RESIDENTS SAY IT’S BULLY BOY TACTICS
Fulton Hogan appeals
quarry conditions
• By Devon Bolger
FULTON Hogan’s bid to
change some of the conditions
it will operate its controversial
quarry near Weedons under has
been described as “bully boy
tactics.”
The roading company wants
to appeal parts of the resource
consent it was granted by
Environment Canterbury and the
district council.
One of the conditions Fulton
Hogan is appealing is that once a
year ECan may serve notice of its
intention to review the conditions
of these consents for the purposes
of off-setting or compensating
for any adverse effects on human
health arising from suspended
particulate matter generated by
quarry activities.
The company says the condition
is unreasonable and it is difficult
to envisage what kind of health
effect is being referred to and how
it could be off-set.

DOES FULTON Hogan
want to be a good corporate
citizen over the controversial
Roydon Quarry?
If our page 1 article today is
anything to go by probably not.
Fulton Hogan was granted
resource consent to develop
the quarry in an area which
will be close to where people
live. Who wants a dusty,
noisy and truck-busy quarry
near them?
Fulton Hogan argued the
impact of the quarry would
not be as bad as the residents
opposing it said it would
be. Conditions were placed
on the resource consent to
mitigate what lies ahead for
residents.
But now the contracting
giant is appealing some of
those conditions, putting
more pressure on residents
who are also appealing the
original decision.
Why should we be
surprised?

Residents angry over
dumped rubbish across district
• By Devon Bolger
DUMPED RUBBISH across the
district is angering residents who
say they are fed up with people
destroying the landscape.
District council regulatory
manager Billy Charlton said 95
notifications of dumped rubbish
in a public place have been
received since January.
“When council receives a
report of rubbish being dumped
it is always cleared as soon as
possible by our contractors.”
Mr Charlton said 18 instances
have been investigated this year
and eight infringement notices
have been issued with fines
totaling $2650.
Springston resident Gail
Route said she is appalled at
the amount of litter she comes
across on her regular bike rides.
“It is mainly fast food takeaway
packaging, disposable coffee
and soft drink cups, glass beer
bottles and plastic bottles.
“I have been living in
Springston for 10 years and I’m
just getting fed up with all the
rubbish.”
Ms Route said the rubbish
appears to be coming from
vehicles.
“Where I cycle it is too far for
people to walk so quite obviously
it is people chucking litter from
their cars.”
She has stopped picking up the
rubbish because there is just too
much.
“I did get in touch with the
council and they said they did
send somebody out to clean up
but I can’t tell if they’ve actually
done that or if more litter has
appeared.”
Ms Route would like to see
more roadside and television
advertising asking people to dispose
of their rubbish properly.
•HAVE YOUR SAY: Do you
think rubbish dumping is a
problem in the district? Email
devon.bolger@starmedia.kiwi
“It can’t be good for the wildlife,
native birds and things like
that. The material also might get
broken down and leech into the
ground.”
Rolleston resident Siena
Turner says she is also sick of
rubbish dumping in the district,
especially along Dunns Crossing
Rd.

DISAPPOINTED:
A collection of
rubbish found
by Springston
resident Gail
Route on a bike
ride recently.
She said she was on a walk
with her family last week when
she came across a pile of rubbish
with more than 50 wrappers and
bottles.
“I was infuriated at this. It
makes me angry because people
are destroying the rural, green
and fresh landscape of Dunns
Crossing Rd.
“I’d like to ask the public,
keep this lovely district
clean because owners of the
properties shouldn’t be picking
up someone else’s mess,” she
said.

about 2.15pm. The driver was the
sole occupant.

Voters know what parties they want;
The general election
is nine weeks away.
National has always held
sway in Selwyn, and
has a new electorate
candidate in Nicola
Grigg. Reporter Devon
Bolger tests the pulse of
the district
POLITICAL opinions in the
district appear to be quite varied.
Outside of the Countdown
supermarket in Rolleston, Alice
Tang was in a hurry to pick up
her groceries but said she was
happy to spare a few moments to
talk politics.
She has been living in Rolleston
since 2012.
“I feel like we don’t have a solid
plan to deal with the economy.
We are facing a really big crisis
and need a long-term plan.”
Ms Tang said she will be giving
her vote to Act.
“That is purely because I know
Labour and National have their
supporters but I would like to see
a different party get a chance to
show what they can do.”
She said she did not know
enough about cannabis use or
the upcoming referendum to offer
an opinion.
Alice Tang
“I think it requires a lot more
research and planning but I’m
not opposed to it,” she said.
Ms Tang knew the National
candidate for Selwyn was Nicola
Grigg, but not the other candidates.
Further along, Edgar Caisip
had stopped to roll a cigarette
after going to The Warehouse.
He said if the polls were to
open next week, he would be
voting for Labour.
“I think they are working for
the country. The pandemic has
been quite crazy.”
Mr Caisip said he was “dead
against’’ legalising cannabis but
in favour of euthanasia.
He did not know who the candidates
were for Selwyn.
Along Rolleston Drive, Martin
Perry was out for a walk to the
New World supermarket.
Lena Atger
He said he thinks the cannabis
referendum is a major issue this
election.
“I am really torn about it
because I would vote yes for medicinal
use, absolutely, but I am
just not too sure about personal
use. I think it contradicts what
the Government is trying to
achieve with going smoke-free.”
Mr Perry said normally he
would vote for National but he
is unsure after recent incidents
such as the Covid-19 patient data
leak.
“It is a tricky one for me. I will
have to see how I feel closer to
the time.”
He did not know any of the
candidates, saying: “All I know
is Amy Adams but I think she is
retiring.”
Mr Perry said he disagreed
with euthanasia for religious
reasons and would be voting no
at the referendum.
In the Faringdon subdivision
in Rolleston, Lena Atger was
gardening in her front lawn.
She agreed to stop for a quick
chat and seemed excited about a
political discussion.
Ms Atger lives and works in
the district. She has been there
for about 10 years.
She would definitely not be
voting for National but would
have to do more research before
deciding where her vote would
go.
“I don’t know much about the
guy they have elected as leader
now. I also don’t know any of
their policies at all.”
Ms Atger said she would be
voting no for the legalisation of
cannabis and was unsure how
she would vote on the euthanasia
bill.

opinion divided on two referendums
“I don’t know any of the candidates
here. I couldn’t even tell
you one, which is bad I know.”
Heading east, Prebbleton resident
Anderson Webb was walking
his dog along Tosswill Rd.
He said he would be voting for
National this year.
“That is who I voted for last
time as well.”
Mr Webb said he thought the
legalisation of cannabis was a
major issue in the upcoming election.
“I will be voting yes. I don’t
really have an opinion on euthanasia.”
He said Nicola Grigg was the
only candidate he knew of.
A short time later in Lincoln,
Howard Paterson was waiting to
catch the bus outside the library
along Gerald St.
“It is hard to say what the major
issues are but I think the recovery
from Covid-19 will be key for the
country going forward.”
Mr Paterson said if the polls
were to open next week he would
be voting for Labour.
“The National Party has had
some bad days. Namely with
the recent leaking incident with
Michelle Boag,” he says of the
Covid patient list leaked to the
news media.
He was unsure of who the candidates
for the electorate are.
Strolling through Lincoln’s
Liffey Domain were David and
Lynne Montgomery.
They both also thought the
recovery from Covid-19 would be
a major issue.
Mr Montgomery joked that
footpaths are another issue which
will cause much debate.
When asked who they would
vote for, Mrs Montgomery said
Labour and Mr Montgomery said
National.
“It doesn’t matter that we don’t
agree,” Mrs Montgomery said.
Neither of the couple was in
favour of legalising cannabis.
Mrs Montgomery said she
thinks Labour is likely to win.
“It varies when you ask but at
the moment I think it’s Labour. I
don’t think National has the right
guy as leader.”
Artemio Mendoza-Mendoza
was waiting for the bus at the
stop near The Famous Grouse
Hotel on Gerald St with his sixyear-old
son Santiago.
Mr Mendoza-Mendoza said he
thinks Labour is doing a good job

and would be voting for them.
“It is going to be difficult
to decide when to open the
borders and I think the good
work that has been done has to
continue.”
He would be voting yes on the
cannabis and euthanasia referendums.
“I think legalising cannabis is a
good idea. The medicinal properties
are very good.”
Real estate agent Stu Jones was
taking a stroll through the Preston
Downs subdivision in West
Melton.

Claims of a tit-for-tat
Stu Jones
•From page 5
Mr Jones said he would be voting
in favour of euthanasia but no
on the cannabis referendum.
“This time last year, I would
have been a yes but after going
to Canada and seeing people
smoking cannabis on the street,
I thought well that’s not exactly
what I had in mind.”
Mr Jones said it is too early to
tell who will win the election but
it will be close.
Mark Exton was on his way to
get some groceries at the West
Melton Village shopping centre.
He said he had a few moments to
chat before he had to rush off.
“I will be voting for the
National Party. I express a preference
based on historical policies I
have seen.”
Mr Exton said he thinks a major
issue is tourism and the idea
of keeping the country productive
Mark Exton
Henry King
‘It will be close’
and keeping the economy going.
He said he would vote yes on
both the cannabis and euthanasia
referendums.
“If cannabis is controlled then
yes but there will always be
people who abuse that.”
He had no idea of the MP
candidates this year but said the
name Nicola rung a bell.
After travelling further down
West Coast Rd to Darfield, Henry
King was in his driveway on
South Terrace.
He said his vote would be going
to Act this election after voting
for the National Party in the last
election.
“I think a major issue facing
our country is obviously how we
will recover from Covid-19.”
He said he would be voting
yes to legalise cannabis and
euthanasia and did not know the
names of any of the candidates.
• From page 1
The decision – which granted
consent for the quarry for 35
years – imposed a number of
conditions, including setting up
a dust management plan, truck
movements limited to 1200 a day
and no work can take place at
night during the quarry’s first five
years.
A long time quarry
opponent, Weedons
resident Simon Moore
said: “It is just a bit of
bully boy tactics. Fulton
Hogan publicly stated
how pleased they were
with the conditions and
then as soon as somebody
appeals they come
out and say they aren’t
happy.
“They are just contradicting
themselves.”
Fulton Hogan’s appeal comes
after Weedons resident Stephen
Bain’s bid to overturn the resource
consent granted to operate
the quarry.
Mr Bain is seeking public
support to fund an appeal to the
Environment Court to stop it.
He and Mr Moore believe
Fulton Hogan’s own appeal is a
tit-for-tat response.
Said Mr Bain: “I think it was
a strategic move that they have
made because of my appeal. I
Simon
Moore
don’t think they were going to
do it until they saw other people
were appealing.
“I was very surprised because
the extension to appeal was only
granted 24 hours before the
initial appeal period closed so it
didn’t seem like they planned on
appealing.”
The Christchurch City Council
has also got involved.
At a meeting last Thursday
it decided to become a
party to proceedings to try
and stop the conditions of
the resource consent being
changed.
It has until Monday to
lodge the necessary paperwork.
Then it may be able
to present submissions and
evidence at a subsequent
hearing.
Fulton Hogan is appealing
these conditions:
•Depositing clean fill is only
allowed between 6-8pm Monday
to Saturday. Fulton Hogan wants
it changed so the activity can occur
during evenings, night time
and Sundays.
• Heavy vehicle movements
leaving or accessing the quarry
need to use the direct route
comprising State Highway 1,
Jones and Dawsons Rds. Fulton
Hogan wants it changed so it just
has to take all practicable steps
to ensure the vehicles associated
with the quarry do not travel on
those roads.
• Loaded heavy vehicles
arriving at the site must have
their load covered. Fulton
Hogan wants this condition
removed.
• Heavy vehicles with aggregate
or other quarry material
leaving the site must cover their
load and have it dampened with
water spray. Fulton Hogan wants
it changed so that the vehicles
must either cover their load or
have it dampened.
• Once a year ECan may
serve notice of its intention to
review the conditions of these
consents for the purposes of
(amongst other things) “offsetting
or compensating for
any adverse effects on human
health arising from suspended
particulate matter (including
dust and respirable crystalline
silica) generated by quarry
activities.” Fulton Hogan
seeks the removal of the subparagraph
completely.
• Six dust monitoring devices
are to be installed prior to quarry
activities occurring and during
operations. Fulton Hogan wants
it changed to require one permanent,
regulatory certified monitor
and four calibrated, mobile
monitors.

ADVERTORIAL
Free gifts on
opening day!
• Prior to the start of
quarrying, the consent
holder must design and
implement a Respirable
Crystalline Silica monitoring
programme in consultation
with the Canterbury
District Health Board
and ECan and prepare a
report on the results of
the 12-month programme
within one month of
its completion. Fulton
Hogan is proposing two,
4-month-long monitoring
campaigns rather than one
12-month campaign.
• Quarry activities
(except dust suppression
measures) within 250m
of a sensitive receptor
location must not be
undertaken when the wind
direction places quarry
activities directly upwind
of the sensitive receptor
location and the wind
speed reaches or exceeds 7
m/s. Fulton Hogan wants
it changed so only a subset
of the activities that may
occur on-site are required
to stop under certain meteorological
conditions.
• It must take all reasonably
practicable measures
to minimise the discharge
of dust from quarry activities
which include ensuring
trucks leaving the site
with loads of fine material
and trucks entering the
site with loads of clean fill
are covered. Fulton Hogan
wants it changed so that
trucks can alternatively
pass under a water spray
boom.
• Should the ability to
take water cease at any
time, the consent holder
must cease quarry activities
requiring water usage
to manage dust. Fulton
Hogan wants it changed
so the company will assess
the need to temporarily
cease some or all parts of
operations itself.
• Excavation of aggregate
and deposition of clean fill
must only occur where the
quarry floor maintains at
least 1m separation depth
to groundwater. Fulton
Hogan is seeking a minor
change so that permissible
excavation depths are defined
by reference to an RL
level, as opposed to metres
below ground level.
• Should the groundwater
level increase so that
the separation is less than
1m between the measured
groundwater levels and
the current ground level
within the active quarry
floor quarry site, Fulton
Hogan must apply virgin
materials to that area, so as
to reestablish a 1m separation
distance throughout
the site. Fulton Hogan
wants it changed to include
that this requirement does
not apply to any areas
which have already been
rehabilitated;
• If the results of the
second groundwater
samples show an
exceedance of the trigger
concentrations, the consent
holder must sample all
domestic wells within
500m downgradient of
the affected bore. If any
domestic bore sample
reveals an adverse effect
on drinking-water quality,
then the consent holder
must either provide
the well user with an
alternative supply of
potable water, provide
an appropriate water
treatment system, or install
a deeper well for the user.
Fulton Hogan wants it
changed to state that the
exceedance must be more
than likely attributable to
the quarrying operations.
Finding a super comfortable bra can

Esther Rokk from Beauty Bra Ltd is

jumped at the opportunity. Lisa is
passionate about helping women
to find the correct fitting bra. Lisa
says, ‘I know what an uncomfortable
bra is like. When I was fitted with
the Beauty Bra I couldn’t believe
how comfortable I felt. It helped to
relieve my upper back pain because
the Beauty Bra fits properly and I
am securely supported. I don’t need
under wires for support because of
the Beauty Bra’s inbuilt shelf.’
‘Lisa has been thoroughly trained
and I know the ladies will feel at ease
with her,’ Esther says. ‘She has a kind
and gentle approach.’
The Beauty Bra is a healthy bra.
No under wires to impede lymphatic
drainage; no stretch straps; no
shoulder strap pull and no flattening
of the breast tissue. Your bust is
supported from beneath by the
cleverly concealed, inbuilt shelf.
There is very little weight on the
shoulders at all. That fact alone can
help to relieve back and shoulder
pain. All the Beauty Bra offers is
amazing comfort and support.
Lisa says, ‘We have over 200
hundred size combinations. That
allows us to fit to practically every
figure type. Plus we find they last
three times longer than your average
bra.’
Another garment in the range is
the Beauty Tummy Support. This
brilliant garment supports, protects
and gently lifts the abdomen after
surgery. Can also relieve hernia
conditions and eases strain after
childbirth. It is also used as gentle
tummy control.
For those women who love firm
shape wear check out our Beauty
Figure Control. Fabulous contouring
and gives a great look no matter what
the view. Pair it with the Beauty
Waist Trimmer and the Beauty Bra to
give you a lovely smooth silhouette.
All fittings are personal and private
from Lisa’s home in Prebbleton.
Beauty Bra is opening on Tuesday,
21 July. Women who book for a free,
no obligation fitting on that day will
receive free gifts with any purchases.
Spaces are extremely limited so book
early to avoid being disappointed.

Waste facility
application to go
straight to
Environment Court
• By Devon Bolger
A CONTROVERSIAL application
to expand a waste facility near
Prebbleton has been approved to go
straight to the Environment Court.
Last month, Waste Management
Ltd applied to have its resource consent
application to expand its site at
305 Marshs Rd bypass the council
hearing process.
Said an ECan spokeswoman:
“Council has 20 working days
to complete a report on the application,
including addressing any
issues; suggested conditions that
should be imposed if the consent
was granted; and provide a summary
of submissions.”
Waste Management Ltd will then
make a final decision to proceed
or not directly to the Environment
Court.
One of the reasons the company
gave for wanting to refer the matter
to the Environment Court is likely
appeals on the application.
“The application is contentious. It
has already generated considerable
community and media attention
including public meetings.
“The significant public interest
raises the real likelihood of appeals
and for that reason alone the
application should be directly
referred to the Environment Court.”
Prostate cancer support group
• By Devon Bolger
WHEN CHRIS Ward was
diagnosed with prostate
cancer in 2018 he learned the
importance of a strong support
system.
The 70-year-old Lincoln
resident decided it was time the
district had a dedicated support
group for men also suffering
from prostate cancer.
With the help of his wife
Dianne he started the group in
February last year.
They meet on every fourth
Wednesday of the month at the
Lincoln Event Centre.
It has 40 members on its
books and about 25 to 30 men
typically attend the meetings.
Said Mr Ward: “After I began
treatment I went to a support
group meeting in Christchurch
and I found that very valuable.
It was great to go along and talk
to other people with common
issues.
“Out here in Selwyn, I figured
there is quite a population of
people and one in eight is the
general strike rate for prostate
cancer so I thought there could
be a lot of people out here who
can benefit from some support
too.”
Mr Ward said he approached
the Prostate Cancer Foundation
about wanting to start the group
and they were very supportive.
The group attracts people
from across the district with
members from Darfield,
Rolleston, Leeston, Lincoln and
Prebbleton.
The meetings consist of a
sharing session for the men to
open up about their struggles
and sometimes guest speakers.
“We also have physios too.
They have a very pressing part to
play, they can offer a lot of help
so they came along and shared
what they can do for us.”
About 18 months ago members
of the group started to take
part in a pilot programme called
Prost-FIT.
It is a fitness group run by
Exercise As Medicine NZ which
includes elements of
cardio, resistance, boxing and
other modalities to improve
strength, balance and stamina.
“That has been extremely successful
for us and the Prostate
Cancer Foundation is looking to
expand the programme across
the country.”
Mr Ward said things are
looking positive for his health
as his two-year check-up in May

showed his prostate-specific
antigen levels were less than
0.1 which is basically undetectable.
The Prostate Cancer Foundation
is a beneficiary of the Dry
July event this year.
The event is run by the Dry
July NZ Trust and encourages
people to go without alcohol for
the month while raising money
for doing so.
A spokeswoman said the
money raised by participants
will help fund the Prost-FIT
programme.

Selwyn Sounds
Rocker to sing from extensive back catalogue
• By Matt Slaughter
WHEN JON Stevens’ song
Jezebel reached number one on
the New Zealand charts in 1979,
a career in music wasn’t on his
mind.
Said Stevens: “I made a record
when I was 16, it came out when
I was 17, which was Jezebel. It
was released and three weeks
later it was No 1 and all of a
sudden, I was famous in New
Zealand.
“It [music] was something
that I didn’t pursue at all, it
was like a happy accident
actually because it wasn’t
something I was actually into
doing,” he said.
But Stevens, who is entertainer
Frankie Stevens’ brother,
couldn’t stay away from music,
and more than four decades
later, he is set to headline Selwyn
Sounds on March 6 at Lincoln
Domain.
Jon Stevens is best known
for being the lead singer of
Noiseworks. He was also lead
singer of legendary Australian
band INXS for four years after
former frontman Michael
Hutchence died.
The Selwyn Sounds crowd can
expect Stevens to belt out a set
of hits from both of these bands
when he takes the stage.
Said Stevens: “I’ve got a
pretty good setlist going with,
obviously, both bands’ songs.
You can’t please everybody, but
nobody’s disappointed ever.
“It’s just hit after hit, you
know,” he said.
Stevens said these hits will
include INXS songs Need You
Tonight, Don’t Change and
Suicide Blonde and Noiseworks’
Hot Chilli Woman.
Stevens fronted INXS in the
early 2000s after Hutchence’s
death in 1997 and toured with
the band for four years.
“When I joined INXS, it was
just one of those things where it
seemed like a perfectly natural
fit and it was, and it’s something
that I know, and we all knew,
Michael would have been more
than happy for me to do because
we were compadres.”
Stevens said he and Hutchence
had “mutual admiration” for
ROCKING OUT:
Jon Stevens will
be performing
a set including
songs from
Noiseworks
and INXS at
Selwyn Sounds
on March 6.
The Lady Killers
will also be
performing.
each other.
“He [Hutchence] was a very
warm and engaging fellow. He
was a lovely bloke [with] charisma
to burn. One thing people didn’t
realise about Michael was he had
a really, really big voice, it was
really so loud.
“Because his subtlety in his
lower register was just incredible
and his tone was incredible,
when he jumped up an octave
and started belting it out, it was
just like, man, so full-on, and
that’s probably a big part of his
magic,” he said.
Stevens is looking forward
to the Selwyn Sounds crowd
hearing his spin on the INXS
songs and said he has the band’s
blessing to perform them.
Some of Stevens’ best career
memories have been playing
shows with artists including
Elton John, Aerosmith and Slash
and performing at venues such
as Madison Square Garden in
New York and Wembley Stadium
in London.
He said he is looking forward
to seeing the huge Kiwi lineup
set to take the stage at Selwyn
Sounds and his highlights will be
seeing Stan Walker, The Jordan
Luck Band, The Lady Killers and
Annie Crummer.

Liffey southern
walkway opens
The banks of the Liffey have taken on a new look along a popular lockdown walking route in Lincoln.
A new 450 metre walkway along the Liffey Stream between Southfield Drive and Jimmy Adams
Terrace was officially opened last week, after the last of more than 3400 plants was planted along
the route.
It completes walkway links from the Lincoln town centre to the wetlands and restores a previously
overgrown section of the Liffey, Council Land Development Project Manager Phillip Millar says.
Contractors worked hard to have the walkway ready for use the day before the Level 4 Lockdown.
Councillor Grant Miller says the walkway proved popular during the lockdown.
“People were coming to use the walkway from other townships nearby because they loved it that
much, which gives you an idea of the quality of work that has gone on here.”
Final planting and landscaping was finished once restrictions were relaxed.
Pupils from the neighbouring Ararira Springs Primary and Lincoln University students helped plant
2600 native trees and plants, working alongside contractors Burnside Contracting, McLenaghan
Contracting and Natural Habitats.
Some existing plants and trees have been retained to blend with the native species supporting the
stream’s vibrant population of native fish and birds, Council Biodiversity Officer Andy Spanton says.
“We’re trying to do it in a way that it will look like what you would have found here 200 years ago.”
Tennyson Street reopens
The newly upgraded section of Tennyson Street through the Rolleston Town Centre has reopened.
Work began in January to upgrade the road to a people-friendly high street, with wider pavements, fresh
planting, seating, landscaping and lighting. Infrastructure for the town centre development is also being
installed. Landscaping and infrastructure work is ongoing and the temporary Markham Way extension
will remain in place for now.
Tennyson Street from the intersection with Rolleston Drive to the northern end of Rolleston Reserve is a
30kmh speed limit to encourage pedestrian and cycle use.
A community day is being planned by businesses in the area for Friday 24 July to celebrate the
reopening on the street.
The work on Tennyson Street is a first step for the new Rolleston Town Centre. It will act as the new
town centre’s spine, with a lively mix of retail, entertainment and community spaces, anchored by Te
Ara Ātea and a town square.
Flying end to Matariki and school holidays
Families are being invited to take part in a fun, flying end to Matariki and the school holidays.
Darfield School international students, Glentunnel School pupils, Lincoln Envirotown, the Two Rivers
Trust and the Council have all banded together to support the Selwyn Kite Day.
The making and flying of manu tukutuku (kites) is a traditional part of Māori celebrations for Matariki.
Kite making is an important part of celebrations in many cultures. For Matariki celebrations this year the
Council has joined with community groups and schools, embracing the multicultural love of kites, with
videos showing families how to make kites at little or no cost.
Darfield High School international students from Japan, Thailand
and Germany have worked with Lincoln Envirotown to create a
video with instructions on how to make a kite out of bamboo canes
and repurposed plastic bags.
Pupils at Glentunnel School and volunteers from the Two Rivers
Community trust produced video guides on making two versions of
a Māori manu taratahi (a triangular shaped kite).
Families are encouraged to use the videos to make their own kites
and join others across the district in flying them on Kite Day on
Sunday 19 July from 1pm. Two Rivers Trust will also be hosting a
kite flying event at Darfield Domain from 3pm on the day.
To learn about how to make your kite visit selwyn.govt.nz/matariki.
Youth Fund supporting rangatahi
Traditional games and Top Town challenges were part of a first
Tamariki Day for Ngāi Te Ruahikihiki ki Taumutu.
Ngāi Te Ruahikihiki ki Taumutu hosted the day, for young people
associated with the rūnanga at the start of the year. The day
was supported by the Selwyn Youth Project Fund, which is open
for applications.
A group of 120 young people attended the event at Te Pā o Moki,
supported by Sports Canterbury and University of Canterbury
Masters students. They enjoyed games and challenges designed to
foster health, relationships and cultural understanding, Te Taumutu
Rūnanga chairperson Liz Brown says.
“We were blessed with beautiful weather when we split into two
groups for Top Town challenges at Awhitu House and traditional
games at Te Pā o Moki. Our focus of the day was tamariki and
rakatahi wellbeing, being active within our environments.
“We had our friends from Selwyn Libraries attend with the Edge
Connector Vehicle, this allows our tamariki to register to be a
member of Selwyn Libraries. What a great day for all Ngāi Te
Ruahikihiki ki Taumutu whānau!"
Up to $5,000 in funds is available from the Selwyn Youth Project
Fund, run by the Youth Council to support groups and individuals
with events or activities that support the wellbeing of youth in Selwyn.
So if you have a cool idea, or a plan in place (big or small) to deliver
something great for the community, the Selwyn Youth Council is
keen to hear from you.
For criteria and to apply visit selwyn.govt.nz/youthcouncil or email
youth.council@selwyn.govt.nz if you have any questions.

As part of our Selwyn Open campaign we’re profiling some of the many excellent businesses local to
you. You can find these businesses on the Selwyn Business Directory at selwyn.govt.nz/directory.
This week we talk to Shelley Bakker from Recycle Recreate.
Ever wondered what happens to bouncy castles at the end of their life? Mostly they end up in landfill
or the ocean. But in the hands of Recycle Recreate founder Shelley Bakker, they become bags, wallets
and pouches.
A Prebbleton resident of 14 years, Shelley has always had a passion for creating and being sustainable.
Starting with making produce bags under her brand Bags Not Plastic, she now sells a range of recycled
products internationally, at the Lincoln and Prebbleton markets, and even delivers some by bike.
Shelley has a passion for finding these materials, at second hand stores, blind makers, seatbelt
replacers and other contacts.
A red seatbelt from a Porsche is now a wallet, old tents get turned into ponchos, air bags from shipping
containers become frost covers and those panniers attached to Shelley’s delivery bike used to be
billboard signs.
“I try to use as much as I can of each material. Some of my items are just one-offs. I like the excitement
of making something totally new and unique.”
By buying local you support Selwyn families and reduce your carbon footprint, she says.
“It’s the sustainable side of shopping locally because you’re
buying quality local made goods that are going to last,
compared to super cheap things from overseas.”
From supporting school fundraisers to helping run a popular
clothing swap and organising the Prebbleton Market, Shelley is
active in her community and continually sharing her message
about sustainability.
“My main thing is keeping stuff out of landfill and educating
people. Most people think it’s impossible to aim for zero waste,
however if every person just changed one thing, it will make a
huge difference.”

Southbridge came out on
top 20-15 after the scores were
tied 10-10 at half-time. Neither
side gave any quarter in a tense
battle.
Waihora gets this weekend off
with the bye while Southbridge,
alone at the top-of-the-table,
should have a relatively troublefree
appointment with Hornby.
Hornby put up a much more
spirited performance on Saturday
against West Melton, going down
11-27. But they will be no match
for the competition juggernaut,
Southbridge.
Lincoln’s will have home
ground advantage in their bid to
get the season on track against a

In with
the New!
Well-known furniture retailer Target Furniture has taken
the opportunity to open their latest store in central
Christchurch – and it is certainly different from anything
Christchurch shoppers have seen before.
Target Furniture has had a long-term presence in
Christchurch and has now relocated and reinvented
the shopping experience for customers with this new
concept store.
The large, open store has gone and been replaced with
a showroom that encourages customers to explore and
discover more as they stroll through rooms that have
been created to showcase the furniture. Target has
partnered with Resene to illustrate the types of colours
that are proving popular in New Zealand homes, and
these are incorporated into the displays.
“Furniture shopping should be fun, easy, inspirational
and a highlight of the customer’s shopping year,” says
Rob.
“The new store is a result of significant local and
international research, a considerable amount of recent
experimentation in existing stores and feedback from
customers,” says company director Rob Bielby.
Technology is another innovative feature of the new
store. Unlike traditional ticketing and signage, most of
the signage is now digital, creating a more personalised
message for customers and telling more about the
Target story and the services they offer.
Target is one of the first major retailers to use QR
(Quick Response) labels. This allows customers to scan
the ticket on their phone to get immediate access to
detailed information on the furniture, including sizes,
materials, guarantees, availability, and other items in the
range.
Brochures are also available with details of the different
furniture ranges for customers not wanting to go digital,
Rob says, while staff are always on hand to answer
questions and offer advice.
There is also a digital kiosk equipped with computers
where customers can log onto the Target website and
view the 2500-plus products online, with images also
displayed on Facebook and Instagram.
“We aim to highlight all the shopping options we offer
– digital and instore. Our point of difference is the
experience and we cater for all our customers’ shopping
preferences – from totally digital to totally bricks and
mortar.”

Prompt delivery is an important part of the customer
experience, Rob adds.
“We have invested in our own fleet of trucks and are
committed to regular weekly deliveries in Christchurch. Our
goal is to have furniture delivered into Christchurch within
10 days of being ordered, if it is available in our Auckland
distribution centre.”
Target Furniture is located on the ground-floor level of the
Spotlight building on the corner of Moorhouse Avenue and
Durham Street, with several other furniture outlets in the
vicinity.
“This encourages customers to the area as they have more
options to look at,” Rob says, “and while customers do
have a choice, we believe we know how to buy for Kiwi
homes, and offer furniture that gives people the chance to
add a dash of luxury to their home without it costing an arm
and a leg.
“Target is determined to shake up the traditional furniture
retail landscape making fashionable, practical and
affordable furniture available to everyone in a shopping
environment that surprises and delights.”
Target Moorhouse is the first of the new-generation stores
and the concept will be rolled out to all existing stores and
new stores that are planned.

Kiwifruit and lime - a match made in heaven
Ingredients
Gluten-free pecan crust
1 cup dates (pits removed)
1 cup raw pecans
½ cup coconut flakes
1 tbsp coconut oil
Pinch of sea salt
Filling and topping
2 cups raw unsalted cashews,
soaked
⅔ cups fresh squeezed lime juice
(about 4 limes)
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup maple syrup
½ cup full-fat coconut milk
(canned)
¼ cup avocado
¼ cup coconut oil
5-6 kiwifruit, peeled and sliced
Directions
Place the cashews in a large
bowl and pour hot water over top.
Let them to soak for 1 hour prior
to making the pie filling.
To make the crust: Add all of
the crust ingredients to a food
processor and process until quite
finely and evenly ground.
Add the crust mixture to either
a pie pan or a 20cm round cake
pan. If using a pie pan you do
not need to grease the pan or use
baking paper, and can simply
press the crust mixture down to
form a flat crust.
If using a round cake pan
instead you should line the pan
with baking paper that has been
cut in a circle to fit the bottom of
the pan.
You will also want to cut
two strips of baking paper to
approximately 5 x 35cm and
lie them criss-cross across the
bottom of the pan.
This will make the pie easy to
remove to serve from another
platter once frozen for a more
impressive presentation.
Add the crust mixture on top
of the paper layers and compress
it firmly to create a solid crust
by pressing firmly down using
your hands over another piece of
baking paper to prevent sticking.
To make the filling: Drain the
water from the cashews and place
them in a blender along with all
of the other ingredients for the
filling except for the kiwifruit.
Blend on high until smooth,
scraping the sides of the blender
with a spatula as needed.
Pour the filling over top of the
crust and freeze for 1-2 hours
until the pie is partially set.
Remove the pie from the
freezer and layer the sliced
kiwifruit in a decorative
arrangement on top of the pie.
Place the pie back into the
freezer and let set another 1-2
hours prior to serving. Store the
pie in the freezer and remove to
thaw for 30min to soften prior
to serving. Cut any leftovers into
individual portions so they can
easily be enjoyed as a single serve
dessert later instead of repeatedly
thawing out the entire pie.

Give Rural NZ a share of $3b
Federated Farmers has some advice for
how the Government should divvy up the
$3 billion infrastructure fund.
The COVID Response and Recovery
Fund was announced as part of Budget
2020, with Cabinet announcing how the
fund will be allocated.
The fund, aimed at creating 20,000 jobs
as part of “shovel ready” infrastructure
projects, is in addition to an existing $12
billion towards the New Zealand Upgrade
Programme and existing Provincial
Growth Fund investments.
Of the fund, $708 million will go
towards transport, $670 million towards
community and social development,
$464 million towards housing and urban
development, and $460 million towards
environmental projects.
Investments in the fund include about
$210 million for climate resilience and
flood protection projects, $155 million
for transformative energy projects, about
$180 million for large-scale construction
projects, and $50 million for enhanced
regional digital connectivity.
Federated Farmers President and
commerce spokesperson Andrew
Hoggard says the Government should
have an eye to building longer-term
resilience and putting in infrastructure
that underpins increased primary
industry production.
Following some of the worst droughts on
record, Hoggard says the Government’s
$210 million fund for
climate resilience and
flood protection is a
prime candidate for
boosting community
water storage.
He says the $708
million put aside for
transport shouldn’t
all go to expensive
trainsets, cycleways,
walkways and metro
motorways.
“There needs to be
increased investment
in the maintenance
and improvement
of rural roads and
bridges to better
support transport
connections heavily
relied upon by rural
and provincial people,”
says Hoggard.
“Many rural roads
are already in a poor
state and numerous
rural bridges are
past their designed
lifetimes.”
Hoggard says for the $670 million for
community development, investment
in improving the limited broadband
capability in rural areas — and not just
more communications hubs in provincial
towns — will help level the digital
divide between town and country and
support increased uptake of emerging
technologies on farms to lift productivity
and the nation’s earnings.
“As for the $155 million put aside for
energy projects, there’s a strong case
for improving the reliability of rural
electricity supply, and support for farmscale
and community-scale generation
that moves us further towards that
climate-friendly goal of 100% renewable
energy.”

Quality beef bulls wanted
Making quality beef genetics easier for dairy farmers
to access is the aim of a new industry partnership.
Beef + Lamb New Zealand (B+LNZ) Genetics and
LIC are collaborating to help fulfil growing demand
for beef genetics suitable for New Zealand dairy cows.
The collaboration has seen the creation of the
B+LNZ Genetics Dairy Beef Progeny Test, devised
to identify quality beef bulls and help enable their
widespread use for dairy beef.
Beef breeders can nominate their best bulls for
consideration for the programme, with successful
bulls then becoming part of the progeny test scheme.
B+LNZ Genetics and LIC says this will offer breeders
a potential path to the dairy market for the first time.
B+LNZ Genetics’ general manager, Dan Brier says
he is excited about the collaboration and says dairy
farmers are an important and valued part of B+LNZ.
LIC chief executive, Wayne McNee says the
collaboration helps add value to all stages of the dairy
beef market.
“Beef sales are likely to increase significantly over the
next decade and it is important LIC aligns itself with
industry leaders such as B+LNZ Genetics and beef
breeders to ensure the best beef bulls are available for
the domestic and international dairy markets.
“We know farmers are focused more than ever on
doing their bit to help reduce the number of bobby
calves leaving their properties and the addition of this
progeny test will further help with this objective.”
Nominations close 14 August with successful
farmers notified 28 August.

Mazda expands its SUV line-up
Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz
SELWYN TIMES
MAZDA COULDN’T put it more
simply, its new crossover sport
utility vehicle – the CX-30 – is
bigger than a CX-3 and smaller
than a CX-5.
I once wrote that the CX-3 was
my favourite car in the whole
Mazda line-up, but that feeling
wasn’t shared by everyone, it took
a lot of criticism for a lack of space
in the rear seating compartment.
My argument was that if you were
mostly driving with one or two-up,
then that became irrelevant.
Whichever way you look at it,
those who were captured by the
CX-3’s dynamics everywhere else
will find the CX-30 a fabulous
driving vehicle, and it gets the
benefit of extra space in the rear
seats, along with increased load
space. Of course, the CX-30
also shares the DNA of its other
stablemates that span a wide crosssection
of the SUV market, there’s
a size for all families depending on
how many travel in the vehicle on a
daily basis.
The CX-30 is also priced midway
between CX-3 and CX-5, there
are three variants – GSX, GTX
and Limited – the range starts at
$41,490 for a 2-litre model, the
other two are 2.5-litre powered
and list at $44,990 and $50,990
respectively. Factor in the 2.5-litre
variants are four-wheel-drive, the
2-litre engine drives out the front
wheels only.
I’m scheduled into all three
variants, and I’m really looking
forward to the two remaining
drives – the CX-30 is a smart piece
of kit, and if you have read any of
my recent Mazda evaluations you’ll
notice that a pattern has developed,
I’m constantly saying the product
that is coming out of the Mazda
factories is high on quality and
desire.
My first drive was the mid-spec
model, and even though it doesn’t
get all the bells and whistles it will
still satisfy, I particularly like it for
its cloth trim, I don’t need leather.
It took me many years to fully
relate to the traditional sport utility
vehicle, and now I can certainly see
their appeal through functionality
and practicality, and you can’t help
but being impressed with the way
the CX-30 drives and handles, it
has form and function built into
every aspect.
Under the bonnet sits the fourcylinder
2488cc engine, there are
no surprises here, it is an engine
that has been utilised by Mazda
for several years in this form. It’s
part of a SkyActive range that has
been constantly upgraded and
engineered for maximum efficiency
both in terms of power outputs and
fuel efficiency.
It is rated with 139kW and
252Nm, both outputs realised at
traditional points in the rev band
– 6000 and 4000rpm respectively.
TRENDY: The Mazda CX-30 offers traditional sport utility
vehicle capacity.
CX-30: Comprehensive series that fits seamlessly into Mazda’s range of SUVs.
The engine is coupled to a sixspeed
automatic transmission,
also very traditional. But the
reality of this is that over time
and development the two main
engineering pieces work perfectly
together, the electronic mapping
between the two is fluid and, of
course, very smooth.
This engine works well in the
CX-30, of course it feels more
responsive than what it does in
the CX-5 because of the weight
difference between the two models,
the CX-30 feels feisty and vibrant,
responding willingly to throttle
application and is always hooked
into the right gearing.
The norm these days is to
incorporate driver-selectable
engine management modes and
the CX-30 is no exception,
although there is just a choice of
two, the default mode being
a normal setting which I use
almost always. There is also a
sport mode which is selfexplanatory,
it is there for when
overtaking opportunities present
themselves and it is also useful
for that long hill climb through
to Akaroa, it keeps the engine
working in the point of strength
and maximum delivery.
Mazda claim fuel usage figures
of 6.8-litres per 100km for the
2.5 engine on a combined cycle
average. I tried reaching that figure
• Price – Mazda CX-30 GTX,
$44,990
• Dimensions – Length,
4395mm; width, 1795mm;
height, 1540mm
• Configuration – Fourcylinder,
four-wheel-drive,
2488cc, 139kW, 252Nm,
six-speed automatic
• Performance –
0-100km/h, 9.3sec
• Fuel usage – 6.8l/100km
as a target but couldn’t quite get
there. When I took the evaluation
vehicle back to the dealership it
was listing at around 7.4l/100km,
which was promisingly close.
At 100km/h on the highway the
engine is quite relaxed working
away at 1900rpm, at that speed
it sips fuel instantaneously at the
rate of 6l/100km. That translates to
economical motoring if you are on
that long road trip.
As you would expect from a
company that has long had a
history of sports car development,
the CX-30 also handles with a
feel that is most unlike a tall sport
utility vehicle. Sure, at 1.54m there
is a bit of body movement, even
with moderate spring and damper
firming there is going to be some
gravitational transition, but it
is well arrested and occupants
aren’t lurched through directional
changes.
I took the evaluation on a burst
up and down the twists and turns
of the Waimakariri River gorge
road and it felt delightful with solid
turn-in and suspension freedom,
he latter garnered through the fourwheel
fully independent system.
Obviously it needs that design to
get drive to the rear wheels, but
the point I’m making is that the
suspension is quality through
and through and is the perfect
compromise between comfort and
handling ability.
It must also be pointed out that
four-wheel-drive also has on-seal
grip and handling benefits, the
CX-30 feels well attached to the
road surface and that is a key safety
ingredient. It works alongside the
suite of safety features that Mazda
has long developed in all of its
product range.
The CX-30 is far more than a
stretched CX-3, it draws on all the
fundamentals sport utility vehicles
require, and packages them in a
comprehensive range.
As much as I’m looking forward
to getting into the other variants,
I’m also a huge believer in the
CX-3.
The choice as a buyer must be
very complicated, but it’s great
to know that Mazda has all bases
covered.
From family cars to work trucks and
supercars to fixer-uppers.
No matter what you're looking for, you
can find it all with Drivesouth.

SELWYN TIMES
Plan your summer vege garden
JULY IS ONE of the more
difficult winter months in the
home garden. It is often wet and
cold – conditions that are not
conducive to working in the
garden.
However, on days that are clear
and sunny, there are many tasks
requiring attention.
Plant flowering annuals for
pops of colour
Displays of flowering annuals
can add a little cheer and colour
in a dreary winter garden, whether
grown in flower beds, containers
or decks and patios. Primulas
are often at their absolute best in
July. With all flowering annuals,
commence dead heading (the
removal of dead flowers) to encourage
continuous flowering.
Winter flowering annuals
include ageratum, calendulas,
cinerarias, cornflowers, nemesias,
pansies, poppies, primulas, snapdragons,
stock and sweet peas.
growth and tie down fruiting
leaders on frames or wires.
In warm sheltered areas, citrus
can now be harvested, mandarins,
lemons, limes, and navel oranges.
Berries
It’s the final month for pruning
vigorous growing berry
fruit, raspberries, boysenberries,
loganberries, loganberries, and
gooseberries. Remove all the old
growth and reduce the amount of
last summer’s canes. Tie the canes
to existing wires or framework.
Lawns
There is little work to do on
lawns this month and it is often
best to keep off them if they have
become excessively wet. Moss
may occur in wet, shady parts of
the lawn but this is no cause for
alarm as it will disappear over
the dry summer months. Do take
Vegetable garden
Continue harvesting your
winter vegetables and regularly
inspect your plants for slugs and
snails. They appear to be hardier
every year!
If you have sown a green crop
this year, then towards the end of
the month or August (once plants
are about 30cm and before they
flower) chop it up dig it into existing
soil in preparation for spring
plantings. Green crops help improve
soil structure and provide
organic Nitrogen naturally.
Now is a good time to plan
your summer vegetable garden.
Following the experience of the
Covid-19 outbreak, consider expanding
the area of your summer
vegetable garden and the range of
vegetables that you can grow.
Fruit trees and kiwifruit
Finish pruning deciduous
(sheds leaves in autumn) fruit
trees. Spray with a copper compound
to help prevent re-infection
of fungal diseases in spring.
Kiwifruit vines can now be
pruned. Remove all the surplus
note of areas that retain water
long after heavy rain as they may
require additional drainage to be
installed in summer.
Trees and shrubs
An excellent time to carry out
any further tree or shrub plantings
on your property. Always
select healthy ‘vigorous’ looking
new specimens and ensure they
are ‘fit for purpose’ i.e. they will
achieve what you require where
they are planted. When planting,
pop in a planter tab to give them
the best start.
Rose pruning commences
Most roses have now shed their
leaves and can be pruned. Remove
all dead or diseased wood,
remember most rose bushes, even
though quite healthy, will have
BUSY: If you are planting trees this winter make sure they are
fit for purpose. Flowering annuals will add a little cheer to a
dreary winter garden. Prune your berries this month.
some dead wood.
Prune to outward facing buds
and remove any wood that is
thinner than pencil thickness. If
some plants have a lot of dead/
diseased wood, it is advisable
to remove the specimens and
replace with new rose bushes.
With climbing roses, train the
main leaders (growing up from
ground) on a horizontal axis as
this encourages the production of
flowers.
With all roses, a spray with copper
compound after the completion
of pruning helps minimise
reinfection of fungal disease in
spring.

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

Knowing what could happen
if you can’t complete a sale
Life can sometimes take an unexpected
turn when you’re buying a house.
Knowing what could happen to your
deposit and sale and purchase agreement
if your circumstances suddenly change
and you are unable to complete the
deal will leave you in a much stronger
position.
“There are many “what-ifs” to consider
when buying a home and I urge you to
talk through your concerns with your
lawyer or conveyancer as soon as your
circumstances change,” says Real Estate
Authority (REA) chief executive, Kevin
Lampen-Smith.
“A sale and purchase agreement is a
legally binding contract between you and
the seller, which becomes unconditional
once the allocated time for meeting
your conditions has been reached,” says
Lampen-Smith.
“Once the agreement for sale and
purchase becomes unconditional, then
you not only don’t get your deposit back,
but also face the likelihood of having
to purchase the property – even if you
can’t afford to – or having to cancel the
agreement and be sued for any loss the
seller suffers as a result of you failing to
settle the sale. So, if your circumstances
suddenly change, you’ll need to speak to
your lawyer as soon as possible.”
Getting finances sorted to buy a
property isn’t easy, but understanding
the different deposits when you buy a
house can help. There are two different
kinds of deposits – the deposit you pay
when you make an offer and your bank
deposit.
A buyer will usually be required to pay
a deposit when the sale and purchase
agreement is signed by both parties. The
deposit paid is often about 10 per cent of
the total price you are offering – you can
negotiate a different rate if you need to –
and is usually held in a trust account by
the real estate agent. The real estate agent
takes their commission fee out of this
amount when the agreement becomes
unconditional and the remaining balance
goes to the seller.
When you arrange a home loan with
a bank, you must have a certain amount
of funds to use as a deposit – your bank
deposit. This deposit will more than
likely be different from the amount your
sale and purchase agreement states that
you must pay the seller. For example,
your bank may need you to have 20 per
cent of the purchase price available as
a bank deposit in order to secure your
mortgage, even if you only have to pay
the seller a 10 per cent deposit.
“When drawing up a sale and purchase
agreement, you can include conditions of
the sale, such as a title search, valuation,
LIM report, obtaining finance, obtaining
insurance and builder’s inspection,”
Lampen-Smith says.
“Including conditions can really help
– you can even negotiate your sale and
purchase deposit.”

Your guide to Show Homes & New Sections
in the Selwyn District
Quality with appealing features
Imagination, efficient use of space and
a quality build are all apt descriptors of
Golden Homes’ new showhome at The
Borough.
Located in Faringdon’s latest showhome
village, this beautiful 168sqm home sits
well on its 540sqm section, making it
a must-see for anyone looking to build
under 200sqm (especially first home
buyers).
A standout point in the showhome, is
the thought which has gone into its design,
fittings and features.
Slats have been used to create division
between the lounge and living area while
built-in cabinetry in the dining room
provides a window seat and storage space,
all in one. There is also a wider than usual
study nook with built-in cabinetry.
A cathedral ceiling runs through the
lounge and living area. Along with this,
a generous number of windows and two
sliders, make for a light, spacious living
space. In the living area, a double stacker
leads out to a patio, while a second slider
accesses a rear patio and the garden from
the dining room.
Features within the kitchen, include
engineered stone bench tops; black sinks
with tower faucet in the kitchen island
where there is also room to sit, mingle or
dine; a dishwasher, induction cooktop and
built in oven; and a walk-in pantry.
A little luxury has been incorporated
into the master bedroom where there
is a walk-in robe and ensuite with tiled
floor and walk-in shower. Popular with
viewers is the LED heated mirrors in both
bathrooms.
LED lighting, a RibRaft foundation and
RAB board bracing (giving a rigid bearing,
as well as thermal and acoustic break)
are all standard to Golden Homes, as is
wallpaper feature walls, engineered stone
bench tops and a heat pump.
“Our philosophy is to be transparent
with everything inclusive so buyers know
what they are getting. This is especially
important for first home buyers. We
provide clients with a quote which
includes the driveway, patios, pathways,
letter box, boundary and internal fencing
with a gate, and clothesline,” advises Dean
McGuigan, Director of Golden Homes
Canterbury.
Dean and his sales team are passionate
about quality and building a ‘better home’,
right down to the smallest detail like the
hardware chosen and use of solid timber
for skirtings, doorways and windows,
as well as fire retardant lining under the
roofing iron.
Golden Homes’ has received positive
feedback on their latest Faringdon
showhome. House and land packages for
this home come under $550,000 (GST
inclusive) when sited on a 460-500sqm
section.
Golden Homes’ The Borough
showhome is located at 45 Lanner Drive,
The Borough, Faringdon, Rolleston, and
is open: 12noon to 4pm, every day.
Show homes
the ultimate way to shop around
Across the selwyn district, we are blessed with an
extensive array of very good quality show homes.
Building companies build show homes
to demonstrate their workmanship,
display innovative design ideas and
present a snapshot into a new and
luxurious lifestyle, featuring all the
latest in materials, fittings and fixtures.
A show home can inspire you in a way
nothing else can. You can absorb the
ambiance they present and admire the
innovative techniques, new materials
and technology.
You can ask questions, take notes
and compare. You can see at a glance
features you would love to emulate or
would avoid when building your home.
Best of all, you ;will see the building
companies’ attention to detail.
Show homes are the perfect way to get
a good idea of pricing, discover good
quality and value, learn about superior
use of space, future-proofing, ongoing
maintenance and long-term returns.
So what are you waiting for? Check
out our maps, grab a notepad and
pencil and begin the exciting project of
building your own home.
