The weather gods smiled down upon the Hororata Highland Games again on Saturday as Darfield’s Julia Tully 

took out the women’s kilted mile race. Thousands turned out for the annual event in perfect conditions at 

Hororata Domain. The Selwyn Times Kilted Mile attracted 40 keen athletes, who each had to eat a pie and down a 

fizzy drink during the race. Andrew Berry won in the men’s race, while Ewan Bawden took out the youth race.

Future of 

committees 

in doubt as 

review gets 

under way 

• By Devon Bolger 

COMMUNITY committees across 

the district will be the focus of a 

major council review over the next 

six months. 

The review will look at a 

range of factors – including the 

structure, role, focus and number 

of community 

committees – 

to see where 

improvements 

could be made. 

This may mean 

some community 

committees are 

amalgamated, 

Deputy Mayor 

Malcolm Lyall 

Malcolm Lyall said. 

“I think we will be investigating 

the possibility of amalgamating 

some of them. We do have a lot 

of committees, and some of them 

don’t have a very big workload and 

perhaps we can take the pressure 

off some of the volunteers by 

having combined committees that 

have a bit more to do,” he said. 

There are currently 55 

community committees, 52 of 

which receive district council 

funding.

A WELL deserved accolade for 

Southbridge rugby stalwart Wayne Palmer 

on page 17 today. 

Life membership has been bestowed on 

Wayne for his sterling work at the club over 

the years. 

He laced up his boots at seven, played on through the grades 

and had more than a decade in the rough and tumble of senior 

club rugby, playing more than 200 games by all accounts. 

The life membership was a complete surprise. 

“I turned up to the AGM and I wasn’t dressed right at all, I 

had my jandals on,” he said. 

“It was a bit of a bloody shock actually.” 

Palmer credits a supportive family: “They’ve been the ones 

who have allowed me to spend as much time as I do at the club.”

LINCOLN 

Council likely 

to borrow up to $50 million 


THE DISTRICT council is 

expecting its borrowing to hit 

$50 million by the end of the 

financial year to help fund 

the large number of planned 

projects. 

Borrowing currently sits at 

$15.2 million but in about February 

next year that will begin 

to increase. 

Corporate services group 

manager Greg Bell said the 

district council is implementing 

the new financial strategy now 

because of its large capital project 

programme. 

“Much of the programme is 

funded through rates but we are 

spreading the cost over 20 years 

by borrowing money. We aren’t 

expecting this year’s ratepayers to 

pay for everything because these 

facilities will last a long time. 

“If we tried to fund it all very 

quickly people now would be 

paying a lot more and people in 

the future will benefit so the aim 

is to have that equity over time,” 

he said. 

Mr Bell said there will not be 

any rates increases because of the 

borrowing and projections show 

expected rates revenue over the 

next 20 years will cover the cost 

of it. 

In July the district council 

received the highest credit rating 

of any council in New Zealand 

after being awarded an AA+ by 

ratings agency Fitch Ratings. 

The district council’s budgeted 

interest rate for borrowing for 

the 2019/20 financial year is five 

per cent. 

Mr Bell said they are expecting 

to start borrowing early next 

year because the cashflow forecast 

shows that’s when expenditure 

will outweigh revenue. 

“That means there’s more 

going out than coming in so we 

need to borrow and that is essentially 

due to the large capital 

projects that are starting over 

the next few months. 

“It is worth doing because the 

service benefits of these projects 

are going to be transformational 

for the district,” he said. 

PLAN: The 

district council 

is expecting 

expenditure 

to start 

outweighing 

revenue early 

next year and 

that is when the 

borrowing will 

begin. 

The planned projects 

include: 

• The $22 million Te Ara Ātea 

library and Rolleston town centre 

development 

• The $21 million Foster Park 

indoor courts 

• The $13.8 million Selwyn 

Aquatic Centre extension 

• The $15 million health hub 

• The $5 million Shands and 

Blakes Rd intersection upgrade 

• The $12 million Rolleston 

town centre roading projects.

Speed limits 

to be reduced 

on nine roads 

NINE ROADS in the district 

will be reduced to 60km/h due to 

reviews by the Christchurch City 

Council. 

Speed limits will drop from 

80km/h to 60km/h on Hodgens 

Rd, and sections of Marshs, 

Springs, Shands, Longstaffs and 

Whincops Rds. 

Sections of Old West Coast 

Rd and Waddington Rd will be 

lowered from 70km/h. 

A district council spokesman 

said the changes bring the 

speeds into line with limits set 

by Christchurch City Council 

and align with the Christchurch 

Southern Motorway extension. 

“The Christchurch City Council 

has been reviewing the speed limits 

on the fringes of the city out 

to the Selwyn District. This was 

mainly to reduce the speed limit 

down to 60km/h on these roads 

and included the boundary roads. 

These changes were consulted on 

and approved so they have been 

included for approval by the district 

council,” he said. 

The new speed limits were 

approved at a meeting last 

week and will take effect from 

December 1.

Highland Games draws in crowds 

THE NINTH annual Hororata 

Highland Games has once again 

been enjoyed by thousands of 

visitors and competitors. 

Australian heavy events 

competitor Tim O’Shea said: 

“For all of the heavy competitors, 

Hororata is our favourite 

Highland Games. The event itself 

is run so well and the atmosphere 

is amazing. What really makes it 

for us as competitors are the people 

who open their homes and 

welcome us to their community. 

It is a privilege to be part of this, 

we are so lucky,” he said. 

The Oceania heavy championship 

was won by Australian Terry 

Sparks in his first appearance at 

the games. 

The amateur women’s championship 

was claimed by Siositina 

Hakeai in her first Highland 

Games competition, which is a 

bit different to her usual discus 

events. 

Connor O’Brian took out the 

amateur men’s championship. 

The band of the day went to the 

grade 4 Canterbury Caledonian 

Society’s Pipe Band and the 

champion highland dancer was 

Abby Smith.

Review to focus on committees 

•From page 1 

Collectively the committees 

received $389,481 in funding 

from the district council in the 

2018/19 financial year. 

A district council spokesman 

said a number of the 15 

incorporated societies, 13 of 

which also receive district 

council funding, deliver 

some of the 

functions that 

community 

committees 

do. However, 

the review will 

not cover the 

societies. 

“The district 

Rupert 

Tipples 

council noted 

that while 

committees 

have added real benefit to the 

district over many years, it’s time 

to look at the best model for the 

future which ensures effective 

community and volunteer 

participation, lifts community 

engagement in decision-making 

and allows councillors to be 

more available to meet with, 

listen and discuss matters that 

affect the local community” he 

said. 

Springston community 

committee chairman Rupert 

Tipples said he had not been 

told anything about the review 

directly. 

“Some information could 

have ended up in my council 

email address, but I have trouble 

accessing it. I do wish we had 

been told,” he said. 

Whitecliffs township and 

domain committee chairwoman 

Jodie Thompson said she only 

found out about the review on 

Sunday. 

“I don’t know much about it 

to be honest. I was only made 

aware of it on Sunday night, 

which feels like quite short 

notice,” she said. 

Said Springfield township 

committee chairman Graeme 

Dawson: “I don’t have any strong 

feelings about the review. I think 

our committee will still stand 

after it.” 

At a meeting last week, the 

district council agreed to not 

discharge the committees which 

would normally happen after an 

election. 

Said the report presented 

to district councillors: “The 

community subcommittees of 

council will not be discharged 

until the revised policy on 

FUTURE: 

Over the next 

six months 

the district 

council will 

be assessing 

the role 

of the 52

community 

committees. 

community subcommittees is 

adopted by council, within the 

first half of 2020.” 

Said the district council 

spokesperson: “While the review 

is undertaken committees 

will continue to operate as 

normal, with the same delegated 

responsibilities. They are not 

required to hold triennial 

elections. However, groups are 

free to hold elections if they 

wish.” 

The review will include hall, 

reserve, township and pool 

community subcommittees. 

Salary rises 

approved for 

councillors 


NEW BASE salaries for district 

councillors and the deputy mayor 

were voted through unanimously 

at a meeting last week. 

The base salary for councillors is 

now $42,789, which is an increase 

of $3700 from last year when it was 

$39,089. 

The district council also approved 

a $51,342 salary for Deputy 

Mayor Malcolm Lyall. 

That is an increase of $6770 from 

his salary of $44,572 last year. 

When the report was presented 

at the meeting, there was no discussion 

and a vote was quickly 

conducted to which no councillors 

opposed. 

The Remuneration Authority has 

allocated $479,232 for the total remuneration 

of the district council. 

All of the money in the pool must 

be spent and additional pay can be 

allocated to extra responsibilities, 

such as the deputy mayor or chairs 

and deputy chairs of committees. 

Mayor Sam Broughton’s salary is 

excluded from the pool and is paid 

separately by the Remuneration 

Authority. 

Mr Broughton said the increase 

in salary is due to the increase in 

population.

Lincoln company 

takes top business award 

LINCOLN BUSINESS Bento 

Ninja has been recognised as the 

overall winner for the Selwyn 

Responsible Business Awards. 

The company makes 

eco-friendly and stylish stainless 

steel reusable products. 

The Lincoln Envirotown 

Trust held its awards which 

celebrate the commitment to 

environmental sustainability 

and community involvement by 

businesses in the district. 

This year more than 70 

businesses were visited by a 

co-ordinator and received 

awards ranging from bronze to 

platinum along with feedback 

letters suggesting possible future 

developments. 

The event was held at the 

Lincoln Event Centre and the 

trophies were presented by 

councillor Debra Hasson. 

Trust chairman Dave Fitzjohn 

said: “The generous support of 

the Selwyn District Council 

made the night possible and 

we are always impressed by 

the number of businesses 

who voluntarily undertake to 

discuss their initiatives and 

actions towards becoming more 

sustainable and engaging with 

their communities.” 

He said Bento Ninja won the 

top award because it provides 

many sustainable products and 

their willingness to repair rather 

than discard. 

The trophy, a sculpture of a 

fantail, was gifted by the Lincoln 

Community Committee and

A crowd of about 12,500 turned out to Foster Park in Rolleston on 

Saturday night for the annual fireworks event. It was the fourth year 

the event had been held at the park instead of Rolleston Reserve. It 

cost about $75,000 to stage the event. Rolleston fireworks organising 

committee chair Chris O’Brien said they were delighted with the turnout 

and will be looking to make next year’s event even better.

Spooktacular sleepyhead 

HOW MANY people out there 

did anything for Halloween last 

week? 

Last year we didn’t do anything, 

but as Vittoria is a bit 

bigger now I wanted to at least 

try take her door-to-door in 

costume. 

You know, to get lollies for me. 

Got to keep her health in mind. 

I formulated a plan with my 

cousin – we would take her 

along the other flats on the 

property before heading over to 

a kids’ Halloween party at the 

Phillipstown Community Hub. 

On Wednesday night Vittoria 

and I had stayed in Waikuku 

Beach. Normally, I would have 

spent the next day out there, 

taking Vittoria to the beach or 

playground, before heading 

home after her noon nap. 

However, this time after a 

morning beach walk, I’d got a 

real bee in my bonnet on the idea 

of getting her home before her 

nap. Why? No idea. To see if I 

could, I guess? 

Even though I knew I would 

be cutting it fine, I raced about 

gathering up our things – forgetting 

a bunch in the process – and 

rushed out the door with a pretty 

lively, smiley toddler. 

As we made our way along 

State Highway 1, Vittoria babbled 

on about the things going by, 

sang along to some songs and 

•Former Star Media journalist Matt Salmons has become a 

stay-at-home dad. We follow his journey weekly 

TRICK OR TREAT: The wee 

pumpkin collecting lollies 

along a block of flats. 

made positive noises that my 

flimsy plan was going to work. 

Midway along Marshland Rd 

the wheels fell off (figuratively) 

when she yawned, got comfy and 

promptly fell asleep. 

No toddler ever has had a normal 

nap after a 20min car nap, so 

by the time my cousin arrived a 

few hours later, Vittoria had had 

about enough of the day. 

In spite of some whining and 

grumping as I got her costume 

together, she graciously let me 


VITTORIA 

& Matt 

put the massively cute pumpkin 

petticoat on. She seemed to 

get a positivity boost when she 

realised the point of the costume 

was to go outside and doorknock 

for lollies. 

While she was happy, she was 

still bone tired by the time we 

arrived at the community hub. 

She managed to be excited to see 

all the other kids, stare in amazement 

at some of great costumes 

on display, listen to some of the 

classic kids’ Halloween anthems 

(Ghostbusters of course) and 

enjoy some popcorn. 

But it didn’t last long. Less 

then 10 minutes after arriving 

she’d burst into tears after briefly 

losing sight of me,was not at 

all interested in joining in any 

games and had attempted to just 

kind of walk home twice. 

Honestly, nothing is cuter than 

a tiny pumpkin-person boldy 

just strolling off. But the hint was 

dropped and I decided to throw 

in the towel when she started 

almost nodding off in my arms. 

I think I’ll avoid any racing 

against nap times in future.

Palmer earns life membership 


NO ONE was more surprised by 

Wayne Palmer’s life membership 

of Southbridge Rugby Club than 

the man himself. 

“It was a bit of a bloody shock 

actually,” he said. 

“I turned up to the AGM and I 

wasn’t dressed right at all, I had 

my jandals on.” 

Palmer started at the club at 

seven-years-old in 1971 and 

worked his way through the 

grades and played more than a 

decade of senior rugby starting 

at 1982. 

“Back then we never kept 

count of the games but I think 

we all agreed I played more than 

200 senior games. 

“I played all over the loose 

forwards, usually No 8 and spent 

a bit of time at hooker.” 

He said winning the Coleman 

Shield in his first two seasons 

was a highlight and then he was 

manager of the Southbridge 

team and watched his son Luke 

lift the trophy earlier this year. 

Palmer said he was fortunate to 

have a supportive family who were 

just as keen on rugby as he is. 

“They’ve been the ones who 

have allowed me to spend as 

much time as I do at the club. In 

fact I think they wait for winter 

so they can get me out of the 

house,’’ he said 

The 55-year-old has held 

almost every position in the club 

over the years. 

He was club president in 

FATHER AND SON: Luke (left) and Wayne Palmer after the annual Southbridge married versus 

singles game. Wayne was awarded life membership of the club last week. 

1999 and 2000 and has coached 

numerous JAB teams as well as 

the division two team to victory 

in 2016. 

He still laces up the boots for 

the golden oldies team and the 

annual married versus singles 

game. 

“I’ve been bloody lucky with 

all the teams I’ve coached we’ve 

had good players and I’ve mostly 

been in the play-offs each year. 

“Last year, the div 2 boys were 

short of players and I thought 

about going home and getting 

my boots. 

“The brain is willing, the body 

not so much. 

“The people in the club are extremely 

passionate and there’s a 

good culture across the club and 

it certainly keeps me motivated.” 

Palmer said with the club’s 

150th just seven years away, he 

had no plans of slowing down and 

even had to handle a joke from a 

fellow Southbridge stalwart. 

“Michael Sheat asked how 

long I was going to stick around 

and I said for as long as he keeps 

playing. 

“I’ll stick around for as long as 

I can because I love it.” 

SPORT 

Rain washes 

out rep games 


CHRIS WARNER’S century 

for Canterbury Country A was 

the highlight of two washed-out 

representative games on Sunday. 

The opener helped Canterbury 

Country A to 290 for 8 from their 

50 overs against Mid Canterbury 

at Rangiora’s Main Power Oval. 

Warner hit 106 off 138 balls 

which included 16 boundaries. 

The rain arrived during the 

innings break and the match was 

abandoned. 

The Canterbury Country 

under-17 cricket team were not 

able to take advantage of a strong 

bowling effort thanks to the 

weather in their game against 

South Canterbury at Weedons 

Domain. 

Having been asked to bowl, the 

Canterbury Country team got 

stuck into their work, bowling the 

visitors out for 140. 

Opening bowler, George Gunn 

took three for 29 from his 10 overs 

including the wicket of South 

Canterbury’s top-scorer Flynn 

Linton for 35. 

Canterbury Country were 20 

for one when play was abandoned 

due to rain. 

The team will play Mid 

Canterbury on Sunday.

Selwyn Times 

Council leads the way in 

commitment to 

accessibility for all 

The Council has laid a marker for all Selwyn residents as the first local government authority to 

produce its own accessibility charter. 

Mayor Sam Broughton signed the Te Arataki Taero Kore Accessible Selwyn Charter at a ceremony 

last week attended by disability groups and organisations. 

Anne Hawker, Principal Disability Advisor to the Ministry of Social Development told the audience 

of around 50 people it was a first for New Zealand. 

“You are the first local government authority to sign an accessibility charter,” she told the 

audience at the signing. 

The Charter is based on the Ministry of Social Development’s Accessibility Charter, and along with 

the associated Accessibility Action Plan is the beginning of an ongoing commitment to all Selwyn 

residents, Mayor Sam Broughton says. 

“It’s a start – we’re not going to be perfect at the very beginning, but by 2025 we want to be well 

down the road and by 2030 this will look different again. It is a document that has been designed 

for Selwyn and needs to be flexible to meet the needs of our community. Diversity strengthens our 

community and this document is part of the Council’s commitment to lead on issues of making 

Selwyn a great place to live for people of all abilities.” 

The Council also values feedback on accessibility issues, Mr Broughton told the representatives 

from IHC, Selwyn Launch Group, Waitaha School, Rolleston Star Jam, New Zealand Disability 

Advisory Group, Deaf Aotearoa, Brackenridge, New Zealand Sign Language Interpreters and 

Aspire Canterbury. 

The signing ceremony opened with a performance by Jolt Dance Group – a group supporting 

opportunities for everyone to dance and find their creative voice. 

The charter commits the Council to working in the areas of leadership, education, technical 

expertise and health and wellbeing. It builds on accessibility work such as equipment and classes 

at the Selwyn Aquatic Centre to assist people with access to the pool and the Rolleston Town 

Centre design which was carried out with advice from accessibility groups. 

Consultation opens on new Springs Reserve 

The Council is planning a new reserve development for the Springs Ward on Birchs Road, Prebbleton, 

and we want to hear what you think. 

Last year we carried out local community consultation and identified a number of elements that 

people were looking for, including off-lead dog areas, diverse play experiences, and safe biking and 

sporting opportunities. 

From this consultation, we’ve put together a draft design and now we want more input from the local 

community. The plan includes pathways, seating and picnic areas, shade trees, a waterway, open grass 

and play spaces, bike tracks, and an off-leash dog exercise area. 

You can have a look through the plan and have your say online at selwyn.govt.nz/birchsrdpark. We will be 

sending out a summary document to some of the surround communities in Prebbleton and Lincoln. 

We also want to know if you have any ideas on what we can name 

the new reserve. 

This park was initially proposed in the Council’s 2015–2025 

Long-Term Plan which was adopted by the Council following public 

consultation in 2015. 

Consultation on this part of the project closes on Friday 13 December. 

A passion for diversity 

Continuing our series celebrating the Faces of Selwyn. 

Visit selwyn.govt.nz/facesofselwyn for the full story. 

Dr Surinder Tandon came to New Zealand to work with textiles and 

developed a passion for weaving communities together. 

Originally from New Delhi, Surinda and his wife Archna moved 

to New Zealand in 1988. He’d just completed his PhD in textile 

engineering and landed a job at the Wool Research Organisation of 

New Zealand (WRONZ) in Lincoln. 

“They were doing a lot of interesting work in textile engineering and 

fabric product development,” he says. 

Combined with his love for cricket, he thought it was the perfect 

opportunity to mix career and sport. 

“But of course, New Zealand is far away from India. It was quite 

new, but it was exciting and challenging.” 

Work colleagues helped him settle and connect with other Indian 

families and he and a group of new migrants from India and formed 

a “potluck social group” to meet up during the weekends for picnics 

and other family activities. 

In 1998, they formed the Indian Social and Cultural Club 

(ISCCNZ)—now the major Indian association in Christchurch—and 

Surinder played an important role in founding Selwyn’s popular 

CultureFest. 

It’s a festival where various ethnic groups can showcase their 

music, dance and food, he says. “Its culture galore!” 

It has become an important vehicle for encouraging social 

inclusion and equality and helping to prevent cultural and ethnic 

divisions, he says. 

He also went on to represent the Indian community on the Christchurch 

Multicultural Council, and has been its president for 10 years. 

“I grew a lot of passion for serving 

ethnic communities. Not just Indian 

communities, but all communities, 

including migrants and refugees.” 

Christchurch has over 180 

ethnicities, he says. 

“I realised that the needs of all 

migrants are the same for settlement, 

such as culture, language barriers, 

employment challenges and 

homesickness, of course.” 

Council building team praised 

The Council’s building team has been praised for its work following 

its accreditation assessment to continue issuing building consents. 

The Council’s building team was congratulated on its processes 

during the accreditation assessment by International Accreditation 

New Zealand (IANZ) which conducts the review on behalf of the 

Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment. The review is 

required by law every two years. 

The IANZ assessors praised the Council for having the best 

complaints process for building practitioners it had seen in the 

country and for its excellent training programme and its ‘continuous 

improvement’ system which regularly audits the team’s work to 

make sure it is up to standard and suggest improvements which 

could be made. 

Council building manager Vanessa Mitchell says the assessment 

was a huge positive for the team managing an extremely high work 

load averaging 200 consents a month and working in one of the 

fastest growing districts in the country. “It takes all of the staff doing 

their work to the highest standards to achieve that compliance 

level. It shows that we can have confidence in the team and that the 

procedures in place are ensuring we run like a well-oiled machine.” 

The process will be completed once three minor issues are 

addressed which the team is already working on. The IANZ 

team found seven general non-compliance issues, four of which 

were addressed immediately. This is an improvement on its last 

assessment in 2017 which found 10 non-compliance issues and 

was alongside some of the best results for Council accreditation 

assessments this year.

Returns and new starts were celebrated at the Council’s monthly citizenship ceremony. 

A group of 31 people from 10 countries stretching from Canada to Kazakhstan took the oath to become 

New Zealanders. 

For Ganga Ram Chapagai, a refugee from Bhutan, who became a citizen with his wife Kamala Rai and 

daughter Srijana Chapagai Bhattarai, the ceremony was the end of a 30 year journey. 

“For 30 years I was without an identity and the government of New Zealand has been so kind to me to 

grant me an identity and I’m really proud to become a Kiwi.” 

For Beatrice Chua, it was a return after her family moved to New Zealand from the Philippines when she 

was seven and later moved back. She returned to New Zealand for university and work and committed 

to making the country her home. 

Among the others who became New Zealanders were Kulmira 

Alieva from Kazakhstan, and Englishmen Patrick Holland and 

Damian Holmes who all married New Zealanders. Mr Holmes 

was among a number of people in the group who first came to 

the country on holiday. 

“I came here nine years ago and loved it, met a girl and I loved 

her and now we have got our own house and little Kiwi. It’s a 

great place and that’s why I wanted to become a Kiwi.” 

Daniel Dilkes, originally from Canada echoed the words of many 

of the new citizens who described finding a sense of home here. 

“I came here for a holiday in 1996 and got a job, years later I’ve 

lived and worked all over this country. It’s a beautiful country, 

I fell in love with it and it’s an absolute honour to become a 

citizen of this country, because it’s my home.”

Lincoln duo set for high school all-star match 


THE BEST secondary school 

basketballers in Canterbury will 

get the chance to impress in the 

boys and girls all-star games 

before the New Zealand Breakers 

play at Horncastle Arena next 

month. 

The Breakers will host the 

South East Melbourne Phoenix 

on December 20. 

Lincoln High School’s Kate 

Herman and Cody Wareham 

will both take part. 

The girls game will tip off at 

2.10pm and the boys at 3.50pm 

followed by the Breakers and 

Phoenix at 7.30pm. 

The high school games come 

after the Thomson and Whelan 

trophy season, as well as strong 

national campaigns where 

Cashmere High School finished 

fourth in the boys competition 

and Christchurch Girls’ High 

School finished eighth in the 

girls grade. 

Organiser, Joe Hammond said 

the plan was to split the squads 

into two even teams to produce 

two even encounters. 

He said squads were picked 

by the top six high school boys 

coaches and former Canterbury 

Wildcats coach Lori McDaniel. 

“It’s been a couple of years 

since the game was held, but I 

think it’s a great way to recognise 

the effort and achievements of 

the players throughout the season,” 

Mr Hammond said. 

There are also plans to 

livestream the two games. 

“The Breakers have said the 

team will try to watch the concluding 

stages of the games so 

hopefully it will give the kids a 

big buzz.”

SELWYN TIMES 

WATCHFUL: Lincoln batsman Liam Robinson pushes forward as Southbrook 

wicket-keeper Gu Mowat watches on at Darfield Domain on Saturday. 

OUT: Edgar Paterson is bowled for one. 

Robson ton lifts Weedons past Cheviot 


AN UNBEATEN 128 from 

Charlie Robson helped lift 

Weedons to a three-wicket win 

over Cheviot in the Canterbury 

Country premier 45-over cricket 

competition on Saturday. 

In other results, Leeston 

Southbridge were able to hold off 

a much improved Darfield by 10 

runs at Darfield Domain. 

Southbrook beat Lincoln by 

four wickets at Southbrook Domain, 

by chasing down Lincoln’s 

198 and Oxford comfortably beat 

Sefton by 102 runs at Pearson 

Park. 

In what was a high-scoring 

sixth round, Weedons looked 

to be up-against it on the new 

Cheviot pitch after wicket-keeper 

batsman Will Hamilton hit 113 

for the hosts. 

He and opener Ted Whelan, 

who made 53, put on 147 runs 

for the second wicket. 

They were the main contributors 

as Cheviot scored 236 for six 

from their 45 overs. 

Jack Henderson was the pick 

of the Weedons bowlers, taking 

three for 49 from his nine overs. 

At 40 for two the chase looked 

to be getting away from the visitors 

until Robson came to the 

crease. 

He hit 11 fours and four sixes 

POWER: Adam Coleman (above) looks to attack. (Right) – Liam Robinson looks for a second run. 

PHOTOS: KAREN CASEY 

on his way to a match-winning 

128 off just 114 balls. 

He put on 62 for the third 

wicket with opener James Richards, 

who added 43. 

Weedons got home with 10 

balls to spare. 

Leeston-Southbridge held their 

nerve against Darfield in a tight 

encounter. 

Leeston-Southbridge’s opening 

stand of 82 between Ben Chamberlain 

(37) and Joel Harden (45), 

who was playing his last game 

before moving to Wellington, 

proved the difference. 

While the defending champions 

lost wickets consistently after 

that, they were able to scramble 

to 156 for nine, in spite of Tom 

Innes taking five for 37 from his 

eight overs. 

An unbeaten 52 from wicketkeeper, 

Alister Collins kept 

Darfield in the hunt, he just did 

not get the support he needed 

from the other end as the asking 

rate kept creeping up and they 

eventually fell 10 runs short. 

Leeston-Southbridge captain 

Toby Doyle said his batsmen 

found ways to get out and left 

probably 30 runs on the field as 

a result. 

“The pitch was quite up-anddown 

but we restricted them 

well with the ball and got the key 

wicket of Henry Shipley.” 

Darfield captain Mike Pauling 

said his team did not pace their 

innings well and did not get the 

contributions they needed from 

the top four. 

He gave credit to Innes for his 

bowling into a stiff breeze. 

SPORT 

Lincoln had handy contributions 

from their top order in 

making 198 all out against 

Southbrook. 

Adam Coleman made 46, Nico 

Lerm made 43 while the only 

contribution of substance from 

the lower-order was No 9 Blake 

de Haan who made 39 off 25. 

An unbeaten seventh-wicket 

partnership of 103 between 

Southbrook’s Jack Boyle (78) and 

Luan Blom (58) took the hosts 

to the target when they were in 

trouble at 99 for six. 

Southbrook got home with 

more than nine overs to spare. 

There is no premier cricket 

on Show Weekend, with the 

twenty20 competition beginning 

on November 23. 

Results: 

Leeston-Southbridge beat 

Darfield by 10 runs; Southbrook 

beat Lincoln by four wickets; 

Weedons beat Cheviot by three 

wickets; Oxford beat Sefton by 

102 runs. 

Points: 

Southbrook 36, Leeston- 

Southbridge 32, Oxford 28, 

Sefton 24, Cheviot 24, Weedons 

24, Lincoln 16, Darfield 8.

News 

Plenty happening at 

West Melton School 

The annual West Melton’s Got Talent Show 

was another hit for the year at West Melton 

School. 

Competition was fierce, with many 

competitors showing remarkable dance and 

musical skills. There were plenty of laughs 

and ‘aww’ moments too, and the judges had a 

difficult job making their final decisions. 

The winners were: Juniors (Years 1-4) – 

Alex, singing, Seniors (Years 5-8) – Katie, 

contortionist/floor music 

Recently the school organised a ‘Mufti for 

Nora’ day. This was a Student Exec initiative 

to raise funds for Nora, a Clearview Primary 

School learner who has been fighting 

hepatoblastoma, a rare liver cancer. 

To get into the World Cup spirit, the day 

had a sporting theme, with $830 being raised 

for Nora. 

West Melton School’s top athletes recently 

competed in the Years 5-8 school athletics 

competition. The winners were: 

Junior Girls Athletics Cup Champ - Skye 

Junior Boys Athletics Cup Champ - Ollie 

Senior Girls Athletics Cup Champ - Nikita 

Senior Boys Athletics Cup Champ - Brooklyn

Shi and Codie Taylor are raising awareness for rural male mental health with their 

T-shirts. 

Students create T-shirts 

to raise rural mental 

health awareness 


A GROUP of Lincoln 

High School students have 

teamed up with Swanndri 

to raise awareness for rural 

male mental health. 

Year 13 students Danielle 

McKendry, Daniel Blaikie, 

Matthew Bowen, James 

Shi, and Codie Taylor 

started the business Convalescence 

as part of the 

young enterprise scheme. 

The group is selling T- 

shirts, designed to support 

and raise awareness about 

mental health in the rural 

sector. 

Communications director 

Codie Taylor said the 

group came up with the 

idea while brainstorming 

at the start of the year. 

“After some time we had 

the idea of creating a product 

that can help the rural 

community in some way as 

they are such a huge part 

of our economy and identity 

as New Zealanders. 

“So our goals quickly 

shifted from making a 

profit for ourselves to making 

a profit that we can 

donate and use to benefit 

the community. 

The team had the idea 

of a T-shirt sharing a supportive 

message with a 

stylish design. 

“This is something we 

thought we could achieve 

on our own, but could 

be greatly improved and 

much more popular with 

the help of an iconic kiwi 

brand like Swanndri” 

They sent a proposal to 

Swanndri in March and 

received a response saying 

it was happy to help. 

Profits from the T-shirts 

will be donated to the Will 

to Live Foundation. 

Codie said the team is 

happy with how the T- 

shirts came out. 

“We feel as though the 

final product we achieved 

is one to be proud of. It 

represents and portrays 

such a strong and powerful 

meaning for the issue 

of male mental health, 

and we feel as though it 

gains the awareness that 

is needed in a fashionable 

and unforgettable way. 

•The T-shirts are 

available at www.

Vehicle servicing assists 

safe summer motoring 

With the mad rush of Christmas and 

holiday motoring coming on, you want a 

reliable vehicle and one which will not put 

the family at risk. 

A vehicle’s safety depends on it being 

well maintained with regular servicing a 

critical part of this equation. It may avoid 

being stranded on the roadside waiting for 

a tow truck because a part or the engine 

failed, something which could have been 

picked up during a service or vehicle 

check. 

One may put off servicing when 

expenses are high yet the difference 

between a vehicle which is up to standard 

and one which is not, is significant. For 

example, worn brake pads or tyre tread 

mean it takes longer to stop with more 

potential for an impact crash. 

The perception newer vehicles require 

less servicing is incorrect. Things can just 

as easily go wrong whether a newer or 

older vehicle. 

“While newer vehicles only require an 

annual warrant of fitness they still need 

Rolleston Diesel & Petrols owner, 

Simon Wilson. 

regular servicing,” advises Simon Wilson, 

owner of Rolleston Diesel & Petrols. 

Simon reminds that a year is a long time 

and regular motoring takes its toll on a 

vehicle’s engine and parts. 

At Rolleston Diesel & Petrols more 

vehicles have been coming in for repairs 

where regular servicing might have 

averted a problem. Routine maintenance 

can pick up a potential issue early. It might 

be as simple as ensuring there is sufficient 

lubricant where needed, replacing worn 

blades, ensuring a safe tyre tread, or 

picking up on a tell-tale sign of an oil 

leak, essential to prevent extensive engine 

damage. 

A WOF inspection is a structural 

examination where brakes, suspension and 

steering are checked. It is the minimum 

level of inspection and a must for Selwyn 

motorists who generally travel further, 

more regularly. Even short distance driving 

affects a vehicle as it does not get the 

chance to warm up, putting strain on the 

motor while increasing fuel consumption 

and making motoring less economical. 

Simon and Hayden at Rolleston Diesel 

& Petrols are always happy to advise 

customers where a problem might be 

perceived. They can check your vehicle 

and look after its regular servicing, 

reminding you when the WOF is due. 

Rolleston Diesel & Petrols is a wellappointed 

repair and service centre 

equipped with the latest in diagnostic 

equipment. They maintain and repair cars 

through to business vehicles, whether a 

ute, 4WD, van, light commercial (up to 

12 tonne), motorhome, bus, motorcycle, 

jet ski, boat, ride-on lawnmower or horse 

float. They use good quality components, 

oils and original specifically manufactured 

equipment parts. As members of the 

Motor Trade Association you are assured 

of quality workmanship.

In the

with intelligro 

General rule of thumb in Canterbury is that you can 

plant your tomatoes outside from Show weekend. You 

can get on to this task now and if you have started 

them inside they will be keen to get into a bigger pot or 

garden bed. 

As tomatoes require a lot of nutrition of grow, pop in 

some tomatoes fertiliser before planting and then feed 

every 4 weeks until the season ends. Once your plant 

is in fruit make sure you cover them as birds just love 

those big plump red tomatoes as much as you do. Cut 

off their laterals (these are the bits that grow out from 

the main stems), as this keeps the plant healthier and 

the nutrients go into producing the main fruit. 

whAt’S hot thiS Month? 

» We still have a variety of seedlings available and 

ready to be planted out. 

» A great range of seeds ready to be raised – a great 

activity for kids and exciting to watch as they begin 

to grow. 

» Raised garden boxes available in a variety of styles, 

sizes and types. Check them out in store. 

» Neat new products that will be great for Christmas 

presents! Check out our Facebook page this month 

for more information on what we have. 

wAtering PlAn 

Make sure you establish 

a good watering plan 

for your plants. Veggie 

plants can bolt to seed if 

they feel that they might 

die and a lack of water 

is one of the leading 

causes of this. Make 

sure you water in the 

early morning or evening 

when it is cooler, and 

make sure you give it a 

good long soak. 

Remember that pots 

and containers dry out 

a bit faster so keep an 

extra eye on these. Grab a handy 

moisture metre if you want some help 

in tracking if your plants need more or 

less water. We have these available in 

store and online. 

It is all go in the garden, and 

with Show Weekend coming 

up there is plenty of time to 

get those tasks done!

Spring brings the risk of catching Legionnaires Disease if 

you don’t handle potting mixes and compost correctly. 

The bacteria that cause Legionnaires Disease are present 

naturally in the environment and there is no method 

available to eliminate the bacteria. So, we must work with 

protecting ourselves from the harmful effects of these 

bacteria, in much the same way as we protect ourselves 

from the damage caused to us by exposure to the sun. Below 

are some precautions you can take to reduce the risk of 

contracting Legionnaires. 

» Open bags with a sharp 

knife – away from the 

face - in open spaces, 

not in enclosed areas like 

sheds or greenhouses 

» Remember to use gloves 

and masks when handling 

the mix 

» Dampen any dry mix – 

being care not to inhale 

dry, dusty mix 

» Store bags out of direct 

sunlight 

» Always wash your hands 

after gardening, and 

before eating or drinking 

If you develop any flu-like symptoms after working in the 

garden head to your Dr immediately. Make sure you let them 

know you have been gardening and need to get tested for 

Legionnaires. 

If you have any queries about Legionnaires, check out the 

CDHB website, or email us at info@igro.co.nz

Gardening 

Adopt healthy garden practices 

YOUR GARDEN should soon 

be looking lovely, with flowers 

and foliage adding colour, scent 

and depth to your garden, 

not to mention the start of 

some summer crops such as 

strawberries, beans and lettuce. 

For a healthy garden, and in 

particular vegetable, always try to 

have good garden practices. This 

includes garden hygiene such 

as cleaning up any dead leaves 

or foliage and regular weeding, 

which helps discourage pests and 

diseases. 

Fruit trees are in full growth 

mode now and it’s worthwhile 

applying a side dressing of fruit 

tree fertiliser, especially with 

young trees. Water deeply when 

required to help establish strong 

root systems. Mulch around trees 

to reduce water loss and suppress 

weeds. 

As gardens reduce in size, 

containers on decks and balconies 

assume greater importance and 

can be used for growing herbs, 

mini-vegetables or providing a 

splash of colour when planted 

with summer annuals. 

Being in a confined space, 

potted plants do deplete the soil 

more quickly of nutrients, so feed 

them approximately every two to 

three weeks with fertiliser, and 

keep them well watered. 

Summer flowering annuals 

should be in vigorous growth now 

and look stunning in the garden. 

They include alyssum, ageratum, 

aster, candytuft, cornflower, cosmos, 

marigold, nemesia, phlox, 

portulacas, petunias, salvias, 

strawflower and zinnias. Keep 

deadheading (removal of finished 

flowers) to promote continuous 

flowering. 

For ornamental trees and 

shrubs, fertilise them regularly 

and mulch to reduce water loss 

over hot dry summer months 

and to aid weed growth. Give 

them a summer prune; especially 

ornamental trees to help a strong 

framework for later growth. 

Don’t forget to mulch your garden 

if you haven’t already. Here 

in the South Island try and have 

this done by the end of the month 

now that the soil has warmed up. 

Mulching is the process of covering 

the soil with organic matter to 

reduce water loss, add nutrients 

NUTRIENTS: If you are 

planting trees apply plenty of 

mulch and use it around other 

plants. Strawberries should 

now be starting to ripen. 

and help with weed control. 

Even if you are the most handsoff 

gardener this is the most 

important task to do, especially 

during the summer months. It’s 

vital in maintaining a healthy 

garden, helps protect plants from 

drying out and regulates soil 

temperatures. 

Apply a layer of mulch around 

plants, trees, and especially pots. 

As organic mulch breaks down 

over time it improves soil quality 

and structure by encouraging 

micro-organisms and worm 

activity.

Haval H2 – SUV that won’t break the bank 

HAVAL HAS only been in the 

Kiwi marketplace for a couple 

of years but already it has made 

quite an impression, I’ve seen a 

lot of the brand on Christchurch 

roads and the motoring public are 

certainly aware of its presence. 

Strictly speaking, Haval 

is not new; it’s a subsidiary 

company of the Chinese Great 

Wall conglomerate and the 

nameplate is dedicated to sport 

utility vehicles only. That’s no 

surprise as the global market has 

an insatiable appetite for SUVs 

and China will capitalise on that 

demand. 

Haval is represented here in 

three body styles, effectively small 

to large. This evaluation focuses on 

the entry-level model, the H2. 

The Haval H2 is the car that will 

get you into the brand without 

breaking the bank. It is available 

here in two specifications, 

effectively low and high grade. The 

entry-level model is listed at just 

$25,990, while an extra $2000 will 

buy you leather trim (heated front 

seats, also electrically adjustable), 

dual zone climate control, uprated 

audio and a few other healthy 

specification items. 

The test car was the upspec 

H2, and those features sit over 

and above what could well be 

Motoring 

Ross Kiddie 

considered good specification in 

the first instance. There’s a raft of 

inclusions even in the standard 

model, such as keyless entry and 

ignition, sunroof, cruise control, 

tyre pressure monitoring and 

Isofix child seat tethers. This last 

feature is part of a substantial 

safety package that has earned 

the H2 a five-star Australasian 

New Car Assessment Program 

rating. That being the case, you 

know Haval has been proactive in 

building safety into its models. 

Under the bonnet sits a 

turbocharged 1.5-litre fourcylinder 

engine and it drives 

through a traditional six-speed 

automatic gearbox. 

Haval claims 110kW (5600rpm) 

and 210Nm (2200-4500rpm) 

power outputs, and if you look at 

the areas where those figures are 

supplied you easily come to the 

conclusion that the makers have 

put a lot of development work 

into 

the driveline so that it works with 

a broad flow of energy. 

It is also an engine that works 

sweetly. Well, that’s no surprise, 

at 1497cc there’s not a lot of 

reciprocating mass so it works 

quietly and with fluid turbo 

boost. There’s no lag, and the 

engine management protocols 

HAVAL H2: Part of a comprehensive range of models from 

Chinese conglomerate Great Wall. 

work in harmony with the sixspeeder 

so that gear changes are 

instant and structured so that 

respectable acceleration can be 

gleaned. 

On that subject, the H2 will 

reach 100km/h from a standstill 

in 10.5sec and will make 120km/h 

from 80km/h in 6.2sec. 

There are three drive modes, 

all self explanatory – eco, normal 

and snow. I chose normal mode 

for most of my evaluation drive, 

however, if you are conscious 

about fuel use, eco mode will dull 

throttle response. 

Unlike its bigger stablemates, 

some of which have four-wheeldrive, 

the H2 is a front-wheeldrive 

model only, however, I must 

make mention of the suspension 

engineering. Full marks to 

Haval, the rear end of the H2 

is a fully independent system, 

offering suspension freedom and 

promoting a high degree of both 

handling and in-cabin comfort. 

The spring and damper rates 

are only mildly firmed, but there 

is still just enough damping 

so that gravitational forces are 

arrested when tricky corners are 

encountered. 

I took the test car on the loop 

using some of my favourite high 

country roads and I was hugely 

impressed with its road manners 

and civilised nature. 

It is quiet on the highway 

and steers directly, there’s a lot 

of rubber on the road through 

Korean-made Kumho tyres 

(235/55 x 18in), and feedback 

through the steering is decidedly 

• Price – Haval H2, $27,990 

• Dimensions – Length, 

4335mm; width, 1814mm; 

height, 1695mm 

• Configuration – Fourcylinder, 

front-wheeldrive, 

1497cc, 110kW, 

210Nm, six-speed 

automatic. 

• Performance – 

0-100km/h, 10.5sec 

• Fuel usage – 9l/100km 

informative. 

On my highway loop the 

engine ticks over at just 2000rpm 

at 100km/h and it uses fuel at 

the rate of 6.8-litres per 100km 

(42mpg), which is not too distant 

from the norm for an engine of 

this size. 

My week-long average of 

10l/100km (28mpg) was a little 

on the high side but worked well 

with Haval’s combined cycle 

claim of 9l/100km (31mpg). 

Those figures aren’t outstanding 

given the engine isn’t big, but I 

guess at around 1.5-tonne there is 

a bit of weight to shift. 

Nevertheless, the H2 is an 

impressive vehicle, it is easy to 

drive and offers family-friendly 

ergonomics. 

All too often sport utility 

vehicles are there to tempt, but 

many families simply don’t have 

the cash to get into the perfect 

car. That’s where Haval H2 fits the 

bill well – it is an affordable, nononsense 

wagon.

SELWYN TIMES 

1. PLAN 

Our 5 step process starts with 

an Initial Consultation (Free) 

We are sure you have ideas of what you 

would like in your outdoor space, we are 

here to make it happen. So in the planning 

phase, get your ideas ready for one of our 

team to establish your wants and needs 

and review your current landscape. This 

free consultation is a chance to throw 

around a few ideas and discuss the design 

process. Depending on the nature of the 

job we may be able to skip straight to the 

build stage. 

2. DESIGN 

We work closely with our clients to produce 

outdoor spaces and gardens that incorporate 

the clients wants, personality and style, along 

with all their practical needs. 

You will liaise with a landscape architect. We will look to 

combine your preferences and current landscape with our 

designer’s creativity and expertise to create a concept plan. 

Our Landscape Architects embrace a wide range of styles from 

formal and classical garden design to contemporary and modern 

and New Zealand native. Whatever your needs, we are here to 

accommodate. 

After changes are made (if any) to the concept plan, a planting 

and construction plan will then be drawn up. The planting plan 

details out the species used, locations and quantities for all 

planting in your landscape. The construction plan looks to include 

details and images of the structures to be built. Of course we 

encourage your input here to make sure we can create the perfect 

landscape for you. 

3. BUILD 

Let the fun begin! 

Depending what you decided 

on for the landscaping, this 

is where our hard and soft 

landscaping teams supervised 

by the site foreman and 

project manager, implement 

the landscaping works. You 

just have to sit back, relax 

and watch your landscape be 

transformed.

NEW LISTING 

UNIQUE AND RARE IN THE HEART OF THE TOWNSHIP 

It’s not every day that a property of this scale in the heart of the 

Rolleston township is offered to the market with its “semirural” 

aspect and abundance of options. Set on approximately 

5386m2 of prime real estate the property offers a large five 

bedroom and two living area home with an internal lift option. 

Upstairs you will find the kitchen and dining area along with 

the separate lounge, three bedrooms and one bathroom. 

Downstairs there are two further “large” living spaces which 

you could utilise as bedrooms, offices, or a home gym and there 

is also a modern ensuite and separate laundry. The home has 

been modernised and upgraded over the years with double 

glazing, new bathrooms, interior painting and carpet to name a 

few. The versatile design would be ideal for anyone looking to 

work from home or equally accommodate a large or extended 

family. One of the standout and highly desirable features of this 

property is the extensive four bay shed with its mechanic’s pit 

and mezzanine floors. Rarely do we see sheds of this calibre 

and scale on residential blocks in Rolleston. Other features of 

the property include an indoor/inground concrete pool which 

could potentially be transformed into a large glass house facility. 

Overall this is a special property that presents many options and 

a discerning buyer will see the opportunities here. Please call 

Jackie for an appointment to view.

[Edition datE] 

A happy healthy home 

More than ever, we now require our 

homes to be a sanctuary - a primate haven 

where the cares and pressures of the world 

do not intrude. The home should be an 

enveloping, warm and creative environment 

where family members of all ages feel 

relaxed and safe. 

The longer you live in your home, the 

more likely you are to feel in sync with it. 

As the seasons come and go you’ll have 

got to know which rooms are sunny and 

which ones need brightening. 

You’ll have noted areas prone to damp. 

You’ll have observed where different family 

members like to spend their time and why. 

You might have come to the conclusion 

that major changes are required to make 

your home as healthy as possible, or perhaps 

you’ve concluded that a few simple tweaks 

will do the trick. Either way, good planning 

is essential, so take your time, write lots of 

lists and do your research thoroughly. 

MATERIALS 

The ‘make-do-and-mend’ culture 

that has grown during the recession 

places emphasis on the satisfaction that 

can be found in incorporating natural 

materials with vintage items. Pieces of 

driftwood, collections of shells, that lovely 

moss-covered garden bench or a ‘cleverly’ 

revived piece of furniture all have their place 

in the healthy home and its surroundings. 

This trend steers away from plastics and 

synthetic materials. 

HEATING AND VENTILATION 

A home needs to be cool in summer, 

with plenty of natural ventilation, and 

warm in winter. Traditional open fires are 

being phased out and home owners are 

discovering the joys of installing modern 

wood burners, using gas for heating or 

installing a heat pump. All these options are 

healthy - technology has come a long way 

and most choices will see you saving money 

in the long run. 

STORAGE 

While a minimalist style might be fine for 

single people or couples without kids, when 

the patter of tiny feet comes along, good 

storage is going to be vital at every stage of 

a child’s life - be they babies or teens - they 

come with clutter. The more you can contain 

that clutter the better in terms of both your 

mental health and general safety. 

There are any number of options available, 

from professionally designed cupboards 

and wardrobes, to the simple lidded plastic 

boxes you can buy at chain stores. While 

some people claim they thrive in a messy 

environment. I know from experience that a 

lovely, orderly home is good for the soul. 

COLOUR 

Choosing the 

right colours 

for your home 

can make a big 

difference. Small, 

dark rooms 

can be opened 

up and made 

brighter simply 

by choosing the 

right paint. If 

you can afford an 

interior designer 

or colour 

consultant to 

help, I do advise 

it. Today’s 

homes tend to 

be more open 

plan, so choose a palette of two or three 

basic colours and use them throughout to 

achieve cohesion and harmony.

A large, quality home sited in a private and established 

5021m 2 park-like se ting in the sought after Claremont 

Estate on the boundary of Christchurch City. 

The home features four bedr oms (master with 

en suite and walk-in robe), open-plan kitchen, dining 

and living along with formal dining, lounge and 

conservatory. Great ind or outd or flow to a large 

sheltered deck set in sprawling lawns and easy care 

gardens with automated watering. Triple car garaging, 

security gates, ducted heating, solar energy and 

security system are just a few of the many extras on 

offer with this property. There is a separate standalone 

spacious office/studio that gives options for 

those who require a dedicated work from home space 

or alternatively, r om for a dependant relative. 

Set amongst other quality homes on larger sections, 

this property maintains a semi-rural f el whilst being 

a short, easy commute into the city or ou to Ro leston.

Your guide to Show Homes & New Sections 

in the Selwyn District 

An ideal location 

Copper Ridge has a peaceful setting. 

Right: Sangeeta 

and Bimlesh with 

their daughter 

and son. 

Below: Ramesh 

Kumar with his 

daughter and 

mother. 

Halswell’s new Copper Ridge housing estate has been 

proving popular. Around a third of the planned 106 lots 

have already sold. Title has been issued on 55 sections, 

building is in full swing and the first residents are moving 

into their new homes. 

Ultimately covering 8.2 hectares, the popularity of 

Copper Ridge is down to section affordability and 

closeness to amenities. Bordering Halswell Junction Road 

and opposite Knight Stream Park playing fields, Copper 

Ridge is handy to Knight Stream Park School, a children’s 

cycle track, local shops and the southern motorway. 

“Copper Ridge has a peaceful setting with easy access 

to amenities and the city. There’s a mix of lot sizes so 

residents aren’t jammed in while homes built there are of 

a high standard,” says Evan Beker. 

Evan and his wife Nadja are Joint Venture Partners 

of Generation Homes Christchurch, preferred building 

partner at Copper Ridge where the company has already 

constructed eight homes with another twenty under way. 

Covering eight hectares, Copper Ridge covenants 

require quality builds where homes have an element of 

architectural style reflected in features such as gables 

and secondary cladding, and attractive landscaping from 

the internal fencing to upgraded pillar letterboxes. The 

high standard, green space and ideal location with good 

connectivity to the city, impressed Generation Homes 

Christchurch’ sales consultant Amit Srivatav who has 

chosen to build at Copper Ridge. His views are shared by 

other residents. 

“Copper Ridge was top of our list when choosing 

where to build our first home. It has a warm vibe with 

spacious houses in a beautiful area amongst a wonderful 

community, with a central location. Generation Homes 

validated our choice and worked superbly, making our 

first home building process so easy,” says primary teacher, 

Zahra Ditta. 

“Searching for the perfect place to build wasn’t easy. 

Amit Srivatav and Evan Beker. 

We chose Copper Ridge as it’s close to the city and major 

facilities, and the land was reasonably priced. We wanted 

an affordable eco-friendly home which was earthquake 

compliant. We got this and much more in finished quality, 

look and feel for our first home. The Generation Homes’ 

team did a great job, assisting us through the decisions 

so we spent our money on what mattered in the long 

run. Our family of four has a very good looking and 

exceptionally well-constructed new home, built on time 

and within budget,” says Bimlesh Sharma. 

Sections range from 400sqm-700sqm at Copper Ridge 

where Generation Homes Christchurch currently have 

a number of house and land packages available from 

$530,000. They offer a fixed price contract and on-time 

delivery. This gives clients certainty over their lives, 

accommodation arrangements and finance. 

With a library of over 300 designs and the capacity 

to adapt a design or start from scratch, the Generation 

Homes’ team help their clients create a home they will 

love. 

Look for Generation Homes Christchurch’ new show
