and together they enjoy solving
problems and bringing great outcomes together for
their customers. Bruce is able to complete a wide
range of jobs to improve your property, including
everything from those annoyingly tricky installation
jobs, to a new deck, fence or a complete home
renovation.
Originally from the UK, Bruce loves living in
Prebbleton and along with Sue is dedicated to
building their business in the local community.
Bruce plans to use his extensive DIY knowledge
accumulated over the years to benefit the
customers in his community.
Demand for professional home maintenance and
renovation services has grown significantly since
Hire A Hubby started in New Zealand in 1998. These
days people are time-poor or simply don’t have the
range of skills or specialist equipment required to
complete projects on their own.
Bruce says, “My priority is to provide a top-quality
service, and to back that up all Hire A Hubby work
carries a guarantee. At the end of the day, it’s all
about taking away the stress so that you can sit
back and enjoy your home, knowing that the
maintenance is taken care of!”
“I want customers to enjoy the whole experience
of dealing with Hire A Hubby as easy, stress free
and rewarding. While some people can find DIY a
difficult, time consuming process, I want people
to feel confident to ask me to complete even the
smallest task”
We can handle it all and if any additional specialist
tradesmen are needed then we can arrange them
for you as well.

Hundreds set to attend Southbridge 150th
More than 600 people
are expected to come
together to mark
Southbridge School’s
150th jubilee next week
PREPARATIONS TO celebrate
the significant milestone from
November 23-25 started two
years ago with the forming of
a committee to organise and
oversee the celebratory activities.
Committee chairwoman Carey
Barnett said it has received an
overwhelming uptake that has
exceeded expectations.
“It’s wonderful to have
over 600 people registered to
attend various events over the
weekend,” she said.
Southbridge School opened on
April 27, 1868, after a number of
Southbridge residents presented
a memorial to the Board of
Education and a public meeting
was held at the Southbridge
Hotel.
At the time, householders of
the area had to provide £50 per
householder and the education
board funded another £150 for
each subscribing householder in
order to provide a school room
and the schoolmaster’s residence.
Once the buildings were
arranged, the school committee
was allowed to advertise for
CURRENT: Southbridge School will mark its 150 years next weekend.
the schoolmaster’s position at a
salary of not less than £100 per
year.
The education board paid £75
of this amount and the rest was
provided by local contributions.
The opening roll of the school
was 20, but this quickly rose to
32 within a few months. The
school roll peaked in 1891 at 389.
In 1903, the school established
a secondary department which
initially consisted of 30-40
students.
The school then became
known as Southbridge District
High School and served
secondary students from further
afield until the end of 1980
when Ellesmere College was
established.
The primary school remained
and is still going today, nestled
in the sumptuous surrounds on
Hastings St.
Steeped in history, the school
still hosts pupils in classrooms
that were built in 1927 but have
since been modified to meet
changes in schooling methods.
The ‘leaver’s fence’ which
adorns the front of the school
grounds boosts some of New
Zealand’s finest sporting figures.
It includes former All
Blacks Doug Bruce, Albert
Anderson and Daniel Carter,
Commonwealth gold medallist
for shooting Graeme Ede, New
Zealand volleyball and women’s
rugby player Kimberley Smith,
New Zealand rowing coxswain

still ‘a great place’
Consultation opens on draft
Parking Strategy
Public consultation is now open for the Council’s Draft Parking
Strategy which aims to manage the district’s parking in an equitable
and coherent way.
The Draft Parking Strategy sets out ways to manage parking for
different parts of the Selwyn district, particularly in larger town centres
such as Rolleston and Lincoln. It provides for both private and public
parking, and links with the Council’s other transport strategies.
The need for the Draft Parking Strategy is a signal of the impact
of growth in the district. With that growth comes the demand to
manage parking that works for growing residential communities
and an expanding business sector, as well as our rural areas. This
strategy is about ensuring that the parking system provides safe,
efficient access to services and destinations, and allows Selwyn’s
townships to thrive.
The Council is inviting residents to provide their feedback on the
Draft Parking Strategy from Friday 9 November 2018 to 5pm on
Friday 7 December 2018.
For more information visit yoursay.selwyn.govt.nz/draft-parkingstrategy.

Parks and reserves
Friendly communities, good services and facilities, peaceful, open spaces, events and activities,
and feeling safe – these are just a few of the reasons why most local people enjoy living in Selwyn.
The Council’s 2018 annual residents survey shows that 91% of people surveyed agreed that
Selwyn was ‘a great place to live’ – the same proportion as last year.
A majority of residents also gave the thumbs-up to the services and facilities that the Council
provides, with 69% of residents rating the Council’s overall performance as good or very good,
similar to last year’s 70%.
The result continues a long-term trend which has seen the overall performance rating increase
steadily from 58% in 2013.
Among the services that respondents rated most highly were rubbish collection (95% rated good
or very good), recycling (94%), parks and reserves (85%), libraries (84%), and water supply (76%).
Across the 24 different Council services surveyed, the biggest increases in satisfaction were
recorded for organic waste collection (up 4%), making roads and footpaths safer (up 3%), and
playgrounds (up 3%).
Services which saw a significant decrease in satisfaction included water races (down 6%), public
toilets (down 6%), cemeteries (down 5%), land drainage (down 5%), the resource recovery park
down 5%), and sewerage and waste water (down 4%).
Selwyn Mayor Sam Broughton says it’s no surprise that people feel positive about the district.
“Selwyn has a lot to offer – thriving townships, a growing economy, good schools and services
and a stunning environment right in our back yard,” he says.
“It’s great to hear that most residents think the Council is doing a good job overall, but it’s also
important to get feedback on the areas where need to lift our game. We do take careful note of the
findings of this survey each year, and look at how we might need to shift our priorities to provide
better service in key areas.”
The survey was carried out in June and July by independent research company Research First,
and surveyed 421 people using telephone, cellphone and online surveys to provide a statistically
representative sample of Selwyn’s population.
The full residents’ survey is available at: www.selwyn.govt.nz/residents-survey
New tsunami plan effective
Council’s new tsunami plan was tested during a scenario exercise
held recently.
The exercise was an opportunity to test the Council’s recently
updated Selwyn Tsunami Plan. The tsunami scenario, run by the
Selwyn Civil Defence Emergency Management, involved testing
how emergency services and community volunteers would evacuate
people from a specific zone (Orange Zone). No one was actually
told to leave their homes during the exercise.
The exercise also tested Civil Defence and emergency services’
processes and procedures during such an event as well as that of
the Selwyn’s Response Team, Welfare Team and local community
response volunteers from all over the district.
Council Emergency Management Officer Ryan O’Rourke says the
exercise proved that the plan is effective, and also helped to identify
a number of small improvements.
“This was a great example of community involvement in Civil
Defence and of residents looking after their neighbours,” Mr
O’Rourke says. “It’s the second tsunami exercise we’ve run in the
last few months – the previous exercise involved the Emergency
Operations Centre (EOC) only. This one involved the EOC
coordinating with resources out on the ground, such as Fire and
Emergency NZ local brigades.”
You can find more information about the Selwyn Tsunami Plan
and learn about the different zones on the Council’s website:
www.selwyn.govt.nz/tsunami.
Sign up to Selwyn Gets Ready
The Council offers a free Civil Defence alerting system to residents,
which sends text and email alerts to subscribed households in
the event of an emergency like a tsunami, wildfire, snow or severe
weather. We strongly recommend that your household subscribes to
this service.
To join visit www.selwyn.getsready.net and click ‘join’. You can

Time to report potholes
Weedons
Residents’
Association
secretary
Gary Doyle
writes
about
potholes in
the district
and what
residents should do about
them
POTHOLES ARE the bane
of every driver or cyclists life.
They are surely one of the most
hated things that we all have to
endure.
However, what can we or even
what do we do to try and eradicate
these annoying obstacles to
our daily life?
For the most part we do nothing,
they need fixing, the council
should do something about
them, but they do nothing. That
is the cry you hear again and
again, but I will ask the question,
what do you do, or for that
matter what should you do?
Over the past few years I will
readily admit that I have been
slack in this area of reporting
potholes. The answer to can we
get them fixed is not all that
difficult, a quick phone call to
council and the relevant pothole
can be logged into the system for
PROBLEM: Weedons Residents’ Association secretary Gary
Doyle is encouraging residents to report potholes rather than
just complain.
remedial action.
But how many people do this,
very few, unfortunately, me included
I am sorry to say, time to
change that. To report a pothole
or any other issue, phone 347
2800 and ask for the help desk.
Remember that we all live in
the district and it is beholden
on all of us to try and make
the experiences as pleasant as
possible. The attitude of “not my
problem” is also not helpful.
The old saying of “a stitch in
time saves nine” is very relevant
when dealing with these issues.
A simple quick fix on a small
pothole may well actually save a
vehicle from serious damage or
even a life.
We pay rates to have these issues
along with other remedied,
but if we do nothing and just sit
back then we have no grounds
to complain if something goes
wrong.
So okay, let’s get a little active
and report these blasted potholes
and at least get rid of one
hazard from our daily lives.

Kirkwood Opportunities
‘Schooling for the Whole Child’
At Kirkwood we are very proud of our children and their achievements. Our pupils have many opportunities to participate
in a wide range of education activities including Technology; ICT; Music; Drama; Education Outside The Classroom;
Leadership roles; Camps; Academic challenges; and Sports. Our pupils develop a wide range of skills which helps them
develop educationally, socially, emotionally and physically during their time with us. Just a few of the opportunities our
pupils have experienced this year are as follows:
Education Outside the
Classroom
We visit many different places within our community
such as Canterbury Museum, Riccarton House
and the Art Gallery. We also offer class camps for
our Year 7 and Year 8 pupils. This year our Year
7’s camped at Purau Bay where they experienced
canoeing, abseiling and camping skills, along
with getting to know their class and developing
friendships.
Our Year 8 pupils are currently enjoying their
Wellington camp. These camps provide
great opportunities for learning and personal
development.
China Trip
Part way through the July school holidays, Ethan, Brooke, Aaliya, Casper,
Mackenzie, Lauren, Ryan, Alexander, Katie and Grace and two teachers
had the opportunity to explore China. This was the first Panda camp we
have attended.
The following article was written by Katie and Alex:
‘The Temple of Heaven, the Pearl Markets, the Summer Palace and
seeing the general lifestyle of the Chinese people. They were able to see
some beautiful buildings with long, rich histories of emperors and different
dynasties. Haggling is common at the Pearl Markets and was a very
different experience for us, which encouraged us to quickly learn about
converting yuan into New Zealand dollars to get a good price. We also
really enjoyed the boat ride across the Emperor’s lake; there have been
many great memories made as a group.
Our days at the Chinese school were busy - making new friends, teaching
rakau and the cup song, learning Chinese calligraphy and songs as well as
experiencing a huge school cafeteria, which was a very different experience!
It was a great opportunity to see how school works in a different country
and try new things. We all enjoyed teaching physical education games such
as elastics and a football/badminton game that we pretty much invented.
Duck, duck, goose was also a favourite amongst the pupils in China!
We were fortunate to continue to travel and see incredible sights such as
The Great Wall of China, where we were all able to walk a section. Another
highlight was the Beijing Zoo, it was a great chance to see some rare
animals but the living conditions were very sad. In addition to these places
we also visited the 2008 Olympic venues, the Water Cube and the Bird’s
Nest, as well as the Olympic torch and Olympic Village areas which we
found to be interesting. Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City also
hold important places in Chinese history and often we were in awe of how
immense these places are in addition to hearing about the incredible history
behind the building of these structures. The National Museum of China was
also very impressive in both the artwork and size of the building!
We will all recall some amazing chances to explore a different culture, some
interesting memories for us as Kirkwood United and the opportunity to
represent Kirkwood with pride as global youth ambassadors. We would like
to say a huge thank you to Miss Toaolamai and Mr Gaut for their support
on the trip. Thank you to our parents for encouraging us to take up such an
awesome opportunity. We all had an amazing time and hope to see more
Kirkwood students exploring the world in years to come!
Sports
We participate in a large variety of sports including: Netball, Football, Cross
Country, Skiing, Swimming, Rugby, Basketball, Waterpolo, Touch Rugby, Korf
Ball, Table Tennis, Badminton, Athletics and Gymnastics. We also compete in
the Canterbury Association of Intermediate and Middle Schooling competitions.
Our school is well known for the courtesy, co-operation and sportsmanship
of our teams and we value this highly. Some of the highlights this year are as
follows:
Example from last year:
Korfball Tournament - We sent two teams to the Canterbury Korfball
Tournament. Bowls Tournament - we had 12 successfully compete at the
Canterbury Bowls Tournament. Table Tennis - 4 of our Table Tennis teams
were placed in the top 3 of their weekly competition. Girls’ Basketball team
were placed third in their Friday evening competition.
Many of our pupils have been selected to represent Canterbury and/or have
been selected for the Nationals in various sports which makes our school proud.
Technology
Our on-site technology centre provides our pupils
with a range of creative learning experiences in
different areas: Foods, Electronics, Robotics and
Materials (metal, wood, fabric and plastic). Our
pupils have created a large variety of work this
year. We also participate in Robofest, Future in
Tech programmes, EPro8 and 3D printing.
Programmes focus on Planning for Practice, Brief
Development and Outcome Evaluation.
ICT: We have pods of touch screen laptops,
ordinary laptops and Chromebooks
for classroom use to enable pupils
to develop their skills. Pupils are
also welcome to bring their own
technology. More pupils are doing
this each year. We recommend that
parents check which devices are
used at the High School they think
their children will be attending.
Blues Awards
Outstanding achievements, whether they
are personal or at school, are celebrated
via our Blues Awards system. Our
students can achieve a Blues Award in
various areas such as Cultural, Sports
and Academic.
An Outstanding Elite Blues Award may
be achieved if a student has achieved an
Academic, Cultural and a Sporting Blue.
There are quite strict criteria for receiving
a Blue and these are outlined on our
website www.kirkwood.school.nz
School Production
Every second year we produce a school
performance for all interested pupils. Our
next School Production will be in 2019.
Don’t forget, there are still some places available for Year 7 and Year 8 for 2019.
Please visit our website www.kirkwood.school.nz for information and to

New coaches eye up more titles for Lincoln Uni
• By Gordon Findlater
Wednesday November 14 2018
NEW HEAD coach Alex
Robertson and assistant Craig
Dunlea will look to guide
Lincoln University to a fifth
straight metro rugby title next
year.
The pair come to Lincoln with
some country rugby flavour,
having both been involved in
Canterbury Country’s rugby
programme in recent years.
Robertson and Dunlea take
over from Bevan Sissons and
Ben Blair who guided the side to
victory this year.
“Ben and Bevan didn’t want to
continue. They’ve served Lincoln
very well over the last few years,”
said Lincoln University sport
scholarship manager Peter
Magson.
Sissons has taken up a
coaching role with Burnside,
while Blair has done the same at
Marist Albion.
Robertson has spent the last
two years as co-coach at Darfield
and head coach of the Ellesmere
senior side. Last year he was also
an assistant coach at Canterbury

professional rugby in New
Zealand and overseas before
becoming involved in coaching
at Mid-Canterbury.
He has also coached the New

team for two seasons in the Jock
Hobbs national tournament,

“The bar is already set very

be a lot of pressure to keep this
going. But with some great
foundations already in place, it
is important that we keep the
momentum going and keep
trying to add to that success in
the future,” said Dunlea.
“I really like the challenge
of developing the players to
become better, which will put
them in contention for higher
achievements.”

Motoring
• By Ross Kiddie
VOLKSWAGEN’S Golf GTi
has had a strong following from
those who like to be driving a hot
hatchback.
The legendary sports car has
an enviable reputation for performance
and is certainly on my list
of desirables but at almost $60k it
is probably out of reach for many
– including me.
However, Volkswagen has
another desirable hot hatch in its
books – the Polo GTi. The Polo
in this form is a vibrant, fivedoor
modelled on the lines of
its Golf stablemate, albeit with a
$21,000 price difference.
Of course, you don’t get all
the trick stuff of Golf GTi, but
the Polo equivalent is still well
specced, powerful and light, the
combination providing the ingredients
for sporty ability.
Under the bonnet of the Polo
GTi sits a 2-litre, turbocharged
engine which develops 147kW
and 320Nm. While they may seem
average outputs compared to many
of the high performing models
which make up this part of the
market, the Polo GTi is a quick
car. It develops a lot of torque low
down (1500rpm-4400rpm), these
figures meeting the low point of
maximum power at 4400rpm.
Consequently, it is swift off the
mark and will lunge to high speeds
quickly. For the record, it will
make 100km/h from a standstill
in 6.7sec, and will scorch through
a highway overtake in 4.4sec
(80km/h to 120km/h).
The test car was fitted with a sixspeed
direct shift gearbox, effectively
that means it’s an automatic.
It is a quick-shifting transmission
with ratios that enhance engine
performance, they are low in the
first three or four slots, broadening
to provide relaxed highway motoring
and fuel usage savings.
Volkswagen claim a 5.9-litre
per 100km/h (48mpg) combined
cycle fuel usage rating, which
sits well with the 7.2l/100km
(39mpg) showing during testing
time. Considering I was aggressive
with the throttle, exploring
its acceleration and performance
potential frequently, those
figures are commendable. At
100km/h the engine is relaxed at
just 1750rpm, returning a fabulous
instantaneous readout of
4.5l/100km (63mpg).
However, such is the freerevving
nature of the engine, fuel
economy often gets ignored, the
Polo has decisive response to
accelerator input, it is feisty and
downright keen to pull hard.
The excitement from under the
bonnet is matched by a firm-riding,
sport-orientated suspension.
The Polo’s set-up isn’t as sophisticated
as that of the Golf GTi, and
as its simplicity shows, the ride is
a little harsh, there’s not a lot of
compliance, but it is engineered
towards a positive handling experience,
and to that end it excels.
However, the Polo GTi points
and turns into a corner with decisive
steering feel and kart-like
stability. It is extremely nimble
and agile, a lot of that thanks
to the light weight of the car in
total. At 1355kg it isn’t dragging
around any excess, which means
a high power-to-weight ratio,
and with its angry engine sound
and lovely, but subdued, exhaust
crackle on gearshifts, the Polo
GTi lures and entices the driver
to explore its potential.
I took the test car on a route
which takes in a raft of corner
types, and I couldn’t fault its
poise and balance, it is a car
which you just don’t want to get
out of, such is its all round ability.

At around $39k the Polo GTi
also comes in with a good level of
kit. I particularly like the tartan
seats, they are very much a match
for Golf GTi, alongside that, the
Polo GTi also encapsulates a lot
of what Volkswagen represents as
a performance brand.
The Polo has been used with
considerable success in the World
Rally Championship, and the
GTi branding benefits from that
exposure. With the way the Polo
GTi looks and the inclusion of
features such as a built-in stopwatch
you could almost believe it
is meant for competition.
It’s most certainly an exciting
car to be behind the wheel of,
and at its price point it is also a
realistic opportunity for those
who like something different in a
sports car.

Gardening
• By Henri Ham
LUPINS ARE one of our most
popular cottage garden flowers
and it’s not hard to see why.
Their impressive flower spires
with closed, baby bonnet-type
petals will brighten up any
garden. And their many shades
of blues, violets, pinks and white
– all enhanced by vibrant green
foliage – inject fantastic colour.
But what I also like about
lupins is that they are relatively
laid back. They don’t require a
perfectly fertilised, mulched and
dug-over soil to start out on. A
moderately fertile (at best) bed
of soil is just fine. A bit sandy
– even better. In fact, I often suggest
lupins to my lesser-inclined
green-fingered friends as they
cope well with less love.
I like to plant lupins in my
cottage garden flower bed. I
plant them alongside hollyhocks
(another much taller statuesque
flower), delphiniums, marigolds
and poppies.
If you’re not sure on what
combo you should be doing, how
about a mix.
While lupins are laid back,
they do still like a nice, sunny,
well-drained spot to grow.
Plant the seedlings or plants
50cm apart give them a decent
watering as soon as they’re
planted. After this only water
every few days.
Lupins grow a taproot, which
is a main root growing straight
down. Because of this, pots are
not their first choice of growing
location. And they also don’t
cope well with clay, as they struggle
breaking through this solid
layer in the soil.
Being a perennial (lasting
more than one year), you might
like to divide up your lupins in
autumn. Dividing perennial
plants while they are dormant
can help expand your garden,
and ensures they will be ready to
bloom again come spring.
When your plants start to
look a bit overgrown (around
autumn), first prune them back,
then mulch and fertilise. When
the leaves at the centre of the
plant start to die off leaving gaping
holes you’ll know you can
divide them.
To divide lupins, dig them up
around 30cm past the edge of
the plant. Wash the roots with
water and then gently pull the
plant apart. You may need to cut
part of the taproot to separate it.
Each new clump you’re left with

Brighten your backyard with laid back lupins
VIBRANT:
Mixing
up lupins
in your
garden will
provide a
wealth of
different
colours.
Fire rages, homes at risk
should have around four or five
new growth buds.
You can now replant the
healthiest segments of your
lupin. Dividing and shifting your
plant locations is an excellent
way to freshen up your garden.
This is also the time to dig in
new compost to give your plants
the best possible kick start.
If you’re doing all this hard
work in your garden, make sure
you put in the extra effort and
keep the weeds at bay. When it
comes to weeding, a quick hoe
of any weeds once a week will
mean your plants don’t have to
compete for vital nutrients, water
and light.
Apply mulch now while you
can still get in between the
plants, before the new growth
occurs.
Lupins are prone to slugs and
snails, but their main foe is the
aphid. So keep a close eye on
aphids to ‘nip them in the bud’
before the problem gets out of
hand.
You’ll find many sprays
available at your local garden
centre. Or picking them off with
your fingers or blasting with
water can also help. But that’s
making lupins sound a bit more
labour intensive than laid back
now isn’t it?

THE PAPANUI-I nes
Community Board has taken the
rare step of starting a petition
to figh the city council over
funding.
Signatures are being co lected
in a bid to get funding for a community
facility in Shirley.
It comes after the city council
removed funding for the centre
pla ned for Shirley Rd, near the
intersection with Hi ls Rd. This
was the site of the former community
centre, which was badly
damaged in the February 2,
20 1, earthquake.
The removal o funding
prompted community board
chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten
to stan down, citing it as her “die
in the ditch” project.
Ms Jone said the board’s role
is to represen the community,
and by gathering signatures from
residents, it was fulfi ling that
role.
“One of the roles of a community
board is to represent and act
as advocate for the interests of its
community and this is what we
are doing. The LTP and a nual
plans are a l about lo bying the
council.”

A little history, a lot of appeal
Nothing beats a great location and this is definitely one of the best! Properties like this one do not come to the

grounds was purchased in 1921 and has remained in the family until now. In a beautiful setting with the hills as a
backdrop, this prime parcel of land is ready and waiting for your lifestyle and building plans to become a reality.
Offering the ultimate escape, this 7.6 hectares is located on the highly sought after Old Tai Tapu Road. Country
living within the city zone. This property will provide you with all of the benefits of living next to city amenities yet
still retain a country lifestyle feel. Don't let another day go by. The potential here is exciting!

What to ask at an open home
It’s easy to get carried away when you’re searching through
property listings for the house of your dreams. But if you’re not
careful, home buying can become a nightmare.
“Buying a property is a complex and
potentially stressful process, not least
because it involves such a scary amount
of money,” says Kevin Lampen-Smith,
chief executive at the Real Estate Authority
(REA).
“It’s smart to do as much as you can to
reduce the risk of unwelcome surprises or
unexpected costs further down the line.”
In the first instance, Lampen-Smith
recommends drawing up a list of questions
to ask about properties you’re interested in.
“Remember that you can ask the real
estate agent anything you like about the
property,” he says. “They are also required
to tell you everything they know and not
withhold any details.”
If you’re not sure what to ask, here’s a
handy list of questions. Open homes can
be busy, so ask the agent if you can talk on
the phone, or send questions via email.
- Have there been any issues with the
property, such as earthquake damage or
water-tightness?
- Are there any offers on the property,
or have any contracts been cancelled by
potential buyers?
- How long has it been on the market?
What is the seller’s preferred settlement
date?
- What maintenance, repairs or
improvements have been carried out? Do
these have permits?
- Is there a Land Information
Memorandum (LIM) available or a
building report prepared by an accredited
property surveyor?
- Is the property well-maintained? What
condition are the roof, piles, wiring, and
plumbing in?
- Is the property insulated? If so, to what
degree (eg walls, underfloor, ceiling)?
- Is there any risk of methamphetamine
(P) contamination?
- If there is a body corporate (usually for
apartments), what does that entail?
- Are there any issues with neighbours
or planned developments?
“If you are seriously considering making
an offer, you will need to do your own
research and seek professional advice. It
may well become your home, so you need
to know as much about it as possible to
save unhappy surprises later,” Lampen-
Smith says.
“Knowing the right questions to ask is a
good starting point.”

Your guide to Show Homes & New Sections
in the Selwyn District
A design that covers it all
Ticking all the boxes is Milestone Homes’
well thought out Faringdon showhome.
Reflecting the trend towards three
bedroom homes, there is much to offer
in this 201square metre showhome from
bedroom placement, through to the
effective living area layout. This is a home
that would suit couples, families and those
who might wish to downsize, especially
as there is a four bedroom design also
available.
Sited on a landscaped 666sqm section,
the home is effectively positioned for
sunny indoor/outdoor living, with a
generous back garden area affording the
perfect setting for entertaining or play.
The open plan kitchen/dining/living
space allows the cook to interact with
guests during food preparation, and a
degree of separation where furniture
placement options exist and potential
for a study nook. Double doors access a
separate lounge or media room offering
the option for privacy to watch a movie
or escape for a quiet tête-à-tête, or for
opening up for a still larger living area.
The Trends Kitchens’ design promises
to satisfy with a double sink island where
one can also sit, a beautiful white TriStone
bench top, Fisher and Paykel appliances
(including wall oven and ceramic
cooktop), a generous supply of cupboards,
and a separate walk-in scullery.
There are three good sized bedrooms.
The master has a spacious walk-in robe
and ensuite where clever design means
the 1500mm wide double hanging vanity,
toilet and shower are tucked behind a
wall and not immediately on view when
walking into the room. Double sliders
also give master bedroom access to the
spacious back garden.
The main bathroom has a 1200mm
vanity, corner shower, and separate bath
with tiled front and surrounds. There
is both a separate main toilet and also a
laundry room where a double cupboard,
complete with shelving offers extra storage
space.
The showhome reflects Milestone
Homes’ standard specifications with
just two changes. A skylight has been
incorporated into the kitchen, to add
extra light and illustrate how particular
spaces within a home might be made
brighter. There is also an extra heat pump
in the standard double garage which has
also been fully insulated; illustrating the
difference in warmth that can be achieved
where a garage might be used for more
than just storage.
With Milestone Homes’ large range
of cleverly designed plans and upgrade
options available, reduced design time
translates into a sooner build start while
making it easier, especially for those who
are first time building clients.
The Milestone Homes’ team have
received many favourable comments from
visitors to their Faringdon showhome,
with the general consensus that this is
a home with a great feel. At a starting
price of $372,340 which includes the
standard specifications on view within
the showhome, this is an affordable build
option.
Milestone Homes’ Faringdon
showhome can be found at 5
Lemonwood Drive and is open Fridays to
Sundays from noon until 4pm. For more
information, call 343 0938.
