people want to live but that means we have to keep up with things like schooling, roading, police, broadband and cellphone coverage. “We have also got some real work to do in terms of water, to make sure we have a clear view of how we best use water to support jobs, opportunity and income, but also in a way that respects and protects the health of our water bodies, and that came through really clearly on the campaign.” Ms Adams said this year there was a
noticeable lift in the intensity of the election campaign. “The main difference this time was that Labour was actively campaigning whereas in the last election they really made little appearance. “People really engaged in politics this time and there were certainly a lot of people who stopped me on the street and wanted to talk about things and raising issues, and I think you saw that level of engagement right across the country.” ¢

West Melton’s Amy Adams once again swept all before her to claim the electorate for National. While her election night majority of 17,625 was down on her 2014 election majority it was still the second highest electorate majority on election night across the country. Ms Adams said it was extremely pleasing to be returned to Parliament for her fourth consecutive term as the representative for Selwyn. “In this job you have a performance review once every three years and you always hope you will win back the right to represent your community. “There was a really good level of support right across the communities, both by areas but also demographics, so that’s really encouraging.” She said she thinks overall the election result showed that people think New Zealand is going in the right direction. “That is not to say there aren’t things to work on and improve but there was an understanding that we need to have a strong economy to provide opportunities in jobs and infrastructure, and to pay for some of the social challenges that we have in terms of cleaning up waterways, housing and with vulnerable families.” She also accepts there are some challenges in Selwyn which need to be addressed over the next three years. “Among the big challenges is ensuring we provide for the fast growing population right across the electorate. “It is great to have an area where

Selwyn District Council is looking for volunteers to join a new Selwyn Civil Defence Response Team.
Selwyn’s much anticipated second annual district-wide CultureFest is on this weekend. Originally only held in Lincoln, last year the CultureFest became a district-wide event and was held in Rolleston to coincide with the town’s 150th anniversary, with the two towns agreeing to host the event in alternative years. The 2017 event, which is organised by Selwyn District Council in partnership with Rotary Club of Lincoln, Christchurch Multicultural Council, and the Canterbury Migrant Centre, will be held at Lincoln Event Centre and Domain on Sunday, October 1, from 11am to 4pm. Council’s events and recreation advisor Dave Tippett said after the success of last year’s inaugural event, CultureFest is back to showcase everything great about our growing community. “CultureFest will showcase the district’s cultures with activities including stage performances, music, food, art and craft demonstrations, ethnic have-a-go sessions, sports and games. “There will also be information p A Russian dancer performs during the 2016 stalls from agencies working CultureFest in Rolleston for multicultural communities,” he said.

They must also have excellent communication skills and be able to follow instructions,” Mr O’Rourke said. “There are a number of other response teams already operating in Canterbury which have responded to major civil defence emergencies including the Christchurch ear thquakes, the Kaikoura earthquake, the Port Hills fires and numerous flood events.” He said the volunteers will be trained in

Lincoln researchers get funding
Waters meters to be installed
Lincoln researchers have been awarded $8.2million in funding to attempt to find revolutionary ways of using naturally-occurring bacteria and fungi to increase the availability of nitrogen to plants and improve plants’ tolerance to stress.
Over the next three months the Selwyn District Council will be installing water meters in Leeston.
p The Lincoln Agritech Biotechnology Group from left: Dr Richard Weld, Dr Johanna Steyaert, International Intern Camille Vagner, Nicholas Glithero, PhD Student Thomas Flinois and Simon Lee
The study will be undertaken by Lincoln Agritech, which is an independent multidisciplinary research and development company owned by Lincoln University. Biotechnology team manager Dr Richard Weld who is leading the research, said the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment has awarded the programmes a combined $8.2m. “This is a noteable achievement for a small organisation.” Dr Weld said the first of the two projects will benefit the forestry and pastoral sectors by allowing pine trees and grasses to convert atmospheric nitrogen into plant-available mineral nitrogen in the same way that legumes
such as clover do, and by improving the plants’ tolerance to stress. He said this can be achieved by optimising the natural microbial communities associated with the plants, thereby creating new symbioses between plants, bacteria and fungi. “After this, the fungal-bacterial hybrids can be introduced to pine trees and perennial ryegrass. The combination will make the plants more resistant to stress and more able take up nitrogen.” Dr Weld said the five-year programme is world-leading as no other researchers have attempted a triple symbiosis between fungi, bacteria and these plants. ¢
The project is part of the districtwide rollout of water meters for all households on Selwyn District Council water supplies. Around 86% of council supply households across the district are already on meters. Water meters are already fitted at most newer Leeston properties, and this project will complete installations at around 520 households, starting in early October. A council spokesperson said metering has been shown to reduce water consumption as it links water use to charging. “Households that use less water

benefit from lower charges, while those using more pay higher changes.” For Leeston properties where meters are installed, there will be some changes to the way water is charged and from July 1, 2018, water charges in Leeston will move to the same system used in other fully-metered areas like Rolleston and West Melton. From this date Leeston properties will pay a reduced standard water rate, plus a charge per cubic metre of 44 cents. “Households with average water use will find their total charge remains similar to what they currently pay.” ¢

Drive phone free

That’s one of the findings of a recent survey carried out by Selwyn District Council, as part of a nationwide Drive Phone Free campaign. The campaign aims to increase driver awareness that talking on the phone, texting or even checking a hand held mobile phone while driving puts them and other road users at risk. Selwyn Road Safety Coordinator Ngaire Tinning said with cellphones now a large part of many people’s lives it can be difficult to ignore them when driving. “However, it is important to remember to put them away. p Drivers who use mobile devices while driving are the target of a new safety campaign It’s not just ourselves we have to think about when driving,” she said. viewing a video message.

Over 100 artists from around Selwyn and the country will have their work on display during this year’s annual Darfield Artweek run by the Malvern Community Arts Council.
p Darfield Artweek’s 2016 overall winner Sarah Dodson receives the Premier Award from judge Ken Hall
Artweek will kick off with an opening night gala at the Darfield Recreation Centre on Friday, October 6. On the night judge Jan Roberston, will announce the winner of the $2,000 Premier Award as well as a number of other awards.

This year in excess of 100 artists from Selwyn, Christchurch and around the country will display over 300 works of art in a variety of media. Malvern Community Arts Council (MCAC) chair Philip Baldwin said many artists and visitors come to Artweek to spend a day in Darfield and the surrounding area to enjoy the art exhibits, patronise local businesses, and enjoy the attractions of the area. “We would like to thank local businesses and the Friends of MCAC for their support of Artweek,” Mr Baldwin said. “Their generosity ensures that significant prizes can be awarded by our judge, and all of these, including the $2,000 Premier Award, will be announced at the opening night function.” Darfield Artweek includes a trio of exhibitions.
The Darfield Recreation Centre will be the main exhibition area with the works from the artists vying for the awards up for grabs on show, while the Selwyn Gallery will feature works by the New Zealand Botanical Art Society.

This year’s event will be held on Saturday, October 14 at the Ellesmere showgrounds in Leeston. Show President Doug Michael and his Brazilian wife Gabriella believe things have changed considerably in the Ellesmere district over the last 10 years and it is time to get the community spirit back into show day. “It is time to celebrate our diversity, not just in agriculture, but Ellesmere’s diversity in demographics,
culture and sport,” Mr Michael said. “The Ellesmere show is a great opportunity for the whole district to come together for one day each year and celebrate its successes as a community and have fun. “Many people who are new to the area often feel that the A&P show is an exclusive organisation whose members are all farmers. In actual fact agriculture is only a small part of the show these days. “There are many activities covering a broad range of interests and age groups all designed to emphasise the show’s purpose which is to showcase the local community, bringing together both town and country for competition, entertainment and education.” He said one of the big draw cards for young school children is the Kids Sports Challenge and the Young Master Chef competition involving four primary schools, Dunsandel, Leeston, Southbridge and Springston. “This year there will be five more
primary schools from the Ellesmere show district invited also to compete. There is a real healthy rivalry each year between the local schools with parents and teachers alike getting right in behind the show.” While Jody Direen, known as the ‘Queen of Country’ will headline the musical entertainment there will a lot of local talent on display through a ‘Selwyn’s Got Talent’ competition featuring local entertainers with prizes up for grabs. This year there will be a multi-cultural food court marquee serving a diverse range of cuisine all day in line with this year’s show theme. Of course all the staples of a true A&P show will again be on offer with dog trialling, shearing, best of breed competitions, equestrian events, shearing and wood chopping, as well as a display of vintage vehicles and machinery coordinated by the Ellesmere Vintage Club.

Getting back to nature Spring is a time of riotous growth in the garden, so it’s the perfect time to celebrate all aspects of what just might be the oldest pastime in the world. Gardening is what allowed us to settle down and build villages and towns. It’s what feeds the world. And it’s also a great way to get closer to nature, developing a little slice of Eden in your own backyard. That’s why Yates, the Kiwi garden supply company, are supporting National Garden week this October. This year’s National Gardening Week is about more than just getting your hands dirty and cultivating nature. It’s a chance to meet new people in your neighbourhood and community by helping out at your local community garden project, or simply by sharing some gardening time with friends and neighbours. There’s also a practical environmental purpose — giving bees the sustenance they need to thrive. Right now these busy garden helpers need all the assistance they can get from us humans, and establishing yellow and purple flowering plants gives them a nectar boost. There’s also a note of healthy living and self sufficiency in this week-long celebration of spring. Planting veges means growing fresh organic produce for the table, cutting back on grocery bills and achieving that five plus a day in a very satisfying way.

National garden week
Leading from the front u by Andy Bryenton
Mowing a wide, flat, open space — such as a sports field or empty paddock — is only a matter of brute power. In such conditions a wide cutting deck and a big motor are the key to success. But what if you want to compact that power and wide swathe into a machine that can cope with the real world — a world of obstacles, garden beds, kid’s toys and ornamental shade trees? That’s when you need to think outside the box. The ability to manoeuvre a small mower is all about articulation, but when you bump up the size to that of a serious zero-turn mower — the kind you’ll need for any serious lifestyle block or farm — the main issue becomes similar to that found in motor racing. With an open-wheeled race car it’s easy to hit the apex of every corner, because you can see where the wheel is tracking. Using this principle, Grasshopper moved the cutting deck of their Frontmount 600, 700 and 900 series mowers to the fore, allowing the big blades to be applied with finesse. The operator, mounted up and behind the cutting implement, can see exactly where the metal meets the lawn. In the backyard, there’s another advantage to having a low-slung cutting deck out front. The overgrowth beneath hedges, shrubs and fences used to be a job
for the weed whacker — now it can be despatched effortlessly from the comfy seat of the Grasshopper. Once again, a direct view of the ultra-slim low profile deck means you can easily gauge by eye where to place those blades. Even on the entry level 626T this means close to one-and-a-half metres of cutting width, so the job will be done in a snap. Armed with a range of motors from a 700cc V-twin through to a nononsense triple cylinder diesel, there’s never a shortage of power under the Grasshopper’s rear-mounted hood. The engine balances the deck at the front for stability on uneven ground, while guide wheels keep the whole unit steady and keep the blades ‘floating’ at the correct height over the turf. When it’s time to clean up, a front deck means ease of access for your
p Ahead of the game — front mounted blades let the operator see exactly where to cut
water blaster too. Now that spring is definitely here, it might be time to say goodbye to that old push mower and step
up to a definitive lawn-care solution. Talk to your local Grasshopper dealer about a trial and see the difference. ¢

Rally bred resilience u by Andy Bryenton
With warmer weather here many people will be thinking about summer adventures off the beaten track. For those with a love of excitement and power, motocross and off-road bikes exert a magnetic pull this time of year, while for others it’s the promise of dry, winding tarmac that gets the blood pumping. Then again, with initiatives afoot nationwide to get people out there on two wheels, perhaps it’s just ease of parking or fuel economy which appeal. While there are plenty of motorcycles which push the envelope in each of these directions — road-going power, off-road agility and frugal commuter practicality — there’s one which brings them all together into a happy medium. And it does so by approaching from a totally different direction. Honda’s new

CRF250L actually has the profile of a working agricultural bike under its sharp panel work — or at least a distillation of all the lessons learned by Honda over decades of building machines that can fulfill multiple roles on the farm. Make no mistake, this is no rural workhorse though. The long suspension travel and high ground clearance, narrow profile for agility and willing 250cc fuel injected single cylinder engine of the CRF250L and its sister bike the CRF350L Rally may be informed by the all-round reliability of Honda’s farming range, but there’s plenty of spice thrown in from the trophy-winning CRF off-road and enduro lineage as well. The Rally version of the CRF250L goes one better, drawing inspiration from

some of Honda’s legendary endurance bikes of old. In the days when the Paris to Dakar rally cut clean through the wilds of Africa, big, high-riding motorcycles duked it out with the 4x4s and trucks of this gruelling race. From such sport bikes like Honda’s NX650 Dominator were born, and now the styling cues of bikes like this — and later adventure models — come together in the Rally spec of the new CRF. With twin headlights, a wind deflector and updated panel work, the Rally looks ready to go anywhere. Which is no illusion. Both iterations of the CRF250 are made to

It’s a great bike for those who live within equal reach of town and country — an inexpensive commuter that can park in spaces too small even for many road bikes, plus a fun trail riding machine on the weekends. Have Honda hit the nail on the head? New riders seem convinced, with the fuel injected 250s meeting a great reception over the ditch. And if anything, New Zealand has even more of the kind of terrain the CRF250L was made to tame. ¢

Dining & Entertainment
Go alfresco for October
Rosebank
Estate and Winery
u by Andy Bryenton
Alfresco dining sounds just that little bit classier than simply going outdoors — ironic, considering that our ancient ancestors dined this way most every night. But with spring here at last and daylight saving giving us long, lingering twilights in which to relax, the allure of a table in the open air is calling. October is harvest season in northern climes, leading to perhaps the biggest festival of food and drink in the world — Bavaria’s Oktoberfest. Recently German tax inspector Oliver Struempfel broke the world record by carrying 29 full steins of beer to the table in the home of this annual event, but things are likely to be a bit more subdued at our local equivalents. Even better, with the craft beer scene booming, Kiwi celebrations of the liquid amber gold are likely to be gourmet affairs. Another fine tradition in the open air is the Kiwi barbecue, which is finding new inspiration in an unlikely place — the deep South of the United States. The art of the ‘pitmasters’, those gurus of the slow cooked brisket and the cajun spiced pork belly, is alive and well in New Zealand, with competitive barbie chefs squaring off in the Jack Daniel’s national championship. Expect flames, marinades, dry herb rubs and secret sauces in Napier on October 7 and 8, and in Canterbury on March 24 and 25
The excitement is building for one of Canterbury’s biggest fun events!
