The Covid­19virus has forced the

Oxford A&P Show on April4,have
both beencancelled.
Postponements or

winter, which traditionally is the
quietesttime forinternational
travellers.
Mr Abbot says work is being done
at thepools complex on the impact
of restrictions aroundgatherings of
more than 500 people.
He says thereare few times when
thereare morethan 500 people at
the complex at one time.
‘‘Butweare working on aplan to
manage that.’’
Thereisalso ahuge focus on
hygiene, with cleaning
regimes stepped up.
‘‘We are working
through that to make
sure all hygiene is
higherthan it normally
is, so we can providea
service in asafe
environment,’’ he says.
Mr Abbotsays it has
been confirmed that
Covid­19 is not carried
by water, and says the
waterquality at the complex
already exceeds every standard.
‘‘We do morethan what is
required,’’ he says.

Crunch looms over virus controls

‘‘Everything has been going
good. Better than what we
thought. But Ithink it will
change, we’re just not sure
how yet. It’s certainly not
business as usual.’’
Arecord 13 cruise­ship
visits were scheduled this
season and, while one visit
was cancelled early in the
season due to the weather,
just one remaining visit has
had to be cancelled because
of the new cruise ship ban.
‘‘We have had
cancellations in terms of
accommodation, but most of
the operators have been able
to fill cancellations, so far,’’
Mr Ormsby says.
‘‘We just have to wait and
see what’s in front of us.’’
He says the experiences
following the global financial
crisis in 2008 and the 2016
earthquake found that while
overseas tourist numbers fell,
domestic visitors increased
significantly.
‘‘There’s alot of New
Zealanders who haven’t seen
their own country, so they
don’t know how beautiful it
is.’’
Meanwhile, community
leaders are grappling with
how to support those affected
by the tourism downturn and
farmers already suffering
from the drought.
Mother nature also had a
say early on Monday, with a
5.1­magnitude quake near
Culverden.
Hurunui Mayor Marie
Black said gatherings were
held to help lift people’s
spirits during the last
drought and during recovery

quake. Guest speakers were
brought in and field days and
farmer meetings were held.
This, she says, is adifferent
beast, because it precludes
giving people the opportunity
to join in events of 500 or
more.
‘‘It is really sad that the
Hawarden Show has had to
be cancelled.
‘‘It is the fellowship at the
show that is just as important
as the competitive side.
People enjoy chatting, having
alaugh, and having aday of
relaxation,’’ she says.
‘‘But we have to do some
different thinking, and the
council will be talking about
how it can support people
through this latest adverse
event.
‘‘We must all follow the
Ministry of Health
guidelines. We are all living
in the moment,’’ she says.
Mrs Black says the
difficulty for people is not
knowing how long there will
be border controls and rules
around mass gatherings.
‘‘Nothing is defined at this
stage.’’
Waimakariri Mayor Dan
Gordon says residents are
understandably concerned
about the virus.
‘‘We urge everyone to
remain calm, look after
yourself and your families,
and to take any necessary
precautions when required.
‘‘We can all help to ‘keep it
out’, and ‘stamp it out’ and
‘slow it down’.
‘‘The council is staying upto­date
on the situation and,
like all of us, is listening to,
and ready to react to,
announcements coming from
the Ministry of Health,” he
says.

Concerns over elder abuse
By RACHEL MACDONALD
Elder abuseisalive and well in
the Hurunui and Waimakariri,
says Simon Templeton, chief
executive of Age Concern
Canterbury.
In fact,hesays it is unlikely
there is any extended familyin
the region,regardless of
ethnicity or socio­economic
status,where it is not present.
‘‘Whether it’sphysical,
financial, or psychological
abuse, this kindoffamily
violence affects around10
percentofolder people every
year,’’hesays.
‘‘Waimakariri alone has
more than 11,500 residents
aged older than 65, so that’s
more than 1000 people
annually likelytobesuffering
some form of abuse.’’
He saysthe main driverisa
lack of respect for the elderly
in today’s mainstreamculture.
Adding insult to injury, 75
percentofperpetratorsare
usuallyfamily members.
‘‘It’s this family connection
that makes elderabuse such a
complexproblem. Of course,
the olderperson wants the
abuse to stop, but they
generally also wanttokeep
relationships intact.
‘‘It can be very difficult to
find an outcome that delivers
on both fronts.’’
The mostcommon form of
abuse his team is called upon
Elderabuse ... ‘‘This kindoffamily violence affects around 10 percent of olderpeople every year.’’
to deal with is psychological.
‘‘We see it all the time, as do
doctors and lawyers. So often, a
relativewill talkfor an older

for them, or evenrefuseto

consultation.
‘‘We’re not talking about

dementia here. Their rights
are securedwithinalegal

they were of sound mind.
‘‘We’retalking aboutfamily
or acquaintances tryingtotake

he says.

Glenmark gears up for centenary event
By ROBYN BRISTOW
The Glenmark Rugby Club may have lost
its memorabilia and home in afire five

Roading issues aired in capital
By DAVID HILL
Waimakariri’stransport
concerns have been aired in
Wellington.
Mayor Dan Gordonled a
local delegation to meet
with Transport Minister
Phil Twyford last week at
the Beehive to discuss
transport projects such as
the proposed Woodend
Bypass, road safety
concerns in Woodendand
the Skew Bridge upgrade.
Mr Gordon was joined by
chief executive Jim Palmer
and utilities and roading
manager Gerard Cleary.
The trio took with them
letters from the Hurunui
District Council,
Ravenswood businesses,
the Pegasus and Woodend
Residents’Associations and
the Woodend­Sefton
Community Board in
support of the Woodend
projects.
The proposed Woodend
Bypasshas been in the
pipeline for several years
and Mr Gordonsays the
council has backed the
project since2001.
“Thetransport minister
understood the frustrations
of the community and said
he had received alot letters

“The council cannot
dictate how andwhere the

on transport infrastructure,
but this meetingwas away
of makingsure the needs

community are
acknowledged and known
by the minister.”
There have been safety
concerns around Skew
Bridge atSilverstream,in
west Kaiapoi, for sometime.
Aproposal to upgrade or
replace the bridge has been
put forward as part of a
wider project to improve
the western Rangiora
alignment from Townsend

Rangiora to the motorway
and take pressure off

The cost of upgrading
Skew Bridgecould cost as
much as $12 million, which
would be amajor burdenon

agency funding was not
available.

Enthusiasts lead alife of Riley

cars plussupportvehicles,
including 13 from the North
Island and some Australian
visitors,enjoying what the
region had to offer.
Christchurch Riley car

Rangiora was chosenasthe
rallyhub ‘‘because it ticked
all the boxes’’.
‘‘We always base it in a
town which has all the
facilitiesand we got out
each day on trips around
the area.’’
From the Rangiora base,
the Riley cars ventured to
Halswell, Lincoln,
Lyttelton, Amberley,
Oxford, the Waimakariri
Gorge and Mt Thomas,
visiting car museums and
sheds across the region.
Mr Calder says British
Riley motor cars spanneda
70­year period starting at
‘‘the dawnofmotoring’’.
‘‘Theywere very
successful in motorsport
and were known for being
very rugged and strong, and
tendedtohold together in
all conditions.’’
He said the oldest car in
the rally was from 1928,
with the newest from 1967.
Both were driven by their
Kaiapoi owners.

Ambassadors help campers
Ambassadors are helping freedom
campers to stay on track in the Cheviot
area of Hurunui district.
Two ambassadors havebeen employed,
Nukuroa and Heidi Tirikatene­Nash,
who share a20­hour­a­week position
funded by the Ministry of Business
Employment and Innovation (MBIE).
Hurunui District Council’s compliance
team leader,AndrewBrown, saysthe
programme is goingwell.
Behaviour of freedom campers has
improvedand complaints havebeen
reduced in Cheviot’s popular coastal
locations of GoreBay, Nape Nape and
nearby hot spotswhere the ambassadors
have been workingover summer.
Previously, freedom camping concerns
were dealt with by districtcouncil
officerswho had to drivelong distances to
tackle complaints in the area.
Ambassadors now provide the service,
visiting when freedom campersare
setting up forthe night, giving themthe
opportunity to educatecampers on their
responsibilities, share theirlove forthe
area,and inform campers on what their
options are, while savingratepayer
dollars.
When required,they enforce the
council’s bylaws if acamper has setup
wherefreedomcamping is prohibited.
Nukuroa says their experiences have
been largely positive,with overseas
visitors happy to comply with by­laws.
“Manyvisitors are really thankfultobe
in the country and want to be good
kaitiaki (guardians) and responsible
travellers,” Nukuroa says.
As tangata whenua, visitorshave
appreciated the culturalinteraction with
Nukuroa and many special connections
have beenmade.
“We’re mindfulthat we are partofa
visitor’s travel experience in Hurunui so
we try to get them on­board to work with
us,and for themtohave enjoyed meeting
us.
‘‘We’vehad people say they haveleft
theWest Coast and Queenstowntoreturn
to the Hurunuiasitwas such agreat
travel experience.”
As ambassadors, Nukuroa and Heidi
direct alot of business intothe
community by sendingpeople to nearby
camping grounds, or to the allocated
freedom camping sites. They always give
peopleoptionsfor movingon, whichhas
been successful.
“There are always people who wantto
tryiton, and it’s surprisinghow well
informedand howprecise the questions
arefrom campers who wishtointerpret
thefreedom campingby­laws in their
favour.
‘‘Most of the concerns are with New
Zealanderswho have less tolerance to
compliance,’’ Nukuroasays.
Driving programme planned
Mentordrivers are neededfor anew
community­based programme in the
Waimakariri district.
The SalvationArmy is launchingafree
community drivermentor programme in
Rangiora today to assist drivers in getting
their restricted and full driver’s licences.
Regional co­ordinatorJuliaGraham
says the programme hasbeen
running in Christchurch since
2014, with 760 drivers
advancing through the
initiative.
It is being extendedtothe
West Coast,Timaru, Ashburton
and the Waimakariri thanksto
support from the Salvation
Army, the government’s
Provincial Growth Fund, the
policeand StadiumCars.
‘‘We really need mentors for this
programme. They need to have had afull
licence for at least two years, aclean
drivers’ licence and to be patient; and they
will go through apolice check.’’
Julia was involved in setting up the
OxfordU­Driveprogramme to help young
peopletogain their restricted licence.
‘‘The new programme is different
because it’s not just for teenagersbut for
Julia Graham
anybodywho’s got any barriers.It’s alsofor
people on parole, single mums on a
benefit, peoplewith disabilities or who
struggle with mental health. Anxiety is a
big one.’’
Julia says she already has six people on
the waiting list before the launch.
Two sponsoredcars are being provided
for the programme.
The cars will be automatic.
Drivers who sit the restricted
licencedriving testare only
licensed to drive automatics,
but oncethey obtaintheir full
licencethey will be able to
drive both manual and
automatic cars,Julia says.
She says concerns havebeen
raisedbydrivingschoolsthat
theymay lose business.
‘‘It’s not competingwith driving schools
becauseweare helping thosewho can’t
afford to pay for lessons. It’s about making
driverssafer. If we can get all those people
on our programme then we are goingtoget
safer drivers on ourroads and that’swhere
we are lookingtowork withthe police.’’

Regions best placed
to drive economy
By RACHEL MACDONALD
Wellington needs to letgoof the reins
and letthe country’ssmaller
communities get on withdrivingtheir
own economic development.
Thatisthe thrustofareport,
Powering Up theRegions,recently
released by DavidWilson,directorof
Economic Development NewZealand.
Mr Wilson sits on an advisorypanel
for the government’s $1 billion
Provincial Growth Fund,but thatonly
applies to six regionsnationwide.
He saysthe time hascometolookat
economic development forall regions,
along withfundingtosupport earlystage
start­upsthat will add value to the
area.
Waimakariri MayorDan Gordon,who
sits on theboard of Enterprise North
Canterbury (ENC), says thepaperneeds
careful consideration, and its findings
willbediscussedwithENC and the
council’s staff andrepresentatives in
due course.
He saysitraises amix of matters for
existing economic development
agencies such as ENC, their respective
councils and thegovernment to get
their headsaround.
The reportargues thatregional
councils and economic agencies have
the on­groundknowledge and contacts
needed to getlocally relevant,
profitable, and sustainablebusinesses
off theground.
Theyalready knowhow to getthings
done, it says, buthave to navigate too
muchred tapetoget funding from
central government to makeithappen.
Thatisgetting in theway of the
government’s30­year economic plan,
which calls forasustainable,
productive andinclusive economy, but
doesn’tset out howtoget there.
‘‘Wedon’t have apolicy or strategy
probleminNew Zealand;wehave an
implementation problem,’’ thereport
says.
It also suggests thecurrent approach
to regional development is too
centralised, witharesultant lack of
trust between local councils andcentral
government.
It recommendsbuilding capacity and
capability for regional economic
development,which willtake abetter
understanding of policyand practice at
all levels.
It addsthat theregions needgood
economic development agencies, but
councils oftenstruggle to fundthem,so
theyare under­resourcedand therefore
workingatless than full capacity.
‘‘Fromwhat Isee of Mr Wilson’s
findings, there are many aspects
reflected in the way North Canterbury
alreadygoes abouteconomic
developmentpromotion, throughENC,
thatwecan be proud of,’’ Mr Gordon
says.
He addsthat thereare undoubtedly
thingsthe regionmightdobetter,but
resource implications, as noted in the
report, needtobetaken intoaccount.

Cottage revamp a
quake milestone
By ROBYN BRISTOW
The historicWaiauCobCottage, badly
damagedinthe2016 earthquake, has been
reborn.
Descendants of the Fraser family,who
livedinthe cottage for20 yearsfrom1867,
wereonhandlastSaturday to officially
open the cottage and admire its
restoration.
Eleven members of thefamily travelled
southfromTaumaranui,Tauranga,
HavelockNorth,Taupo, Auckland,
Whangamata and Masterton for the
ceremony.
They joined around 60 people,including
Hurunui Mayor Marie Black, local
councillor Ross Barnes and council staff,
to celebrate the milestone in Waiau’s
recovery fromthe7.8­magnitude quake.
Grant Fraser, the first­born grandchild
of Hugh Fraser, said there was something
special about Waiau.
‘‘It is such an amazing community. Ihave
neverlived here,butitfeels like home,”
Grant said. “When Ivisitedthecobcottage
in 2017 after the earthquake damage, I
never could haveimagined theresult we
seetoday.Weare so gratefulforthe
commitment and support everyone has
given.Itis amazing.
“Whatawonderful day, with great food
and good people.
❛It is such an amazing
community. Ihave never lived
here, but it feels like home.❜
—Grant Fraser
‘‘We are so happy we made it down.”
Grant said the familyunderstoodHugh
settled in the cottage with11children.
Three children died and were buried in
theWaiau cemetery.
After 20 years in Waiau, the Frasers
moved to Gisborne.
The project to restore the cottagewas
made possible by funding from the Lottery
Grants Board and the AmuriHistorical
Society.
MaryBowen’s work in archiving the
history of the Fraser family was
recognised, along with the cob cottage
history by Cameron Scott, aFraser
descendant. Tribute was also paidtothe
support of the council,the work of the
builder, Jim Gentle, andthe effortsofM.C.
Jackson Plastering Ltd in faithfully
restoring the walls of the cottage using a
mix of straw, localdirtandcow dung.
Mrs Black said thecommunity had been
amazing in swinging behind Waiau’s
recovery and helping ensure the
restoration of the cottage.
Master plan being prepared
By DAVID HILL
Oxford AreaSchoolhopes to have a
master planfor itsproposedrebuild by
the endofthe year.
Therehas been much anticipation
sincethe government announceda
$10 million redevelopment of the school
in September 2018 and principal Mike
Hart admitsthat progress has been a
little slowerthan he would like.
‘‘Last year, as aschool,wewrote a
briefofhow we currently use the school
setting and how we mightuse it in the
future.
‘‘It’s about lookingat50years from
now.
‘‘We’re not just rebuilding the school
for tomorrow,it’s for the future, so it’s
important that we invest the time in the
planning.
‘‘We are just excited and really
looking forward to seeing thefirstdraft
and then working withthe architects to
finalise it.’’
Mr Hart saysvirtually the entire
school will be redeveloped, aside from
the new modern learning environment
building whichwas opened in 2017.
The school will receiveanextra
$347,000 fromthe government’s schools
packageannounced towards the end of
lastyearand ‘‘wewillbelookingtouse
thatinconjunctionwith the rebuild’’.
Mr Hart saysthe school’s observatory
is considered aclassroomand will be
incorporated in the rebuild.
‘‘Wewould likeittobeacentrepiece
in the school.The biggest challengeis
the line of sight and being abletosee the
horizon.’’
The new observatorywill likely
incorporatealecture­theatre­type
space, whichcan be used as aclassroom
during the day,with thetelescope room
attached.

Omihi Collie Club to mark 100 years
By ROBYN BRISTOW
Taleswill be unleashedand
dog skills shown off at the
home of the Omihi CollieClub
laterthis month.
The club is celebrating its
100thbirthday at Eastlyn,
Omihi, on March 29 and 30.
Laterinthe year it will hold
acentennial dinner, where a
booklet on the history of the
club will be launched.
The club was formedin1919
at ameeting of the Omihi
branch of the Farmers’ Union
at Omihi School.
It was namedthe Waipara
and OmihiCollie Dog Trial
Club,with Waipara being
dropped from the namein
1935.
Mr G.B.Starky was elected
patron, Mr AngusCameron
presidentand Mr W. Baxter
vice­president.
Mr Starkyofferedapaddock
and his sheep for the firsttrial
at Spye, wheretwo open
classes and amaiden class for
farmers wererun. The maiden
classcovered the Waipara,
Omihi, Scargilland Motunau
school districts.
The Spye railway station was
nearby, which competitors
used to gettothe venue.
As trialsare today,itwas a
community event, with many in
the district helping the event to
run smoothly, with womenin
the kitchentoensure there was
plenty to eat.
Spye remained host to the
trials until 1969, when it was
movedtoWash Creek,at
Waipara. In 1986, anew home
was found at Eastlyn,atOmihi,
where the clubremains today.
The move meant acouple of
buildings had to be movedto
the new grounds.
As theywere getting close to
thedestination, one of the
buildings started slipping off
thetruck,but theycarried on,
making it to the farmwiththe
building still on board and in
onepiece.
On one occasion, Tom
Barwell ranafield day at
Netherwood,before rugby.
Snow coveredthe ground, but
thefieldday carried on
regardless.
Mr Barwell becameatop
triallistand laterturnedto
breeding dogs.Hehad kennels
at the back of Amberley.
Some othertop triallists
have beenmembers,including
Leo Croft,Dick Carmichael,
Ron Symmonds, Ray Maskew,
John Kollowski, Lex Couper,
Neil Evans and Ted Lewis.
Notablewomen in its ranks
have includedBarbara

Steph shows true grit in her chosen passion
By ROBYN BRISTOW
Waipara local and dog triallist Steph
Tweed has been named the Skellerup
New Zealand Rural Sportswoman of the
Year.
Steph was awarded the honour at the
2020 Norwood NZ Rural Awards at the
Awapuni Racecourse in Palmerston
North last weekend.
Steph became the first woman to win a
New Zealand dog trial championship in
June last year.
She won the North Island and the New
Zealand championship straight hunt
with Grit, her black­and­tan huntaway,
whom she has had since he was apup.
Steph, astock manager, was
introduced to dog trials by her father
when she was at school. She says once
you get ataste of trialling, it’s
impossible to stop.
She told the North Canterbury News
after her win that she had always been
mad keen on dogs. She says her dogs are
the main reasons she is farming.
Steph entered her first national dog
trial competition in 2013, aged 21.
Last year, after competing in dog trial
competitions against her father, Steph
went on to claim third place in the South
Island championships at Hanmer
Springs, before taking astab at the
national title which she won, becoming
the first woman in the 130 years of the
sport to claim the title.
On the first go­round, Grit scored a
whopping 97 points to win the North
Island leg of the championship. In his
second run, he scored 95.5, with both
scores being tallied to give her the
overall honours in the straight hunt.
Grit was bred by Steph’s father, the
offspring of his bitch Gemma, atwo­time
South Island straight hunt champion.
Grit, who is just over 5 1 ⁄2,had been an
easy dog to train.
Steph says the sheep and beef farm
she manages at Waipara provides an
ideal place to keep her dogs fit and in
work.
The judging panel for the awards is
convened by Olympic rowing medallist
Nathan Twaddle, and includes rural
sports icon and president of Shearing
Sports New Zealand Sir David Fagan,
fencing legend Paul van Beers, MP for
Taranaki­King Country Barbara
Kuriger, founder and trustee of the Ford
Ranger New Zealand Rural Games
Steve Hollander, and agricultural
journalists Craig ‘‘Wiggy’’ Wiggins and
Tony Leggett.
Nominations for the awards are made
by rural sports associations from
throughout New Zealand.
Eatery in Greystone'snew-look cellar door
Organic wine producer
Greystone has opened anewlook
cellar door and eatery at
its vineyard in Waipara.
The cellar door now boasts
an eatery offering sharing
plates made from locally
grown, organic and foraged
produce. It is headed by
acclaimed chef and forager,
Melany Wright.
General manager, and
founding viticulturist Nick
Gill says Mel’s food aligns
perfectly with the team’s
ambition to provide an
authentic North Canterbury
wine and food experience.
‘‘We make wine that
reflects our environment, so
it made sense to develop a
menu that captures both
season and provenance.
‘‘Mel is renowned among
chefs in New Zealand for her
foraging skills as well as her
ability to tell astory of place
through food. There’s
something very special about
being able to share North
Canterbury food and wine in
this way,’’ he says.
The refit of the cellar door
was motivated by the new
labels launched by the
winery at the end of last year.
Greystone is 100 percent
certified organic.
The Greystone Cellar Door
and Kitchen is open daily
from 10am­5pm.
The full menu can be
viewed online at bit.ly/

The uncertainty around the
coronavirus pandemic is adding
yet another headache for North
Canterbury farmers.
Federated Farmers North
Canterbury president Cameron
Henderson and North
Canterbury Rural Support Trust
chairman Andy Munro say dry
conditions, the ongoing effects of
Mycoplasma bovis and
coronavirus, and this week’s
5.1­magnitude earthquake near
Culverden are creating
uncertainty.
‘‘The effects of the virus seem
to be changing day to day, as we
have seen with share markets
and travel bans,’’ Mr Henderson
says.
‘‘The forestry sector and
seafood sector seem to be feeling
the greatest pain, followed
closely by the meat sector.’’
He says the dairy industry
appears to be faring the best as
markets seem to be more stable,
and drought conditions have
probably helped keep prices up.
‘‘Luckily, our main market in
China seems to be getting on top
of the virus so it would be great to
see areturn to normal trading
happening soon.
‘‘Things are dry, but most
farmers seem to be surviving
OK.’’
Mr Munro says the Rural
Support Trust is exploring ways
Cameron Henderson ... ‘‘The effects of the virus seem to be changing day
to day, as we have seen with share markets and travel bans.’’
to help people stay connected
now that large gatherings are
being cancelled.
‘‘I went to the Cheviot A&P
Show at the weekend and it was a
good event, and agood chance for
people to catch up and have a
chat.’’
He says it is important for
people to get out while they are
able to and support local
businesses and the wider
community.
‘‘It’s good that people are being
proactive and postponing or
cancelling overseas trips.
‘‘I would encourage people to
get along and support your local
coffee shop and local businesses.
It’s amatter of everybody being
aware and thinking of others, and
try to support each other.’’
Mr Munro says there could be
implications for large funerals
and family gatherings, while
school sports events may be in
doubt.
‘‘Hopefully we can get rain and
at least that will take drought out
of the equation.’’
He reminds people that the
trust is available to help by
phoning 0800 787 254.
‘‘Too often people think they
are the only one in that situation,
but as soon as they look out the
door they realise everyone else is
in the same boat.’’
