Shingle road battle ‘beyond a joke’ 

ENOUGH: John Jebson and Grant Prescott have had enough of fighting to improve the condition of Wards Rd. 

• By Anan Zaki 

“BEYOND A bloody joke.” 

This is how John Jebson 

describes the 17-year battle 

Wards Rd residents’ have been 

in with the district council over 

sealing their shingle road. 

The rural Darfield residents 

have been campaigning to seal 

Wards Rd, between Charing 

Cross and Greendale Rd, since 

2002 – with no success. 

After seeing crashes, pot 

holes and “feeble” repairs – the 

residents have had enough. 

“Between 5.30 and eight in 

the morning, there’s a pretty

reasonable constant stream 

of vehicles using it to by 

pass Darfield,” Mr Jebson 

said.

Broughton 

now says 

no to 

stadium 

funding 


MAYOR SAM Broughton has 

changed his tune over ratepayers 

funding a new multi-use stadium 

in Christchurch. 

Last year Mr Broughton said 

the district should help fund the 

stadium, which is expected to 

cost between $384 

million and $561 

million. 

But he now 

says Selwyn 

ratepayers should 

not contribute. Mr 

Broughton told 

Selwyn Times this 

Sam 

Broughton 

week Christchurch City Council 

“missed an opportunity” when 

it approved $253 million for the 

project in September. The balance 

of the money will be from the 

Government. Mr Broughton said 

if the city council wants help from 

Selwyn and other councils in 

the region that would have been 

the time to raise it. Residents’ 

associations have also backed Mr 

Broughton’s new viewpoint. 

The district council has no 

plans to discuss a contribution as 

it has not been asked for funding.

SELWYN TIMES 

I’M NOT surprised Sam Broughton has 

changed his tune over Selwyn ratepayers 

fronting up for the big Christchurch 

stadium (page 1). 

It was madness for him to suggest we 

help fund it in the first place – certainly not 

without asking the people who’s pockets the money will come 

from. 

Selwyn is undergoing its own major growing pains, with more 

to come. Charges for water for example, when in Christchurch 

they give it away. We will need our own sports stadium in the 

years to come. Will Christchurch ratepayers front up? Of course 

not. You wouldn’t expect them to. 

There’s been too much mucking around over the Christchurch 

stadium. Just build one like the 30,000 seater Bankwest Stadium 

in Sydney’s western suburbs. Cost: $US300m. Manageable.

Plough blamed for phone outage 


A MOLE plough machine was 

responsible for the biggest ever 

outage to the district’s fibre 

network. 

About 2000 customers in Lincoln 

and Tai Tapu lost landline 

and internet connections for 

more than a day due to the incident 

last Tuesday at 2.20pm. 

The fibre cable was damaged on 

Weedons Rd, near Lincoln. 

Fibre provider Enable said the 

incident caused “significant” 

damage to the 

fibre line and 

affected all 

internet service 

providers such 

as 2degrees, 

Spark and 

Vodafone. 

Said Enable 

strategic communications 

Daniel Herd 

manager Daniel Herd: “We’ve 

operated our network for close 

to six years in the Selwyn district 

and this is the first significant 

outage.” 

The damage was caused by 

a contractor working for an 

infrastructure company, but 

when Selwyn Times asked who 

was responsible, Enable did not 

answer. 

“Our primary initial focus 

was on getting services back up 

RECONNECTED: Lincoln has the fourth highest uptake of 

fibre broadband in the Enable Network, but connection was 

interrupted last week. 

and running for our customers. 

Which we did quickly,” Mr Herd 

said. 

“We’re now focused on investigating 

what happened.” 

The majority of customers had 

fibre restored on Wednesday 

about 5.15pm, more than 24 

hours after the incident. 

Essential customers such as 

emergency and medical services 

were restored within a “few 

hours,” Mr Herd said. 

Lincoln University was not affected 

by the outage. 

Mr Herd said he did not know 

what the repair costs were, but 

the responsible party would have 

to foot the bill. 

During the outage, service 

provider Spark’s customers faced 

long waits to call centres. 

A customer in Lincoln told the 

Selwyn Times he experienced a 

two hour wait last Tuesday from 

6.15pm to 8.15pm before hanging 

up, only to find the call centre 

had closed at 8pm when he tried 

again. A Spark spokeswoman 

said all calls started before 8pm 

would be answered. 

“In this customer’s case, had 

they remained on the line, their 

call would have been answered; 

however, as they hung up and 

tried again after 8pm, they heard 

the message stating the call 

centre was closed.” 

Spark apologised for the long 

wait time. 

“Unfortunately, given the 

unexpected nature of outages, we 

do have occasions when our wait 

times are longer than we want 

them to be,” the spokeswoman 

said. The chat service “usually” 

has a faster response time than 

calling, she said. 

Lincoln has the fourth 

highest uptake of fibre in the 

Enable network, which provides 

connections to the district, 

Christchurch and Waimakariri 

district. Sixty-nine per cent 

of households in Lincoln have 

fibre, the highest uptake in the 

district is Rolleston with 77 per 

cent of households having fibre 

connections.

Mayor says no to funding new stadium 

•From page 1 

Mr Broughton revealed his 

U-turn on funding the stadium 

after he was put on the spot about 

the topic last week. 

He was asked by city councillor 

Yani Johanson about the issue at 

an Annual Plan submission in 

Christchurch. 

Cr Johanson 

asked if both 

councils should 

work together 

on the proposed 

stadium. 

“So you’re 

Bruce 

Russell 

happy for us 

[Christchurch] to 

pay for the whole 

stadium?” Cr Johanson asked. 

In response, Mr Broughton 

said he could not answer the 

question as the district hasn’t 

been asked to pay. 

Said Mr Broughton: “At the 

moment Christchurch and the 

[central] Government can pay 

for what they are wanting to 

build, so there’s no need for extra 

discussion.” 

He said his viewpoint was 

based on a number of factors. 

“It’s based on discussions 

with ratepayers and also on the 

idea that while many things are 

better done locally by a town or 

a district, other things can be 

achieved better by working as a 

region,” Mr Broughton said. 

“I think the multi-use stadium 

has the interest of the region 

and is of the scale that a regional 

discussion should have been 

had.” 

Selwyn Times canvassed 

residents’ group members from 

across the district about the 

stadium debate. 

West Melton Residents’ 

Association member Bruce 

Russell welcomed Mr 

Broughton’s new direction. 

“I believe we should have a 

stadium, there’s no question 

about that,” he said. 

“I would have some 

reservations, though, if we as a 

council should be levied a rate 

for it. I think that it’s individual. 

If they [Christchurch] want it 

desperately, they should be the 

ones who are contributing.” 

NO GO: 

Mayor Sam 

Broughton 

no longer 

believes 

the district 

should help 

fund a new 

stadium in 

Christchurch. 

Rolleston Residents’ 

Association chairwoman Leonie 

MacLachlan said, in her opinion, 

the district should not pay for the 

stadium. 

“I don’t want to pay for a 

stadium in Christchurch out 

of anything from the district 

council. I believe if it was the 

other way around, Christchurch 

City Council would not help us 

in anyway,” she said. 

Leeston Community 

Committee chairman Lloyd 

Clausen said, in his personal 

view, he agreed with Mr 

Broughton’s change of tune. 

Mr Broughton hoped the 

stadium would meet whichever 

standards may be demanded by 

the rest of Canterbury. 

“If the region of Canterbury 

had been involved from the start, 

I think that would have been a 

better process,” he said. 

Environment Canterbury was 

the only local body that could 

set a regional rate to fund the 

stadium, Mr Broughton said. 

But ECan has previously stated 

it did not include the stadium in 

its 2018-2028 Long Term Plan as 

it was never asked for funding 

by the city council and central 

Government. Its next Long Term 

Plan review is in 2021.

Fight to seal Wards Rd 

•From page 1 

“The road is rough with 

corrugations in it (and) 

when it rains there’s a lot of 

potholes.” 

Grant Prescott moved 

in the same year his 

neighbours’ fight began. 

“We’ve moaned about 

this since 2002, but it’s 

increased significantly 

since 2005 

because the 

amount of use 

has increased 

so much, it’s 

incredible,” Mr 

Prescott said. 

“We’ve got 

truck and 

trailers, on a 

Wednesday 

it’s bedlam 

because it’s 

Coalgate’s 

market day 

for sheep and cattle so the 

stock trucks go up and 

down all day long.” 

There has also been a 

number of crashes, most of 

which go unreported, Mr 

Prescott said. 

“The council keep on 

saying you don’t meet the 

criteria. When we asked 

what the criteria is they 

said we want you to have at 

least 12 houses,” he said. 

Murray Washington 

“When we had 14 

[houses], they said you 

need so many vehicles a 

day use it.” 

But district council 

assets manager Murray 

Washington said there 

is no traffic movement 

criteria to seal a road. 

He also said the council 

would meet Wards Rd 

residents on 

Tuesday to 

discuss their 

concerns. 

“The council’s 

current works 

plan for 

Wards Rd is 

to continue 

to maintain 

the road as an 

unsealed road, 

but we will 

be discussing 

possible options 

to address residents’ 

concerns at the meeting,” 

Mr Washington said. 

He referred to the 

district council’s seal 

extension policy, which 

stated it “will not fund 

public requests for road 

seal extensions.” 

The policy states if 

landowners want a road 

sealed they must pay for it 

and maintain it for at least 

10 years at their cost, before 

the district council takes 

over. 

The policy also states 

the district council may 

consider funding any seal 

extension projects which 

meet the New Zealand 

Transport Agency’s 

guidelines for funding. 

But the district council 

said Wards Rd does not 

meet the NZTA guidelines. 

Mr Washington said 57 

vehicles use the road every 

day. 

But Mr Prescott disputed 

the count – which was 

taken at Charing Cross. He 

said traffic from Darfield 

does not often reach 

Charing Cross and he 

would raise the issue at the 

meeting with the district 

council on Tuesday. 

Mr Prescott said the 

district council’s stance 

“beggars belief.” 

“That bit about the tar 

sealing [policy] makes my 

blood boil, because Selwyn 

District Council are tar 

sealing East Maddisons Rd 

[in Rolleston] this year.” 

“We are being neglected 

because there’s just spend, 

spend and spend in 

Rolleston and ignoring 

everything else,” he said.

Speed limits to 

get overhaul 

A RAFT of speed limit changes 

are being proposed for the 

district. 

District council staff recommended 

32 changes in its Speed 

Limit Bylaw review. 

If the changes are approved 

by councillors at today’s district 

council meeting, they will come 

into effect from August 1. 

In a report, district council 

team leader transportation Mark 

Chamberlain said the changes 

are mainly to do with replacing 

70km/h speed limits with 

the New Zealand Transport 

Agency’s Speed Management 

Guide. 

Roads with speed limits of 

70km/h are recommended to be 

brought down to 60km/h. 

Speed limits outside rural 

schools would also be reduced to 

40km/h, Mr Chamberlain said. 

“As part of the discussion on 

speed limit changes adopted by 

council in February 2018, it was 

requested that speed limits at 

schools be reviewed,” he said. 

“As a result the proposal to 

have permanent 40 km/hr speed 

limits outside urban schools” 

was included in consultation 

Consultation was opened from 

CHANGE: Many roads with 

70km/h speed limits could 

be dropped to 60km/h in a 

new proposal by the district 

council. 

December to February. 

District council staff also 

proposed to review the 50 km/h 

urban speed limit area with the 

intention to reducing this to 40 

km/h across a broader residential 

catchment and including as 

many schools as appropriate. 

Mr Chamberlain said there are 

no “significant” financial implications 

for the district council, 

should the speed limits change. 

“Changing existing signs and 

installation of new signs will be 

funded from existing roading 

budgets.” 

Leighton starts off the duck 

hunting season with a bang 

FISH & Game has applauded 

duck hunters for a “safe and 

compliant” start to the new duck 

shooting season which began on 

Saturday morning. 

Thousands turned out to hunt 

birds, such as mallards and 

paradise shelducks. 

Among the hunters was seven 

year-old Leighton Mehlhopt, of 

Burnham, who went shooting at 

a pond near the Selwyn River. 

Fish & Game spokesman 

Richard Cosgrove said Leighton 

shot his first duck on the opening 

day of the season. 

It was his second duck 

shooting season, but he did not 

shoot any last year, Mr Cosgrove 

said. 

Hunters appear to have taken 

the ‘safety first’ advice and other 

messages on board – particularly 

those relating to the new firearm 

laws, he said. 

“At this stage, we’ve had no 

reports of any firearm-related 

incidents or injuries, which is 

gratifying given the thousands 

who have headed out to harvest 

birds.” 

“At the same time, we have 

had no reports from any of our 

12 regions of any prohibited 

firearms being seized.” 

Also out by the Selwyn River 

FIRST CATCH: Leighton Mehlhopt shot his first duck at a pond 

near the Selwyn River on the opening day of duck shooting 

season. PHOTO: RICHARD COSGROVE/FISH & GAME 

was Kurtis Smith, of Rangiora. 

Mr Smith has spina bifida – 

meaning he can’t walk without 

crutches. It was his first duck 

shooting season, and he went 

shooting with Leighton and his 

family. 

Mr Cosgrove said Mr Smith 

managed to shoot his first duck 

and “many more” throughout 

the day. 

North Canterbury Fish & 

Game officer Dirk Barr said 

hunters have been out in large 

numbers. Areas with open water, 

such as Lake Ellesmere, shot well 

for some time, he said. 

“Most hunters in the area all 

managed to shoot two or more 

birds in the first hour, and some 

in the right places had very good 

tallies, with some reaching their 

bag limit of 25 birds,” Mr Barr 

said.

Tour The Willows on opening day 

THE WILLOWS will be officially 

opened on Saturday. 

The park has been developed 

in West Melton by Environment 

Canterbury, in conjunction with 

the district council, for nonmotorised 

recreational activities. 

Park-goers will be able to make 

the most of a dedicated walking 

and cycling trail, and there is a 

camping area for New Zealand 

Motor Caravan Association 

members. 

The Willows is located at the 

end of Thompsons Rd, off Old 

West Coast Rd. The opening 

will start at noon on Saturday. 

Everyone is welcome, and people 

are encouraged to arrive from 

11.30am. 

ECan park rangers will be 

at the opening to show people 

around the park and Mayor Sam 

Broughton will also attend. 

ECan team leader parks and 

forests James Page said it is an 

exciting development for the 

region. 

“Cantabrians and visitors to the 

Selwyn area can make the most 

of this park,” Mr Page said. 

“We are very proud of this 

development and believe it has 

something for everyone to 

enjoy.” 

There will be fishing access 

along the river frontage at The 

Willows and Weedons Forest, 

PREPARATIONS: ECan field ranger Greg Stanley helps West 

Melton School pupils water the trees they planted. 

with access via Thompsons and 

Weedons Ross Rds. 

Trail bike riders will have a 

dedicated area at the Weedons 

Ross Rd end of the park. 

The trail bike area will link up 

with 28km of additional trails 

downstream at Miners Forest 

through to Haul Rd. 

Four-wheel drive enthusiasts 

can access the river upstream 

of Intake Rd on the southbank 

or the north-bank of the 

Waimakariri River, west of 

Harrs Rd. In the lead-up to the 

opening, about 75 students from 

West Melton School had the 

opportunity to help plant trees at 

The Willows to aid the long-term 

sustainability of the park. 

“It was great to be able to 

engage with our community 

and ensure 

the children 

were part of 

something 

that will be a 

valuable asset 

to Canterbury 

for years to 

come,” Mr Page 

said. 

New Zealand 

Motor Caravan Association 

national policy and planning 

manager James Imlach was 

pleased with the partnership. 

“There is growing demand 

James Imlach 

within our membership for more 

destination-type campsites that 

provide safe and easy access to 

passive recreational activities, 

such as fishing spots, walking 

and cycling tracks,” Mr Imlach 

said.

SNACK: Vittoria shares a post-mushroom afternoon tea with Loki. 

Fungus freak-out 

AFTER NEARLY six 

months in the role I’m 

getting pretty confident, 

but last week I had a major 

freak-out which brought 

me back to earth. 

Like any toddler, Vittoria 

is quick on her feet. Not like 

regular quick mind you, 

any adult can smash a toddler 

in a foot race. 

Nah, toddlers have a 

magic power which lets 

them teleport to wherever 

you don’t want them as 

soon as their parents’ eyes 

are off them. 

Last Tuesday, I looked 

away for a second and 

she was standing on the 

TV cabinet (cue lounge 

rearrangement). 

That was not the worst 

one though. 

Recently, I turned away to 

check my phone as we were 

playing out front and before 

I knew it she had grabbed 

up a mushroom from the 

bunch growing near the 

bins and shoved it in her 

wee gob. 

I’m no botanist – and I 

don’t even know if botanists 

know about mushrooms – so 

I had zero clue what it was. 

All I could think about 

was that it could be poisonous. 

So I fished out what I 

could of the mushroom and 

washed her mouth out. Vittoria 

was not impressed. 

Potential futures rushed 

through my mind; bolting to 

the emergency room, Vittoria 

foaming from the mouth, 

her in a hospital bed. 

So I rang the poison 

hotline for the first time in 

my life and was happy to be 

calmed, reassured and have 

signs to keep watch for. 

I kept a sample of the 

mushrooms and made 

the classic “don’t worry, 

Vittoria’s okay” phone call 

to Laura. An hour later, 

through some research, I 

found out the mushroom 

was an edible species. 

The relief that Vittoria 

VITTORIA 

& Matt 

was actually going to be fine 

had another element to it. 

I felt like if she had 

actually been sick from the 

mushroom, or needed to go 

the hospital, it would prove 

that I was a bad parent and 

incapable of looking after 

her on my own. 

It was on my watch. 

“What would people 

think?” actually went 

through my head even 

though I feel I took all the 

right steps in the situation. 

As the TV cabinet episode 

proves, I didn’t quite 

learn my lesson. 

Now I just have all of the 

regular parenting worries to 

deal with. Easy.

SELWYN TIMES 

Nicole Schaap 

Turning a lifetime of love of music into 

Rolleston drummer, 

singer and songwriter 

Nicole Schaap, 26, and 

her band Moonflower 

are celebrating the 

release of their first 

album with a tour. She 

spoke to Anan Zaki 

about the band and her 

musical career 

Tell me about your band, 

Moonflower? 

Basically it started a couple of 

years ago when I started writing 

some decent sort of songs. I had 

been writing for a few years but 

hadn’t really put anything decent 

together. My other band that I 

was in at the time, Picking at 

the Remnants, saw that I was 

needing to have an output for 

this music I was making and 

to try and get me to the front 

rather than being behind the 

drums with the other band. I 

was drumming and doing a bit 

of backing vocals and stuff, but 

my thing was to get in front and 

do some vocals and actually 

write the songs. So that’s how 

that came about. We’ve got our 

current line up, which is four of 

us, me, my partner Josh Fairless 

(guitar), my good mate Ethan 

Bryant (keys) and my good

school. The Rolleston singer is preparing to tour the South Island with her band Moonflower.

friend Damon Thurlow (bass) as 

well. A big part of it is by parents, 

they’ve helped fund the whole 

thing, without them we couldn’t 

have done it. They’re our biggest 

supporters. 

How did the band name come 

about? 

I’ve just always liked that 

name. I guess it came about 

when I had a hippy van a few 

years ago when I was with Picking 

at the Remnants. It ended 

up being called The Moonflower 

Van and I liked that name. 

Is it harder to get into the 

music industry in Selwyn? 

I think so. I feel like people 

are really sporty and I don’t feel 

like its musical. But with events 

you’ve just got to promote it and 

if people know it’s happening, 

they get into it. 

You grew up in Rolleston, 

what do you make of the music 

industry in the district? 

Yeah, I went to Lincoln High 

School. It’s not massive. There’s a 

lot of bands here doing a lot but 

not in the Selwyn District. 

What is your role in 

Moonflower? 

I ended up behind the drums 

again, even though the goal was 

to get me out in front. It’s just 

sort of how its ended up. It seems 

to be a point of difference being a 

girl drummer and singer. 

Normally drummers aren’t 

vocalists are they? 

No and it’s a hard job. I’ve been 

drumming for a long time and it 

sort of comes naturally and the 

vocals are the part that I focus on 

the most when I’m performing. 

When did Moonflower start 

as a band? 

I’d say about two years ago 

and it’s always been me and Josh 

with others. So we got Ethan end 

of last year just before we hit the 

studio to record as well. Because 

before I was doing keyboard as 

well. And I was self taught on 

keyboards so I thought getting 

someone that’s properly trained 

and knows his stuff for the 

studio was the way to go and he 

ended up joining. 

How did you go from 

performing every now and then 

into launching an album? 

Pretty much once I had a 

group of songs – I think I had 

about six or seven that I really 

wanted to record. And we had 

done a few demos in the garage 

and it just wasn’t cutting it.



an album, tour and a full time career 

I wanted something really good 

that I could release to online to 

get some more exposure and 

have a good product to show 

people. Then I was like, we 

need to contact someone who’s 

going to be able to do this for 

us. We managed to find a really 

good studio, with a great sound 

engineer in Lyttelton called The 

Sitting Room. Which is quite 

a big name and owned by Ben 

Edwards, he’s won producer 

of the year and the guy that 

recorded it, Josh Petrie, was 

taught by Ben Edwards. 

What genre is your album? 

I’d probably say retro rock with 

soul and its got like a dark twist. 

I get compared to – not so much 

the music style – but my voice, 

I’ve been compared to Adele and 

Amy Winehouse. It’s funny because 

I don’t. It’s very soulful and 

very belty. I love all the old rock 

chicks like Janis Joplin. That real 

good soulful stuff that I think 

we’re missing a lot today. I just 

feel like I want to hear a lot more 

soul in people’s voices and that’s 

why I want to do it. 

When did you decide to be 

full-time into music? 

Yeah for me it is. I’m doing all 

the admin and all the management 

and all that sort of stuff 

and writing. It is a really big job 

behind the scenes. 

How long did it take for you 

guys to create the album? 

We booked eight days in 

the studio. It was mostly preproduction 

stuff – just being 

prepared and knowing exactly 

what we we’re doing so that 

we don’t waste time because 

time is money. So, we just had 

to be really into it. Originally 

we hoped to record six to eight 

tracks like an EP in eight days. I 

wasn’t happy for it to be just an 

EP, I wanted it to be an album 

so I kind of looked at my other 

songs and we ended up getting 

10 tracks done in those eight 

days. That’s because of the 

professionalism of our sound 

engineer, its because we were 

prepared and it was a really good 

environment and we just got 

it done. I still don’t know how 

we did. But now we’ve got 10 

tracks and a full album. It was 

intense. We were travelling from 

Rolleston to Lyttelton everyday. 

Sometimes it was 10-12 hours, 

MULTI 

TALENTED: 

Nicole Schaap 

says not many

drummer who is

PHOTO: PETER 

WALKER 

but we managed. 

How big is the tour? 

Two of the guys have a fulltime 

job and another has a parttime 

job. They’re not as flexible 

as me. We’re looking at doing the 

South Island. And we’re going to 

be doing a thing called the Leading 

Ladies’ Series. It sets up three 

female led bands and takes them 

around three or four towns in the 

South Island. So it’s a really cool 

thing to be part of. That will be in 

August, September. We’re looking 

at playing in Wellington. 

Where would you like to be in 

five years time? 

I’d love to be recognised for 

my songwriting and just be more 

well-known. I think we’ve got 

something different to offer and 

some really good catchy songs. 

I think our audience would be 

a little bit older so that’s why we 

struggle a bit with the younger 

crowd. They don’t really get us as 

much because we’re more retro 

but I don’t know, I hope they see 

something in it and we get more 

exposure. I’d love to be doing 

bigger shows, bigger festivals and 

people wanting to book us. 

How did you get into music? 

In the last year of primary, I 

saw a flyer come around about 

drum lessons and for some 

reason I felt like I needed to do it. 

I kept at it for a good amount of 

time and got my own drums for 

my 13th birthday. Because you 

have to prove it to mum and dad 

before they buy you a huge drum 

kit. I was 14 or 15 when I picked 

up a keyboard from a garage 

sale and started teaching myself 

chords, writing songs and tried to 

get bands together.

Pupils get 

active on 

the way to 

school 

MORE THAN 4000 young 

people from 10 schools across 

the district will be getting active 

on their way to school for the 

second annual Active Autumn. 

The district council’s road 

safety team is running the 

campaign during term 2 to 

encourage children to walk, 

skate, bike or scooter to get to 

and from school. 

Pupils taking part get a card 

stamped each time they walk or 

wheel to or from school. 

A colouring competition is 

also being held, with children 

challenged to develop their own 

road safety message. 

School road safety coordinator 

Stephanie Hautler said there are 

physical and mental benefits for 

children from active transport 

including better road safety 

awareness, independence, 

friendships and physical fitness. 

“Skipping the car ride also 

means less noise, less congestion, 

less visual pollution and cleaner 

air. Burning less fuel saves 

money too,” Ms Hautler said.

PLOUGHERS FROM across 

the district are gearing up 

to compete in the national 

competition. 

The biennial New Zealand 

Ploughing Championships will 

take place this weekend, with 40 

competitors taking part. 

It will be held 

at Wilkinson 

Farm in Chertsey 

on Saturday and 

Sunday, with the 

winner chosen by 

a panel of judges 

qualifying for the 

World Ploughing 

Championships 

in Russia next 

year. 

Four competitors are from 

the district – farmers Jeff 

Cridge, Simon Reed (both 

of Kirwee), retired Lincoln 

farmer John Stalker and West 

Melton construction worker Joe 

Marychurch. 

Mr Reed is taking part in his 

fourth nationals after winning 

a regional event in Swanannoa, 

North Canterbury, last year. 

“I’ve only been in it for a few 

years and you get better and 

better. You learn where your 

shortfalls are,” he said. 

The event will feature 

conventional, reversible, vintage 

and horse ploughing. 

Mr Reed is hoping to finish in 

the top three this year, after 

mid-table performances in the 

past. Ploughing is something his 

family has been involved in, he 

said. 

“My ancestors were heavily 

involved in match ploughing. 

We were introduced into it at a 

young age, not at New Zealand 

levels but at local levels,” Mr 

Reed said. 

“Then I just decided it was a 

sport I’d be interested in pursuing.” 

It helps as ploughing is part 

of everyday life at Mr Reed’s 

crop farm, but match ploughing 

involves careful understanding. 

“Understanding the soil type is 

the biggest key and knowing how

the soil type is going to behave,” 

Mr Reed said. 

The event is being hosted by 

the Rakaia Ploughing Match Association. 

Association president John 

Davison said match ploughing 

as a sport dates back to the 19th 

century. 

“When it started there were 

only horses ploughing and the 

last of them [horses] ploughed 

competitively in the late 1940s or 

early 1950s,” Mr Davison said. 

“Then it was tractors until a 

few years ago when because of 

the popularity of Clydesdales it’s 

gone full circle.” 

Association board member 

John Hall said the competition 

is split into sections over the two 

days. 

“The first day is stubble 

[ploughing]. It’s going to be 

barley stubble this time and they 

are judged various aspects like 

straightness, neatness, weed 

control and the soil available and 

more,” he said. 

“On the second day they are 

ploughing a grass paddock. If 

there’s any fault they’ll show up.”

Ploughing Championships 

will be held on Saturday and 

Sunday at Wilkinson Farm, 

on Wilkinsons Rd, Chertsey.

that of others.

22-years- old and have been in 

recovery from anorexia nervosa, 

major depressive disorder and 

anxiety disorders for more than 

seven years. When I was diagnosed, 

there was little talk about 

mental illness, a taboo topic 

with stereotype. 

I thought there was something 

wrong with me, I was alone and 

there was no hope for me. 

I don’t wish for anyone to have

BACKYARD CRITTERS 

All about aphids 

Mike Bowie is an ecologist who specialises in 

entomology (insects and other invertebrates). 

Each week he introduces a new species found 

in his backyard at Lincoln. His column aims 

to raise public awareness of biodiversity, the 

variety of living things around us. Check out 

the full list of invertebrates found at 

http://naturewatch.org.nz/projects/backyardbiodiversity-bugs-in-lincoln 

APHIDS ARE a very common 

sight on roses, particularly in the 

late spring. 

Although there are at least four 

species that can feed on roses, 

the most common species by far 

is the rose aphid (Macrosiphon 

rosae). 

This species is 2-4mm long, 

green with a red tinge and has no 

distinctive markings. 

Aphids can be seen from spring 

through to winter and during 

that time they can produce many 

generations. 

In optimal conditions, a generation 

can take five to 10 days. 

Most aphids are born pregnant 

and can therefore build up large 

populations quickly. 

Aphid mouthparts pierce and 

suck fluid from roses and in large 

populations can reduce plant 

health. Aphids also excrete honeydew 

which drips onto vegetation 

below, creating a sticky mess 

that can attract exotic wasps and 

other insects that feed on the sugary 

residue. Sooty mould can also 

attack the honeydew, turning it 

black over time. 

Predators include birds such 

as silvereye and goldfinch, and 

insects such as ladybirds, hoverfly 

larvae and lacewings.

Tight start to first 

HIGH STAKES: Lincoln’s Janie Watkins gets plenty of air in an 

attempt to block the shot of Greenpark B’s Brooke Coad. 

PHOTOS: KAREN CASEY 

• By Jacob Page 

THE FIRST week of Selwyn’s 

premier netball competition 

proved what many already 

suspected – there will be no easy 

games this season. 

Defending champions 

Greenpark A went behind early 

but came back to beat Prebbleton 

63-31, while 2017 champions 

Lincoln A were beaten by 

Greenpark B 52-43. 

Broadfield A outlasted a plucky 

Southbridge team 57-54. 

Greenpark B produced a strong 

performance to take down a 

revamped, youthful Lincoln A 

side. Greenpark B coach Mechelle 

Harrison was thrilled with how 

her team’s combinations came 

together. 

“Everyone gelled really well – 

when we needed big plays we got 

them, and the changes we made 

seemed to make an impact at the 

right time.” 

Harrison said she was happy 

with the number of turnovers her 

defenders created, but admitted 

some of their attacking options 

and feeding into the circle needs 

to be improved. 

She praised shooter Anna 

MacDonald for leading their 

attack and dealing with the 

Lincoln A defenders’ extra height. 

Lincoln A coach Dawn Dalley 

was happy with the team’s 

performance except for their

third quarter when Greenpark B 

got away. 

“Being down only one goal at 

halftime, I was really happy, but 

the third quarter we dropped our 

intensity and while we pulled 

it back in the final quarter, the 

game was gone by that point,” 

Dalley said. 

“We had patches where we 

would have good play and then 

patches where we would hesitate 

and we were just turning over too 

much ball.” 

Southbridge pushed last year’s 

beaten finalists Broadfield A all 

the way. While Broadfield A led 

the entire game, they were never 

able to get a comfortable margin 

on the determined Southbridge 

team. Southbridge coach Sarah 

Ormandy said there were plenty 

of positives to take away. 

“I think our shooting was 

pretty good and our feeds into 

the circle were short, which kept 

their defenders out of the game as 

much as we could,” she said.

BATTLE: Hannah 

Wilson beats Jessica 

McEwen in an aerial 

duel. 

“I think the girls were initially 

surprised they were as close as 

they were but we kept doing our 

thing and kept it close to the 

end.” 

Ormandy praised the work of 

goal attack Fiona Sutherland, not 

only for her accurate shooting, 

but for her high work-rate outside 

the circle. She also did well to 

support her young shooting 

partner Emily Skilling. 

Greenpark A trailed newlypromoted 

Prebbleton early in 

their match before pulling away 

to win by 32 goals. 

Greenpark A player/coach 

Zaylie Sullivan said their new 

combinations and general rusty 

play caused them to start slow. 

But she also heaped praise 

on Prebbleton’s physicality and 

fitness and said it is an area her 

team will have to improve on in 

the coming weeks. 

“I think (Prebbleton) will beat 

some teams,” she said. 

“They’re fit and fast and 

caught us off-guard with their 

physicality.”

Selwyn Times 

Family water 

safety programme 

Having fun while staying safe in the water is the driver behind a new family programme at 

Selwyn Aquatic Centre. 

Two Family Water Safety Programmes will be run at Selwyn Aquatic Centre on Sunday 19 and 

Sunday 26 May. 

It is the first time the Council has run a family-focused water safety programme, Swim School 

supervisor Sammy Lawson says. 

The Council has been working with Coast Guard NZ for a year providing water safety courses, 

which have been run for children and school groups, but the family programme is more in-depth, 

she says. 

Families will tackle challenges together, both in and out of the pool, with practical tips covering 

general water safety along with safety on rivers and in the ocean, she says. It’s all designed to get 

families having fun together while learning vital skills. 

“It’s created to be fun. We teach boat safety—falling in and out and flipping a boat—towing 

somebody who needs rescuing, throwing ropes, identifying rips, river crossing, hypothermia, 

help huddles.” 

For a country surrounded by water, New Zealanders have a poor record when it comes to water 

safety and the course is also working to reach those most at risk of drowning or near drowning, 

Mrs Lawson says. Teaching adults alongside children also means parents are better equipped to 

keep their children safe, by being able to spot rips or other unsafe conditions and in setting and 

enforcing good habits. 

“The research in New Zealand shows it’s adults and particularly adult and teenage males that are 

putting themselves at risk, so we’re trying to target that, but it’s about keeping all of your family safe.” 

Completing the session will also see participants receive a NZ Coastguard Safe Boating qualification. 

The Family Water Safety Programme will run from 1–4.30pm and costs $25 per family of four, 

additional children are $5 each. Children must be over 5 years. Up to 12 families can take part in 

each session. Bookings essential by emailing swimschool@selwyn.govt.nz. 

ON THE 

ROADS 

On the roads this week 

Repairs will be carried out on Old West Coast Road, Waimakariri Gorge Road and 

Selwyn Road until Friday 10 May. Traffic management will be in place during this time. 

Resealing work will be carried out on Marshs Road until Friday 10 May. Traffic 

management will be in place during this time. 

Road works are continuing on Goulds Road between Maltby Drive and East 

Maddisons Road until Friday 17 May. Detours and traffic management will be in place during this time. 

Footpath construction will be continuing on Edward Street from Millstream Drive to Southfield Drive, 

Tod Place and North Belt from James Street to Kildare Terrace until Friday 10 May. 

Sealing has been completed for the footpath through Mahoe Reserve in Lincoln, a popular track linking 

Lincoln Primary and High schools with the adjoining subdivisions. Storm water improvement and kerb 

and channel work has been completed on Tosswill Road. Work will continue this week preparing the 

road pavement, footpaths and residential entranceways. Sealing work on Robinsons Road is due to 

begin this week depending on the weather. 

The newly sealed track in Mahoe Reserve. 

Rolleston town centre upgrade – 

pedestrian experience 

Creating a pedestrian-friendly environment in Rolleston is part of the 

vision for the town centre upgrade. 

The design and layout of the proposed Rolleston town centre 

roading and public spaces is now available to view, along with the 

proposed features of the pedestrian walkways. 

The design of the carriageway and sidewalk is focused on making 

a stroll through the town centre a pleasant experience. This means 

children, the elderly and other pedestrians will be safe to cross the 

road and travel throughout the town centre. 

It’s proposed that the pavement will have an interesting design, 

with street furniture to be placed at regular intervals. Exotic and 

native trees are also planned to be planted in the main street. Where 

possible, significantly wider spaces have been proposed to allow a 

number of people to gather and enjoy the streetscape. 

Modern lighting will also ensure the light level is safe for cars and 

people during the day and night. 

Some proposed key features include: 

· 4000 plants and 185 trees across the town centre 

· five or more seats along the Tennyson Street high street 

· a community garden alongside the promenade with edible plants 

· modern street lighting to enhance light levels 

· water fountains and street furniture 

· rubbish bins across the development that will be regularly serviced.

Plant out day at Kirwee 

Recreation Reserve 

The Kirwee community will be bringing a new touch of green to the 

Kirwee Recreation Reserve this week. 

Native plants will be planted around the perimeter of the reserve in two 

community planting days on Friday 10 and Saturday 11 May. 

The aim is to form a “green dot” in Kirwee, establishing ecosystems 

and native bird life on the reserve, reserve management committee 

chair Raewyn Feast says. 

The first of the plant out days on Friday will see pupils of the 

Kirwee Model School joining members of the community and will 

include an educational session on native planting and ecosystems, 

Mrs Feast says. 

“We have a large number of plants to get into the ground and are 

very happy for members of the community to turn up on either day 

starting at 9.30am on Tramway Road. This is an exciting opportunity 

for the community to come together and get involved with what we 

hope will be a lasting legacy at the Kirwee Recreation Reserve.” 

The plant out days are the start of further planting at the reserve 

and the first stages of the concept plan for developing the reserve 

extension, she says. Te Ara Kakariki Greenway Canterbury Trust has 

given support and advice on a planting plan. 

The concept plan is being developed by the reserve management 

committee and the Kirwee township committee with support from 

council staff.

Change is coming for kerbside recycling collection in Selwyn, with plastic bags given the bin. 

From Monday 1 July plastic shopping bags will need to go in the red bin – rather than the yellow 

kerbside recycling bin. 

Solid Waste Manager Andrew Boyd says the decision is a result of the falling number of bags, following 

the decision by major supermarkets and the government to phase them out. 

The number of plastic bags going into bins in Selwyn has been falling since the start of the year, Mr 

Boyd says, matching the change around the country. 

Plastics that are marked as compostable or biodegradable also need to be put into the red bin or 

composted at home. 

To find out more about what you can put in your green, yellow and red wheelie bin, visit our website 

selwyn.govt.nz/rubbish. 

BOOST Skate a hit with young riders 

The first BOOST event of the year saw about 80 young people bring out their wheels or try out new 

ones at Rolleston Skate Park and Reserve. 

Youth Council Chairperson Katelyn Twiss says the event on 26 April was an awesome way to start the 

BOOST events for the year, which will be held every school holidays. There was plenty for everyone, 

she says, with a skate competition run by cheapskates, giant games and fun provided by council staff 

and Pedalmania’s collection of cool and unusual recycled bikes. 

“Everyone regardless of their ability had the opportunity to get on a skateboard or a bike and give it a go. 

It was inspiring to see people of all ages trying their best and learning new skills. As a youth council, we 

enjoyed giving out sports prizes such as vouchers and a basketball to people we believed were trying 

their hardest and also helping others. We also gave our main prize of the Bluetooth headphones to Joseph 

Hill because he was encouraging his younger brother and having a great time with his friends.” 

The event also featured a fundraising sausage sizzle, which raised $126. This money will be split and 

donated to the Victim Support Givealittle page set up for the Christchurch mosque attack victims and 

the MATW (Muslims Around the World) Project.

Poor discipline hurts Lincoln Combined 


LINCOLN Combined will 

have to stop being their own 

worst enemy if they want to 

beat Shirley Boys’ High School 

on Saturday. 

Lincoln lost their opening 

UC Championship fixture 

15-0 to last year’s semi-finalists 

Rangiora High School at the 

weekend. The loss at home 

can be attributed to their 

two yellow cards, general illdiscipline 

and an inability to 

hold onto the ball, said coach 

Tom Hooper. 

He said while his team’s 

defence was exceptional, they 

have plenty to work on. 

“Discipline was an issue. We 

got whistled at the breakdown 

a lot, especially in the first half 

and had two yellow cards in 

the game, which hurt us.” 

“We didn’t retain the ball 

well enough. There were some 

pluses – our defence was 

excellent and the effort was 

fantastic, but discipline and 

patience were the two things 

that were missing.” 

Hooper said his team 

does not have a “skill-based 

issue” and can work on their 

discipline and patience. 

“For the first game, 

you could almost feel the 

nervousness in the side. So 

now that we have that out of 

the way, we’ll get back into 

training and getting our 

processes right.” 

Hooper said he believes their

School at Lincoln on Saturday. 

SPORT 

attack will come right once the 

combination of impatience, 

nerves and ill-discipline are 

resolved. 

“We definitely dropped some 

pill that we wouldn’t usually 

spill.” 

Hooper said their set pieces 

went “okay but they were 

messy most of the time.” 

“To beat Shirley this week, 

we will need to be better with 

our execution and not rush 

things,” he said. “We have to 

slow down and get into our 

pattern, and if we play the way 

we can, then we’ll be just fine.”

Don’t put up with back pain 

Helping people with back pain and 

other spinal issues is behind Southern 

Chiropractic owner Andre Grob’s 

career choice. 

Andre has 18 years of experience 

treating people with a range of 

back problems and has a deep 

understanding of the value and 

benefits that a professional 

chiropractor can 

offer clients who 

are suffering from 

back pain. 

A high percentage 

of the patients 

Andre treats 

at Southern 

Chiropractic in 

Halswell suffer 

from lower back 

and neck pain, 

followed closely 

by mid back pain. 

Some pain such 

as headaches or shoulder pain can 

be referred from the spine and it is all 

about finding and treating the source 

of the pain, says Andre. 

He offers hands-on manipulation of 

the spine but also soft tissue massage 

which some patients prefer. He also 

uses laser treatment to assist with the 

traditional approach and an activator 

instrument that 

can be used for 

more precise 

adjustment of the 

spine. 

Chiropractic 

treatment not only 

relieves pain but, 

when patients are 

seen regularly, it 

can also help their 

overall wellness 

and health. 

“When clients first 

come to the clinic 

I find out about what the problems is. 

The aim is to treat the pain and make 

them more comfortable.” Once the 

patient’s better, he says it is then up to 

them to decide if they want to continue 

with further and ongoing treatment 

that suits their individual needs. 

Chiropractic treatments are listed 

overseas as among the top most 

beneficial natural therapies, providing 

a holistic approach to treating back 

pain, says Andre. 

“It’s all about what’s best for the 

individual client and giving them the 

time and care that they need. No 

matter what your age I can help with 

your back pain.” 

So if you are experiencing back pain, 

make an appointment with Andre at 

Southern Chiropractic. 

Southern Chiropractic has recently introduced on-line bookings through the website www.southernchiropractic.co.nz or you can phone Andre on 03 322 1432. 

They are based at 3 Kennedys Bush Road with car parking outside the door.

Final push for country rugby playoffs 


THE MAKE-UP of the 

Combined Country rugby 

playoffs is still far from certain 

with just one round to go on 

Saturday. 

Only Glenmark-Cheviot are 

guaranteed a playoff spot after 

their last-gasp 28-27 win over 

Springston. 

Under the new format, the top 

two teams from each of the three 

pools will qualify along with the 

two remaining ‘wild card’ teams 

which have the most overall 

competition points. 

In pool A, both Southern and 

Darfield did what they could, 

both picking up bonus point wins. 

Southern dismantled Hornby 

62-17, while Darfield accounted 

for Ashley 35-8. 

Both teams are on 27 points, 

with defending champions 

Waihora in third on 23. 

Waihora got the bonus point 

win they desperately needed with 

a 42-7 victory over Hampstead. 

Waihora’s match with Darfield 

on Saturday will shape the pool A 

playoff picture. 

Burnham-Dunsandel-Irwell 

snuck past Kaiapoi 22-20 to keep 

their playoff hopes alive. They will 

likely need a bonus point win over 

Ashley and results to go their way 

over the weekend to make it. 

In pool B, a late Brook Retallick 

Jim Doyle reports on 

Lincoln University’s 

match against Sumner on 

Saturday 

IT’S GETTING to be a bit of 

a habit watching opposing 

sides celebrate wildly after 

playing 80min against Lincoln 

University. 

Two tries in the last 10min by 

speedy Sumner centre Alistair 

Crossdale against the run of 

SPORT 

penalty got Glenmark-Cheviot 

past Springston in a compelling 

game. They are on 27 competition 

points, with Springston three 

points further back. 

A win over West Melton will 

guarantee Springston a playoff 

berth, but they are still in a strong 

position to qualify. 

Southbridge have an outside 

chance of making it out of pool B. 

They beat Rolleston 57-15 and will 

now need a big win over Rakaia at 

home to have any chance. 

In pool C, four teams have a 

mathematical chance of making 

the playoffs. 

Lincoln and Prebbleton are on 

26 and 23 competition points 

respectively, but both could slide 

down the ladder if Saracens (21) 

and Celtic (19) can pick up wins. 

Prebbleton will host Oxford, 

while Lincoln will host Celtic, 

so both teams will have the 

advantage of a home ground and 

crowd to secure their spot. 

Saracens will need a bonus 

point win over Hurunui, which is 

a possibility. 

Results 

•Pool A: Waihora 42, 

play meant the Rams slumped 

to their second loss in a row, as 

lowly Sumner snatched the metro 

rugby premier game 21-19. 

Crossdale’s first try came 

directly from an intercept as 

Lincoln Uni’s backs probed into 

Sumner territory and tried the 

wide pass. 

His second came after 

impressive No 8 Matthew Taula 

Fili snapped up another loose 

pass from the Rams and made 

a run of nearly 50m. Crossdale 

Hampstead 7; Darfield 

35, Ashley 8; Southern 62,

•Pool B: Glenmark-

Southbridge 57, Rolleston 15; 

Ohoka 24, Rakaia 15. 

•Pool B and C crossover: 

Saracens 29, Methven 22. 

•Pool C: Prebbleton 39,

•Pool B: Southbridge v 

Rakaia, Glenmark-Cheviot 

v Rolleston, West Melton v 

Springston, Methven v Ohoka. 

•Pool C: Saracens v 

Hurunui, Prebbleton v Oxford, 

Lincoln v Celtic. 

Lincoln Uni go down after two late Sumner tries 

finished off the movement 

on the other side of the park. 

Effervescent fullback Eliji Kaneda 

again converted from wide out. 

At least the Rams gained a 

bonus point to go with the two 

they garnered after losing to 

Marist Albion the previous week. 

But they have slipped to third on 

the board behind Christchurch 

and Linwood. 

Lincoln Uni’s troubles 

throughout can be traced back 

to the set pieces. They struggled

with their lineout play and also 

had problems in the scrum. 

Fresh props Ben Crawford and 

Dom Devine helped the Rams get 

their own back in the scrum at 

times over the last quarter. 

It was a bit cruel to be undone 

by two intercepts, but that’s life. 

Lincoln Uni played Ere Enari 

at halfback for the second half, 

but he couldn’t quite provide the 

extra spark they needed. 

Nor could Caleb Makene, who 

had done so brilliantly at the 

death the previous week. 

Lincoln Uni’s best player 

was No 6 John Borland, who 

often ranged wide to bring his 

full-steam-ahead approach to 

bear.

Time to step down 

for sports trust boss 


MIKE LAY believes the timing is right for 

him to step down as Selwyn Sports Trust 

chairman. 

Mr Lay has been in the role since just 

after the 2011 earthquake and said it was 

time for him to step back and let fresh 

blood with new ideas step up. 

“It’s always positive to bring in fresh 

blood with new ideas that can offer fresh 

motivation to the trust,” he said. 

“The trust is in a very good position so 

now is as good of a time as any.” 

Mr Lay grew up on a farm in Irwell and 

has been a life-long contributor to both 

rugby and cricket in the region. He is also 

Canterbury Rugby Football Union vicechairman. 

When he was first approached to be 

part of the trust in 2011, he said it fitted 

perfectly with his philosophy. 

“We had a running group in Leeston 

that was holding an event and my wife, 

Pauline, and I helped with that and we 

said at the end of it that we wanted to put a 

structure in place so it could happen again 

and things went from there,” he said. 

“I’m just bloody passionate about sport 

and absolutely passionate about seeing 

people involved and participating in 

sport,” he said. 

“I wanted to ensure we were getting 

structures within Selwyn, which was 

a growing district at the time postearthquake, 

and make sure we could 

allow for people to participate in sport in 

Selwyn, particularly in the youth space.” 

Mr Lay has since become a keen runner 

and has completed three marathons. 

“Largely that was a result of the drive of 

some of the people involved in the trust. 

When you’ve run one, unfortunately you 

think you can run two, and you become 

competitive with yourself, but it’s more the 

feeling of accomplishment when you cross 

that finish line.” 

He takes great satisfaction in what the 

SPORT 

trust has achieved during his involvement. 

“We started on a shoe-string and now 

we have six people employed, all delivering 

sport in Selwyn,” he said. 

“We started on a voluntary basis and 

then (chief executive Mike Wilson) started 

one day a week and we eventually got 

him to five days and now he has a team 

of people underneath him who share our 

passion for sport and getting kids active in 

sport.” 

Mr Lay said his wife has been a key 

component in the trust’s success. 

“She’s been the secretary of the trust and 

been one of our key volunteers at countless 

events over the years and she’s done a lot of 

administration work in the background 

and has been absolutely invaluable.” 

Mr Lay said one of his fondest moments 

was witnessing the growth of the Koru 

Games. 

“It was the third or fourth Koru Games 

and I’d just come out of a tough meeting 

and I went down to Lincoln and watched 

1000 kids compete in sport (which) was 

an absolute moment of pride.” 

He said he will still be a regular at 

the trust’s events and he will continue 

running to keep his new hip fully 

functional. 

Mr Wilson said the work put in by 

Mr and Mrs Lay has been immensely 

important over the years. 

He said a new chairperson should be 

confirmed in the next couple of weeks. 

Mr Lay said he wants the trust to 

continue to grow and build relationships 

within the Selwyn community and for 

the district to support the trust in its 

endeavours. 

TEAM: Pauline and Mike Lay at the New York Marathon. Their love of running 

has grown over the time they have been involved in the Selwyn Sports Trust.

dISCOVER 

Well-known pianist to 

present fundraising recital 

This Saturday afternoon, May 11 Nut 

Point Centre in West Melton is presenting 

a piano recital fundraiser featuring wellknown 

pianist and regular performer at 

the centre, Veronica van der Knaap. 

The programme will include works by 

Brahms, Schumann, Chopin and other 

composers, with the funds being donated 

to the Canterbury Charity Hospital. 

Veronica has been supporting the 

Canterbury Charity Hospital for the last 

few years, donating her concert fees to the 

hospital on a regular basis. 

“Over the years of her activity here, the 

Nut Point Centre was, and still is, happy 

to support Veronica’s wishes to support 

the hospital,” says Nut Point Centre’s John 

Allan. 

“This will be the second fully donated 

concert to the hospital and the 2020 

fundraiser for the hospital has already 

been incorporated into the Nut Point’s 

Annual Programme of 2020.” 

Nut Point Centre has a long history of 

holding charity events and other activities 

relating to charity, which have taken 

place for over 13 years. There are three 

charity events planned in the 2020 annual 

programme predominantly donating to 

animal welfare or animals supporting 

people such as the Blind Foundation’s 

Guide Dogs programme, John says. 

Veronica Van der Knaap 

Born in the Netherlands in 1947, 

Veronica enrolled at the Amsterdam 

Conservatorium at age 18 to pursue a 

six-year study with Hans Dercksen. She 

graduated in 1971, and a month later 

arrived in New Zealand with her husband. 

A long teaching career followed, while 

at the same time she performed both as a 

soloist and accompanist. 

Veronica retired from teaching when she 

turned 65, but has continued performing 

and learning many new works, and says 

she hopes to be able to do so for a long 

time yet.

Small Mazda SUV 

has further appeal 

WHEN MAZDA launched 

its CX-3 crossover/sport 

utility vehicle in New 

Zealand four years ago, 

I was so smitten with it I 

described it as being one 

of the company’s finest 

vehicles, it was certainly 

one of my best drives for 

2015. 

Four years down the 

track, not a lot has changed, 

there’s now an upgraded 

CX-3 and it still exudes the 

feel and vigour that made 

the first generation model so 

memorable, only more so. 

Like before, the CX-3 

lands in six grades with 

four-wheel-drive options 

along the way. All share the 

same naturally aspirated 

2-litre engine, but there is 

now the option of two high 

grade models Limited and 

Takami, the latter is a range 

of high grade models that 

are filtering all through 

the Mazda line-up, and I 

can report from previous 

experience with Takami 

grade it is something that 

gives those models special 

appeal. 

All that aside, the CX-3 

this evaluation focuses on is 

a mid-spec front-drive GSX 

and it lists at $36,695. For 

the record, the entry-level 

GLX sits at $31,995, while 

the Takami tops the range 

at $41,695. 

Even in GSX form the 

CX-3 wants for little, it 

has all of the ingredients 

that make you feel 

comfortable, and there is 

enough gadgetry to keep 

the technophile happy. 

Bear in mind that in this 

specification it also gets 

an i-Activesense safety 

upgrade which includes 

blind spot monitoring, 

traffic sign recognition, 

smart city brake support 

reverse and radar cruise 

control. Mazda’s safety 

suite of technologies easily 

qualifies for a five-star 

Australasian New Car 

Assessment program 

rating. 

While I consider the 

CX-3 to be a true SUV, it 

is small and its size won’t 

appeal to everyone, it is a 

bit tight in the rear seating 

area but for me that’s never 

been an issue, the car feels 

so right to drive, and for a 

small family it will easily 

suffice as it makes good use 

of its compact proportions. 

There is also a purposeful 

amount of rear cargo space 

– according to Mazda – 

264-litres to 1174-litres. 

What I like most about 

the CX-3 is its normality. 

Everything is traditional, 

there are no tricks with the 

engine and the gearbox is a 

torque converter automatic. 

While it appears simple on 

the surface, you also have 

MAZDA CX-3: Two and four-wheel-drive options. 

to take into account that 

the driveline incorporates 

Mazda’s SkyActive 

technology which promotes 

economical fuel usage 

without compromise. 

This has been the 

direction Mazda has largely 

focused on as a car maker; 

it isn’t hugely into hybrids 

or electric vehicles, but 

it simply makes internal 

combustion engines work 

with amazing efficiency. 

• Price – Mazda CX-3 

GSX, $36,695 

• Dimensions – 

Length, 4275mm; 

width, 1765mm; 

height, 1535mm 

• Configuration 

– Four-cylinder, 

front-wheel-drive, 

1998cc, 110kW, 

195Nm, six-speed 

automatic. 

• Performance – 

0-100km/h, 9sec 

• Fuel usage – 

6.3l/100km 

Motoring 

Ross Kiddie 

As a result, the CX-3 is 

rated with a 6.3-litre per 

100km (45mpg) combined 

cycle fuel usage figure and 

that is easily achievable. 

Without trying, the fuel 

usage reading on the 

evaluation car’s digital 

display was constantly 

listing around 7l/100km 

(40mpg). At 100km/h 

the engine is relaxed 

(2100rpm), sipping fuel at 

the rate of just 4.5l/100km 

(63mpg) instantaneously. 

If you think this economy 

comes at the expense of 

performance you need not 

be worried, Mazda claim 

power outputs of 110kW 

and 195Nm from the 

1998cc engine. 

The CX-3 is free-revving 

and spirited, it’s lively to 

drive, and because it isn’t 

carrying too much weight 

(1297kg) it feels agile and 

nimble, and will return a 

9sec standstill to 100km/h 

acceleration time. 

Along with the solid 

response from under the 

bonnet, the CX-3 is a hoot 

when corners arrive. It 

steers with beautiful feel 

and feedback, it can be 

driven enthusiastically 

such is its poise and 

composure, all of the 

time the suspension 

provides occupants with 

a comfortable, controlled 

ride as well as absorbing 

the road undulations 

without upsetting steering 

response, nor body 

balance. 

If you weigh up all of 

these ingredients, the CX-3 

is a lot more than meets the 

eye. It is built with all of the 

fun factor that is Mazda’s 

ideology, and that is why I 

rate it so highly as a driver’s 

car, it is so involving. 

It is also well appointed, 

and given this is the 

CX-3’s second makeover 

it wants for nothing inside. 

GSX buyers have the choice 

of a leatherette/cloth trim 

or leather for an extra 

$1600. 

Elsewhere there is 

keyless entry and ignition, 

satellite navigation, 

intuitive display screen 

readouts, sport drive mode 

and my favourite inclusion, 

the standard fitment of a 

CD player, which is great 

for us old dinosaurs who 

haven’t fully adapted to 

the new digital music 

technology. 

I’ve written many times 

in recent reviews about 

the quality of product that 

is coming out of Mazda 

factories, the upgraded 

CX-3 would be very much 

a preferable choice, and if I 

do get the chance to buy a 

new car to see me through 

my impending retirement, 

then something out of 

this Japanese stable will be 

right at the forefront of any 

decision. 

Gardening 

How to plant a fruit tree 

NOW IS a good time 

to get those fruit trees 

planted. 

Here are some tips: 

•Dig a hole that is slightly 

deeper than the root depth 

and which allows for 20cm 

clearance around the roots. 

•Mix some compost with 

the soil in the base of the 

hole, then place the tree 

and slow release fertiliser 

in the hole so that the graft 

is above soil level. 

•Create a small mound at 

the base of the hole and 

spread the roots out carefully. 

•Before back filling, position 

tree stakes. Partly back 

fill and firmly compact. 

•Continue back filling and 

compact once or twice 

more. 

•Water well. 

LANDSCAPING IS a 

wonderful pastime enjoyed 

by many. 

It provides a natural 

beauty and needs no 

ornaments or other 

attractive items to help 

achieve its magnificence. 

However, what it does 

needis a little TLC from 

you and great ideas to keep 

the landscape design ever 

•Stake securely to ensure 

root zone can’t move on 

windy days. 

Bare rooted trees bought 

must not be left for roots 

changing and up to date. 

Landscape design is an 

art that not only gives you 

the freedom to express 

yourself, but also makes 

your home more beautiful 

and inviting. 

There are many methods 

of landscape design to 

explore. You can trim 

your hedges or bushes in 

a decorative manner. For 

to dry. 

•Plunge in water prior 

to planting to ensure the 

roots are moist prior to 

planting.

Moana Maniapoto 

plays Darfield 

When Moana Maniapoto and her fellow 

musicians toured NZ in 2017, some of 

their fans loved them so much, they 

carried their own guitars and ukuleles to 

the show – and joined in. Now she is back 

on the road with ‘My Name is Moana’, a 

90-minute tribute to the ocean, including 

garage party classics, as well as those 

inspirational songs that have taken Moana 

and her musicians across 30 countries. 

Moana and her musicians will host their 

own little garage party on Tuesday, 14 

May, 7.00pm at Trinity Church, Darfield. 

The audience is invited to bring their 

own guitar or ukulele and join in! A 

delightful showcase of sublime singing 

and captivating storytelling awaits the 

audience, drawing them in to discover 

and share their relationship to the Ocean 

– and to each other. 

This year Independent Music NZ 

recognised Moana and the Moahunters’ 

TAHI (Southside 1993) as the 2019 

recipient of the Classic Record, an award 

acknowledging New Zealand’s history 

of inspiring music albums. You can find 

Moana’s music on Youtube, including 

songs with her bands, The Moahunters 

and The Tribe. 

Moana has played hundreds of stages 

in Istanbul, Moscow, Florence, Berlin, 

Warsaw, Toronto, Venice, Shanghai, 

Seoul, Vienna, and Taipei. She has taken 

her haka-funk-dub-fusion to the Sydney 

Opera House (Australia), as well as to 

the Montreux Jazz Festival (Switzerland), 

Sziget (Budapest), and Norway. Her 

band, The Tribe, performed in and 

around Glasgow in July 2014 as part of 

the “Boomerang Project” collaboration 

with Scottish and indigenous Australian 

musicians. 

Sponsored by Arts on Tour NZ and the 

Malvern Community Arts Council, ‘My 

Name Is Moana’ comes to Darfield on

Your guide to all things Real Estate 

in the Selwyn District 

Landscaping enhances 

new & existing homes 

Building in a housing subdivision 

invariably means the developer will 

require you to submit a landscaping 

plan along with your house design, to be 

approved before building commences. 

Just as important as considering 

the features for your home will be 

your outdoor setting. Indoor/outdoor 

requirements will influence your choice 

of house design and how it will be 

sited on the section for a sunny yard 

and best protection from prevailing 

winds like the easterly. Having a second 

courtyard area offering shelter from the 

north-west wind is also an advantage in 

Selwyn. 

A well thought out landscape plan 

will also incorporate off-street parking 

space for vehicles while ensuring your 

home is attractive from the street. You 

might want to factor in parking for a 

caravan, motorhome or extra vehicles as 

well as a turning circle for safe turning 

and exiting your property (a legal 

requirement for back sections). 

The developer will only want to see a 

landscape outline for the part of your 

property which will be on view from the 

street. 

When choosing the design for your 

home, address where you want hard 

surfaces (driveway, paths and patios), 

lawn, play areas and garden beds so it 

is suitably positioned on the section. 

Even if not all hard surface areas are 

completed at the end of the build, 

knowing where they will be located will 

be helpful. 

If your build is nearing completion, 

autumn is a good time to sow grass as 

the cooler morning and evening dew 

assists growth. As winter descends on 

us, ready lawn is a better option at least 

at the front of the section, which the 

developer will require to be completed 

before moving in. Your backyard could 

be left until spring (another good time 

for seeding a lawn) if you are happy to 

put up with the mud over winter. 

When selling an existing home, 

putting effort into landscaping your 

yard could add value by presenting a 

good first impression and attracting 

buyers. 

You need not rip out overgrown 

established plants. Selective culling and 

pruning can make a huge difference 

to the look of a garden. Avoid hacking 

everything down low. Instead take out 

sprawling branches and thin shoots, 

leaving a solid trunk; planting flowers 

like lobelia, primula, pansies and 

polyanthus underneath for impact. Add 

a layer of mulch and spray the lawn 

for weeds then follow up with lawn 

fertiliser to give a lush green look. 

The first thing people see is your 

home’s exterior – the cladding, colours 

and landscaping. Putting effort into 

these features has the potential to add 

value to new and existing properties. 

A garden need not be masses of work. 

Planning and choosing the right plants 

for the location and your lifestyle can 

create a relatively low maintenance 

outdoor setting while enhancing your 

home. 

Landscaping presents a good first impression, attracting buyers. 

Developers require a landscape plan for the street 

view of your home before building commences.
