Spring<br />

Show<br />

There’s probably only one time you can pour cold water on the coach and Hamish Maw took the initiative<br />

after his Southbridge side claimed the Coleman Shield with a 40-32 win over Waihora at Southbridge on<br />

Saturday. Victorious coach Reece Allen ducked but still got the dousing.<br />

ONE OF the district’s biggest<br />

events has been cancelled because<br />

of Covid.<br />

The <strong>Selwyn</strong> Spring Show<br />

in Leeston was scheduled for<br />

October 17 but because of<br />

uncertainty<br />

over Covid,<br />

organisers have<br />

had no option<br />

but to pull the<br />

plug.<br />

The event<br />

attracted<br />

12,000 people<br />

last year. Andrew Benny<br />

Said Andrew<br />

Benny, president of the Ellesmere<br />

A&P Association which organises<br />

the show: “The association had<br />

been really positive during the<br />

more relaxed Covid levels that the<br />

show could carry on. However,<br />

with the second wave having<br />

arrived and the extended level<br />

2 restriction period, it has now<br />

made holding the <strong>2020</strong> show<br />

untenable.”<br />

A GREAT photo on<br />

the front page today of<br />

victorious Southbridge<br />

coach Reece Allen getting<br />

the treatment in the sheds<br />

after the Coleman Shield<br />

win on Saturday.<br />

The match was an arm<br />

wrestle; Waihora was<br />

marginally ahead at halftime<br />

before a Dan Carter<br />

converted try early in the<br />

second half gave Southbridge<br />

the breathing room it<br />

needed.<br />

The Covid situation meant<br />

the crowd was limited on<br />

Saturday, otherwise the<br />

anticipated great contest,<br />

coupled with the fact Carter<br />

was playing, would have<br />

packed the ground out.<br />

On a disappointing note,<br />

really bad form to see a pig<br />

spray painted, leg cut off,<br />

paraded around on a car and<br />

dumped (page 4).<br />

I hope it met a humane<br />

end.<br />

There are some ‘you know<br />

House prices continue to rise<br />

Median house prices in<br />

the district<br />

• By Devon Bolger<br />

MEDIAN HOUSE prices in the<br />

district are on the rise.<br />

New figures from Core<br />

Logic show the median in each<br />

township has increased from last<br />

year.<br />

Darfield had the highest<br />

increase with a three and a half<br />

per cent jump to $441,900 from<br />

$427,100 in 2019.<br />

The median<br />

house value<br />

in Tai Tapu<br />

has increased<br />

by $20,450 or<br />

three per cent<br />

in the last year<br />

and now sits at<br />

Brendan<br />

Shefford<br />

$696,700.<br />

Ray White<br />

Town and<br />

Lifestyle Real<br />

Estate owner agent Brendan<br />

Shefford said the district has<br />

been filled with optimism since<br />

returning from lockdown.<br />

“The relaxation of loan to value<br />

ratios, extremely low-interest<br />

rates and returning kiwis has<br />

seen a surge of highly motivated<br />

buyers in the market,” he said.<br />

“We open over 40 homes<br />

each week across <strong>Selwyn</strong> which<br />

means our buyer pool is growing<br />

week by week and buyers are<br />

competing to own.”<br />

RISING: This house on Craigieburn St in Darfield is listed on Trade Me with an asking price<br />

of $475,000. ​<br />

Shefford said the advantage to<br />

the seller is evident in the results<br />

they are achieving and backs up<br />

recent reports on the median<br />

price increases.<br />

Harcourts Lincoln principal<br />

officer James Twiss said the<br />

increase in Darfield is related to<br />

historically low housing prices.<br />

“It is good value for money and<br />

a jump in median is following<br />

the market trend where houses,<br />

like in Darfield, which are<br />

sub $500,000 can be a good<br />

investment as a rental.<br />

“Also if you are first home<br />

buyer you can purchase a home<br />

that doesn’t break the bank and<br />

take advantage of record lowinterest<br />

rates,’ he said.<br />

He said West Melton, on the<br />

other hand, has seen prices<br />

increasing over the last three<br />

years which keeps pace with the<br />

rest of the country’s growth in<br />

that period.<br />

This has led to the smallest<br />

increase in the district of 0.2 per<br />

cent to $831,100 which is also the<br />

highest median.<br />

“Essentially the market in West<br />

Melton is probably not seen to<br />

offer as much value and given<br />

housing stocks there are higher<br />

value and newer than other<br />

markets, this makes sense.”<br />

West Melton: $831,100,<br />

2019 – $829,550 (0.2 per<br />

cent or $1550 increase)<br />

Rolleston: $570,300,<br />

2019 – $561,700 (1.5 per<br />

cent or $8,600 increase)<br />

Lincoln: $629,050, 2019<br />

– $6<strong>16</strong>,750 (2 per cent or<br />

$12,300 increase)<br />

Tai Tapu: $696,700, 2019<br />

– $676,250 (3 per cent or<br />

$20,450 increase)<br />

Prebbleton: $769,450,<br />

2019 – $760,950 (1.1 per<br />

cent or $8,500 increase)<br />

Springston: $530,050,<br />

2019 - $531,850 (0.6 per<br />

cent or $3200 increase)<br />

Leeston: $448,400, 2019<br />

– $438,900 (2.2 per cent<br />

or $9,500 increase)<br />

Darfield: $441,900, 2019<br />

– $427,100 (3.5 per cent<br />

or $14,800 increase)<br />

Dead pig dumped in Lincoln<br />

LINCOLN residents<br />

are appalled a dead pig<br />

painted blue was dumped<br />

in the township and seen<br />

by young children.<br />

The pig, which also<br />

had a leg cut off, had<br />

earlier been seen in<br />

Lincoln tied to the bonnet<br />

of a vehicle. The vehicle<br />

was parked outside a flat<br />

which is occupied by<br />

students.<br />

One resident said the<br />

pig was seen by his young<br />

grandchildren in the<br />

Liffey Stream. They were<br />

distressed by the sight of it.<br />

The district council<br />

told the <strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong><br />

it had received a call on<br />

Sunday, <strong>September</strong> 6<br />

from a member of the<br />

public saying the pig,<br />

spray pained blue, had<br />

been dumped on a berm<br />

in Gerald St, near Kildare<br />

Tce.<br />

The council arranged<br />

for it to be removed by<br />

a contractor and safely<br />

disposed of, a spokesman<br />

said.<br />

Countdown decision soon<br />

• By Devon Bolger<br />

A DECISION on<br />

whether a Countdown<br />

supermarket will be built<br />

in Lincoln is expected<br />

within weeks.<br />

District council<br />

planning manager Ben<br />

Rhodes said the hearing,<br />

which began in late July,<br />

has been adjourned for<br />

additional expert evidence<br />

and the applicant’s right<br />

of reply.<br />

Once the information<br />

is provided, the<br />

commissioner will close<br />

the hearing.<br />

Once it is closed, the<br />

commissioner has 15<br />

working days to issue a<br />

decision.<br />

“We anticipate having<br />

a decision on the consent<br />

DELAY: A decision<br />

on granting<br />

resource consent<br />

for a Countdown<br />

supermarket in Lincoln<br />

is still to be made. ​<br />

around the end of<br />

<strong>September</strong>/early October.”<br />

Lincoln Developments<br />

Ltd applied to build<br />

and operate a 3063m 2<br />

supermarket in the<br />

Flemington subdivision<br />

on Birchs Rd in Lincoln<br />

between 7am and 10pm<br />

seven days a week.<br />

The district council<br />

received 72 submissions<br />

on the application.<br />

Twenty-three<br />

submissions were in<br />

opposition, two were<br />

neutral and 47 supported<br />

the development.<br />

Earlier this year,<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong> reported<br />

a group of Flemington<br />

residents opposed the<br />

proposed location for the<br />

supermarket.<br />

In May, after speaking<br />

with some of the<br />

residents who oppose the<br />

supermarket, Flemington<br />

developer Shane Kennedy<br />

modified the plans.<br />

“We’ve significantly<br />

improved the external<br />

design of the building to<br />

reduce the visual scale<br />

and improve the external<br />

appearance, added more<br />

trees to the car park and<br />

the street frontage.”<br />

• From page 1<br />

The cancellation is also a<br />

blow to Leeston businesses.<br />

Crate and Barrel Leeston<br />

owner Craig Bradford said<br />

it is very disappointing as<br />

it is a huge event for the<br />

community each year.<br />

“It’s the biggest show in<br />

Canterbury because it is<br />

the first one of the year.<br />

It’s important for us out<br />

in Leeston and also the<br />

surrounding townships,”<br />

he said.<br />

Benny said the upside<br />

is they will be even more<br />

prepared for a better celebration<br />

next year.<br />

This year’s show would<br />

have marked the 150th<br />

anniversary of the show. It<br />

is anticipated it would be<br />

celebrated in October 2021,<br />

said Benny.<br />

Benny said the Ellesmere<br />

A&P Show Association<br />

would like to thank its<br />

members, sponsors, exhibitors,<br />

judges and stewards<br />

for their patience and<br />

support.<br />

It would also like to<br />

Cats out of draft animal bylaw<br />

• By Devon Bolger<br />

CATS ARE unlikely to need to<br />

be microchipped in the district.<br />

The contentious issue took<br />

another step when district councillors<br />

voted to adopt a draft<br />

animal control bylaw on the<br />

condition rules around cats were<br />

removed from it.<br />

The draft as it was presented<br />

did include provisions for the<br />

mandatory microchipping and<br />

desexing of cats.<br />

District council staff will now<br />

go back and remove the section<br />

about cats from the draft before<br />

it goes out for public consultation<br />

next month.<br />

If a large number of submitters<br />

call for the rules around cats to<br />

be included after<br />

all, the decision<br />

could be overturned.<br />

The bylaw on<br />

the keeping of<br />

animals (other<br />

Grant Miller<br />

than dogs),<br />

poultry and bees<br />

was presented<br />

to a district council meeting last<br />

week.<br />

Councillor Grant Miller said<br />

he cats should be left out of the<br />

bylaw, as enforcement was nearly<br />

impossible.<br />

“We have a history of being<br />

very good at not using laws<br />

when education will do a better<br />

job,” he told the meeting,” he<br />

said.<br />

“This is an opportunity when<br />

we could use our skills with<br />

other organisations, like the<br />

SPCA, to create a document<br />

which isn’t a bylaw but an education<br />

process.”<br />

Cr Murray Lemon agreed and<br />

seconded the motion.<br />

Miller said the cat owners in<br />

the district generally do desex<br />

and microchip their cats already.<br />

It follows a meeting in March<br />

where district councillors voted<br />

Drink driver<br />

found by police<br />

slumped over<br />

steering wheel<br />

• By Devon Bolger<br />

A MOTORIST in his early 30s,<br />

over three times the legal alcohol<br />

limit, was found slumped over the<br />

steering wheel of his car early on<br />

Saturday morning.<br />

Senior Sergeant Dean Harker<br />

said the driver, who lives in<br />

the district, refused to get out<br />

of the vehicle parked on<br />

Springston-Rolleston Rd when<br />

police arrived.<br />

After officers got the man<br />

out of the vehicle he was taken<br />

to the Rolleston Police Station<br />

where he recorded a reading of<br />

250mcg/L.<br />

Harker said the man would not<br />

tell police if he had been drinking<br />

at an establishment before driving<br />

but he had been drinking in his<br />

car.<br />

The motorist was one of six<br />

people caught drink driving in<br />

the district over the weekend.<br />

About 80 per cent of them recorded<br />

readings over 1000mcg/L,<br />

Harker said.<br />

The ages of the offenders range<br />

from under 20 to mid-70s.<br />

“There were really really<br />

high readings, which is very<br />

disappointing. It doesn’t seem like<br />

the message is sinking in.”<br />

Great week for trainer fighting cancer<br />

• By Joshua Smith<br />

LUMINOSITY’S recent win<br />

at Addington Raceway capped<br />

what can only be described as<br />

a great week for trainer Bruce<br />

Hutton.<br />

The Greendale horseman has<br />

been through a rough couple of<br />

years with cancer and has been<br />

given some positive news from<br />

his specialist.<br />

“I had a stem cell transplant<br />

for lymphoma cancer in January,”<br />

Hutton said.<br />

“We had a really good report<br />

and everything looks good. The<br />

hematologist gave me a five-star<br />

rating when I was talking to<br />

him. All the tests are showing<br />

that things are good.”<br />

Hutton had previously<br />

undergone chemotherapy<br />

five years ago. But the cancer<br />

resurfaced 18 months ago and<br />

Hutton began a year long path to<br />

undergo a stem cell transplant.<br />

“I had a round of chemo about<br />

five years ago and then I went<br />

into remission,” Hutton said.<br />

“I got a bit back 18 months ago<br />

and it was a 12 month process<br />

of treatments from there. I spent<br />

three weeks in hospital in January<br />

while they did the transplant.<br />

You have to stay in an<br />

immune environment because<br />

your system is compromised.”<br />

While Hutton has been<br />

through a lot in the last five<br />

years, he has a positive outlook<br />

and is looking forward to the<br />

future.<br />

“The front window of your<br />

car is bigger than your rear view<br />

mirror for a reason, so you have<br />

to look forward not backwards,”<br />

he said.<br />

“We are out to seeing the specialist<br />

every six months now, so<br />

at this stage it is all systems go.”<br />

BETTER TIMES: Greendale trainer Bruce Hutton with promising trotter Luminosity.<br />

Buoyed by the positive news,<br />

Hutton was looking forward<br />

to lining up his consistent<br />

trotter Luminosity and he was<br />

delighted when she recorded her<br />

maiden victory.<br />

“She is pretty royally bred, so<br />

it always looks better if they can<br />

get into the stud book with a<br />

win to their name. We are pretty<br />

pleased about that,” Hutton said.<br />

PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN<br />

Luminosity was bred by<br />

Hutton, who co-owns her with<br />

stable client Brent Smith.<br />

“Brent Smith has been an owner<br />

since I started training 30 years<br />

ago and he has stuck with me<br />

through thick and thin,” Hutton<br />

said.<br />

In Brief<br />

FIRST PAST THE POST<br />

District council elections in<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> will continue to use<br />

the option of using either the<br />

First Past the Post or Single<br />

Transferable Vote electoral<br />

system for their triennial<br />

elections. The district council<br />

will now publicly notify<br />

the resolution, including<br />

notification that electors have<br />

the right to demand a poll<br />

at any time to override the<br />

decision.<br />

months. Stage two of the<br />

project is scheduled to begin<br />

BACKYARD CRITTERS<br />

Mike Bowie is an ecologist who specialises in entomology<br />

(insects and other invertebrates). Each week he introduces<br />

a new species found in his backyard at Lincoln. His column<br />

Household ant a minor pest<br />

WE HAVE approximately<br />

44 ant species in New<br />

Zealand, however, only a<br />

quarter are endemic to our<br />

shores.<br />

Most of the other 33<br />

introduced species are from<br />

Australia and we can expect<br />

to see more of their massive<br />

1300 species here in the<br />

future with milder winters<br />

and hotter summers.<br />

The black household ant<br />

(Ochetellus glaber) is one<br />

of these ants and was first<br />

recorded in Whangarei in<br />

1927, but by 1943 was well<br />

established in Auckland.<br />

It has slowly moved<br />

south reaching Nelson<br />

around 2005 and Christchurch<br />

around 2013. The<br />

species has been regularly<br />

PROLIFIC: The black<br />

household ant is well<br />

established in New<br />

Zealand.<br />

intercepted from Australia<br />

and is often associated<br />

with plant materials such<br />

as wooden poles, fruits and<br />

plants.<br />

It is also found in China,<br />

India, Japan, the United<br />

States, Philippines, Lord<br />

Howe Island, New Caledonia,<br />

Norfolk Islands, New<br />

Hebrides, Solomon Islands,<br />

India and Réunion.<br />

The worker ants are<br />

brown or black in colour,<br />

2-2.5mm in length and<br />

have 12-segmented antennae.<br />

Ochetellus glaber is an<br />

arboreal nester and can<br />

be observed forming long<br />

trails up trees, fence-posts<br />

and buildings, occasionally<br />

coming inside houses.<br />

The ants are omnivores,<br />

feeding on honeydew<br />

produced by aphids, mealy<br />

bugs and scale insects, but<br />

also dead animals, plants,<br />

seeds and fat.<br />

Although considered<br />

a minor pest, it does not<br />

sting but does have a<br />

characteristic odour when<br />

squashed.<br />

THE PLANTING season<br />

has begun for the Te Ara<br />

Kakariki Trust which is<br />

aiming for its 100th ‘green dot’<br />

site this year.<br />

The trust is aiming to link<br />

the Canterbury foothills to<br />

Banks Peninsula through the<br />

planting of a series of small<br />

forests or ‘green dots’<br />

The trust started planting in<br />

2009 and will plant its 100th<br />

site next month.<br />

The trust was also expected<br />

to plant its 100,000th plant on<br />

Trust co-ordinator Letitia<br />

“We’re planting extra<br />

totara at each site this year<br />

and we’re distributing them<br />

through the community for a<br />

koha.”<br />

She said the Te Ara Kākāriki<br />

trustees and co-ordinators<br />

are incredibly proud to have<br />

reached the milestones.<br />

“The trust has grown a lot<br />

since our first year when we<br />

planted 1000 plants to large<br />

people involved.<br />

“We’re also really proud of<br />

the landowners and volunteers<br />

who have joined over the years<br />

in our mission to create the<br />

greenway.”<br />

Lum said they need<br />

many more green dots to<br />

achieve their goal as birds<br />

Help design your space in<br />

town centre reserve<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> residents are being asked to help design proposed new community public spaces in the<br />

redevelopment of Rolleston Reserve.<br />

The proposals are part of the wider Rolleston town centre project, and over the past year we’ve<br />

been consulting with the community about options for the reserve.<br />

We’re now proposing to include a sensory garden and a youth space in the reserve, along<br />

with open green space with new trees and paths. Consultation on these proposals is open till<br />

Wednesday 21 October.<br />

For the proposed youth space, the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Youth Council surveyed students at the district’s high<br />

schools for initial ideas, which include a dance floor, outdoor climbing wall, parkour balls, and a<br />

media space.<br />

The sensory garden is planned to be a space that is accessible to everyone including those with<br />

diverse needs. Students at Waitaha School helped with initial ideas, such as wheelchair-friendly<br />

access, quiet spaces, scented flowers and colour used for wayfinding and paths.<br />

The Council is keen to hear thoughts on these ideas for both the spaces, to help design spaces<br />

everyone can fully enjoy and embrace as their own.<br />

The Council is also consulting on proposed roading changes in the town centre. Hearings will be<br />

held in November, if required, where people can present their submissions on both the roading<br />

changes and those to the reserve, the youth space and sensory gardens.<br />

New Rolleston Drive intersection work beginning<br />

Work to extend Markham Way and create a new intersection at Rolleston Drive and Dryden Avenue will<br />

begin next week.<br />

Work will begin at the Markham Way end of the extension on Monday 21 <strong>September</strong> and move towards<br />

Rolleston Drive, with the new intersection as the final stage of construction.<br />

The work is expected to be completed by February 2021, depending on the weather, or other work<br />

restrictions due to Covid-19.<br />

Rolleston Drive and Norman Kirk Drive will remain open throughout the upgrade, with short periods<br />

where each street will be reduced to one lane. This will be done outside of peak hours and we will keep<br />

users updated on this via the Council Facebook page, website and Council Call.<br />

The site will be fenced and a fenced pedestrian access way will be in place from Rolleston Drive to<br />

Rolleston School to ensure safe pedestrian access around the site.<br />

The new intersection and extension of Markham Way will help with traffic flow into Rolleston, easing<br />

congestion on Rolleston Drive, provide additional access to the new town centre and <strong>Selwyn</strong> Health<br />

Hub and improve safety for pedestrians, particularly school pupils and families.<br />

Thank you for your patience while we carry out this upgrade.<br />

Opportunity for students to follow their dreams<br />

The Council is offering <strong>Selwyn</strong> students support to follow their dreams and achieve.<br />

Applications for the Council’s Tertiary Scholarships are open till the end of <strong>September</strong>. Scholarships of<br />

up to $3000 are available for year 12 and 13 students who live and study in <strong>Selwyn</strong> and are planning<br />

to undertake full-time post-secondary school education or training at a recognised New Zealand<br />

university, polytechnic or training institution next year.<br />

Scholarships will be available for students who have achieved outstanding success in academic, sports,<br />

cultural, arts, social responsibility, or other areas, or have overcome barriers or hardships to achieve.<br />

The scholarship provides payment towards fees and costs associated with buying books and<br />

equipment required for their study or training.<br />

Successful applicants are expected to be announced at the end of year school prize giving awards. To<br />

find out more about the scholarships, including application forms, students can visit selwyn.govt.nz/<br />

NZDF connects to <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

District wastewater network<br />

The New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF) and the Council have<br />

signed an agreement enabling Burnham Military Camp to connect<br />

to the Council’s wastewater network.<br />

As part of the agreement, NZDF will build a new wastewater pump<br />

station, pipeline and emergency storage tanks at the Burnham Military<br />

Camp. Wastewater from the camp will be pumped to the Pines<br />

Wastewater Treatment Plant on Burnham School Road. NZDF will<br />

pass ownership of the pump and pipeline, once built, to the Council.<br />

Construction on the pump station and pipeline will commence in<br />

<strong>September</strong>, with commissioning expected in March next year.<br />

NZDF will also make an upfront development payment for the<br />

connection and will pay ongoing charges equivalent to the standard<br />

sewerage targeted rates.<br />

Until now, Burnham Military Camp has been treating and disposing<br />

of its own wastewater using an oxidation pond and border dyke<br />

irrigation system which had, in recent times, struggled to fully meet<br />

the requirements of its resource consent.<br />

Head of Defence Estate and Infrastructure Mark Brunton welcomed<br />

the agreement. “I am delighted we have been able to reach an<br />

agreement with <strong>Selwyn</strong> District Council that benefits Burnham<br />

Camp, the wider community and the environment. It will secure<br />

effective and reliable wastewater management for Burnham Military<br />

Camp into the future, and take advantage of economies of scale to<br />

achieve a higher level of treatment at Council’s state of the art Pines<br />

wastewater treatment plant.”<br />

Council Group Manager Infrastructure Murray Washington says<br />

the agreement strengthens the important relationship between the<br />

Council and New Zealand Defence Force.<br />

“We’re pleased to support the community at Burnham Military Camp<br />

through this agreement, which will help with the ongoing maintenance<br />

and growth of the district’s wastewater networks. It is a good<br />

example of the ongoing investment that NZDF makes into our district<br />

and the partnership approach we take to working with them.”<br />

SADD Students leading road safety in Darfield<br />

Darfield students are leading the way to help make <strong>Selwyn</strong> roads safer.<br />

SAFER <strong>September</strong> is a national SADD (Students against dangerous driving) initiative to provide an<br />

opportunity for students to actively engage with their community, by spreading positive messages and<br />

encourage road safety awareness.<br />

Darfield High Schools’ Issy Kennedy and Emily White are among a team of SADD students helping keep<br />

their school mates safe on the roads.<br />

The team has made it their job to raise awareness about SADD and road safety within their school with<br />

a variety of activities, Issy says.<br />

“We have made a change to the way students and staff enter and exit the school by<br />

encouraging them to take an alternative route. After school you’ll see us standing<br />

outside the main entrance encouraging everyone to follow the chalk arrows that mark<br />

the correct path to take when crossing the road. It has taken a while but everyone is<br />

now seeing the benefits rather than seeing the route as an inconvenience.”<br />

Over lockdown the team ran an online challenge testing students’ knowledge of road<br />

safety and are holding a ‘dress up your door’ competition between classes to raise<br />

awareness of SADD principles, Emily says.<br />

“We have also planned an expo as part of Safer <strong>September</strong> to encourage the<br />

students to interact and get to know the local emergency services and the Council,<br />

SADD and Proactive Drive representatives. We plan on holding this event once Level<br />

two restrictions are removed.”<br />

On the roads<br />

The New Zealand Transport Agency has advised that over the next four to six weeks,<br />

construction works will be taking place on the roads either side of the Christchurch<br />

Southern Motorway up to the Weedons Interchange with SH1.<br />

Detours will be in place, and advisory signs are located in the affected areas giving advanced notice.<br />

No graduation<br />

ceremony for<br />

Lincoln uni<br />

students<br />

LINCOLN University graduands<br />

who had their ceremony<br />

postponed earlier this year due<br />

to Covid-19 will now miss out<br />

altogether.<br />

The university has decided to<br />

cancel its graduation planned for<br />

October 8.<br />

Lincoln University acting<br />

vice-chancellor Professor Bruce<br />

McKenzie, said it was a decision<br />

reached with a heavy heart and<br />

after much deliberation.<br />

The graduation was initially<br />

postponed in April, with all students<br />

receiving their parchments<br />

through the mail.<br />

“Having already postponed the<br />

April ceremony we very much<br />

wanted to provide our graduates<br />

with an event recognising, and<br />

celebrating their achievements.”<br />

“However, there was just too<br />

much uncertainty around what<br />

Covid-19 alert level we would<br />

be on at the time. There are also<br />

currently risks associated with<br />

holding such a sizeable event.<br />

At this stage, the Lincoln<br />

University Students’ Association<br />

graduation ball is still going<br />

ahead.<br />

•For information on the<br />

graduation ball, go to the<br />

Reinsman had a heart<br />

attack – now it’s the horse<br />

YOUR STABLE star returning<br />

from a big race with a heart<br />

complaint, even a minor one, is<br />

rarely a laughing matter.<br />

But once trainer Greg Hope<br />

established A G’s White Socks<br />

had taken no harm from an<br />

atrial fibrillation in his comeback<br />

race at<br />

Addington,<br />

he admits to<br />

seeing the<br />

funny side.<br />

In a racing<br />

story too<br />

odd to make<br />

up, A G’s<br />

Ricky May<br />

White Socks<br />

suffered the<br />

relatively<br />

common atrial fibrillation in the<br />

feature race at Addington and<br />

had to be pulled up by driver<br />

Ricky May.<br />

The reason that was so<br />

remarkable is because the last<br />

time May had driven A G’s<br />

White Socks in a race, May<br />

all but died from a far more<br />

serious and sudden heart issue<br />

which left him needing an<br />

emergency helicopter ride and<br />

an operation.<br />

That was at Omakau on January<br />

2 so the last two times the<br />

Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz<br />

southern pair have joined<br />

forces for a race it has been a<br />

disaster.<br />

Now May and A G’s White<br />

Socks are both fine, trainer<br />

Hope admits everybody has seen<br />

the funny side.<br />

“You wouldn’t believe it could<br />

happen first to Ricky and then to<br />

the horse, even though they are<br />

different things,” said Hope.<br />

“Once we all got over the shock<br />

of it all we have given Ricky a bit<br />

of a hard time about it all in good<br />

fun. I have been telling him I<br />

hope the trainer isn’t next.”<br />

Hope said the vets who<br />

examined A G’s White Socks<br />

HEARTFELT:<br />

Ricky May and<br />

A G’s White<br />

Socks who<br />

both have<br />

had heart<br />

scares.<br />

after the Addington incident<br />

said they are seeing more atrial<br />

fibrillations in horses, with<br />

plenty of theories as to why,<br />

including the new spring<br />

grass.<br />

A lot of horses have suffered<br />

a fibrillation in races and never<br />

been affected by it again.<br />

Rolleston Drive/Dryden Avenue intersection works<br />

Works beginning on new intersection<br />

and Markham Way extension<br />

Work to create a new intersection at Rolleston Drive<br />

and Dryden Avenue and to extend Markham Way will<br />

begin on Monday 21 <strong>September</strong>.<br />

This work is expected to be completed by<br />

February 2021, depending on the weather, or<br />

other work restrictions.<br />

The new intersection and extension will help with<br />

traffic flow and congestion on Rolleston Drive, help<br />

with access to the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Health Hub and new town<br />

centre and improve pedestrian safety.<br />

Rolleston Drive and Norman Kirk Drive will remain<br />

open throughout the upgrade, although there will<br />

be short periods where each street needs to be<br />

reduced to one lane with a stop/go system in place.<br />

This will be done outside of peak hours and we will<br />

keep users updated when these are due to occur.<br />

Thank you for your patience while we carry out<br />

this upgrade.<br />

THE SAYING may well<br />

have been the catchcry in<br />

Southbridge’s 40-32 win over<br />

Waihora in the Coleman Shield<br />

final at Southbridge on Saturday.<br />

All Blacks legend Dan Carter<br />

was always going to be potentially<br />

an ace card in his third match<br />

this season for Southbridge, and<br />

in many ways it proved to be.<br />

Waihora led 24-22 at half-time<br />

in what was always going to be a<br />

tough contest.<br />

But early in the second<br />

half Carter scored a try and<br />

landed the conversion to<br />

give Southbridge the buffer it<br />

needed to ease away from<br />

Waihora.<br />

Carter said he was elated to<br />

win the shield, adding to what<br />

has been a stellar career.<br />

Ingredients<br />

Neutral-tasting oil for frying<br />

4 pieces of pork schnitzel<br />

Salt and freshly ground black<br />

pepper<br />

½ cup all-purpose flour<br />

combined with 1 tsp salt<br />

2 large eggs, lightly beaten<br />

¾ cup plain breadcrumbs<br />

Chopped fresh parsley, garnish<br />

Directions<br />

Lightly sprinkle both sides of<br />

the pork with salt and freshly<br />

ground black pepper.<br />

Place the flour mixture, egg,<br />

and breadcrumbs in three<br />

separate shallow bowls.<br />

Dredge the pork in the flour,<br />

24 <strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong> Wednesday <strong>September</strong> <strong>16</strong> <strong>2020</strong><br />

To the people of Hororata<br />

This open letter is to present some important facts about the Hororata Hall and why its sale<br />

should not be included to finance a community centre in the reserve.<br />

The Hororata Hall was built in the 1890’s by local people on land donated by local<br />

farmers and was managed by a trust. Other land adjacent to the Hall was also donated in<br />

endowment to provide an income towards maintenance of the Hall. So, the Hall was, for<br />

about 60 years, owned and maintained by the Hororata community and like the Church was<br />

one of the cultural centres of Hororata.<br />

In 1952 the community wanted to establish it as a war memorial with Honours Boards in<br />

the Hall listing the names of the young Hororata men who had died in the First and Second<br />

World Wars. This was common throughout New Zealand at that time. Central government<br />

encouraged it by offering a subsidy of £5000 toward improvements of the hall. The Hororata<br />

community raised a similar amount. They added a library and Plunket rooms.<br />

However, to receive this subsidy they had to pass ownership of the Hall and land to the local<br />

authority. That was the <strong>Selwyn</strong> County with Council yards, chambers and staff houses in<br />

Hororata, so they were still ‘keeping it in the family’; the council were part of the community.<br />

But when the <strong>Selwyn</strong> County merged with the Malvern County in 1963 the ownership went<br />

with it. And, of course, now it is owned by the <strong>Selwyn</strong> District whose management are<br />

often strangers, people who have come to <strong>Selwyn</strong> from other places and for whom this is just<br />

another hall.<br />

Previous councils have invested a little in the Hall over the years. In 1962 the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Council<br />

paid £<strong>16</strong>00 to improve it and add a stage and supper room. In 1975 further improvements,<br />

including a playcentre were completed, costing $27,000. The Malvern Council contributed<br />

$14,403 and the community raised the rest. So, in brief, £<strong>16</strong>00 from <strong>Selwyn</strong> County in 11<br />

years and $14,403 from Malvern in 26 years. Unfortunately, I do not have figures for the<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> District’s contributions during its first 30 years.<br />

But now, the Council’s value on the Hall and land (not including the endowment land) is<br />

$400,000. The sale of the Hall will contribute to its intended replacement’s cost of (and the<br />

figures are a little fluid) $4,500,000.<br />

I admire what Go Hororata has achieved. They have accomplished an enormous amount<br />

with hard work and some good fortune. Their event will always be weather vulnerable and<br />

sometimes there will be cancellations, but no doubt they have built that into their planning.<br />

What I fear is their aim is too ambitious, and if it can only be achieved by the loss of a<br />

building that many other communities would envy, then I cannot support that aim. The<br />

Hororata Hall is one of those rare survivors that represent the revivalist art movements at the<br />

end of the Victorian Era. Like Mountfort’s Neo-Gothic was inspired by medieval buildings,<br />

the Hall was designed by Seagar, an architect and builder, to echo the Pre-Renaissance<br />

wooden buildings of England. With the wooden church, it is an important link to the<br />

settlers of the 19th century.<br />

SELWYN RURAL LIFE<br />

Rural women want<br />

commitment to rural<br />

communities<br />

Rural Women New Zealand<br />

(RWNZ) has published<br />

their manifesto calling for a<br />

commitment to improving the<br />

health and wellbeing of rural<br />

families and enhancing the<br />

resilience of rural communities.<br />

“The general election season<br />

is a perfect time for us to share<br />

the challenges we see and<br />

what actions we recommend<br />

any government should take<br />

in order to empower rural<br />

communities,” says RWNZ<br />

president Fiona Gower.<br />

“RWNZ believes that the<br />

social, cultural, environmental<br />

and economic success of New<br />

Zealand should be reflected in<br />

rural communities and we have<br />

been voicing this to decisionmakers<br />

since 1925.<br />

“All candidates need to show<br />

a commitment to ensuring that<br />

rural communities have equal<br />

access to technology, education<br />

and health services.<br />

“It is vital that all rural<br />

communities feel safe and<br />

secure on the roads, in their<br />

homes and around their<br />

properties and RWNZ would<br />

like to see clear action on this.<br />

“Global influence and the<br />

environment are also included<br />

in the manifesto alongside<br />

the call to ensure that rural<br />

communities come first in<br />

policy development.<br />

“RWNZ has always actively<br />

worked with decisionmakers<br />

and ask that this<br />

year’s candidates consider<br />

our strategy for building<br />

resilient rural communities<br />

and assessing policy impacts,<br />

as part of their work in<br />

Parliament, should they be<br />

elected,” says Ms Gower.<br />

Boost to vegetable growers<br />

A project to boost vegetable growers’ efforts to care<br />

for the health of the environment while supplying fresh,<br />

healthy food, has received $4.7 million in government<br />

backing from the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI).<br />

The funding adds to the $2.8 million already invested<br />

by industry into Sustainable Vegetable Systems, a<br />

four-year project, focused on improving crop nutrient<br />

management for the growing of potatoes, onions,<br />

brassicas, butternut squash, carrots, and leafy greens.<br />

MPI is investing in the project from the Productive and<br />

Sustainable Land Use package, which promotes farming<br />

and growing practices that deliver more value and<br />

improved environmental outcomes.<br />

The project was established by Potatoes NZ, partnering<br />

with Horticulture New Zealand and vegetable groups<br />

Onions New Zealand, Vegetables New Zealand,<br />

Processed Vegetables New Zealand, and NZ Buttercup<br />

Squash, under their umbrella of the Vegetable Research<br />

and Innovation Board.<br />

“This project will give growers the ability to accurately<br />

manage nutrient flows, while meeting demand for quality<br />

produce, meaning better environmental outcomes,” said<br />

Potatoes NZ CEO, Chris Claridge.<br />

MPI’s Director for Land, Water and Climate Policy,<br />

Charlotte Denny, said having robust tools to measure<br />

their environmental impact will help growers operate<br />

more efficiently, and reduce nitrate leaching.<br />

“This is an important industry-led programme, and<br />

the scientific data gathered will inform and help develop<br />

decision tools for growers to support more sustainable<br />

growing practices,” Charlotte Denny said.<br />

Plant & Food Research is undertaking the work to<br />

quantify and model nitrate leaching. The project will<br />

engage with vegetable growers around New Zealand,<br />

providing tools to help them apply effective nitrate<br />

management techniques suited to<br />

their land and operations.<br />

The Sustainable Vegetable<br />

Systems project will have nine<br />

commercial field sites across<br />

the country in Canterbury,<br />

Hawke’s Bay, Horowhenua,<br />

Waikato and Pukekohe as well<br />

as trials at Plant & Food Research<br />

facilities in Lincoln and Hawke’s<br />

Bay.<br />

Chris Claridge said this project will give<br />

the vegetable growing sector improved tools<br />

to estimate nitrate leaching, an area where<br />

the sector is currently underserved.<br />

“This project will enable growers to<br />

assess which management techniques<br />

will best reduce their risk of nitrate<br />

leaching, so they can confidently make<br />

changes in practice,” Chris Claridge said.<br />

David Hadfield, Chair of the VR&I Board<br />

says that the Board, and the vegetable product<br />

groups it represents, strongly advocate for<br />

science that supports vegetable growers<br />

to build on their current knowledge, and<br />

improve their monitoring and management<br />

of nitrate leaching.<br />

“This work will underpin the ability of<br />

vegetable growers to keep producing fresh<br />

healthy vegetables using the most sustainable<br />

approaches,” David Hadfield said.<br />

“Ultimately, this will ensure a more prosperous,<br />

vibrant and sustainable New Zealand for many<br />

generations to come.”<br />

What do you have to tell potential<br />

buyers when selling your house?<br />

When you’ve lived in a property for a<br />

while it’s easy to forget some of its quirks.<br />

You might be used to the fact that the<br />

front gate doesn’t shut properly, or that<br />

the bathroom windows need fixing. Any<br />

potential buyers will be able to spot issues<br />

like this when they inspect the property –<br />

and can choose to fix them if they purchase<br />

it. But it’s a lot harder for them to identify<br />

other things you might have forgotten<br />

about, like the fact that you didn’t bother<br />

getting the appropriate consents from the<br />

council when you built the deck 25 years<br />

ago.<br />

You might think the deck is fine, but you<br />

need to front up about the consent issue,<br />

not least because it’s the decent thing to do.<br />

“When you’re selling a property you are<br />

legally obliged to share all the relevant<br />

information about it,” says the Real Estate<br />

Agents Authority (REAA).<br />

“If work has been done on the property<br />

during your ownership, either by you or<br />

someone else, the standard terms of the<br />

sale and purchase agreement require the<br />

seller to warrant that any legally required<br />

permits or consents were obtained. If you<br />

knowingly fail to disclose unconsented<br />

works, you are in breach of contract. This<br />

means there is a risk that the sale could fall<br />

over or that you could run into problems<br />

prior to settlement. Even worse, the buyer<br />

could take you to court for breach of<br />

warranty.”<br />

Your first step should be to discuss the<br />

issue with your licensed real estate agent<br />

and your lawyer, Lampen-Smith says. They<br />

are likely to advise that you are better off to<br />

disclose anything unconsented, or to strike<br />

out the applicable vendor warranties clause<br />

in the sale and purchase agreement.<br />

“Once the real estate agent is aware of the<br />

situation, they are bound by their Code of<br />

Conduct to disclose it to any prospective<br />

buyers. If you tell them about the deck or<br />

any other issues to do with the property,<br />

but ask them not to tell anyone, they are<br />

required to stop working for you.”<br />

Similar disclosure issues can arise over<br />

more sensitive matters. Some sellers worry<br />

about whether or not to tell an agent or<br />

prospective buyers about an issue that<br />

doesn’t relate to the physical state of the<br />

property – such as it being the scene of a<br />

murder, suicide or violent crime.<br />

Here, deciding what to disclose is less<br />

straightforward, Lampen-Smith says.<br />

“The REAA advises agents to take a<br />

cautious approach and to consider each<br />

situation on its facts, while recognising the<br />

individual circumstances.”<br />

The High Court has said that a more<br />

recent event, especially one that might<br />

have gained some notoriety in the local<br />

neighbourhood, may have more bearing on<br />

a prospective buyer’s view of the property<br />

than a historic one. The location of the<br />

event (whether it took place in the grounds<br />

of the property or inside the house) and<br />

whether the property has been lived in since<br />

it happened, as well as the likely reaction<br />

of potential buyers, should also be taken<br />

into account. The death of someone from<br />

natural causes at the property does not<br />

need to be disclosed, as this is considered<br />

an everyday occurrence.<br />

“If you are in this situation as a seller, it’s<br />

best to discuss what to do with your real<br />

estate agent.”<br />

“They cannot tell prospective buyers<br />

without your consent – and if they decide<br />

that a sensitive issue should be disclosed<br />

but you don’t agree, then they must cease<br />

to act for you.”<br />

Whatever the situation, whether it’s<br />

unconsented work or a tragic event, honesty<br />

is the best policy. Talk to your agent about<br />

how the disclosure will be handled. There<br />

is no need to advertise the information<br />

or tell everyone who wanders along to an<br />

open home, but potential buyers who have<br />

indicated an interest in making an offer<br />

must be told.<br />

and wall heater in the hallway. However, when building<br />

with Whitestone Builders, clients are able to choose the<br />

type of heating they want as well as where this is to be<br />

located within their home.<br />

Clad in brick veneer with double glazed aluminium<br />

joinery, a Colorsteel corrugated roof and exposed<br />

aggregate concrete driveway, this home sits well on its<br />

718sqm section.<br />

The price to build this showhome is $382,000 with<br />

Whitehouse Builders Ltd offering house and land<br />

packages (based on this house design), starting at<br />

$585,000. This figure includes a section priced at<br />

$190,000. With a finished independent valuation at<br />

around $645,000, this represents good value for the buyer.<br />

Whitehouse Builders’ showhome at Faringdon’s The<br />

Borough is located at 52 Lanner Drive in Rolleston. It is<br />

open for viewing Wednesdays to Sundays, 12noon until<br />

4pm, or for viewing by appointment.<br />

Show homes<br />

the ultimate way to shop around<br />

Across the selwyn district, we are blessed with an<br />

extensive array of very good quality show homes.<br />

Building companies build show homes<br />

to demonstrate their workmanship,<br />

display innovative design ideas and<br />

present a snapshot into a new and<br />

luxurious lifestyle, featuring all the<br />

latest in materials, fittings and fixtures.<br />

A show home can inspire you in a way<br />

nothing else can. You can absorb the<br />

ambiance they present and admire the<br />

innovative techniques, new materials<br />

and technology.<br />

You can ask questions, take notes<br />

and compare. You can see at a glance<br />

features you would love to emulate or<br />

would avoid when building your home.<br />

Best of all, you ;will see the building<br />

companies’ attention to detail.<br />

Show homes are the perfect way to get<br />

a good idea of pricing, discover good<br />

quality and value, learn about superior<br />

use of space, future-proofing, ongoing<br />

maintenance and long-term returns.<br />

So what are you waiting for? Check<br />

out our maps, grab a notepad and<br />

pencil and begin the exciting project of<br />

building your own home.
