signing off<br />

lake plan<br />

• By Devon Bolger<br />

MAYOR SAM Broughton has<br />

been blasted for not consulting<br />

district councillors before<br />

signing an agreement over the<br />

management of Lake Ellesmere.<br />

Mr Broughton faced heavy<br />

criticism at last week’s district<br />

council meeting over the Te<br />

Waihora Co-Governance<br />

agreement.<br />

It was revealed Mr Broughton<br />

had signed off the agreement<br />

with Environment Canterbury,<br />

Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu,<br />

Christchurch City Council and<br />

the Department of Conservation<br />

to share responsibility for<br />

Lake Ellesmere and the wider<br />

catchment.<br />

Mr Broughton signed it on<br />

behalf of the council but did not<br />

consult district councillors.<br />

Councillor Grant Miller said<br />

he couldn’t believe Mr Broughton<br />

would sign the agreement without<br />

showing them first.<br />

“I just cannot accept this, I<br />

will not accept this and I believe<br />

it’s core process at its worst. I<br />

think this is a wrong and abusive<br />

process,” Cr Miller said.<br />

WE REPORT today on two new sport and<br />

recreation areas on the way, a reflection<br />

again of the increasing population (see<br />

page 4).<br />

The Kirwee Recreation Reserve will<br />

be extended by 6.5ha, and at least eight<br />

new playing fields will go into a block of land on Birchs Rd,<br />

Prebbleton.<br />

The public will get their say on both. That’s fine and required<br />

but I wonder at times whether this simply holds up the end<br />

result.<br />

District council staff have the expertise to put children’s<br />

play equipment, fitness equipment, pathways, sports fields,<br />

barbecue areas, and trees and other plantings in the right<br />

place.<br />

The more sport and recreation grounds the better. The<br />

district council must be lauded for its decisions.<br />

THE AMOUNT of rubbish<br />

going to landfill in the district<br />

has jumped by almost 50 per<br />

cent in seven years.<br />

The increase has prompted the<br />

district council to adopt a new<br />

plan to deal with the amount of<br />

waste being produced.<br />

The total amount of rubbish<br />

going to<br />

landfill has<br />

jumped 49.1<br />

per cent from<br />

12,506 tonnes<br />

in 2012 to<br />

18,646 tonnes<br />

in 2018.<br />

Sam<br />

Broughton<br />

The Waste<br />

Management<br />

and Minimisation<br />

Plan is<br />

the district council’s strategy for<br />

the management of solid waste<br />

for the next six years.<br />

Some of the key actions within<br />

the plan are:<br />

•Establish a reuse shop and<br />

salvage yard. This will be at the<br />

Pines Resource Recovery Park.<br />

•Provide a structure and<br />

utilities for a farm waste and<br />

recycling processing area.<br />

•Investigate fortnightly kerbside<br />

collection as opposed to the<br />

current weekly collection.<br />

After adopting the new<br />

WMMP the district council also<br />

voted to adopt a new draft waste<br />

management and minimisation<br />

bylaw to be opened for public<br />

consultation.<br />

The bylaw sets out specific<br />

ways the new WMMP will be<br />

achieved.<br />

If approved the bylaw would<br />

see all kerbside collection<br />

take place at 6.30am instead<br />

of the current time of 7am on<br />

State Highway 1 and 7.30am<br />

everywhere else.<br />

The district council would also<br />

require individuals lodging resource<br />

or building consents for<br />

commercial or industrial purposes<br />

to submit a waste management<br />

plan for the construction<br />

and operational phases.<br />

Event organisers may also<br />

be required to submit a waste<br />

management plan for an event,<br />

depending on the size.<br />

Mayor Sam Broughton said<br />

as the population continues<br />

to grow so has the amount of<br />

waste.<br />

“This means we’re sending<br />

an increasing amount of waste<br />

to landfill and it’s the council’s<br />

$450k development plans for Kirwee Reserve<br />

The district’s rapidly<br />

increasing population<br />

is putting pressure<br />

on sports fields and<br />

recreational spaces.<br />

Devon Bolger and Angus<br />

Hilliard look at two<br />

projects under way to<br />

ease the problem<br />

THE KIRWEE Recreation<br />

Reserve is set to get a $450,000<br />

development.<br />

The Master<br />

Plan for the<br />

proposed development<br />

has<br />

been released for<br />

public consultation.<br />

Derek Hayes<br />

The project<br />

will see the<br />

existing reserve on Tramway Rd<br />

extended by 6.5ha.<br />

The additional reserve land<br />

will make it possible to realign<br />

the existing No 2 rugby field<br />

and provide a second dedicated<br />

cricket oval.<br />

Other works will include an<br />

open space area that can be<br />

used for off-leash dog exercise,<br />

informal areas for children’s play,<br />

a walkway surrounding the reserve,<br />

and new tree planting with<br />

FINAL PLANS for a new<br />

multi-million dollar reserve on<br />

the outskirts of Prebbleton will<br />

be ready within months.<br />

The multi-purpose sport and<br />

recreation park will be built on a<br />

22ha site on Birchs Rd, between<br />

Leadleys Rd and Hamptons Rd.<br />

Springs Ward councillor and<br />

Deputy Mayor Malcolm Lyall<br />

said there is room for eight playing<br />

fields, as well as a wealth of<br />

other features.<br />

“It’s a bit of a wilderness reserve<br />

in some places,” he said.<br />

“There may well be a mini<br />

lake to run your model boat.<br />

We’re looking at some parking,<br />

and a toilet block and changing<br />

rooms, to service the fields<br />

native and specimen trees.<br />

A key part of the proposal is a<br />

central community hub that will<br />

include playground facilities, a<br />

basketball half-court and other<br />

amenities such as public toilets,<br />

formed footpaths, shelter, picnic<br />

areas and seating.<br />

Additional car parking will<br />

be created along the southern<br />

reserve boundary to cater for activities<br />

taking place within new<br />

areas of the reserve.<br />

that are there. It may well have<br />

cycle tracks around the outside<br />

edge and at the back there is a<br />

wet area which I’m hoping will<br />

become a dog park.”<br />

The land was purchased by the<br />

district council in 2016 for $2.3 million,<br />

with a further $10.01 million<br />

being invested into the construction<br />

from Springs Ward reserve<br />

development contributions.<br />

An initial community consultation<br />

on the project was conducted<br />

last year, with local sports<br />

clubs, community groups, local<br />

committees and schools identifying<br />

wishes for more sports fields,<br />

a dog park, safe cycle areas and<br />

an adventure play area for older<br />

children and teenagers.<br />

A play area with a BMX and<br />

pump track is also included in<br />

the plans.<br />

The district council purchased<br />

the additional land in 2011 for<br />

$475,000. A further $450,000<br />

has been allocated this financial<br />

year for the main development<br />

works, including earthworks,<br />

turf establishment, irrigation,<br />

vehicle entrance ways, footpaths,<br />

tree planting and playground<br />

development.<br />

District council major projects<br />

manager John Reid told <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

<strong>Times</strong> the time frame for completion<br />

of the plans.<br />

“Council is now working<br />

on more detailed<br />

concepts and designs for<br />

the park, which will be<br />

released for the next stage<br />

of community consultation<br />

in the next two to<br />

three months.”<br />

The final stage of community<br />

consultation, if<br />

successful, will be followed<br />

by a district council vote<br />

to green light the project.<br />

Mr Reid hopes the reserve will<br />

have a uniquely rural appeal.<br />

“The park will have a distinct<br />

pupils helped<br />

plant a native<br />

border around<br />

the Kirwee<br />

Recreation<br />

Reserve as part<br />

of a planned<br />

development.​<br />

District council property and<br />

open space planner Derek Hayes<br />

said the proposed extension will<br />

provide much-needed space for<br />

recreation in Kirwee to meet the<br />

growing demand for sports fields<br />

and community space.<br />

“The plans are now well developed<br />

and we are looking for<br />

further community feedback to<br />

check that we’ve got things about<br />

right. We also want to get ideas<br />

on any details that people think<br />

rustic, rural feel to it, reflecting<br />

the heritage and history of the<br />

area, while giving residents a<br />

space they can be proud<br />

of,” he said.<br />

“Features are expected<br />

to include park and play<br />

spaces, shade, seating and<br />

picnic areas, an off-leash<br />

dog exercise area, pathways<br />

and bike tracks; including<br />

connection to the<br />

Little River Rail Trail.”<br />

Prebbleton Rugby Football<br />

Club, one of the clubs<br />

originally consulted, is presently<br />

based at Prebbleton Domain, and<br />

club president Jeromy Knowler<br />

doesn’t see them moving to the<br />

new fields.<br />

could be added,” he said.<br />

Kirwee Recreation Reserve<br />

management committee member<br />

Glenn Sparrow said the committee<br />

started pushing for the extension<br />

more than six years ago.<br />

“For us, actually seeing the<br />

plans be released is extremely<br />

cool. Getting to see people commenting<br />

and talking about it just<br />

makes it all worth it,” he said.<br />

The reserve committee formed<br />

a working group with the Kirwee<br />

Community committee two<br />

years ago to come up with plans<br />

for the development.<br />

Kirwee Model School students<br />

took part in a planting day a<br />

few weeks ago to install a native<br />

border around the reserve, Mr<br />

Sparrow said.<br />

Additional car parking will<br />

be created along the southern<br />

reserve boundary (next to the<br />

existing car parking) to cater<br />

for activities taking place within<br />

new areas of the reserve.<br />

A drop-in session is being held<br />

on <strong>August</strong> 24, from 9.30am at<br />

the Kirwee Reserve Pavilion.<br />

Councillors blast mayor<br />

•From page 1<br />

Councillors Deborah<br />

Hassan, Craig Watson and<br />

Murray Lemon agreed with<br />

Cr Miller and also had<br />

their disapproval recorded.<br />

The agreement was<br />

first signed by the district<br />

council in 2014.<br />

DOC entered<br />

into the cogovernance<br />

group<br />

and a revised<br />

agreement was<br />

signed by Mr<br />

Broughton in June.<br />

Mr Broughton<br />

told district<br />

councillors he<br />

agreed with their<br />

comments around<br />

secrecy and processes.<br />

“My view on signing it<br />

is there were a lot of things<br />

rolling over and the main<br />

thing we were concerned<br />

about was getting DOC<br />

included,” he said.<br />

“I’m sorry the process<br />

doesn’t meet our normal<br />

standards, but I’ll be<br />

pushing pretty hard for the<br />

whole of the co-governance<br />

group to be far more<br />

public-facing.”<br />

Sam<br />

Broughton<br />

Cr Craig Watson said<br />

he is concerned about the<br />

changes in the revised<br />

agreement<br />

“Essentially what it<br />

means is the district<br />

council loses a lot of ability<br />

to be a council because of<br />

shared consent<br />

processes, shared<br />

hearing processes,<br />

deliberating before<br />

hearings and so<br />

forth.”<br />

The agreement<br />

dictates that the<br />

co-governors adopt<br />

a shared policy on<br />

the appointment<br />

of hearings<br />

commissioners<br />

and the group is consulted<br />

before drafting begins<br />

on annual and long-term<br />

plans.<br />

The co-governers will<br />

also provide advice in<br />

advance of the district<br />

council considering plans<br />

for adoption<br />

“A mayor doesn’t have<br />

special authority over<br />

councillors and that’s the<br />

major concern that was<br />

raised,” Cr Watson said.<br />

The district council<br />

voted to let the agreement<br />

lie on the table until the<br />

next council meeting in<br />

September<br />

to give staff<br />

time to<br />

address the<br />

concerns.<br />

The<br />

district<br />

council<br />

will also<br />

host the<br />

next meeting<br />

of the<br />

co-governance<br />

group<br />

later this<br />

month.<br />

A<br />

spokesperson<br />

confirmed<br />

the district<br />

council<br />

will still<br />

Grant Miller<br />

Craig<br />

Watson<br />

go ahead with the meeting<br />

in spite of the conflict. Mr<br />

Broughton told district<br />

councillors he will be<br />

writing to the other cogoverners<br />

to make them<br />

aware of the discussions at<br />

the meeting.<br />

Students environmentally<br />

friendly business venture<br />

•From page 1<br />

The group is selling steel<br />

straws, designed to be sleek and<br />

trendy, as an alternative to singleuse<br />

plastic ones.<br />

“Our product will help reduce<br />

single-use straws and will help<br />

reduce plastic in the ocean and<br />

we feel great about that,” Hannah<br />

said.<br />

They also donate<br />

some of their<br />

profits to a charity<br />

dedicated to the<br />

environment.<br />

Said Eloise: “$2<br />

from each purchase<br />

gets donated to<br />

the charity Sea<br />

Cleaners. They go<br />

around and clean<br />

up oceans around<br />

New Zealand and<br />

we are hoping<br />

our customers get<br />

behind that and<br />

want to support it.”<br />

recently won the<br />

Canterbury regional<br />

marketing award for a video the<br />

students made promoting the<br />

product. It came with a $200<br />

prize.<br />

Said Melissa: “It’s really<br />

exciting, but also quite funny<br />

The money will help the<br />

business, Melissa said.<br />

The most exciting part of the<br />

journey so far was receiving the<br />

straws.<br />

Said Alli: “It was just so cool<br />

seeing what we’ve designed arrive<br />

here. We were all<br />

really proud.”<br />

They have sold<br />

more than 60<br />

straws so far and<br />

are happy with<br />

their progress, she<br />

said.<br />

The group will<br />

continue promoting<br />

and selling the<br />

straws.<br />

Said Melissa:<br />

“The business is<br />

supposed to wrap<br />

up in November<br />

but we’ve been<br />

talking about<br />

keeping it going<br />

even after that.<br />

“We’ve all really enjoyed<br />

about it, so it’s something we are<br />

thinking about.”<br />

VOLUNTEERS HAVE been<br />

installing tracking tunnels in<br />

Lincoln Wetland and Mahoe<br />

Reserve, in the hope they can<br />

confirm a presence of pests.<br />

This follows the discovery by<br />

Lincoln High School students of<br />

rats in Mahoe Reserve last year.<br />

Lincoln Envirotown Trust has<br />

received $2500 from the district<br />

council to launch the initiative.<br />

The money is being invested<br />

into the purchase of the tracking<br />

tunnels, tracking cards, chew<br />

cards, tracking ink and rodent<br />

lures, as well as 30 new DOC 200<br />

trap boxes.<br />

They are being built by Men’s<br />

Shed of Lincoln, which has<br />

previously built successful trap<br />

boxes for Waihora Ellesmere<br />

Trust and Lincoln Golf Club.<br />

LET chairman and project<br />

manager Dave Fitzjohn said it is<br />

important to monitor where the<br />

pests are so they know where to<br />

lay the trap boxes.<br />

Mr Fitzjohn hopes to see trap<br />

boxes installed in Lincoln Wetland<br />

soon.<br />

“In a week we’re going to do a<br />

big look at what’s out there, and<br />

if traps are required, by the end<br />

of the month I would imagine<br />

they would put the traps out<br />

there.”<br />

LET member Lindsay Barker,<br />

who is actively involved in the<br />

project, emphasised the importance<br />

of culling pests.<br />

“Mice, rats, hedgehogs and<br />

domestic cats can all be a risk to<br />

birdlife,” he said.<br />

“Hopefully, as people become<br />

more aware of the Predator Free<br />

become involved.”<br />

Plan to boost alpine<br />

trapping programme<br />

• By Devon Bolger<br />

THE ARTHUR’S Pass Wildlife<br />

Trust is gearing up for an<br />

increase in pest numbers due to<br />

a mega-mast this season.<br />

A mast season occurs when<br />

trees and plants produce high<br />

amounts of seed and<br />

fruits that attract predators.<br />

Arthur’s Pass Wildlife<br />

trustee Pete Neal said<br />

they have recently seen<br />

increased mice activity.<br />

“We’re more concerned<br />

about what comes after.<br />

Mice are like a prewarning<br />

and then the<br />

stoats and rats come and that’s<br />

what causes all the devastation<br />

to the wildlife,” he said.<br />

Mr Neal said the trust is<br />

now preparing for when the<br />

bigger predators show up to<br />

start a more extensive trapping<br />

programme.<br />

“It’s one of the major things<br />

we do out here because we have<br />

so many native species.”<br />

“We’re really hoping for<br />

another good amount of snow<br />

because the cold weather can<br />

kill them off,” he said.<br />

Department of Conservation<br />

ranger Sian Reynolds said they<br />

have been monitoring mice<br />

numbers in Arthur’s Pass and<br />

there has been an increase since<br />

autumn.<br />

“This year’s mast is the<br />

biggest for many years<br />

and the abundant seed<br />

is fuelling rodent breeding<br />

through the winter,<br />

which in turn will feed<br />

stoats and increase the<br />

number of stoat kits<br />

born this spring,” she<br />

said.<br />

“The trapping work by the<br />

Arthur’s Pass Wildlife Trust is<br />

hugely important to protect the<br />

populations of whio/blue duck<br />

and great spotted kiwi/roroa<br />

around Arthur’s Pass village.”<br />

Mrs Reynolds said DOC<br />

is planning an aerial 1080<br />

predator control operation in<br />

parts of Arthur’s Pass National<br />

Park later this year to knock<br />

down the expected rats and<br />

stoats.<br />

New space for toy library<br />

THE ROLLESTON Toy Library<br />

is one step closer thanks to a<br />

donation from a local business.<br />

Library publicity and<br />

promotions officer Michelle Sim<br />

said after more than a year of<br />

struggling to secure premises to<br />

operate out of, it has received a<br />

lifeline.<br />

“Chris and Ayyam (O’Brien)<br />

from Storage King have offered<br />

us one of their 6m x 3m storage<br />

units to use for free for two<br />

years,” she said.<br />

The library is also set to go<br />

online. “Members will be able<br />

to browse the toy collection and<br />

submit orders via a website. Toys<br />

will be housed in the storage<br />

unit and orders will be delivered<br />

weekly to a central collection<br />

point in Rolleston.”<br />

It is a significant step for the<br />

library committee, which has<br />

been working on the project for<br />

more than 15 months, Mrs Sim<br />

said.<br />

“It’s the single biggest<br />

breakthrough we’ve had yet.<br />

It has been hard to keep the<br />

faith at times, but we’ve always<br />

remained positive that we’ll see<br />

some results sooner or later. We<br />

are enormously grateful to Chris<br />

and Ayyam.”<br />

Mrs Sim said there is still a<br />

significant amount of work to do<br />

before the online toy library can<br />

open.<br />

“Toys and packaging need<br />

to be sourced, a website set<br />

up, and a membership system<br />

established. Much of this of<br />

The committee’s ultimate<br />

goal is still to open a fully<br />

Mr O’Brien, who co-owns<br />

Rolleston Storage King, said<br />

supporting community<br />

initiatives, groups and<br />

organisations is a core part of<br />

the business’ philosophy.<br />

“The Rolleston Toy Library<br />

signifies how powerful the<br />

“I feel very excited and proud.<br />

we put into training. It was a<br />

great feeling,” Chloe, 15, said.<br />

“It’s an extremely hard<br />

competition. We didn’t really<br />

achievement.”<br />

Chloe’s mother Shalyma<br />

A holiday of sweating<br />

in heat and stressing over illness<br />

IT IS HOT here. Swimming in<br />

sweat and trapped inside in the<br />

heat. But that’s to be expected<br />

from an Italian summer.<br />

We are in Laura’s home town<br />

of Pravisdomini, a rural village<br />

about an hour north of Venice,<br />

staying in the apartment where<br />

Laura’s mum used to live.<br />

So far we’ve only managed to<br />

catch up with a few people and<br />

get out a handful of times due<br />

to the constant heat and poor<br />

Vittoria only just getting over<br />

being sick from the week before<br />

last.<br />

You might remember from last<br />

week that poor wee Vittoria had<br />

not only been on antibiotics but<br />

had vomited in Dubai airport on<br />

our way over.<br />

For the whole of last week she<br />

was off her food (which is a quite<br />

a big deal considering we’re in<br />

Italy) and would vomit at least<br />

once a day. Normally after slowly<br />

having a munch on some cheese<br />

or grapes, some of the only<br />

things she would eat.<br />

Then on Wednesday she came<br />

out in a nasty looking red rash<br />

which was all over her body<br />

by Thursday. With the recent<br />

outbreak of measles at home in<br />

mind, we were worried that it<br />

ON THE MEND: First time<br />

walking in jandals on one of<br />

the very few walks of week<br />

one in Pravisdomini.<br />

could be something sinister, so<br />

we took a plunge into the Italian<br />

health system.<br />

Being that we’re staying in a<br />

fairly small rural village near<br />

Venice there’s nothing like a 24-<br />

hour surgery here. So we booked<br />

in to see the local doctor (who<br />

even wore a white coat) who sent<br />

us to the paediatric ward of the<br />

nearby San Vito hospital.<br />

We were obviously stretched<br />

pretty thin emotionally at<br />

this stage after spending days<br />

stressing about Vittoria and not<br />

sleeping well.<br />

Bubs on the other hand<br />

had managed to have a ball in<br />

between vomits since discovering<br />

a love of the tarantella (a type<br />

of music from Southern Italy)<br />

through the magic of a small<br />

singing hamster toy. Weird<br />

right? I mean, we’re not even in<br />

Southern Italy and I still hear<br />

Che La Luna about a million<br />

times a day.<br />

Thankfully said hospital was<br />

incredibly quiet and we were<br />

seen almost as soon as we walked<br />

in. After a thorough check we<br />

were told that it was likely down<br />

to be a reaction to the antibiotics.<br />

Nothing to worry about and<br />

it would clear up on its own in a<br />

couple of days. The cherry on top<br />

was that it didn’t cost as much as<br />

I feared. Less than 60 Euro isn’t<br />

too bad seeing as we’re foreign.<br />

With absolute relief awash<br />

through our systems we went out<br />

to eat on Saturday night with<br />

my sister-in-law Christine, her<br />

partner Fabrizio, my nephew<br />

William, his partner Sara and<br />

their daughter Grace (who’s<br />

around the same age as Vittoria).<br />

The village was celebrating La<br />

Festa del Gran Perdon, a religious<br />

festival which takes place every<br />

five years. Over the weekend<br />

there was music, theatre, games<br />

and a massive barbecue by the<br />

church, a beautiful 600-year-old<br />

edifice that nobody here thinks is<br />

as amazing as I do.<br />

Although it was still hot<br />

enough to fuse your shirt to your<br />

skin it was great to finally get out<br />

and spend some time with family<br />

and see Vittoria finally taste<br />

(literally and figuratively) a little<br />

of her mum’s culture as well.<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> Sounds<br />

Icehouse will wind the clock back<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

FEW BANDS can boast opening<br />

for David Bowie just six years<br />

after forming.<br />

But for front man Iva Davies<br />

and his band Icehouse, this is<br />

exactly what happened.<br />

The award-winning Australian<br />

rock outfit will bring their hitfilled<br />

set to <strong>Selwyn</strong> Sounds on<br />

March 7 next year.<br />

Icehouse’s line-up has changed<br />

many times since forming as<br />

Flowers more than 40 years ago.<br />

Davies has been there since the<br />

beginning.<br />

He said years of on-stage<br />

experience and songwriting<br />

would be encapsulated in<br />

the band’s <strong>Selwyn</strong> Sounds<br />

performance.<br />

“I’ve been working with some<br />

of these guys for 35 years and<br />

they are absolutely the most brilliant<br />

set of musicians that Australia<br />

has to offer, I’m completely<br />

confident in saying that.”<br />

Davies said the band was very<br />

selective with where they played<br />

these days, but they wanted to<br />

play <strong>Selwyn</strong> Sounds because<br />

New Zealand audiences had<br />

always been some of their biggest<br />

supporters.<br />

“The kind of relationship that<br />

we have with New Zealand is<br />

quite a special one because in the<br />

80s when we were in full swing,<br />

we noted even then per head of<br />

population we actually had more<br />

success in New Zealand than<br />

anywhere else in the world.”<br />

But, it is fair to say Icehouse’s<br />

music has been heard and appreciated<br />

by audiences all over<br />

the world.<br />

Davies said the turnaround<br />

from being a band of 20-something<br />

year olds $18,000 in debt to<br />

their management, to achieving<br />

international success had not<br />

been easy.<br />

“It was just ridiculously hard<br />

work.<br />

Domain<br />

“The first album [Icehouse<br />

when the band was still called<br />

Flowers] was a massive success<br />

in Australia, it was the highestselling<br />

debut album by any Australian<br />

band at that point . . . I<br />

remember when that first royalty<br />

cheque turned up. At that point<br />

I actually had no home, I was<br />

kind of couch surfing and under<br />

duress living in my parents home<br />

which I hated doing.<br />

“When that first album came<br />

out it was a big success and of<br />

course, we were able to pay off<br />

that debt and end up finally<br />

earning some money.”<br />

Davies said he didn’t believe<br />

the money would keep rolling<br />

in and certainly not that three<br />

years later Icehouse would have<br />

to choose between touring with<br />

David Bowie or Peter Gabriel.<br />

They decided to support Bowie<br />

on his 1983 Serious Moonlight<br />

European tour.<br />

“The sheer scale of it was just<br />

beyond comprehension when<br />

you’re playing to 70,000 people<br />

every show that you do . . . I<br />

remember pulling into one big<br />

outdoor show and there were<br />

about 10 coaches, 10 buses . . . my<br />

kind of head exploded because I<br />

couldn’t conceive 10 buses full of<br />

crew working on a single show.”<br />

Davies said the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Sounds<br />

crowd could expect Icehouse to<br />

wind back the clock and put on<br />

a performance with just as much<br />

energy as they brought all those<br />

years ago.<br />

Is your partner<br />

cheating on you?<br />

Are your instincts telling you that something is amiss?<br />

Don’t ignore your instincts<br />

Finding out the truth enables you to make informed decisions about<br />

your future, your wellbeing, and what’s best for you.<br />

Know for sure - Levey & Associates licensed private investigators<br />

Kerry and Amanda are dedicated to finding out the truth.<br />

Their main priorities are providing a confidential and quality service<br />

at an affordable price.<br />

An initial consultation of $160 for a one-hour face-to-face meeting may<br />

be all that you need to enable you to confirm or negate your suspicions.<br />

Or the company can provide further services such as surveillance etc,<br />

at a reasonable hourly rate (tailor-made plan to suit your budget).<br />

Signs can be different from one person to the next.<br />

Trust your intuition – people can typically always tell when a significant<br />

other is not being 100% truthful.<br />

If you suspect a cheating partner, do not confront your spouse until<br />

you have proof. A cheating spouse will almost never admit to infidelity<br />

unless presented with concrete evidence.<br />

Cheating spouses monitor their partners for signs of suspicion. If<br />

a cheating spouse detects suspicion, he/she will adjust his/her<br />

behaviour to better hide and conceal the affair.<br />

Levey & Associates is a small team of licensed private investigators<br />

with many years of investigative skills and knowledge. In operation<br />

for the past five years, the company offers a confidential and discrete<br />

service that is results focused.<br />

For more information and confidential advice, give Levey &<br />

Associates a call - Kerry or Amanda on 027 531 5317.<br />

• Increase in social activity – more<br />

time at cafes and bars<br />

• Password protecting phones or<br />

computers, and not sharing the<br />

passwords<br />

• Clearing the internet history, or<br />

minimising the computer screen<br />

purchasing a second phone<br />

• Changing behaviour over receiving<br />

phone calls, such as stilted<br />

conversation, leaving the room to<br />

talk, or not answering a phone call<br />

• Spending an unusual amount of<br />

time away from home with excuses<br />

that are often difficult to verify<br />

• Spending an increased amount of<br />

time texting/messaging or online<br />

• Changes in sexual patterns or<br />

behaviour<br />

• Increased interest in their<br />

appearance – they look, smell<br />

and dress better. They may start<br />

working out, and/or buying new<br />

clothes<br />

• Not being available when you call,<br />

text or email them<br />

• Acting secretive around the<br />

computer or cellphone. Being<br />

careful not to leave it unattended.<br />

• Getting very defensive when<br />

challenged. May accuse you of<br />

snooping or being paranoid or of<br />

not trusting them enough.<br />

• Working longer hours or taking up<br />

a new hobby<br />

• Changing habits/routine<br />

Team effort required to regain shield<br />

• By Jacob Page<br />

IF ELLESMERE want to regain<br />

the Southbridge Shield from<br />

North Canterbury on Saturday,<br />

they will have to try to stop<br />

North Canterbury’s Brook<br />

Retallick.<br />

Last year it was the North<br />

Canterbury’s No 10, Retallick,<br />

who scored <strong>21</strong> points in his<br />

team’s victory 36-29 win at<br />

Prebbleton.<br />

Ellesmere team manager, Michael<br />

Sheat said while they were<br />

well aware of Retallick’s talents,<br />

they would need a team effort to<br />

regain the Southbridge Shield.<br />

“That’ll be a good match-up<br />

between (Retallick) and (Shannon)<br />

Donald but we know that if<br />

we concentrate too much on one<br />

player, that there are others who<br />

can cause us problems.”<br />

Ellesmere’s lead-up suffered a<br />

blow when they were beaten 38-<br />

15 by a strong Canterbury Maori<br />

Waitaha team at Kirwee.<br />

However, North Canterbury,<br />

who also lost to Canterbury<br />

Maori Waitaha a fortnight ago,<br />

also tasted defeat on the weekend<br />

to the Cantabrians 35-13.<br />

Ellesmere beat the Cantabrians<br />

15-0 in soggy conditions a<br />

fortnight ago.<br />

Sheat said Ellesmere stuck<br />

to the task well against “a very<br />

physical” Canterbury Maori<br />

Waitaha forward pack.<br />

“We did pretty well defensively,”<br />

he said.<br />

“We just missed some oneon-one<br />

tackles and they scored<br />

two late which helped their score<br />

but I didn’t think we played too<br />

badly.<br />

“We have to trust our systems<br />

and processes and work hard on<br />

what we can control this week.<br />

“We have guys carrying niggles<br />

but this is the big game<br />

for us for the year and it’s one<br />

everyone wants to be part of,”<br />

Sheat said.<br />

The game at Loburn will<br />

kick-off at 2.45pm.<br />

SPORT<br />

PIVOT: The<br />

KEY: One of the big challenges Ellesmere face in trying to<br />

experience of<br />

claim back the Southbridge Shield on Saturday is shutting<br />

24 <strong>August</strong> - 18 September <strong>2019</strong><br />

Like portals to paradise, Kirsty Nixon’s large-scale paintings invite the viewer to<br />

pull back the ‘fringes’ of our native flora to reveal quintessentially New Zealand<br />

landscapes hidden in behind. Framed by the structural forms of our native<br />

foliage, like cabbage tree leaves or nectar-laden flax flowers, and almost always<br />

with a native bird or two in attendance, unfolding before your eyes could be<br />

an endless coastline, a deep, green cove or perhaps even a glimpse of the far<br />

horizon.<br />

Kirsty is repeatedly drawn to the New Zealand landscape<br />

in its various guises and while on holiday at the bird<br />

sanctuary island Tiritiri Matangi recently she experienced<br />

a sense of utter peace while watching the bellbirds<br />

flitting about the feeders and hearing their hypnotic song.<br />

Returning home, she became keenly aware of the absence<br />

of native birdsong and thus her new works pay tribute to<br />

the ways in which the melodic voices of our native birds<br />

have the ability to enrich our lives as we navigate daily life.<br />

Based in Auckland, Kirsty has been painting full-time<br />

since 1997, initially in the medium of watercolour but<br />

now having found her home in the freedom and impact of<br />

acrylic.<br />

into North<br />

Canty match<br />

• By Jacob Page<br />

THE ELLESMERE colts had a<br />

strong final hit-out before they<br />

meet their North Canterbury<br />

counterparts on Saturday.<br />

They took down the Canterbury<br />

Maori colts 24-10 over the<br />

weekend, thanks to a strong<br />

first half in which they adapted<br />

quickly to the wet conditions at<br />

Kirwee.<br />

Team manager Dave Beatty<br />

said the squad are eager to avenge<br />

the loss to North Canterbury<br />

last year and their performance<br />

on Saturday means they are<br />

travelling in the right direction.<br />

Ellesmere raced out to a 17-0<br />

half-time lead on the back of a<br />

dominant scrum and lineout.<br />

“We got a couple of tries from<br />

(the scrum) so the tactic worked. I<br />

felt we buttoned-off in the second<br />

and let them score a couple of<br />

tries, but credit to them, they<br />

fought back well,” Beatty said.<br />

“The track at Kirwee held up<br />

well, despite the rain, and we<br />

were able to play the up-tempo<br />

style of game that we wanted. We<br />

were turning down shots at goal<br />

to take attacking scrums and we<br />

were pushing them backwards<br />

regularly.”<br />

GREENPARK B is the only team<br />

in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> premier netball<br />

competiton with three wins from<br />

three games.<br />

Greenpark B downed<br />

Southbridge A 51-44 at the<br />

Lincoln Event Centre on<br />

Saturday, making them the first<br />

team to confirm a semi-final spot<br />

with two games to go in round<br />

three.<br />

Broadfield A also won their<br />

grand-final rematch against<br />

Greenpark A by the surprisingly<br />

high margin of 26.<br />

The 66-40 triumph gave<br />

Broadfield A a strong chance of<br />

finishing in top spot if they can<br />

maintain their form.<br />

Lincoln A were able to keep<br />

their semi-final chances alive<br />

with a 59-46 win over Prebbleton<br />

A.<br />

Greenpark B player/coach<br />

Mechelle Barltrop said her team<br />

made hard work of the win, only<br />

leading by two goals heading<br />

into the fourth quarter before<br />

eventually pulling away.<br />

“Southbridge came to make<br />

it hard for us and they certainly<br />

managed that,” she said.<br />

“We battled to build a lead.<br />

Every time we’d get ahead by a<br />

few we’d get pulled back in.<br />

“It was good that we<br />

held on to a tight lead<br />

because often we’d lose it<br />

when in that position.”<br />

Barltrop praised the<br />

return of Leah Zygmont,<br />

who provided a strong<br />

option in the shooting<br />

circle and cover for<br />

players nursing injuries.<br />

Southbridge coach<br />

Sarah Ormandy was<br />

disappointed to let a<br />

winnable game slip away<br />

and not pick up a bonus point for<br />

losing within five goals.<br />

Broadfield A coach Yvonne<br />

Crichton-Hill said she was<br />

delighted with her team’s<br />

progression after they raced<br />

out to a 14-goal first quarter<br />

advantage and never looked back<br />

against defending champions<br />

Greenpark A. The 20-6<br />

advantage proved too much for<br />

an out-of-sorts Greenpark A and<br />

they never recovered.<br />

Broadfield A shooter Maia<br />

Hill will be one to watch if her<br />

Yvonne<br />

Crichton-Hill<br />

team makes the semi-finals next<br />

month.<br />

“We are just trying to be better<br />

each week,” Crichton-Hill said.<br />

“The whole team<br />

stood out and<br />

impressed me.”<br />

Greenpark A coach<br />

Zaylie Sullivan said her<br />

team were well below<br />

their best.<br />

“When one of us goes<br />

off the boil, we all have<br />

a bad game,” she said.<br />

Darfield set for surprise<br />

return to top division<br />

• By Jacob Page<br />

DARFIELD PRESIDENT Dave Beatty<br />

was shocked to find out his team have<br />

been reinstated to the Canterbury<br />

Country premier cricket competition.<br />

The decision to include them was made<br />

last week after Kaiapoi were forced to<br />

withdraw from the competition – which<br />

starts in October – due to<br />

a lack of numbers<br />

Darfield finished at the<br />

bottom of the table last<br />

year and were relegated<br />

from the eight-team<br />

premier grade. They<br />

unsuccessfully tried to<br />

overturn their demotion<br />

Dave Beatty<br />

in June.<br />

But after Kaiapoi’s<br />

annual meeting on <strong>August</strong> 12, the club<br />

told the Canterbury Country Cricket<br />

Association it would not be in a position<br />

to enter a premier team in the <strong>2019</strong>/20<br />

season.<br />

“I was quite shocked to get the news<br />

that we were back,” Beatty said. “After we<br />

missed out trying to make it a nine-team<br />

competition in June, I’d pretty much got<br />

over it.”<br />

Darfield reformed last season after a<br />

seven-year absence.<br />

Beatty said while he accepted the<br />

promotion/relegation rules, he felt his<br />

team were unlucky to end up the cellardwellers<br />

of the competition.<br />

“We had four or five rained out games<br />

and a couple of tight losses, so it was not<br />

an ideal situation. We only lost one guy<br />

from last season because he went on his<br />

OE, but the rest of us were prepared to<br />

FREE<br />

go down and try to get us back to the top<br />

grade.<br />

“After Christmas, we’ll have New<br />

Zealand age-group rep Jesse Frew<br />

available and two or three players who<br />

play first XI cricket in town.”<br />

Beatty said the club’s close relationship<br />

with Kirwee, Sheffield, Malvern and<br />

Greendale means there is now a pathway<br />

into premier cricket for players from those<br />

areas.<br />

Lincoln have earned promotion to the<br />

premier grade after they won the secondtier<br />

senior competition.<br />

There will now be four Ellesmere<br />

teams – Darfield, Lincoln, Weedons and<br />

Leeston-Southbridge – in the premier<br />

competition when the season starts<br />

on October 5. Cheviot, Southbrook,<br />

Sefton and Oxford will also play in the<br />

competition.<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> Awards, a great way<br />

to benchmark<br />

success<br />

Continuing our series profiling the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Awards 2018 winners. Eurofins won the Large<br />

Business Award.<br />

For Rolleston company Eurofins, winning at the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Awards was a signal of success for staff<br />

and customers.<br />

Eurofins, based in Izone, provide laboratory-based food, water and land testing services to<br />

businesses across the <strong>Selwyn</strong> district.<br />

It is part of a global network of over 800 laboratories spread over 47 countries. Peter McLaughlin,<br />

Account Manager for Eurofins Rolleston, speaks passionately about their business successes and<br />

what winning the Large Business Award at the 2018 <strong>Selwyn</strong> Awards meant to the <strong>Selwyn</strong> branch<br />

of the international business and their 30 staff.<br />

“We thought we provided pretty good customer service already and winning not only reinforced that<br />

we were in fact doing well, but it also helped our reputation and built trust from local customers.”<br />

They heard about the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Awards when Mayor Sam Broughton suggested they enter during a<br />

tour of their facilities in 2018.<br />

Eurofins has been going from strength to strength, but they need to continue to grow so entering<br />

into, and winning, the Large Business category was a great way to benchmark their success Mr<br />

McLaughlin says.<br />

“We had never entered any awards before, but it was so easy. From a management perspective,<br />

the application process was great as it prompts you to think about all the facets of the business<br />

and whether you are truly achieving them to the best of your ability. Of course, when we heard the<br />

announcement at the Gala Dinner that we had won we were thrilled!”<br />

The Gala Dinner was a fun celebration, he says.<br />

“It was a great way to show our staff how their involvement contributed to the success of Eurofins<br />

and to thank them for that. The evening was wonderful, there were so many different businesses<br />

and <strong>Selwyn</strong> residents there, the local entertainment was wonderful and the MC was hilarious.”<br />

After going through the application process, attending the Gala Dinner and, of course winning<br />

the Large Business category, Mr McLaughlin says he would highly recommend other <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

businesses enter the 2020 <strong>Selwyn</strong> Awards.<br />

One-stop farm waste recycling day coming<br />

to <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

Farmers in Ellesmere and surrounds will have the chance to take part in a new pilot farm waste<br />

recycling event providing a one-stop-shop to dispose of farm plastics, chemicals and oil.<br />

The pilot Agrecovery programme will be in Ellesmere on Monday 9 September. During the day farmers<br />

and growers who have preregistered will be able to drop off chemical containers, silage and bale wrap,<br />

fertiliser and feedbags, waste oil and unwanted chemicals for recycling, or safe disposal. To take part in<br />

the day people must register at agrecovery.co.nz, book a time and indicate the type of wastes they will<br />

be bringing. The location will be provided to registered attendees.<br />

The Council is partnering with Agrecovery for the day. Given our large rural sector, we jumped at the<br />

chance to offer the <strong>Selwyn</strong> district as one of six places nationwide to get the programme first, Council<br />

Solid Waste manager Andrew Boyd says.<br />

“Council is committed to working with the rural community to help find sustainable options for<br />

disposing of farm waste. The Agrecovery One-Stop-Shop rural waste recycling events provide a great<br />

opportunity for the community to dispose of waste safely, especially in more remote rural communities.<br />

We encourage people to get behind these events and register.”<br />

Agrecovery held two similar trial events in 2018 in Geraldine and Matamata and collected nearly 20<br />

tonnes of rural waste. Geraldine Farm Manager Aaron Gorrie participated in the 2018 event and says it<br />

was a positive day that he hoped others would take advantage of.<br />

“Like most farmers we are committed to sustainable farming. It’s important to leave a legacy for future<br />

generations. We have a Farm Environment Plan in place, and we work hard to ensure we meet the<br />

requirements of the plan. This is a great opportunity to have unwanted chemicals correctly disposed of.”<br />

Welcome to the family at<br />

citizenship ceremony<br />

There was a family atmosphere as new New Zealanders were<br />

welcomed at <strong>Selwyn</strong>’s latest monthly citizenship ceremony.<br />

The 19 new citizens from 10 different countries received their<br />

citizenship in the ceremony at Tai Tapu Community Centre.<br />

The West Rolleston Primary School Choir opened the evening with<br />

renditions of Crowded House’s ‘Don’t Dream it’s Over’ and the new<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> district waiata and later led the group in the national anthem<br />

Many of the new citizens came as family groups with<br />

grandparents, parents and soon-to-be parents among the mix.<br />

For Dorothy Chilwalo, originally from Zambia, it was a proud<br />

moment to become a New Zealander together with her children<br />

Angela Yendama – a youth worker, newly graduated from the<br />

University of Canterbury – and Chinjila Lunda, a year 13 student.<br />

“I could have taken it a long time ago, but I was waiting for these guys<br />

to grow up and make their own decisions to become New Zealanders.”<br />

After moving from Scotland in 2007 with her two young children<br />

to escape the cold and on the recommendation of friends, the<br />

registered nurse says she fell in love with New Zealand.<br />

“Its home. We loved the place, we loved the people, the culture.”<br />

For Australian Richard Fowler encouragement from his wife helped<br />

with the decision that it was time, after 50 years of ‘enjoying the<br />

fabulous opportunities this country offers,’ to officially become a<br />

New Zealander, while for British couple Peter and Alison Cain it<br />

was a desire to join their young Kiwi born daughter as citizens of<br />

her homeland.<br />

Bidhan Chapagai from Bhutan, who moved to New Zealand four<br />

years ago, received rousing applause when he told the room it was<br />

“a true honour and a privilege to be a New Zealand citizen.”<br />

New citizens Dorothy Chilwalo, Angela Yendama and Chinjila Lunda, with Mayor Sam<br />

Broughton and Major Grant Payton<br />

Businesses encouraged to<br />

seize opportunity from<br />

upgraded directory<br />

Businesses are being offered the opportunity to be included in the<br />

refreshed <strong>Selwyn</strong> Directory.<br />

The Council has unveiled an updated <strong>Selwyn</strong> Directory—a searchable<br />

online directory of businesses in the district. The directory is now<br />

open for registrations or updated details.<br />

It offers businesses the chance to advertise their details including<br />

a map location, contacts, website and social media links and a<br />

summary of their business.<br />

The directory is part of Council’s work to support local businesses<br />

and encourage people to think local when looking for goods and<br />

services, Community Services and Facilities group manager Denise<br />

Kidd says.<br />

As well as providing a free opportunity to promote to customers in<br />

the district to customers the directory will help business to business<br />

links, she says.<br />

“The directory is a great tool for finding local resources to assist your<br />

business. As a smaller district we know businesses are strengthened<br />

by looking at where they can complement each other and by<br />

working together and the directory’s a good way to connect.”<br />

The Council is consulting on proposed changes to the Waste<br />

Management and Minimisation Bylaw 2012.<br />

It’s the Council’s role to manage waste and to help protect the natural<br />

environment. The bylaw forms an integral part of the management of<br />

waste in the district and is referred to in a number of documents, as<br />

well as referenced on kerbside and public litter bin labels.<br />

The key changes proposed in this review relate to kerbside collections<br />

times, waste management plans for commercial or industrial resource<br />

and building consents, as well as events.<br />

This draft Waste Management and Minimisation Bylaw <strong>2019</strong> will, upon<br />

adoption, replace the Waste Management and Minimisation Bylaw 2012.<br />

SELWYN RURAL LIFE<br />

SELWYN TIMES<br />

Facing the<br />

future of food<br />

Embracing innovative food systems is the future for our agri-based economy.<br />

The world of food is changing rapidly. The<br />

planet is under pressure, with consumers<br />

demanding more ethically-produced,<br />

affordable foods than ever before.<br />

Lincoln University researchers are<br />

responding to this by bringing together<br />

expertise from science, commerce and<br />

economics to create a more consumerfocused<br />

approach to agricultural<br />

production.<br />

A Lincoln University Centre of<br />

Excellence, Food for Future Consumers,<br />

has been established to focus on the links<br />

between provenance (including place<br />

of origin, authenticity, land, and agroecosystems)<br />

and food qualities (such<br />

as production values, composition and<br />

preferences).<br />

Head of the Centre Dr Roland Harrison<br />

says New Zealand must embrace a<br />

paradigm shift from a production-driven<br />

to a market-driven agri-food sector.<br />

“Adapting to a future where market<br />

signals are acknowledged and interpreted<br />

requires initiatives that facilitate a wholeof-chain<br />

industry response.<br />

“The benefit to producers will be the<br />

potential to capture a greater proportion of<br />

the value embedded in their products. The<br />

benefit for consumers will be foods that<br />

meet individual standards and expectations,<br />

whether these be about nutrition and<br />

health, authenticity or sustainability.”<br />

Dr Harrison says a considerable challenge<br />

lies in consumers’ increasing demand for<br />

ethically-produced yet affordable foods,<br />

while production systems are under<br />

pressure to improve their environmental<br />

performance.<br />

“The Centre of Excellence takes an<br />

interdisciplinary approach, combining<br />

Lincoln’s expertise in fundamental and<br />

applied sciences with its ability to offer<br />

in-depth consumer and business insights.<br />

The idea is to meet consumer requests for<br />

authentic, sustainably-produced, highquality<br />

products from both traditional and<br />

non-traditional production systems.<br />

“Embracing innovative food systems is<br />

the future for our agri-based economy. We<br />

intend to use the specialised knowledge<br />

within the Centre of Excellence to<br />

generate new knowledge and convert that<br />

into applied solutions for the agri-food<br />

industry,” says Dr Harrison.<br />

“Consumers want to know more about<br />

where their food has come from and how<br />

it is made. They want to know the story<br />

behind the food they choose.<br />

“However, different consumers will make<br />

of different offerings that appeal to their<br />

industry’s interests to service that need in<br />

an ethical and sustainable way.<br />

Lincoln University researchers will<br />

partner with other organisations working<br />

in the agri-food domain to focus on a range<br />

of research themes.<br />

These include characterising how<br />

production practices affect food<br />

composition, researching cognitive and<br />

sensory aspects of food consumption,<br />

and expanding consumer choices through<br />

business and product innovation.<br />

Researchers will also explore new<br />

technologies that can protect provenance<br />

and provide traceability.<br />

The Food for Future Consumers<br />

Allergy<br />

season early -<br />

be prepared<br />

Itchy and watery eyes, runny nose,<br />

sneezing, tickly throat…<br />

These are just some of the symptoms<br />

you may get if you suffer from hay fever.<br />

If you are already experiencing those<br />

tell-tale symptoms of hay fever - itchy and<br />

watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing, tickly<br />

throat – then you’re not alone.<br />

This year pharmacies are already<br />

experiencing an early rise in hay fever<br />

complaints, even from those who have never<br />

experienced it before.<br />

New Zealand is known to be one of the<br />

worst countries for hay fever and with<br />

climatic changes in our seasons on the rise,<br />

it could become all year round for some<br />

sufferers.<br />

Research suggests pollen is on the increase.<br />

Warmer winters with fewer frosts may be to<br />

blame, as extreme cold is needed to dampen<br />

or kill off some pollen-producing plants.<br />

Aside from using over-the-counter<br />

medications to treat hay fever and allergies,<br />

there are a number of things you can do<br />

that may help lessen the symptoms such<br />

as taking natural remedies to boost your<br />

immunity: local honey, turmeric, vitamin C,<br />

Omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin A and zinc.<br />

free annual pollen calendar.<br />

10 Tips to a dust and pollen-free home<br />

• Vacuum regularly: Vacuum 1-2 times a<br />

week to keep your house dust mite, pet<br />

hair and dander free.<br />

• Brush your pets outside: If you regularly<br />

brush your pets, do it outdoors away from<br />

open windows and doors.<br />

• Wash your bedding: Wash your sheets<br />

weekly and dry them in the dryer when<br />

pollen is at its worst.<br />

• Regularly clean furnishings: Choose easy to<br />

wash fabrics for drapes, curtains, cushion<br />

and sofa covers to help keep allergens at<br />

bay.<br />

• Hard flooring vs carpet: Choose flooring<br />

such as vinyl or timber, which are easier to<br />

wash and keep clean.<br />

• Keep pollen and dust outside: Shut<br />

windows and doors on windy days.<br />

• Remove your outdoor clothing: Change<br />

your gardening or walking clothes when<br />

you come inside to avoid bringing pollen<br />

into your home and onto your furnishings.<br />

• Stay indoors: Choose your time to spend<br />

outdoors. Most pollen is emitted between<br />

5am and 10am; however, pollen counts do<br />

vary throughout the day.<br />

• In the garden: Regularly remove dead<br />

plants and leaves; stay away from, or wear<br />

a mask, when lawn mowing.<br />

• In the car: Keep windows closed and set<br />

the air conditioning on recirculate to keep<br />

pollen-laden air out.<br />

Federated Farmers committed<br />

to reducing greenhouse gases<br />

The Action on Agricultural Emissions<br />

discussion paper is a positive first step as<br />

farmers and the Government hammer<br />

out a practical path to reduce livestock<br />

greenhouse gas emissions, Federated<br />

Farmers says.<br />

“We are agreed that a priority is to find a<br />

workable and affordable way that farmers<br />

can measure emissions and sinks at the<br />

farm level and to adopt practices and any<br />

new technologies that will help drive down<br />

methane and nitrous oxide emissions,”<br />

Federated Farmers climate change<br />

spokesman Andrew Hoggard says.<br />

“Where we differ is that the Government<br />

keeps emphasising pricing as the<br />

predominant tool. Federated Farmers does<br />

not agree with universal pricing of methane.<br />

The Emissions Trading Scheme has failed<br />

to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from<br />

transport – in fact, transport emissions<br />

have nearly doubled since 1990. Universal<br />

pricing of methane will be similarly<br />

unsuccessful.”<br />

What Federated Farmers has committed<br />

to is working with the Government to<br />

design a pricing mechanism where any<br />

price is part of a broader framework to<br />

support on-farm practice change. Such<br />

pricing would be set at the margin, that<br />

is, only applying to methane emissions<br />

over the 0.3% per annum reductions that<br />

science says is enough to ensure methane<br />

no longer adds to global warming.<br />

New Zealand farmers are proud to be<br />

among the most efficient producers in<br />

world and, unlike many of their overseas<br />

competitors, essentially stand on their own<br />

two feet as their animals stand on their<br />

own four feet. Farmers here are largely<br />

unsubsidised by consumers (by way of<br />

inflated prices) or taxpayers and that has<br />

been the case for over 30 years, Hoggard<br />

says.<br />

If New Zealand’s milk and meat export<br />

volumes reduce as a result of lower onfarm<br />

production, the gap will be filled by<br />

less efficient producers. This is known as<br />

“emissions leakage” and will ultimately<br />

increase global emissions and food costs.<br />

“So any pricing should only be a tool<br />

to incentivise farmers into taking up<br />

economically viable opportunities to cut<br />

methane, just as the Government might use<br />

incentives or a nudge to encourage people<br />

to switch to an electric vehicle.<br />

“Unlike a fossil-fuel powered vehicle,<br />

there is no ‘electric sheep’ equivalent for<br />

farmers. But there is the potential for<br />

methane inhibitors or a vaccine, albeit<br />

some years away from proof and coming to<br />

market,” Hoggard says.<br />

Breeding low-emission animals and<br />

selecting low-emission feeds are options<br />

being explored in the meantime. The<br />

agriculture sector has committed to work<br />

with the Government and iwi/Maori to<br />

design a practical and cost-effective system<br />

for reducing emissions at farm level –<br />

including a pricing mechanism as part of<br />

the broad framework – by 2025.<br />

Meanwhile, the sector’s proposed 5-year<br />

programme of action is aimed at ensuring<br />

farmers and growers are equipped with the<br />

knowledge and tools they need to deliver<br />

emissions reductions while maintaining<br />

profitability.<br />

Professional designer offers<br />

innovation and beauty<br />

Looking forward to the warmer<br />

weather signals a good time to<br />

start planning your new garden or<br />

revamping your existing one, suggests<br />

landscape designer Sharon Crofts.<br />

A good way to start, she says, is with<br />

a consultation to discuss your ideas and,<br />

from there, Sharon will produce a design<br />

concept and a planting schedule to create<br />

a garden that’s unique to you and your<br />

lifestyle.<br />

While many homeowners like to<br />

plan their own gardens, calling on a<br />

professional designer can be very helpful<br />

as they often have design and planting<br />

ideas or innovative landscape options the<br />

home gardener hadn’t thought of.<br />

Sharon covers all aspects of landscape<br />

design from the initial site consultation<br />

to preparing design concepts and<br />

planting proposals, making it easy for the<br />

homeowners to implement themselves if<br />

that want to.<br />

If not, Sharon Crofts Landscape<br />

Design has a team of experienced and<br />

professional contracts who will complete<br />

the work to exacting standards and<br />

work throughout Canterbury including<br />

residential properties, rural and lifestyle<br />

blocks and new subdivisions, particularly<br />

in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> area.<br />

Garden centres and nurseries are well<br />

stocked with new plants and shrubs for<br />

your garden at this time of year and<br />

having your own personalised landscape<br />

plan can certainly reduce the indecision<br />

over which plants to choose, says Sharon.<br />

Having your paving or decking areas<br />

professional designed and executed will<br />

give the landscaping that professional<br />

edge which, in turn, will add to the<br />

property’s value.<br />

Sharon enjoys working collaboratively<br />

with her clients and transforming initial<br />

plans into reality within budget and on<br />

time. Her many years of experience also<br />

help when it comes to what planting<br />

works in the Canterbury climate and with<br />

local soils.<br />

small or large give Sharon a call at<br />

Garden design does not<br />

need to be expensive<br />

Designing your dream garden does not<br />

need to be an expensive exercise. The team<br />

at The Outdoor Space can design your dream<br />

garden for as little as $400 for a 1000m2 section<br />

producing a colour hand drawn design.<br />

“Clients may have ideas of what they’d like<br />

or none at all and we can come up with some<br />

great suggestions,” says owner of The Outdoor<br />

Space, Aaron Bartlett.<br />

The arrival of spring is lawn time, whether<br />

it is seed, hydro seed or ready lawn. Book<br />

now to avoid disappointment. Or if you do<br />

not have time for lawn maintenance they can<br />

lay artificial grass which is becoming more<br />

popular, looks like the real thing and saves<br />

costs such as water to irrigate, fertilisers and<br />

chemicals and gives you more time to enjoy<br />

relaxing in you outdoor space.<br />

When putting in a lawn think about<br />

irrigation to keep it green in summer. The<br />

Outdoor Space team can design and install<br />

fully automatic systems which pop up in lawns,<br />

drip irrigation<br />

or micro spray<br />

along with<br />

separate watering<br />

to vegetable<br />

gardens and<br />

glasshouses.<br />

All watering<br />

systems have a<br />

controller or can<br />

be connected to WiFi.<br />

Spring is also a good time to think about<br />

your vegetable garden. Raised gardens are<br />

perfect and easy to maintain.<br />

“We love the gardens built with macrocarpa<br />

to any size, shape or height. We screw them<br />

together, router the edges and fill with soil and<br />

compost - and can even plant the vegetables,”<br />

says Aaron.<br />

Fire pits and fires are a popular feature in<br />

an outdoor space. Fire pits are a cheaper and a<br />

custom-designed concrete block fire pit, lined<br />

with fire bricks looks great. A timber top can<br />

be added so it can double as an outdoor coffee<br />

table.<br />

If you would like something bigger they can<br />

put in wood and gas outdoor fires, either a<br />

custom build or install the likes of Trendz or<br />

Flare fires, cladding them in stonework for a<br />

unique look.<br />

The staff at The Outdoor Space love new<br />

challenges and enjoy bringing clients’ ideas<br />

to life including paving, irrigation, lawns,<br />

planting, fences, pergolas, water features,<br />

outdoor fires and fire pits, raised planters,<br />

decks, stonework, brick and blockwork,<br />

artificial grass, outdoor kitchens and garden<br />

Spring cleaning<br />

the non-toxic way<br />

Spring cleaning can be a chore but is also an opportunity to look at introducing<br />

non-toxic cleaning products into your home that can be made from scratch, cost<br />

less and reduce waste and the amount of household chemicals.<br />

To start there are several key ingredients,<br />

for example, baking soda with its proven<br />

virus-killing abilities that also effectively<br />

cleans, deodorises, brightens and cuts<br />

through grease and grime.<br />

Castile soap is completely made from<br />

plant oils with no chemical detergents<br />

or animal products is basic and also cuts<br />

through grease and grime.<br />

Essential oils have naturally occurring<br />

plant compounds to add scent to your<br />

cleaning products particularly if you don’t<br />

like the smell of vinegar.<br />

Natural lemon juice annihilates mildew<br />

and mould, cuts through grease and shines<br />

hard surfaces – and also smells great.<br />

And olive oil is not only good for you but<br />

cooking oil also works as a cleaner and<br />

polisher.<br />

Thanks to its acidity, vinegar is nothing<br />

short of a cleaning miracle and effectively<br />

eliminates soap scum, grease and grime.<br />

Combinations of these ingredients in a<br />

spray bottle can create a range of non-toxic<br />

cleaners for every part of your home and<br />

can often be used in multiple places.<br />

For a heavy-duty toilet scrub that cleans<br />

and deodorises, pour ½ cup of baking soda<br />

and about 10 drops of tea tree essential oil<br />

into the toilet. Add ¼ cup of vinegar to the<br />

bowl and scrub away while the mixture<br />

fizzes.<br />

To get rid of mildew in a shower, spray<br />

pure white vinegar on the area, let it sit<br />

for at least 30 minutes and then rinse with<br />

warm water.<br />

A homemade disinfectant can be made<br />

with two cups of water, three tablespoons<br />

of liquid soap, and 20-30 drops of tea tree<br />

oil.<br />

As an option for bleach, mix ½ cup<br />

baking soda, 1 teaspoon castile soap, and ½<br />

teaspoon hydrogen peroxide. Use a cloth to<br />

apply the mixture to a wet surface, scrub,<br />

and then rinse thoroughly.<br />

For more options, there is plenty of<br />

information on-line about how to make<br />

this year’s spring clean easier on the<br />

environment and on the wallet.<br />

Tasty Bites<br />

SELWYN TIMES<br />

Getting protein through a science-based diet<br />

The role of protein in<br />

people’s bodies, its<br />

sources and the benefits of<br />

consuming it across the day<br />

can’t be underestimated.<br />

These recipes provide a<br />

science-based approach to<br />

ensuring you get enough in<br />

your diet<br />

Orange kumara and<br />

haloumi fritters<br />

Serves 4<br />

Ingredients<br />

1.2kg orange kumara, peeled and<br />

coarsely grated<br />

320g haloumi, coarsely grated<br />

2 tsp ground cumin<br />

Light olive oil spray for cooking<br />

2 cloves garlic, crushed<br />

4 spring onions, white part thinly<br />

sliced into rounds, green part<br />

thinly sliced diagonally<br />

120g baby spinach leaves<br />

Avocado dressing:<br />

80g medium-sized avocado<br />

⅓ cup (80ml) white wine vinegar<br />

or apple cider vinegar<br />

½ tsp dijon mustard<br />

Directions<br />

To make the avocado dressing,<br />

blend all the ingredients in a jug<br />

with a hand-held blender until<br />

GARDENING<br />

smooth. Season with black pepper<br />

and set aside.<br />

Heat a large non-stick frying<br />

pan over low-medium heat.<br />

Combine the kumara, haloumi<br />

and cumin in a bowl and season<br />

with freshly ground black pepper.<br />

Lightly spray the pan with<br />

olive oil and drop in firmly<br />

packed cup measures of the<br />

kumara mixture, pressing down<br />

to form 8cm circles. Depending<br />

on the size of your pan, you will<br />

probably need to do this in two<br />

batches of four.<br />

Cook for 5min each side<br />

or until golden and cooked<br />

through. Remove and cover to<br />

keep warm. Lightly spray the pan<br />

with a little more oil and increase<br />

the heat to high.<br />

Add the garlic, white part<br />

of the spring onion, spinach<br />

and 60ml water. Cook, tossing<br />

constantly, for 2min or until the<br />

spinach has just wilted. Remove<br />

the pan from the heat and season<br />

with black pepper.<br />

Serve two kumara fritters per<br />

person, layered with the spinach<br />

mixture. Spoon over the dressing<br />

and sprinkle with the green<br />

spring onion.<br />

Roast herb chicken and<br />

vegetables<br />

Serves 4 with leftovers<br />

Ingredients<br />

½ cup finely chopped flat-leaf<br />

parsley<br />

2 Tbsp finely chopped rosemary<br />

1 Tbsp mixed dried herbs<br />

6 cloves garlic, crushed<br />

¼ cup (60ml) olive oil<br />

¼ cup (60ml) red wine vinegar<br />

1.8kg lean chicken tenderloins<br />

1 head cauliflower, cut into florets<br />

7 carrots, sliced into rounds<br />

7 zucchini, thickly sliced into<br />

rounds<br />

750g button mushrooms<br />

Light olive oil spray for cooking<br />

1 cup (250ml) salt-reduced<br />

chicken stock<br />

Lemon wedges and flat-leaf parsley<br />

leaves, to serve<br />

Ingredients<br />

Heat the oven to 200 deg C (or<br />

180 deg C fan-forced).<br />

Combine the parsley, rosemary,<br />

dried herbs, garlic, olive<br />

oil, vinegar and chicken in a<br />

large bowl. Season generously<br />

with freshly ground black pepper<br />

and toss well to coat the chicken.<br />

Divide the vegetables among<br />

two large roasting tins and<br />

lightly spray with olive oil. Toss<br />

to combine, then top evenly with<br />

the chicken mixture.<br />

Pour half the stock over the<br />

ingredients in each tin. Bake,<br />

swapping the tins halfway<br />

through and tossing the chicken<br />

and vegetables, for 25-30min<br />

or until the chicken is cooked<br />

through and the vegetables are<br />

soft.<br />

Divide one-third of the chicken<br />

and vegetables among four for<br />

dinner, with lemon wedges and<br />

parsley. Cool the leftovers, then<br />

divide evenly between two large<br />

airtight containers.<br />

Store the leftovers in the fridge<br />

for up to two days or in the<br />

freezer for three months. Thaw<br />

the frozen mixture in the fridge<br />

overnight. Transfer the chilled<br />

mixture to a baking dish and<br />

reheat in a preheated 220 deg C<br />

(200 deg C fan-forced) oven for<br />

15-20min or until hot and crisp.<br />

Magnificent magnolias need protection<br />

LATE WINTER is the season<br />

when the deciduous magnolias<br />

are at their best.<br />

<strong>August</strong> seems to force these<br />

gorgeous flowers to open in a<br />

rush.<br />

The breathtaking sight of the<br />

large, tulip-like blooms perching<br />

on bare branches can send<br />

passers-by rushing to the nursery<br />

to buy something similar.<br />

There are dozens of magnolia<br />

varieties, and making a choice<br />

can be a formidable task.<br />

Most grow into small trees<br />

but, if space is tight, look for<br />

one of the shrub-sized star<br />

magnolias.<br />

Because magnolias come from<br />

cool climates with rich, moistureholding<br />

soil, keeping them<br />

happy through hot New Zealand<br />

summers can be a challenge.<br />

It’s important to take the<br />

opportunity to improve the<br />

soil as much as possible before<br />

planting.<br />

Choose a spot that gets at least<br />

half a day’s sun and is protected<br />

from strong winds. Because<br />

magnolias hate being dry, it<br />

can also be helpful to add some<br />

water-storing crystals into the<br />

planting area.<br />

Create a planting hole that’s<br />

about twice the size of the pot<br />

and approximately the same<br />

depth. Take the plant out of the<br />

pot with care (magnolias hate<br />

root disturbance) and sit it into<br />

the planting hole.<br />

Backfill, then water well to<br />

settle everything into place.<br />

Lastly, spread a layer of organic<br />

mulch. This will keep the soil<br />

moist and stop competitive grass<br />

from growing back over the root<br />

area.<br />

“We have heard such wonderful things about Senior Move Managers<br />

and are thrilled to have this opportunity to offer this package.”<br />

Talk to Karen TODAY to take advantage of this generous offer.<br />

Karen 027 373 9463<br />

Where to<br />

from here?<br />

Karen says the next stages will be finalising the plans for the<br />

lodge and care facility, which is really exciting.<br />

“ Being a small boutique village we still want to provide everything at once but it<br />

will be a gradual staged process. Having the temporary lodge has made a big difference<br />

and we have been able to use this for our many functions and, of course, happy hour<br />

or should I say hours. It is just a great place to draw everyone together and the mix<br />

of age groups makes this really dynamic. ”<br />
