THE TWO Selwyn police
officers who dragged alleged
mass killer Brenton Tarrant
from a vehicle had come straight
from a training session on how
to deal with armed offenders.
Details of their bravery and
swift actions have come to light
in the past few days.
They were training with
armed offenders’ squad personnel
at The Princess Margaret
Hospital when they were mobilised
to find the central city and
Linwood mosques’ gunman.
The Selwyn Times has decided
not to identify them until police
chiefs reveal their names –
which they are considering.
Instinct led the two officers
to head along Brougham St,
thinking the gunman could
take that route away from the
Linwood mosque. Moments
later they spotted a vehicle
weaving in and out of lanes
with its hazard lights on and
someone fitting the description
of the alleged gunman. They
confirmed the registration was
connected to the shooting, did
a U-turn and began to discuss

from the editor’s desk
JACINDA ARDERN did the two Selwyn
policemen who captured accused gunman
Brenton Tarrant a disservice in my view.
On TV, she described them as “rural
community cops.”
Maybe I’m wrong but it inferred rural
community cops don’t have the skills or training to stop a Brenton
Tarrant. The two Selwyn officers, who smashed their vehicle into
Tarrant’s, pulled him from the vehicle and handcuffed him in a
matter of seconds, are highly trained professionals (see page 1).
The fact they are working in a rural area doesn’t mean they can’t
perform in the most trying of situations, as they demonstrated on
Friday. Their actions were up there with the best specialist police
and army squads in the world.
If I’m wrong in my assumption Jacinda - my humblest
apologies.

Rolleston Fireworks about to implode
Fire rages, homes at risk
District council
unlikely to
take over event
• By Anan Zaki
THE FUTURE of the popular
Rolleston Fireworks event is
under threat.
The organisers have retired and
asked the district council to help
run the annual event – but it says
it doesn’t have the ability to put
it on.
District council chief executive
David Ward recommended the
council not be involved in the
fireworks display as it is not one
of its “core services.”
District councillors voted to
leave the matter on the table
for another month so further
conversations can be held
between council staff and the
Rolleston Residents’ Association
fireworks subcommittee, which
runs the event.
Former subcommittee
chairman Jens Christensen said
he is retiring after 20 years of
involvement due to ill health. His
secretary Trisha Pullin is also set
to retire after 15 years.
The subcommittee has run the
popular fireworks event for 20
years. It attracted about 15,000

people last year.
“The organising committee
have always stipulated that they
still wish to partner with council
to effect this public display of
fireworks. The Achilles heel is
that the chair and secretary have
come to the end of their use by
date,” Mr Christensen said.
Said Mr Ward: “During the
spring and summer months,
council is already running a

significant list of community
events across the district, and
to add the Rolleston Fireworks
would simply be to add to the
exhaustive list, and stretch our
limited resources.”
Residents’ association
chairwoman Leonie MacLachlan
said its other volunteers could
not commit enough time to
running the event.
Said Mrs MacLachlan: “People
in the community need to know
that at this stage it [the fireworks]
is actually not going ahead.”
“We at the Rolleston Residents’
Association are all volunteers.
Unless another group is able to
put their hand up and volunteer,
it is definitely finished,” she said.
In a deputation at last
Wednesday’s district council
meeting, Mr Christensen
disagreed the district council
could not run the event.
“No way can I concur with
the chief executive that council
has no expertise in running
such matters – it has a whole
department involved with
community events,” he said.
The event costs $70,000 to run
and does not make a profit, Mr
Christensen said.
The money from the entry fees
has always been used to run the
following year’s event.

Local policemen do what ‘any cop
CAPTURED: The two Selwyn policemen about to pull Brenton Tarrant from his vehicle in
Brougham St on Friday.
•From page 1
A pursuit was not an option
because of the likelihood of more
carnage and the risk to the public.
So they pulled alongside,
swerved hard left into Tarrant’s
vehicle, brought it to a stand still,
and leapt from their vehicle.
But they saw what appeared to
be explosives and the weapons
that had caused havoc at the
mosques.
Instant decisions had to be
made.
One of the officer’s ran back to
the police vehicle to warn other
armed officers on their way of the
danger.
But he lost sight of Tarrant, and
worried about the safety of his
colleague, abandoned the plan
and went back to the gunman’s
vehicle, at the same time yelling
for the public to stay back.
Guns trained on Tarrant, he
was ripped from the vehicle,
put on the ground and
immobilised.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern
said after the apprehension,
the two officers were from the
Lincoln Police Station.
That was incorrect. One is from
the Lincoln station and the other
from an undisclosed station in
Selwyn.
NZ Police Association
president Chris Cahill said he had
spoken “in depth” to one of the
officers and had been in contact
with the other.
He said he – and the rest of the
police – were extremely proud of
the pair.
Police around the world
had also contacted Mr Cahill
to ask him to pass on their
messages of pride, support and
commendation.
“They’re pretty humble guys,
certainly ‘hero’ is not a word
you’ll hear either of them use,”
Mr Cahill said.
“They acted. They made a
decision, and they acted and they
got a result.”
Mr Cahill said the officers
maintain they were just doing
their job and “any cop would
have done it.”
The officers did not want any
public fanfare or attention.
“They are the sort of people
who want to get on with the job,”
said Mr Cahill.
“But they understand the
response.”
Selwyn MP Amy Adams
told Selwyn Times there was a
sense in the district of gratitude
and amazement at the officers’
bravery.

Celebrating Excellence in Early
Childhood Education & Care!
The team at The Cat’s Pyjamas Preschool & Nursery Rolleston and West
Melton centres are celebrating on being awarded ‘Very Well Placed’ to
provide positive learning outcomes for children, with a 4 Year Review term by
the Education Review Office (ERO), which is the highest possible review term.
The Cat’s Pyjamas Preschool & Nursery
West Melton is the only early childhood
centre in West Melton to have been
awarded this sought after review term,
and The Cat’s Pyjamas Preschool &
Nursery Rolleston is currently the only
centre in Rolleston to have ever received
this ‘Very Well Placed’ term consecutively.
“We are absolutely thrilled that all our
hard work has been recognised by the
Education Review Office as being Very
Well Placed to ensure positive learning
outcomes for children”, says Gavin
Summerfield, who owns and operates
the centres along with wife Tracy. We
set very high standards of achievement
for our children, our teachers and our
management team”.
“Our fantastic teachers work extremely
hard to ensure that children attending
our centres receive only the best quality
of education and care - we are incredibly
fortunate to have them as part of The
Cat’s Pyjamas family”.
Some comments made by ERO about The
Cat’s Pyjamas centres are:
• A strong feature of these centres is the
generously resourced and spacious
indoor and outdoor environments
which enable children to experience a
rich range of learning. Children benefit
from a specialised local curriculum that
supports their physical and cognitive
development.
• A strength of these centres is the
positive relationships evident between
teachers, children, babies and infants,
adults and whānau. Teachers and
leaders are committed to ensuring the
children in their care receive high quality
care and learning.
• Teachers respectful and collaborative
approach results in a strong, stable
team and trusting relationships.
• In the under two areas, teachers ensure
a calm and unhurried pace of care
and learning. Babies and toddlers
experience nurturing and responsive
approaches from their teachers.
Teachers work closely with parents
and whanau to follow children’s home
routines, respond effectively to their
individual cues.
• Teachers support, and extend children’s
play through skilful guidance. This
includes appropriate literacy, and
numeracy in the context of children’s
play, with a strong emphasis on
supporting children to develop social
and emotional competencies.

Mayor breaks deadlock over town centre
• By Anan Zaki
ROLLESTON will be represented
in planning its future town
centre after a debate which forced
Mayor Sam Broughton to break
the deadlock.
At last Wednesday’s district
council meeting, a vote was
made to include councillors
from the Selwyn Central Ward
(representing
Rolleston) in a five
person governance
committee to
deliver the town
centre project.
Five councillors
voted for and
Sam
Broughton
against the
idea to include
Selwyn Central
councillors Mark Alexander and
Nicole Reid, with one abstention.
Mr Broughton voted in
favour to pass the proposal. Cr
Alexander abstained because he
was nominated.
Before the vote, council chief
executive David Ward said in a
report that two or three members
of the governance committee
should be made up of the
council’s property committee
or they should be employees or
associates of the district council.
Mr Ward’s report was strongly
opposed by councillor Craig
Watson.
“If this was about deciding the
lease rates for a Postie Plus or
Burger King for example, then
sure the property committee
should lead the project,” Cr
Watson said.
“But this is about this
[Rolleston] community
who elected four members
to represent them having
democracy followed and clear
local accountability for decision
making,” he said.
Mr Ward reaffirmed there will
be community engagement even
without Rolleston representatives
on the governance committee to
ensure residents get their views
across. Referring to the property
committee chairman Pat
McEvedy, Cr Watson said elected
members should be in place for
their local input, not their skills.
“A councillor who is a farmer
from Ellesmere [Cr McEvedy]
has no more skills on town centre
development than a councillor
who is an environmental
consultant from Selwyn Central,”
Cr Watson said.
HAPPY: District
councillor
Craig Watson’s
push to
include
Rolleston
representation
in its town
centre plan
was a success.

MARTIN
HUNTER
Cr McEvedy took exception to
the comment.
“It’s not the first time I’ve been
assaulted on being a farmer
from Ellesmere . . . I’m quite
proud of it.” He stressed that the
property committee, skilled staff
or external stakeholders should
be involved as this is not just a
Rolleston project.
“This is not Rolleston, this is
a Selwyn centre. This is about
building a solid town centre, a
commercial centre, community
centre, retail centre for Selwyn.”

Central councillors on a

•Abstain: Cr Mark
Alexander
Cr Watson nominated Cr
Alexander and Reid to work in
the entirety of the Rolleston town
centre project as they were both
from the greater Rolleston area.
Cr Alexander is currently
the only Selwyn Central
representative on the six member
property committee – Cr
Watson said his inclusion will
represent both the property
committee and Rolleston.
After the vote, favouring Cr
Watson’s nomination, he said
he was pleased. “I am happy
with the result yesterday, though
disappointed that we needed this
last concerted push to get local
input into this matter.”

Uni rocket sparks criticism
Fire chief
unhappy
with launch
• By Louis Day
ONE OF the region’s top fire
chiefs has joined the criticism
over Canterbury University’s
rocket launch, which led to a
grass fire on tinder dry Banks
Peninsula.
Deputy principal rural fire
officer Al Hutt said the launch
was not handled well.
“The picture we were painted
by the aerospace people (at the
university) was that there was
zero risk of this happening and
I did even ask them what would
happen if it crashed on the spit
and they assured me it wouldn’t
but it clearly did,” he said
yesterday.
Mr Hutt also questioned the
timing of the launch during
a total fire ban season, which
remains in place.
Last week Selwyn Times
revealed Canterbury University’s
UC Aerospace had attempted to
become the first student group in
the world to launch a rocket into
space.
The launch was made from
FIRED UP: Fire bosses are unhappy a student rocket launch
ended up causing a fire on Banks Peninsula.
remote Kaitorete Spit near
Birdlings Flat on March 3.
The rocket did not get out of
the Earth’s atmosphere and came
back down on the spit, causing
a fire. It was supposed to have
crashed into the sea. The fire was
put out by the students involved
in the project before the Little
River Volunteer Fire Brigade
arrived.
Said Little River Volunteer Fire
Brigade acting station officer
Matt Ledgerwood: “With a bit of
bad luck it could have been a lot
worse, luckily the grass was quite
short and there was no wind.”
Rocket launches do not require
a fire permit.
But Fire and Emergency NZ
has the legal ability to prohibit
or restrict activities in certain
circumstances.
Mr Hutt said they would be
taking a harder line with any
future rocket launches.
“In this particular activity, we
have a bit of case history where it
has gone wrong, whereas before
we had nothing. So it would
have been difficult to impose
restrictions on people but now, if
they came back, I would be able
to say last time this happened
so I am going to impose some
restrictions.”
Canterbury University said last
week there were no current plans
for more launches in the area.
The launch was also criticised
by nearby residents.
Little River Wairewa
Community Trust chairman
Robert Burch labelled the rocket
launch as a “silly thing to do.”
“Why are they launching a
rocket when we have a total fire
ban?” he said.
Birdlings Flat resident Sue
Morrow also had concerns.
“It’s bloody stupid doing that at
this time of year when it is tinder
dry,” she said.
The rocket launch was part of
the international race to become
the first university group to blast
a rocket beyond the Karman
line.
The Karman line is 100km
above the earth’s surface and
is widely recognised as the
boundary to outer space.
The University of Southern
California’s rocket propulsion
laboratory set the highest
altitude reached by a
university group in March 2017
with 44km.

$30m upgrade
for Ellesmere
College on way
Fire rages, homes at risk
ELLESMERE College will
undergo a $30 million
redevelopment.
The decision was announced by
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern
and Education Minister Chris
Hipkins on Thursday.
Principal Ronan Bass said 95
per cent of the buildings at the
college are relocatable structures
built in 1980. The buildings are
fast approaching the end of their
lifespan, he said.
“Staff and students are
extremely excited about
the prospect of a school
redevelopment, but are very
aware of the need to ensure that
the rebuild is future-proofed
and adaptable to cope with the
changing nature of education over
the coming decades,” Mr Bass
said.
A design process is due to
be completed by the end of the
year. Ellesmere College board of
trustees chairman Mark Maddren
said the school will engage with
students, staff and the community
in the rebuild process.
“As a result, the board will be
looking at ways to ensure the
community has input into the
design of the new school,” Mr
Maddren said.

Grandchildren inspire book
A HORORATA grandfather’s
bedtime stories have been made
into reality.
Bill Rodger published his series
Rancho Cucamunga Kids, which
was inspired by stories he told his
nine grandchildren on his farm.
“Growing up and to this day I
struggle to read,” the 71-year-old
said.
“So instead of reading stories
to my grand kids, I prefer
to tell them crazy made-up tales
about our adventures on the
farm. These quickly became a real
treat, to the point that my wife
encouraged me to write them all
down,” Mr Rodger said.
Special mention was
given to two of Mr Rodger’s
grandchildren, William, 8, and
Valentina, 5, who lost their
mother Nina [Mr Rodger’s
daughter in-law] to cancer earlier
this year. Her heartbreaking
battle with the disease was
covered in Selwyn Times.
Once they were written, his
family suggested the next logical
step was to enlist the help of local
illustrator Rebecca Gibbs, then
try to publish his stories.
But the publishers weren’t
interested. Undeterred, Mr
Rodger self-published 100 copies
at a time, then took his books to
the big distributors.
“They said the same thing
PUBLISHED: Hororata author Bill Rodger with his grandchildren
Valentina, 5, and William, 8. PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER
though: ‘Nice books, no market’.”
But Mr Rodger was hearing
something different – school
teachers and principals urged
him to keep writing. It then
became his mission to identify
an organisation with a record for
caring. “And I remembered New
World’s Little Gardens [vegetable
and herb grow kit giveaways] and
the massive fun and educational
impact of that, and so for me
to approach New World was an
absolute no-brainer.”
Eventually he won over New
World South Island group
manager Ross Martin via a tough
critic. “I took some of his books
home and gave them to my sevenyear-old
daughter and she loved
them,” said Mr Martin.
“So, we went back to Bill and
started talking, and now we’re
giving away thousands of them
– or 37,800 to be exact – in all 42
New World stores throughout the
South Island.”
•To celebrate the book
series release, New World
shoppers will receive one
of his nine books when they
spend $100 or more.

Lucky escape
for young
motorist
A motorist had a lucky escape
when he lost control of his car and
ended up in a ditch on Ellesmere

Lincoln and Halswell, late on
Saturday. The man in his 20s, who
escaped without injury, said he
was unfamiliar with the snaking

Plan to control quarry dust with water criticised
• By Anan Zaki
WATER CANONS and carts
could be used to control dust
emissions at Fulton Hogan’s
proposed quarry near Weedons.
Details on dust and air quality
featured in a 54-page document
presented to Environment
Canterbury and the district
council last week.
The information was provided
after the regional and district
councils requested more details
about Fulton Hogan’s plans to
quarry at a 170ha site bordered
by Curraghs, Dawsons, Jones
and Maddisons Rds.
Weedons quarry
opponent Simon Moore
said using water canons
and carts would be a
waste of water.
Mr Moore is still
against the idea of a
quarry near Weedons and
Templeton.
“They are going to require a
huge amount of water to do that
[mitigate dust],” he said.
Dust from trucks is also
another issue for quarry
opponents.
Mr Moore referred to trucks
Simon
Moore
leaving the Miners Rd
quarry to highlight
concerns over dust from
trucks.
“The issue is when
trucks leave the quarry,
they’ve been water blasted,
and as they go onto the
road, they’re leaving
deposits of dirt on the
road. And as it drives that turns
into dust,” Mr Moore said.
“Thursday morning after a
heavy dew, I was going past
there [Miners Rd quarry] at nine
o’clock in the morning and you
could hardly see the trucks on
the road for the dust coming off
the road,” he said.
Mr Moore said “millions” of
litres of water would be wasted
on dust mitigation if the quarry
is approved.
Fulton Hogan also addressed
questions about traffic to and
from the proposed quarry.
Based on modelling, it said
most of the traffic would
be east-bound to and from
Christchurch.
The $195 million stage two
of the Southern Motorway is
anticipated to carry most of the
traffic.

Who’s taking part in the
It’s the 45th anniversary
of the Star Media
City2Surf. Reporter Anan
Zaki spoke to some of
the participants aiming
to be at the start line on
Sunday
Aaron Cooper, 43
Mr Cooper is set to take part
in his first City2Surf and will do
the 14km race.
“I just want to keep fit and test
the legs on running the distance.”
Mr Cooper plans to run a
half marathon
(21km) – which
is on his bucket
list – and
believes this is a
step towards the
goal.
“It’s the
Aaron Cooper
first time I’m
running 14km.
I’m a surfer,
I’m not really a runner. I used
to play rugby until I was 21 . .
. and, yeah, it [running] is just
something I’ve always wanted to
do,” he said.
Mr Cooper’s wife often takes
part in multi-sport events but
she will greet him at the finish
line as the couple have two young
children.
“When she gets fit, we’ll
definitely be doing other races as
a team,” he said.
David Clark,
29
Taking part in
the 14km event,
Mr Clark is
looking for a new
challenge. It will
be his second
David Clark time entering the
City2Surf.
“It’s just a wee challenge to just
test myself for a bit of fitness,” he
said.
“[The first time] was good. I
want to try something further, I
did the 6km [last year] and want
to try the 14km.”
He has been training hard
for the event and says he will be
ready for the race on March 24.

Capital gain
to the resident
NEWBIE: Hailey McConchie will be running in her first
City2Surf this year.
“Currently I’m doing it myself
but we’ll see if my partner does it.
That will be just a wait and see.”
Hailey McConchie, 25
The mother of two used to be
focus on body building, but since
having her second child last year,
she’s switched to running.
It will be her first City2Surf.
“I’ve never been a runner.
People who tend to lift weight do
not like cardio whatsoever,” Mrs
McConchie said.
To lose weight after pregnancy,
she took up running. “I’ve lost a
lot of my baby weight . . . I started
an eight-week challenge and lost
about 6kg,” she said.
Getting into running was
difficult.
“At first it felt like a long time
to get running, even that first
kilometre. It felt like ages,” Mrs
McConchie said.
She will be taking part in the
6km event. “Every time I see a
race I just enrol myself and just
build myself in it.”
Mrs McConchie has heard
great things about the City2Surf
but couldn’t take part in it last
year as she had just given birth to
her second child a month before
the event. “I’d like to keep my
running up [this year]. It’s not
something I really enjoy but once
I find my rhythm 2-3km in, that’s
when I can see why some people
are addicted to running,” she
said.
Kelly Clements, 46
Mrs Clements
doesn’t live
far from the
start line near
Centennial Park.
She says the
City2Surf is a
good excuse to
Kelly
Clements
not pay for a gym
membership.
“It’s just my
one thing that makes me head
out and train each year. It’s
not too far being only 14km.
Rather than paying for a gym
membership, I sign up and it
makes me run,” Mrs Clements
said.
This will be her fourth
consecutive City2Surf. “A friend
got me into running and it was
that whole give it a go, it’s a
reasonably flat course and lots of
fun,” she said.

“I’ll be on my own but that
doesn’t matter because it’s so well
set up you don’t really care, you
just run.
“I haven’t stopped [training]
all year but I probably stepped
up distances in the last six weeks.
There might have been a few 5km
runs but I stepped it up to a few
10km.”
Nory Lansing, 28
Being a personal trainer,
Ms Lansing has many friends
and clients taking part in the
City2Surf.
“I’m a runner
in general, I
always like a
challenge in a
run. Living in
Christchurch,
it’s part of the
routine here,” she
said.
It’s her second
time doing the City2Surf. “
It was good fun [last year]

knowing so many runners in the
field. It’s a challenging course
but in saying that it’s just for
yourself really, not so much a

“I do heaps of running with my
clients so I think it’s motivating
and encouraging to be on the
course for them.
I mention it every week
in a [gym] newsletter and during
my running sessions to sign
up and do whatever they can,
running or walking,” Ms Lansing
said.

Kristyn Ferry and Simon
Bradshaw
Simon Bradshaw, 30
Mr Bradshaw was
convinced by his partner
Kristyn Ferry to take part in
the 14km event.
“She did it last year and
enjoyed it and this year she’s
going to do it again. She said
she’d like me to do it with her
and I said why not.”
“She’s doing it more for a
social, keep fit aspect than it is for
a competitive aspect. So I’ve got
the same kind of idea to be doing
it to keep fit and healthy rather
than making the top 10,” he said.
Mr Bradshaw trains most days.
He has never entered a running
event before.
“I think I’ll be a bit nervous on
the day [of the race]. Just nervous
trying to get to the end,” Mr
Bradshaw said.
Seamus Tredinnick, 30
Running in the 6km event, Mr
Tredinnick, who is a keen sailor,
will be returning
to the event
for the second
consecutive year.
“My wife [Emily]
is a keen runner
and has done a
few marathons
so she’ll be doing
the 14km run,”
he said.
“Basically, at
Seamus
Tredinnick
least if I sign up for an event, it
gives me a bit of motivation to
work towards to getting me out
and running, which is probably a
good thing,” Mr Tredinnick said.
“When you’ve got a peg in
the ground it’s easier to move
towards that goal,” he said.
Mr Tredinnick’s goal is to
finish the event.

Biodiversity
protection
group formed
A WORKING group has been
formed to protect the district’s
biodiversity.
The district council’s
biodiversity programmes are
guided and empowered by
legislation and policies, as well as
the Selwyn District Plan, which
is currently being reviewed.
As part of the review, a
biodiversity working group has
been established, made up of key
stakeholders and landowners
with an active interest in the
protection of ecosystems and
indigenous biodiversity.
Said district council biodiversity
coordinator Andrew
Spanton: “Our priority is the
protection of existing biodiversity
– particularly native plants.
Indigenous biodiversity is generally
considered more important
than planted biodiversity as it
contains the original assemblage
of plants, insects and soil biota.”
Mr Spanton works with
landowners, community groups,
local and central government
agencies, and other stakeholders
to protect and restore indigenous
biodiversity. A major part of
his role is to run the district
council’s significant natural area
programme.

A VOLUNTARY organisation
helping those in need is
celebrating 40 years of service.
Community Care Lincoln was
established with the help of the
Lincoln Rotary Club in 1979
to provide ‘meals on wheels’ in
rural areas.
Former Community Care
chairman and volunteer for 17
years, Pat Nicholas, said the
organisation has about 100
dedicated volunteers and it
couldn’t run without them.
“The things we do, meals on
wheels is a major one we do five
days a week. Delivery meals to
those who are still in their own
homes and are incapable or don’t
have the ability to put together
a good meal to keep them
sustained in their own home,”
Mr Nicholas said.
“Another core value of
Community Care is to keep
people out of hospitals as they
are more happy and comfortable
living in their own homes,” he
said.
Elderly people living alone are
most often in need of help.
“That [elderly care] was the
basis of setting it up. But we’ve
extended into helping families,
young and old, new residents to
Lincoln who are moving in and
Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi
need to find their way around the
area,” Mr Nicholas said.
The biggest changes since
being set up in 1979 has been its
premises.
When Community Care first
opened, it was run out of a rented
facility on Williams St, Lincoln,
before moving to a purpose-built
facility on Gerald St in 1980.
Community Care then
moved to its current district
council-built facility on
Lyttelton St in 2013.
The organisation has been
largely unaffected by the
population boom in the district,
Mr Nicholas said.
“The biggest challenge has
been to get the word out to the
new people in Lincoln and the
surrounding area that we’re there
to service for them.”
To mark 40 years, Community
Care will hold an open day on
Sunday.

Lincoln Uni’s new basketball coach
• By Jacob Page
LINCOLN University’s new
men’s basketball coach Tyla
Harrison-Hunt will have some
familiar faces with him when
the season gets under way next
month.
The 27-year-old former
Aranui academy and Otago
representative, spent last year as
an assistant with South Island
secondary school champions
Cashmere
High School.
He has lured
South Island
finals and
Thomson
Trophy MVP
Nic Wenmoth
Tyla
Harrison-Hunt
to his team, as
well as former
Hillmorton
High School captain Ihaia
Kendrew.
“Making the switch for this
year is the hardest decision I
could have made,” he said.
“Lincoln approached me with
this opportunity and it was a
case of going with my head or
my heart . . . and I went with my
head.”
He said it was great to have
a couple of familiar faces in
Wenmoth and Kendrew on his
squad.
“I want them both to be solid
contributors in whatever role I
give them, ” he said.
Nic is a scorer while Ihaia is an
all-round point guard.
“Whenever you have rookies
on the floor, I just want them to
be solid defenders.”
He said Kendrew’s experience
playing premier basketball and
Wenmoth’s “gritty nature”
would serve them well.
Although there would be more
expectations at Lincoln than
there was at Cashmere, he said
the squad have a youthful look.
“We are a small squad and
quite young,” Harrison-Hunt
said.
“Everyone but one player is
Are you a new business or
organisation in Selwyn?
You need to let people know
who you are, where you are and
how to find you.
also in the under-23 squad.”
He said with a young squad,
he believes he’ll have to go
on the adventure with the
team as opposed to being a
disciplinarian.
“If anything I’ll need to be a
big brother more than that large
coaching figure,” he said.
“We are a guard-heavy team
but that’s okay because I used to
play guard and the systems we
run are similar to what we had
in Otago and the Aranui
academy.”
SPORT
OPPORTUNITY:
Former
Cashmere High
School player
Nic Wenmoth,
attempting
a lay-up, has
followed his old
assistant coach
to Lincoln
University.

club’s link to

A COUPLE OF cup cakes helped
Rolleston’s Affinity Gymnastics
Academy purchase equipment
from the 48th artistic world
championships in Doha, Qatar,
last year.
The club, which opened in
October at the Izone, has grown
from 160 members to 330 in just
six months.
One of the main driving forces
behind the club, president Ryan
Jones, said after he was told by a
supplier the equipment used at
the world championships would
be available, he knew it was an
opportunity too good to pass up.
“We bought the competition
floor, which is a 15 x 15, fully
sprung gymnastics floor, we
have a competition beam, the
asymmetric bars and a whole
bunch of matting for competition
landings. The link with the
Freemasons was a weird one
because we were doing a bake
sale last year and this chap came
up and bought a couple of cup
cakes and he engaged me in
conversation about what we were
trying to do.”
“They approached us and
asked us what we’d like their
help with and we said the
asymmetric bars would cost
$2500 and sure enough that’s
what they gave us.”

Confident Leeston-Southbridge ready for final
Bid to win first
one-day title
in six years
LEESTON-Southbridge believe
they have the balance right
to win their first Canterbury
country premier one-day cricket
title in six years on Saturday.
The team will face Southbrook
at Rangiora’s Main Power Oval
after both teams survived tight
semi-finals a fortnight ago.
Both teams finished with the
same eight win, three loss record
during the season, with Leeston-
Southbridge winning the only
45-over encounter between the
two teams by nine wickets on
February 23.
Leeston-Southbridge
captain Chris Beatson said
in spite of having the most
consistent batting line-up in the
competition, their bowlers will
need to execute their plans well
to secure the victory.
“You get less room for error on
a good batting track like Main
Power and equally you have to
take your chances when you get
a loose ball when you’re batting,”
he said.
Leeston-Southbridge have five
batsmen averaging above 25 this

It will be the second time
Prebbleton has sent an under-16
team to the Gold Coast, having
first done it in 2017.
Club vice president Telsa
Buckley said the trip will become a
bi-annual event aimed at keeping
players in rugby.
“For us, it’s a strategy around
how to keep boys interested in
rugby at that age,” she said.
“Two years ago, it was a huge
learning curve for them, but when
they left they were at the bottom
of the Ellesmere competition
and when they came back, the

year and Beatson said their depth
has allowed them to make the
final.
“Everyone has chipped in and
done a role for us this year, where
as the past couple of years we’ve
relied on a couple of guys pretty
heavily,” he said.
Two stand-outs this year with
team bond had changed so much
that they ended up winning the
competition.”
A squad of at least 20 will
depart for the week-long tour on
July 14.
Games against the Helensvale
Hogs and Coomera Crushers have
been confirmed with more likely.
Last year, Prebbleton was part
of a combined under-16 team with
Rolleston due to a lack of numbers
but they have a full squad this
year.
“The hope is that these players
will become under-18 players, colts
players and eventually premier
players in the future.”
Buckley said each player had
to fundraise $2000 but the squad
used it as a way to bond.
The team will be coached
by Mark Buckley who will be
assisted by Jamie Graham and
Jade Britain.
both the bat and ball have been
Ben Chamberlain and Tim
Gruijters.
Chamberlain, who missed
last season through injury, has
scored 388 runs in 16 innings
at an average of 35 and taken 18
wickets at an average of 14.
Gruijters has added 15 wickets
at an average of just under 10.
He’s also scored 232 runs at an
average of 25.
Beatson said his team will need
to avoid being overawed by the
situation and just do their jobs.
“We know Southbrook have a
strong batting line-up and with
a former Black Cap in Shanan
SPORT
Stewart in the mix, we know
they’ll have plenty of firepower.”
Southbrook captain Tom
Rodden said they have a squad of
14 who all have the prospect of
playing.
“We’ve got seven guys who can
bowl nine overs, but we have to
look at the size of Main Power
as a ground to make sure our
fielding is up to standard. I’d
have confidence in our
No 11 to go out there with 30
runs still to get. We bat very
deep.”
Opener Matt Brine has stood
out this year. He has scored 372
runs at an average of 28, while
Stewart is averaging 54 in his
seven innings this year.
Rodden said the opening
bowling combination of Luan
Blom and Sam Ermerins is one of
the best in the competition, while
veteran Darryn Boyle who is
approaching 400 wickets for the
club, is a key part of the bowling
attack.
Rodden said his team have
preferred to chase totals this year
but the pitch will decide the best
option at the toss on Saturday.

Local basketball skills
on show
Over 60 keen competitors and supporters participated in Sunday’s highly anticipated Summer
3X3 Basketball Jam, a new event for Summer in Selwyn.
Faringdon Court played host to the event, and everyone both off and on court gave it their all with
great skills, teamwork, three-point shots, blocks and loud cheers of support.
FLAVA radio station joined in the fun bringing a spinning wheel with prizes, commentary, support
and music creating an awesome atmosphere.
Ruby, 10, from Rolleston entered a girls team with a friend and another girl she had never met
prior to this event.
“I love playing basketball and I’m having heaps of fun!” she said.
Supporters enjoyed the close, exciting games which catered for all ages and abilities, with teams
from 10–14 year olds to adults coming from Leeston and Christchurch.
Special thanks to Faringdon who sponsored the event.
Summer in Selwyn is almost over with just a few events remaining for this year. Go to the Summer
in Selwyn Facebook page for information and get down to one of events before time runs out!
Takeaway coffee cups go in the red bin
Disposable takeaway coffee cups go in your red lid rubbish bin.
They are lined with plastic to make them waterproof so your drink doesn’t leak, but
unfortunately this makes them unable to be processed through the recycling plant.
Coffee cups can’t go in your organics bin either, even if it’s marketed as
‘compostable’ or ‘biodegradable’.
We cannot currently accept these in our composting process.
Better yet, why not get a keep cup?

New public toilets coming to Lincoln Domain
A new toilet block is being installed in Lincoln as part of a planned facilities upgrade.
A new four-pan toilet, currently being installed at Lincoln Domain at a cost of $186,800, replaces the old
toilet facility which was in use for about 30 years. The new toilets are expected to be completed this month.
Council Community Projects Manager Cam Warr says the new Lincoln toilets will provide locals and
visitors with a quality facility.
“The old toilet was a bit old and tired. The new toilets also help to meet the demand of an increasing
number of visitors to the area,” Mr Warr says.
In November 2017, the Council upgraded the toilets at Ryton Bay ($57,625).
“These events do not define us …”
Message from the Mayor
Following the tragic events of last Friday, Mayor Sam Broughton
sent the following message to the ethnic and migrant communities
of Selwyn, and we share it here with the wider district.
Greeting to all our friends in Selwyn’s ethnic communities.
To our Muslim community especially, I extend the deepest sympathy
and support from our Council and on behalf of the wider Selwyn
community.
The events in Christchurch have shocked us all. This incident goes
completely against everything we stand for in New Zealand and
in Selwyn. We are a welcoming place, opening our community
to people of all backgrounds, nationalities, faiths and cultures.
We embrace the diversity and richness you have brought to our
community, and we are all the better for your presence here.
So today we stand and grieve alongside those who are feeling such
deep loss and sadness after this incident.
To all our ethnic and migrant communities, we offer our support
and our reassurance that we will continue to work with you and
alongside you to build communities where you are welcomed and
are safe.
I encourage all Selwyn people to continue to reach out to friends
and family, neighbours and visitors, of all backgrounds and
cultures, and offer the support, warmth and aroha that make our
communities strong.
These events do not define us – it is our love and compassion for
one another in the wake of such events that define us.

Remembrance boards available at libraries
Selwyn residents who would like to leave a message of support

From Russia, via China – and
now a Kiwi
It’s around 10,000 kilometres from Vladivostok, Russia to Lincoln –
and it’s also been a long journey for new New Zealand citizen
Yulia Potts.
Yulia and her daughter Elina, from Russia’s far east, were two of
the Selwyn residents who received New Zealand citizenship at a
ceremony in Rolleston this month.
Yulia and Elina arrived in Canterbury in 2007 – but it was a stop
in China that led them here. Yulia met her future husband, a Kiwi,
during a visit to Beijing 14 years ago. “When he told me he was from
New Zealand I thought that’s just so far away, and nothing would
come of it,” Yulia says. “But in the end we decided – why not?”
The family initially settled in Christchurch, and were buying their
first home when the earthquakes intervened. “So we built a house
in Lincoln, and settled there. We’ve been here about four years, and
we’re absolutely loving it here. I do art classes at home for children,
I’m very much into the community, and we’ve got to know lots of
beautiful people.”
Elina, who attends high school in Christchurch, was born in Russia
and still remembers a bit of what it was like. “It’s very different here,
but I’m enjoying it. I really enjoy the clear air, the weather and places
to walk.”
Yulia says becoming a New Zealand citizen was very special. “It was
a long journey, but it is very, very heartwarming for me,” she says.

Island sales manager for The Travel
Corporation, which involved
representing the company’s award
winning travel products to travel agents
and consumers throughout the South
Island, from Invercargill to Nelson,”
Reece says. “By then I’d been in the
industry for a long time and I just felt
the need to challenge myself again.”
In order to forge a new career path,
Reece knew he needed to retrain. “I’ve
always enjoyed working with food and
have had experience in the industry
before so I wanted to brush up on my
skills and seek employment in cookery.”
Reece says he chose to study at Ara
Institute of Canterbury because of its
reputation as a world-class tertiary
training centre. “The cookery school
at Ara has a reputation for preparing
students to a high standard and giving
them the best skills for employment.
They also have great facilities and
inspiring, knowledgeable tutors.”
One of those tutors is Stuart
Goodall, who’s had a hand in
training many students who’ve
gone on to become top chefs,
both here and overseas. “He really
knows his stuff,” Reece says. “He
bestows his knowledge to us in
a very relaxed way that’s easy to
understand.”
While Reece undertakes his
cookery course, he’s getting
to put his training into
practice at Ara’s on-campus
restaurant, Visions. “It’s
great to see how it all works,
from when an order comes
in right through to producing
a saleable product for paying
customers. It’s giving me the skills
and preparation to be ready for
employment.”
Reece is keen to encourage others
– especially those who aren’t happy
in their current career - to follow
his example and study towards a
new career. “Definitely do it,” he
says. “Retraining has prepared
me really well for employment
in this industry.”

Wasps more common
A WASP that has become
increasingly more common
over the last decade or two
is the European tube wasp,
Ancistrocerus gazella.
It established in
Auckland in 1987
from Europe and has
progressively moved
southwards as far as
Southland.
These are potter wasps, a
solitary species that
collect and paralyse as
many as 30 caterpillars and
place them into a tubular
nest which is sealed with
mud.
The caterpillars
are predominately
leafroller species, mostly
horticultural pests, which
are consumed by the wasp
larvae in the single-celled
nest.
Though adults are striped
black and yellow like the
nasty vespula wasps, the
European tube wasp is
much shorter, with an

Beautiful gardens create appeal
A beautifully landscaped lawn and
garden create the finishing touches to the
curb appeal of every home and property.
Figuring out what landscape components
you want in your outdoor area can be
difficult, particularly when there are so
many options but often a fresh eye can give
you a new perspective.
Engaging an expert like Sharon from
Sharon Crofts Landscape Design can
make a huge difference to the look of your
outdoor area, resulting in a garden that
excudes that professional touch.
Sharon covers all aspects of landscape
design from the initial site consultation
to preparing design concepts and
planting proposals, making it easy for the
homeowners to implement themselves if
that want to. If not Sharon Crofts Landscape
Design has a team of experienced and
professional contracts who will complete
the work to exacting standards.
They work throughout Canterbury
including residential properties, rural
and lifestyle blocks and new subdivisions,
particularly in the Selwyn area.
Sharon enjoys working collaboratively
with her clients and transforming initial
plans into reality within budget and on
time. Her many years of experience also
help when it comes to what planting works
in the Canterbury climate and with local
soils.
With the advent of cooler weather it is
prudent to up keep lawn maintenance
such as topdressing and fertilising to boost
new growth.
If you are thinking of creating a new area
within your garden new plants will make
better progress now that the hot summer
months are over and, if planted now,
they will make some good growth during
autumn.
It is also a good time to think about
plants that may not be in the right position.
They could be wrenched in autumn (dug
around) and uplifted during the winter
months.
“Of course not all plants are keen on this
so it is best to get some professional advice
on which plants may or may not easily
shift,” says Sharon.
Whether your landscape project is
small or large give Sharon a call at

Putting the heat on for winter
Heatstore originated in Rolleston in
the late 1990’s relocating to Sockburn in
2007 enabling the business to become the
successful retailer it is today. Many staff are
“westies” and maintain close connections
with the community.
Director Trevor Hale and Installation
Manager Shannon Dunnett grew up in
Selwyn and are “stalwarts” of the West
Melton Rugby Club. Shannon is also a
handy Weedons club cricketer.
“These clubs have proven invaluable as a
source of fit country lads who have become
valuable, longstanding employees,” says Jill
Ineson, Showroom Manager.
Several Heatstore staff have racing
connections. Co-director Wendy Mills is a
racehorse owner, sponsor and supporter of
the Canterbury Jockey Club.
Joint Directors Wendy and Trevor
recently stepped back from running
Heatstore to focus on their Pellet Fire
Solutions Company importing the
Blaze King, Ravelli and Enviro brands
directly from the Canadian and Italian
manufacturers to supply a nationwide
network. They are about to relocate from
the present warehouse into a newly owned
and purpose-built facility in the Rolleston
I-Port Industrial Park.
“The buck stops with Heatstore,” says
Jill. “If you’re after a new fire we’ll assist
you with selecting the model best suited
to your home, our own installers will fit it
and ensure that you receive full after sales
support and service.”
Heatstore stocks the “best of the best”
log and pellet fire options available in New
Zealand from Blaze King, Masport, Nectre,
Pyroclassic, Woodsman, Ferva and Bionic
log fires plus Ravelli and Enviro wood
pellet fires that are whisper quiet and WiFi
compatible.
Blaze King fires are exclusive to Heatstore
in Christchurch and are a real success story.
They burn approximately 30 per cent less
wood than a conventional fire, will burn
24/7 if necessary and are classified as Ultra
Low Emission Burning.
The most important feature and real
point of difference is the thermostat which
enables the fire to produce controlled, even
heat all day and night long.

Backyard seasonal maintenance:
Gardening tools
Yes, it’s getting near that time of the year
again. Autumn is coming so its time to
start thinking about your end of summer
clean up starting with your gardening tools.
There’s just enough time to get them sorted
before you’re swamped with all those
autumn leaves and find yourself spending
all your time on the end of a rake.
Keeping your gardening tools clean and
in tip-top shape means a much happier time
spent in the gardening. As with all tools, for
longevity, it pays to keep them under cover
when not in use – in the garden shed or
garage.
Wheelbarrow
Often referred to as the workhorse of
the garden, the wheelbarrow makes light
work of heavy and cumbersome jobs such
as moving soil, mulch, rocks, and plants. A
good solid wheelbarrow looked after and
well maintained can last in your garden
shed for many years.
Always hose your wheelbarrow down
after a particularly dirty job to prevent the
barrow or bucket from rusting. Try not to
leave a full wheelbarrow out in the rain for
days, as this can accelerate the rust; instead
empty the wheelbarrow as soon as possible.
To keep the wheel in good working order,
give the axle bearings a squirt with the grease
gun. Check the tyre regularly as a deflated
tyre will make using the wheelbarrow hard
work. To maintain pressure, make sure it is
kept inflated – use an old bicycle pump or
an electric pressure pump.
Lawnmower
Regular cleaning after each use will
help keep your lawnmower in good
mowing condition. Always make sure
the lawnmower is turned off (you could
remove the spark plug to be extra safe) or
unplugged (if electric) before you begin to
clean it. Use a stiff brush (a hearth brush
with a handle works well) to clean off any
freshly mown grass and clumps of dried
grass and dirt.
Carefully turn the lawnmower on to its
side and hose off, with a fine jet of water,
the remaining grass and dirt – make sure
you get into any hidden crevices. Use gloves
if you need to use your hands to remove
any clumps and take special care around
the sharp blades. A light spray of cooking
oil may help stop grass clinging on to your
blades.
Always keep the blades sharp for a good
cut; blunt blades tend to rip the grass with a
resulting bedraggled finish.
Garden tools
This is a good time to clean, disinfect and
sharpen those gardening tools.
To clean, use one tablespoon of
dishwashing liquid to one bucket of hot
water. Soak garden tools for 2-3 minutes,
and then scrub lightly with a brush to
loosen and remove any solid soil and plant
matter. For secateurs, scour the blades
lightly with an abrasive pad using long slow
strokes. Rinse thoroughly in warm water.
Dry with a soft cloth and then leave to air
dry for 5-10 minutes. To prevent rust, use
a cloth dipped in vegetable oil and spray
lubricant.
To disinfect between uses on different
plant species, use one part household
bleach, or tea tree oil, to 10 parts water. Dip
secateurs, trowels, etc. into the solution for
around 30 seconds. Rinse clean with water
and allow to air dry or use a soft cloth to
dry.
To keep your tools sharp all year round
take your tools to a tool-sharpening
specialist for a professional finish.

Perfect time for
that new pool
It is the perfect time for Selwyn home
owners to be considering installing a pool
in their back garden with Lagoon Pools.
The company, owned by Julie and
Warren Hastings, has some special offers
to encourage winter installs before end of
July 2019.
“Winter is an ideal time for installation
and allows for plenty of time for finishing
work and landscaping rather than waiting
until closer to summer which is always
our busiest time,” says Julie.
Lagoon Pools installs pools in sizes
to suit both large and small sections,
ranging from three metres to 12 metres
in length with a variety of widths, colours
and shapes.
“While large pools are great for bigger
spaces, small pools in small spaces are
ideal for exercise and relaxation.”
Lagoon Pools is the Leisure Pools
dealer for the South Island featuring
100% composite fibre glass and, with
patented innovations, every swimming
pool is supported by Leisure Pools’
lifetime structural warranty and a lifetime
structural osmosis warranty.
Additional features including pool
lighting and fountains can enhance
the pool area transforming it into an
extended living space where family and
friends can relax in the outdoors, Julie
says.
It takes around five days to install a pool
and the finishing touches can take four to
eight weeks depending upon the design.
Not only does Lagoon Pools install the
pool, they can offer the complete package
including the additional features.
“It is always very satisfying to see
a project through from concept to
installation, turning a vision into reality
for our many customers.”
For more information about Lagoon
Pools and the out-of-season offers
contact Julie or Warren Hastings by
phoning 0800 927 282 or 349 2160.

Saving time, money
and water on your
irrigation needs
Now the hot days of summer are almost
over, it is a great time to think about
upgrading your watering system to some
of the latest cost effective and easy to use
automated options, according to Phil
Hudson from locally owned company
Freeman Irrigation.
The latest technology comes into play
with automated WiFi – the sprinklers can
be connected to weather station forecasts
so if rain is expected the amount of water
is reduced.
Automatic systems save water by
irrigation at the correct time of day,
minimising evaporation.
Being able to operate your system
remotely also means you can adjust the
flow at any time to suit the conditions,
saving water and money and a built-in
water system not only adds value to your
property but they also work while you are
way on holiday.
“We have a range of smartphone
controllers and rain sensors that can be
fitted to most systems, allowing to have
easy control from anywhere. If you want
to save money and conserve water a good
rain sensor is an affordable solution,” says
Phil.
Heading into the cooler months is also
a great time for maintenance on your
irrigation systems after the hot summer.
Some of the basic problems include clogged
sprinklers; leaking sprinklers and valves;
obstructed sprinklers; leaking/blocked
solenoid valves; overspray onto footpaths,
streets or buildings; design problems;
missing nozzles or pipe leaks and breaks.
Freeman Irrigation has a range of
irrigation services, not just for residential
homes but also parks, golf courses,
horticultural and viticultural properties,
sub-divisions and commercial properties.
You can visit Phil and the Freeman
Irrigation team at the Canterbury Home
Show from Friday 22 to Sunday 24 March
2019 at Horncastle Arena.

Go to the Malvern Show
This year is the 120th Malvern Show that
is being held at Sheffield on Saturday 23
March with a theme of ‘What is great about
Malvern?’.
To commemorate their 120th year
two special medals and sashes are being
awarded – one to the Supreme Livestock
Exhibit and one to the Supreme Indoor
Exhibit.
There will be something for everyone
including craft and clothing stalls, ringside
entertainment, a huge range of food options
and live music including the NZ Army
Band who will play two mini concerts.
They will also have a display and set up an
obstacle course for the older children.
Other entertainment includes the
Ellesmere Pipe Band and the Sheffield
School Kapa Haka Group along with
Pedalmania and the Dog Race.
If the public are bringing their dog for
the dog race (or any other dog events at the
show), the dogs have to have been dosed
with a praziquantel drug for sheep measles
at least 48 hours or one month prior to
the show, evidence of this will need to be
shown at the gate before entry is allowed.
Wood chopping, a stock and station
horse competition and speed shearing are
also happening this year along with some
novelty events including the Ride n Rev
and the Three Bar Event.
Ride and Rev is a one or two person event
where one competitor will jump a horse
around a show jumping course then tag the
team member who will sack jump over to
a waiting vehicle and they will then drive
it through an obstacle course to the finish
line. The event will be timed with time
faults given for refusals, rails down and
cones knocked over. And the fastest time
wins.
Also for the horses is the Brickwall
jumping competition which starts at 70cm
and will gradually increase until the last
brick in the wall is knocked over. Entries
are $10 on the day with an awesome prize
of $500.

your compost bin and you
will make your plants very
happy. Marilyn Wightman
reports
THESE HERBS are well-known
for enhancing the compost
bin process. All provide trace
minerals they absorb when
growing. With the exception of
comfrey, which is available as a
plant, all the rest can be grown
from seed.
CHAMOMILE
Either the annual German
chamomile (matricaria
chamomilla) or the perennial
Roman chamomile )
chamaemelum nobile, syn.
anthemis nobilis) can be grown.
After peak flowering time, trim
the herbs back and add the fine,
feathery foliage to the compost
bin.
COMFREY
This herb (Symphytum
officinale) is loaded with
minerals extracted from
the soil – calcium, potassium,
phosphorus, iron, magnesium,
sulphur, copper and zinc.
Comfrey leaves can be picked
all summer and allowed to wilt
for two days before adding to

the bin. As comfrey grows in
one patch and readily regrows
from any broken stem or root, it
needs a dedicated area where it
can flourish.
DANDELION (above)
Taraxacum officinale contains
good levels of potassium, iron
and copper. If unwanted in the
garden, it can be recycled into
compost.
NETTLE
Urtica dioica is known to
have high levels of calcium and
potassium salts, silicic acid
and iron. This valuable herb
can be cultivated in the garden,
preferring dappled shade to

flourish, or it can be
harvested from a waste
area where it commonly
grows under trees. Make
sure good thick gloves
are worn to harvest the
plants, as the high silica
content in the leaf and
stem hairs give a sharp
sting to bare skin.
VALERIAN
Valeriana officinalis
grows up to 2m in
summer. Chop down
the spent growth in
autumn and place in the
bin. It has magnesium,
potassium and copper,
along with small amounts of
lead and zinc.
YARROW
Absorbing manganese,
copper, potassium, iron and
iodine from the soil, achillea
millefolium is regarded by
some as the best compost herb.
Pick bunches from the garden
or waste area and allow to wilt
first before adding to the bin.
Yarrow grows from suckers that
will colonise an area quickly.
The red yarrow is the preferred
medicinal variety. Flowering
most of summer, cut back to
the base in autumn and put the
waste into the bin.
Garlic – the ideal
companion plant
WE ALL know garlic wards off
vampires, but did you know it
also keeps away aphids, apple
scab, leaf-curl and mosquitoes?
Crush a few cloves, soak in a
litre of water for a couple of days
and use as a spray to keep at bay
ants, spiders, caterpillars and
cabbage and tomato worms too.
And, did you also know, it’s
said to provide many health
benefits I’m not qualified to list?
To put it simply, garlic’s right
up there with marigolds as the
companion plant every garden
should have.
And this month, specifically
the shortest day of the year – 21
June, is the time to plant it.
Look for a well-drained spot
– pots, hanging baskets or any

Fire rages, homes at risk
available space in your raised
garden will suit.
If you’re growing it for its
guardian capabilities, plant it
next to your roses to ward off
aphids, beneath apple and peach
trees to prevent apple scab
and leaf-curl, and next to your
tomatoes to protect against red
spider.
Dig in some compost, and
nitrophoska blue fertiliser or use
a potting mix if you’re planting
in baskets or pots.
Plant single cloves twice
the depth of the actual clove,
compost over the top and don’t
fill in with soil.
Then harvest on the longest
day of the year – 21 December.
It’s as easy as that.

Priced to sell!
My vendors are keen to move on to the next
project and have priced this property to sell, so
you definitely need to put this stunning property
at the top of your list to view!
With the mix of cedar and brick cladding this
property has striking street appeal and certainly
doesn’t disappoint.
The large open plan kitchen dining living area is
light and bright and captures lots of sun. There
is great bench space and a large walk in pantry.
The separate lounge is another great room to
host guests, or use for the kids to spread out in.
With fantastic double stackers leading off both
living areas out to the sun-baked patio area
and manageable back yard, great for both the
summer barbecues or for kicking the soccer ball
around.
