Wife’s death drives husband
to hold charity tournament
• By Geoff Sloan
BARRIE COLEMAN lost his
wife Megan suddenly two years
ago after she struggled with her
mental health.
The Weedons man
was behind a charity golf
tournament held in her honour
to raise awareness about mental
health conditions.
About 100 golfers
teed off in the Gumboot
Friday tournament at the
Weedons Country Club on
McClelland Rd.
It was the second
tournament Coleman has
organised for the cause.
Megan was struggling with
her mental health for a while
before she died and found it
hard to find professional help.
“We’ve been frustrated over
the years about what she’s gone
through,” Coleman said.
The money raised from the
tournament will go to the I Am
Hope Foundation, which aims
to normalise conversations
about mental health through
campaigns like Gumboot
Friday.

Big rise in
fines for
illegal
parking,
no regos,
warrants
• By Daniel Alvey
JUST OVER 2000 fines were
issued by council parking
wardens during the last year.
From October 1 last year to
September 30 the council issued
2070 infringement notices
amounting to $199,528.
That is more than 11 times the
number of tickets handed out
during the previous 12 months –
181 notices totalling $13,700.
The council introduced a
dedicated parking officer role for
the first time in September last
year.
The council issued more tickets
for parking on grass berms than
any other infringements, with
797 fines.
This was followed by tickets
for incorrect kerb parking (331),
no warrant of fitness (285), no
registration (236), and parking
on the footpath (205).
The cost of the fines ranged
from $20 up to $600, depending
on the type of offence.

A NEW ABATEMENT notice
has been issued for a car
wrecking yard operating on
rural land.
The council first issued an
abatement notice for 205 Curries
Rd, Springston South, in April
last year. It had a March 31 compliance
date.
Now, six months after the first
notice expired, the council has
issued a second.
Said council head of regulatory
Sue Atherton: “The new
abatement notices have a final
compliance date of 13 January
2025 and the compliance team
continues to work with the property
owner to ensure compliance
is achieved.”
Neither the council nor Lawton
and Liz Giltrap who operate
the car wrecking business, Giltrap
Spares Ltd, would discuss
the abatement notice.
“We will not be disclosing the
specifics of the abatements as
this is an active investigation,”
Atherton said.
The council would only say it
was issued for non-compliance
with the District Plan. The land
on which the wrecking business
operates is zoned rural.
The Giltraps did not respond
to calls from Selwyn Times.
The new abatement notice
came after people living near
the property went to Selwyn MP
Nicola Grigg for assistance.
While she did contact the
council about the situation,
neither her office nor the council
would say what the response was.
In May, Lawton Giltrap was

into the farming operation at 205
Curries Rd.
He pleaded guilty to using land
in a manner that contravened
the Canterbury Land and Water
Regional Plan.
Giltrap had allowed stock unrestricted
access to farm drains
on the Curries Rd property resulting
in pugging, devegetation
and exposed bare earth in the
bed of a river within the Selwyn
Te Waihora sub-region.
He also pleaded guilty to
permitting the discharge of dairy
effluent from a cow onto land
which may have resulted in that
contaminant entering the water
downstream into the L II River
and subsequently Te Waihora

In Brief
TEMPORARY CLOSURE
OF BAR FOR SELLING
ALCOHOL TO MINORS
The Flaming Rabbit in Lincoln
had to close over the weekend
after it was caught serving alcohol
to minors. The two-day closure
followed a controlled purchase
operation conducted by police on
August 24 during which alcohol
was sold to a person under age.
Along with the closure, managers
Gagandeep Kaur Sidhu and
Nishita Ashleen Singh had their
manager’s certificates suspended
for 28 days. Their suspensions run
consecutively from October 21-
December 15.
PUBLIC CONSULTATION
FOR LINCOLN SOUTH
It was reported in the October
14 issue of Selwyn Times that
400 sections were added to
the Earlsbrook subdivision
(Lincoln South) without public
consultation. The council says
this was incorrect. The impacts of
the Government’s requirements
for medium residential zones
in Rolleston, Lincoln and
Prebbleton went through a full
public consultation process. This
included discussions of the impact
on the development at a councilrun
public meeting in Lincoln
in August 2022 and full public
hearings chaired by independent
hearing commissioners in June
2023. Selwyn Times apologises for

Street parking on chopping block as
part of Lincoln’s new look main street
• By Daniel Alvey
THE END OF motorists playing
dodgems on Lincoln’s main
street is on the horizon.
Vehicles backing out of the
angled parking in the shopping
area and then negotiating their
way onto Gerald St is getting
worse as the town grows.
As part of the four-stage $47
million upgrade, the parks will
be removed, making way for
pedestrian plazas and cycleways
on both sides of Gerald St.
The speed limit on Gerald St
from the Liffey Stream to West
Belt will reduce from 50km/h to
30km/h.
The four stages are expected to
be completed by 2033.
The street will lose about 80
car parks; the angled parking
and on street parking on both
sides of Gerald St from Kildare
Tce to Springs Rd.
The council recently purchased
11a and 11 Gerald St which it
will turn into car parks. It also
has land between William and
Lyttelton Sts, near The Famous
Grouse Hotel, which will also
become car parks.
The parking areas will have a
total of 106 parks. Construction

Springs Ward councillor Grant

volumes was the reason the car
parks were going to be removed.
He said there are about 6000
vehicle movements a day on
Gerald St and it is projected to
increase up to 16,000 by 2040.
“There’s no point coming and
doing a renovation of a town

that you have to come back

The residents association and
Lincoln Voice are concerned
about the lack of recent consultation.
While the plan went
through extensive consultation
in 2016, including a hearings
process, apart from mentions in
long term plans there had been
little talk about it until last week.
Miller said the council would
be taking on the feedback and
would look into how it can incorporate
it.

CORDE HAS become the principal
naming sponsor for Canterbury’s iconic

Construction general manager Andrew
Loader said CORDE was “really proud” to
support the event.
“We’re all about trusted connections
with our communities. Our work on
infrastructure and the City2Surf both
help connect and bring our communities
together,” he said.
CORDE constructs, maintains and
operates key infrastructure on behalf of its
clients throughout the South Island.
The company has been constructing the
City to Sea Pathway West, on behalf of the
city council, which the City2Surf course
will follow.
Extending from Fitzgerald Ave to Kerrs
Rd, the project is phase one of the 11km
City to Sea Pathway. Phases two and three
will continue along the Avon River to
Pages Rd in New Brighton.
“The City2Surf is in excellent alignment
with CORDE’s values of strengthening
communities through infrastructure,” said
Loader.
CORDE had been looking for ways to
promote the new pathway to the public, he
said.
“This is a real opportunity to expose
communities to the pathway, especially
through such a family-friendly event.”
Star Media regional manager Steve
McCaughan was grateful for CORDE’s
support.

AN EARLY CHRISTMAS present will
soon be up-and-running for Hororata
residents.
The council is nearing completion of
a 500 cubic metre water storage tank to
alleviate drinking water supply issues
during rain events.
Currently, almost any extended period
of rain causes the council to place the
township on conserve
water notices due to
contamination in the
Selwyn River where the
supply is drawn from.
This was the case last
weekend when water was
not restored for about five
days.
The council advises
people to store about three
Sarah
Barrett
days’ of water and also sends a tank to the
township to assist with the water shortages.
Hororata Village Bar and Café co-owner
Sarah Barrett said the regular notices are
frustrating.
“If it rains any more than 10ml, then we
are looking at conserving water,” she said.
“It’s ongoing, it’s annoying, it makes
running our business harder.”
Barrett said they have been getting water
transported in to keep the café running
during restriction periods.
SOLUTION: A 500 cubic metre water storage tank is under construction
and will be completed before Christmas.
A council spokesperson said the
construction and commissioning of the
additional water storage reservoir is almost
complete and it will be in service before
Christmas.
“This will mean more water can be
stored, so when water cannot be drawn
from the river during heavy rain events,
there is more water available to reduce the
amount of time conserve water notices are
needed,” the spokesperson said.
“This is the first stage of long-term
upgrades to the supply over the next three
years and it will ultimately be connected to
the Malvern Hills Hartleys water supply,
which has more consistent water quality
requiring fewer water notices.”

Legal Matters
A reasonable person is entitled
to rely on an express warranty.
A recent court decision is a
reminder of the importance of
doing your due diligence when
buying or selling a property..
The case concerned a Christchurch
property that had historically had
weathertightness issues. The Vendor
provided a pre-auction pack containing
various reports with information on
the weathertightness and repairs.
The repairs to these weathertightness
issues required a building consent
which should have been obtained by
the Vendor but wasn’t. Nine years after
settlement a claim was brought by
the Purchaser against the Vendor for
breach of warranty and damages to
cover repair costs to the property.
The standard Agreement for Sale
and Purchase of Real Estate, used
for almost all properties, includes a
warranty that if the Vendor had done,
or caused to be permitted to be done,
any work on the property then any
building consent required for that
work was obtained; and that, to their
knowledge, the works were completed
in compliance with such building
consent and, where appropriate, a
Code Compliance Certificate issued.
The importance of undertaking
thorough due diligence prior to
going unconditional with an offer is
well-heeded advice. However, the
abovementioned case has highlighted
just how careful a vendor also needs
to be when signing a contract which
includes the standard
vendor warranties.
Putting the timing of the claim to one
side for now, the Vendor, amongst
other things, argued that the enquiries
the Purchaser should have made
(including obtaining an updated LIM)
would have led the Purchaser to
discover no building consent had been
obtained for the works. In addition, the
Vendor claimed that the Information
Pack she provided to the Purchaser
contained sufficient evidence so that
the Purchaser knew, or ought to have
known, there was no building consent
obtained. The Court held that this did
not give the Vendor the defence she
claimed. The standard warranty was
a statement made by the Vendor on
which the Purchaser was entitled to
rely. If the Vendor had not intended
the Purchaser to be able to rely on the
warranty, the obligation was on the
Vendor to delete the warranty from
the Agreement before it was signed.

due diligence for clients acquiring

thorough due diligence for Vendors

Tournament raises more
than $40,000 for charity
• From page 1
Said Coleman: “The Government doesn’t
put any resources into it, so they need
money and I Am Hope is a good cause for
counsellors, so we thought we’d do this
day and give the money to them.”
Thirty volunteers helped with the
tournament, which was one of many held
on Gumboot Friday to support people with
mental health issues.
The inaugural event last year raised
$37,000 for the cause, but more than
$40,000 was gathered at the latest
tournament.
Coleman now has even bigger
fundraising plans in the pipeline.
“In March next year, I’m going away to
play every golf course in New Zealand for
charity.
“There’s 417 golf courses, so I’ve taken a
year and a-half off work.

Project aims to keep
village’s lights on in
case of emergency
• By Daniel Alvey
THREE HOMEOWNERS from Castle
Hill Village are leading a project to make
the settlement self-sufficient in case power
is knocked out.
Kate Hodgins, Dave Laurie and Helena
Parsons had their project accepted as
part of the Community Energy Activator
pilot run by Orion, Ara Ake, and the
Community Energy Network.
Hodgins said self-sufficiency was something
she had been thinking about before
the activator program was launched earlier
this year.
“I went along to the activator to see what
they were looking to do and then put it
out to the community to see if anyone else
would be interested as well and that’s when
Helena and Dave put their hands up.”
The village is home to about 13 residents
but has 200 homes, mostly used as holiday
accommodation.
It is also a key civil defence hub for the
wider Craigieburn Valley in the event a
severe storm or natural disaster cutting off
the area.

He plans to hold the annual golf
tournament again next year.
The group is looking at a combination
of solar power from people’s homes plus
community solar panels providing power
to a battery which could be used when
electricity is cut to the village.
Hodgins said residents generally used
diesel generators to provide power, with
about five homes currently fitted with
solar panels.
The group said the self-sufficiency plan
would not only increase the resilience of
the village, but also its sustainability.
Hodgins said the project was supported
by most residents when they ran a survey
in the village, with 90 per cent of the 72
respondents supporting the idea.
She said the next steps for the group
involved investigating the feasibility of
the solar power model.
“So, looking at any potential funding
models, potential technological options
and pulling our stakeholders together.”
The group presented its solar idea to
councillors last month. Council staff are
considering its involvement in the project
and will report back at its next meeting.

Hundreds rock’n’roll at Lincoln Event Centre
Over the recent long weekend, Lincoln
Event Centre was packed with 630 people
attending the 2024 Senior Rock’n’Roll
Dance Nationals competition.
Dancers and supporters from 20 Rock’n’Roll
dance clubs across New Zealand, as far north
as Whāngarei, and as far south as Invercargill
took the stage to compete in a range of different
categories and connect with one another, sharing
their passion for rock’n’roll and dancing.
Holding events like this in post-Covid times
has become increasingly tricky financially. The
Christchurch Rock’n’Roll Club ensured the event
was financially viable with a contribution from the
Council’s Selwyn Community Fund.
The fund supports groups and organisations that
contribute to community wellbeing. The fund is
available for not-for-profit community groups that
are looking to run a project, event, or initiative in
the Selwyn district.
Club president, Robin Sutton says the event
was an outstanding success and a whole team
effort made it possible.
“It was the best senior national’s competition since
it was last hosted at Lincoln Event Centre in 2019
We have an amazing team that made it all happen.
We have also previously hosted the Junior National
competitions at Lincoln Event Centre in 2013
and 2015. It’s the perfect venue for holding our
rock’n’roll championships. It is always fabulous to
bring together such a range of dancers who always
engage in a state of both hard-fought competition
and fellowship.”

Desired pedestrian crossing
well down the priority list
NEWS 13
• By Daniel Alvey
BEN THOMPSON wants a
pedestrian crossing on a busy road
so his family can cross safely.
But he and other residents of
Verdeco Park in Lincoln could be
waiting a while.
The council says a pedestrian
crossing for Springs Rd, near
Lincoln University, is No 30 on a
priority list of 37.
Thompson is set to meet with
Mayor Sam Broughton and
council chief executive Sharon
Mason on November 18 to
advocate for the crossing.
Thompson said it was
“ridiculous” the crossing was so
far down the list.
“Are they (council) going to
wait until someone’s child is
killed,” he said.
Thompson said his family
cross the road regularly to go to
Te Whāriki playground.
He said he had support from
other neighbours.
“Everyone feels unsafe to cross
that road.”
Thompson regularly sees
motorists speeding along the
road, and has had to stop cars to
allow his children to cross.
“I saw this lady driving down
probably doing about 80km/h,
so I stood in the road and did the
stop sign and she slowed down
and gave me the shrug of the
shoulders.”
Council head of operational
delivery Gareth Morgan said the
priority for pedestrian crossings
is based on risk.
“The order of when these are
to be completed is done on a
safety basis and crossings are
completed in order of the highest
risk first as budget is available.
“This process must be applied
fairly and evenly across all
requests to ensure those at the
highest risk are addressed first as
budget is available.”
UNSAFE: Lincoln resident
Ben Thompson wants a
pedestrian crossing added
to Springs Rd so his family
and others can cross safely
to ​Te Whāriki playground.
Thompson and other Verdeco
Park residents have contacted
Selwyn MP Nicola Grigg over
the issue.
She told Selwyn Times she was
“pleased Selwyn District Council
is addressing the concerns.” But
she said it was “ultimately” the
council’s decision as to how it
prioritises projects.
“As the MP for Selwyn, I
remain committed to supporting
constituents to ensure their
concerns about infrastructure
and safety are addressed as
promptly and effectively as
possible,” Grigg said.
A blip then a bang
RESIDENTS STILL enjoyed
the Selwyn Fireworks
Spectacular at the weekend,
after it was postponed a day.
About 6000 people attended
the event at Foster Park on
Sunday.
Originally meant to be held
on Saturday, it was postponed
at 5.30pm that day due to the
heavy rain forecast.
It is the second time the
display has been postponed in
its 25-year history. The first was
in the ‘90s.
Selwyn Fireworks Spectacular
Charitable Trust president
Chris O’Brien said the decision
was made to postpone rather
than cancel the event so the 30
non-profit groups in attendance
could still fundraise.
“Coming back the next day
with a lot better weather, they
were able to really achieve
some much better results
than if we had carried on (on
Saturday).
“And that’s the whole point
of it, for them to make money.
And to supply and display
for the community, but really
just to help those community
groups.”

THE FIRST stage of the upgrade
to Levi Rd (Rolleston) has just
been completed. I think it would
be fair to say most residents
and road users are disappointed
with the result. There was
an expectation it would be
upgraded to the same level as the
recent upgrade of Hoskyns Rd,
and many other busy roads in
other towns in the district.
The next stage of development
is the installation of traffic
lights and road frontage of the
Pak’nSave currently under construction.
The council claims the
planned upgrades were formalised
from input from residents,
road users and the council.
The first we as residents knew
of the proposed plan was when
we were invited to a meeting on
June 13. The original plan had a
traffic island in front of the three
residential properties closest to
the intersection, which would
restrict those properties to left
turning access on and off those
properties. The traffic island is
to allow Pak’nSave a fourth exit
from its car park.
Just prior to this meeting
affected residents received a
mail drop from Foodstuffs with
contact details saying they would
like to be “good neighbours”. In
making contact with Foodstuffs,
questioning a fourth exit to
their car park at the expense
of uninhibited access to three
properties, we were to learn the
exit already had a consent.
After some robust discussion
with the council it has come
back with a revised plan and
incorporated a level concrete
crossing to allow those three
properties the same level of
access they have had for the
last 15 years. There is concern
the width of the concrete level
crossing being less than a metre

Road upgrade should’ve put residents first
PROTEST: A sign outside Alan and Joy Haylock’s home in June, one of three properties
that lost right-turn access in the initial Levi Rd upgrade plan. The plan has since been
revised to include right-hand turns but Alan Haylock says the space may not be wide
enough, and residents are disappointed by the process to date. PHOTO: DANIEL ALVEY
is not wide enough for residents
to pull out of the traffic lane for
a right-hand turn onto their
properties.
The council says it does not
have the room for a standard
median strip. When we
suggested using a small portion
of the land adjacent to the corner
of Lincoln Rolleston Rd and
Levi Rd, which is to be planted
in trees, we were told a resource
consent would be required to
gain enough land to widen the
new layout for a safer better
flowing intersection.
One would have thought the
change in the zoning of the land
on which FoodStuffs is doing its
development would require that
development to work around existing
residents, not the residents
having to be disadvantaged to
accommodate them.
If the council thinks communicating
with the residents after
the plan had been signed off,
then democracy has fallen to an
all-time low in this district.

Lyall comments
Deputy mayor Malcolm Lyall
needs to accept he has failed
despite his blatantly biased attempt
to get rid of the Malvern
Community Board in the article
‘Lyall standing firm’ in last
week’s edition.
He should now show some
leadership in ensuring the
current board, which is
functioning effectively and has
widespread community support,
is given some real power to act
by council.

System switch sees soil, productivity gains
• By Cosmo Kentish-Barnes
JOHN LEGG’S regenerative
farming journey has been a big
learning curve but the dairy
farmer says the gains have been
steady.
RNZ’s Country Life first visited
his 180ha property near Lake
Ellesmere five years ago and
returned recently to find out how
things have been going.
Test results have shown a
big improvement in the soil’s
potassium levels.
“With a lower stocking density
and multiple shifts, it’s shifted
that potassium to a level where we
don’t have to apply it anymore,”
he said.
Legg said he was still applying
synthetic fertilisers but less
frequently and in much lower
quantities than before.
He had some words of advice
for other farmers.
“You want to be less reliant
on it. Make sure that you’ve got
species like your red clovers and
white clover, and that’s fixing the
nitrogen for you.”
Milk production at the Legg
family farm is on the rise.
This season, Legg is trying to hit
5000 litres a day.
For his 197 Ayrshire cows, that
equates to about 24 litres per cow
each day.
Thanks to a balanced diet and
high body condition scores, empty
FUTURE: John Legg hopes regenerative farming will boost
output from his 197 Ayshire cows to 5000 litres a day,

rates in cows are improving and
somatic cell counts, the concentration
of white blood cells present
in the milk, are sitting at 60.
A high count indicates a high
level of mastitisin the herd.
“You want to keep it under
around 150,” he said.
“That’s the standard. You get
graded on your milk so if you can
get it under 150 you get paid a
higher premium. This is through
Fonterra.”
Legg said the regenerative
system he embraced aligned
well with Farm Environment
Plans, audited by Environment
Canterbury.
The audits show good management
practices are being
achieved.
Farmers who are able to
achieve an A or B grade benefit
by having more time before
their next audit is due.
“In our last audit, we got an A.
So with an A, I think it’s three
years before you need to get
audited again.”
Achieving a high grade can
mean less paperwork, fewer
costs, less stress and more
time to focus on best-practice
farming.
“It’s a bit of pressure off, you
know, like mentally making
sure you’ve got all your boxes
ticked and that.”
As well as changing his farming
system, Legg has also been
planting natives across the farm.
The main beneficiary is
Birdlings Brook, a waterway
that flows past his paddocks
towards Harts Creek.
He said the natives are thriving
and have formed a travel
corridor for birds and insects.
He saw a kererū near the creek
for the first time recently.
“That’s been planted right
down to the end of the Blind Rd.
“The Ellesmere Sustainable
Ag Group did quite a bit of work
and all the other side’s all been
planted up too and yeah, it’s
looking real good!”
– RNZ
TRANSFORMED: Native
plants planted along the
creek bordering Legg’s farm
are thriving. On the other
side of the waterway, native
seedlings have replaced
gorse and weeds.

Super Rugby stars coming to Kirwee
• By Sam Coughlan
THE CRUSADERS will meet
the Blues in a pre-season Super
Rugby Pacific clash at Kirwee
Domain.
Kirwee Rugby Club
spokesperson Toby Messerer said
he was “pretty excited” about the
January 31 match.
“It’s awesome because we’re
only a div 2 club, so for us to get
called up to host a game like this
is massive,” he said.
“We’ll have our barbecue
running, bring
in a coffee cart,
ice cream and
so forth, have
the bar open,
make it a good
community day.”
The club
hosted
Ellesmere’s
finals day in July,
Toby
Messerer
which attracted a crowd of more
than 3000 by Messerer’s estimate.
He said it was that success
which led to the Crusaders’ preseason
match.
“It was a massive success for
the club, and the community, so
word got around and we got a
phone call from the (Crusaders)
commercial manager who said,
‘hey, would you be keen, we
heard you’re running a good
show’.
“Everyone on the committee
and everyone else is on board, so
it’s great, it’s gonna be good for
the area.”
Said Crusaders head coach
Rob Penney: “Our pre-season
games are as much about testing
ourselves in a high performance
environment as they are
connecting with our fans across
the region.
“So we’re very pleased to take
our pre-season fixture against
the Blues to Kirwee. It’ll be our
first pre-season game ahead of
the 2025 Super Rugby Pacific
season.
“We have such a history of
rivalry with the Blues, and with
them being defending champs
this year, what an awesome
occasion to bring them to rural
Canterbury for a bit of Friday
afternoon footy.”
The last time the Crusaders

played in Selwyn was in 2017,
when they beat the Highlanders
50-31 at Darfield in a pre-season
match.
• Kick-off for the preseason
clash is at 3.30pm
with tickets available from
Ticketek.

Contest heats up for defending champs
• By Sam Coughlan
WEEDONS HAVE made a
perfect start to their Canterbury
Country premier one-day
title defence, but will face
their toughest test so far at the
weekend.
Last season’s champions have
put away Oxford, Kaiapoi and
Peninsula-Harbour and have had
a washout against Darfield. They
got up over Peninsula-Harbour
by eight wickets on Saturday,
chasing 134, lead by Hamish
D’Arcy’s 4/32 and Harry Southgate’s
57 not out.
That leaves them second on
the table, level on points with
Sefton but ahead on net runrate,
behind only Ohoka – their
opponents on Saturday.
Said Weedons captain Liam
Robinson: “It’s a big game for us,
we’ll be tested a lot more with
both (bat and ball).
“We probably just (need to)
keep doing the same stuff we’re
doing.
“There’s a lot of new boys in
the group as well, so everyone’s
still getting to know each
other, figuring out everyone’s
strengths and so it’s still a bit of a
process, but looking good at the
moment.”
He said it would be a tough
game with Ohoka having some
quality players in their midst.
“The Hamilton brothers,
TALK: Weedons captain Liam Robinson gives instructions after taking a wicket during their
win over Peninsula-Harbour.
PHOTOS: GARY NIGHTINGALE ​
Austin and Will, both open the
bowling for them. Will’s up the
top of the order with the bat, and
then a couple other guys through
the middle can whack it.
“They’re all around a pretty
good side these days, so it should
be a good one.”
Leeston-Lincoln-Southbridge
and Darfield also tasted victory
on Saturday – their first wins of
the season.
Darfield chased down 103
against Kaiapoi with ease,
Jesse Frew scoring 59 not out
on his return to the side after
recovering from a finger injury.
Leeston were made to work
for their result, but got up over
Oxford chasing 183 to win by
three wickets, with Brayden Hill
(58) and Harry Chamberlain (56)
the standouts.
Leeston and Darfield will meet
at Darfield Domain, while Tai
Tapu-based Peninsula-Harbour
have the bye.

four wickets on Saturday.

Zonta awards for young athletes
• By Sam Coughlan
THREE SELWYN high school
students have taken out top titles
at the Zonta secondary school
sports awards.
Darfield High School students
Dustin Rowlands and Sam
Partington were named the
most outstanding team after
representing New Zealand at
under-18 level in the World
Mounted Games. The riders
competed in obstacle races, such
as bending poles, stepping stones
and a stacking race.
The pair finished fifth in the
under-18 team championship
at Arezzo, Italy, and backed it
up with seventh in the world
under-15 pairs competition
at Normandy, France. Dustin
was 18th in the world under-15
individual championship at
Cavaglia, Italy.
Rolleston College’s Ashley
McLean took out the award for
most valued contribution to a
team for her role as player/coach
of the first XI. Ashley helped
organise trials and training
sessions based on her own
experience playing at a high
level.
She plays for Selwyn United
in the Mainland Women’s
Premiership and was also
selected in the under-20 Māori
Football Āotearoa side that

took on Hawaii at the King’s
Hawai’ian Football Festival in
Hilo earlier this year.
Dustin and Sam rode
borrowed horses in every event,
while many of their competitors
competed on familiar horses.
In Arezzo, they finished as the
top-placed team on borrowed
horses.
Darfield High sports
co-ordinator Pip Deans said
they put in an impressive
performance.
“Six weeks overseas,
coming from our winter into
extremely hot conditions, three
mentally and physically tough
competitions, three ponies to
bond with - we are exceptionally
proud of their efforts.
“The training, the fundraising,
the effort and dedication that
Dustin and Sam put into their
sport is proven by their results,
and they strive to be the best
they can be and love doing what
they do.”
Dustin and Sam are also the
current New Zealand under-15
pairs champions and have won
numerous Canterbury secondary
schools titles.

when needed, playing a number
of different positions..
She also supported the players
around her, enabling them to
shine.

Rural concerns over school bus reviews
• By Isabelle Teresa
The Ministry of Education (MoE) is
reviewing rural school bus routes across
the country, and has confirmed to the
Selwyn Times which Selwyn arrangements
are currently being assessed.
MoE’s James Meffan, Group Manager,
School Transport, states: “The primary
responsibility for transporting children to
and from school rests with their caregivers.
We may be able to help where distance
and/or accessibility may be a barrier.” The
eligibility criteria: children must go to their
closest state or state-integrated school and
live more than a certain distance from it,
with no suitable public transport.
Kirwee Model School requested a
review of its two daily school bus services
following changes in where its eligible
students live. Expectations are that the
review is finished this year with any
changes effective from Term 2, 2025.
Under a different style of funding
arrangement known as direct resourcing
(DR), the eight schools served by the
Malvern Schools Transport Association*
are reviewing their 18 routes following
expiry of the previous arrangement.
Meffan explains: “DR funding is where we
bulk fund a school or network of schools
directly to organise and manage their own
school transport assistance for their eligible
students. Any route changes are decided by
the DR school or network.” Expectations
are that the review is finished this year with
any changes effective from 1 April 2025.
Not all reviews end in route reduction
or cancellation – the review for Springfield
School increased its bus route funding
from October 2024, because of the
increased number of eligible students.
Federated Farmers is concerned about
the impact of reductions nationwide,
and proposing various alternatives. Rural
education spokesperson Toby Williams
says, as one example: “You need to have a
minimum of eight children catching the
bus from an area for it to carry on running,
but we think that should be lowered to
four.”
More ambitious is its suggestion that
the ministers of Education and Transport
combine forces to create “a multi-use
public/private system, where bus routes
serve both schoolchildren and provide
daily transport to town for rural people.”
Judging by the controversy and
subsequent petition about Environment
Canterbury’s recent cancellation of the
trial Route 87 Southbridge to Lincoln, due
officially to low patronage but also to the
limited timetabling, combined approaches
could well be welcomed by Selwyn rural
residents.
Federated Farmers urges the
Government to adopt a social investment
approach. “It’s not just about short-term
savings; it’s about maintaining the longterm
viability of our rural communities,”
Williams says.

The heritage farm buildings
of Terrace Station
Wednesday November 6 2024 Selwyn Times 27
Advertising Feature
• By Isabelle Teresa
Terrace Station, near Hororātā, is
steeped in 19th century agricultural
and settler history, originating from
its ownership by Sir John Hall with all
heritage aspects upheld by the generations
of descendants who have lived there.
Legend has it that the Hall family throws
nothing away! Great grand-daughter
Kate Foster is the current guardian,
fiercely valuing the station’s history and
welcoming tours to share its many aspects.
The woolshed is in the limelight right
now. Built in 1869, it has a category 2
registration from Heritage New Zealand
and a starring role in the soon-tobe-published
Woolsheds book (see
accompanying article). Shearers liked
working in it for its spacious and aircirculating
two-storey design. It is full
of clever touches, such as the wooden
windlass built into the rafters to winch
bales to the extensive storage loft, still
working as efficiently today as when
installed.
Kate’s son John, a fitter/welder living
nearby, is the latest generation to
contribute regular work to the site. He
is currently restoring and increasing the
safety of some elements of the woolshed,
using timber from the property. The plan
is to enable future woolshed tours.
The Station also displays many smaller
scale but equally lovingly-restored farming
buildings of significance.
The presence of an onsite blacksmith’s
shop was first recorded in 1869, ruled
over by just one blacksmith, William
McSweeney, for over 25 years. Richard,
Kate’s late husband, restored the building
– now dubbed “The Smithy” – as a
fascinating display. The massive bellows
still feed the furnace and the handle is
long-worn smooth.
The “Swaggers’ Hut” was built in
1885, in use until possibly the 1950s,
damaged by the quakes then transported
and restored by Richard and John in
2018. Decades before social welfare,
farms played a key role in feeding and
supporting itinerant and unskilled
workers. These people were respectfully
referred to as “travellers” at Terrace
Station, and their names often recorded.
The restored, one-room hut shows the
simple bunks and fireplace, and displays
the original front doorstep, worn almost
through by thousands of footsteps.
Terrace Station welcomes group tours
by arrangement, when these and other
heritage areas of the homestead and
property can be viewed. Details: www.

The publication of a very special book:
• By Isabelle Teresa
As its title announces, this handsome
volume is certainly, gloriously, about
woolsheds… but it is also about so
much more. Publishing on November
7 from Massey University Press, it is a
collaboration between design academic
Dr Annette O’Sullivan and Jane Ussher
MNZM, one of this country’s most
respected photographers.
This book has impact. It is large,
hardbacked, printed on quality paper, and
over 330 pages long. Coffeetable-worthy
for publishing touches such as the striking
images revealed under the dust jacket and
the red bookmark ribbon, its sturdiness
will also see it at home on any farm
smoko table.
Dr O’Sullivan opens by introducing
overarching topics that ground us in
settler time, including farm working
conditions, the lack of roading and
electricity, the active connection with
Britain, and how literal brand marks
became the origin of branding as we
know it today. It is history clearly and
briefly told, pitched at just the right level
of interest and accessibility.
Then it’s into the detailed studies of
the woolsheds. For each, a four-page
written introduction gives way to pages
of luscious photos, presented in a variety
of styles from whole page to white
bordered to grouped. The brightness of
the outdoor scenes contrasts sharply with
the moody, dark interiors. For maximum
visual impact, no words appear on these
Kate Foster and the cover star:
Terrace Station woolshed
pages and people are rarely shown. We
are immersed in the colour, detail and
textures of the buildings... so real we can
almost smell them.
Dr O’Sullivan explains her selection
criteria for the 15 woolsheds: “They were
original, their location represented the
main sheep farming regions, and they
had strong associated histories, a point of
difference and long family ownership.”
The families encapsulate a fascinating
range of pioneer experience. In some
ways, this is a history of those with
the necessary wealth to become
successful and, as a result, powerful.
The sheer numbers at each location are
extraordinary – hectares, sheep and other
stock, workers and support staff, bales
exported. However, the author constantly
balances this by describing conditions and
lifestyles of their workers, including the
many Māori teams. The presence of these
workers shines through in the photos,
with their initials, signatures and dates
intrinsic to these walls.
Hindsight puts some of these pioneers
on the right and wrong sides of history
in matters such as women’s suffrage
and Māori land rights. The book
acknowledges such things without
judgement, keeping the focus on the
people and their land.
Canterbury is well represented by
Highfield, Homebush, Longbeach Estate
and Terrace Station. Excitingly for
Selwyn, Terrace Station stars on both the

explains the cover
choice: “We felt it was
such an evocative shot
– across that undulating
paddock of young grain
and with the belt of trees
behind. The moment we
saw it we just knew it was
the one.”
Kate Foster, current
guardian of Terrace Station,
has been reflecting on the
experience of being involved
in this book. “Woolsheds are
definitely not just buildings but
also repositories for the stories
of people who worked in them.
They truly are icons, like religious
icons, representing important messages
from the past even if the reality is not so
active today.”
It is, indeed, a sad truth that all aspects
of sheep farming and wool sales have
sharply declined from those heyday
times. Dr O’Sullivan doesn’t flinch
from calling this “a tragedy. It is hard
to understand how this could happen
knowing the undeniable benefits of wool
as the ultimate sustainable resource this
country has ever produced.” Fortunately,
that was all the more motivation to create

Better plant health
can counter thrips
THRIPS SUCH as the greenhouse
thrip are an increasing problem in our
warming and drying climates.
Their impact can be seen widely in New
Zealand and is particularly noticeable on
rhododendron, viburnum and photinia
by the silver-coloured foliage.
This effect is caused by thrips feeding
on the plant’s leaf cells and sucking
out the contents which leads to the
silvering effect. New foliage has higher
concentrations of a natural defence
compound – grayanotoxin – and emerges
healthy and green but will succumb to
the same fate.
If left untreated, affected plants can
decline and over time can be fatal. Heavy
infestations can look unsightly and, if
left, can act as host plants allowing thrips
to spread easily to susceptible plants
elsewhere.
Using an insecticide or insecticidal
soap is one option for treating affected
plants as are natural biological control
methods.
Another option and complementary
to these is focusing on improving plant
health. A healthy plant is likely to have
much better resistance.
Enhancing plant health can be achieved
through improvements to the soil,
drainage, use of mulches, particularly
in drier areas to help conserve moisture
levels.

WARNING: Seeing silver-coloured
foliage is a sign of thrip damage in
rhododendrons.
PHOTO: STEPHANIE SINTON
For rhododendrons, for example, applications
of acidic fertilisers can be used.
Among the large variety of
rhododendrons available, some have
more resistance to pests and disease than
others.
Rhododendrons that have soft and
hairy indumentum on the underside of
their leaves are less susceptible to thrip
damage. Others are naturally more
resistant in other ways giving some added
protection.
Susceptibility to such pests is becoming
an important consideration when
selecting new plants and thinking how
they will perform in the future with our
changing climate.

Vegetables
It can be difficult to plan for
next autumn and winter when
it does not feel as if this year’s
winter has been completely
shaken off. Yet from now until late
next month is the best time for
growing plants that will mature
in autumn and be used in the
following months.
Savoy cabbages, broccoli, brussels
sprouts, silverbeet, parsnips,
leeks, salsify and swedes can be
sown for autumn and winter use.
Asparagus beds should be starting
to bear mature shoots now.
Cut them carefully or the young
buds just below the surface will be
destroyed. Do not allow any of the
shoots to grow a top or the plant
will be finished for the season.
Runner beans can still be sown.
Put them 15cm apart in double
rows, with 20cm between rows.
When the beans come through,
stake them with straight poles
strong enough to withstand the
weight of crops in a gale.
Silverbeet grows best in soil
PLANTING: Now’s the time to sow crops like savoy cabbages, broccoli and brussells sprouts so
they’re ready to eat in autumn and winter.

enriched with regular watering
of liquid manure. That promotes
quick, robust growth and produces
a broad mid-rib, which can
also be used for cooking.
Sweet corn can usually be safely
sown in late October or early
November. The plant is sensitive
to cold winds, late frosts and cold,
wet soils.
Warm temperatures are necessary
for rapid, productive growth.
Congratulations
Esme from Lincoln (aged 5). The winner of
the Intelligro Kids colouring competition in
the 2024 Selwyn Spring Garden Guide.
Dress the soil with plenty of
organic material. To form cobs,
the plants must cross-pollinate,
so place seeds in double rows or
groups of five or six, 15cm apart in
each direction.
Zucchini, vegetable marrows,
squash and pumpkins can be
sown outside now.
Flowers
Nasturtiums are good annuals
to grow in garden spots where
dry conditions make it difficult
for many other plants to survive.
Sow the seeds in pairs, 30cm apart
and thin to one when they sprout.
Nasturtiums are also excellent
for window boxes and hanging
baskets.
Dimorphotheca, eschscholtzia
(Californian poppy), linum, portulaca
and annual chrysanthemums
are good plants to grow in

unguicularis (formerly I. stylosa)
and crassula croccinea (a

can usually be relied on
to provide flowers in season from
the poorest soils.
Fragrant old-fashioned annuals
include night-scented stock,
mignonette and tobacco plant
(nicotiana). Night-scented stocks
lack the size and colour of their
taller relatives but are easy to
grow and do not require a rich
soil. Sow them near a window or
deck used on summer evenings.
Nicotiana is valued for its perfume
and trumpet-shaped white
or red flowers. Sow seed under
cover this month and transplant
in early December. It can tolerate
a semi-shaded position.
Fruit
Tomatoes can be sown under
a cloche, then thinned to two or
even one plant in each. Dwarf
varieties needing no pruning are
recommended. Taller varieties
planted out next month will not
need cloche protection.

Come home and
go ‘Ahhhhh’
Thanks to COVID, more people are
working from home with businesses
accepting it’s an entirely plausible way
forward. But with the increase of time
spent at home comes the realisation that
what we want, is an oasis of calm to help
separate ‘work’ from ‘home’. If you’re
lucky enough to have a home with ample
space and a little cash to burn, you might
consider some ways of catering for a little
more relaxation and comfort to help
provide relief when you need it.
Swimming pools
Those hot summer days get much easier
to handle if you and the family can splash
around. Pools are also great for fitness,
keeping the kids busy or just floating
around reading a good book. Be sure to
do your homework across all the pool
companies to ensure you’re getting the
right pool for your property. You’ll also
need to consider maintenance and how
that will fit into your routine. Pools may
also add value to your property (if you’re
considering a future sale).
Spa pools and saunas
Whether you have a physical job that
ends in sore muscles or strained joints,
or you’re staring at a laptop or device all
day, a spa pool or a sauna is a fabulous
way to revitalise and relax at the end of
each day. It’s also a lovely chilled out way
of starting your weekend mornings! Both
options are fairly easy to look after with
minimal maintenance and easy chemical
checks (for spas), and you can use them
year-round. Throw on some Bluetooth
headphones and a view of the telly—the
rugby has never looked better!
Gyms
If you’re a gym junkie that struggles to
make it to your local gym, having a setup
that works at home might be just what
you need. You can work out on your own
schedule, not worry about membership
fees (though you will have the initial
purchase cost of equipment). It’s also a
great way to live healthy, blow off steam
and keep to a good work/life balance.
Media rooms
With a multitude of streaming and
entertainment options available, it’s never
been easier to kick off your shoes and
get stuck into your favourite programs.
Comedy, true crime, a live concert or
premier movies—why not amplify your
experience? Media rooms are technologyled,
so you’ll be needing a large screen,
a good quality sound system, stereo
equipment and gaming consoles, good
block-out blinds, comfy electric recliners
or armchairs, and a minibar. And, of
course, call your local sparky to make
sure it’s all wired in safely.

On-trend with
curtains and blinds
Whether you are furnishing a new
home or updating your current home,
curtains and blinds can provide
privacy, warmth and style. However,
another important consideration
is window treatments also need to
withstand our harsh New Zealand sun.
Sheers are especially helpful in
creating softness while providing
privacy. While there is a considerable
range of sheers, the popular colour
palette is still in the grey tones, but a
trend is towards the warmer natural
colours. For cost-effectiveness and
durability, one hundred per cent
polyester linen-look sheers provide the
desired look and minimise fading.
Natural or dark coloured curtains
or drapes to complement white walls
are common, and the usual white,
black or grey still hold sway. However,
a stylish approach is the “Hamptons”
look in furnishings, with overall
monochromatic white being the
goal. The natural look is in demand
with linen fabric in favour due to its
antimicrobial and insulating properties
and ethical and sustainability factors.
An emerging trend is the texture of the
material. There is a shift towards velvet
in teal, green or other bold colours
to provide a feeling of opulence. As
curtains and drapes usually follow the
latest paint trends, there is also a move
towards umber and terracotta; these
colours may begin to feature more
prominently.
Inverted box pleats provide a flat and
contemporary look with structured
lines when they are hung. The choice
of curtain track can also enhance the
effect with rectangular curtain tracks
currently on-trend. Using a black track
and white curtains creates a statement.
With the move away from corded
blinds, automated blinds in a Smart
Home are leading in functionality and
efficiency. Many people choose dual
blinds with sunscreen or sheer with
block out fabric. A simple push of a
button (even remotely) can open the
blinds for convenience or enhanced
security. Also some suppliers may
provide free motors on installed
blinds. Another innovation is cellular
blinds. These honeycomb structures
create high insulation with the
cavities filling with warm air, which is
retained.
Let window treatments enhance
your home and choose on-trend
curtains or blinds in the fabric, colour
and pattern that suits your style and
needs.

Your guide to all things Real Estate
in the Selwyn District
Flawless floors for your home
27
So, your new build or renovations are
completed, and now you are faced with an
important decision: what type of flooring
will you go for?
With so many options to choose from
you’ll need to consider your style, the cost
and what will suit your lifestyle best.
Most homeowners will opt for a mix
of flooring types – such as cosy carpets
for the bedroom, hardwearing tiles for
bathrooms, and easy to clean wooden
flooring for hallways.
One trend is to use the same flooring
throughout the public areas for continuity
and flow, especially with more foot traffic.
And for these ‘high traffic’ areas, hard
flooring is a great option – and there are
plenty of types to choose from.
Synthetic laminated flooring is
hardwearing, cost-effective and fade
resistant. Upgrades to technology mean
that laminates can now look almost
identical to real wood, or even marble,
floors but without the price tag.
Engineered wood flooring, which
comprises one layer of thin hardwood on
the surface and a solid layer of plywood
on the bottom, is another cost-effective,
durable option and looks like the real-deal
when its laid.
However, because it has that real timber
top layer, it can be prone to scratching.
Some engineered wood flooring can be
sanded and refinished, but as the layer is
thin this might only be possible once or
twice. As such, you should check with the
manufacturer before attempting this and if
in doubt, give it a miss.
Away from wood and wood-effect
flooring, tiles are available in huge range
of finishes, colours, textures and materials
meaning you’re bound to find something
to suit your tastes and budget. Brighten
up your bathroom with some colourful
Portuguese-inspired tiles, or keep things
chic and simple with large format tiles in a
marble-effect.
As well as being hardwearing, tiles are a
great water-resistant option for bathrooms,
shower rooms, laundries and kitchens.
Once installed, floor tiles are pretty
easy to maintain and don’t require any
specialist aftercare – you can simply give
them a quick wash with some hot soapy
water.
And, of course, don’t overlook carpet
– although popular in bedrooms, highquality
carpet is suitable throughout your
home and offers warmth, comfort and
great sound absorption. It’s also available
in just about every colour you can think
of, including some eye-catching patterned
prints that can give your rooms a modern
update.
