Leeston bus service could be axed<br />
• By Anan Zaki<br />
A TRIAL bus service could be<br />
pulled due to low patronage.<br />
Environment Canterbury said<br />
its Leeston to Christchurch route<br />
has had low usage since the trial<br />
started in late January.<br />
The bus leaves Leeston at 7am<br />
and returns at 5.50pm on weekdays<br />
and averages 28 passengers<br />
a day.<br />
ECan senior public transport<br />
manager Stewart Gibbon said<br />
unless patronage rises, current<br />
passenger numbers are not high<br />
enough to continue the service<br />
long-term.<br />
“We saw strong support from<br />
the Leeston community for a<br />
commuter service during the<br />
survey process late last year. We<br />
encourage the community to<br />
make good use of the route now<br />
so that it can be extended,” he<br />
said.<br />
Leeston Community<br />
Committee chairman Lloyd<br />
Clausen urged more people to<br />
take up the service but also said<br />
not everyone is able to use the<br />
current bus.<br />
He said the current service<br />
does not accommodate all<br />
residents.<br />

A FORMER police anti-terrorist squad<br />
member has given a rare insight into what<br />
would have been going through the minds<br />
of the two <strong>Selwyn</strong> policemen who captured<br />
the accused mosque gunman.<br />
Mike Kyne led one of the ATS squads<br />
which found and mortally wounded David Gray after his<br />
murderous rampage at Aramoana back in November, 1990 (see<br />
pages 6-7).<br />
He outlines the split second decisions the two guys had to<br />
make, the conversations they almost certainly would have been<br />
having, and the decision on why not to shoot the alleged gunman<br />
dead.<br />
Kyne is correct in saying no one would have cared if they did.<br />
But they are New Zealand police and that is the difference – and<br />
a good one at that – between us and police overseas.<br />

Why you have to pay for playground<br />
$70k bill to<br />
repair private<br />
development<br />
• By Anan Zaki and Julia Evans<br />
THE DISTRICT council has<br />
revealed why ratepayers are<br />
footing the $70,000 bill to<br />
repair a playground built by a<br />
subdivision developer.<br />
Levi Park playground off<br />
Strauss Drive, Rolleston, was<br />
built by developers Gillman<br />
Wheelans in 2014, but it was<br />
constructed on poor soil, causing<br />
the playground to slump late last<br />
year.<br />
District council property and<br />
commercial manager Douglas<br />
Marshall said Gillman Wheelans<br />
maintenance responsibility<br />
ended in 2015.<br />
“In reviewing the reasons for<br />
this problem, the council has<br />
considered whether there are<br />
any liability issues on Gillman<br />
Wheelans, and it does not<br />
believe there are,” he said.<br />
“Gillman Wheelans has<br />
provided engineering and other<br />
expertise during the past six<br />
months and continues to assist<br />
the council as requested.”<br />
The geo-technical report<br />
commissioned by the district<br />
SLUMP: Ratepayers are footing the $70,000 bill to fix a<br />
playground in Rolleston.<br />
council late last year identified<br />
that parts of the playground site<br />
had historically been filled with<br />
poor compaction, which was<br />
likely to have occurred some<br />
years ago when the land was<br />
used for agricultural purposes.<br />
“The site investigations also<br />
showed that the ground is made<br />
up of mainly soft soil, which<br />
naturally struggles to drain,<br />
and that the drainage had failed<br />
within the playground site.”<br />
Mr Marshall said this resulted<br />
in the playground site becoming<br />
waterlogged, which contributed<br />
to parts of the structure<br />
slumping.<br />
“The council has never had<br />
issues with ground conditions<br />
impacting on playgrounds such<br />
as this,” he said.<br />
“In the future it will be<br />
mindful if similar ground<br />
conditions are identified to<br />
consider the type of engineering/<br />
drainage being installed by the<br />
developer.”<br />
It was dubbed New Zealand’s<br />
first “smart playground” with<br />
augmented reality markers<br />
which would give instructions<br />
for games when scanned by a<br />
smartphone.<br />
The land is currently being<br />
remediated. A geo-technical<br />
engineer advised the council<br />
that this issue is isolated to<br />
the playground area and does<br />
not affect nearby residential<br />
properties.<br />
The old playground equipment<br />
is being replaced with lighter<br />
equipment to prevent future<br />
slumping, Mr Marshall said.<br />
“The new playground<br />
equipment will be more suitable<br />
for the remediated site. Our<br />
thanks to nearby residents for<br />
their patience and support as we<br />
work to make Levi Park a safe<br />
playground for the community,”<br />
he said.<br />
Drainage work started in<br />
November and is expected to be<br />
completed at the end of the week.<br />
A new climbing structure<br />
being imported from Germany<br />
is expected to be installed at Levi<br />
Park in late May.<br />
The playground is likely to reopen<br />
in June.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
FIERY TRIP TO WORK<br />
A woman on her way to work<br />
was left “shaken” after her<br />
vehicle caught fire, Hororata<br />
Volunteer Fire Brigade chief fire<br />
officer Bruce Sayer said. The<br />
engine caught fire last Tuesday<br />
about 8am and, while Mr Sayer<br />
said the vehicle was left “totally<br />
burnt,” the owner got out<br />
uninjured. “The engine ran out<br />
of power and she turned around<br />
to go home before it caught fire.”<br />
LUCKY ESCAPE<br />
An Australian woman<br />
walked away without injury after<br />
rolling her rental vehicle into a<br />
paddock near Rakaia Gorge on<br />
Sunday. The woman was heading<br />
towards the gorge on State<br />
Highway 77 when she swerved<br />
to the right, hit a bank and her<br />
vehicle rolled into a nearby<br />
paddock. Hororata Volunteer<br />
Fire Brigade chief fire officer<br />
Bruce Sayer said the vehicle<br />
likely rolled once or twice and<br />
was severely damaged.<br />
BONFIRE CALL-OUT<br />
In spite of the district’s restricted<br />
fire ban, the Leeston Volunteer<br />
Fire Brigade was called to put out<br />
a bonfire at Coes Ford. Chief fire<br />
officer Lloyd Clausen said it was<br />
called to the banks of the <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />
River after 9pm last Monday and<br />
quickly put the fire out.<br />

Bus driver<br />
fails to<br />
see cyclist<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
A CYCLIST was lucky not to<br />
sustain serious injuries after<br />
being hit by a bus on Sunday<br />
night.<br />
A 21-year-old man was<br />
cycling east on Ellesmere<br />
Junction Rd at about 9.30pm<br />
when the driver of the bus, also<br />
heading east, failed to see the<br />
cyclist and collided with him.<br />
Sergeant Phil Bayne said<br />
another vehicle was heading<br />
west on Ellesmere Junction<br />
Rd, which the bus driver was<br />
concentrating on.<br />
He said the bus driver<br />
thought he hit a possum and it<br />
wasn’t until he went back to the<br />
depot and heard the volunteer<br />
fire alarm go off that he went<br />
back to check and discovered<br />
he had hit a cyclist.<br />
No passengers were on<br />
the bus at the time of the<br />
collision. The cyclist was taken<br />
to Christchurch Hospital with<br />
moderate injuries.<br />
He said cyclists need to<br />
ensure they wear bright,<br />
fluorescent clothing and<br />
bicycles have front and back<br />
lights.<br />
Call to micro-chip domestic cats<br />
• By Anan Zaki<br />
A SUPPORTER of trapping feral<br />
cats says a new bylaw should<br />
include the micro-chipping of<br />
domestic cats.<br />
The district council voted<br />
earlier this month to prepare<br />
a portfolio paper to consider<br />
developing a bylaw to regulate<br />
the keeping<br />
of domestic<br />
animals,<br />
including cats.<br />
A portfolio<br />
meeting will be<br />
held next month.<br />
Springfield<br />
Township<br />
Sean Ellis<br />
Committee<br />
secretary Sean<br />
Ellis – who has campaigned to<br />
trap feral cats – welcomed the<br />
move.<br />
“It will take a couple of months<br />
[after the portfolio meeting]<br />
to sort out what will go in the<br />
bylaw, then [council will] ask for<br />
petitions and then it will go to an<br />
open forum and decide exactly<br />
what the bylaw is going to be,”<br />
Mr Ellis said.<br />
He said micro-chipping<br />
domestic cats “is the way ahead”<br />
in regulating the population of<br />
feral cats which threaten native<br />
wildlife.<br />
“The main aim is to protect the<br />
domestic cat so that we can then<br />
go after the feral cats . . . at the<br />
moment we can’t go after feral<br />
cats because we don’t know if<br />
they are feral or domestic.”<br />
“The last thing we want to do is<br />
kill someone’s cat,” he said.<br />
Mr Ellis has been lobbying the<br />
district council on managing<br />
the feral cat population since<br />
UNWANTED: Micro-chipping<br />
the district’s domestic<br />
cats may be needed to<br />
manage the population of<br />
feral cats which threaten<br />
native wildlife.<br />
last year. Since he started<br />
his campaign, he said he has<br />
received backing from Predator<br />
Free NZ, SPCA, Department of<br />
Conservation, Forest and Bird,<br />
Waimakariri Environmental<br />
and Recreational Trust and the<br />
Arthur’s Pass Trust.<br />
The district council also<br />
passed resolutions to take an<br />
educational and supportive<br />
role to promote responsible cat<br />
ownership and environmental<br />
protection.<br />
It also voted to continue work<br />
to better understand the impact<br />
of cats on biodiversity and<br />
how those impacts can be best<br />
managed.<br />
The district council<br />
estimated there are about<br />
20,000 domestic cats across the<br />
district.<br />
The number of feral and<br />
stray cats is “unknown” but the<br />
council estimated it to be in the<br />
thousands.<br />

Bus service faces axe<br />
•From page 1<br />
“The service in the early<br />
morning and afternoon is<br />
probably not so good for<br />
the retired folk. A service<br />
in the mid-morning to<br />
mid-afternoon type scenario,<br />
you would probably<br />
get retired people using it,”<br />
Mr Clausen said.<br />
“Until they try, you don’t<br />
really know do you?”<br />
He said an early morning<br />
bus is still “needed,” but<br />
if people did not use it, he<br />
would understand if it was<br />
stopped.<br />
“If we can’t get one going,<br />
will we get two going?” Mr<br />
Clausen said.<br />
Meanwhile, the Darfield<br />
bus – launched at the same<br />
time as Leeston – has had a<br />
“positive” uptake.<br />
“We saw strong growth<br />
on the Darfield<br />
service . . . with an<br />
average of 47 daily<br />
boardings,” Mr<br />
Gibbon said.<br />
He said there<br />
is still room for<br />
growth in the Darfield<br />

Aramoana cop’s insight into capture<br />
• By Barry Clarke<br />
AN ANTI-terrorist squad leader<br />
involved in hunting and shooting<br />
David Gray at Aramoana has<br />
given an insight into what would<br />
have happened in the minutes<br />
leading up to the capture of the<br />
alleged mosque gunman.<br />
Mike Kyne said the two <strong>Selwyn</strong>based<br />
officers who apprehended<br />
in Brougham St could have taken<br />
the easy way out – and shot him.<br />
“Their credibility and moral<br />
compass was such that they did<br />
not do that. I was gratified these<br />
two constables did not resort to<br />
killing him,” he said.<br />
“They could have killed him<br />
and no one would have cared. If it<br />
was overseas he would have been<br />
dead.”<br />
One of the officers is based at<br />
Lincoln, and the other at an as yet<br />
undisclosed <strong>Selwyn</strong> police station.<br />
Both are seasoned police.<br />
Mr Kyne, led one of the police<br />
anti-terrorist squads sent in to<br />
hunt down Gray after his murderous<br />
spree in the Otago coastal<br />
settlement of Aramoana in November,<br />
1990.<br />
Gray killed 13 people including<br />
Port Chalmers police sergeant<br />
Stewart Guthrie, the first officer<br />
on the scene.<br />

who apprehended the alleged mosque gunman.<br />
emerged from a bach firing wildly<br />
at Mr Kyne’s squad as they cleared<br />

Gray was mortally wounded.<br />
Mr Kyne said the two constables<br />

mosque gunman would have had<br />

active and confused situation. The<br />
gunman had travelled at speed<br />
to Linwood (from the Deans Ave<br />
mosque) and was now mobile<br />
again.<br />
“The pressure would have been<br />
ramping up. Everything is happening<br />
at high speed,” he said.<br />
The two officers travelled from<br />
The Princess Margaret Hospital<br />
to Brougham St looking for the<br />
suspect.<br />
Mr Kyne said by this stage<br />
police would have had a<br />
registration number and<br />
description of the vehicle the<br />
gunman was travelling in.<br />
“The two constables would<br />
be aware of this. The passenger<br />
would be talking to the driver,<br />
telling him to turn here, turn<br />
there.<br />
“In that car the two guys<br />
would only be concentrating on<br />
the facts, the car rego, the make<br />
and the fact they have a moving<br />
offender.<br />
“They would be talking and<br />
assessing options if they found<br />
the vehicle. The boys would have<br />
been thinking a million miles<br />
an hour. ‘How are we going to<br />
deal with this when we meet<br />
him’. They would have made a<br />
commitment that if they found<br />
him they would have to stop<br />
him.<br />

of accused mosque gunman<br />
“You factor in the danger to the<br />
public in how you do this, and<br />
Brougham St is busy.<br />
“They would have been considering:<br />
‘If we get close enough do<br />
we shoot him?, do we shoot his<br />
tyres out?’”<br />
The two constables decided<br />
to ram the suspect’s vehicle to a<br />
standstill.<br />
“Once that happens the decision<br />
has been made. Everything<br />
now is going to happen in what<br />
could even be a half a second,”<br />
said Mr Kyne.<br />
They got out, armed with a pistol<br />
and high powered rifle. Again,<br />
they have split seconds to make<br />
decisions.<br />
Then one the officers saw explosives<br />
in the vehicle, heightening<br />
the danger even further.<br />
He rushed back to the police<br />
vehicle to alert other officers on<br />
their way, but then lost sight of<br />
his partner. He then returned<br />
to the vehicle to support this<br />
partner.<br />
“They would have been yelling<br />
at him to surrender; making<br />
instant decisions whether they<br />
needed to shoot or not – we’re<br />
talking a few seconds here only.<br />
“Everything they would have<br />
done is based solely on what is in<br />
front of them at that time. They<br />
would have had no fear, that<br />
HISTORY: Mike Kyne led one of the police anti-terrorist squads<br />
sent in to hunt down David Gray after his murderous spree in the<br />
Otago coastal settlement of Aramoana in November, 1990.<br />
doesn’t come into it. You don’t<br />
have time.<br />
“It’s like when someone who<br />
can’t swim dives into the water to<br />
save someone. They just do it.”<br />
Mr Kyne said the explosives<br />
in the accused gunman’s vehicle<br />
were “just another hazard that<br />
had to be dealt with.”<br />
“There’s no fear. You are completely<br />
in the zone. Their minds<br />
would have been crystal clear.<br />
They would have been talking to<br />
him. ‘Where’s the guns,’ demanding<br />
he show his hands, telling him<br />
to surrender. Then they went in<br />
and grabbed him, away from the<br />
bomb, handcuffed him and apprehended<br />
him. Then they have a<br />
crime scene. They wouldn’t have<br />
touched the car and they would<br />
have kept people at bay.<br />
“That’s when you look at each<br />
other (partner) and say ‘Holy<br />
s**t!’<br />
“The heart slows down, and<br />
then it starts to sink in what<br />
you’ve actually just did. They<br />
probably had a beer that night.”<br />
Police Minister Stuart Nash<br />
also revealed more details<br />
around the man’s arrest.<br />
“These two guys pull this guy<br />
out but at the same time he was<br />
yelling: ‘I’ve got a bomb’ and<br />
shooting at the same time, so we<br />
overuse the word hero, but not in<br />
this case,” Mr Nash said.<br />
Mr Kyne was involved in many<br />
dangerous life and death incidents<br />
during his police career.<br />
Aramoana was one where he<br />
was lucky to survive.<br />
Hard up against a Polite garage<br />
wall, Gray burst out of the bach<br />
front door several metres away,<br />
firing wildly.<br />
The wall was peppered with<br />
bullet holes, but the rounds miraculously<br />
missed Mr Kyne.<br />
“How I survived I have no idea.<br />
We had no option but to return<br />
fire when Gray came out shooting<br />
at us.”<br />
Gray took a number of bullets<br />
and was mortally wounded.<br />
“But after he was secured we<br />
administered first aid. That’s<br />
what NZ Police do. We believe in<br />
justice and fairness. No different<br />
to the two guys on Friday.”<br />
Gray later died in an<br />
ambulance.<br />

“A lot time and planning goes<br />
on behind-the-scene to make<br />
this a day the local community<br />
can enjoy. And with the fete’s<br />
reputation growing, people from<br />
the wider area are coming to see<br />

Fashion Forecast Show<br />
a first at The Hub<br />
The Hub Hornby is proud to put on their very first Fashion<br />
Forecast show on 11 April from 7pm to 8pm. This hourlong,<br />
free event will showcase the latest autumn and<br />
winter styles from a wide variety of fashion retailers within<br />
the centre.<br />
The growing variety of fashion and accessory<br />
stores at The Hub now means customers<br />
can shop for the latest fashions, including<br />
shoes and accessories at the centre<br />
with plenty to choose from and,<br />
importantly, for all body types.<br />
Rather than using professional<br />
models, participating retailers are<br />
organising their own models, using<br />
staff, friends, and family. Centre<br />
Manager, Jason Marsden, says<br />
“We wanted to deliver an authentic<br />
showcase of the upcoming new<br />
season’s fashion. Rather than seeing<br />
traditional models take to the runway and<br />
people thinking that they may not be able<br />
to wear that, we want to showcase real people<br />
wearing real clothing.”<br />
“This is going to be all about real fashion on real people.<br />
We want our customers to think: ‘Yes I could wear that’.<br />
This will also add a lot of fun to the event and there may<br />
even be one or two surprise looks”.<br />
Participating fashion stores include Caroline Eve, Farmers,<br />
Max, K&K, Bras’n Things, Pagani, Jeanswest, Moda Bella,<br />
Ziera Shoes plus others.<br />
Proud to be… fashion experts on hand<br />
During the lead up to the show, The Hub recently ran<br />
an initiative called: ‘Proud to Be….’. This saw people<br />
nominated and six winners each receiving a full makeover<br />
to reflect their own personal style. “The aim<br />
is to celebrate the diversity, stories,<br />
and people of the greater Hornby<br />
community. These recipients<br />
will be familiar faces in the<br />
community and it will be great<br />
to introduce them and their<br />
new looks throughout the<br />
show, as each will take to<br />
the runway to celebrate their<br />
nomination,” says Marsden.<br />
Moda Bella<br />
Each of the ‘Proud to Be…’<br />
winners are in the process<br />
of experiencing a makeover<br />
with The Hub’s resident style<br />
expert, Vick McMillian, creating a<br />
look that suits the individual and their<br />
personality.<br />
Customers who are unsure or would like some additional<br />
help can utilise the services of The Hub’s very own fashion<br />
stylist Vicki McMillan. Vicki styles the three mannequins<br />
located outside Michael Hill, drawing from multiple<br />
retailers thus creating unique looks not seen in any single<br />
store.<br />
Come along to the Hub Hornby for the Fashion Forecast<br />
show on 11 April from 7pm to 8pm – See you there!<br />

Defensive<br />
game fails to<br />
prevent loss<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
SELWYN UNITED will look to<br />
rediscover their attacking mojo<br />
at home against FC Twenty11 this<br />
Saturday after a 2-0 loss to Cashmere<br />
Technical in the Mainland Premier<br />
League.<br />
After beating<br />
Nomads 6-4 in the<br />
opening round a<br />
fortnight ago, it was<br />
the attacking third<br />
which failed to fire<br />
for Chris Brown’s<br />
side.<br />
“A couple of<br />
Chris Brown<br />
errors in defence led to us conceding<br />
goals but it was the forward third that<br />
just didn’t click for us,” he said.<br />
“We usually have one game like<br />
that a season so hopefully it’s out of<br />
the way now.”<br />
With the second round game<br />
against Ferrymead Bays cancelled,<br />
Brown said the defensive plans were<br />
used against Cashmere Technical a<br />
week later.<br />
“I thought defensively we were far<br />
more organised and worked hard.<br />
“THe boys were high on confidence<br />
after the first win . . . but I think they<br />
can stand up and be happy with how<br />
they played against Tech but also we<br />
know we missed a chance to get some<br />
points.”<br />
Brown praised his two centre<br />
backs, Jack Allatt and Jayden Booth<br />
for their commitment in defence.<br />
Leeston-Southbridge take title<br />
A MASTERFUL innings<br />
by Rupert Young steered<br />
Leeston-Southbridge to the<br />
country cricket one day title on<br />
Saturday.<br />
Leeston-Southbridge’s opening<br />
batsman Young read the<br />
conditions perfectly at Rangiora’s<br />
showpiece ground,<br />
Mainpower Oval in making a<br />
composed unbeaten 81 runs,<br />
earning him man-of-the-match<br />
honours in the 79-run win over<br />
Southbrook.<br />
The heavy loss continued<br />
Southbrook’s woeful record<br />
in championship games, with<br />
still just the 2011/12 title in its<br />
clubrooms trophy cabinet.<br />
Southbrook won the toss<br />
and elected to bowl first in the<br />
much-anticipated CRV Ambreed<br />
Country Premier One<br />
Day Competition final.<br />
Brook seamer Alex Simpson<br />
got rid of Canterbury A batsman<br />
Joel Harden cheaply<br />
before Sam Ermerins – who<br />
enjoyed the best season of his<br />
career – ripped through the<br />
combined side’s quality top order.<br />
Ermerins claimed the key<br />
scalps of Harry and Ben Chamberlain<br />
along with ex-Dutch<br />
international Tim Gruijters,<br />
before Darryn Boyle knocked<br />
over Ben Donkers, reducing<br />
them to a precarious 72/5.<br />
Meanwhile, Young was batting<br />
serenely at the other end,<br />
and soon had much-needed<br />
help from Liam O’Sullivan who<br />
SPORT<br />
made a handy 49 off 68 balls.<br />
Canterbury Country batsman<br />
Young – younger brother<br />
of Central Stags star and fringe<br />
Blackcap William Young –<br />
carried his bat throughout the<br />
Leeston-Southbridge innings,<br />
making 81 not out off 114 balls<br />
to lift his team to a solid 225/7<br />
in their 45 overs.<br />
At the change of innings, the<br />
’Brook, with its powerful top<br />
order, were comfortable to be<br />
chasing 2<strong>26</strong> runs to win the<br />
title.<br />
But they got off to a horror<br />
start when Matt Brine was<br />
involved in a mix-up with<br />
fellow opener and skipper<br />
Tom Rodden and he was<br />
run out third ball of the<br />
innings.<br />
It was the first of three runouts<br />
in the Southbrook innings<br />
on a day where Leeston-<br />
Southbridge’s fielding was of<br />
the highest order.<br />
The match appeared to<br />
hinge on the partnership of<br />
Canterbury opening batsman<br />
Jack Boyle and Canterbury l<br />
egend Shanan Stewart, who<br />
came together with the score at<br />
1/2.<br />
After a cautious beginning,<br />
SELWYN TIMES<br />
SUCCESS:<br />

Southbridge<br />
were crowned<br />
Canterbury<br />
Country<br />
Premier one<br />
day champions<br />
at Mainpower<br />
Oval, Rangiora,<br />
on Saturday. <br />
the pair were soon finding the<br />
gaps and the boundary with<br />
regularity.<br />
Boyle was dismissed for 31<br />
when he shuffled down the<br />
pitch to Donkers and was<br />
bowled off his pads, bringing<br />
Simpson to the wicket.<br />
Simpson and Stewart put on<br />
68 runs before they fell in quick<br />
succession to the off-spin of<br />
Gruijters.<br />
The ’Brook then collapsed<br />
spectacularly to be all out for<br />
146 in the 38 th over, sparking<br />
jubilant scenes as Leeston-<br />
Southbridge celebrated a welldeserved<br />
trophy.<br />

Kart racer off to Europe<br />
LINCOLN TEENAGER Jacob<br />
Douglas will make a little bit of<br />
Kiwi karting history when he<br />
lines up at the first round of the<br />
FIA Karting Academy Trophy<br />
series in Germany in May.<br />
Although more and more<br />
New Zealand karters have been<br />
travelling to Europe to compete<br />
in recent years, Jacob, 13, is the<br />
first to be invited by the FIA<br />
Karting Academy to contest its<br />
annual trophy<br />
series.<br />
“It’s acknowledgement,<br />
if you<br />
like, from the<br />
very top people<br />
in our sport,”<br />
said KartSport<br />
Jacob<br />
New Zealand<br />
president<br />
Graeme Moore.<br />
Douglas<br />
“Drivers like Jacob are<br />
truly world class, and that by<br />
being able to produce drivers<br />
of his obvious calibre, the sport<br />
here must be in pretty good<br />
shape.”<br />
In spite of his age, Jacob is<br />
already a veteran of several trips<br />
to Europe to race. The two-time<br />
NZ Vortex Mini ROK champion<br />
led a four-strong New Zealand<br />
squad to its best finish yet at the<br />
annual ROK Cup International<br />
event in Italy in October last<br />
year.<br />
“It’s a big commitment,<br />
particularly for a 13-year-old, but<br />
it’s what Jacob wants to do so as a<br />
family we are right behind him,”<br />
BIG THINGS: Jacob Douglas (front) will become the first Kiwi<br />
to compete in the FIA Karting Academy Trophy Series. PHOTO:<br />

said his father Craig Douglas.<br />
Having already proved he can<br />
foot it with the best young Vortex<br />
drivers in the world, Jacob says<br />
his goal is to establish himself in<br />
Europe and he believes that this<br />
year’s three-round series – in<br />
which up to 50 invited drivers<br />
use the same model of OTK kart<br />
– is just the stepping stone he<br />
needs.<br />
“I am really proud that<br />
Kartsport New Zealand is<br />
supporting me,” said Jacob.<br />
“It is a great series to introduce<br />
me to European junior racing<br />
and I am extremely excited to<br />
continue where I left off last year<br />
at the ROK Cup with Lennox<br />
Racing. I am looking forward to<br />
doing New Zealand proud and<br />
everybody who has helped take<br />
to where I am today. I am also<br />
fortunate that my KartSport<br />
New Zealand academy coach,<br />
Tiffany Hamilton, will be by my<br />
side to help guide me through<br />
the weekends when I am up<br />
there. Tiff has lots of European<br />
racing experience for me to draw<br />
on.”<br />
This year the series will be<br />
contested over three rounds,<br />
starting at Wackersdorf in<br />
Germany in early May, before<br />
heading to Italy for a second<br />
round in June, then the third and<br />
final in September.<br />

PREBBLETON CYCLIST Bailey<br />
O’Donnell is determined his<br />
breakthrough year is only the<br />
beginning.<br />
THe 18-year-old, who is up for<br />
outstanding young sportsman<br />
at the Canterbury<br />
Sports Award on<br />
Friday night, left<br />
school in an effort<br />
to give his cycling<br />
dreams the best<br />
chance of turning<br />
into reality.<br />
“I never really<br />
had opportunities<br />
to be honoured like<br />
that at an awards<br />
night and I didn’t<br />
even know about it<br />
until my aunty sent<br />
it through to me.<br />
“To get selected<br />
for junior worlds<br />
and have a good<br />
track nationals was<br />
great.”<br />
O’Donnell went<br />
on to help New<br />
Zealand win the<br />
team pursuit at the junior world<br />
championships, in Switzerland,<br />
last August.<br />
“It was an opportunity and we<br />
took it and for me, once you have<br />
SPORT<br />
Big year just the<br />
beginning for cyclist<br />
FUTURE STAR:<br />
Prebbleton’s Bailey<br />
O’Donnell is eager<br />
to show what he can<br />
do when he heads to<br />
Belgium in July.<br />
success like that, you know you<br />
can do it again.”<br />
O’Donnell said he was eager to<br />
double-down on his success by<br />
making his sport the focus this<br />
year.<br />
“I’m doing some building parttime<br />
but I thought this<br />
year I have a chance to<br />
make the most of my<br />
sport so I thought why<br />
not give it a go?” he said.<br />
“I’m putting in<br />
between 500km and<br />
700km a week on the<br />
bike at the moment.”<br />
He will head to<br />
Belgium in July for two<br />
months of road racing<br />
which was organised<br />
by former national<br />
representative Hayden<br />
Roulston.<br />
“I’ve never raced for<br />
long overseas so it’s an<br />
opportunity.”<br />
It’s a far cry from his<br />
start as a child riding<br />
a mountain bike on<br />
the Tinwald track in<br />
Ashburton.<br />
He said he wasn’t sure whether<br />
his future would be in road racing<br />
or on the track but believed<br />
opportunities in a velodrome<br />
would become available after the<br />
2020 Tokyo Olympics.<br />

BACK or NECK PAIN?<br />
Advertisement<br />
After twelve years in New<br />
Zealand, Teeter Hang-Ups have<br />
now established a long term<br />
track record with thousands of<br />
people throughout New<br />
Zealand.<br />
Inversion New Zealand was<br />
started by Dave and Nancy Hare,<br />
Dave had suffered over twenty<br />
years of back pain from Degenerated<br />
Discs and had basically<br />
given up and decided to just live<br />
with it. To him surgery was never<br />
an option as long as he still<br />
could walk, there was hope.<br />
“While on an overseas trip I<br />
discovered the Teeter Hang-Ups<br />
for the first time, when I tried it,<br />
the pain completely<br />
disappeared and I was pain free<br />
for about 30 minutes. I never<br />
would have believed it would fix<br />
me completely as specialists had<br />
told me it was irreversible, but I<br />
now knew I had a place to go<br />
every time I wanted some<br />
welcome relief”.<br />
To my surprise the more I used<br />
the table the longer the pain<br />
stayed away, until after nearly<br />
three months the pain was<br />
completely gone, after spending<br />
large amounts of money on<br />
everything I could find I finally<br />
had found something that<br />
worked and it was something I<br />
had never heard of sorting it out<br />
for me in a very short period of<br />
time.<br />
Real Hope For Long Term Sufferers<br />
Once I was sure it really worked<br />
I decided to introduce Teeter<br />
into New Zealand to help<br />
spread awareness of the one<br />
thing that truly helped me.<br />
Over the years I have helped<br />
tens of thousands of people in<br />
New Zealand get some serious<br />
relief and have seen results in<br />
not only backs, but necks, hips,<br />
knees, posture, circulation and<br />
lots more.<br />
The results from what inversion<br />
does is nothing short of miraculous<br />
in areas we never thought<br />
possible, I believe there is a<br />
place for these in every single<br />
home regardless of if you have<br />
back issues or not.<br />
We have introduced them into a<br />
number of schools which are<br />
using them for their special<br />
needs children, the blood to the<br />
brain helps these kids and the<br />
results are excellent. What this<br />
means for the aging population<br />
is that it helps maintain the<br />
health of the brain as we all get<br />
older.<br />
I would not have believed the<br />
results had I not tried it for<br />
myself, and I would still be<br />
suffering to this day. This is why<br />
we travel the country showing<br />
people and letting them see for<br />
themselves how great it is and<br />
how life can be once your pain<br />
free again<br />
IT IS PURE LOGIC AS TO HOW<br />
THE TEETER TABLE WORKS<br />
Discs: It uses gravity to apply traction,<br />
the traction gently opens the discs and as<br />
they open up they create suction, this<br />
suction draws fluid from the surrounding<br />
tissue back into the discs, re-hydrating<br />
them. This is the key! Discs do not have<br />
their own blood supply, they rely on trans<br />
fer of fluid from the surrounding tissue to<br />
keep them healthy and hydrated and over<br />
the years as discs get thinner with age, they<br />
lose the ability to take on fluid (just like<br />
squeezing a sponge) and they start to<br />
de-hydrate.<br />
De-Hydrated discs are less flexible, they are<br />
harder, more prone to injury, they interfere<br />
with nerve roots creating pain and<br />
ultimately the de-hydration causes degen<br />
eration. The Teeter Inversion table slowly<br />
and gently brings the hydration back into<br />
the discs, plumping them up. It separates<br />
the nerve roots far more effectively and<br />
returns quality of life<br />
Muscles: A lot of pain is muscular, when<br />
muscles are stressed they become tight<br />
which restricts the flow of blood and lymph<br />
through the muscles so toxins build up,<br />
Co2 and Lactic Acid. Traction opens up the<br />
muscles, Rhythmic Traction, is a gentle<br />
rocking motion that stimulates circulation<br />
and encourages blood flow through the<br />
muscles, which clears the lactic acid into<br />
your lymph system where it stimulates<br />
lymph flow and deals with it. Most people<br />
with serious neck issues see a large<br />
improvement after only one treatment.<br />
Frank Harwood (84 at time of picture) using his Teeter, Frank’s<br />
been Inverting for over eleven years and has found it keeps him<br />
young<br />
Posture: Poor posture is one f the<br />
major cases of pain and is a major contributor<br />
to the deterioration of the body with<br />
age. A difference in leg length causes most<br />
of the hip and knee issues, as they continue<br />
to place uneven loads on the joints;<br />
similar to the wheels out of alignment on<br />
your car.<br />
Trying to correct posture is extremely<br />
difficult due to muscle memory, as it<br />
constantly pulls the muscles back to where<br />
they were. At a level of 40 degrees or more<br />
on the Teeter, the muscle groups open up<br />
and eventually come back into alignment,<br />
using the table daily, does not allow the<br />
muscle memory to pull them back out of<br />
alignment and slowly the muscles start to<br />
lose their memory and go with the flow,<br />
allowing the body to come back into<br />
correct posture. Then using the table once a<br />
day will ensure it is kept there.<br />
This is pure logic, if a machine is out of<br />
alignment it does not last long, the only<br />
difference between the body and a<br />
machine is that the body is constantly<br />
repairing itself, however if the wear and<br />
tear on the body is greater than the body’s<br />
ability to repair itself, it is a slow decline.<br />
The Teeter slowly brings the body out of its<br />
decline and allows the body to repair itself,<br />
resulting in a far healthier life.<br />
If you are serious about investing in your<br />
health and really sorting your issues out,<br />
come see us at one of our local roadshows,<br />
you have nothing to lose and chances are, a<br />
lot to gain.<br />
Here in New Zealand, Dr Giresh Kanji, is<br />
one of the countries most respected Pain<br />
Specialists. Dr Kanji has been using Teeters in<br />
his clinics for the past 6 years and has<br />
discovered how effective traction is especially<br />
on disc issue.<br />
Dr Kanji is the author of "Fix Your Back" and<br />
"Fix Your Neck Pain, Headache & Migraine",<br />
both books are in most bookstores.<br />
Dr Kanji discovered in the research that the<br />
disc is the most likely source of low back pain<br />
and Inversion showed the best results of all<br />
the trials conducted. Three studies showed a<br />
60% reduction in pain and one showed a 75%<br />
reduction in surgery for people with disc<br />
prolapse.<br />
Dr Kanji endorses Inversion as the best<br />
method to manage back pain, he has<br />
personally been using the Teeter Inversion<br />
tables for his own low back pain, has Teeter<br />
Inversion tables at both of his clinics in<br />
Wellington (The Sports and Pain Clinic) and<br />
has had such success that he is now conducting<br />
New Zealand’s largest study on Inversion<br />
Therapy. In his own words, "these things are<br />
gold and inversion should be a first line<br />
treatment for low back pain”.<br />

Country senior and colts games axed<br />
No Craw Shield<br />
defence<br />
under new plan<br />
• By Gordon Findlater<br />
CANTERBURY Country will<br />
not have the opportunity to<br />
defend their Craw Shield title<br />
against Canterbury Metro after<br />
a decision was made to scrap<br />
the sub union’s senior and colts<br />
representative teams this year.<br />
The Canterbury Country<br />
Rugby Sub Union made the<br />
decision at a recent board<br />
meeting.<br />
The contributing reasons for<br />
the decision were an extended<br />
Canterbury B season, the<br />
move of Ellesmere and North<br />
Canterbury’s Southbridge Shield<br />
and Munro Shield matches to<br />
later in the year as opposed to<br />
July, and increasing difficulty<br />
obtaining sponsors and gaming<br />
machine funds.<br />
Canterbury Country sub<br />
union secretary Murray Dulieu<br />
described the board’s decision as<br />
“facing reality.”<br />
“I’m disappointed and I<br />
think a number of the player<br />
and supporters will be as well.<br />
Canterbury Country has been<br />
around from a long time, so I’m<br />
pretty disappointed, but it’s the<br />
decision,” said Dulieu.<br />
This means Canterbury<br />
SPORT<br />
Country’s long-standing<br />
traditional games against Otago<br />
Country and Southland Country<br />
will also not be played this year.<br />
Canterbury Country will still<br />
have under-16 boys, under-18<br />
boys and under-15 girls rep<br />
teams, which will compete at a<br />
South Island tournament.<br />
In previous years, the annual<br />
Craw Shield match between<br />
Canterbury Country and<br />
Canterbury Metro has been<br />
used as a final trial match for the<br />
Canterbury B side. However, due<br />
to a newly-extended programme<br />
GONE: The Canterbury Country senior side will not be able to defend the Craw Shield after a<br />
decision was made to axe the senior and colts representative programme due to an extended<br />
Canterbury B season.<br />
PHOTO: KAREN CASEY<br />
this year, the Canterbury B side<br />
will be selected by the end of the<br />
club season.<br />
At the end of last season, the<br />
Ellesmere and North Canterbury<br />
sub unions sent a questionnaire<br />
to all of their clubs and the<br />
feedback they got was to play the<br />
Southbridge and Munro shields<br />
games after the completion<br />
of the club season. That is<br />
when the Canterbury Country<br />
representative games take place.<br />
This also contributed to the<br />
decision due to very limited<br />
preparation for the Canterbury<br />
Country teams and an extension<br />
of demand on players’ time.<br />
The new schedule will<br />
see Ellesmere and North<br />
Canterbury’s senior and<br />
colts teams play four game<br />
programmes following the club<br />
season, which will culminate<br />
in the Southbridge and Munro<br />
Shields games.<br />
Dulieu says a full review will<br />
be carried out at the end of this<br />
season to evaluate the results of<br />
the change. The review will look<br />
at whether the new format has<br />
provided the development path<br />
for country players or if it would<br />
be better achieved by playing<br />
in the country seniors and colts<br />
representative games.<br />
“The goal is for country players<br />
to develop their rugby so they<br />
have an opportunity to play for<br />
Canterbury or Canterbury B.<br />
I think the important thing is<br />
that this programme which is<br />
being trialled will still give those<br />
players a chance to develop and<br />
move onto higher honours,” he<br />
said.<br />

Worker bees<br />
win award<br />
Rebecca Scott (far right) started up her<br />
business in <strong>Selwyn</strong> nine years ago and recently<br />
won an award at the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Awards 2018<br />
Capacity building workshops<br />
Is your community group, club or not-for-profit looking to recruit<br />
some volunteers?<br />
We’re running a series of free workshops over the next few months,<br />
for not-for-profit community groups, organisations and clubs as a<br />
part of the Capacity Building Initiative.<br />
Council Community and Economic Development Advisor Michael<br />
Heywood says the aim of the initiative is to offer advice on a wide<br />
range of interesting and useful topics.<br />
“The workshops vary from funding and fundraising, governance,<br />
marketing, coaching and more,” he says.<br />
There a few workshops coming up including:<br />
Funding in <strong>Selwyn</strong>: Tuesday 9 April, 1–3pm,<br />
Rolleston Community Centre<br />
This workshop will include speakers from Council, Department of<br />
Internal Affairs and Rata discussing funds they have available.<br />
Sustainable Funding: Wednesday 8 May, 5.30–7.30pm,<br />
Lincoln Event Centre<br />
This workshop will cover key income streams for community<br />
groups, the difference between donations, sponsorship and grants,<br />
and tips on how to get more volunteers for fundraising and how to<br />
best use these volunteers.<br />
Governance Bites: Thursday 20 June, 5.30–7.30pm,<br />
Lincoln Event Centre<br />
This workshop will cover the essentials that every not-for-profit<br />
board member needs to know.<br />
For information or to RSVP contact Michael.Heywood@selwyn.govt.nz.<br />
Profiling our <strong>Selwyn</strong> Awards 2018 winners. Busy Bumbles, a locally owned after-school care<br />
business took out the 2018 Small Business Award.<br />
Rebecca Scott has wanted to be a teacher ever since she was five years old. She ticked that off,<br />
for 15 years working as a teacher and even becoming deputy principal. After having children of<br />
her own she wanted more flexibility and time to spend with her young family. Not wanting to leave<br />
the childcare and education industry she began researching alternative options.<br />
Rebecca saw an opportunity in after-school care and Busy Bumbles was created, with just one<br />
enrolled child, working out of Rolleston School. The business quickly developed, and in a short<br />
nine years, with the expansion of <strong>Selwyn</strong> townships Busy Bumbles grew to a roll of over 5000<br />
children at 10 venues with 61 staff.<br />
As managing director and owner, Rebecca says she couldn’t think of a better place to start<br />
up a business.<br />
“<strong>Selwyn</strong> has been such a supportive and collaborative area to grow my business into what it is<br />
today. There is such a positive culture within the business network in <strong>Selwyn</strong>.<br />
“Everyone works together and lends a hand whenever someone needs it, I’ve had nothing but one<br />
hundred percent support when I’ve reached out,” she says.<br />
In last year’s <strong>Selwyn</strong> Awards, Busy Bumbles was nominated in the Small Business category.<br />
It was voted winner by the judges and also named runner-up for the People’s Choice Award.<br />
Rebecca says this nomination was a great opportunity for the business as a whole to take a step<br />
back and recognise its success.<br />
“We’ve been so busy, it’s just work work work, we don’t often get a chance to look up and<br />
appreciate all the positive things we are doing in our community.<br />
“Sitting at the awards that evening and hearing all the good things being said about your business<br />
I felt so so proud. So the whole table was pretty jolly proud actually, with a few tears. That evening<br />
was definitely the highlight of my nine years in business,” she says.<br />
The <strong>Selwyn</strong> Awards run every two years, with the next one coming up next year. For information<br />
on the awards, and the winners go to selwyn.govt.nz/selwynawards.<br />

Road upgrade projects under way in Prebbleton<br />
and Rolleston<br />
Two new projects are getting under way in Prebbleton and Rolleston as part of the Council’s ongoing<br />
roading upgrade programme.<br />
Work has begun to seal a 1km long unsealed stretch of Dunns Crossing Road, between Boulez Mews<br />
and <strong>Selwyn</strong> Road. The project includes shoulder widening, road pavement construction and chip<br />
sealing, and is expected to be completed by the end of April.<br />
Contractors will be safely managing traffic throughout the project through speed restrictions, lane<br />
closures, and give way controls.<br />
Early next week work will start on a street frontage upgrade of Tosswill Road in Prebbleton, to be<br />
completed by the end of May. The upgrade involves sealing the long grass shoulder on the southern<br />
side of the road, to create a parallel parking lane up to the Domain entrance. New kerb and channel and<br />
footpath construction will be installed on the southern side of the road over a total length of 365m, from<br />
the Prebbleton Domain to Ashford Avenue.<br />
The upgrade also involves stormwater improvements.<br />
During construction temporary speed restrictions, temporary traffic signals and parking restrictions will<br />
be in place when required.<br />

New format for Combined<br />
Country rugby competition<br />
Sports reporter Jacob Page looks at how the new format for the Combined Country<br />
rugby competition will affect teams<br />
ELLESMERE RUGBY teams<br />
will kick off a new, shortened<br />
Combined Country competition<br />
format on Saturday.<br />
The structure was signed off by<br />
all three sub-unions, including<br />
Ellesmere rugby manager<br />
Michael Sheat.<br />
The 22 teams from across<br />
Ellesmere, Mid-Canterbury and<br />
North Canterbury have been<br />
split into three<br />
pools based on last<br />
year’s rankings<br />
and geographical<br />
balance.<br />
The aim is to<br />
prevent teams<br />
Michael<br />
Sheat<br />
playing three<br />
games in eight<br />
days like they<br />
did last year,<br />
while also ensuring club rugby<br />
is completed before the start of<br />
August.<br />
There are eight teams in pool<br />
A, with seven teams each in<br />
pools B and C.<br />
Each team will play seven<br />
round-robin games before the<br />
playoffs start with the quarterfinals.<br />
Teams in pool A will play the<br />
seven other teams in their group,<br />
while teams in pools B and C<br />
will play six games against teams<br />
in their own group, plus one<br />

The top two teams in each<br />
pool will progress to the quarterfinals,<br />
with the final two wild<br />
card teams decided by which has<br />
the most competition points out<br />
of the remaining 16 teams.<br />
The Combined Country final<br />
will be played on June 1.<br />
After the final, each sub-union<br />
will break into their traditional<br />
club competitions, with<br />

How are the<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
WITH SENIOR country rugby<br />
kicking off, here’s how the<br />
Ellesmere teams are shaping up<br />
ahead of the season<br />
•Waihora<br />
Waihora will look to replicate<br />
their stellar season last year,<br />
which saw them win both the<br />
Combined Country trophy and<br />
the Ellesmere competition.<br />
Co-coach Joff Mooar said<br />
he expects his team will have a<br />
target on our backs.<br />
“We’re not being complacent<br />
. . . the trophies may be in our<br />
cabinet but they’re only on loan,”<br />
he said. “We had 18 debutants<br />
that we put through last year<br />
and have only lost four of last<br />
year’s squad.”<br />
Mooar said the return of<br />
utility back Leon Simpson would<br />
give his team added depth and<br />
some speed.<br />
Ellesmere representative Matt<br />
Saunders will offer plenty at<br />
either centre or first-five.<br />
Mooar said there will be<br />
some fresh faces in the forwards<br />
PROVIDES:<br />
who will get their chance after<br />
INSULATION<br />
playing for the B side last season.<br />
He said the pack will rely on<br />
the loose forward combination<br />
of Will Hurst and Tyler Koning<br />
once again, especially with the<br />
retirement of 290-game stalwart<br />
Gareth Pietzner at the end SHOWERS of last<br />
season.<br />

Ellesmere teams shaping up?<br />
•Prebbleton<br />
Prebbleton may have flown<br />
under the radar to achieve their<br />
two semi-final appearances last<br />
year, but with this season being<br />
their centenary, which will be<br />
celebrated over Easter, coach<br />
Tony Martin knows there will<br />
be no sneaking up on them this<br />
season.<br />
“We’ve had a a look at everyone<br />
and the squad is 90 per cent the<br />
same of what it was last year, so<br />
it’s just a case of getting the best<br />
out of them,” he said.<br />
“You’ll only see one centenary<br />
at your club and we’re looking<br />
forward to the game that<br />
dovetails into our centenary<br />
weekend against Lincoln, but<br />
you want to be performing every<br />
week of this season and we know<br />
teams will be looking to knock<br />
us off.”<br />
“We certainly want to be<br />
contenders for both<br />
competitions.”<br />
Martin hopes his squad have<br />
learned from their big match<br />
experience last season and it will<br />
help them in crucial fixtures in<br />
<strong>2019</strong>.<br />
“We’ll have to be mature<br />
enough to close games out and<br />
that’s not something we had last<br />
year.”<br />
He said Ellesmere and<br />
Canterbury Country<br />
representative Steve Lees-<br />
Godwin will once again lead the<br />

way with Greg Mitchell in the<br />
forwards, along with Tongan<br />
sevens representative Eddie<br />
Sunia, while Tim Murgatroyd<br />
is an experienced and versatile<br />
player in the backs.<br />
•Springston<br />
Last year’s Cinderella story<br />
after debuting in the top division<br />
and making two semi-finals,<br />
Springston will likely get better<br />
as the season goes on, said coach<br />
Anton Sutherland.<br />
”Everyone knows you can’t put<br />
out a soft, second-string team<br />
against us,” he said.<br />
”We’re missing a few guys to<br />
start, but hopefully we’ll have<br />
them all back in a month or so.”<br />
Sutherland said his team<br />
will likely target the Ellesmere<br />
teams and look to get as many<br />
competition points as they can<br />
to have a run at winning the<br />
Coleman Shield at the end of the<br />
season.<br />
“That’s what we did so well last<br />
year was stick with teams, even<br />
if we didn’t win, we picked up<br />
bonus points.”<br />
Sutherland said last year’s<br />
Canterbury B hooker Sam<br />
Cottam will be a big part of the<br />
forward pack, while Cam Powell<br />
will look to ensure Springston’s<br />
backline is positive in attack<br />
and will also handle the kicking<br />
duties.<br />
”Every team wants to think<br />
they can go better than last year,”<br />
Sutherland said. “We have to be<br />
realistic that we may have a tough<br />
first month or so.”<br />
•Southbridge<br />
Arguably the most successful<br />
Ellesmere club of the past decade<br />
had a flat 2018 by their lofty<br />
standards, with two semi-final<br />
appearances and no silverware.<br />
Said co-coach Doug<br />
Maginness: “We struggled a bit<br />
last year, especially with injuries,<br />
and we’re keen to get back to<br />
where we were a couple of years<br />
ago.”<br />
“We aren’t a massive side<br />
around the park but we have<br />
plenty of mobility.”<br />
Maginness said the core of the<br />
squad remained settled but a<br />
fast start in the new condensed<br />
format will be vital.<br />
“The Ellesmere competition<br />
just keeps getting better and<br />
better each year,” he said.<br />
“Of the 10 teams, probably<br />
eight of them could win it.<br />
“The days are gone where you<br />
can get comfortable wins.<br />
“Having a shorter season I<br />
think will see the quality of<br />
rugby improve but it also means<br />
you have to get off to a fast start<br />
because you don’t want to be two<br />
or three games behind.”<br />
Back rower Darryl Lambourn<br />
will set the tone again as the<br />
enforcer of the pack, while Tom<br />
Turner will likely play a key role<br />
at centre after suffering an ACL<br />
injury early last season.<br />
“Tom’s a good communicator<br />
and a strong talker, which is vital<br />
in that position.”<br />
•Burnham-Dunsandel-<br />
Irwell<br />
BDI finished just outside<br />
the top-four of the Ellesmere<br />
competition last year, but have<br />
also had a disjointed preseason<br />
so far.<br />
“We’ve had guys away helping<br />
with the Nelson fires and then<br />
assisting after the events in<br />
Christchurch over the last week<br />
or so,” coach Glenn McGuire<br />
said.<br />
“It is what it is being a militarybased<br />
squad.”<br />
McGuire said his team always<br />
have the ability to score points,<br />
but it is their leaky defence which<br />
has cost them games in the past.<br />
“We’ve always had the<br />
capability of making the top four,<br />
it’s just been a case of putting<br />
it together,” he said. “We have<br />
plenty of points in us, it’s just a<br />
case of sharpening our defence.”<br />

Breaking down the Ellesmere sides<br />
•From page 21<br />
A couple of senior players<br />
up-front will look to bring up<br />
milestones this year, with Gareth<br />
Seymour approaching 300 games<br />
and Roger Mockford eyeing up<br />
150.<br />
“If we can make it to the<br />
(playoffs) that’d be a big<br />
achievement for us.”<br />
“We won our last 10 out of 11<br />
when we had guys on deck so<br />
we’re always a danger, it’s just a<br />
case of keeping guys together,”<br />
McGuire said.<br />
•Lincoln<br />
Lincoln will aim to go back<br />
to their powerful forward pack<br />
to set a platform for victory this<br />
year after a middle-of-the-pack<br />
effort last season, coach Kris<br />
Partridge said<br />
Veteran halfback Jason<br />
Pietzner is sitting on 296 games<br />
for the club after suffering a<br />
detached retina during the preseason,<br />
which ended his 2018<br />
campaign.<br />
“He’s been training with our<br />
division three team but he said<br />
he’d make himself available if we<br />
need him and it’d be nice to get<br />
him to 300 but we’ll see.”<br />
Partridge said his team will<br />
look to target the Ellesmere<br />
derbies.<br />
“We got ourselves up for some<br />
of the bigger games and then let<br />
ourselves down in what some<br />
would consider easier games.”<br />
KEY: Cameron Powell will be an important contributor if<br />
Springston are to build on their first year in division one rugby.<br />
PHOTO: KAREN CASEY<br />
He said the return of Scott<br />
Edmonds to the loose forwards<br />
after a season ending ACL injury<br />
last year is a boost.<br />
”In the backs, we’ll be looking<br />
at our play-makers – Brett<br />
Mather, Harry Millar – to steer<br />
us around the park.<br />
“Traditionally, Lincoln has<br />
always had a strong forward<br />
pack and I think that’ll be our<br />
strength again, but we have some<br />
sharp backs, too.<br />
“Being undefeated at home and<br />
pushing for the playoffs would be<br />
great for us.”<br />
•West Melton<br />
Chris Fifield’s team is aiming<br />
to have a winning record this<br />
season.<br />
”We are similar in personnel<br />
to last year but with good playing<br />
numbers which is exciting,” he<br />
said.<br />
”Our goal is to make the top<br />
four but if we could win more<br />
games than we lose, that’d be<br />
great.<br />
“We’re more organised and<br />
we’re fitter than we were 12<br />
months ago.<br />
“We won’t have a heap of<br />
SPORT<br />
x-factor, but if we play well as a<br />
team, we’ll be right.”<br />
Fifield said much would rely on<br />
Kane Meyerhoff, who will likely<br />
run the backline from the No 10<br />
jersey but can also play halfback.<br />
The forwards will be led by<br />
co-captains Ben Calder and Dan<br />
Cunningham.<br />
•Rolleston<br />
Rolleston just managed to<br />
avoid the Ellesmere competition<br />
wooden spoon last year, and<br />
coach Tim Knowles is hoping an<br />
extended pre-season will see his<br />
team ready come Saturday.<br />
”We’ve been training as a team<br />
since October with a players<br />
academy in an effort to try<br />
something new,” he said.<br />
Knowles said the team is young<br />
with most of the players under<br />
the age of 25.<br />
”We want to be able to match<br />
it physically and start the season<br />
with a hiss and a roar and then<br />
the skills will come with more<br />
game-time,” he said.<br />
”The goal is to push for top<br />
four this year.<br />
“I think we’ll have a good frontrow,<br />
really strong set piece and<br />
we’ve brought some speed into<br />
the team to play that expansive<br />
game that we tend to play.”<br />
Knowles said he would like to<br />
see his team play complete 80min<br />
rugby, as opposed to last year<br />
where they often fell away in the<br />
last 20min.<br />
The team will rely on No 8 Sam<br />
Baird, but will also have 19-yearold<br />
former Canterbury Country<br />
under-18 representative Luke<br />
Inwood at No 10.<br />
•Hornby<br />
Last season’s cellar-dwellers<br />
want to be more competitive this<br />
season.<br />
Coach Steve Fenemor hopes<br />
a larger squad will create more<br />
competition for places and less<br />
fatigue.<br />
“It’s basically the same squad<br />
but with a few extra players,” he<br />
said.<br />
“We’ve got a young squad so we<br />
want to target a couple of games<br />
in each competition and topple a<br />
couple of teams.”<br />
New captain Jaydin Law can<br />
slot in anywhere from first-five to<br />
fullback and Fenemor hopes he<br />
can be a spark in the backline.<br />
In the forwards, front-rower<br />
Francis McGoon will be charged<br />
with laying a good platform for<br />
the young team.<br />
“If we could win four games in<br />
each competition we’d be really<br />
happy.<br />
“We don’t want to be the easybeats<br />
like we were at times last<br />
year.”<br />

Wild styling for Ford Ranger Raptor<br />
Motoring<br />
Ross Kiddie<br />
PIONEER OF the Ford Motor<br />
Co, and mass production, Henry<br />
Ford once said: “If it ain’t broke,<br />
why fix it?’’<br />
We could say the same today<br />
with one of Ford’s best engines,<br />
the fabulous 3.2-litre five-cylinder<br />
diesel that has given Ranger<br />
ute, and its off-shoot, the Everest<br />
sport utility vehicle, such good<br />
service over the years is now just<br />
an option. The Everest now utilises<br />
a 2-litre, four-cylinder twinturbocharged<br />
diesel which is also<br />
going into the Ranger Wildtrak<br />
and Raptor double-cab utes.<br />
It’s the latter vehicle this evaluation<br />
focuses on, the Raptor is an<br />
upgraded, upmarket version of<br />
the Ranger and it stands out for<br />
its hugely wild looks and aggressive<br />
stance. There’s been a lot of<br />
suspension development work<br />
on Raptor and with its huge tyres<br />
it looks as if it could take on any<br />
challenge.<br />
It’s the development work that<br />
makes the Raptor almost a different<br />
vehicle from Ranger, it<br />
is more comfortable to ride in,<br />
and you can tell immediately<br />
from being in the vehicle that the<br />
suspension is a step up. The ride<br />
is glorious, bumps and ruts are<br />
absorbed willingly, and there’s<br />
very little jiggle associated with<br />
vehicles which utilise a load carrying,<br />
live rear axle.<br />
I don’t know that Ford will get<br />
away unscathed with the new<br />
engine, while it is a beauty in<br />
terms of output, performance<br />
and refinement, educating buyers<br />
that 2-litre is enough in a 2300kg<br />
vehicle will be a big ask.<br />
However, I can report that the<br />
engine is up to task. Ford rate it<br />
with 157kW and a healthy500Nm<br />
of torque, both outputs developed<br />
low at 3750rpm and 1750rpm<br />
respectively.<br />
The engine drives through a<br />
10-speed automatic gearbox.<br />
There is an unmistakeable diesel<br />
throb, but it is well isolated from<br />
the cabin, and with the smooth<br />
gearshifts and seemingly endless<br />
supply of ratios, driveline sophistication<br />
has been a high manufacturing<br />
priority.<br />
Like all diesels, you can also<br />
expect great economy from the<br />
new four-potter. Bear in mind<br />
that the Raptor is a heavy vehicle,<br />
it carries a lot of kit, yet it is<br />
still rated by Ford with a 8.2-litre<br />
per 100km (35mpg) combined<br />
cycle average. I was pleased with<br />
the results appearing on the<br />
trip computer. The best average<br />
FORD RANGER RAPTOR: Four-wheel-drive ute.<br />
readout was showing 9.4l/100km<br />
(30mpg), with an instantaneous<br />
figure of around 6.5l/100km<br />
(44mpg) showing at 100km/h,<br />
the engine loping over at just<br />
1500rpm.<br />
At highway speed the engine is<br />
fully responsive, there was never<br />
a point when I felt it went offboost,<br />
the appropriate gear was<br />
always selected, while response to<br />
accelerator request is instant.<br />
In terms of acceleration, the<br />
Raptor will reach 100km/h from<br />
a standstill in 9sec, it is relatively<br />
quick off the line and will haul<br />
in mid-range speed with strong<br />
boost.<br />
The Raptor lands in New<br />
Zealand in just one variant and<br />
is listed at $84,990. It comes<br />
with all the trick gear Ford<br />
is building into its utes these<br />
days, and with the luxury and<br />
technological specification it’s<br />
hard to fathom it is a five-seater<br />
ute based on rugged go-anywhere<br />
mechanicals.<br />
That comment is based on the<br />
complex four-wheel-drive system,<br />
all options can be initiated<br />
through a centre console-mounted<br />
dial switch.<br />
Grip is supplied through<br />
massive 285/70 x 17in BF<br />
Goodrich all-terrain tyres, and<br />
with an amazing 283mm of<br />
ground clearance the Raptor is a<br />
formidable off-road challenger.<br />
If you think the Raptor is a<br />
vehicle which has the looks but<br />
no substance, it comes with special<br />
interior trim – leather and<br />
suede trim, keyless entry and<br />
• Price – Ford Ranger<br />
Raptor, $84,990<br />
• Dimensions – Length,<br />
5398mm; width, 2028mm;<br />
height, 1873mm<br />
• Configuration – Fourcylinder,<br />
four-wheel-drive,<br />
1996cc, 157kW, 500Nm,<br />
10-speed automatic.<br />
• Performance –<br />
0-100km/h, 9sec<br />
• Fuel usage – 8.2l/100km<br />
ignition, paddle-shift gear selectors,<br />
special display graphics and<br />
decals, and stop-start engine<br />
technology is all included.<br />
I wouldn’t have been happy if<br />
I hadn’t put the Raptor to good<br />
use. I used the deck area to take<br />
an errant plant that had grown<br />
out of control on the front of<br />
my property to the green waste<br />
depot.<br />
That’s one of the many reasons<br />
I like utes, they are versatile and<br />
practical. I also like the Raptor<br />
for its functionality at the other<br />
end, the new engine is something<br />
that will filter through other Ford<br />
product in time.<br />
The Raptor is certainly<br />
a ute for someone who likes to be<br />
noticed, however, it is far more<br />
than just a show pony. It has by<br />
far class-leading suspension, and<br />
with the well-proven mechanicals<br />
it is based on, it is another model<br />
which will keep Ford and Ranger<br />
market leaders for considerable<br />
time to come.

MY PRIDE AND JOY<br />
Street rod racing in<br />
Christchurch this Easter<br />
For just the third time in 30 years, the Street Rod Nationals will be held in Christchurch<br />
over Easter weekend and this year’s, Classic Cover Insurance N.Z. Street Rod<br />
Nationals promises to be a great event for hot rod and other motoring enthusiasts.<br />
The New Zealand Hot Rod Association (NZHRA)<br />
formed in Auckland, in the early sixties. It is the<br />
governing body of over 100 clubs around the country.<br />
The country’s first Hot Rod magazine was published<br />
back in 1967 and is still going strong today.<br />
Most countries in the world, participate in some<br />
form of hot rodding. It is a multi-billion dollar business<br />
in the United States and many local hot rodders bring<br />
totally finished cars in from that country. Thousands of<br />
enthusiasts also go to America each year to visit events<br />
where more than 10,000 cars may be competing, and<br />
to buy specialised parts not available in New Zealand.<br />
By the early 1970s, clubs were able to apply to hold<br />
the Street Rod Nationals and both the NZHRA and<br />
Hot Rod magazine have helped grow this hobby to an<br />
amazing standard in New Zealand. Some of the near<br />
perfect hot rod examples can cost over $150,000.<br />
Since 1990, the Nationals have only been held twice<br />
in Christchurch: the hugely successful 1994 QEII event<br />
which had 360 cars and over 1,000 entrants; and the<br />
2001 event held at the Riccarton Racecourse.<br />
This year’s event will again be held at Riccarton<br />
Racecourse (Racecourse Road, Christchurch) over<br />
Easter weekend. Public day is on Saturday, 20th April<br />
from 9.30am through to 3pm. The cost will be $10 per<br />
adult with children under 15 free.<br />
Car enthusiasts who have not entered will be<br />
able to park in a ‘preferred parking’ area especially<br />
saved for their cool pride and joy.<br />
Major sponsor for the nationals, Classic Cover<br />
Insurance N.Z. will have representatives on site to<br />
provide insurance quotes for cars. They promise to<br />
be very competitive. NZHRA will also have people<br />
available to answer any questions you may have. In<br />
addition, there will be many stalls including those<br />
selling food and drink.<br />
In addition to the show, entrants will compete<br />
in driving events, a car trial, museum visits and<br />
night time functions. So far, only a few local cars<br />
have entered with the majority of entrants coming<br />
from the North Island, including Gary Martin who<br />
is driving down from Hamilton in his steel 1932<br />
Ford 3 Window Coupe with supercharged Ardun<br />
engine.<br />
The Grand National champion hot rods from<br />
the previous Christchurch events will also be on<br />
display. Both are exactly the same as they were<br />
when first built. There are also plans to have a few<br />
partially built rods on show, demonstrating what is<br />
involved in their construction.<br />

Expert polishers<br />
When you have metal components in<br />
need of polishing and buffing you want a<br />
proper job.<br />
Eric and Fred Williams have operated<br />
Escort Metal Polishers for 45 years and<br />
in that time have worked on all kinds of<br />
metal finishing jobs. Whether it is metal<br />
polishing or abrasive (sand) blasting they<br />
are the experts.<br />
They will strip down components and<br />
polish them, lacquering fixtures like light<br />
fittings and door knobs and organising<br />
chroming, brass plating and aluminium<br />
anodising where required, making them a<br />
one-stop shop.<br />
“People come to us knowing the whole<br />
job will be taken care of, easier and faster,”<br />
says Fred.<br />
From small jobs for those restoring a<br />
motor vehicle or renovating a home, to<br />
work for large companies, the team at<br />
Escort Metal Polishers take it in their<br />
stride.<br />
“We do lots of one-off jobs for people<br />
coming in off the street as well as many large<br />
runs for engineers, building companies,<br />
automotive specialists, panel beaters, auto<br />
restorers and other businesses,” adds Fred.<br />
Over the years, the team have abrasive<br />
blasted motor bike frames, worked on<br />
countless mag wheels, cleaned up<br />
house lots of door and window<br />
handles, and looked after numerous<br />
marine work for people renovating<br />
or restoring boats where the brass<br />
fittings need cleaning and chrome<br />
plating. No wonder, the work of<br />
Escort Metal Polishers can be seen<br />
all around the city.<br />
Examples of their work include<br />
the large canoe like sculptures<br />
standing around 40 feet tall outside<br />
the Christchurch Art Gallery;<br />
fittings within the new Christchurch<br />
Hospital and justice precinct;<br />
and the restored Christchurch<br />
Town Hall’s brass kick plates, stair<br />
banisters, hand rails and more.<br />
The team always endeavour to<br />
work in with customer timeframes,<br />
turning work around quickly. Sandblasting<br />
is almost always taken care of within two<br />
days while polishing usually takes a week<br />
and chrome plating around three weeks.<br />
With few polishers now in business, you<br />
can be assured of experience, expertise and<br />
knowledge at Escort Metal Polishers. They<br />
understand all aspects of metal polishing<br />
and abrasive blasting ensuring a high<br />
quality finish no matter what the job.<br />

PETS & PAWS<br />
Choosing holiday<br />
care for your pets<br />
Winter is traditionally a time when<br />
people like to head overseas for their<br />
holidays – a chance to escape the cold<br />
and enjoy another summer in a warmer<br />
climate.<br />
The dilemma of what to do with your<br />
pets when you are planning an extended<br />
time away is part of owning a pet or two.<br />
Just like booking your airline tickets and<br />
accommodation in advance, you also<br />
need to decide where and how your pet<br />
will be looked after.<br />
Depending on how many animals you<br />
have and what type of animal they are<br />
will help you choose a carer or facility<br />
that will keep your pet safe, happy, and<br />
secure during your time away.<br />
A number of options are available and<br />
include a cattery, kennels, homesits or<br />
daily visits to your home.<br />
Catteries and Kennels<br />
When choosing a cattery or kennel,<br />
make an appointment to visit the facility<br />
and meet the owner and staff so that you<br />
can discuss the level of care available.<br />
Remember that not all facilities are equal<br />
– some may have bigger or smaller spaces<br />
and it will be up to you to work out how<br />
your pet will fit in and be happy while in<br />
residence. You will also need to have all<br />
your pet’s vaccinations, flea, and worm<br />
treatments up to date.<br />
Homesits<br />
Pet homesitting is a poplar option for<br />
pet owners who are planning on being<br />
away for a while, have several pets or<br />
who have a pet that does not like to be<br />
taken out of its environment. The pet<br />
sitter will move into your home and ‘live’<br />
with your pets while you are away. The<br />
benefit of this is that your pet will have<br />
all day care and company plus you’ll have<br />
the comfort and security of knowing<br />
your home is being looked after, too. The<br />
homesitter may also be responsible for<br />
other duties too such as collecting your<br />
mail, watering the garden and mowing<br />
the lawns.<br />
Daily Pet Visits<br />
Pet care home visits are often suitable<br />
for short holidays – over a weekend or up<br />
to a week. The petsitter will visit your pets<br />
daily to feed, exercise and generally care<br />
for your pets. A visit may be half an hour<br />
to an hour depending on the number of<br />
pets. The petsitter may also water plants,<br />
collect mail and generally keep an eye on<br />
the security of your property.<br />
Whatever pet care<br />
you choose, make<br />
sure that you and your<br />
pet are comfortable<br />
with your choice so<br />
you can have a happy<br />
time away knowing<br />
your pet is in good<br />
hands.<br />

Gardening<br />
Editorial supplied by<br />

Setting up small spaces in your back yard<br />
• By Hannah Zwartz<br />
WHAT’S A ‘small’ garden?<br />
Usually urban, it could be many<br />
things – a strip between front<br />
fence and veranda, a pocketsized<br />
backyard, a courtyard or<br />
patio, or even a balcony.<br />
What all small gardens have<br />
in common is that (as with tiny<br />
houses) every centimetre counts.<br />
Design needs to be pared back<br />
and concentrated, including only<br />
what’s essential.<br />
There’s something very restful<br />
about this. The beauty of a small<br />
garden is you can probably<br />
spend more per square metre<br />
on soil, paving and plants.<br />
Less weeding and watering<br />
means more time to relax and<br />
appreciate your sanctuary.<br />
And the more urban your<br />
environment, the more valuable<br />
your green space becomes.<br />
Making your space a<br />
pleasurable place to be starts<br />
with the physical elements: sun/<br />
shade, wind, views and access<br />
to water (see the list on page<br />
53 for hints on mapping these).<br />
Then there are the human needs.<br />
What do you use the garden<br />
for – cooking and entertaining?<br />
A private retreat? Extra living<br />
space? A wild space for kids to<br />
play? Growing vegetables, fruit<br />
or herbs? Even a small garden<br />
space can meet all these needs.<br />
Built-in structures need to<br />
multitask. Steps and decking<br />
can double as seating, as can<br />
generous built-in edges on a<br />
raised bed or sandpit. Screens<br />
to give privacy (or hide the<br />
bins) can double as supports<br />
for cucumbers or sweet peas.<br />
For shade structures, adaptable<br />
options like umbrellas,<br />
retractable awnings/sails or<br />
pergolas planted with deciduous<br />
vines give you options for more<br />
sun in winter and less in summer.<br />
When it comes to planting,<br />
choose carefully. Cramming lots<br />
of different colours and textures<br />
into a small area is like a room<br />
filled with clutter – it makes the<br />
space seem smaller. Growing<br />
in pots gives you the chance to<br />
change things around, but a few<br />
large pots are easier to care for<br />
than many little ones, which dry<br />
out quickly.<br />
Simplifying your planting<br />
palette can make a small space<br />
look bigger. Plants with large<br />
leaves, such as monstera, fig<br />
or taro, seem to be closer than<br />
they are, so backing them with<br />
fine-textured plants creates an<br />
illusion of distance. Blur the<br />
boundaries by covering at least<br />
some of the walls or fences with<br />
vines, or tall upright plants<br />
like rushes or bamboo (wellcontained<br />
to prevent a takeover).<br />
Look at the plants’ eventual size<br />
and choose those that won’t<br />
outgrow their space.<br />
Small gardens often have<br />
corners of full shade, so avoid<br />
slippery paving in these areas.<br />
Instead, make the most of them<br />
for shade-loving plants like ferns<br />
and mosses, which hate to dry<br />
out.<br />
Even a small garden has room<br />
for edibles – maybe not all your<br />
favourite vegetables, but you<br />
can start with fresh salad greens<br />
and herbs. Lots of veges thrive<br />
in containers, and dwarf fruit<br />
trees can grow in a barrel if given<br />
plenty of liquid feed. If you only<br />
have room for one fruit tree,<br />
choose your very favourite – for<br />
me, it would have to be a lemon<br />
tree for the fragrance of its<br />
flowers as well as the flavour of<br />
its fruits.<br />
IMAGINATION: Above –<br />
Cramming a lot of different<br />
plants into a space can make<br />
it seem smaller. Left – Curate<br />

An incredible opportunity<br />
In what can only be described as an exceptional opportunity for investors and developers, this row of four student<br />
flats occupies a substantial 4,015m 2 section near Lincoln University and is offered to the market on an “as is, where<br />
is” basis. These four properties are set on a single title, and each is identically configured with the layouts featuring<br />
four double bedrooms and a bathroom. Heating varies between each property with some including log burners<br />
while others benefit from multiple heat pumps. Depending on your course of action, you could repair, renovate and<br />
add value to each of the dwellings. Developers with an eye to the future may have more radical plans in mind, in this<br />
flourishing community setting. With Lincoln University located across the road, this property is also zoned for<br />
Lincoln Primary and Lincoln High School. Investors and developers will recognise the undeniable potential on offer.<br />

What the new anti-money<br />
laundering laws mean for<br />
property transactions<br />
New rules designed to stamp out money<br />
laundering and financing terrorism in New<br />
Zealand mean that the real estate industry must<br />
prove the identities of the people it works with.<br />
You might think that criminal financial<br />
activities only happen in the movies or overseas,<br />
but it’s estimated that $1.35 billion is laundered<br />
in New Zealand every year. The true cost, and<br />
social impact, is much higher. Criminals use<br />
various methods to ‘wash’ the money they make<br />
from crimes to avoid detection. Making it look<br />
like it’s come from a legitimate source – such<br />
as buying or selling property or using financial<br />
services – is an established way to do it. Now,<br />
thanks to law changes that came into force on<br />
January 1, <strong>2019</strong>, you’ll have to prove who you<br />
are when you’re buying or selling a property.<br />
If you’ve bought and sold a property before<br />
you’ll know that each real estate transaction is a<br />
bit like a jigsaw puzzle. All the people involved<br />
– banks or lenders, lawyers and real estate<br />
agents - play a part to help protect the integrity<br />
of the transaction and ensure that the puzzle<br />
pieces fit together correctly. This includes<br />
making sure that the client is who they say they<br />
are to help reduce the risk of criminal activity.<br />
While it may seem a bit of a pain, the real<br />
estate agent must confirm your identity,<br />
including your date of birth and your address<br />
details, before you sign an agency agreement<br />
with them. This might seem a bit ridiculous if<br />
you’ve known the agent for a long time, or even<br />
used their agency before, but it’s all part of the<br />
due diligence they need to perform to meet the<br />
new rules.<br />
The information you’re asked for will<br />
vary depending on whether you’re selling<br />
the property as an individual or as part of a<br />
partnership, company, estate or trust. If you’re<br />
selling as an individual, you’ll need to provide<br />
photo ID and be ready to answer any other<br />
questions the agency may have. If you’re selling<br />
a family trust property, you’ll need to provide<br />
this kind of verified identification for all the<br />
members of the trust and its beneficiaries.<br />
Ideally, these requirements won’t slow down<br />
the process at all. It’s a good idea to get as much<br />
documentation ready as you can – when you’re<br />
talking to an agent, ask them what they’d like<br />
you to bring along. Complying with anti-money<br />
laundering rules is like completing any part of<br />
the real estate transaction: it works best when<br />
everyone follows the process.<br />

Can I trust a seller’s building report?<br />
If you’ve been to an open home recently, or<br />
been browsing the ‘for sale’ adverts, you might<br />
have noticed that some sellers put together<br />
information packs for potential buyers. These<br />
sellers will know that researching a property<br />
takes time and money, and they don’t want this<br />
to be a barrier to a successful sale. They believe<br />
that providing information like a LIM (a Land<br />
Information Memorandum from the local<br />
council) and a building inspection report can help<br />
busy people get an offer on the table. This is great<br />
in theory, but you need to tread carefully all the<br />
same.<br />
If, for example, a real estate agent or seller<br />
gives you a LIM for the property, check carefully<br />
when it was prepared. A LIM is a summary of<br />
all the current property information held by the<br />
different departments at a council at the time. It<br />
contains details of council consents for any work<br />
done, how much the rates are and information<br />
on any geographic hazards that might have an<br />
impact on the property, such as subsidence. Bear<br />
in mind that this information can be reasonably<br />
general – the LIM for most houses in Wellington<br />
will say that they’re located in a high wind area,<br />
for example. If the LIM is dated a couple of weeks<br />
ago, it’s safe to assume it’s reasonably up to date.<br />
If it’s dated a year ago, it’s a good idea to make<br />
further enquiries. Getting a LIM costs money in<br />
most areas (prices vary from council to council).<br />
You can also ask to see the property file held by<br />
the council, which holds other information about<br />
a property, like a site map and original house<br />
plans.<br />
Building reports are a bit trickier. Using a<br />
building report provided by the seller (or the<br />
real estate agent working for them) may seem<br />
like an easy option in the short term. However,<br />
if you buy the property and then find problems<br />
with it that cost a significant amount to fix, you’re<br />
not protected by the building report because the<br />
inspector’s contract is with the seller, not you. The<br />
Real Estate Authority (REA) recommends using<br />
an accredited property inspector who complies<br />
with the New Zealand building inspection<br />
standard 4306:2005. Their written report will<br />
identify any current defects as well as highlight<br />
any urgent and long-term maintenance required.<br />
Look for someone who has a good level of<br />
indemnity insurance, as this will protect you if<br />
you buy the property and then find you need to<br />
fix something that wasn’t in the report. Building<br />
inspections do come at a cost, but we think it’s<br />
worth it to be sure that you’re fully aware of what<br />
you’re signing up for. Depending on the age of the<br />
house you’re looking at don’t necessarily expect<br />
a thin report saying there are no issues. Many<br />
wooden houses in New Zealand are over 50 years<br />
old and there will be things the inspector needs<br />
to point out. Make sure you understand what<br />
normal age-related matters are (that may not be<br />
major issues), compared to significant repairs<br />
needed in the short term to fix a problem. The<br />
report you receive should separate these things<br />
out - if it doesn’t, then ask the inspector about the<br />
difference.<br />
If you end up with a report with a lot of<br />
information about the property it doesn’t mean<br />
you should walk away. Instead, see it as giving<br />
you the opportunity to know what you’re buying.<br />
Doing this before you make an offer means you<br />
are fully aware of what the property may need to<br />
have done to it and your offer figure can reflect<br />
that. However, if you don’t feel comfortable<br />
paying for a building report before you make<br />
an offer, you can make a property inspection a<br />
condition of your offer. Like most things in life,<br />
buying a property will go more smoothly if you<br />
put the work in. If a short cut seems too good to<br />
be true, it usually is.<br />

Your guide to Show Homes & New Sections<br />
in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> District<br />
Sustainable<br />
residential living<br />
Eco-design for healthy and<br />
sustainable living is the aim for<br />
Lincoln’s newest residential<br />
housing subdivision.<br />
Located near Lincoln<br />
University, Verdeco Park covers 90<br />
hectares of land divided into 225<br />
lots of 113 standard residential<br />
sections between 600sqm<br />
and 1,000sqm, and 112 rural<br />
residential lots of 3,000-6,000sqm<br />
(all TC1 land).<br />
While on the doorstep of<br />
Lincoln and within walking<br />
distance of shops, Verdeco<br />
Park is surrounded by rural<br />
land, unlikely to be rezoned<br />
residential, meaning the subdivision will<br />
be its own community with a small town<br />
feel.<br />
Officially launched in October last year,<br />
the developers have received considerable<br />
interest in their latest subdivision with<br />
many private buyers looking to build their<br />
dream family home in a relaxed attractive<br />
setting where there is wide and open<br />
public green reserves.<br />
Developer, Shane Kennedy says the<br />
larger sections are proving very popular.<br />
Many people are attracted by the features<br />
Verdeco Park will offer. These include<br />
native plantings, larger trees, walk and<br />
cycle ways, and a community orchard.<br />
Shane admits Verdeco Park is a<br />
subdivision he too wants to live in.<br />
The promise of more spacious living<br />
is exciting potential buyers to Verdeco<br />
Park and the developers are helping<br />
those looking to build there, by providing<br />
information on how to achieve a healthier<br />
home. The aim is to create a subdivision<br />
which truly embraces eco design and<br />
sustainable living.<br />
“When it comes to building healthier<br />
warmer homes, New Zealand’s building<br />
standard is around 25 years behind many<br />
countries with Europe and America<br />
well ahead. We’d like to see the homes at<br />
Verdeco Park built above New Zealand<br />
building code. It doesn’t cost much more<br />
to build a better home,” explains Shane.<br />
The Verdeco Park team are holding<br />
seminars which look at the difference<br />
between standard and insulated walls and<br />
foundations, as well as ventilation and<br />
eco sustainable products, along with what<br />
makes an environmentally friendly home.<br />
Shane says it is as much about cooling<br />
our houses down in summer<br />
as it is about heating them up<br />
in winter with aspects such as<br />
positioning for the sun, ensuring<br />
sufficient overhang and installing<br />
solar energy all making a<br />
difference.<br />
“We’re not prescribing the<br />
products to be used or how<br />
homes are to be built. We’re<br />
simply providing information<br />
about what is available and<br />
how certain building products<br />
might be better yet not much<br />
more expensive. It allows people<br />
looking to build to have a better<br />
understanding of their options for a<br />
healthier home,” adds Shane.<br />
They have also looked at the degree<br />
of building wastage with some builders<br />
already addressing ways to minimise this.<br />
The next seminar will be held in<br />
April with some Verdeco Park<br />
purchasers and suppliers sharing<br />
their experiences on how to build<br />
a healthy eco-friendly home. To<br />

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

Tips On Buying A Bach<br />
Having a place to get away from it all is<br />
an attractive prospect. It’s easy to fall in<br />
love with the thought of your own slice of<br />
paradise, particularly if it’s in a popular spot.<br />
But buying a holiday property, whether it’s<br />
a bach at the beach or a rural idyll, is every<br />
bit as complex as buying a home that you<br />
live in full-time. That means you need to do<br />
your homework first to avoid any hassles<br />
– and that you engage a lawyer to help you<br />
through the process.<br />
Once you’ve found a property you like,<br />
it’s essential that you and your lawyer look<br />
at all the relevant documents, such as the<br />
legal title and any information that the<br />
council has about the property, as recorded<br />
on the LIM. A title search will reveal any<br />
‘invisible’ issues relating to the boundary<br />
or access. You should also check with the<br />
council whether there are any proposed<br />
developments in the area that could<br />
have an impact on the property and the<br />
neighbourhood.<br />
It’s a good idea to get the property<br />
thoroughly checked by someone who can<br />
identify significant defects, future or urgent<br />
maintenance issues and problems caused by<br />
gradual deterioration. It’s not uncommon<br />
for a coastal holiday property to have a<br />
few more maintenance issues than you<br />
might expect from a city townhouse. We<br />
recommend using a qualified and insured<br />
building inspector to do this work.<br />
If you get a DIY guru friend in to have a<br />
look instead, ask them to look for structural<br />
problems, any evidence that the property is<br />
a leaky building, issues caused by deferred<br />
maintenance (such as weatherboards rotting<br />
due to peeling paint)<br />
and areas where there is<br />
damp or mould. Simple<br />
things like aged electrical<br />
or water supply fixtures<br />
may also create headaches<br />
later on if not managed<br />
up front. Don’t forget to<br />
factor in costs for fixing<br />
any identified problems<br />
that may be significantly<br />
more involved to manage<br />
than town repairs and<br />
maintenance, as well as<br />
plan for long-term upkeep.<br />
Depending on where the property is,<br />
you also need to be hard-headed about the<br />
risk of natural hazards such as tsunami or<br />
coastal erosion. Earlier this year, a report<br />
commissioned by the Deep South National<br />
Science Challenge pointed out that nearly<br />
44,000 homes in New Zealand are less<br />
than 1.5 metres above the current average<br />
spring high tide mark. With rising sea levels<br />
and increasing likelihood of storm surges<br />
and king tides predicted, many of these<br />
properties are at serious risk of frequent<br />
inundation. Unsurprisingly, insurers are<br />
nervy about this, with some companies<br />
already raising premiums or excesses for<br />
properties that have been identified as highrisk,<br />
or putting restrictions on what they<br />
will cover. It can be difficult to get finance<br />
approved if a property cannot be insured, so<br />
it pays to investigate this closely.<br />
If you get through all those steps and the<br />
property still looks like a good bet, think<br />
about the long-term. Are you thinking about<br />
using it to earn an income when you’re<br />
not in residence, such as renting it out or<br />
putting it on AirBnB or a similar platform?<br />
Be aware that some councils are tightening<br />
up restrictions on homeowners doing this,<br />
which could affect your plans and costs.<br />
Take a moment to think about security as<br />
well. Getting settled in your new holiday<br />
home is one thing, but consider what<br />
happens when you’re not there.<br />
Finally, if the property you are keen on is<br />
being sold privately, be aware that you may<br />
have fewer protections under the Consumer<br />
Guarantees Act and the Fair Trading Act if<br />
things go wrong. While no one enters into<br />
a sale thinking that problems are going to<br />
arise, issues can often crop up. Nothing<br />
will dim your holiday glow like the lasting<br />
memory of a poorly researched property<br />
decision.<br />
