Flood fund 

in the 

spotlight 

The Government’s package of $500,000 to help 

floodstricken farmers in Canterburyis 

inadequate,says Waimakariri Mayor Dan Gordon. 

He has asked the Governmenttoconsiderafar 

more substantial packagetohelp those in ‘‘real’’ 

need acrossthe Canterbury region. 

Mr Gordon met withacting Ministerfor 

Emergency Management KrisFaafoi last week to 

express concerns on behalf of property ownersin 

the district followingthe flood event. 

He told Mr Faafoi when damagetoproperty in 

the Waimakariri District was put alongside 

damage in the Ashburtonand Selwyn Districts, 

the sum announcedtohelp peopleget back on 

theirfeet, was not sufficient. 

He also pointed out the package didn’t provide 

anything for lifestyle block owners affected by the 

floods, of which there are many in the 

Waimakariri District. 

‘‘Sincethe flooding Ihave talked with farmers 

and residents of Lees Valley, residentsofaffected 

flooding areasofOkuku and surrounding areas, 

and have agood understanding of theissues they 

face trying to get back on theirfeet,’’MrGordon 

says. 

In LeesValley thereare significant areasof 

fencing where the insurance cover is minimal, 

comparedtothe loss. 

‘‘I have been made awareofone casewhere the 

fencing alonewouldlikely absorbthe total 

$500,000 package.’’ 

Thereare some lifestyle propertiesinthe 

Okukuarea facingsimilarhardship having lost 

fencing and other assets which wereswept away 

by floodwaters. 

‘‘Insurance coverisminimal compared to the 

loss,especiallywhen it comes to fencing, andthey 

face considerable cost puttingitback,’’MrGordon 

says. 

Therehas also been landloss whererivers had 

changed courseand gonethrough properties. Mr 

Gordon says it is too early to know thelasting 

effect of this, but the Earthquake Commissionand 

insurance companies were unlikely to respond 

and help peopleinthese circumstances. 

‘‘Peopleare worried about their future andhow 

they can afford to getback intothe sameposition 

they were before the floods.’’

Hurunui’sheritage restored 

By ROBYN BRISTOW 

Hurunui’s heritage is in safe hands. 

Alovingly restored home near 

Culverden, and aforestry lookout 

atop arocky bluff in the Hurunui 

Hills, carried off trophies at the 

Canterbury Heritage Awards last 

week. 

Dave and Jo McKenzie from 

Montrose Station, Culverden, were 

joint winners in the Domestic Saved 

and Restored category, while the 

Hawarden Waikari Lions were joint 

winners in the public Realm Saved 

and Restored category. 

Each received aNeil Dawson 

trophy. Mr Dawson is aprominent 

New Zealand sculptor who has 

exhibited internationally, and 

crafted many fine commissioned 

works. The Lookout was equal first 

with the Christchurch Arts Centre. 

Hurunui Mayor, Marie Black, who 

helped drive the project, says this 

showed ‘‘just how amazing’’ the 

award was. 

The Domestic Saved and Restored 

Award is reward for several years of 

planning and careful negotiation of 

red tape by the McKenzies to rebuild 

their 1913 Montrose Station 

homestead, near Culverden, after the 

devastation of the 2016, 7.8 

magnitude earthquake centred on 

Waiau. 

It wrecked havoc in North 

Canterbury, Kaikoura and beyond, 

and destroyed parts of the homestead 

designed by architect Cecil Wood at a 

time when he was considered the 

leading domestic architect in 

Canterbury. The family and their 

three children have only been back in 

their home ayear, with the 

intervening time spent making 

decisions around the rebuild, how to 

manage it and meeting the Historic 

Places Trust’s criteria for the 

Category 2building.

Fireworks decision ‘responsible’ 

By SHELLEY TOPP 

AWaimakariri District councillor is 

heartened by The Warehouse’s decision 

to stop selling fireworks. 

‘‘It is the right move,’’ Paul Williams 

says. 

He now wants to see fireworks 

restricted to public displays because of 

the potential of fireworks to cause fires 

to homes and properties, and cause 

distress, pain and even death to animals. 

In 2018 Waimakariri District Council 

staff were asked to investigate whether 

it was possible to ban, or at least limit, 

the sale of fireworks in Waimakariri and 

only have public fireworks displays, 

after Cr Williams raised the issue. 

‘‘I am pleased that The Warehouse is 

acting in aresponsible way by now not 

selling this product,’’ he said. 

‘‘Other retailers now need to follow 

this action.’' 

‘‘I found that the council could not 

implement abylaw,’’ he says. 

Paul Williams 

Cr Williams says while most families 

act responsibly with their fireworks, 

others don’t. 

‘‘I had ratepayers relaying stories of 

sky rockets being let off from moving 

cars aimed at houses. 

‘‘My father was avolunteer fireman 

and Ialso saw the strain this put on our 

already very busy fire service.’' 

Cr Williams says he has support from 

the SPCA and other groups to stop the 

sale of fireworks to the public. 

‘‘However Isupport public displays 

that are displayed in asafe way in which 

people can get the information required 

to keep their pets safe and the fire 

service can have asay on the 

conditions.’’ 

The Warehouse chief product officer 

Tania Benyon said when making the 

announcement about the decision to end 

the sale of fireworks, that it came after 

feedback from customers. 

‘‘While many are supportive of public 

fireworks displays to mark special 

events across the year, Guy Fawkes has 

become less of an occasion, and there 

are clear concerns about people letting 

off fireworks at home. 

‘‘In line with that response we no 

longer feel fireworks have aplace on our 

shelves.’' 

Home and lookout preserve Hurunui history 

From Page 1 

‘‘All plans had to go throughthem(the 

Historic Places Trust), for approval 

which added another six months to 

rebuild. 

‘‘Meanwhile we lived in the90 

square metre shearers quarters, 

compared to our 600 square metre 

house,’’ saysJo. 

Someparts of the home were 

repaired, some demolished and then 

rebuilt. 

The architects for the project, 

Wilson andHill, ensured much of the 

original timberand brick construction 

was retained, with many original 

features skilfully reintegrated. 

Jo saysitisahuge thrill to be back in 

their home. 

The Hawarden Waikari LionsClub 

led project restoringthe Balmoral 

Forestry Lookouthas helped preserve 

arare example of afire lookoutinNew 

Zealand, whichhold aplaceinhistory 

alongside lighthouses. 

Local builder Matthew Newton 

breathed new life into the lookout,and 

aplains tableidentifies the peaks that 

can be viewed from it. 

There is alsoinformationonpanels 

inside the building tellingthe storyof 

the lookout, and the people who kept 

the Balmoral forest safe. 

Hurunui Mayor ,MarieBlack, who 

was raised on the family farm that 

surroundedthe lookout, saysthe 

project became acollaboration 

betweencommunity groups, with the 

AmberleyLions also coming on board 

withadonation for seats, so people 

can take abreather during the 40

andKaikoura

Personal journey ignites passion 

By DAVID HILL 

Following her family’s legacy led to a 

Queen’s Birthday Honour for Kaikoura’s 

Gina Solomon. 

Ms Solomon was made aMember of 

the New Zealand Order of Merit (MNZM) 

for services to conservation and 

governance. 

‘‘I was pretty blown away by it. You 

don’t expect those things to happen and 

then it does. 

‘‘I’ve been involved in anumber of 

different committees over the years in 

that conservation and environment 

space and I’ve had some wonderful 

opportunities to go to some great places 

and meet some great people.’’ 

Growing up at Oaro, south of 

Kaikoura, she gained apassion for 

conservation, following afamily legacy. 

‘‘My father fished with my grandfather 

and that’s where my grandmother’s 

people are from, so it’s been apersonal 

journey of trying to carryon their good 

work to ensure it continues to feed us. 

‘‘I don’t fish myself, but it’s about 

looking after that place for the next 

generation and the one after that.’’ 

After living and working in 

Wellington, Ms Solomon returned home 

to Kaikoura in 1993 and was keen to 

reconnect with her iwi. 

She was appointed secretary of the 

local Kaikoura runanga and began 

tagging along with her mother, Darcia 

Solomon, to various hui, including the 

Nelson Marlborough Conservation 

Board. 

Her mother had replaced her uncle as 

the Ngai Tahu representative on the 

Queen’s Birthday honour ... Gina 

Solomon was surprised to be awarded an 

MNZM. 


conservation board ‘‘and she wanted me 

to take her place one day’’. 

‘‘I tagged along with her to various hui 

over the years and Iended up being her 

driver and then Igot thrown in the deep 

end, so Idid my best to try to swim. 

‘‘I’ve been very lucky at having good 

people around me, including close 

family and friends who have given me 

advice so it’s not just recognition for me. 

‘‘You don’t really do anything without 

the people who stand with you.’’ 

Ms Solomon has served 14 years on the 

conservation board and as chairperson 

since 2017, but will step down later this 

month. 

She continues to be involved in Te 

Korowai oTeTai oMarokura as 

secretary and administrator and is a 

Kaikoura Marine Guardian. 

Te Korowai was instrumental in 

advocating for the establishment of 

Kaikoura’s marine protection 

legislation, while the guardians were 

established to monitor the marine 

reserve. 

Her passion for conservation has also 

led to involvement in the QEII National 

Trust Board, the Nature Heritage Fund, 

the Molesworth Steering Committee, the 

Forestry Ministerial Advisory Group, 

the Hutton’s Shearwater Charitable 

Trust and the Kaikoura Zone 

Committee. 

‘‘I really enjoyed my time on the QEII 

trust. Ihad the opportunity to share my 

iwi values. Being the only Maori on the 

trust board at the time, it was important 

to share that. 

‘‘I got to go all round New Zealand and 

see what people are doing. Iwent to 

some special places and Igot to hold a 

kiwi and agiant weta and had all sorts of 

wonderful experiences that you don’t 

always get to see. I’ve been very, very 

lucky.’’

BayleysRangiora real estate agentGeorge 

Black was backatwork withblistered feet

$20,000for theNorthCanterbury Rural

George ran 100 kilometres,from The 

Peaks, in Hawarden, to Christchurch,in 

his gumbootsonThursdaylast week to 

supportthe trust’s work. 

‘‘I grew up on aNorth Canterbury farm 

and understand that farming can be 

extremely toughattimes,’’ he said. ‘‘The 

suiciderate for farmers is 1.5 times the 

New Zealand average so theyneed all the 

supportwecan give them.’’ 

The run took George 12 hours and 15 

minutestocomplete. 

‘‘I am stokedabout the money we raised 

which was more than double what Ihoped 

for. Iamreallygrateful to all the people 

who supported me and madedonations,’’ 

he said. ‘‘I had alot of support and it 

worked out really well.’’ 

The North Canterbury Rural Support

the trust. 

‘‘What aremarkable young man he is. 

We were at the finish line along with his 

colleagues to cheer him in and the feeling 

was one of sheer amazement that he was 

stillsmiling at the end of his challenge. 

‘‘We would liketothank hismum and 

the rest of his support crew for the role 

they playedtoo. Iamsure he would agree 

he would not have beenable to do it 

without them.’’ The money raisedwill go 

towards helpingthe trustprovide 

additionalwellbeing support to the

Ice life. .. Kaiapoi photographer and filmmaker Anthony Powell in Antarctica, the subject of his multiaward winning film Antarctica: A 

Year on Ice which will be screened at the Rangiora Town Hall cinemas this August. 


Frozen continent, raw and pristine 


AKaiapoi photographer and film 

maker’s multiawardwinning 

documentary Antarctica: AYear on Ice, 

is to be screened in Rangiora. 

Anthony Powell's film had its world 

premiere at the New Zealand 

International Film Festival in 

Christchurch during July 2013. 

But renewed interest in it, and 

interest from school principals, means it 

will screen in Rangiora later this year. 

Anthony made his first trip to 

Antarctica in 1997 and has now spent 

about 10 years, off and on, on the Earth’s 

southernmost continent. 

‘‘It took afew years of experimenting 

with cameras to get things that would 

actually work in the cold of winter, then 

afew more to build up the footage,’’ he 

said. 

‘‘I had not seen anything that Ithought 

really captured the experience from the 

point of view of the everyday worker, or 

what it is like to spend the winter there 

isolated from the rest of the world, so 

once Ihad most of the scenery shots, I 

concentrated on filming that story for a 

couple of years.’’ 

Curiosity, and asense of adventure, 

made him want to visit the frozen 

continent. 

‘‘I wanted to shake things up abit from 

my usual job.’’ 

Originally he worked as 

telecommunications worker, looking 

after the phone, radios, satellite gear 

and other electronics. ‘‘Now Iwork as a 

fulltime documentarian, filmmaker, 

photographer, and multimedia 

creator.’’ 

The cleanness, untouched by humans, 

is the thing he finds most extraordinary 

about Antarctica. 

‘‘Anywhere else in the world, even in 

national parks, way off the beaten track, 

you still see signs of human activity,’’ he 

said. 

‘‘Once you get away from the bases in 

Antarctica it is still raw and pristine.’’ 

Anthony has seen ashift in culture 

towards putting alot more effort into 

making sure Antarctica remains as 

clean, and as untouched as possible. 

‘‘But also the effects of climate change 

are becoming more and more apparent,’’ 

he says. 

The owner of Rangiora Town Hall 

Cinemas, Jeremy Stewart, is offering a 

discounted ticket price for school 

groups to the film on Monday, August 30, 

Tuesday August 31 and Wednesday 

September 1, all starting at 10am. 

Anthony will do aQ&A session after 

the film at each screening.

For thenextthree years theNorth

Funding nets results 

Funding from Fonterra is supporting the 

protection and enhancement of one of the 

lastremaining coastal bush scarp wetlands 

in the South Island. 

The Hailes family farm just north of 

Kaikoura boasts uninterruptedviewsofthe 

SeawardKaikoura Ranges on one side, and 

on the other, vast ocean. 

Castyour eyesdownwardand nestled at 

the bottomoftheirdriveway is one of 

Canterbury’s best examples of acoastal 

bushscarp wetland, and one of the last 

remaining in the South Island. 

The farm is home to the Hapuku Scarp 

wetland, totaling more than10hectares. 

It is the largestremaining freshwater 

palustrine wetland (fed by rain, 

groundwater,orsurface water) in the area 

and hosts someofNew Zealand’s 

southernmost tawa and black maire trees. 

Neighbour Richard Howard sharesthe 

wetland and wasalso quick to recognise its 

significance, fencinghis part of the wetland 

manyyears ago. 

Bothlandowners havebeen proactive in 

protecting the wetlands and overland flows 

intothe wetland,fencing off several 

overland flow paths and critical source 

areas. Asignificantcontribution from the 

Fonterra Sustainable Catchment Fund has 

ensuredthe wetland is protected from 

stock. 

Thishas enabled theHailes, who 

specialise in dairy,deer and tourism, to 

increase fence setbacks(the distance 

between the waterwayand the fence) to the 

wetland, and upgrade fencing on the scarp 

to make it more resilient to floodsand 

heavy rain. 

Bernard Hailes saysthe funding from 

Fonterra has enabled them to completely 

fence the last long stretch of their wetland, 

helpingtoprotect the natural taonga. 

‘‘The fencing means the natural beautyof 

the wetland will be fullyprotectedand it

future. 

Using what we know about our infrastructure, and taking on board 

what our community is tellingus, we have identified anumber of 

priority areas that we want to focus on. If all of theproposals 

in the LTP go ahead, it would mean an annual average rates 

increase over ten years of 3.4%. (5.2% this year)

1-ROADS 

Spend $4.997 million on road reseals and renewals 

to address abacklog - mostly inrural areas.

Bite-sizedslicesoffarming life in NC 

By DAVID HILL 

Five North Canterbury rural businesses 

feature in anew book. 

Launched at the West Eyreton Hall on 

Friday evening, Waimakariribased 

rural journalist Tim Fulton’s new book, 

Kiwi Farmers’ Guide to Life,features 25 

‘‘bitesized’’ chapters telling the stories 

of New Zealand farmers and their 

families. 

‘‘I was able to cover all sorts of 

farming operation types and people 

from all over the country,’’ Tim says. 

‘‘I’ve set it out to make it chunky, with 

bitesized chapters, so it’s something 

you can pick up and just dip into the 

chapters.’’ 

He began the project last year, on the 

eve of lockdown, which caused an 

immediate rethink. 

‘‘I was just about to get going and then 

we had lockdown, so Iended up doing a 

lot of phone calls and emails to farmers 

around the country, and when I 

eventually got to go and see them, it was 

like Iwas bolting in and getting what 

information Icould, knowing Imay only 

get to visit them once.’’ 

Five North Canterbury families made 

it into the book, including Tim’s 

neighbours Alan and Margo Vliet 

Vlieland of West Eyreton. 

The couple migrated to New Zealand 

from the Netherlands in the 1990s and 

have gone on to breed Clydesdale horses 

and compete in ploughing matches with 

the Clydesdales. 

Margo fell in love with the Clydesdale 

after seeing them at the Canterbury A&P 

Show, with Alan later training as an 

equine dentist in the United States. 

Chapter one is Andy Fox of Foxdown 

at Scargill, in the Hurunui district. 

‘‘It’s the classic tale of an intergenerational 

dry land family farm,’’ Tim 

says. 

‘‘Andy is areal contributor in his 

community and he’s areally interesting 

guy. He has his own museum of vintage 

cars and classic cars, and one car had its 

origins in the Al Capone era in the 1930s. 

‘‘And he has tales of how people have 

farmed over the years.’’ 

Tracey Topp grew up in asheep 

farming family at Cust and now runs 

Cosy Toes at Rotherham selling Merino 

clothing and created the We Love NZ 

Wool social media campaign. 

The Brothers Green features in a 

chapter, telling of family ties to the 

Culverden area and the story behind 

establishing the hemp growing and 

retail business. 

Leighton and Jane Croft are sheep and 

beef farmers at Omihi, north of Waipara, 

and have hosted the Omihi Trailbike 

fundraiser for their local school on the 

farm. 

‘‘These were people Ithought Iknew, 

but now Iknow them aheck of alot 

better,’’ Tim says. 

Kiwi Farmers’ Guide to Life: Rural 

tales from the heartland by Tim Fulton 

has been published by Bateman Books 

and is on sale at bookstores for $39.99. 

Guide to life ... Anew book that has just 

hit the shelves written by local author and 

journalist Tim Fulton captures the lives of

schools in the Shichuan province of 

China. 

It has formed relationshipswith

chosen and very much appreciated 

by the school, Mr Nichollssays. 

‘‘We hope that the exchange of 

gifts and culture willnurtureareal 

interest for our students and will 

continue beyondthe current global 

situation. Our studentsare

`À variety of styles 

ranging from show music, 

swing style, traditional 

choral, carols, to a

The Covid19 lockdown 

disrupted the choir’s plans 

for 2020, but the members 

performed an informal 

concert for ‘‘Family and 

Friends’’ last December. 

``This replaced our usual 

Christmas Concert,’’ Merle 

said. 

``We also performed for 

rest homes and acommunity 

service group.'' 

This year the choir has also

`Òur ‘Friends and Family’ 

concerts have been well 

supported and thoroughly 

enjoyed,’’ Merle said. 

The choir will also perform 

aChristmas concert this year 

at the end of November. 

Since the choir resumed 

after lockdown it has 

experienced steady growth 

and now comprises agroup of 

thirtyplus singers. 

``We are afriendly,

New members are always 

welcome, especially men 

able to sing tenor or bass. 

``Please support our

Youth council wants to 

change skate park vibe 

Ayouthled project at Rangiora’s Dudley 

Park has been given the green light. 

The RangioraAshley Community 

Board has given its approval for concept 

plans to create amore communityfriendly 

space alongside the Dudley Park 

skate park. 

The project has been led by the 

Waimakariri Youth Council, which has 

been working alongside the council’s 

greenspace to look at how the park can be 

made more inclusive for more people. 

‘‘The youth council has done afantastic 

job bringing everyone’s ideas together 

and the new features will create agreat 

area for all to enjoy,’’ board chairperson 

Jim Gerard says. 

The idea was proposed by the youth 

council in response to reports of antisocial 

behaviour. 

The Waimakariri District Council set 

aside $20,000 from its 2019/20 annual 

plan. 

The board’s approval of the plan allows 

the youth council to seek external 

funding to fund its $40,000 budget. 

The first feature to be installed will be 

an ‘activation platform’, with plans to 

install mounded seating, children’s play 

equipment, apicnic table and a 

volleyball net. 

Once the project is completed, staff 

will work with the youth council to carry 

out surveys to see if the additional 

features are successful in making amore 

youth and communityfriendly space. 

Council staff are keen to see which 

features are successful so that they can 

be utilised in other public spaces across 

the district.

New exhibition saving 

art from rubbish skip 

By SHELLEYTOPP 

Anew exhibitioninRangiora’sChamber 

Gallery is saving‘incredible’ art from 

the rubbish skip. 

The Uncovering HiddenTalent 

exhibition, in Rangiora’s Chamber 

Gallery, showcases the work of 

Canterbury secondary schools’ Year 

1113 senior visualartists. 

The work is part of afree initiative 

launched in 2018 by the Creator’s Room, 

to connectsenior visual artists in 

Canterbury secondary schools with the 

community of collectors. 

One of the instigatorsofthe Creator’s 

Room, Sophie Paterson, of 

Christchurch, who established the 

onlinegallery with Charlotte Sherratt, 

of Ashburton, said incredible art work 

was created at secondary schoollevel, 

but more often than not thosestudentart 

foliosended up either in adeep, dark 

corneroftheir parents’ garage or in the 

schoolrubbish skip. 

‘‘We wanted to provide options for 

these students to showcase their work,’’ 

Sophiesaid. 

‘‘We provide upfront financial 

support, through the purchase and 

professioal framingofthe original 

artworks and fundthe reproductionof 

their limitededition prints,’’ she said. 

‘‘The artworksare then made 

available to the collectors throughour 

gallery online and annual exhibition, 

with acommission of all sales going 

directly to the artists.’’ 

The initiative overcomes anumber of 

obstacles facing students endeavouring 

to publiclyshowcase their artwork. 

‘‘Our secondary school art students 

often lack confidence, resources and 

funding to createand present theirwork 

on aprofessional level and have limited 

ways of marketing themselves and 

connecting with the widerarts 

community,’’Sophiesaid. 

The Creator’s Room also awards an 

annualscholarship of $3000 to one of the 

students taking part in the initiative, 

once they leavethe school environment, 

to help support the development of their 

artistic career. 

The scholarship winner is selected by 

an independent judging panel 

consisting of practising artists and art 

experts. 

Two former scholarship winners, 

Emma Patmore and Jack Williams have 

artwork in this exhibition. 

The UncoveringHidden Talent 

exhibition opened on Sunday and ends 

on July 8.

nothing particularly rude, therewas alot of

Whilethe lineshavechanged,Dale says 

the story stays truetothe original 

characters. 

The wellknowncharacters include the

deductibility for residential rentals is a 

hot topic for many, as is the brightline test 

being extended to 10 years, whichtargets 

gains on buying and selling property, other 

than the main home, within 10 years. 

Add to that the ring fencingofrental

lossescan notbeoffset againstother 

taxable income. 

Interest deductions on residential

27 March 2021 will not be allowedfrom1 

October 2021. Interest on loans for 

properties acquired before March27, 2021 

can stillbeclaimed as an expense. 

However, the amountable to be claimed 

will be reduced over the nextfour income 

years until it is completelyphased out. 

This meansinthe 2025–2026 and later

New top taxation rate 

Tax changesthatkicked in on April 1 

this year,see anyincome over $180,000 

taxed at anew top rate of 39 percent. 

Before April, New Zealand's tax 

thresholds saw any incomeover 

$70,000 taxed at 33 percent. Those 

earning above that amountnow, will 

only be taxed at 39 percent for dollars 

earned over $180,000. The rate only 

applies to individuals. So acouple 

could be earning $240,000 ayear with 

each personearning $120,000, but 

wouldn't be affected by the new rate.

saidthe hike was neededtokeepalid

women’s issue,’’ he says. 

‘‘I was surprised to hear how manymen 

are battlingwith low selfimage and who

unhealthy eating patterns,whichare 

putting their health at serious risk. 

‘‘As men, we’reoften told to man up.

Bull prices disappoint 

North Canterbury’s recent drought has 

taken its toll,with prices down at the first 

bull sales in the region. 

Pricesatthe annualRichon /Beechwood 

/Woodburnonfarm saleatBalcairn, near 

Amberley, and the Grassmere /Riverlands 

J/Capethorne sale heldnear Cheviot last 

Thursday were welldownonrecentyears. 

RichonHerefordstud owner Rob Stokes 

says the combination of an uncertain 

marketand the recentdroughtappear to 

have had an impact. 

‘‘I can’tnail exactly what it is, but we just 

didn’thave the underbidders on the day. 

Everyone’s bulls have come throughthe 

drought prettywell, but you just never 

know withbull sales.’’ 

‘‘It was goodlast year, but the calf market 

was also strong. Whereasit’s adifferent 

marketthis year withabit of uncertainty. 

Sheep are doingall right, but beef needs to 

pick up.’’ 

The top price for aRichonbull on the day 

was just $6000,with ‘‘a few passes’’, while 

the Burrows family’s Beechwood Hereford 

stud topped the sale with $10,000. 

Richonand Beechwood were forced to 

withdraw their Herefordcows from the 

sale after the recentflood event damaged 

roads and bridges, restricting accesstothe 

Stokesfamily’s LeesValley property,near 

Oxford. 

Selling was just as tough up the road at 

Domett, near Cheviot,with Grassmere 

Herefords selling 11 of its 16 Hereford bulls 

for an averagepriceof$6545. 

The Jeffries family toppedthe sale with 

Livestock firms join forces 

Livestockbroking firms Hazlett and Peter 

Walsh &Associates(PW&A) are joining 

forces to become abroader, South Islandwide 

operation. 

Hazlett will acquire all of PW&A’s 

operations on July 1, except for Peter 

Walsh &AssociatesFinance (PWAF), 

which Peter Walsh will retain. 

All PW&A team members have been 

offered positions and, other than everyone 

wearing the Hazlett shirts, things are 

expectedtorun as they are with no 

disruption. 

The billing systems used by both 

companies will remain as they are, and 

clients will continue to deal with the same 

people they are dealing with now. 

PW&A wasestablished nearly 20 years 

ago and has grown to provide services to 

South Island farmers. 

Succession planning by Peter and 

Karen Walsh,and the PW&A Board, 

identified Hazlettasbeingthe company 

which is closest in culture and best placed 

to build on what the team has achieved 

over the years. 

Hazlett chairman Graham Brown says 

his company and PW&A already know 

each otherwell, having jointlydeveloped 

and operatedthe Coalgate Saleyards. 

‘‘Peter has jokinglydescribed us as

Two Angus bullssold for $10,000, to Mt 

Montrose, of Culverden, and Pinaki Farm,

top priceof$11,200. 

Stud owner Greg Chamberlain says there 

were more bulls on offer than registered 

buyers on the day. 

‘friendly competitors’.But Ithink our 

shared focus on people and acommitment 

to do the best for our clients makesthis 

development more of awinwin than any 

sort of truce,’’ Grahamsays. 

‘‘The two companies have mutual 

respect for each other, we are both familyowned, 

we already work well together and 

we are going to build on that for our 

clients who will enjoy the benefitsof 

working with acompany which operates 

throughout the South Island and into the 

NorthIsland and whichprovides 

insurance, agrisupplies, funding and 

procurement services, as well as livestock 

broking.’’ 

Hazlettwas launched in 2008 as a 

livestock broking service.Since then,it 

has extended its offering to provide 

insurance, agrisupplies and funding 

solutionstobusinesses of many types, 

while remainingdeeply rootedinthe 

rural sector. 

PW&A was established in 2002 by 

livestock brokers PeterWalsh and 

Hamish Lane. At the time, the pair’s 

experienceinthe livestock industry 

totalled more than four decades and their 

working style and reputation saw the 

company grow. It now has more than 30 

livestock brokers.

Baptism of fire for new leader 

By DAVID HILL 

Caroline Amyeshas had an eventful 

first month in her new roleasafarming 

leader. 

TheFederated Farmers North 

Canterburypresident is hoping her trip 

to NationalFieldays at MysteryWeek 

this week will give her the chance to 

‘‘refocus’’ after her ‘‘baptismoffire’’ in 

respondingtothe recent flood event. 

‘‘It’s beenaninterestingfirst month. 

The Federated Farmers team has been 

awesome in the support they’ve 

provided and we’ve been working 

closely with the MidCanterbury and 

SouthCanterbury provincial presidents, 

so there’s been plentyofsupport.’’ 

Like Ms Amyes, South Canterbury 

president Greg Andersonwas only 

elected last month. 

Despite the challenges of her first 

month, she has no regrets. 

‘‘These things never happenatthe 

most convenient time,but (immediate 

past president)Cam [Henderson] and 

the restofthe exechave beenawesome. 

If the wholeexec had changedatonce it 

wouldhave beenadifferent story. 

‘‘I really like helpingpeople and 

providingsupport, so I’ve just been 

trying to do that and Ihope it’s 

beneficial.’’ 

Whilepeopletend to run on 

adrenalineinresponding to a 

significantnaturalevent, the recovery 

phasecan be more taxing on people, she 

says. 

‘‘Farmers are really good at reaching 

out and supporting each other. These 

events happen and thenitkind of falls 

out of the newscycle,but these guys are 

on theirfarms whichare still not fully 

functioningand they’re having to deal 

with it everyday.’’ 

Ms Amyes is particularly concerned 

for drylandfarmers in NorthCanterbury 

BayBlenders 

who havebeen dealing with the long 

drought and now have had winter crops 

destroyed and fences wrecked, which 

can takea‘‘massive toll’’ on finances, 

relationships and mental health. 

‘‘I want people to have the confidence 

to reach out to me for help and support. 

Even if Idon’thave the expertise, Ican 

put them on to someone else.’’

Varied career leads to NZPork 

By DAVID HILL 

Maitland Manning has made 

the switch from sheep and 

cowstopigs. 

After avariedcareer, which 

has included roles with 

DairyNZ and Beef +Lamb 

New Zealand (BLNZ), Mr 

Manning joinedNZPork as 

nationalindustrysupport 

manager based in 

Christchurch last month. 

Mr Manninggrew up on a 

sheep, beef, cropping and 

Clydesdalefarm in the 

Wairarapa, completing a 

science degree at the 

University of Canterbury. 

Since then he has workedin 

project management roles for 

DairyNZ and the former Crop 

&Food Research(now Plant 

&Food) and was aresearch 

manager at BLNZ. 

‘‘I’ve done alittle bit of 

everything.The only thingsI 

haven’t done are poultryand 

arable,’’ he says. 

‘‘While Iknow all farms are 

different, Ihave an 

appreciationthat there are 

common threads. And 

everyone who works at the 

levyfunded organisations is 

passionate about what they do 

and want to do the best for 

their levy payers.’’ 

Thatvariety of experiences 

should put Mr Manningin 

goodstead for his new role, 

which will see him work 

closely with New Zealand’s 93 

commercial pig farms to 

support them with advice on 

immigration, migrant labour,

health and safety, vocational 

education and employment. 

The role also involves 

supporting the collaboration, 

communicationand 

education across the pork 

industry ‘‘from paddock to 

plate’’. 

Mr Manning is looking 

forward to gettingout to meet 

farmers around the region 

and learning abouttheir 

challenges, so he can be a 

voicefor them. 

‘‘I’mstill gettingmyhead 

around it, but there are alot 

of uncertainties, so it’s about 

how do we helpthem and 

work with government to get 

the best outcome.’’ 

One challenge facingthe 

pork industry was competing 

against importedmeat, which 

was oftensubject to lower 

environmental, animal 

welfare and safety standards. 

NZPork has called for 

mandatory country of origin 

labellingtoassistlocal 

consumers. 

‘‘We wantconsumers to 

know they can make an 

informed choice,’’ Mr 

Manning says. 

‘‘We are here to represent 

our farmers and we are proud 

of our farmers. We are being 

held to ahigher standard and 

at the end of the day it’supto 

the consumer. 

‘‘It’s the same across any 

industry. Our farmersare 

passionate about their 

animals and they’re 

passionate about their 

product.’’ 

Sourcing qualitystaff has 

always been achallenge, 

made worse by Covid19 

border restrictions, though on 

asmaller scale comparedto 

otherindustries. 

Thereare positives and 

challengesofworking for a 

smaller industry body, Mr 

Manning says. 

‘‘In this role there’s93 

farmsinstead of thousands of 

farms. Ithinkit’s great 

because you’ve got the 

opportunity to get to know 

people and their situations. 

‘‘Butitdoes mean we’ve got 

asmaller budgetsoyou’vegot 

to be abit more nimble and 

focused.’’ 

NZPork supportsan 

industry which produces 

637,280 pigsayear, withtwothirds 

of the pigsprocessed in 

the South Island. 

Canterburyisthe country’s 

largest pig producing region, 

with Patoa Farms at Medbury,

largest in the country.

the playoff for third and fourth 

positions in the 2021 edition of 

the Luisetti Seeds Combined 

Country rugby competition. 

This equalled Kaiapoi’s 

previous best finishinthis 

competitioninthe 2010 season. 

Whilethiswas unfoldingat 

Kaiapoi,Southbridge and hosts, 

Southern werelocked in a 

thriller 120kmfurthersouth at 

Hinds. 

Southbridge made the early 

running but Southern gradually 

closed the gap and eventually, 

late in the second half, scored 

what proved to be the winning 

try to holdonfor a2218victory. 

With the competition in 

abeyancelast season courtesy 

of Covid19, Southern had 

shared the spoils with 

GlenmarkCheviot in 2019,soit 

can claim to be the most 

consistent team of the lastfew 

seasons. 

Kaiapoi v 

Prebbleton 

At Kaiapoi, both teamschoseto 

rest anumberoftheirregular 

starters but there was no lack of 

intensity. 

Kaiapoi unveiled yet another 

frontrower of truequality with 

youngster Henry Bogitini 

impressing in aconvincingspell 

at looseheadprop. 

This week it was his turnto 

anchorastrong scrum which 

kept Kaiapoi in the game 

despite Prebbleton havinga 

distinct territorial advantagein 

the first half. 

Despite that Kaiapoi scored 

the first two tries of the match, 

ten minuteseither side of halftime, 

with lock Nacanieli 

Namatainstrumental in both 

tries. 

In the first he offloaded to his 

locking partner Connor Smith, 

while he scored the second 

himself after selling one of his 

trademarkdummies. 

At this point Kaiapoi had a 

comfortable buffer and it was 

late in the matchbefore

try. 

Kaiapoi’s defensiveeffort was 

particularly laudable and a 

major factor in restricting 

Prebbleton’s scoring. 

Loose forwards JarrodSmith 

and Jarred Gilmore took the 

leadand, though short in 

stature, neverstopped running 

and never shirkedthe tackle, 

serving their side superbly and 

could takealot of credit forthe 

Kaiapoi victory.

Rangiora women draw with mid-week Aces 

HOCKEY 

Afterwinning the local derby 

against HinemoaKaiapoi Rata a 

fortnight ago, the Rangiora 

Hurunui Hares were excited to 

take on unbeaten Avon Aces in 

the MidWeek Open Division 1 

competition. 

An own goal early put the 

Haresonthe back foot,but they 

replied quickly with an 

equaliser, thendominated for 

long periods and were unlucky 

not to score several times. 

In the end the Hares had to 

settle for a1all draw,which 

knocked them bothoff the top of 

the table, but withonly two 

points separating the top five 

teamsinthe competition every 

pointcounts. 

The Rangiora Hurunui Hawks 

have got on the board, scoring a 

21 upset win over Avon, aweek 

afteratight 43 loss against UC 

Aztecs. 

The Hawkswill be hoping this 

form continues against bottomof 

the tableSouthern United, so it 

can close the gap on 4th place in 

the Division3competition. 

Both Rangiora CBK Division 1 

teamshad tough asks last 

weekend againstHornby. 

The men were solid against the 

second placed team in their 

division, but were unable to 

manufacture agoal despite 

creating good opportunities. 

The women did manageto 

scorethreegreat goals, but it 

wasn't enoughasits opponents 

ran in seven.

Premiership, Rangiora 

Korimako look determined to 

dominate the SSL 

Championship. 

Two quick goals in the first 

quarter set them up for a 

comfortable 41 win againstUC 

Athenians, ateam that had 

beaten Rangiora earlier in the 

season. 

Unfortunately Rangiora 

Piwakawaka couldn't match that 

result, goingdown to UC Incas 

30,but the scoreline could have 

beenalot worse withoutthe 

heroic efforts of goalkeeper 

Cassidy New, who saved 17 shots 

on goal. 

At 21 down and with only 10 fit 

playersthe Rangiora Allsorts 

had to dig deep in theirmidweek 

men's clash against Marist 

Mooses, with George Ridgen 

scoring from apenalty stroke to 

take alate lead. 

Marist dropped its goal keeper 

near the end in adesperatebid to 

manufacture agoal, butinstead 

it gavethe Allsorts an easy 4th 

goal and an unassailable lead. 

Meanwhile heavy fog at 

MainPower Turf couldn't hold 

back the midweek Amen's team 

from demolishing Uni Romans 

110.

Kickstart Canterbury Presents Highway to Well 

Motorcyclists feature highly in our road crash 

statistics, particularly in the Canterbury area. 

While there are some great riding routes, wealso 

unfortunately have one of the highest death and 

serious injury rates in the country. 

Since 2015 sadly 44 motorcyclists have lost their 

lives on Canterbury roads with afurther 285 

seriously injured. For every one of those people it 

is an ongoing trauma for both families and loved 

ones le behind orrecovering from or adapting to 

the impact of serious injuries ontheir lives. 

Kickstart Canterbury is acollaborative effort 

involving Waimakariri and Selwyn District Councils, 

Christchurch City Council, ACC, Motorcycle Safety 

Advisory Council and local Ride Forever trainers. 

Each year events are held to encourage uptake of 

Ride Forever training and promote safer riding. 

This year Kickstart Canterbury are linking inwith 

Men’sHealth Week, recognising that motorcycle 

riding has many benefits other than transport. 

Being in the right physical and mental health when 

riding is key to keeping safe onthe roads. 

Kickstart’s “Highway to Well” events are free and 

will have guest speakers and motorcycle safety and 

health information. There will also be multiple spot 

prizes and free nibbles throughout the evening. 

The event provides agreat opportunity to come 

together and connect with likeminded riders, and 

to listen to topics on motorcycle safety and riding 

tips, mental health and wellbeing. 

Local Ride Forever trainerswill be there to chatto, 

along with the CanterburyMen's Centre, Menz Medical, 

and Green Prescription. 

Numbers are limited so register to secure aspot to 

attend an event at: 

• Woodend Community Centre, 17 June, 6.30pm

Hammering home electric 

An Amberleybased building 

company is working towards 

becoming carbon negative. 

Murchison Homes,which has an 

environmental focus, is adopting 

an electric vehicle(EV) fleetasa 

first stepinhelping removemore 

carbondioxide from the 

atmospherethan they emit. 

ManagingdirectorMarty 

Murchison says the company is 

also moving toward using wool 

insulation, renewable timbers 

such as beechand pine, and ecofriendly 

fibre cement. 

Martysays the benefits of 

swapping to EVs was compelling, 

and believes in the not too distant 

futurethe majority of New 

Zealanders will be driving them. 

‘‘We hope that by adopting an 

EV fleet we can lead by example 

and begin to effect real change,’’ 

he says. 

Electric vehicles emitted 80 

percent less carbonthan an 

equivalent petrol vehicle, were 

cheaper to run, and had lower 

maintenance costs 

Critics said batteries could not 

be recycled, but they could be 

used for solarback up, and 

facilities overseas werenow 

recycling the entire battery, and 

making them intonew ones. 

‘‘We will see these battery 

recycling facilities in New 

Zealandonce enough people swap 

over,’’Marty says. 

The range of the vehicles 

needed to be calculated when 

making the transition to EVs, he 

says. 

‘‘The Nissan Leafinthe 

Murchison Homes fleet covers 

220km while the Tesla Model 3 

will travelupto660km, depending 

on how heavy footed you are.’’

when their young trotting 

star Muscle Mountain, 

driven by their son, junior 

driver, Ben Hope, won the 

$23,000 mobile trotting 

freeforall on the 

programme. 

It was aclassy 

achievement for the couple 

with Muscle Mountain’s 

stablemate, Midnight Dash 

finishing second in the 

race. 

Greg said it was agreat 

family occassion with Ben 

driving the winner but also 

great to achieve the win 

with Muscle Mountain, the 

winner of 11 races and 

$167,000 while still only 

four, because ‘‘he is the best 

trotter we have in the stable 

by acountry mile,’’ and for 

Midnight Dash, to run 

second. 

‘‘He is also asmart young 

trotter and has already won 

nine races.’’
