The one 

that 

didn’t 

get 

away 

• By Matt Slaughter 

ROLLESTON’S Vicky Van Der 

Zwet is hooked on salmon fishing 

after catching a big one over the 

weekend. 

Vicky has fished in the past 

but this was her first attempt at 

salmon fishing and the biggest 

fish she has ever caught “by far,” 

she said. 

She reeled in the 8.10kg, 

810mm salmon with the help of 

her husband Nico Van Der Zwet, 

an experienced fisherman, and 

10-year-old grandson Jake. 

Said Vicky: “This one took about 

five minutes and my husband was 

there to tell me what to do. 

“It was quite tiring. Definitely, 

it’s not easy because you’re not 

fishing with a huge rod but it was 

exciting.” 

She caught the fish about 8pm 

in the lagoon near the Rakaia 

River mouth on Saturday and 

Vicky also caught a small trout 

earlier that day.

benefit 

from

vehicle 

security 


POLICE SAY residents continue 

to be too casual when it comes to 

locking their vehicles. 

Senior Sergeant Dean Harker 

said about 80 per cent of vehicles 

which have had items stolen from 

them in the district in the last few 

months have been unlocked. 

Harker said the number of 

vehicles being targeted by thieves, 

and stolen, has become more 

noticeable. He estimates there 

have been more than 30 thefts 

recently. 

He said this is happening all 

across the district but some of 

the areas being hit the most are 

Rolleston, Lincoln and West 

Melton. 

Said Harker: “We had a 

spate of them in Lincoln and we 

had a spate in Rolleston. That’s 

probably in the last couple of 

months. 

“If they [thieves] know that it’s 

easy pickings in one area, they’ll 

keep going back there.”

WE’RE A trusting lot, and 

that is playing right into the 

hands of the crims. 

On page 1 today we 

beat a familiar drum; 

UNLOCKED vehicles 

continue to be a target for 

thieves. 

The definition of a breakin 

doesn’t apply here because 

the vehicles aren’t broken 

into; the thieves simply 

open the door and help 

themselves to whatever is 

inside. 

It is frustrating for 

the police. They take the 

complaint, go through the 

paperwork and cop the 

fallout when little comes of 

it except the insurance 

claim. 

Selwyn might be one of 

the most crime-free places 

in New Zealand but that will 

change as the population 

grows, and crims from 

further afield see us as easy 

pickings.

Girl’s support cat goes missing 

In Brief 

NEWS 3 


A PEBBLETON family is 

devastated after the mysterious 

loss of their cat Milo – a support 

animal for their daughter 

Isabella who has a head injury. 

And they’re worried foul 

play may have been a factor. 

Selwyn Times reported last 

year a two-year-old cat lost its 

eye after being shot by a rifle in 

Prebbleton. 

In January 2017, another 

two-year-old cat was shot with 

a .22 calibre bullet and his back 

left leg was amputated. He was 

shot again about a year later, this 

time in his front left leg, and had 

to be put down. 

Jacqueline Long said since her 

family moved to Guardsman 

Pl two-and-a-half years ago, 

three of their beloved cats, 

Jasmine, D’arcy and Milo have 

disappeared. 

Milo was the most recent to 

go missing on November 21 and 

Isabella has been crying herself 

to sleep ever since. 

Milo helped calm Isabella. 

Jacqueline said this played a 

vital role in letting her brain 

recover from a head injury 

sustained after being hit by a 

softball bat during school sport 

in 2018. 

“With brain injuries, your 

brain is so busy trying to heal, 

that you can’t moderate your 

emotions. 

“For her, [Isabella] it was 

calming, it was hugely calming. 

She’d sit down and Milo would 

just cuddle her. It just calmed 

her down and enabled her brain 

to get on with healing rather 

than processing emotions and 

feelings and physical reactions to 

stuff that she could not moderate,” 

said Jacqueline. 

She said Selwyn Times previous 

coverage of Prebbleton cat 

shootings makes her fear the 

worst may have happened to 

Milo, Jasmine and D’arcy. 

“All we know is that in the 

newspaper articles and the 

chit-chat around is that there 

have been cats that have made it 

home or been found and they’ve 

got gunshots in their bodies. 

“We don’t know whether that 

rumoured shooter is doing his 

or her thing again, we don’t 

know whether someone’s trapping 

cats, we don’t know. There’s 

just an absolute lack of bodies,” 

MISSING: Isabella (left) and 

Reuben Long’s beloved cats 

Milo, Jasmine and D’arcy have 

disappeared in two-and-a-half 

years living in Prebbleton.

pets or had a cat go missing in 

Prebbleton recently? Email matt.

she said. 

An SPCA spokeswoman said 

it has received reports of 

cats being shot in Prebbleton 

in January 2017, December 

2018 and June 2019, but none 

since. 

She said it is unclear if these 

shootings were linked or if the 

Long family’s cats may have 

been shot. 

“There are any number of 

reasons why cats go missing,’’ 

the spokeswoman said. 

COUNTDOWN APPEAL 

Developers have until the 

middle of this month to appeal 

the decision to decline the 

construction of a new Countdown 

supermarket in Lincoln. Shane 

Kennedy, who applied for resource 

consent to build the supermarket 

in the Flemington subdivision 

on Birchs Rd, has not said yet 

whether he will appeal. Fortyseven 

supported the development, 

23 submissions were in opposition 

and two were neutral. 

STUDENTS VISIT SITES 

The Lincoln Rotary Club, in 

conjunction with Lincoln High 

School, held a building and 

construction day last month. A 

group of nine year 11 students 

visited three construction 

companies to gain an insight 

into the building industry, which 

they are interested in working in 

after they finish school. The three 

companies visited were Concision, 

Rolleston, ZOG Steel Framing, 

Wigram, and Metro Glass, 

Hornby.

More toxic algae 


POTENTIALLY toxic algae 

benthic cyanobacteria has been 

found in the Selwyn River at 

the Whitecliffs Domain and 

Whitecliffs Rd section. 

The Canterbury District 

Health Board has issued a health 

warning and says there are other 

access points along the river that 

may have benthic cyanobacteria 

in them. 

It comes after the same sort 

of algae was found at the Glentunnel 

section of the river two 

weeks ago. 

People are advised to 

treat every low-flowing 

river cautiously and check 

for the presence of benthic 

cyanobacteria. 

Canterbury medical officer of 

health Dr Cheryl Brunton said 

the algae looks dark brown or 

black and can produce toxins 

harmful to people and animals. 

“Exposure may cause skin 

rashes, nausea, stomach cramps, 

tingling and numbness around 

the mouth and fingertips. 

“If you experience any of 

these symptoms, visit your 

doctor immediately, also let 

your doctor know if you’ve had 

contact with dark brown/black 

algal mats or water in this area,” 

Brunton said. 

As well as people, animals, 

particularly dogs, are being 

advised to avoid areas of the 

river which contain the algae 

until health warnings have been 

lifted. 

She said people and animals 

should remain out of the waterways 

until the warnings have 


found in Selwyn River 

HEALTH WARNING: Toxic algae has been found in 

the Whitecliffs Domain and Whitecliffs Rd section of 

the Selwyn River after previously being found in the 

Glentunnel section. 

been lifted. 

Pets that show signs of illness 

after coming into contact with 

algal mats should be taken to a 

vet immediately. 

The district council is following 

agreed procedures and 

monitoring its nearby drinking 

water intakes. 

Environment Canterbury is 

monitoring the sites and the 

public will be advised of any 

changes in water quality. 

‘There were probably 

a dozen cars that had 

their windows down’ 

• From page 1 

The items were most commonly 

stolen from vehicles in 

these thefts included 

money, clothing, 

sports bags, laptops 

and remote controls 

for garages. 

However, he said 

“anything of value” is 

generally targeted by 

thieves. 

Thieves are striking 

mostly in early hours 

of the morning, 

targeting cars parked on streets, 

in driveways and in car parks. 

• From page 1 

Vicky said the fish will be sent 

away to be smoked and she is 

looking forward to eating and 

sharing it with others. 

“We love salmon. We get it 

smoked into vaccum-packed 

bags. We’re going to give some 

away,” she said. 

Dean Harker 

“I went to one of the car 

parks by the [Rolleston] police 

station probably 

two or three weeks 

ago and there were 

probably a dozen 

cars that had their 

windows down. 

“A couple of those 

had radar detectors, 

one of them actually 

had a cellphone on the 

dashboard,” Harker 

said. 

Radar detectors 

have been targeted by thieves, he 

said. 

Smoked salmon to be 

shared with others 

There have been a few salmon 

sighted in the lower Rakaia 

River recently and this is said to 

be promising for the rest of the 

season. 

The salmon season runs 

until March next year, and 

anglers are allowed to catch one 

fish a day.

A $360,000 pathway linking 

Whitecliffs to Glentunnel in 

an area which has previously 

been deemed dangerous may 

be completed sooner than first 

planned. 

A number of Whitecliffs 

residents, led by contractor Neil 

Walker, have spent the last 10 

months helping to build about 

500m of track on private land at 

Breakneck Corner, about halfway 

between the two towns. 

The district council originally 

planned to complete the 3.5km 

track by 2031 as part of its Long 

Term Plan. 

Sue Wragg, who helped complete 

the first section of track, 

said the area where work has 

been done was previously “very 

dangerous” for parents using 

wheelchairs and children on 

bikes. 

“We weren’t prepared to wait 

until [2031], it’s as simple as that, 

really.” 

The district council has 

indicated the track may now be 

completed as soon as next year 

because of the community’s efforts. 

Said district council 

infrastructure manager Andrew 

Mazey: “The draft 2021-31 

Long Term Plan is proposing 

to recommend to council that 

this cycleway should be funded 

and undertaken in the 2021/22 

financial year. 

“The proactive efforts by the 

community to address a particular 

safety problem themselves by 

providing this initial section has 

prompted council to consider 

bringing the remainder of the 

original project forward so it can 

be fully completed sooner rather 

than later. 


Residents help build pathway 

OPEN: Mark Wragg cuts the ribbon to the first section of new a pathway between 

Whitecliffs and Glentunnel, which the community helped to build. 

“There are no records of 

pedestrian or cyclist crashes in 

this area, but the area where the 

community has completed its 

works and the improvements in 

safety for pedestrians and cyclists 

were key to enable full pathway 

link between Glentunnel and 

Whitecliffs to be successfully 

completed.” 

Wragg said building the first 

section of track would not have 

been possible without the support 

of Walker, who built the section 

of track, Sam Richards from 

Richards Consulting Engineers 

and Steve Murphy Ltd, who supported 

the project. 

The cost of completing the first 

part of the track was $14,000 and 

this was covered by donations 

from two families. The cost of 

the remainder of the track will be 

covered by the district council.

New east 

Rolleston 

school named 

Te Rohutu Whio 


TE ROHUTU Whio has been 

chosen as the name of a new 

school in east Rolleston. 

The name was gifted by Te 

Taumutu Rūnanga and means 

“the whistling rohutu.” 

A rohutu is a type of tree. 

Traditionally, spinning tops 

made of the rohutu tree were 

used for entertainment at whare 

tapere (places of entertainment). 

The role of the whare tapere 

was about learning and testing 

new skills. 

Said principal Kate Morgan: 

“Our new name reflects this and 

also the importance that knowledge 

grows slowly and surely. 

“The leaves of the rohutu tree 

are heart-shaped and reflect 

aroha which will be a huge focus 

for our school.” 

Te Rohutu Whio has received 

$20 million in Government 

funding. 

It will be spent on its construction 

and, once finished, it will 

accommodate 400 pupils. 

The school is scheduled to 

open at the end of January 2022 

and will be led by Morgan, who 

is currently the deputy principal 

at Merrin School.

SPEEDWAY RACING runs 

in Glen Leech’s family’s blood, 

so it is fitting he has mowed a 

racetrack into the lawn at their 

Darfield home. 

The practice course on their 

rural block gets plenty of use 

from their children Rubie, 10, 

and Harry, 6. 

Rubie and Harry’s interest in 

racing is not surprising, given 

they are the third generation of 

two speedway families. 

The siblings are not competing 

yet, but the backyard track 

has proved the perfect training 

ground to hone their skills behind 

the wheel. 

The racetrack is so well mown, 

it won the John Deere Lawn 

Legend competition. 

Glen won a Z335E Residential 

ZTrak Zero-Turn lawnmower 

for his efforts. 

Glen’s wife Kylie entered him 

in the contest after seeing it on 

Facebook. 

She built her entry around 

how much their family loves 

their 0.6ha lawn and personal 

racetrack. 

Glen’s shock at winning 

was soon replaced with his 

excitement to replace his old 

equipment which made building 

and maintaining the backyard 

speedway a tough task. 

He mows the lawn and track 

about once a week. 

The rest of the back paddock 

receives a monthly maintenance 

trim which helps define the 

course’s tight bends and long 

straights. 

“The mower we were using 

had a catcher and we realised 

it was not suited to our larger 

property as the grass piles of 

clippings were really stacking

THE ARTICLE The face behind 

Backyard racetrack 

earns Leech family new mower 

up. We learned buying a mower 

without a mulcher was a mistake,” 

Glen said. 

The family moved from a smaller 

property in Darfield to their 

bigger lifestyle block in March just 

two weeks before New Zealand’s 

Covid-19 lockdown. 

“We felt very lucky to be here. 

“The kids were outside all the 

time, on their bikes, scooters, 

playing on the lawn or out in the 

back paddock racing around,” 

Kylie said. 

RACE-READY: Glen and Kylie Leech, 

with their children Rubie and Harry 

and the new mower creating a 

backyard speedway track. 

The family’s previous lawn had 

been impacted by earthquakes, 

creating a rippled and rough 

surface interspersed with holes, 

which was not suitable for gokarts 

or playing in general. 

John Deere, tactical marketing 

manager Fraser Scott congratulated 

the Leech family on their 

win. 

“Glen’s love for his lawn 

and dedication to mowing the 

racetrack for his kids definitely 

makes him a lawn legend.”

Mullet fundraiser 

for men’s health 


LINCOLN HIGH School 

took part in a different 

kind of Movember to 

support men’s health. 

Moustaches weren’t an 

option for many of the 

school’s students but they 

still wanted to help the 

cause, creating Mulletvember. 

Said student Reuben 

Ryan, who took part: “I’ve 

put a year of hard work 

and growth into the filthy 

mullet and now it’s got a 

good cause and purpose to 

go towards. 

“Men’s mental health 

is a big thing and people 

need to be more aware and 

to help and support those 

blokes who are in need of 

it and what better way to 

do it than a classic mullet 

removal.’’ 

Said fellow student Sam 

Draper: “I like mullets and 

I thought it was a good way 

to raise money for a good 

cause.’’ 

Barber Ben Scott from 

Benny’s Barber Shop volunteered 

his time to go to 

the school on October 30 

to cut some of the boy’s 

hair into mullets. 

Said deputy principal 

Kylie Horgan: “This was a 

great show for the rest of 

the school and really got 

the month off to a good 

start, creating a buzz about 

the mullets in the school.” 

Throughout the month 

the boys were hard at work 

showing off their mullets 

and collecting donations to

try and reach their goal of 

raising $5000, she said. 

Canterbury Sports 

Wholesale printed and sent 

out the Mulletvember T- 

shirts. These helped spread 

the word and gain extra 

support. 

Movember raises money 

for prostate, and testicular 

cancer, and more than 

1250 other men-related 

health issues worldwide.

HALF A WORLD away in 

England, Barbara Hind is 

on the search for more 

information about her 

grandmother Annie Spring, 

who lived in Weedons. 

Hind is 74 and has never been 

to New Zealand but wants to 

know more about the 30 years 

Annie spent here, including 13 

in Weedons. 

Annie moved to New Zealand 

from Maryport, Cumberland, 

England, some time between 

1921 and 1928. 

She married John Spring some 

time after arriving. 

The couple lived in Weedons 

from about 1946 until John’s 

death in 1957. Annie moved 

back to England in 1959. 

They had previously lived 

on Ferry Rd, Woolston, in 

Timaru and other parts of 

Canterbury. 

Said Hind: “She obviously met 

John Spring sometime before 

1928 as the records for that year 

show them living together at 8 

Ferry Rd, Canterbury. By 1935 

they were shown as married, 

but I have not been able to find 

a record. 

“The records always show 

John as a labourer, although 

in 1946 when they were living 

in Weedons he is shown as a 

farmer. 

“Annie was always shown as 

a housewife. They lived there 

[Weedons] until John’s death, 

aged 70, in 1957. I have not 

been able to find a record of any 

children.” 

After Annie died in 1961, her

Heiler complimented Hogan on 

applying for, and being so successful 

in, her involvement in a large 

number of environmental and 

water-related projects between her

NEWS 

The Faces of Selwyn exhibition was launched last year 

and a new set of 12 stories about people in the district 

are on display at Selwyn Libraries. The stories, written 

by Hayley Tate, celebrate diversity and highlight the 

differences in people’s backgrounds and journeys to 

Selwyn. Selwyn Times continues its coverage. 


From the battered red zone to Rolleston 

Craig and Kelly Pierce 

MOVING INTO their first home 

in Avondale together, Craig and 

Kelly Pierce never thought they 

would leave it. 

Then the February 22, 2011, 

earthquake hit. 

After the quake, their house 

was red-zoned and they were 

forced to leave. The couple had 

to make a quick decision about 

where they were going to move. 

“I think the worse thing was 

not knowing where we were going.” 

Kelly said. 

“You went to bed each night 

thinking, where am I going to be 

living in the next six months?” 

Craig said. 

Craig and Kelly began looking 

for a house in town but with no 

luck. They decided to look at the 

option of building and Kelly’s 

brother, who had done some 

plumbing in Rolleston, suggested 

they look there. They found 

a section they liked early the 

following year and moved in 10 

months later. 

Before buying the land, Craig 

had never been out to Rolleston 

and says they would not have 

built a house either. 

“We quite like older houses, we 

weren’t specifically looking for a 

new house.” 

But seven years later, Craig, 

Kelly and their nine-year old 

daughter Vienna enjoy living in 

Rolleston. They feel very fortunate 

to have privacy, peace and 

quiet, yet be close to Vienna’s 

school, shops and a park to walk 

the dog. 

“You look out and you don’t 

feel like you’re in the city,” Craig 

said. 

Being away from Christchurch 

made it easier to forget about the 

earthquake and there was wellneeded 

peace and quiet from it. 

Before moving to Rolleston, 

Avondale was like a ghost town 

with residents leaving their 

houses behind. Being one of the 

last families to leave the area, the 

couple recall walking around 

feeling vulnerable. 

“It was horrible when you were 

living there and you were walking 

the dog around the block 

and you’d see broken windows 

and empty houses and it became 

quite eerie.” 

Now when Kelly and Craig 

walk the dog in Rolleston, they 

have a sense of safety. 

Craig and Kelly were not 

alone in moving out to Selwyn, 

after the earthquake the district 

grew in population by 47 per 

cent led by people moving from 

SATISFIED: 

Craig and 

Kelly Pierce,

daughter 

Vienna, are

Christchurch. 

The family likes to participate 

in park runs at Foster Park on 

Saturdays, camp out at Glentunnel 

and drive out to Darfield for 

the forest walks and the bakery. 

Kelly volunteers for Bellyful 

Selwyn, delivering meals around 

Selwyn to new mothers and families 

with unwell children, while 

Craig has fun biking around the 

district. 

Craig admits the earthquake is 

the reason his family moved, but 

they would not be rushing back 

into town now, except for a beach 

trip or to his favourite record 

store, Penny Lane.

Celebrate 

summer and Selwyn 

Hit the court with the Canterbury Rams, bike the trails, crack the secret code or take a picnic in 

the park – Selwyn District Council’s Summer in Selwyn events programme is back for another 

jam-packed summer. 

The Summer in Selwyn guide — delivered to Selwyn homes over the weekend (rural delivery 

arriving this week) — provides information on more than 80 activity and event options organised 

by the Council and available around the district until the end of March. 

This year the Canterbury Rams will be joining in the popular Basketball Jams in March. The 

Council has also included the new Selwyn Bike Trail Challenge where people can enjoy Selwyn’s 

great bike trails and take on the challenge to crack the secret code to win a prize, Council’s 

Community Services and Facilities Group Manager, Denise Kidd says. 

“We’ve brought back and refreshed a great range of favourite activities for people to enjoy from 

craft and technology experiences to music and outdoor fun. But we’re also pleased to have added 

a few really cool new events to encourage people to explore and enjoy, from their own backyard 

with the Selwyn Garden Series to further afield with the bike trail challenge. 

“After a tough year we’ve been working hard on ways to celebrate both summer and Selwyn and 

we think this guide will help people to do just that.” 

Council events include three outdoor movies and a drive-in movie starting with a sprinkling of 

Christmas magic with Arthur Christmas at Anderson Square in Leeston on Friday 4 December. 

The popular Teddy Bears’ Picnic is back, along with Pool Parties in Sheffield, Darfield and 

Southbridge and a special Pool of Rock party at Selwyn Aquatic Centre. 

The Selwyn Libraries team has lots in store for Selwyn this summer, from sending people on 

virtual travels with their Summer Reading Challenge “read around the world”, to resourceful

‘Contamination crew’ to support recycling 

A team of four is hitting the streets from this week to support Selwyn residents to recycle right. 

Since the Level 4 lockdown the Council has seen an increase in the number of loads of recycling that 

could not be recycled and were sent to landfill because of contamination. Seven percent of loads 

(31,380 kg) had to be sent to landfill in the last month alone. 

The contamination crew will be helping by providing guidance on how to improve recycling. 

Council Solid Waste Manager Andrew Boyd says over the past six months the Council has provided 

updated bin stickers and magnetic easy recycling guides to residents, and run newspaper and social 

media advertising to support good recycling. The contamination crew is the next step to help people. 

The team will be checking the contents of recycling bins and providing information to householders 

where they have put the wrong items in. 

“We know that Selwyn people care about their recycling, and that it can be confusing,” he says. “By 

having the crew on the street, they’ll be able to provide specific information to households about items 

they may have mistakenly thought were okay to recycle.” 

Where there is a small amount of contamination, the bin will still be collected, but the crew will leave 

an information tag on the bin handle letting people know about items in their bin that could not be 

recycled. If there is a large amount of contamination then the bin won’t be collected that week and 

people will be advised about the contamination. 

“This is so we can avoid contaminating the rest of the recycling load, 

and having to send it to landfill,” Mr Boyd says. 

In extreme cases — where people consistently put out large quantities 

of items that can’t be recycled — the Council may consider removing 

bins from households, but Mr Boyd says the focus will be on helping 

people first. 

“We’re dedicated to looking after Selwyn by doing our best with 

rubbish and recycling. We’re not out here to tell people off, we want to 

help people to recycle right, and providing advice directly should help 

to clean up the recycling”. 

Nice 

work! 

Thanks for getting 

recycling right. 

Last chance to have your say on 

district rules 

There’s two weeks left to have your say on the Proposed Selwyn 

District Plan. 

The Proposed Plan is basically a ‘rule book’ for what you can or 

can’t do in the district and what may require a resource consent 

from the Council. 

The plan takes account of the rapid and continuing growth we’ve seen 

in Selwyn in the last decade and sets rules and policies for where that 

growth should occur. It aims to help ensure the district continues to 

grow in a way that meets your needs and those of people moving to 

join in the great lifestyle and opportunities Selwyn offers. 

The Proposed Plan provides a framework for growth and unlocks the 

economic potential of our district in a sustainable way over the next 10 

to 15 years. It provides direction for how townships should grow, and 

where and what kind of businesses and industries are encouraged. 

It also simplifies the zones that help guide what you can and can’t 

build, maps the risk from natural hazards such as flooding and 

liquefaction, identifies our heritage sites, buildings and trees and 

proposes rules to protect our landscape and night sky, Council 

Environmental and Regulatory Services Planning Manager Ben 

Rhodes says. 

“These are key decisions about where we’re going and what life will 

look like in the district, so we really want to hear from you.” 

“So far we’ve seen a lot of interest in our drop-in sessions and 

community events, with hundreds of you talking to our planners 

and asking questions, and we’ve also received 35 submissions. 

Key areas of interest to date include queries about rezoning or 

subdividing land, designations, flooding hazard and family flats.” 

You can find out more and make a submission on the plan until 5pm 

Friday 11 December at selwyn.govt.nz/districtplanreview. 

Drinking? Don’t Drive 

The Selwyn road safety team is launching its annual anti-drinkdriving 

campaign. Alcohol is the second biggest contributing factor 

to road crashes in New Zealand. 

This years ‘That’s a Fail’ campaign is reminding people of the risks 

that drink-driving brings. Everyone’s perception of how much they 

can drink is different, however the law is precise. If you’re over 

20 years of age the legal blood alcohol limit for driving is no more 

than 50 milligrams of alcohol for every 100 mls of blood. There is a 

zero alcohol limit if you are under 20. That means if you drive after 

consuming even one drink, you can be charged with drink-driving. 

Summer, and particularly Christmas, is a time when people enjoy 

catching up with friends and attending functions, but a drink-driving 

conviction or causing a crash has lifelong consequences, Road 

Safety Education Coordinator Jessica Fairbrass says. “The summer 

months are a time to enjoy and celebrate. We’re reminding people 

to plan ahead before drinking. If you’re planning on drinking, plan 

not to drive.” 

ON THE 

ROADS

Town centre anchor building gets roof 

The anchor project for the new Rolleston town centre has passed its latest milestone with the roof going 

on and work moving indoors. 

The roof has been installed on Te Ara Ātea, the new library and anchor building for the Rolleston town 

centre, as the building prepares to be the first open in the new town centre. 

Work has begun on fitting the building’s windows and sliding doors, including the large second floor 

windows that will provide views across Rolleston and out to the Southern Alps, along with the internal walls. 

The 2,200 square metre, two-storey building is due to be finished in late 2021. It will house the new 

Rolleston Library, along with community spaces, exhibition areas, a workshop room, tamariki area and 

Waka Huia, a quiet room with a museum-quality display wall on the outside and displays of taonga from 

Te Taumutu Rūnanga. 

Te Ara Ātea will open onto the town square 

for the new Rolleston town centre. The town 

centre will feature retail areas, a sensory 

space, kai gardens and a youth area. 

A hearing on the design of the town centre 

has been completed this week. The project 

team was pleased to receive a significant 

number of submissions from interested 

community members on the design of the 

town centre. These will be incorporated into 

the final design which is expected to be 

completed early March next year.

Aussie move for trainer Nathan Purdon 

• By Michael Guerin 

YOUNG GUN trainer Nathan 

Purdon says he is looking 

forward to branching out on his 

own in what could ultimately be 

a multi-state Australian career. 

The 25-year-old will leave 

his successful partnership with 

Chrissie Dalgety at West Melton 

in late January to return to Australia, 

where he has tasted group 

one success before when training 

a very small team. 

But this time Purdon will be 

looking to establish himself 

rather than only have that small 

team or work for others. 

“I think the time is right and 

after discussing it with a few 

people, including dad (Mark) I 

think Victoria is the right place 

to base myself,” Purdon said. 

“I have really appreciated the 

opportunities here with Chrissie 

and with Cran advising but 

things are changing with dad 

and Natalie taking a step back 

in the business and that could 

present some opportunities in 

Australia. 

“Dad has suggested to me he 

would be happy to come across 

to the sales in Australia, where 

he is going to be campaigning 

horses in Sydney anyway, and we 

can look at horses together. 

“He will see if any of his 

owners are interested in buying

horses at those sales and leaving 

them in Australia for me to train 

but I am also going to reach out 

to some of my owners. 

“But I am going over there 

with a clean slate so I am going 

to build the team up from 

scratch and that will mean I am 

available to buy and train horses 

for Australian owners too.” 

Purdon could be moving at

horses to Craig Cross and Luke 

McCarthy. 

But a trainer like the younger 

Purdon could easily become 

a go-to man for New Zealand 

owners wanting to campaign 

in Australia, especially as many 

Kiwis like their horses to go to a 

fellow countrymen. 

One of those options has been 

Anthony Butt, who has just 

moved back from New South 

Wales to Victoria, and while he 

takes outside horses much of his 

training is quite rightly based 

around Emilio and Mary Rosati’s 

horses as his major owners. 

But Nathan would have the advantage 

of arriving without the 

commitments of a large stable 

so could be able to tailor raids 

to New South Wales or even 

Queensland. 

“I am really open to that sort 

of thing and I might even spend 

a few week helping out with 

dad’s horses when they campaign 

in Sydney. 

“But it is an exciting time.” 

Purdon will of course miss many 

of the stars he has helped train 

with the Dalgetys but warns the 

best is yet to come from exceptional 

three-year-old Krug. 

“He came to the end of it in 

the Sires’ Stakes at Addington 

and probably even before,” he 

admits. 

“But he is in the paddock now 

and will miss the Sales Series 

in Auckland and I am certain 

this break will be the making of 

him.” 

Purdon’s partner junior driver 

Mikayla Lewis will also join him 

in Australia and work alongside 

him as well as run the business 

side of the operation.

Darfield’s Jesse Frew scored 73 runs in his team’s win over previous frontrunners 

Weedons which allowed Leeston-Southbridge to jump to the top of 

the table. 

Win puts Leeston-Southbridge at top of table 

LEESTON-Southbridge jumped 

to the top of the country cricket 

standings with a comprehensive 

eight-wicket demolition of 

Ohoka on Saturday. 

The combined side’s victory 

sees them leapfrog Weedons – 

who suffered a hefty 79-run loss 

to Darfield – and lead the CRV 

Ambreed country premier one 

day 2020/21 competition. 

At Leeston Park, the home side 

chose to bowl first and immediately 

rolled through Ohoka’s top 

order. 

Sam Chamberlain and Tom 

Burt did the damage at the 

top, hitting good areas and 

grabbing four wickets between 

them – Burt bowling a close 

to unplayable delivery to 

remove the dangerous Will 

Hamilton. 

But it was a total team bowling 

and fielding effort – creating two 

run outs – to dismiss an Ohoka 

side missing a few key players to 

injury for a paltry 93 in 35 overs. 

Only Harry Fitzpatrick offered 

any resistance and was left 

stranded on 40 not out off 86 

balls. 

After losing Rupert Young for 

a duck in the first over after a 

peach from Austin Hamilton, 

Leeston-Southbridge knocked 

off the win inside 15 overs, with 

Canterbury Country star Harry 

Chamberlain smashing 45 off 31 

balls, and Country development 

coaches Toby Doyle (15 not out) 

and ex-Holland international

Darfield’s powerful top-order 

set up a commanding win to 

knock Weedons off the top perch 

on their home soil. 

Liam Foulkes (26 runs off 52 

balls) and Nick Jenkins (33 off 

45) put on a 63-run opening 

stand, before Jesse Frew (73 off 

87) and Canterbury Kings star 

Henry Shipley (52 off 56) put on 

109 for the third wicket and set 

up a fine first innings total of

Liam Foulkes scored 26 before being clean-bowled. 

Weedons’ reply stuttered to 

17/2, with all-rounder Frew 

again in the action to remove the 

openers, and the run chase never 

recovered. 

James Richards again showed 

his class, top-scoring with an unbeaten 

59, but aside from keeperbatsman 

James Watson (26), he 

got little help and they were all 

out for 143 in the 39 th over. 

Crisis-hit Southbrook – winless 

since the opening round 

back on October 3 – defaulted 

against fellow strugglers Lincoln 

after being unable to find enough 

available players. 

In the other game, Sefton beat 

Cheviot by seven wickets while 

Oxford-Rangiora Vikings had 

the bye.

SELWYN RURAL LIFE 

Boom-town growth tests farm priorities 

High-class soils must be protected, 

Federated Farmers says as Selwyn’s urban 

growth continues to surge. 

Land around Rolleston continues to be 

sold for housing and industry, expanding 

the town at breakneck speed. The town 

had 17,500 residents as of the last census 

and the number is predicted to climb to 

24,000 by 2040. 

Selwyn district has 

consistently been one 

of the fastest-growing 

areas in New Zealand 

over the past decade 

and is now the third 

most populated 

district in the South 

Island. 

Selwyn district has consistently been 

one of the fastest-growing areas in New 

Zealand over the past decade and is 

now the third most populated district 

in the South Island. The district’s strong 

population and economic growth is 

projected to continue for many years yet. 

Meantime Selwyn District Council 

(SDC) is consulting on its district plan, 

which it expects to be in full effect by the 

end of 2022. 

In a summary of its proposed plan, SDC 

says: “Apart from some minor rezoning 

in Leeston and Rolleston, the council 

has made the decision not to investigate 

rezoning new ‘greenfield’ residential or 

business areas in the district through the 

District Plan Review process”. 

In relation to the Ellesmere and Malvern 

Wards, SDC’s decision was based 

around “balancing projected demand 

for residential and business land and the 

existing capacity of townships to cater for 

this demand”. 

Overall, the council was not proposing 

any residential zoning changes, “except 

for lifting the deferral of some land in 

Darfield and Leeston, which is currently 

treated as rural land but is to become 

residential zoned land in the Proposed 

District Plan”. 

SDC considered there was enough land 

at the moment to cater for projected 

population growth. 

The pros and cons of urban plans and 

policy statements continue to divide 

farmers, who may, or may not, want 

residential growth to continue. For some, 

urban expansion is a threat to precious 

hectares. For others, city and town sprawl 

represents a potential property windfall. 

In a submission to the urban 

development NPS, Federated Farmers 

said its membership encompassed a 

broad range of persons and interests, 

“depending on their own personal views 

and future intentions to develop their 

own land”. With this in mind, Federated 

Farmers submission focused “solely on 

key issues that are generally accepted by 

our membership”. 

The lobby group said Federated 

Farmers generally supported the urban 

development policy statement but wanted 

urban development to be clearly defined. 

It could not include un-serviced large lot 

residential subdivision on the fringe of a 

city or town that resulted in inefficient use 

of the land resource and land use conflict. 

An urban development NPS must also 

recognize the importance of maintaining 

high class soils for primary production for 

future generations and protecting “high 

class soils from inappropriate subdivision, 

use and development”. 

“A further concern our members face is 

the expansion of the peri-urban boundary 

into land used for primary production and 

commercial activities associated with the 

primary sector. Reverse sensitivity issues 

such as odour, aural or visual amenity 

concerns have the potential to affect the 

viability of some rural-based businesses. 

We seek greater controls be applied to 

the NPS-UD [urban development] with 

respect to controlling reverse sensitivity 

risk. It is Federated Farmers’ experience 

that reverse sensitivity issues inevitably 

arise when urban uses of land displace 

rural uses of that same land,” Federated 

Farmers’ submission said.

SELWYN RURAL LIFE 


Farmer-led group nets environment cash 

A Selwyn catchment group is set to net just 

over $2m for environmental improvements 

on more than 60 properties in the district. 

The government funding is going to 

the Tinaku Project, led by the farmerled 

Ellesmere Sustainable Agriculture 

Incorporated. The group has 100 members 

and aims to improve water health, mahinga 

kai and cultural values. 

The $2.2m from the Ministry for Primary 

Industries (MPI) will pay for four and eight 

full-time equivalent staff working with 

landowners across 46,000ha. The activity 

will include fencing and planting to protect 

streams, drains and wetlands, as well as pest 

control and improved biodiversity. 

The Tinaku Project reaped about a third 

of the Jobs for Nature funding announced 

by Agriculture Minister Damien O’Connor 

this month. Four farmer-led catchment 

groups in Canterbury and Otago were given 

between $176,000 and $2.3 million over 

the next three years to fund environmental 

improvement work across dozens of sites in 

their regions. 

The Jobs for Nature projects include, 

North Otago Sustainable Land Management 

Riparian Project – $362,000; Lindis River 

project, Otago – $772,000 and Pomahaka 

Wetland Restoration project, South Otago – 

$176,000 

O’Connor said most of the initiatives were 

being led by established catchment groups 

with hundreds of farmer members. The 

work would involve fencing and planting 

around water bodies, clearing of unsuitable 

trees, and pest control. 

Overall, Jobs for Nature could employ 

between 15 and 20 people as well as 

specialist contractors over that period. 

O’Connor said producing food and fibre 

for the world with strong environmental 

credentials would create more value for our 

products and would help New Zealand’s 

economic recovery from Covid-19. 

It was important that the Jobs for Nature 

projects were led by farmers and the 

community, O’Connor said. 

“Farmers working directly with each other 

through local catchment groups means 

they can develop and share their knowledge 

about what works for them and provide a 

connected network for support and advice. 

Through Jobs for Nature projects they can 

start to make a difference that will be seen 

in years to come.” 

Canterbury Employers’ Chamber of 

Commerce Chief Executive Leeann Watson 

says the Jobs for Nature funding for 

Canterbury and elsewhere was recognition 

of the significant work undertaken by the 

rural sector. Most farmers were focused 

on improving and protecting their land 

for future generations and many had been 

early adopters of environment management 

plans for the last seven or eight years, she 

said. “Environmental stewardship is also 

an important area in terms of securing 

market access for food and fibre, so this 

funding will play a role in helping to boost 

our agriculture exports - a key economic 

driver for the region, which was particularly 

evident through Covid”. 

The funding also showed that 

sustainability had not been overlooked in 

the Covid environment. 

Preserving the health of rivers, wetlands, 

and habitat biodiversity has always 

been a key issue for the region, “so we 

are encouraged to see the Government 

addressing this challenging issue in 

partnership with the farming sector and 

hope that it is a signal for the Government’s 

approach to accompanying sector 

regulations and other sustainability issues,” 

Watson said. 

A further $2.9m of government funding 

would help about 300 Hurunui farmers 

work towards improving the health of their 

land and water through applying farm 

environment planning and sustainable land 

management practices.

GARDENING 

SOME OF the easiest plants to 

grow are herbs and flowers. 

Getting to know these 

garden staples is also a great 

way to learn about the basics of 

gardening. 

Step 1: Mint 

To grow it well and noninvasively, 

always plant mint in a 

big pot in quality media (potting 

mix) with a few water crystals to 

help keep the plant moist (not 

waterlogged) and make sure 

it gets a little shade during the 

hottest part of the day. 

Step 2: Which herbs go 

with mint? 

Plant parsley and coriander in 

the same pot as mint, because 

these herbs love moist soil too. 

Make sure you give each plant 

plenty of room to expand as they 

grow. 

Step 3: Which herbs like 

drier soil? 


Herbs and flowers are the easiest to grow 

AS WE move through 

summer, keep the garden 

looking fresh for your outdoor 

enjoyment. 

1. Conserve water 

– While we may not reach 

Australian levels of urgency 

about water shortages, the ecomessages 

are just going to get 

tougher from now on. Take a 

good look at how you use water 

in your garden and make some 

plans. Whatever your method, 

Thyme (common, pizza, 

lemon), rosemary and 

fragrant oregano, prefer being 

more dry than moist and love 

soaking in all day sun. They 

prefer less nitrogen so they can 

be sparing with the frequency 

of watering: established plants 

need only 30min of water once 

or twice a week, vegetables 

more. 

2. Mulch to save 

work – Mulch is the instant 

makeover. It suppresses weeds, 

makes a tired garden look 

fresh and slows water 

evaporation. 

But only apply it once the soil 

is good and wet, as otherwise it 

develop their fragrant oils. 

Step 4: Basil the loner 

Basil (common, purple, thai, 

giant, tiny leafed) needs a little 

more care to produce a good 

harvest. Grow it in a big pot that 

can be moved around to catch 

the sunshine and remove it from 

windy conditions. Do not water 

basil plants directly on the leaves 

or the soil as the dampness may 

attract fungal disease. 

Step 5: Add coriander 

It’s easy as long as you plant 

the seeds just below the surface 

and right where you want them 

to grow in your garden. To slow 

down the ‘bolting’ of coriander 

harvest it often. 

will not help your plants. 

3. Plant locally – Native 

plants (from your part of the 

country) are perfectly adapted 

to your local sun, rain and wind 

conditions, so they look after 

themselves. 

4. Mow lightly – In the 

summer lawns do best when 

the grass is longer (about 25- 

30mm). 

The soil and roots are shaded 

Step 6: Easy flower 

growing 

To start an easy 

Christmas flower garden, 

cultivate a small space or 

garden edge and turn some 

heat-treated sheep pellets into 

the soil. 

Then grab a mix of marigold 

and cornflower seeds and throw 

them across the garden. Place 

a thin layer of soil on top and 

water them in. 

Step 7: Buy seedlings 

Now buy some flower 

seedlings of your choice and 

place them at regular (or 

irregular) spaces throughout the 

growing space. Make sure you 

water the garden daily. 

Keep your garden fresh during warm weather 

MOIST: Use water sparingly to 

avoid shortages. 

TASTE: Mint can be grown in the garden or in a container. 

so the lawn does not get sunburnt 

and more moisture is retained. 

If you can, leave clippings on 

the lawn to help conserve soil 

moisture and feed it. 

5. Add water – There is 

nothing like water to enhance 

a garden. 

While a full-scale water 

feature can get expensive, 

garden centres now sell small 

plug-and-go bubbling water 

bowls.

GARDENING 35 

Put a plan in place for holiday season 

SUMMER IS here. It’s a hugely 

busy time in the garden with 

vigorous growth on most plants, 

harvesting of early maturing 

summer vegetables and preparing 

the garden if you are planning on 

heading away. 

Vege garden 

Summer salad vegetables will 

be maturing mid/late December. 

Regularly apply side dressings of 

fertiliser to enhance the growth of 

these plants. With quick maturing 

crops such as radishes, dwarf 

beans and lettuce, use succession 

planting (every two to three 

weeks) to avoid them all maturing 

at the same time and ensuring 

you have a constant supply. 

Plan you watering or irrigation 

programme to encourage strong 

plant growth while avoiding 

wasting any water. Apply mulch 

to reduce water loss and help prevent 

weed growth. Early planted 

potatoes should be ready to be 

harvested for Christmas Day. 

Continue to remove the lateral 

growth on your tomato plants 

until they reach around 1m, and 

tie up to stakes at regular points 

(every 100–150mm). 

Summer flowers 

With little effort, summer 

annuals can provide masses of 

colour and beauty in the garden 

MAINTENANCE: December is a good time to deadhead 

your roses and encourage more blooms. 

or containers. Summer flowers 

include; ageratum, cornflower, 

cosmos, marigolds, petunias, 

portulacas, salvias, strawflowers 

and zinnias. Deadhead old finished 

flowers to encourage more 

flowering. 

Fruit trees 

Early stone fruit such as plums 

start to ripen towards the end 

of the month. You may need to 

remove some excess new growth 

and thin laden bunches of 

fruit to help promote heavy cropping. 

Water newly planted fruit 

trees and mulch as soils begin to 

dry. 

Berries and strawberries 

Boysenberries, blackcurrants, 

gooseberries and raspberries can 

be harvested in late December. 

They will be developing new 

canes that should be tied down 

or removed when there is 

excessive growth. 

It’s a great month for harvesting 

strawberries. Protect plants with 

bird netting so they don’t eat the 

fruit before you do. 

Place pea straw or crushed bark 

around plants so fruit are sitting 

on a ‘clean bed’. Water as required 

and with the minimum of maintenance 

you should be harvesting 

delicious, juicy strawberries well 

into January. 

Roses 

It’s an excellent month for rose 

before the difficult months of 

January and February. It’s important 

to continue to deadhead 

finished flowers to encourage 

more blooms. 

Apply regular side dressings of 

rose fertiliser to encourage strong 

healthy growth. Carry out summer 

pruning to promote further 

flowering. Inspect your roses 

regularly for signs of blackspot 

and rust and instigate a regular 

spraying programme to control 

these diseases. 

Lawns 

Depending on specific summer 

weather conditions, lawns 

should either be in peak condition 

or beginning to dry out. 

Avoid mowing too low over hot 

summer months and do not apply 

fertiliser. 

If water supply allows, irrigate 

lawns in the cooler parts of the 

day. If you have bare patches 

appearing, you will need to be 

patient and wait until autumn before 

carrying out any repair work. 

Preparing the garden for 

summer holidays 

Because we traditionally 

holiday in the Christmas/January 

period, “deserting” the garden at 

this time can lead to problems. 

It’s better to plan ahead and be 

prepared. 

Avoid problems by not having 

your vegetable crops maturing 

during this time, applying a good 

layer of mulch and installing a 

timer or asking a neighbour to 

water your garden while you are 

away. 

This is especially important 

with plants in containers.

BMW X6 challenges design rules 

CAR MAKERS are always 

looking for a point of difference 

in their designs. 

A good example of that is 

BMW’s X6 sport utility vehicle. 

Well such is its style it doesn’t really 

fit the SUV mould, its coupetype 

rear quarter tapers markedly 

to provide a fast-back look, one 

which is distinctive and eyecatching. 

If you add in genuine 

bulk – the X6 is big – then you 

have a bold, brash SUV that has a 

polarising style. 

Most of the people who I talked 

about it liked it, but then there 

were others who said it was a bit 

over the top and unnecessarily 

complicated as a design, especially 

up front where an angular, 

illuminated grille commands 

attention. 

The X6 has always been 

controversial, when it was first 

launched it had only four seats 

which seemed a bit of a waste in 

such a big car. However, BMW 

has addressed that, it has been a 

five-seater for several years now. 

The X6 lands here with three 

engine options; well, two are pretty 

much the same design, a 3-litre 

six-cylinder diesel with two different 

power outputs, but for those 

who like to stick with a high-performance 

petrol engine, the M50i 

is V8-powered. All have BMW’s 

xDrive four-wheel-drive system. 

The two diesels have nomenclatures 

of 30d and 50d respectively. 

This evaluation surrounds the 

entry-level model which lists at 

$149,400, the 50d and M50i are 

both priced at $187,100. 

Given its stature, the X6 has a 

plush, spacious interior, and for 

those onboard you are cocooned 

in the lap of luxury, and there is 

an abundance of trim details that 

will provide a pleasurable travelling 

experience for all occupants. 

The driver also gets a wealth of 

functions and controls, many of 

which are voice activated while, 

of course, the X6 has the benefit 

of a multitude of safety systems 

incorporated into the vehicle. 

Up front sits the big diesel, it 

has massive power outputs even 

in what is considered low-power 

form. BMW claims 195kW and 

620Nm, if that is not enough 

grunt for you the 50d adds 99kW 

and 140Nm. For me, though, the 

30d has enough to satisfy. Power 

is sufficient enough to claim a 

6.5sec time to reach 100km/h. 

That’s not bad for a tubby vehicle 

which weighs just over twotonne. 

The engine is strong and wilful, 

it is grunty under load and in a 

subdued way it lets you know it is 

enjoying its work. It throbs away 

and is free-revving in its nature, 

hauling to the 5000rpm redline 

willingly, and that is unusual for 

a big diesel. Not that there is any 

real need to explore high revolutions, 

diesels of this type have 

mammoth mid-range torque, and 

for that matter, the X6 is an absolute 

dynamo during a highway 

overtake. Such is the acceleration 

BMW X6 30d: Sports sedan feel with notable power/handling balance. 

you need to keep a close watch on 

the speedometer, the X6 charges 

to dizzy speeds with little effort 

and little sensation of speed. 

It also seems unfathomable 

that you can have this huge 

charge of energy from under the 

bonnet and still achieve remarkable 

fuel usage economy. BMW 

also claims a 7.1-litre per 100km 

combined cycle average. On my 

long highway run the readout was 

listing a 5.2l/100km instantaneous 

figure at 100km, the engine 

almost idling at just 1350rpm. 

That contributed to an overall 

9l/100km figure when I had finished 

evaluating. 

Overall, that’s perfectly acceptable, 

and figures that will continually 

surprise the X6 buyer, you 

can have huge impetus without 

needlessly scoffing fuel. 

The engine drives to all four 

corners through an eight-speed 

• Price – BMW X6 30d, 

$149,400 

• Dimensions – Length, 

4941mm; width, 2019mm; 

height, 1693mm 

• Configuration – Sixcylinder, 

four-wheel-drive, 

2993cc, 195kW, 620Nm, 

eight-speed automatic. 

• Performance –

• Fuel usage – 7.1l/100km 

automatic transmission. It is a 

sequential shifting type with 

paddles attached to the steering 

wheel should the driver desire 

to take control of the gearshift 

process. Left to its own devices 

the gearbox works the torque pattern 

of the engine well, upshifting 

early to minimise fuel usage. 

Perhaps the biggest surprise 

of all with the X6 is that of its 

ELEGANT: Coupe-type rear quarter characterises the BMW X6. An elegant and plush interior pampers the occupants. 

handling. I’ve mentioned it is a 

big car and you’d expect there 

to be limitations when twisty 

backroads are encountered. That’s 

far from the reality, the X6 belies 

its bulk, it feels tightly connected 

with the road and it is remarkably 

agile. A lot of that can be attributed 

to the massive 22in Continental 

tyres which have amazing 

sidewall flexibility along with 

unyielding grip. 

Steerage is informative and 

the entire vehicle is balanced 

over the suspension. Of course, 

you are paying a premium price 

for the X6 and you’d expect all 

the ducks to be in row, but the 

power/handling balance of the 

X6 is something quite extraordinary, 

it feels like a sports sedan, 

it is something quite special 

when the never ending mixture 

of New Zealand’s road types are 

presented. 

The X6 is a complicated car to 

describe. For one it is the quintessential 

family wagon, it is also a 

recreational model which would 

be at home on the Mt Hutt skifield 

access road, and it is a performance 

SUV that is very wilful 

with its high power outputs. 

For my money the ‘baby’ of the 

series would win out. As much 

as I like big V8 petrol engines, 

the 3-litre diesel charms with its 

honesty and economy; however, 

deciding between the 30d 

and 50d is another conundrum 

altogether. 

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.

can be a roller coaster, which is why 

finding a licensed real estate agent you feel 

comfortable with is so important. 

“Remember, you’re looking for the 

person who you’re going to trust to sell 

what’s likely to be your biggest asset. Their 

success (or failure) will have a marked 

impact on your new life plan,” says the 

Real Estate Authority (REA). 

New Zealand has about 15,000 real 

estate agents who help people navigate 

big-deal transactions every day. 

“The trick is to find the one that will be 

best for your situation,” he says. 

If you’re going to get the best out of your 

real estate agent – and they’re going to get 

the best price and conditions for your 

property – then you need 

to put the work in before 

you sign with anyone. That 

means basing your decision 

on more than gut feel or the 

fact that their office was easy 

to park outside. 

You need someone who 

understands what it takes 

to sell a property like yours 

and a proven track record to 

show for it. You also need 

to feel comfortable with 

them personally – if 

you don’t find them 

pleasant to deal 

with then buyers 

may not enjoy 

the experience either. 

If you’re not sure how to get the ball 

rolling, ask the agent the following 

questions: 

- What do you know about my 

neighbourhood? How are sales in this area 

and who is buying? 

- Do you work independently or with 

other agents? 

- What kind of advertising or marketing 

do you use – and which ones will work for 

my property? What extra marketing costs 

will I have to pay? 

- What are your commission rates? Are 

you open to negotiation? 

- Do you have testimonials or references 

from people whose properties you have 

sold in the last three months? 

- What do you recommend I do to 

prepare my home for sale? 

- Why should I hire you? 

Asking these questions helps you 

form a picture of the agent’s experience, 

knowledge and how they structure their 

business. 

These days you’d expect an agent’s 

marketing plan to have an online focus 

that includes major property websites and 

social media. Find out what the marketing 

plan will cost and ask them to explain 

their rationale – you’re the one paying for 

this service, after all. 

Remember that you can negotiate on 

the marketing costs and commission – 

don’t be afraid to ask the agents if they 

are interested in an incentive-based 

commission, where they will earn more 

commission if they sell your property 

above a certain price. 

Once you’ve found the agent you think 

you’d like to work with, check them out 

on the Real Estate Authority’s (REA) 

online public register, which will tell you 

if the agent holds a current licence. This is 

important because it’s illegal to carry out 

real estate agency work without a licence 

and if you deal with an unlicensed person 

the REA will be unable to help you if 

things go wrong. 

When you’ve decided on an agent, the 

terms and conditions of your contract will 

be set out in an agency agreement that 

you both sign. This is a legal document, 

so make sure you get advice from a lawyer 

and that you understand your rights and 

responsibilities.

SELLING YOUR HOME? 

Potential buyers are 

likely to be living in your 

neighbourhood, it’s an 

area that they already love 

and are actively seeking 

to stay in. That’s why it 

makes sense to advertise 

your property in the 

Selwyn Property Guide. 

We are the only media 

that reaches across the 

entire Selwyn District.

Green Homes are building 

better in Selwyn 

Anyone can build a house. But if you’re looking for 

a greener home build company that’s also affordable 

for the average Kiwi, Green Homes Christchurch will 

set you up with a warmer, drier, healthier and more 

energy efficient home. And if a more sustainable 

solution isn’t your main priority, the running cost 

efficiencies are an added bonus that will put pennies 

back in your pocket. 

Higher spec that costs less 

With five branches around NZ and expansion 

plans in the near-future, high spec homes that cost 

less to run are Green Homes’ speciality. They’re the 

only residential design and build company in NZ 

that is ISO compliant for Energy Management and 

most branches have in-house design teams that 

can customise almost anything. Plus, as a standard 

specification you’ll get perimeter edge foundation, 

extra wall and ceiling insulation, energy efficient 

appliances, WELS rated tapware, and solar power 

options that will contribute towards reducing your 

carbon footprint. 

Homestar and Lifemark options 

for improved performance and 

liveability 

Homes can be expensive to run and a huge 80% of 

floor heat can be lost through the perimeter of the 

slab of your home. Green Homes build well above 


2 

code and have high insulation standards; their process 

includes the perimeter edge of slab—which means it’ll 

be warmer than most other new homes. So, you can 

enjoy your home in comfort and not worry about how 

you’ll pay to run it. 

If you’re smart about home building, you can also 

future proof your home for safety, potential mobility 

impairments, or disability needs. Building in features 

now—like wider doors and flush entrances, customheight 

kitchens, non-slip tiles, easy-reach light 

switches—will cost very little extra now but save you 

thousands long term. 

Acland Park show home opening 

soon 

The land prices and infrastructure of Selwyn are 

boosting popularity of the area; the sheer space 

is a big drawcard for building. And according 

to testimonials, customers are loving the entire 

experience when building with the Green Homes 

team—the service, the team, their comfy new home— 

and you can too, in as little as 16 weeks. 

Their new show home in Acland Park, Rolleston 

will open early in 2021; it’ll be highly rated for 

Homestar and Lifemark certified so it’s 

worth a peek. You can also reach the team on 

0800 33 00 00 to talk through your home build 

plans, or visit greenhomesnz.co.nz 

Show homes 

the ultimate way to shop around 

Across the selwyn district, we are blessed with an 

extensive array of very good quality show homes. 

Building companies build show homes 

to demonstrate their workmanship, 

display innovative design ideas and 

present a snapshot into a new and 

luxurious lifestyle, featuring all the 

latest in materials, fittings and fixtures. 

A show home can inspire you in a way 

nothing else can. You can absorb the 

ambiance they present and admire the 

innovative techniques, new materials 

and technology. 

You can ask questions, take notes 

and compare. You can see at a glance 

features you would love to emulate or 

would avoid when building your home. 

Best of all, you ;will see the building 

companies’ attention to detail. 

Show homes are the perfect way to get 

a good idea of pricing, discover good 

quality and value, learn about superior 

use of space, future-proofing, ongoing 

maintenance and long-term returns. 

So what are you waiting for? Check 

out our maps, grab a notepad and 

pencil and begin the exciting project of 

building your own home.

Confident at Auctions 

Looking confident may be all you need to be the last 

bidder standing when the hammer goes down. 

Does your blood pressure go sky-high at 

the sight of an auction room? Chances are 

some of your fellow bidders are doing all 

in their power to psych you out and win 

the bidding. 

Securing a property isn’t just about 

having the most money. Sometimes the 

winning bidder is the one with the most 

confidence. 

They use psychology to convince 

opposing bidders to give up, hoping to 

make everyone else think they’ve got more 

to spend than anyone else in the room. 

Too often buyers have preconceived 

ideas about how the auction will unfold 

and have their confidence knocked when it 

doesn’t go their way. 

Two can play at that game. You just need 

to get your strategy right. 

Looking confident may be all you need 

to be the last bidder standing when the 

hammer goes down. 

To be that person you need to do some 

preparation. Make sure you go to a few 

auctions first to get used to them. 

Come bidding day, park yourself on 

the side at the front so that you can 

see everyone in the room and, more 

importantly, they can see you whether 

they’re at the back of the front. 

It gives you a vantage point and shows 

the opposition you are bidding confidently 

against them. 

You are hoping that the other buyers 

Show 

home 

Guide 

have a plan in place. 

Often that’s to start low. So if you come 

in with a relatively high first bid, you may 

rattle them. 

“The lower the open bid the more people 

can afford to bid. So you could knock out 

some of the opposition before they even 

place a bid if you choose the right opener. 

Don’t start at $500,000 for a house you 

know is going to go for at least $800,000. 

Put an opening bid of $785,000. 

Immediately your opposition is going to 

think it will go incredibly high and might 

be unnerved. 

Call each bid out confidently. “It shows 

you are comfortable and in control. 

The more confident you seem the more 

people will think you have done it before. 

It’s a really good idea to vary your 

bidding increments.. If it’s going up by 

$2000 bids and it’s below your limit don’t 

be afraid to put a $10,000 bid in.. 

Your competition is always thinking 

about that next $2000 bid and if you 

change the rhythm from $2000 to $10,000 

you show you have the money and it 

changes where their next bid has to be. 

Instead of $4000 more it is $12,000 more. 

Finally, if you’re a couple, make sure 

you’ve discussed every aspect of the 

auction before you get there. As soon 

as you start looking at each other or 

conferring, the opposition will think 

you’re weak.
