New motorway on-ramp 

an ‘issue’ concedes NZTA 

• By Devon Bolger 

THE NEW northbound on-ramp 

from Halswell Junction Rd is part of 

$195 million major roading hub on the 

Southern Motorway. 

But it is not working for some. 

Nine emails from motorists have 

been sent to the New Zealand Transport 

Agency in the 

past four months 

over the on-ramp. 

The problem 

stems from motorists 

coming from 

the direction of 

Prebbleton turning 

right at the Springs 

Geoff Griffiths 

Rd roundabout in 

the right-hand lane. 

As they approach 

the on-ramp they have to cross into a 

left lane in order to get onto the motorway 

to the city. 

Those motorists needing to do so 

only have 200m to cross into the left 

lane which carries traffic from Halswell 

Junction Rd and left-turning vehicles 

from the Sockburn side of Springs Rd. 

If the left lane is busy, traffic in 

the right lane can’t get across to the 

on-ramp and are either forced to take 

the stretch of road to Halswell, or cut 

across other vehicles. 

NZTA principal project manager 

Geoff Griffiths conceded there was an 

issue. •Turn to page 6 

• Editorial, page 2 

DANGER: Getting on to the motorway from Springs Rd means a quick jump to the left lane, potentially cutting off 

other drivers.

I’VE PUT the on-ramp (see 

page 1) to the test over the 

past several days. 

My conclusion – it’s a 

problem. 

About 11.20am on Sunday, 

I came off the Halswell 

Junction Rd bridge from 

Prebbleton, turned right and 

then had to get across into 

the left lane to get onto the 

motorway. 

The driver of a van in front 

realised almost too late she 

needed to get into the left 

lane also to access the onramp. 

She pulled hard to the 

left, causing me to put on 

the anchors, which in turn 

impacted the vehicle behind 

me. 

We got through unscathed 

– just. 

A similar thing happened 

last week when I put the onramp 

to the test in weekday 

7.30am traffic. 

The design is a lemon.

A DRIVER lost control of 

a vehicle colliding with two 

parked cars and the side of a 

house in Rolleston on Sunday 

morning. 

Senior Sergeant Dean Harker 

said they were alerted to the 

incident on Feather Pl in the 

Falcons Landing subdivision at 

about 2am. 

“The vehicle has failed to take 

a corner. It has crashed into two 

vehicles that were parked in the 

driveway of a property and has 

pushed one of those vehicles in 

through the garage.” 

People were inside the house 

at the time of the crash. They declined 

to speak with the Selwyn 

Times when asked. 

Harker said the three occupants 

of the vehicle fled after 

the crash and the two passengers 

were tracked and located by 

police dogs. 

The 23-year-old male driver is 

helping police with their inquiries, 

Harker said. 

“The partner of the driver 

contacted police in Christchurch 

who went around to their address 

a couple of hours after the 

accident.” 

Harker said the occupants 

of the vehicle are not from the 

district.

Big ticket projects in district 

A number of major projects in the district are 

set to open next year. Devon Bolger explains 

what you can expect and what each facility 

will provide for the district 

Foster Park indoor 

courts complex 

Netball games, gymnastics 

competitions and floorball are 

just some of the activities that 

could be held at the new indoor 

courts complex. 

It is expected to be open to 

the public in late April and will 

add eight to 10 new jobs to the 

district. 

The budget for the project is 

$22.2 million. Apollo Projects is 

the contractor. 

Facility manager Dave Tippett 

said expressions of interest are 

being sought from sports and 

other groups wanting to use the 

space. 

“Netball is one of the first 

sports that we did speak to and I 

think they’re keen to keep their 

Saturday netball at Lincoln but 

they are potentially going to be 

moving some masters and social 

netball to Rolleston. 

“I’ve also been speaking with 

gymnastics groups but from a 

competition perspective, and 

basketball as well.” 

The line-markings at the facility 

are for netball, basketball, 

volleyball, badminton, indoor 

tennis, floorball, korfball and 

futsal. 

“We’ve got some really good 

amounts of flexibility. All year 

round we can host competitive 

and social sport and recreation,” 

said Tippett. 

“It will open up a whole new 

world of sport and physical 

activity and recreation.” 

The indoor court facility 

includes eight courts, along with 

a 240m indoor walking track 

on the mezzanine level and will 

serve sports teams from across 

the district. 

This includes four competition 

standard courts capable of 

hosting local and regional 

competitions and four covered 

courts for sports such as netball, 

tennis, basketball and futsal. 

It will also function as a flexible 

space for community events, 

markets and exhibitions.

The extended Selwyn Aquatic

add dry recreation and community 

spaces for hire and increased 

spectator capacity for school 

events. 

Richmond said the reason for 

the expansion is the popularity of 

the facility. 

“In the seven years we have 

been open the number of people 

using the centre has grown 

steadily and today we have over 

400,000 visits a year,” he said. 

“The numbers in our swim 

school classes have doubled, with 

around 2200 children enrolled 

each term, and almost 6000 people 

a year attend our aqua fitness 

classes.” 

The project will also add 

changing rooms along with extra 

foyer and administration space 

and the option for a possible café 

in the future.

building on Tennyson St which 

will include a modern library, 

meeting rooms, performance 

spaces, workshops and digital 

resources. 

It will also have social 

spaces, a community lounge 

area, as well as arts, culture and 

heritage displays and research 

facilities. 

One of the key features in the 

facility will be the museum-like 

experience which will be used 

throughout the facility to share 

the story of the district and its 

people, place and culture. 

This will be done through engaging 

objects and multi-media 

interpretive displays. 

The facility will open onto 

a spacious town square which 

will provide areas for civic and

Wastewater 

project 

under way 


CONSTRUCTION on a 

$6.9 million expansion to the 

Pines Wastewater Treatment 

Plant is under way. 

The project will double the 

capacity of the existing solar 

drying hall which dries sludge 

in a way that is better for the 

environment. 

Physical works on the foundations 

of the expansion started 

on Monday and the project is 

expected to be completed by 

May next year. 

The extension is needed 

to meet existing and future 

demand for the Eastern Selwyn 

Sewerage Scheme, which serves 

Prebbleton, Lincoln, Springston, 

Rolleston and West Melton. 

Half of the work has been 

brought forward five years ahead 

of schedule. 

The project was scheduled in 

the Long-Term Plan to be built 

in two phases with the first solar 

drying hall expansion scheduled 

for 2018/19 and the second hall 

in 2026/27. 

When the solar drying hall 

was originally built in 2013 it 

was the first hall of its kind in 

New Zealand.

• From page 1 

“With this roundabout, 

there is a relatively short 

distance for drivers to 

move across lanes to get to 

the on-ramp,” he said. 

“Once the southbound 

motorway lanes are open, 

and when traffic gets used 

to the layout, the situation 

should ease to some 

extent.” 

One of the frequently 

asked questions on the 

NZTA website is: “Why is 

there a wait at the Springs 

Rd roundabout and to access 

the motorway on-ramp?” 

Following final utility 

works in the area, permanent 

signage will be 

installed which will further 

help drivers with the correct 

lane, Griffths said. 

He also said an alternative 

route from Prebbleton 

to get on to the motorway 

is available, but it is 2km 

further than using the onramp. 

He suggests turning 

left from Springs Rd onto 

Marshs Rd and accessing 

the motorway on-ramp at 

Shands Rd. The Shands Rd 

on-ramp has traffic lights, 

making it easier to access 

the motorway, he said. 

Construction of stage 

two of the Southern Motorway 

is still in progress 

and is expected to finish 

next year. 

“Once all four lanes of 

the new motorway are 

open and fully operational, 

traffic volumes will adjust 

and settle.” 

Stage two of the Southern 

Motorway project began in 

2016 and is expected to cost 

$195 million. 

The first stage of the 

motorway, between 

Brougham St and Halswell 

Junction Rd, opened in 

2012 at a cost of $140 

million.

Inner Lands 

Standing at the edge of the Inner land 

Looking within and out again. 

All is clouded and clear with 

Insight, foresight, hindsight, 

and still much unknown. 

There was a time when, 

the land was stilled and hushed. 

As if resting, from the itchy human 

activity, the earth sighed with relief. 

The wind played its song 

over the ridge lines and 

the voices of birds rang out clear 

into a cleaner, quieter air. 

The streams chattered down into 

gullies of bush and ferns, and the 

passing of days were, at last, 

observed by many, from inside 

their bubbles. 

A time of meditative connection 

to leave distractions of everyday life 

and find the meaning in being. 

Now take me to those Inner Lands, 

on the journeys of the mind, 

where coastal forests give way 

to the place of dreams, and 

the mind can settle and rest, 

and sustain the momentary 

beauty of existence.

Drink driving: By the numbers 


NEARLY TWICE as many 

drink drivers have been caught 

in Rolleston than any other 

township in the district. 

A total of 137 people recorded 

excess breath or blood alcohol 

levels in Rolleston, data released 

to the Selwyn Times shows. 

Lincoln had the second-highest 

number with 77 motorists 

caught. 

There were 67 people in 

Rolleston who recorded a breath 

alcohol level over 400mcg/L. 

That compares to 53 in 

Lincoln, 33 in Leeston, 19 in 

Darfield and two in Arthur’s 

Pass. 

The legal limit is 250mcg/L, 

if you record between that and 

400mcg you will receive a $200 

fine. 

If you record more than 

400mcg/L you could be jailed for 

up to three months, fined up to 

$4500 and will automatically be 

disqualified from driving for at 

least six months. 

The legal blood alcohol limit is 

50mg. 

Senior Sergeant Dean Harker 

said he thinks the higher 

numbers in Rolleston are due 

to a larger population and 

could possibly be due to people 

commuting from the city. 

CHECKPOINT: Statistics have revealed how many people 

were charged with drink driving across the district between 

2017 and 2019. 

“It is a real 

concern for 

us. We have 

been pushing 

for a long, long 

time to try 

and spread the 

message about 

drink driving.” 

Dean Harker 

Harker said 

memorable call-outs for police in 

the district include apprehending 

drunk drivers that were stopped 

in the middle of the road, 

slumped over the steering wheel 

and covered in vomit. 

“Another time, a driver was 

weaving all over the road and 

followed home by a member of 

the public, when spoken to by 

police they didn’t know where 

they were.” 

Last week Selwyn Times 

reported police have seen an 

increase in drink driving in the 

district over the last month. 

People caught with 

excess alcohol levels 

over the last three 

years: 

Rolleston: 137 

Lincoln: 77 

Leeston: 59 

Darfield: 34 

Arthur’s Pass: 5 

Selwyn total: 312 

It follows a motorist in their 

early 30s being caught three 

times the legal alcohol limit a 

fortnight ago. 

The man was found slumped 

over his steering wheel on 

Springston-Rolleston Rd. 

Harker said the driver, who 

lives in the district, refused to 

get out of the vehicle when police 

arrived. 

He was taken to the Rolleston 

Police Station where he recorded 

a reading of 1050mcg/L. 

The motorist was one of six 

people caught drink driving in 

the district over one weekend. 

About 80 per cent of the offenders 

recorded readings over 

1000mcg/L, Harker said. 

Harker said the man would 

not tell police if he had been 

drinking at an establishment 

before driving but he had been 

drinking in his car.

THE FIGHT to improve road 

safety in West Melton has taken 

another step forward with a 

speed limit reduction from next 

month. 

The speed limit on State 

Highway 73 through the 

township will be reduced from 

70km/h to 60km/h on Monday, 

October 12. 

It follows a speed review that 

drew in 101 submissions, most 

of which supported the change. 

The West Melton Residents 

Association has been fighting to 

improve safety on the road, as 

well as at the SH73 and Weedons 

Ross Rd intersection, for 10 

years. 

Chairman Tim Schurr 

said the speed change will 

make it safer for pedestrians 

and cyclists crossing between 

the north and south sides of the 

township. 

“We fully support this change, 

allowing for more calm transit 

of vehicles through this busy 

corridor and particularly the 

intersection with Weedons Ross 

Rd,” he said. 

“The change will make for 

safer passage of vehicles turning 

into and crossing the highway as 

well as pedestrians and cyclists.” 

Said New Zealand Transport 

Agency director regional 

relationships Jim Harland: 

“Some of the community have 

been asking for speed reductions 

through West Melton for some 

time. 

“There has been significant 

development in the area, both 

residential subdivisions and

commercial sites, which has 

resulted in more pedestrian and 

cycling activity as well as an 

increase in traffic numbers.” 

Hartland said there was a clear 

theme throughout submissions 

highlighting the importance the 

community places on pedestrian 

and cyclist safety. 

“Community members also 

felt strongly that the layout of 

the SH73/Weedons Ross Rd 

intersection was an issue and 

many suggested installing a 

roundabout or traffic lights to 

help with traffic flow and the 

safety of all users.” 

As part of the upgrade 

programme, the installation of 

traffic signals at the intersection 

is expected to begin early next 

year.

Rotary project 

to support 

Pacific kids 

THE LINCOLN Rotary Club’s 

major international project for 

this year is to push for donations 

to help immunise 100,000 

children in the Pacific. 

The work is a part of a wider 

project run by rotary worldwide 

which will see children across 

nine pacific islands receive immunisations. 

Club member Farhad Dastgheib 

said: “Even though it’s a larger 

project, it won’t go ahead until 

some of the local clubs commit 

to it.” 

UNICEF and the Asian 

Development Bank have put their 

support behind the project. 

Rotary will help introduce three 

life-saving vaccines in the Cook 

Islands, Kiribati, Nauru, Niue, 

Samoa, Tokelau, Tonga, Tuvalu 

and Vanuatu. 

These vaccines will help 

prevent cervical cancer, deadly 

diarrhoea, pneumonia, blood 

infections (such as sepsis) and 

meningitis. 

More money is needed to be 

fundraised through the community. 

It costs $45 to immunise a child 

with the three above vaccines.

TERRACE Downs golf resort 

has sold under the hammer 

for $6.6 million following the 

death of its former owner from 

Covid-19. 

The sale covers the 250 hectare 

golf course and clubhouse. The 

villas are privately owned. 

Competition at the CBRE 

auction for the course was high, 

with the property attracting 

strong interest from buyers. 

The course was put on the 

market after the death of multimillionaire 

Japanese investor 

Hiroshi Hasegawa, who purchased 

it in 2012 after approval 

from the Overseas Investment 

Office. 

Hasegawa was 59 when he 

died in April. He had turned the 

resort into a globally recognised 

luxury golf and adventure 

destination. 

CBRE 

Auckland capital 

markets senior 

director, Warren 

Hutt (right), who 

marketed the 

property, said it 

was bought by a 

private investor from Auckland. 

“They do plan on keeping it 

as a golf course, I don’t know 

their exact plans yet. It is a good 

result for Terrace Downs going 

forward.” 

Hutt said they are very happy 

with how the auction went. 

“We had significant interest, 

over 200 inquiries on the property, 

which is a phenomenal result. 

“There were 13 registered bidders 

and that was from around 

the country, including local 

Christchurch investors.”

fundraiser for 

youth workers 

A COMMUNITY garden tour 

is being planned as a way to 

fundraise for youth workers at 

Lincoln High School. 

The Selwyn Waiwera Youth 

Trust has been supporting youth 

workers at the school since 2008 

through 24-7 YouthWork. 

Trust member Diane Williams 

said the event, planned for November, 

will help with any funding 

shortfall over the coming years. 

“We would like people to have a 

great day enjoying the local gardens 

while supporting a great scheme. 

We also would like to lift the profile 

of SWYT. As well as supporting 

24-7 YouthWork,” she said. 

“Not everyone has someone 

they can talk to, someone who gets 

them where they are at, that won’t 

judge them but listen and be good 

role models. There are so many 

issues facing our youth today.” 

The event is a self-guided tour 

of local gardens, All of which are 

within Lincoln, Broadfields and 

Greenpark. 

• The garden tour will 

be held on November 7. 

Tickets are $20 and can be 

purchased at the Lincoln

Adventure-bound for charity 

MARIJKE ETWELL is on 

a mission to raise $4000 for 

Bowel Cancer New Zealand. 

The Rolleston resident is getting 

creative with the way she 

plans on fundraising. 

She secured herself a spot 

with Inspired Adventures, an 

adventure-based fundraising 

agency that partners with 

non-profit companies to create 

charitable challenges around 

the world. 

Etwell’s first adventure will be 

a 100km hike through the hills 

of Tuscany, Italy, in April next 

year. 

“I am feeling very excited 

about the trip but at the same 

time, I will understand if it 

doesn’t go ahead because of 

Covid-19. The main thing is 

to raise the money for Bowel 

Cancer NZ,” she said. 

Due to the global impact of 

Covid-19, many of the organisations 

fundraising events have 

been postponed or cancelled, 

Etwell said. 

“The impact of this will be felt 

for a long time yet and will push 

Bowel Cancer NZ to their absolute 

limit in regards to helping 

families in need. 

“Currently, they are 

projecting more than a 30 per 

cent downturn in their revenue 

so far, which equates to about

$140,000 of lost income.” 

On top of the 100km hike, 

Etwell is also collaborating with 

artist Joanna de Vegt who has 

donated two paintings to be 

auctioned. 

The paintings measure 

30cm x 91cm and can be

The minimum bid is starting 

at $300 for each painting. To

production 

taking shape 

WAITAHA SCHOOL pupils are 

gearing up for their production 

which is planned to hit the stage 

next month. 

Giraffes Can’t Dance involves 

just over 100 pupils. 

Teacher Kendra Horne said 

the production is an amazing 

experience which gives pupils an 

opportunity to thrive. 

“We are a specialist school in 

Rolleston and we often refer to 

our students as superheroes. Opportunities 

like this are a great 

way to show all their different 

superpowers and express themselves,” 

she said. 

“The students are very excited 

and feeling positive. Performing 

proudly comes naturally for many 

of our students, they will definitely 

thrive on stage. 

“For those who are feeling a 

little bit nervous, we have fabulous 

staff supporting them and 

encouraging them to do as much 

as they are comfortable doing.” 

If level 2 restrictions are still 

in place by the performance 

date, October 28, it will be livestreamed 

on the school Facebook 

page. 

Otherwise, it will take place at

NEWS 15 

A CUSTOM-MADE buoy is 

being used to monitor the health 

of one of the district’s highcountry 

lakes. 

The complex device floating in 

Lake Pearson contains a range 

of sensors that are constantly 

transmitting different types of 

data about the water. 

The final recorders were 

installed earlier this month 

meaning the monitoring station 

became fully operational. 

A team of Environment 

Canterbury scientists and 

technicians, with help from the 

Harbourmaster’s Office and Fish 

and Game, anchored the device 

in the northern half of the lake. 

Powered by a solar panel, the 

buoy senses and records water 

quality and meteorological data, 

which it transmits by radio to a 

small tower installed at the lake 

edge. 

This tower, in turn, sends the 

data, together with lake level 

information, out to the experts 

using satellites. 

An ECan spokesman said 

Lake Pearson was chosen as it 

faces many of the same stresses 

as other lakes in Canterbury. 

A pilot study over the past two 

years discovered oxygen loss 

deep in the lake over summer, 

which may have been linked to 

fish deaths in the past. 

The water quality in Canterbury’s 

high-country lakes is 

tested seasonally with samples 

collected by helicopter and then 

analysed. 

But to get a fuller picture of 

what’s happening below the 

surface, continuous water quality 

recording at different depths 

is necessary. 

“The Lake Pearson monitoring 

station is now providing that 

picture. It measures dissolved 

oxygen, turbidity, algal biomass 

and conductivity at two metres 

depth,” said the spokesman. 

ECan plans to install a similar 

buoy in Lake Benmore next 

year. 

Device to monitor health of lake 

INNOVATIVE: The buoy in Lake Pearson will help scientists 

monitor the health of the lake. 

Reader Brian Hooper 

responds to last week’s 

article about rules around 

cats being kept out of a 

new animal control bylaw 

We would like there to be an 

animal control bylaw around the 

control of feral cats in built-up 

areas whereby homeowners have 

some way of ridding their housing 

area of feral cats rather than 

a local resident taken them in, 

feeding them and allowing them 

to procreate which results in feral 

cats entering homes, spraying 

doorways and furniture and 

defecating on carpets. 

We realise that microchipping 

and desexing feral cats is very 

expensive and feel that householders 

should have a resource 

other than the SPCA or the Cat 

Protection League to go to for 

assistance. 

We want to hear your views 

on the issues affecting life

It was another successful planting day for the Te Ara Kakariki Trust on Sunday. 

Volunteers, such as district councillor Sophie McIness with her children Jack and Chloe, 

were co-ordinated across three sites in Springfield, planting a total of 2800 native trees. 

One of the planting locations was the old pit at the corner of Tramway Rd and Tawera 

Lane which is being turned into a recreation reserve. Another site was a private property 

where the owners are building a new home and have a commitment to include 

extensive native plantings on their property.

An anchor place 

for everyone 

Anchoring the new Rolleston town centre, the Te Ara Ātea building is shaping to be a place for 

everyone in Selwyn to celebrate the district’s identity and people. 

The 2,200 square metre, two-storey building, which will be finished in late 2021 will house the 

new Rolleston library, along with the district’s “living room”, performances spaces, and even a 

treasure box. 

“Everyone will be able to find their cosy corner, or an experience they will enjoy,” District Arts 

Culture and Lifelong Learning Coordinator Mat Logan says. “It’s not just a library, it’s a museum 

and heritage experience and an arts space. You might be walking down the end of a set of 

shelves and there will be a display case or a story or an exhibition.” 

The name Te Ara Ātea, was gifted by Te Taumutu Rūnanga and means the unobstructed trail 

reflecting the trails tangata whenua made across the plains, the name also references the 

building metaphorically as a place for learning and growth for people Project Manager Joanne 

Nikolaou says. 

Through the project the Council has worked with the rūnanga to weave the cultural identity of the 

district through the building and reflect its role as a place for learning, connecting, exploring and 

celebrating the district’s identity and people. 

The downstairs is designed as a more active space with performance and exhibition areas, a 

workshop room and tamariki area with interactive resources and doors to the children’s area of 

the town square. But it also features a community space for people to meet and spend time. 

“It’s been designed like someone’s living room with sofas and a fireplace, we want people to feel 

like it’s their living room,” Joanne says. 

Upstairs will be the majority of the library space, with exhibitions and displays integrated 

throughout. It will also feature waka huia, literally meaning treasure box. A soundproofed room 

with desks and computers and a museum-quality display wall on the outside that will display 

taonga from Te Taumutu Rūnanga, allowing treasures of the district to come home. 

Youth Council helping take the bite out of hunger 

The Selwyn Youth Council has teamed up with the Malvern Hub (Two Rivers Community Trust) to help 

take the bite out of hunger in our community. 

The groups have organised a food drive to help replenish low stock at the Darfield Foodbank, and will 

be collecting donations on Friday 2 October, 11am–1pm, at Darfield Library. 

Darfield Foodbank spokesperson Rose Craven says there has 

been a large increase in demand at the foodbank this year as 

people have lost jobs or had their hours cut from the impacts of 

Covid-19. The foodbank is now running around $600 per week 

short of items, she says. 

“While we have a good stock of canned food, we are desperately 

short of things like school lunch food, dry baking goods, frozen 

meat and veges and toiletries. If you are wondering what to donate 

have a think about what you and your family would need in a week.” 

The Youth Council has been involved in a series of volunteering 

efforts in recent weeks and was looking for a way to support 

the foodbank during the school holidays, Youth Councillor Issy 

Kennedy says. 

"I believe as a youth councillor, helping in any way in our 

communities that we can is really important, especially when some 

of us are going through such a hard time because of Covid-19. It 

can make such a difference in someone's life even when it may 

seem very small to us." 

Scholarships offer a chance to 

do what you love 

Help to do what you love is being offered to Selwyn school leavers. 

Applications are open for the Council’s annual Tertiary Education 

scholarships, supporting Selwyn young people who are leaving 

school and heading into higher education or training. 

Scholarships of up to $3000 provide payment towards fees, and 

costs associated with buying books and equipment required for 

their study or training. 

Whetu Pikari says receiving the scholarship towards his study 

this year in Engineering at Canterbury University was a huge help, 

covering his costs for staying in the halls and freeing him up to 

focus on what he loves. 

A high achieving student with learning difficulties, he says the 

scholarship has helped reduced some of the pressure and given him 

more time to work towards his passions in clean energy solutions 

and nanotechnology. 

“It’s been pretty fantastic. I’m loving it. University is quite a change 

in lifestyle, but with the scholarship I was less worried about money. 

It’s one less stress and it allows you to be more focussed on what 

you want to do.” 

The scholarships are available for year 12 and 13 students who 

live and study in Selwyn and are planning to undertake full-time 

post-secondary school education or training at a recognised New 

Zealand university, polytechnic or training institution next year. 

Applications are open until the end of September for students who 

have achieved outstanding success in academic, sports, cultural, 

arts, social responsibility, or other areas, or have overcome barriers 

or hardships to achieve. 

To find out more about the scholarships, including application 

forms, students can visit selwyn.govt.nz/tertiaryscholarships. 

Community Directory launches 

A new directory aims to help build awareness and connections for 

the Selwyn community. 

The Council’s new community directory has launched—providing a 

searchable online directory of community groups in the district. 

Over 300 groups and organisations ranging from sports clubs 

and social services, to arts, crafts and music groups have already 

signed up to the directory, where people can find groups they are 

interested in, or what is available in their area. 

The directory also has an events page where groups that are 

registered with the directory can promote their own event. The 

page was a response to a request from community groups for more 

space to promote their individual event big or small and anywhere 

across Selwyn, Council Group Manager Community Services and 

Facilities Denise Kidd. 

The Council will continue to help profile some events in addition 

to their inclusion in the directory, but the directory provides a free 

space for groups to do their own promotion directly to the public. 

The aim of the directory is to support the groups and help build up 

and strengthen the Selwyn community, Denise says. 

“It’s important, especially for newcomers, as well as for any 

resident. This directory is intended to connect people with others 

with the same interests or let them see what’s in their area. It 

is intended to also let people know which non-governmental 

organisations’ (NGO’s) are delivering social, health or education 

services and where to go for support. It’s a good way to meet others 

and become part of the fabric of the community. Being connected 

in the community is something that boosts people’s wellbeing 

generally and also helps them to do well in times of adversity.” 

People can visit the community directory or register their group at 

selwyn.govt.nz/community-directory

WATER RACE AND RURAL SURVEYS OPEN 

The Council is asking rural water and water race users about their future use and water needs. 

All users should now have received a letter with information and survey links for both. 

As part of long-term planning we’re surveying residents on rural water schemes to get a better 

understanding of their future water needs. We’re also looking to find out from water race users their 

desire to keep using their water race and willingness to pay for this service. 

If you are on a rural water supply or a water race user and have not received a letter from the Council 

please contact us on 0800 SELWYN (735 996) or email water.services@selwyn.govt.nz. 

Both surveys are open now and close Monday 5 October.

Emergency Response Team offering opportunities 

A chance to make a difference to people’s lives in emergencies is being offered by the Selwyn 

Response Team. 

The team, which responds on the front-line to Civil Defence emergencies, is recruiting for new members and 

will be holding an information evening from 7pm on Wednesday 7 October at the Rolleston Council Offices. 

Team members will talk about how they respond to Civil Defence emergencies such as earthquakes, 

fires and floods and what’s involved in being a team member. 

Volunteer Jordan Milner says he enjoys the opportunity to make a difference in people’s lives. The team 

trains once a week, and offers further training courses, ready to respond where needed, he says, from 

search and rescue and first aid, to whatever is required. 

For Jordan that has meant manning cordons, helping people get to their houses during the 2019 Nelson 

fires and at Hagley Community College after the mosque shootings, helping the Muslim community 

have a safe space to grieve. He also helped during the Level 4 lockdown, taking supplies and helping 

out people in two Selwyn campgrounds, delivering food to foodbanks and distributing flyers of key 

support information. 

“I helped some people move to motels who didn’t have anywhere to stay. It was quite rewarding. I took 

an elderly man to a motel and then went out and did a big shop for him and dropped it off. He was so 

moved. It was quite satisfying seeing people in a really tough spot and helping them through it.”

Stay safe out riding this spring and summer 

Spring is here and it is great weather to be out riding horses – we’re reminding people to take care 

while riding. 

With more riders taking advantage of the great horse riding conditions here in Selwyn, the Council is 

reminding riders to please avoid riding on the cycle ways between townships. 

Not only can riding on the cycle ways be a danger to cyclists and pedestrians, but at times they can be 

narrow, which also creates a high risk of injury to pedestrians, horses and riders should anything go wrong. 

Keeping safe on our roads is all about recognising hazards and minimising risks. To manage risk, here is 

a reminder of some of the safety rules to help keep you safe when riding on the road: 

· Always wear a helmet while riding 

· Wear bright coloured safety gear to increase your visibility to drivers 

· Ride your horse on the left-hand side of the road, and as far left as possible 

· Don’t ride on footpaths, cycle ways, private lawns or gardens.

Chris Barclay finds out how Covid-19 has impacted on Canterbury sports codes 

Financial assistance available for rugby clubs 

RUGBY CLUBS in Canterbury 

battling due to Covid-19 

restrictions can apply for 

financial assistance as the global 

pandemic threatens the future of 

local sporting organisations. 

The Canterbury Rugby 

Football Union in conjunction 

with the Mainland Foundation, 

has created the 2020 Club 

Covid-19 relief fund, which has 

$150,000 to distribute among 

clubs in the Metro, Ellesmere 

and North Canterbury regions. 

Clubs will be 

eligible for a 

tiered grant to 

a maximum of 

$7500 depending 

on the size 

of the club and 

the impact 

Tony 

Smail 

SPORT 

Covid-19 has 

wrought. 

The grant 

amount can only be used 

for amateur aspects at a club 

and could include covering 

costs related to coaching and 

encouraging participation, 

training and team gear, ground 

maintenance, operational 

expenses including phone 

and electricity bills plus club 

building maintenance providing 

the funds are not used for 

commercial purposes. 

“We want to commend all 

the clubs and their volunteers, 

players, coaches and other 

members for their resilience 

WHILE THE Covid-19 

pandemic has added ‘Zoom 

meetings’ to the lexicon 

of business dealings, 

Mainland Football is 

no longer treating live 

streaming as a leisurely 

pursuit. 

The code’s governing 

body has ramped up its 

virtual coverage of matches 

as Covid-19 restrictions 

forced the organisation to bar 

spectators from its English Park 

through these difficult times,” 

said CRFU chief executive Tony 

Smail. 

Applications via the CRFU 

website close on October 9. 

Smail said he received an 

application hours after the 

assistance was advertised and 

headquarters. 

And while there has been some 

dissent from fans unable to 

enter the venue, they at least 

have the ability to log on 

and watch the premier English 

Cup and Reta Fitzpatrick 

knockout competitions 

plus high school first XI 

football as the season draws 

to a close. 

“The one thing that has 

happened is Covid has taught 

us all that there’s a whole lot of 

different ways to communicate,” 

said Mainland Football chief 

executive Julian Bowden. 

“The live streaming thing has 

created an opportunity we knew 

was there but I’d say (Covid) has 

forced our hand slightly. 

“It’s huge. We’re getting massive 

numbers of people watching 

the games in our stream.” 

Broadcasting matches on 

social media has also provided 

an outlet to promote sponsors 

who have stuck with the sport 

added to the CRFU’s previous 

decision to waive levies. 

He said the decision to combine 

with the foundation, which 

distributes grants funded by 

gaming machine revenue, was 

made after the second wave of 

Covid restrictions were introduced 

last month. 

Those measures impacted on 

semi-finals and finals, which 

were held last weekend.

just not available to them,” Smail 

said.

“That’ll be something we continue 

to do,” Bowden said. 

“As we move through to the 

national league season it’s got to 

the point where all of those will 

be live streamed as well. 

“It’s not a new thing but the 

technology has become a bit 

easier and we’re seeing the value 

in it now. It’s adding value to our 

“Some of the clubs 

indicated it hasn’t been a

Mike Bowie is an ecologist who specialises in entomology 

(insects and other invertebrates). Each week he introduces a 

new species found in his backyard at Lincoln. His column aims 

to raise public awareness of biodiversity, the variety of living 

things around us. Check out the full list of invertebrates found

Big head for tiny wasp 

BAEUS IS a full stop-sized 

genera of parasitic wasp. 

THese ‘micro-flea’ wasps are 

parasitoids of spider eggs. 

Although less than 

1mm long, Baeus have 

characteristically big heads, 

big eyes and wingless females. 

Females oviposit a single egg 

into the wall of the spider egg 

and the minute larva hatches, 

consumes the contents of the 

egg, and pupates within the 

egg case before emerging as an 

adult. 

Only 25 species known 

worldwide, of which five 

species are known in New 

Zealand, with two of these 

species being shared with 

Australia (Baeus leai and 

Baeus saliens). 

Baeus are most often found 

in leaf litter, soil or bark 

of trees or shrubs and in 

Australia more commonly 

associated with spider species 

that attach their egg sacs to 

vegetation. 

THese include orb-weaver, 

sheet-weaver and cob-web 

spider families in particular.

GARDENING 


Swan plants and monarch butterflies 

• By Henri Ham 

I REMEMBER as a child 

being fascinated with monarch 

butterflies. 

Spotting those brightly-striped 

caterpillars chomping through 

our swan plants, and then 

magically evolve into monarch 

butterflies, seemed to consume a 

lot of our time. 

While monarch butterflies are 

around all year long, January is 

peak monarch season. If you’re 

wanting to entice monarchs to 

your garden this summer, you 

need to be thinking about planting 

swan plants now. 

Once you’ve got your seedlings, 

plant them around 70cm 

apart, as swan plants can grow 

up to 2m high, and really bush 

out. Plant in well-drained soil, 

that gets lots of sun. They’ll also 

benefit from some shelter as they 

won’t cope well in strong winds. 

If they are in an exposed spot, I 

recommend staking your plants, 

or tying to a fence. 

Once established, swan plants 

produce impressive puffy seed 

pods, said to resemble – you 

guessed it – swans. These pods, 

around the size of a gold ball, are 

what you’d collect if you’re wanting 

to harvest the seeds and have 

go growing your own next year. 

Or letting the pods naturally 

burst will result in your own wild 

garden of swan seedlings. 

Once they are established, 

swan plants are very low maintenance. 

Avoid any sprays or 

fertilisers on the leaves, as these 

can harm to caterpillars. 

Similarly, if you are buying 

established plants, and you’ve got 

caterpillars ready to be transferred 

on, you’ll need to hold off 

for 10 days. 

This is because any residual 

spray needs to disappear before 

putting any caterpillars on a 

swan plant, as it can harm the 

caterpillars. Then to be sure, test 

the plant with one caterpillar 

first. 

Growing swan plants can be 

bitter-sweet. While it’s exciting 

when you find your plant 

covered with caterpillars, you’ve 

got to have enough leaves to feed 

them all. 

Caterpillars can literally eat 

themselves out of house and 

home. If you get to this stage, 

you can move caterpillars onto

plants until

other swan plants, for more food. 

But initially picking off excess 

eggs can help this from occurring. 

If you’re finding you’ve got the 

opposite problem of no caterpillars, 

wasps could be the problem. 

To keep the wasps away, cover 

your swan plant with a mesh net. 

The butterflies will still be able to 

lay their eggs on the leaves that 

are touching the mesh. 

If you’ve been left with a 

baron-leaved plant, simply 

leave it to regrow more leaves. 

Swan plans can also last up to 

two years, so come early winter, 

give your plant a good prune 

back in preparation for next 

summer. 

It’s also worth knowing that 

swan plants can be toxic if 

ingested. So (especially if you’re 

handling the caterpillars) think 

about wearing gloves or giving 

your hands an extra deep wash 

after your gardening session.

Woodcroft Estate’s new 

Pavilion is now open 

The Pavilion. 

Woodcroft Estate residents & staff. 

A new village facility was opened at 

Woodcroft Estate last Thursday, with 

residents, staff and invited guests from 

Generation Homes, gathering to celebrate 

the completion of The Pavilion. 

This large venue has dining, kitchen 

and bathroom facilities. A barbecue area, 

bowling green and landscaping are still 

to be completed outdoors. The Pavilion 

will provide a hub for Woodcroft Estate’s 

residents and the wider community, as a 

place where people can gather informally 

or for joint activities, meetings, meals, 

exercise classes and other events. The 

Pavilion will also be available for residents’ 

private gatherings. 

Generation Homes is the preferred 

builders for Karaka Pines Villages, 

with Generation Homes Christchurch 

contracted to build The Pavilion. 

Generation Homes Christchurch has 

already completed 28, of the 78 planned, 

two and three bedroom villas and 

duplexes at Woodcroft Estate. Once the 

village is completely built, Generation 

Homes Christchurch will continue their 

relationship with Woodcroft Estate, taking 

responsibility for the unit’s general upkeep 

and maintenance. 

“Generation Homes has been 

great to work with. We’ve had good 

communication and their workmanship is 

excellent. They also guarantee their build 

times,” says Adam Yates, CEO of Karaka 

Pines Villages. 

This positive working relationship 

is reiterated by Evan Beker, Joint 

Venture Partner of Generation Homes 

Christchurch. 

“We’ve enjoyed partnering with Karaka 

Pines Villages, who have considerable 

expertise in developing and managing 

lifestyle villages. It’s a great working 

relationship between all parties involved, 

including trades and suppliers. We’re 

particularly excited to have completed The 

Pavilion. It’s an amazing addition at a time 

when connecting with others isn’t easy yet 

more important than ever. It will bring 

people together,” says Evan. 

Woodcroft Estate offers its residents 

independence and flexibility along with 

the advantage of owning and managing 

their village. The villas and duplexes 

are larger and more spacious than is 

usually seen in such villages. They are 

maintenance-free and residents live in a 

safe and supportive environment. 

“We have six villages throughout the 

country under the Karaka Pines banner. 

Adam Yates & Evan Beker. 

All offer residents the financial benefit 

of keeping the capital gain of their unit,” 

explains Adam. 

At Woodcroft Estate, people have a 

choice of five different unit designs, 

priced from $420,000 for a standard two 

bedroom, 116sqm duplex with a single 

garage. Larger standalone villas starting 

at 173sqm are priced from $560,000. The 

final cost depends on chosen specifications 

and features. Ownership is Licence to 

Occupy with the benefit of the full capital 

value/gain being passed onto the owner 

when a unit is sold. 

To learn more, contact Corinne Blackie 

at Woodcroft Estate on 021 292 1141. 

The Woodcroft Estate showhome at 34

Irrigation vital in hot 

dry weather 

Now the hot days of summer are on their way, 

Canterbury home owners will be wanting to make 

full use of their outdoor areas to entertain family 

and friends, so having lawns and gardens in tip-top 

condition will be a priority. 

Phil Hudson of Freeman Irrigation advises that 

now is the best time to have maintenance work done 

on irrigation systems so they are in good working 

order to meet summer demand. This will also prevent 

the inconvenience and additional costs of having 

landscaping repaired if problems are discovered and 

need fixing during summer. 

“Some irrigation system problems are easily 

fixed, but they have to be identified to be repaired,” 

Phil says, “so now is the ideal time to book in for 

maintenance and servicing.” 

The most important part of keeping an irrigation 

system in good working order is having regular 

maintenance done on the sprays, rotors and solenoid 

valves, he says. 

Some of the basic problems include clogged 

sprinklers; leaking sprinklers and valves; obstructed 

sprinklers; leaking/blocked solenoid valves; overspray 

onto footpaths, streets or buildings; design problems; 

missing nozzles or pipe leaks and breaks. 

Smart controls for irrigation systems are 

convenient for home owners and many people have 

been asking about them, says Phil. 

“We have a range of smartphone controllers and 

rain sensors that can be fitted to most systems, 

allowing to have easy control from anywhere. 

“If you want to save money and conserve water a 

good rain sensor is an affordable solution. We can 

supply and fit the Wireless Rain-Clik Sensor that 

automatically shuts off your sprinkler system, so you 

don’t have to worry if you are away from home if it 

rains.” 

The latest technology 

also comes into play with 

automated WiFi – the 

sprinklers can be connected to 

weather station forecasts so if 

rain is expected the amount of 

water is reduced. 

Freeman Irrigation has a 

range of irrigation services, 

not just for residential homes 

but also parks, golf courses, 

horticultural and viticultural 

properties, sub-divisions and 

commercial properties.

Local expert can help 

redesign your garden 

Days spent at home during lockdown 

has given home owners an opportunity 

to look at their gardens and, with longer 

days and warmer temperatures on the 

horizon it is a good time to start planning 

your new garden or revamping your 

existing one. 

Landscape designer Sharon Crofts 

lives locally and says a good way to start 

is with a consultation to discuss your 

ideas. She will then design a concept and 

planting schedule to create a garden that 

iss unique to you and your lifestyle. 

While many homeowners like to 

plan their own gardens, calling on a 

professional designer can be very helpful 

as they often have design and planting 

ideas or innovative landscape options the 

home gardener hadn’t thought of, Sharon 

says. 

At this time of year too, garden centres 

and nurseries are well stocked with new 

plants and shrubs ready for planting in 

all areas of the garden and having your 

personalised landscape plan takes away 

the confusion over which plants go 

where. 

Homeowners have the option of 

implementing the plan themselves. If 

not Sharon Crofts Landscape Design has 

a team of experienced and professional 

contractors who will complete the 

work to exacting standards and who 

work throughout Canterbury including 

residential properties, rural and lifestyle 

blocks and new subdivisions, particularly 

in the Selwyn area. 

Having your paving or decking areas 

professional designed and executed will 

give the landscaping that professional 

edge which, in turn, will add value to the 

property. 

Sharon enjoys working collaboratively 

with her clients and transforming initial 

plans into reality within budget and on 

time. Her many years of experience also 

help when it comes to what planting 

works in the Canterbury climate and with 

local soils.

Don’t forget the pantry 

Spring cleaning can seem a 

daunting task but breaking it down 

into smaller jobs makes it easier 

to achieve. The pantry can be a 

complete mess in many kitchens 

so take the opportunity to have a 

clean out and it will be easier to 

find what you need. 

Firstly, empty your pantry 

completely. Don’t bother wiping 

down bottles and jars until you 

have determined what to keep. 

Thoroughly wipe your food storage 

area with a non-toxic cleanser. 

Pantry staples have notoriously 

long shelf lives, but even dried 

goods need to go eventually. First, 

check all expiry dates on items that 

have them — toss everything that 

is expired. Second, evaluate if you 

have used the item in the past six 

months — or if you think you ever 

will. Donate any unwanted items 

with a reasonable expiry date to a 

local food bank. 

Once opened, oils will generally 

last from four to six months. If you 

are unsure of the date you opened 

your oil, always taste and smell it 

before using it. Specialty oils such 

as sesame, truffle or walnut should be 

stored in your fridge, not your cupboard. 

Pasta typically comes with a best before 

date, however, if you have stored it in a 

secondary container, you may not be sure 

how long you’ve had it. Pasta can last up 

to two years unopened, but once opened 

and exposed to air, it will go stale. 

White rice is magically resilient, 

so chances are it is fine. Brown rice, 

however, has a layer of bran that contains

oil and has a maximum shelf life of three 

to six months. 

All-purpose flour stored in a dry, clean, 

cool area will last for one year. Whole 

wheat flour has a slightly shorter shelf 

life (again due to the bran layer) of nine 

Our Services 

months. 

Dried spices and herbs can lose 

their flavour over time although 

their shelf life is up to two years. 

Replace them if you think you are 

losing some of the flavour. 

While there isn’t a defined time 

for baking powder or soda to go 

stale, once opened they begin to 

absorb moisture and lose their 

impact. To test your baking 

powder, mix 1 tsp with 1/2 cup 

hot water. If the mixture bubble 

immediately, it is still active. For 

baking soda mix 1/4 tsp with 

2 tsp vinegar — if it bubbles 

immediately, keep it. 

When it comes to restocking 

your pantry here are four quick 

tips: 

• Wipe down all bottles and jars 

with your vinegar water solution. 

• Use empty mason jars to store 

bagged spices or dried goods. They 

are easier to stack and seal well, 

preventing moisture absorption. 

• Keep the items you cook 

with every day front and centre. 

Organise the remaining items by 

grouping similar things together. 

• Keep a permanent marker near 

your pantry. Date everything when it is 

opened. 

Now enjoy being able to find 

everything you need and want….

Family wagon with performance 

MERCEDES-BENZ is certainly 

covering all bases in the sport 

utility vehicle market. 

Its product line-up is extensive 

and it’s still growing. The 

company has just launched a 

brand new range of SUVs – the 

GLB series. 

There are three variants in the 

line-up – 200, 250 and 35, all 

turbocharged. Put simply the 

designations represent a 1.3-litre 

variant at 120kW, and two 2-litre 

variants at 165kW and 225kW 

respectively, the latter essentially 

utilise the same power plant but 

with greater boost for the 35. 

This evaluation surrounds the 

250, it is priced at $92,900, the 

200 and 35 list at $78,900 and 

$104,900 respectively. These 

prices are relatively familyfriendly; 

sure it’s out of the 

mainstream, but if you want 

an SUV and are interested in 

a premium brand, the GLB is 

competitive. 

The GLB series is very 

traditional in its design, it’s a 

seven-seater, albeit compact, 

and it carries four-wheel-drive 

mechanicals, well at least it does 

in 250 and 35 form, the entrylevel 

model is front-wheel-drive 

only. 

Powering the GLB are the 

engines which have filtered 

through other Mercedes-Benz 

product. I’ve experienced the 

250 engine many times before 

and I have always commented 

on its smooth, quiet operation; 

it needs to be, there are a raft 

of other four-cylinder, 2-litre 

turbocharged engines on the 

market and they are all refined, 

the GLB’s unit is up to par and 

lacks nothing, even in low power 

form. 

The 250 is also rated with 

350Nm of torque, which is an 

impressive and useful figure, 

but if you are interested in more 

bottom end grunt the 35 pumps 

out an extra 50Nm. 

I’d be comfortable with the 

250, it’s no slouch when it comes 

to performance, Mercedes-Benz 

claims a 6.9sec run to 100km/h 

and through the mid-range 

it fairly hunts through an 

overtaking manoeuvre taking just 

4.7sec to make 120km/h from 

80km/h. 

These are good times for a 

chunky SUV, the GLB weighs in 

at 1721kg, so it’s no lightweight, 

which reinforces how versatile 

and honest the engine is, and if 

you listen carefully you can just 

pick that something exciting sits 

under the bonnet, there’s a wellmuffled 

exhaust throb when the 

engine is under load. 

The engine is also the fuelmiser 

that modern turbocharging 

FAMILY-FRIENDLY: The Mercedes-Benz GLB series builds 

on an extensive range of wagons from the company. 

MERCEDES-BENZ GLB250: Sport utility vehicle available in three levels. 

techniques provide us with. 

A combined cycle average of 

7.7-litres per 100km is claimed. 

During my time in the test car the 

fuel usage readout was constantly 

listing around 8.6l/100km with 

an instantaneous readout of 

6l/100km recorded at 100km/h in 

eighth gear. 

On the subject of fuel usage, 

I must mention the display 

graphics make saving fuel easy, 

the fonts and colours are easy 

to read and understand, and 

their constant presence reminds 

the driver to take it easy on the 

throttle. 

That’s part of a comprehensive 

display graphic structure, a 

wide panel stretches across the 

dash area and it contains much 

depth in terms of functionality 

and detail. There’s also the 

voice command system that 

is being incorporated into all 

Mercedes-Benz product. Say 

“Hey Mercedes’’ and with further 

prompts many of the operating 

systems will be adjusted at your 

beck and call. 

On the road the GLB rides 

beautifully, it doesn’t get air 

suspension, but such is the 

quality of the underpinnings I 

had to keep constantly reminding 

myself of that. 

The spring and damper rates 

are set for a glorious ride, bump 

and ruts are smoothed out, 

• Price – Mercedes-Benz 

GLB250, $92,900 

• Dimensions – Length, 

4634mm; width, 1834mm; 

height, 1658mm 

• Configuration – Fourcylinder, 

four-wheel-drive, 

1991cc, 165kW, 350Nm, 

eight-speed automatic. 

• Performance – 

0-100km/h, 6.9sec 

• Fuel usage – 7.7l/100km 

while absorption through the 

suspension provides a smooth, 

controlled in-cabin ride. 

Interestingly, the front seats have 

quite firm squabs, it’s like you 

are sitting on them and not in 

them, which is a surprise and not 

something I’ve noticed before 

in Mercedes-Benz product. 

Nevertheless, you quickly become 

used to it and it’s far from a 

problem. 

I took the test car west through 

the Malvern Hills, one of my 

favourite high country roads, 

returning to the city via Hororata 

and Burnham. The GLB is a 

fabulous highway cruiser, it is 

superbly quiet and, as mentioned, 

the suspension affords a ride that 

doesn’t tax the driver on a long 

journey. 

Riding on sport specification 

Bridgestone (235/40 x 20in) 

tyres, steering feel is decisive 

and with power channelled to all 

four corners there’s a feeling of 

stability and surety inside that is 

only associated with all-wheeldrive. 

As is traditional fare, the 

GLB gets several dynamic drive 

modes, I didn’t use either of the 

sport modes other than just for 

exploratory purposes, the 

engine is feisty enough in 

normal mode and is easily a 

match for the role of a mid-size 

SUV, and in true luxury car 

fashion the entire driveline reeks 

of refinement. 

The GLB is also incredibly 

well appointed, there’s nothing 

you’d want for, and if you take 

into account Mercedes-Benz’s 

extensive list of options and 

extras, then it can be tailormade 

to suit each and every individual’s 

requirements. 

I can’t imagine that 

Mercedes-Benz will be 

developing another SUV any time 

soon; however, I suspect another 

couple of models will be added to 

the GLB series as time goes on. 

Mercedes-Benz is in a good 

situation, SUV sales are showing 

no signs of slowing, and even 

though the market is tough due 

to the coronavirus pandemic, 

buyers are still looking for the 

complete family wagon. 

The GLB goes a long way to 

address that. 

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.

separate laundry assures hassle-free living for all the 

family with plenty of play-space for the kids on level 

lawns.

Checklist for selling your home 

MAKE SMALL FIXES 

Inspect your home with a buyer’s 

eyes, and correct the flaws that are 

most egregious (if affordable) or 

can be relatively easily fixed—from 

repairing cracks in the walkways 

to repainting dingy walls or oiling 

creaky hinges. 

SET A PRICE 

A real estate agent will give you a 

market analysis free of charge or 

commitment. Ask a few to get a 

broader picture of the market, then 

ask to see listings for properties 

similar to yours that have sold 

in the past six months. Check 

out comparable listings yourself 

in the real estate section of your 

newspaper or on websites. Then 

decide whether you want a quick, 

easy sale or the highest possible 

price. 

CLEAN & DECLUTTER 

Weed out excess furniture, 

knicknacks, and “stuff ”—toss it, 

donate it, give it away, sell it at a 

yard sale, or put it into storage—so 

the house seems more spacious and 

buyers can imagine themselves in it. 

STAY VIGILIANT ABOUT 

MAINTENANCE 

From the moment you start 

showing your house, keep the lawn 

mowed, shrubs trimmed, gardens 

weeded, rooms spotless and 

clutter-free. 

READY YOUR HOME FOR 

OPEN DAYS 

Hide pocketable valuables, 

display fresh flowers or bowls 

of fruit, bake a batch of cookies 

for the homey smell, open the 

drapes, keep pets out of sight. 

DECIDE WHETHER TO DO 

YOUR OWN BUILDING 

INSPECTION 

It may save you time, 

especially with older homes, 

to identify—and potentially 

solve—problems your buyer’s 

inspection will discover later.

Dressing your property up for sale 

Your house is on the market and you hope to get a good price. 

While market performance will largely influence this, presenting 

your home at its best will help. 

First impressions count from the moment 

potential buyers view a property from the 

street to the moment they walk through the 

front door. 

Weed the garden, cut back unruly shrubs and 

prune trees where needed. Kill off weeds in the 

lawn, sprinkle grass seed over bald patches and 

fertilise the lawn. 

Indoors, tidy up. Get rid of excess or bulky 

furniture, toys, books, hobby items or fitness 

equipment and if too many photos on the wall 

pack these away so the home looks roomy. 

If there is a gap or a room needs enhancing, 

look at what you have. A piece of furniture 

might be painted up or an old leather bound 

book popped on the coffee table. Shelves 

will also add depth to a narrow space while 

mirrors may give the illusion of a larger space. 

In entryways, add an easy chair, small table, 

bookcase or large vase. 

Awkward spaces such as coved ceilings in 

attics or upstairs rooms might be converted 

into storage shelving and the room given 

a purpose as an office, playroom or extra 

bedroom so viewers can see how the room 

might be used. 

Stow possessions neatly in containers, 

shelving or tidily in cupboards; highlighting 

the storage potential within the home, ensuring 

it is clean and tidy for viewing at any time. 

Move the pets outside as not all buyers 

will be pet lovers while some may suffer pet 

allergies putting them off a house if they see a 

pet inside. 

If parts of the house look tired, consider 

renovating by painting walls, replacing worn 

carpet, or modernising the kitchen, bathroom 

and toilet; rooms that should sparkle. Replace 

tired cabinetry, or the benches and cupboard/ 

drawer fronts then update old toilets, showers 

or kitchen appliances. Modernising these 

rooms can lift the final selling price. 

Use consistent and light paint colours 

throughout for balance and seamlessness, 

making the house appear more spacious. An 

effect that is increased when walls and curtains 

share the same or a similar colour. 

Consider the personality and purpose of a 

room. Bright colours lift living areas especially 

if large and open. However, bedrooms are 

suited to calmer softer colours with just a 

touch of bold. Layer bedding or use throws for 

effect along with cushions or a stuffed toy in a 

children’s room. 

With curtaining, smaller patterns or plain 

fabrics are the rule for smaller rooms whereas 

larger patterns make spacious areas cosier. If 

blinds or drapes are past their best, replace 

these even if it is only with neutral cotton 

curtains. The effect will be worth it. 

Eco-friendly features will also add value for 

some buyers though not universally, however 

earthy natural colours and features are popular. 

Consider who your target buyers are likely to be 

and what will appeal to them.

SELLING YOUR HOME?

[Edition datE] 

Key reasons 

to buy new 

Buying new has many advantages. No one has 

yet lived in your brand new home and it has that 

new home smell and feel. 

That doesn’t appeal to the villa crowd. 

But many people dream of a home in a 

new suburb. 

There are many other advantages -- such 

as being able to customise the home before 

it’s built. Buyers love it that their build 

guarantee covers most things and there’s 

little maintenance to do for the first 10 

years. 

There are a long list of reasons some 

people dream of buying new. 

They include: 

• Current Building Code requirements 

specify a higher standard of insulation 

and glazing than you can expect in an 

older home, which makes your new home 

warmer in winter and cooler in summer, 

meaning cheaper to run. In addition there 

has been a vast improvement in the quality 

and technology of construction materials 

over the last decade. 

• New homes are designed for modern 

lifestyles with walk-in wardrobes, double 

or triple car garaging, en suites and heat 

pumps. 

• Internal access garaging. 

• Indoor-outdoor flow. Home builders 

before the 1970s rarely thought about this. 

• Automatic pool covers and electric 

curtains are included in a lot of new 

homes, he says. 

• In a new subdivision you’re not going 

to have five cross-leased small homes next 

door to your architecturally designed fivebedroom 

dream home, he says. 

• New purpose-built shopping and 

service centres cater for the modern life. 

• New schools can be popular. New 

schools are being designed with “Modern 

Learning Environments”, which are 

considered better layouts for 21st-century 

learning. 

Another important factor is it’s easier 

to get a mortgage. New Reserve Bank of 

New Zealand loan to value (LVR) ratio 

restrictions from October 1 don’t relate 

to new homes. Likewise the KiwiSaver 

HomeStart grant is doubled for first time 

buyers. 

When it comes to new apartment 

buildings they’re built to a higher standard 

of earthquake/fire proofing and, hopefully, 

are no longer leaky. 

There are, of course, disadvantages to 

buying new. Not everyone wants to wait 

six or 12 months to move into their home. 

Other downsides include: 

• Borrowing to cover the progress 

payments is more complex than taking out 

a mortgage on an existing property. 

• Builders and developers can go broke, 

leaving the buyer in an awkward position. 

• With some new homes the buyer 

effectively needs to become a project 

manager. 

• You have to deal with council for 

building and sometimes resource consent. 

• The location may be further from the 

centre than you wanted. 

• If it’s infill housing you might have a 

cross lease situation that some people find 

tricky. 

• There are often teething problems with 

a new build. 

• You won’t get a quaint tree-lined street. 

• Your section will most likely be smaller 

than that of an existing home. 

• Fences, paths and landscaping might 

need to be added at a cost.
