Huts residents may get extra consultation time<br />

• By Daniel Alvey<br />

UPPER SELWYN Huts residents<br />

have forced the council to<br />

reconsider the future of the<br />

settlement.<br />

But it has cost the residents<br />

more than $10,000.<br />

Hut residents have put pressure<br />

on the council since March<br />

when it set an eviction date for<br />

June 30, 2039.<br />

Councillors will today vote<br />

on six recommendations, which<br />

include pausing the current<br />

process and extending the<br />

current deed of licence – due to<br />

expire on August 26 – to <strong>July</strong> 1,<br />

2025, with the council using the<br />

10 months to engage with the<br />

huts community and potentially<br />

set a new eviction date.<br />

Legal pressure and more<br />

than 200 queries and Official<br />

Information Act requests from<br />

residents to council has now forced<br />

its hand.<br />

The residents’ barrister Clare<br />

Lenihan said the original<br />

consultation period did not<br />

allow residents enough time to<br />

Clare<br />

Lenihan<br />

respond.<br />

“The residents<br />

were given two<br />

working days<br />

back in March to<br />

digest a 110 page<br />

document . . .<br />

certainly the<br />

residents would<br />

say its unfair.”<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> Hut Owners<br />

Association chair Graham Evans<br />

said residents had gone to great<br />

expense to fight the March<br />

decision.<br />

“I would liked to have seen<br />

some better understanding from<br />

council before we had to get into<br />

this situation,” Evans said.<br />

All Blacks debut<br />

a family affair<br />

• By Barry Clarke<br />

SAM DARRY was just three-monthsold<br />

when he got his first look at the All<br />

Blacks environment: Mum Katrina was<br />

the team’s nutritionist, and at times he<br />

would be in a front pack when she went<br />

about her work.<br />

Fast forward <strong>24</strong> years and the now<br />

2.03cm, 110kg lock made his All Blacks<br />

debut against Fiji in San Diego on<br />

Saturday, coming off the bench for the<br />

last 20 minutes in the 47-5 win.<br />

Katrina was there too, in her second<br />

stint as the ABs nutritionist, a role she<br />

has had since 2008, while dad Hunter<br />

and brother Tom all made hurried<br />

HAPPY FAMILY: Katrina, Hunter<br />

and Tom Darry with Sam after his<br />

All Blacks debut in San Diego.<br />

trips to San Diego when Sam became a<br />

possibility to make the 23-man side for<br />

the Fijian test.<br />

The family is from West Melton, where<br />

Sam and siblings Tom, Charlotte and<br />

Alice, played their junior rugby.<br />

“It was a real special moment. I was<br />

just so excited for him,” Hunter told the<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong> as he headed home from<br />

the United States earlier this week.<br />

“Until you get onto the field, you’re not<br />

an All Black. It was great to see him get<br />

across the chalk.”<br />

Hunter had been in Auckland with<br />

friends – including <strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong><br />

columnist Bevan Sisson – for the<br />

previous weekend’s England test and a<br />

few rounds of golf.<br />

UPPER SELWYN Huts<br />

residents can rightly feel<br />

aggrieved about the way they<br />

have been treated over the bid<br />

to evict them.<br />

Councillors will today vote<br />

to extend the current process to<br />

evict them from the settlement<br />

for a year.<br />

But this has only come after<br />

residents engaged a barrister<br />

to fight their case – paid out<br />

of their own pockets and<br />

fundraising. So far it has cost<br />

more than $10,000.<br />

In March, council set an<br />

eviction date of June 30, 2039.<br />

THERE ARE concerns noise<br />

from a planned quarry near<br />

Burnham will keep soldiers<br />

at the military camp awake at<br />

night.<br />

Fletcher Building subsidiary<br />

Burnham 2020 Ltd wants to<br />

turn 361.9ha of farmland into<br />

a quarry about 500m from the<br />

camp. It has applied to Environment<br />

Canterbury for resource<br />

consents.<br />

The proposed quarry will be<br />

operated by Fletcher Building<br />

subsidary Winstone Aggregates.<br />

In its submission to ECan,<br />

the New Zealand Defence Force<br />

said if noise was not managed<br />

by the quarry, it would disrupt<br />

personnel and other Burnham<br />

residents.<br />

“NZDF is concerned that<br />

noise generated by any proposed<br />

quarry nighttime operations<br />

could disrupt residents and staff<br />

sleeping in barracks,” it said in<br />

the submission.<br />

It also wants assurances about<br />

the quarry’s potential effects<br />

on water sources and transport<br />

routes, and how dust will be<br />

managed.<br />

“NZDF seeks that the resource<br />

consents if granted, include appropriate<br />

measures and conditions<br />

to mitigate potential effects<br />

on the camp. Otherwise, NZDF<br />

requests that the application be<br />

declined.”<br />

If approved, the company will<br />

turn a dairy farm on the intersection<br />

of Grange and Aylesbury<br />

into an aggregate quarry, 40ha at<br />

The Defence Force is one of<br />

22 submitters, including nearby<br />

residents, Fire and Emergency<br />

New Zealand, the Ministry of<br />

Education, and NZ Transport<br />

Agency Waka Kotahi.<br />

The organisations have raised<br />

concerns they would like addressed,<br />

while the residents are<br />

all opposing the application.<br />

FENZ wants clarification<br />

about the amount of water<br />

available on site for firefighting,<br />

while the Ministry of Education<br />

wants dust, traffic and any other<br />

effects on Burnham School<br />

managed.<br />

NZTA was concerned about<br />

the quarry’s traffic management<br />

plan not having restrictions on<br />

which roads trucks would use.<br />

Nearby residents are opposing<br />

the quarry for its size, dust,<br />

effects on underground water,<br />

increase in traffic and noise, and<br />

the impacts on rural lifestyle.<br />

Fletcher Building declined to<br />

answer questions from <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

<strong>Times</strong>.<br />

All the company would say<br />

was: “We’re currently working<br />

through the submissions<br />

received and will actively<br />

engage with submitters to better<br />

understand and address their<br />

concerns. This includes the<br />

Defence Force and FENZ.”<br />

A date for a hearing is yet to<br />

be set.<br />

A digger was used to help<br />

the property had a digger ready<br />

Wonderful winter<br />

layering at Reinvent<br />

Boutique<br />

Layering your clothing can help<br />

you cope with unpredictable<br />

weather and varying<br />

temperatures. Reinvent Boutique<br />

offers a wide selection of winter<br />

coats, jackets, and knitwear,<br />

making dressing for winter easy<br />

and enjoyable.<br />

Aimee from Reinvent Boutique<br />

says, “What I love about winter<br />

is layering, as I love jackets and<br />

jumpers, vests, dresses, tights,<br />

and boots. It’s a fun time to mix<br />

it up with your wardrobe and<br />

try different pieces. Just because<br />

it’s winter doesn’t mean it has<br />

to be boring.” Aimee notes<br />

that this year, there’s a renewed<br />

interest in stylish<br />

and functional<br />

winter coats. You’ll<br />

find layering easy<br />

with bright and<br />

colourful knits,<br />

stylish dresses and<br />

pants, and warm<br />

jackets and coats.<br />

inviting, high-end<br />

consignment shop<br />

selling quality onbehalf<br />

clothing. The<br />

clothing is preloved<br />

and in brand-new-looking<br />

fantastic condition. People often<br />

think it is a new clothing store,<br />

and Aimee welcomes customers<br />

to see how good it is. Aimee is<br />

the first to admit she is incredibly<br />

fussy about the clothing she<br />

selects for the shop: “If it’s not in<br />

perfect condition, it doesn’t make<br />

it through the door.”<br />

Aimee’s bright smile greets<br />

customers, and if you need help<br />

putting together some outfits,<br />

ask her. She is “here to help you<br />

as much or as little as you like.”<br />

Aimee’s number one passion is<br />

to help women find what suits<br />

them and makes them happy.<br />

She confirms it is about “helping<br />

women look and feel fantastic<br />

no matter what.” She’s a real<br />

person helping real people, and<br />

she may push you out of your<br />

comfort zone, getting you to try<br />

on different colours or styles but<br />

emphasises the experience will be<br />

fun.<br />

Reinvent Boutique’s<br />

regularly updated<br />

17m comms tower for new Lincoln<br />

town centre a potential ‘eyesore’<br />

• By Daniel Alvey<br />

A 17M-HIGH communication<br />

tower for the district’s emergency<br />

services is set to be built in the<br />

centre of Lincoln, with some<br />

calling it a potential eyesore.<br />

The tower is part of a national<br />

programme to improve communication<br />

for emergency services,<br />

and is expected to be completed<br />

later this year.<br />

Once built, it will sit between<br />

two public plazas which are part<br />

of a $46 million town centre<br />

upgrade, to be carried out over<br />

the next 10 years.<br />

The upgrade is designed to<br />

make Lincoln’s town centre<br />

more attractive. It includes<br />

issues, and putting overhead<br />

lines underground.<br />

Coffee Culture will be across<br />

the road from the tower. Owner<br />

Steve Jaeger said other locations<br />

should have considered.<br />

“Why can’t it be behind the<br />

event centre or something where<br />

there’s no one really around?<br />

It shouldn’t be an eyesore for<br />

everybody,” Jaeger said.<br />

Next Generation Critical<br />

Communications is in charge<br />

of the project, but <strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong><br />

understands a separate company<br />

applied for a certificate of<br />

compliance to build the tower on<br />

Lyttelton St next to the library.<br />

The company and the full details<br />

of certificate of compliance<br />

have remained confidential.<br />

Jaeger said the application<br />

should have been made public.<br />

“I think the best thing would<br />

have been if they had a conversation<br />

with the community.”<br />

Chorus owns the land the<br />

tower is expected to be built<br />

on and leases it to the council<br />

for community uses, including<br />

the Lincoln Farmers and Craft<br />

Market.<br />

Market chair Gary Miller also<br />

said the tower will be an eyesore<br />

in the town centre.<br />

“Anything three to four times<br />

the size of anything around it is<br />

going to stand out.<br />

“It is going to impact on people<br />

and businesses and livelihoods<br />

and it should have been something<br />

discussed to begin with,”<br />

Miller said.<br />

He said the tower has the<br />

potential to impact at least seven<br />

stalls and disrupt the flow of the<br />

market.<br />

An NGCC spokesperson said<br />

the application was kept confidential<br />

for security reasons.<br />

“New Zealand’s emergency<br />

services do not promote the<br />

names or locations of radio sites<br />

in the interests of site security<br />

to ensure the ongoing provision<br />

of a radio service for frontline<br />

responders – to be safe from the<br />

risk of potential actions from<br />

‘bad actors’.”<br />

NGCC would not say whether<br />

other locations were considered,<br />

but said the site was chosen due<br />

to its existing infrastructure.<br />

“The site is on Chorus land<br />

which means it benefits from the<br />

existing resilient infrastructure<br />

the exchange provides. This<br />

resilience, including the power<br />

supply, supports the emergency<br />

services’ requirement for the<br />

continuous provision of a<br />

radio service so they can stay<br />

connected, and respond to<br />

everyday jobs and also large<br />

events, for example, weatherrelated<br />

emergencies in the<br />

area.”<br />

Springs Ward<br />

councillor Grant<br />

Miller said<br />

he has asked<br />

council chief<br />

executive Sharon<br />

Mason to find<br />

out from the applicant<br />

if other Grant Miller<br />

locations were<br />

considered.<br />

“In an ideal world, of course<br />

we wouldn’t want it there but<br />

if it’s absolutely necessary to go<br />

there and it’s the only place it can<br />

go we’ll have to make the best of<br />

it,” Grant said.<br />

Lincoln Volunteer Fire Brigade<br />

chief Richie Bee told <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

<strong>Times</strong> improved communications<br />

were always a benefit. He<br />

said the brigade has never had<br />

any major issues with radio black<br />

spots.<br />

A St John spokesperson also<br />

said it had not experienced any<br />

black spots.<br />

• From page 1<br />

Deputy mayor Malcolm Lyall<br />

admitted more consultation<br />

could have been done.<br />

“Consultation is a tricky thing<br />

and no one’s ever happy with it,<br />

but perhaps we haven’t handled<br />

it very well,” Lyall said.<br />

Council chief executive Sharon<br />

Mason said the council has<br />

done what it said it would do.<br />

“What we’ve always said all<br />

the way along is that we want<br />

to get feedback from the community<br />

and we have been really<br />

open about that and what you’re<br />

seeing is a reflection of that,”<br />

Mason said.<br />

“We’ve had a number of town<br />

hall meetings, we’ve had a number<br />

of conversations with the<br />

community, I’ve been down to<br />

visit the community myself and<br />

taking on the feedback<br />

from that we’ve said here’s<br />

an alternative route.”<br />

In 2019, it was decided<br />

the community’s future<br />

would be short-term and<br />

finite. Mason said the term<br />

will still be finite, but no<br />

eviction date has been set.<br />

When the decision was<br />

made, climate change and<br />

the future of the wastewater<br />

system were the major concerns.<br />

The wastewater issues have now<br />

been solved with a pipeline to<br />

Graham<br />

Evans<br />

be built connecting the huts to<br />

the Pines Wastewater Treatment<br />

Plant.<br />

Evans accepts climate<br />

change may eventually<br />

force residents to leave.<br />

“We do realise if<br />

there’s a change in climate,<br />

we are not going<br />

to stay there underwater.”<br />

Evans said he was<br />

proud of the community<br />

standing its ground.<br />

“There has been a<br />

magnificent amount of work<br />

done by the whole team now,”<br />

Evans said.<br />

“We’ve got some really good<br />

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

Future for huts still finite<br />

people pulling the oars and<br />

we’re all going in the same<br />

direction.”<br />

While happy with the new<br />

direction Evans said he still<br />

has concerns, including the<br />

planned inspection of individual<br />

huts.<br />

“The inspection criteria seems<br />

a bit over the top considering<br />

that they are not coming and<br />

visiting all the other houses in<br />

the <strong>Selwyn</strong> District and doing a<br />

similar inspection.”<br />

The council is planning to<br />

spend $41,500 to undertake an<br />

external building and lot inspection<br />

of the existing huts and<br />

any other associated structures<br />

FUTURE:<br />

Upper <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

Huts residents<br />

may get more<br />

consultation<br />

time and<br />

potentially a<br />

new eviction<br />

date.<br />

to determine compliance using<br />

rules from 1947 as the baseline<br />

requirement.<br />

The extra year of consultation<br />

is also expected to cost council<br />

about $100,000.<br />

Mason said the cost is part<br />

of ensuring the council does a<br />

thorough job.<br />

“Upper <strong>Selwyn</strong> Huts is a<br />

unique place and its better we go<br />

through a process and see what<br />

the outcome is in 12 months.”<br />

As part of the consultation,<br />

how much residents pay for the<br />

wastewater pipeline will also<br />

be reassessed. In March, it was<br />

decided residents would pay 30<br />

per cent of the $2 million.<br />

Tough times<br />

force bar<br />

to close<br />

• By Daniel Alvey<br />

TOUGH economic conditions<br />

have forced the unexpected<br />

closure of the Lincoln HQ bar and<br />

restaurant.<br />

“Despite our best efforts and<br />

unwavering dedication we have<br />

faced continuous operational<br />

challenges and an uphill battle<br />

since opening in the midst of the<br />

Covid-19 pandemic in 2021,” HQ<br />

management posted to Facebook.<br />

“Unfortunately, the financial<br />

pressures and the ever-changing<br />

business landscape have made<br />

impossible for us to continue<br />

operating.”<br />

The post thanked customers,<br />

the community and staff for their<br />

support.<br />

Meanwhile The Bridge Bar and<br />

Eatery in Prebbleton, which was<br />

damaged by a fire in April, could<br />

be closed for a while yet.<br />

Owner Murray Smith said they<br />

are not expecting to reopen until<br />

late this year or early next.<br />

After the fire Smith was hoping<br />

to be open within two months,<br />

but more roof repair work was<br />

needed.<br />

‘It was great to see him<br />

get across the chalk’<br />

• From page 1<br />

Sam was involved with the ABs<br />

warm up before kick-off. Sisson<br />

mused who might be part of the<br />

make up for the Fijian test.<br />

“We mentioned that it would<br />

be interesting if any would be<br />

rested for San Diego, and if they<br />

were, would Sam then be a part<br />

of it,” said Sisson.<br />

On Sunday morning, it was<br />

confirmed Darry was in the<br />

squad for San Diego. But whether<br />

he was going to be in the final 23<br />

would not be known until later<br />

in the week.<br />

Said Sisson: “We went over to<br />

Waiheke Island on the Sunday<br />

and we said to Hunter it was<br />

definitely worth going to San<br />

Diego.<br />

“We said ‘give us your<br />

gear, we’ll take it back to<br />

Christchurch’ while he organised<br />

a flight to get to America. You<br />

wouldn’t want to miss the<br />

opportunity to watch your son<br />

run out on debut.”<br />

Hunter, though, didn’t need<br />

any convincing. “I thought I’d<br />

take a chance (Sam would get<br />

game time).”<br />

Coincidentally, other son<br />

Tom was heading back to<br />

changed his travel plans and also<br />

went to San Diego.<br />

Sam celebrated his <strong>24</strong>th<br />

birthday with family two days<br />

before the San Diego test over<br />

lunch.<br />

“It was really good, really<br />

special,” said Hunter.<br />

Rams roots on show<br />

in San Diego victory<br />

• By Sam Coughlan<br />

A LINCOLN University rugby<br />

star has put the club on the<br />

map from more than 11,000km<br />

away.<br />

Hooker George Bell came<br />

off the bench for his All Blacks<br />

debut in their 47-5 win over Fiji<br />

in San Diego, and drove over<br />

from close range to score his first<br />

international try.<br />

He celebrated in kind, putting<br />

his hands to his head to mimic<br />

horns – the symbol of the<br />

Lincoln University Rams.<br />

University head coach Simon<br />

Livingstone said it was great to<br />

“He’s a true club man and<br />

obviously when he scored the try<br />

and put up a rams horn, it was<br />

pretty cool and everyone had a<br />

good laugh.”<br />

Crusaders duties have limited<br />

Bell’s involvement in the last two<br />

years but Livingstone said he’s<br />

still involved as much as possible.<br />

“Over the last couple of years<br />

it’s only been a couple of times<br />

that he’s been involved, but he’s<br />

always down watching when he<br />

can. He’s always open for young<br />

guys asking questions and he’s<br />

more than happy to help out,<br />

which is great.”<br />

IN RESPONSE TO your article in<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong> on <strong>July</strong> 17, we live under<br />

the flight path on Weedons Rd, or I<br />

should say a very small portion of the<br />

land we reside on.<br />

I have lived in the Rolleston and<br />

Weedons area for most of my life and<br />

when Rolleston finally got the go-ahead<br />

to expand, most of us realised it would<br />

grow to where or past where it is now.<br />

We have had an earthquake that sped<br />

up the process, but it was always going to<br />

happen.<br />

The bylaws in place are outdated and<br />

are a hindrance to further growth.<br />

– Grant Morris<br />

I grew up in Harewood, right in the<br />

flight path of Christchurch Airport. I<br />

used to really enjoy watching all the<br />

flights take off and land.<br />

The noise was an issue in an old,<br />

single-glazed house, especially with the<br />

bigger planes, but building styles and<br />

materials have come a long way and can<br />

help combat that now.<br />

I would like to be able to subdivide my<br />

family property in Harewood but am<br />

unable to due to the zoning restrictions.<br />

I’m in a position of having to sell<br />

it as-is, and potentially lose out on<br />

substantially more money.<br />

I now live in West Melton and would<br />

also support new housing in contour<br />

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

zones, so long as noise control is taken<br />

into account and factored into the<br />

building design.<br />

– Emma Aitken<br />

I read with interest in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong><br />

regarding the big jump in motorists<br />

caught speeding.<br />

So many speeders have been caught in<br />

Brookside Rd because someone thought<br />

it was worthwhile putting an unmarked<br />

van with a speed camera in it every<br />

Monday and most Thursdays around<br />

8am.<br />

Heaven knows where these two vans<br />

spend the rest of their time, but it<br />

certainly isn’t in Irwell where I live.<br />

LETTERS 11<br />

Readers respond to flight path<br />

bylaws, speeding drivers issue<br />

NOISE CONTROL: Under current<br />

rules, houses cannot be built in<br />

airport noise contour areas.<br />

PHOTO: NEWSLINE<br />

Tonight, I reported yet another<br />

motorist travelling at nearly 100km/h<br />

through Irwell to the police, something I<br />

do regularly. The speed limit is 60km/h.<br />

I regularly report speeding motorists<br />

to the police, or their employers if they’re<br />

in work vehicles – driving billboards<br />

for their businesses. The drivers usually<br />

forget they’re so easily identified.<br />

How a village resident hasn’t been<br />

mown down by a speeding vehicle while<br />

leaving their driveway is really a miracle.<br />

The variable speed limits will come into force<br />

as the signs are installed outside each school<br />

and is a part of the Council’s Interim Speed<br />

Management Plan.<br />

For most schools, the times of day when the<br />

reduced speed limits will be in place is from<br />

8.30am to 9am and 2.45 to 3.15pm.<br />

During these pick-up and drop off times,<br />

please be alert for kids getting off and on<br />

school buses, in and out of cars and travelling<br />

by foot, bike and scooters.<br />

The Council’s Executive Director Infrastructure<br />

and Property, Tim Mason says the rollout of the<br />

new speed limits is a great outcome for local<br />

school children and their families.<br />

“<strong>Selwyn</strong>’s roads have been getting busier and<br />

busier as our population grows. Our speeds<br />

around schools need to account for this so<br />

that our kids can safely get to and from<br />

school each day.”<br />

“This was something that came through in<br />

the community feedback on the draft Speed<br />

Management Plan last year, and aligns with<br />

the Government’s intentions on setting<br />

speed limits.”<br />

“We’re pleased to begin rolling out these safer<br />

limits for our schools.”<br />

The Council’s Interim Speed Management<br />

Plan has been certified by NZ Transport<br />

Agency Waka Kotahi.<br />

FOR SONIA Fletcher, seeing the<br />

smiles on people’s faces when they<br />

come into the op-shop where she<br />

volunteers is her favourite part of<br />

the job.<br />

Sonia has been volunteering at<br />

the Hope Op Shop in Rolleston<br />

for the past two years and never<br />

thought receiving an award for<br />

her work could be a possibility.<br />

To her surprise, she was recently<br />

a recipient at the Volunteering<br />

Canterbury recognition awards.<br />

The 79-year-old has always<br />

enjoyed volunteer work, so when<br />

she saw the Hope Op Shop<br />

advertising for staff, she applied.<br />

“I enjoy giving back to the<br />

community. You can see their<br />

happy faces when they come in<br />

and buy stuff.<br />

“I just enjoy meeting people and<br />

try to bring a bit of happiness into<br />

their life if I can.”<br />

Her main job at the shop is<br />

packing purchases for customers,<br />

and likes to chat with them as she<br />

packs.<br />

She couldn’t name a favourite<br />

memory during her time<br />

volunteering, but said the people<br />

she works with make the job a lot<br />

more fun.<br />

“There’s lots of laughs, lots of<br />

jokes. I have a good support group<br />

that I work with, fantastic group.”<br />

As well as the op shop, she also<br />

volunteers with the Rolleston<br />

Lions Club.<br />

Sonia was shocked when she<br />

learned she would be receiving an<br />

award and was then told she had<br />

been nominated twice, from both<br />

the op shop and the Lions.<br />

“I was gobsmacked. I just did<br />

not expect it at all.<br />

“I said ‘surely it could go to<br />

Being recognised for her work is<br />

something she is really proud of.<br />

“It means everything. I’ve got<br />

it (the award) sitting in the prime<br />

position on the sideboard. I felt<br />

quite humble actually.”<br />

When Sonia is not volunteering,<br />

she keeps busy with line dancing<br />

classes and helping out at Hope<br />

Church.<br />

BRANCHING OUT: The Ellesmere Big Band is hosting<br />

a concert in an attempt to get its music out to the<br />

community.<br />

Big band creates<br />

own opportunity<br />

• By Isabella Adams<br />

FOR THE first time in eight<br />

years, Ellesmere Big Band will<br />

be hosting a concert to tap<br />

into the growing Rolleston<br />

population.<br />

The band will be performing<br />

songs from the 1930s to present<br />

day at the Rolleston Community<br />

Centre on Saturday.<br />

Band member Alex Hayward<br />

said the band is hoping the<br />

concert will bring some interest<br />

to their music.<br />

“(The concert is) an attempt to<br />

try and get the music out there.<br />

“The population of Rolleston<br />

has obviously grown considerably,<br />

and we thought that it’d<br />

be an opportunity to see if we<br />

could tap into the growing<br />

population.”<br />

The 18-member band usually<br />

performs at festivals in <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

and Christchurch, but wanted to<br />

try something different by putting<br />

on its own concert.<br />

“We wanted to get another<br />

gig and we thought we’d do it<br />

ourselves.”<br />

Tickets for the concert<br />

are $20, and can be found at<br />

Prebbleton hoping for silverware<br />

to send off departing head coach<br />

• By Sam Coughlan<br />

PREBBLETON will look to<br />

farewell head coach Simon<br />

Fitzgerald with the Coleman<br />

Shield on Saturday.<br />

After two years at Prebbleton,<br />

as head coach of the division 1<br />

team and director of rugby, this<br />

weekend’s final against Darfield<br />

at Kirwee Domain will be<br />

Fitzgerald’s last.<br />

He has loved his time with the<br />

club, last year helping them win<br />

their first Coleman Shield since<br />

1974, while<br />

they also made<br />

the combined<br />

country final in<br />

each of the last<br />

two years.<br />

“It’s been<br />

awesome. It’s<br />

a really good<br />

rugby club, not<br />

just in one area,<br />

but in all areas.<br />

Simon<br />

Fitzgerald<br />

Really strong culture and as far as<br />

an amateur rugby club experience<br />

goes, you can’t really do better<br />

than what we’ve had at Prebbleton<br />

for the last couple of years,” he<br />

said.<br />

Fitzgerald, who is from<br />

Northern Ireland, is heading to<br />

Vancouver, Canada, when his visa<br />

expires next month.<br />

He lived there for four years<br />

before coming to Prebbleton.<br />

“I’m just moving on to the<br />

next stage of life. I’ve got some<br />

friends there and I’m a permanent<br />

resident.”<br />

But he’s ‘probably not’ going to<br />

work in rugby.<br />

“(I’ll) just focus on getting a bit<br />

of money,” he said.<br />

Fitzgerald said culture was<br />

a key part of the Prebbleton’s<br />

div 1 success – the side have<br />

made all four finals across the<br />

combined country and Ellesmere<br />

competitions during his reign.<br />

“We’re delighted we get to<br />

have one more week together.<br />

Everybody in the group gets on<br />

really well with each other. Some<br />

MUSCLE: Dion Falconer on the charge for Prebbleton.<br />

strong friendships are made<br />

through the club, and through<br />

rugby,” he said.<br />

“The boys are just happy to keep<br />

doing what they enjoy doing with<br />

each other.”<br />

In the weekend’s semi-finals,<br />

Prebbleton and Darfield both won<br />

away from home<br />

Prebbleton scored late to beat<br />

Southbridge 22-19 while Darfield<br />

caused one of the upsets of the<br />

season, beating competition<br />

favourites Waihora 30-22.<br />

Darfield head coach Chris Lea<br />

was stoked with the result.<br />

“There was a bit of expectation<br />

I think. They’re the top side and<br />

they’ve played pretty well. They’ve<br />

been the benchmark all season.<br />

“We knew we had to turn it on<br />

and the boys played really well.<br />

I’m very happy.”<br />

Darfield made a poor start to<br />

the competition – they didn’t win<br />

any of their first four games – but<br />

three wins to finish the season saw<br />

• By Sam Coughlan<br />

A LINCOLN karter has made a<br />

step towards his racing dreams<br />

with victory at the National<br />

Schools Championship in<br />

Nelson.<br />

Lincoln High’s Izaak Fletcher,<br />

15, won the Rotax Max Junior<br />

class at the event two weeks ago.<br />

Izaak was four seconds clear<br />

of second-place Levi McMillan<br />

from St Bede’s College – the<br />

biggest winning margin of<br />

the three races held at the<br />

competition.<br />

He said it was a ‘really special’<br />

victory.<br />

“I’ve been trying to win that<br />

championship for quite a few<br />

them sneak into the top four.<br />

“We scraped through on bonus<br />

points, same with the combined<br />

comp,” said Lea.<br />

He said their uptick in form<br />

was thanks to the team growing<br />

used to the new coaching system,<br />

with Lea and Steve Devereux as<br />

co-coaches.<br />

“I think it’s just time with the<br />

gameplan and the boys really<br />

getting clarity on what they’re<br />

doing.”<br />

Prebbleton’s recent form had<br />

been the opposite. Before their<br />

semi-final win, they had won just<br />

one of their previous four games<br />

dating back to the combined<br />

country final loss to Glenmark-<br />

Cheviot in late June.<br />

That included a 47-38 loss to<br />

Southbridge in the final round,<br />

before Prebbleton reversed that<br />

result on Saturday.<br />

Fitzgerald said their semi-final<br />

win was one of their best.<br />

“We discussed as a group to<br />

years now, so it was real good to<br />

finally be able to win it.”<br />

Izaak is already on the way to<br />

achieving his dreams of being a<br />

professional race car driver.<br />

no more second chances.<br />

“They all stepped up and made<br />

an 80-minute performance. I<br />

would say that was one of our best<br />

performances of the year.”<br />

The teams will meet in a<br />

rematch of the 2022 final, won by<br />

Darfield for their first Coleman<br />

Shield title.<br />

so I think that just takes a little bit<br />

of pressure off us,” said Lea.<br />

Obviously when I first started<br />

in the car, it’s a lot different<br />

to karting so I was a little bit<br />

nervous around all the other<br />

drivers, especially in a bigger<br />

car.<br />

“It’s hard to get used to it<br />

because it’s a different size and<br />

different speed and all that.”<br />

The end goal is – of course –<br />

to be a professional racer.<br />

“I’d really just want to be like<br />

a race car driver in general,” he<br />

said.<br />

“I would prefer open-wheelers<br />

like IndyCar or Formula One,<br />

but I’m really just willing to<br />

go wherever this journey takes<br />

me.”

Rugby matters<br />

AS THE END of the club season<br />

looms for country and town this<br />

weekend, coaches are making<br />

slight adjustments to their game<br />

strategy now they know who<br />

they will face in the finals.<br />

Work out who is fit, what the<br />

bench will look like and which<br />

players will make the greatest<br />

impact.<br />

Ultimately, who gets selected<br />

is often the difference between<br />

winning and losing.<br />

One thing coaches may have<br />

to navigate is the tricky selection<br />

of returning players who may<br />

have been unavailable for a<br />

number of weeks, but are now<br />

able to play.<br />

Do you stick with the players<br />

who got you to the finals, or<br />

do you pick the strongest team<br />

available? Will it create issues<br />

with the team’s continuity or<br />

do you back a player who is<br />

one of the best in the team to<br />

make a much needed impact, in<br />

a game that for many will be<br />

the highlight of their amateur<br />

career? It is a very fine line<br />

indeed.<br />

I’m in the pick the best<br />

available players camp – taking<br />

into account if it will affect your<br />

rhythm or not.<br />

We were in a situation a few<br />

years ago where a Crusader was<br />

eligible to play in our club finals<br />

at Rugby Park. Do we play him<br />

or not?<br />

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

Due to the representative<br />

season and a small injury break,<br />

he had only played a handful of<br />

club games during the year but<br />

was now ready to return for a<br />

grand final.<br />

There are many varied<br />

opinions on how this should be<br />

addressed but our process was to<br />

first speak to the player involved.<br />

Was he happy to play? Yes.<br />

Secondly, talk to the leadership<br />

group/captain and discuss if this<br />

happened, how would they feel –<br />

Sisson’s views. Email<br />

Keep responses to 200<br />

words or less<br />

what would the consensus be for<br />

the team?<br />

In this case they were happy<br />

for him to play as they rightly<br />

wanted the best chance to win.<br />

Lastly, talk to the player<br />

who wouldn’t be making an<br />

appearance on game day –<br />

explain the reasons. Though<br />

he was missing out and keen<br />

to play, he understood our<br />

position and realised it was<br />

team first, and he had made a<br />

great contribution to the season<br />

already.<br />

In this case, the rugby gods<br />

smiled on us. We got the win<br />

and the following year we were<br />

final-bound again. The player<br />

who missed out the previous<br />

year was running out of the<br />

tunnel at kick-off and got to<br />

experience a grand final win.<br />

But it is still a balancing act.<br />

Teams have to sort what suits<br />

them best.<br />

Shadecraft: plan now for spring transformation<br />

There are so many ways that Shadecraft<br />

can transform your outdoor living spaces,<br />

so if you have ideas in mind for this<br />

spring and summer, why not get ahead by<br />

planning a consultation now.<br />

Owner James Irvine and his team fully<br />

understand the intensity of our local<br />

weather, and are expert at installing reliable<br />

and effective weather protection that is<br />

longlasting and safe. And best of all, this<br />

wide range of attractive and affordable<br />

products is made right here in Canterbury.<br />

Shadecraft has been providing tailored<br />

and stylish solutions for homes, schools<br />

and businesses across the South Island<br />

for 18 years. It’s a full-service operation<br />

– Shadecraft designs, manufactures and<br />

installs.<br />

Shade sails are ever popular. The range<br />

sold by Shadecraft offers the ultimate<br />

combination of maximum sun protection,<br />

strength and durability, to ensure<br />

maintenance-free, long-life performance.<br />

Excitingly, these come in a range of colours<br />

designed to suit all preferences. You might<br />

prefer neutral whites or greys, or cooling<br />

greens and blues, or the vibrant colourpops<br />

of reds and oranges. Choose the<br />

perfect colour for your environment and<br />

personal style.<br />

Wave shades are a fresh alternative to<br />

shade sails. Their smooth, shapely billows<br />

bring effortless style and the fact that they<br />

are retractable gives you full flexibility in<br />

how you enjoy your outdoor space. Choose<br />

from the range of modern fabric colours<br />

to complement the existing style of your<br />

property. Simple, clean lines and the highperformance<br />

polished stainless steel fixings<br />

add to the premium finish.<br />

Eclipse canopies are the next step<br />

up in weather protection. The super<br />

tough polycarbonate roof sheeting, with<br />

a choice of tints, is supported by a sturdy<br />

rectangular steel frame, galvanised to<br />

a colour of your choice. The sheeting<br />

provides 99% protection from the sun’s<br />

rays and can withstand hailstones up to<br />

25mm in diameter. Each Eclipse is custommade<br />

to suit each installation, and you can<br />

rest assured that the product conforms to<br />

Council requirements, enabling permits to<br />

be granted with minimal delay.<br />

Shadecraft’s multiple other offerings<br />

include louvre roofs that enable you to<br />

customise your perfect outdoor room all<br />

year round, unobtrusive yet highly effective<br />

drop blinds, and attractive and practical<br />

car ports.<br />

available, check out the gallery at<br />

Wardrobe<br />

de-cluttering:<br />

not lucrative,<br />

but rewarding<br />

• By Isabelle Teresa<br />

Over-stuffed wardrobes are<br />

unmanageable and depressing. While<br />

winter is a perfect time to tackle<br />

wardrobe de-cluttering, it’s a hard task<br />

emotionally and practically. However<br />

focusing on the joy of the result should<br />

get you through – imagine being able to<br />

so easily reach in and grab anything that<br />

you know suits you and your lifestyle<br />

right now. Here’s some ways to get there.<br />

Selling<br />

First, an honest warning: it is hard to<br />

re-coup money on clothes, shoes and<br />

accessories, no matter how good their<br />

quality and condition. Try recycled<br />

fashion boutiques with your best,<br />

most recent pieces. Boutiques have<br />

stringent criteria, limited rack time, and<br />

a significant selling fee to support the<br />

premises.<br />

Price and list your items online:<br />

• TradeMe and Marketplace: low<br />

selling fees. TradeMe moderates<br />

buyer and seller authenticity whereas<br />

Marketplace specialises in quick<br />

turnaround. While you might be<br />

lucky, clothing doesn’t do particularly<br />

well on either.<br />

• www.designerwardrobe.co.nz:<br />

higher-end items, and they handle<br />

the money transfer for you.<br />

• Depop app: set up your own “shop”,<br />

get paid through PayPal or Depop<br />

Payments.<br />

Online sites that sell for you include:<br />

www.andagain.co.nz<br />

www.ilovelabels.nz<br />

www.recycleboutique.co.nz<br />

www.recyclestyle.co.nz<br />

Send them your clothes to select from<br />

and list. Seller costs are higher.<br />

Clothes Swop<br />

Find these on community noticeboards.<br />

Drop off clothes in advance to receive<br />

tokens to redeem at the swop event.<br />

While not emptying your wardrobe,<br />

you gain some reward for your previous<br />

purchases while updating your wardrobe<br />

to items you can wear now.<br />

Donating<br />

Project Uplift distributes used and near<br />

new bras, swimwear and underpants to<br />

Before<br />

women and girls in need in NZ and the<br />

Pacific. Bras don’t have to be in perfect<br />

condition, as different parts of them<br />

can be re-used. Post donations to the<br />

Christchurch regional coordinator.<br />

Clothed in Love distributes children’s<br />

clothing and books, with drop-off points<br />

in Lincoln, Rolleston and West Melton.<br />

Dress for Success distributes “gently<br />

used, nearly-new professional attire” to<br />

NZ women entering or re-entering the<br />

workforce.<br />

When it holds pop-up stores (as<br />

After<br />

recently in Rolleston), that income<br />

supports the wraparound coaching<br />

and work-preparation services. Drop<br />

clothing to any Maxwells Dry Cleaning in<br />

Christchurch.<br />

Op shops directly support local<br />

communities. Only donate clean clothing<br />

of a standard that you would feel<br />

comfortable giving to a friend.<br />

No matter how you move your clothing<br />

on, focus on the goal: a fabulously<br />

decluttered wardrobe that makes you feel<br />

good about your clothing choices again!<br />

Everything except building the house<br />

What can The Outdoor Space do for<br />

your property? According to owner,<br />

Aaron Bartlett, it’s “Everything except<br />

building the house”. And he’s not<br />

wrong…<br />

Landscape design, paving, concrete,<br />

irrigation, new lawns, planting, fences,<br />

water features, decks, outdoor kitchens,<br />

pergolas with covered roofs and roll<br />

down blinds, screening fences to block<br />

out wind, outdoor fires, and more…<br />

Then there’s the full range of garden<br />

maintenance services, from pruning<br />

to weeding to regular mowing, at the<br />

frequency that suits you.<br />

“Whatever your dream is we can build<br />

it. How about a pizza oven or perhaps an<br />

outdoor bar complete with bar stools?<br />

We love new challenges and we do all the<br />

work ourselves so you are guaranteed a<br />

top quality result”, says Aaron.<br />

As just one example, visitors are<br />

welcome by appointment to The Outdoor<br />

Space Rolleston premises to check out<br />

the outdoor bar “The Rusty Lid” – until<br />

it gets snapped up, of course! Aaron and<br />

the team will happily create a bespoke,<br />

custom built version for you.<br />

Raised vegetable gardens are also a<br />

popular option with many homeowners.<br />

If you’ve got spring vege planting in<br />

your sights, there’s a range of planter<br />

construction materials to choose from<br />

to best complement your garden. These<br />

include macrocarpa sleepers, old railway<br />

sleepers, pine… The Outdoor Space can<br />

build a kitset for you to put together<br />

yourself, or go the whole hog and provide<br />

a raised bed fully installed and complete<br />

with soil and compost.<br />

Likewise, garden sheds can be built<br />

to any dimension and options include<br />

corrugated iron or wooden exterior<br />

with a timber frame, lined with plywood<br />

if required or a brick or block shed to<br />

match the house.<br />

Pick the brains of the expert staff about<br />

new plantings. The team will discuss<br />

options with you and then bring the<br />

plants to site and place them out so that<br />

you can see exactly what is proposed.<br />

Once you’re happy, they’ll get on with<br />

the planting. All plants are sourced<br />

from local nurseries, with some grown<br />

inhouse.<br />

Quality landscaping services take time to design, plan<br />

and implement. Use this winter to get a head start –<br />

Visualise what’s<br />

possible in the<br />

elegance of winter<br />

In the elegance of winter, your garden’s<br />

true form is revealed. The structure and<br />

shape of deciduous trees are clearly visible,<br />

last season’s foliage is cleared away, and<br />

bustling re-growth does not yet hide your<br />

garden’s lines. In other words, you have<br />

a clear slate to be able to visualise what’s<br />

possible and begin to make plans.<br />

Sharon of Sharon Crofts Landscape<br />

Design says the clarity that comes with<br />

winter portrays the garden structure and<br />

an on-site consultation with her clients<br />

allows better visualisation for improved<br />

garden design and layout. Even if clients<br />

are planning a new build, Sharon can<br />

assess the winter/summer sun and wind<br />

aspects on site while discussing the client’s<br />

landscape design aspirations. “I encourage<br />

my clients to contact me now, because in<br />

winter we can look at the garden together<br />

and plan for the busier landscaping<br />

months ahead.”<br />

Following on from the consultation,<br />

Sharon will produce a design concept and<br />

a planting schedule to create a garden<br />

that’s unique to you and your lifestyle.<br />

Working to a landscape plan is the best<br />

guarantee of success: plantings will be<br />

placed in conditions where they will<br />

thrive, and the aesthetics and usability of<br />

Wednesday <strong>July</strong> <strong>24</strong> 20<strong>24</strong> <strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong> 21<br />

your garden space will be maximised to<br />

meet your personal preferences.<br />

And the best aspect of planning this now<br />

is that the work can be well underway by<br />

spring.<br />

When you call on a professional<br />

designer, you’re accessing their experience,<br />

design flair, and knowledge and<br />

connections. Those who live and breathe<br />

this work every day often have design and<br />

planting ideas or innovative landscape<br />

options that the home gardener hadn’t<br />

considered. Sharon has been sharing her<br />

expertise with <strong>Selwyn</strong> and Christchurch<br />

residents for over 30 years, so has a deep<br />

understanding of local weather, soil and<br />

planting conditions.<br />

Homeowners have the option of<br />

implementing the plan to fruition<br />

themselves, or alternatively, Sharon can<br />

recommend contractors from her trusted<br />

network who will come to the property<br />

and offer quotes for the work.<br />

So, use this winter-time to indulge in<br />

the pleasure of planning ahead. Contact<br />

Sharon Crofts Landscape Design for a<br />

consultation, prompt service, a garden<br />

design to suit your individual tastes and<br />

requirements and all the practical helps<br />

and supports you require.<br />

HOME PROFESSIONALS<br />

Quality gates made here in Rolleston<br />

In its 21st year of operation, Town<br />

and Country Gates is thrilled to now be<br />

fully operational from its purpose-built<br />

workshop in Rolleston Izone. It’s testament<br />

to this family business’s ongoing success<br />

that this expansion became a necessity,<br />

and they are now better equipped than<br />

ever to supply stunning gates and fences to<br />

properties across Canterbury.<br />

A particular specialism of the company<br />

is to design and manufacture quality<br />

aluminium gates, powdercoated to your<br />

choice of colour and finish. These gates<br />

can range in size from driveway to garden<br />

gate to poolside. An amazing selection of<br />

styles is available, from ornate to simple<br />

to traditional to classic to modern. They<br />

will even custom design a gate to your<br />

personal specifications and tastes.<br />

Town and Country Gates also offers a<br />

beautiful selection of gates and fences in<br />

steel and timber, including aluminium<br />

gates with wood infill. Styles include<br />

louvred, slat and open rail.<br />

Check out the beautiful photos on its<br />

website to marvel at just how many types<br />

of style are available. While you’re there,<br />

have a play with the “Gate Visualiser” tool,<br />

where you can pick a style then select from<br />

the attractive range of colours!<br />

Installation is also an essential part of<br />

the service, and can be designed to meet<br />

your needs. Perhaps you have a priority<br />

on privacy, or on security. Or perhaps<br />

the area to be gated is at a tricky size or<br />

angle. Installation options include sliding,<br />

cantilever, bi-fold, automated, keypads or<br />

lock latches, and security audio and video<br />

intercoms.<br />

Not only providing new, Town and<br />

Country Gates is a one-stop shop for all<br />

things gate, whether they installed it or<br />

not. Repairs and welding needed? No<br />

problem. Already like your gates but want<br />

them automated? Automation systems<br />

can be fitted retrospectively, just ask the<br />

experts.<br />

Call Sue or Neville to discuss your ideas.<br />

You’ll get a friendly, family-style welcome,<br />

and the team will visit you for a free, no<br />

obligation measure and quote.<br />

You’ll soon see how this company has<br />

become so trusted and successful.<br />

“He was a noyed about something<br />

A DARFIELD farmer has<br />

spoken of watching a man leap into<br />

the flooded Hawkins River to try and<br />

save himself after a helicopter winch<br />

rescue operation failed.<br />

Rod May had taken his tractor to<br />

the scene on Greendale Rd, to try and<br />

reach the middle-aged man who had<br />

been clinging to the branches of a tree<br />

in the rising waters on Sunday night.<br />

The man had driven into the<br />

flooded river, escaped from his car<br />

and ca led emergency services from<br />

his ce lphone which he managed to<br />

keep with him.<br />

Ultimately, a second helicopter<br />

winch operation plucked the man<br />

to safety after he was swept downstream.<br />

It was a happy ending to the<br />

ordeal which had lasted more than<br />

three hours. The rescue was among<br />

several in Canterbury on Sunday in<br />

flooded rivers.<br />

May said he and his family had just<br />

had dinner when a neighbour alerted<br />

them. Arriving about 8.50pm, he saw<br />

the floodwaters were too high for the<br />

tractor, however, he used its lights for<br />

i luminating the site where the man<br />

was. • Turn to page 5<br />

THE OWNER of the<br />

Prebbleton Dairy targeted<br />

four times by youth believes a<br />

family group conference was a<br />

waste of time.<br />

The meeting involved one<br />

of the teens, a 13-year-old,<br />

his family, Oranga Tamariki,<br />

police and four other victims,<br />

including another dairy<br />

owner.<br />

Facilitated by Oranga<br />

Tamariki, youth justice family<br />

group conferences are<br />

intended to help youth take<br />

responsibility and leave them<br />

with a plan for the future.<br />

While the victims could<br />

speak a the meeting, Sangeet<br />

Mehta said the decision had<br />

already been made as to what<br />

would happen with the youth.<br />

Money<br />

taken<br />

after big<br />

pokie win<br />

• By Ba ry Clarke<br />

A BAR patron who won $1200<br />

on the pokies may have been<br />

targeted by thieves moments after<br />

she co lected the money.<br />

A group of men who were in<br />

the bar a the same time are the<br />

focus of police inquiries. It is<br />

believed they watched her being<br />

paid, and then quickly swooped.<br />

The incident happened at The<br />

Famous Grouse Hotel in Lincoln<br />

two weeks ago.<br />

After she was paid out a the<br />

bar, the men who had been<br />

si ting nearby went over and<br />

congratulated her. While she was<br />

distracted the money disappeared<br />

from her handbag. She only<br />

realised it was gone after she left<br />

the hotel.<br />

Police have taken CCTV<br />

security camera footage from the<br />

hotel which shows the men going<br />

over to the woman and mobbing<br />

her in a congratulatory way. The<br />

footage also captures a hand from<br />

one of the men going towards the<br />

bag.<br />

Police say they may have<br />

identified one of the group but<br />

aren’t saying anymore about<br />

the incident. The <strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong><br />

understands the men are from<br />

the Amberley area.<br />

This approach of growing<br />

certain plants for the benefit of<br />

around for centuries.<br />

And marigolds are probably the<br />

most famous companion plant<br />

Marigolds are said to deter<br />

While SPCA has tried for years to work with the<br />

greyhound industry to improve greyhound welfare,<br />

the organisation says the industry has been unable to<br />

adequately address its animal welfare problems.<br />

The animal welfare group believes it is clear the<br />

greyhound industry cannot meet its animal welfare<br />

obligations and is no longer acceptable in New Zealand<br />

society. A recent survey carried out by an independent<br />

research company on behalf of SPCA reports that<br />

74% of New Zealanders would vote to ban greyhound<br />

racing in a referendum.<br />

SPRING IS a time when it’s<br />

desirable to be working is the<br />

garden.<br />

However, there are hidden<br />

dangers and one of those is<br />

developing legionnaires’ disease.<br />

Here are some guidelines to<br />

avoid that happening<br />

•Minimise the amount of dust<br />

present when working in the<br />

garden.<br />

• Water gardens and indoor<br />

plants using a gentle spray.<br />

• Read the warning label on<br />

bagged composts or po ting mix.<br />

• Wear gloves.<br />

• Wear a mask so that any dust<br />

is filtered out before you can<br />

breathe it in.<br />

• Dampen po ting mixes before<br />

use.<br />

• Open bags of soil products<br />

slowly, away from the face.<br />

• Make sure the working area<br />

(for example, the glasshouse or<br />

po ting shed) is we l ventilated.<br />

• See a doctor if you develop a<br />

flu-like i lness that seems to be<br />

worsening.<br />

• Wash hands thoroughly<br />

after gardening or handling soil<br />

products.<br />

These are simple, easy and<br />

natural steps that a l gardeners<br />

can take to reduce risk while<br />

continuing to enjoy their garden.<br />

Home heating –<br />

electricity, gas or wood?<br />

How you heat your home depends on a<br />

number of factors. Figuring out the best<br />

way to heat your home continues to be a<br />

matter for debate.<br />

Several things are undisputed. A<br />

warm, dry home is essential for<br />

comfort and good health, good<br />

insulation dramatically increases<br />

the efficiency of any heating<br />

system and ventilation is an<br />

important consideration.<br />

Most homes are<br />

heated by electricity,<br />

gas, or wood. In<br />

New Zealand,<br />

heating accounts<br />

for approximately<br />

30 percent of a<br />

home’s annual energy<br />

consumption. There are many<br />

things you can do to reduce<br />

consumption and cost.<br />

The World Health Organisation<br />

recommends a temperature of 18 deg C<br />

for indoor living areas, and slightly less for<br />

bedrooms. It recommends slightly higher<br />

temperatures for vulnerable people – the<br />

elderly and small children. Studies have<br />

shown that indoor temperatures below 12<br />

degrees can disrupt sleep.<br />

Among all these considerations, how<br />

you heat your home is a matter of personal<br />

choice, with many options available.<br />

Heat pumps are generally the most<br />

common and cost-effective form of home<br />

heating in New Zealand. Used properly,<br />

they heat quickly and are convenient.<br />

However, you need to have the right sized<br />

unit for the area and they don’t work when<br />

electricity is not available. They tend to be<br />

room-specific but ducted heat pumps are<br />

becoming more popular and are costeffective,<br />

especially in new builds, but can<br />

also be installed into established homes.<br />

Modern wood burners may be the<br />

closest you can get to an open-fire feel, but<br />

are much more efficient. Wood is generally<br />

a renewable fuel, and if you have a cheap<br />

or free supply, a wood burner may be<br />

the least expensive heating option. They<br />

heat large areas and are not dependent<br />

on electricity but there is the chopping<br />

and stacking to be done, flues need to be<br />

cleaned regularly and older models can<br />

contribute to air pollution and may violate<br />

strict air quality regulations – www.mfe.<br />

govt.nz has detailed information regarding<br />

this.<br />

Pellet fires are typically more efficient<br />

than wood burners but can have a smaller<br />

output. They require electricity but<br />

some have a battery backup and they are<br />

thermostatically controlled with timers.<br />

These must comply with regulations which<br />

are also detailed on the Ministry for the<br />

Environment website.<br />

Gas heating is common and convenient.<br />

Central heating systems can be zone<br />

controlled and provide warm air<br />

circulation. Flued gas heaters are best, as<br />

unflued and portable gas heaters produce<br />

lots of moisture and emit pollutants that<br />

can be unsafe. Flued gas heating systems<br />

can be installed in most homes. They are<br />

fast heating and are relatively inexpensive<br />

to run. However gas is not a renewable<br />

resource and prices can vary widely.<br />

The greatest source of energy is actually<br />

free. Harnessing the sun can dramatically<br />

reduce heating costs and is the most<br />

environmentally friendly way to heat your<br />

home. Passive heating combines insulation<br />

with good design, accomplished more<br />

effectively in new builds but also able to be<br />

incorporated into existing homes.<br />

Getting the sun’s warmth into your<br />

home is a function of the design; keeping<br />

it in is a function of the insulation. There<br />

is a wealth of information online as passive<br />

heating becomes normative in the design<br />

and building industry.<br />

Websites such as energywise.govt.<br />

nz and smarterhomes.org.nz have<br />

comprehensive information on and tips<br />

for, heating your home in the colder<br />

months.<br />

Selling your home?<br />

Potential buyers are likely to be<br />

living in your neighbourhood, it’s<br />

an area that they already love<br />

and are actively seeking to stay<br />

in. That’s why it makes sense to<br />

advertise your property in the<br />

Your guide to all things Real Estate<br />

in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> District<br />

Preparation for moving in<br />

Congratulations! You’re all set to move<br />

into your new home, and now it’s time<br />

to start the packing and shifting process.<br />

To make the transition easier, reduce the<br />

stress with the following tips.<br />

Before packing, it’s a great time to take<br />

stock of your furniture and belongings.<br />

Assessing what needs to be moved,<br />

donated, or sold helps reduce clutter and<br />

makes packing more manageable. Sort<br />

items on how fragile they are and their<br />

size to determine appropriate packing<br />

materials. You can often find suitable<br />

packing boxes and wrapping being given<br />

away on social media; always get more<br />

than you think you will need. Also, have a<br />

supply of sturdy tape, sharp scissors, and<br />

marker pens.<br />

Packing materials<br />

Use packing materials to prevent<br />

damage to your items. Choose sturdy<br />

cardboard boxes that aren’t too large<br />

and bulky, bubble wrap, packing tape,<br />

and furniture blankets to protect items<br />

from scratches and impacts. You can use<br />

foam/polystyrene packaging, corrugated<br />

cardboard, bubble wrap, or linen for<br />

fragile pieces.<br />

Packing<br />

Start packing things you won’t need right<br />

away to avoid a last-minute rush and<br />

stress. Pack items in layers with plenty of<br />

cushioning in between, with space at the<br />

top for more cushioning. Try to keep like<br />

with like items together. Don’t be tempted<br />

to overfill a box. Use furniture blankets,<br />

old blankets, towels, or packing material,<br />

but make sure any items with glass are<br />

bubble-wrapped or safely wrapped in<br />

linen. If possible, disassemble large<br />

furniture, making it easier to handle and<br />

transport. Bag up and label all screws and<br />

bolts removed for when you reassemble<br />

the furniture.<br />

Organisation<br />

Clearly label all boxes with the contents<br />

and the room they belong to. Keep an<br />

inventory of all packed items to save time<br />

and confusion when unpacking. Leave<br />

cords attached to electronics, or take<br />

photos of where cords are plugged in to<br />

make it easier to set up when you arrive.<br />

Use moving blankets to protect from<br />

damage, dust, and dirt.<br />

Choose a space out of the way to put the<br />

boxes you’ve completed packing. Use a<br />

moving trolley to move heavier items and<br />

avoid injury. Clean empty cupboards and<br />

LOOKING FOR DESIGN INSPIRATION?<br />

Visit one of our stunning showhomes to gather ideas for your dream home<br />

dust surfaces, and vacuum the area as you<br />

finish packing.<br />

Professional Assistance<br />

Sometimes, the thought of packing<br />

and moving seems too daunting. Using<br />

professional movers can be a solution.<br />

Decide which company meets your needs<br />

(whether a comprehensive service or just<br />

transportation) and, if possible, check<br />

reviews to ensure their reliability and<br />

reputation.<br />

By being fully prepared for the moving<br />

process, you can relax knowing your<br />

belongings will be transported safely and<br />

ready to unpack at your new home.<br />
