FROM THE PRESIDENT In spite of the rain that set in for the main parade, 118th Malvern A & P Show president, Jane Jenkins warmly welcomed everyone present. She thanked those that attended either as spectators or exhibitors and commented that without their support there would be no Show, “T o the exhibitors and competitors in all twenty five sections of the Show I sincerely thank you for your passion toward the same cause as mine,” Jane commented. “A & P shows are in good heart due to your support and camaraderie,” she added.

Jane went on to welcome Selwyn MP Amy Adams and Selwyn Mayor Sam Broughton to the Show, as well as making special mention of past presidents and patrons.

“In the last couple of weeks I have been involved in two days of additional judging of stock on farm, in conjunction with the Courtenay A & P Show,” Jane said. “This was the replacement two tooth ewe competition and it

was won by Coleridge Downs at Rakaia Gorge, while the handicap section went to, Annavale Station, Springfield.

Also of mention is the replacement dairy heifer competition which was won by Alistair and Sharon Rayne of Darfield (Owners) and Sheldon Reed, Reed of Darfield (Grazier). We travelled around our region and it was fantastic to see stock that would have been a credit to any farmer throughout N ew Zealand.”

Jane congratulated all those who supported and entered those competitions, before going on to thank the Judges and Stewards for their time and knowledge. She thanked the much appreciated sponsors of the Show and commented that without their support it would be difficult to present a successful event such as this.

“Finally to my amazing committee, I thank you for all your tireless work and for your enthusiasm - especially Show secretary Rebecca Stewart.

Stewart I also thank Chris and Rachel

Racing run is to ride a cloverleaf pattern around three barrels, as quickly as possible. The time starts when the barrel racer crosses electronic timers on their horse then heads for the first barrel and makes a sharp turn around it. This is done around all three barrels before heading directly for home, as fast as possible. The run is complete and the clock stops when the beam of the electronic timer is set off.

“I currently compete in the Junior Barrel Racing and the Open Team Roping with my Dad, Nev Sarginson.

Sarginson This season I had the honour of travelling around New Zealand to compete in most of the rodeos. I worked really hard in the training of my horse and myself. This led to the winning result; a New Zealand Junior Barrel Race title.

“Rodeo consists of many events and is fun for both fans and athletes. It has increased in popularity and continues to grow. Many of the athletes who compete in rodeo or those who attend rodeos find it addicting.

Everything from the atmosphere, to the crowd, to the competition. Rodeo is a life style for many and a love. I really enjoy it as I have made so many new friends and had so many amazing experiences and opportunities,” Georgie concluded.

Darfield High School will host a Shave for a Cure event at lunchtime, on Friday, April 7th.

The ‘shave’ raises money for the Leukemia and Blood Foundation and all money fundraised will go towards helping the six Kiwi’s diagnosed with a blood cancer every day. It is estimated over 21,000 New Zealanders are living with a blood cancer or a related condition.

Shave for a Cure has been around for over fifteen years and is known as an iconic fundraising event. It attracts Kiwis from across New Zealand; mums and dads, students, celebrities, business and trades people, all keen to help those living with a blood cancer or related conditions.

Pru Etcheverry, Leukaemia & Blood Cancer New Zealand’s Chief Executive Officer said she’s always blown away by people who are prepared to step up for others in need.

“We’re so appreciative of those who shave and those who donate to support the thousands of people affected by a blood cancer diagnosis.”

“They, with the help of their friends, families and colleagues managed to raise around $1.3 million in 2016 which is critical as we don’t receive any Government funding.

“The money raised from Shave for a Cure means we can continue providing not just support for patients and their families, but we can also fund vital research, create awareness and advocate on behalf of patients,” Pru added.

Shave for a Cure is a great way to show solidarity with blood

Donations can be made online, by visiting the Shave for a Cure website: www.shaveforacure.co.nz (Darfield High Shave Crew) cancer patients - many of whom lose their hair as a result of life-saving treatments such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

At DHS students, teachers and parents are able to participate in the event, even Selwyn’s local mayor, Sam Broughton, is donating his hair. It is the school’s goal to raise $4,000 toward the cause.

A ny o n e r eq u i r in g m or e information should contact Teacher, Todd Adams at Darfield High School or a member of the School’s Shave Team, Students - Sean Pennells, Georgia Shinn, Rosa Millar, Maddy O’Callaghan and Abbie Cider.

After fifteen years of trading as Hororata Nurseries Dave Sligh has made the decision to retire from the nursery industry.

A spinal injury from a rugby league accident way back in 1986 has tormented him to this day and recent surgery, the fourth to date, has done little to ease the ongoing pain. Despite loving the work he does, Dave has decided that enough is enough and it is time to look for work that is less likely to test his injuries.

Over the fifteen years in business, Dave has offered advice, drawn plans and supplied plants to farmers, lifestylers and home gardeners in the Selwyn district and beyond.

“Although I always enjoy planning or revamping a home garden, my real passion is r e v e g et a t i o n a n d f a r m planting. I have met numerous interesting and inspirational people throughout the years and many have become good friends. I am lucky to have had

Friday 31st March 2017

a job that I always enjoyed, relishing the challenges associated with growing plants from seed or cuttings, marketing them and helping customers make the best choices for their planting projects, in our often challenging environment,” Dave said. “I always have a sense of pride and achievement when I return to a job, two or three years later, and see the progress and impact a successful planting has made. I will not be cutting my ties with the industry completely however, as I plan to continue offering a consultancy and plant brokering service in Canterbury, specialising in farm and revegetation plantings,” Dave commented.

However for now it is time for Dave to move on. His focus is on the disposal of the Nursery and the sale of the home and lifestyle block he shares with partner Wendy Hampton, so they can begin a new and less strenuous life.

Dave Sligh of Hororata Nurseries.

From a customer’s point of view the huge disposal sale planned for April 8th, 9th and 10th will mean an excellent opportunity to purchase plants at below wholesale prices.

“Stock will be priced to sell so that we can quickly bring things to a closure and make plans for the future,” Dave concluded.

lovelybubbly Local Coalgate mother and entrepreneur Amanda Wyatt has turned a childhood obsession into a dream, by opening her own homebased business ‘lovelybubbly’. The enterprise produces unique soap products.

“When I was a young girl,” Amanda said, “I was obsessed with ‘Lush’ (a business found worldwide) and the beautiful soaps they made. It wasn’t until my Mum was given soap fashioned to look like a cake (it was beautiful), that I wanted to try and make them myself. I am a nurse by trade and when I had maternity leave looming I decided that was the ideal opportunity to give it a go and see where it would take me.

It has taken a lot of trial, error and practice, but once I got the hang of it, and was addicted to soap making, that’s when I decided to start ‘lovelybubbly’.

“I researched soap making a lot on the internet, watching ‘how to’ videos and reading up on all the different methods. It’s amazing to find something you’re passionate about, and literally learn it all from the comfort of your home! There

came a time where I had to see it made for myself, so I booked into a local class where we were able to watch how it was done. I am holding my own ‘watch and learn’ class this month, which should be really fun. There’s something really nice about making your own soap,” Amanda enthused.

“At the moment I am a 'One Man Band', so to speak. I run my business through my Facebook page and people can purchase soaps through there using the ‘online shop’. I’ve received many positive comments when people realise that the product pictured is not actually cake, it is soap!

“I have recently opened a shop at my home, in a specialised space attached to the garage.

This is where I go in the evenings to make my creations, and it is a lovely area for people to come and see, smell and purchase, the soaps. When it gets busy, it just means I am out there in the evenings once the children are in bed, sometimes until quite late, but I love it,” Amanda commented.

“I have three children, seven,

five and fifteen months. With my youngest being at home while the other two are at school, I usually juggle ‘soap time’ around his naps, and then it has to wait until they are all tucked up in bed. It’s then I go out to my soap-room, put on the radio and either make soap or fill orders. It does mean that a lot of things get put to the side, like housework and catching up on your favourite show,” Amanda laughed, “but its not hard when you’re doing something you really enjoy. I also have a fantastic husband and mum, who come to the rescue if things get frantically busy!

“While my Facebook page has been running for about a year, my shop has been open just two months, giving folk the flexibility of purchasing from either,” Amanda finished.

One person in three in the world lives in poverty. Oxfam is determined to change that world by mobilising the power of people against poverty.

Fundraising can make a real difference.

With this in mind local Kirwee resident and ex-Darfield High School Head Boy, James Cider joined with members of his family and friends, to meet the minimum $2,500 fundraising target, then undertake the one hundred kilometre Oxfam Trailwalker fundraising event held in Whakatāne, Saturday March 25th.

Oxfam Trailwalker New Zealand is part of an international series, with sixteen events being held around the world in eleven countries. Set up by the legendary elite Queen's Gurkha Signals Regiment in 1981 as a military exercise to test teamwork, endurance and determination, Oxfam Trailwalker is the ultimate physical and mental challenge.

The event involves one hundred kilometres in 36 hours raising sponsored funds for Oxfam. The Oxfam Trailwalker began in 2006 in New Zealand and since then over 10,000 participants have lined up at the start line and raised over $9.3 million.

Thousands of people take part each year as participants, support crew and volunteers.

“There are seven different legs of varying difficulty and terrain,” James reported, roads, trails, bush and beach. The weather was challenging - going from quite hot, to rain.

“The Oxfam goal was to raise

Page 9

$1,000,000 and our team pledged $2,500. Our team comprised of three teachers from local primary schools Chantelle Court, Court Nicole Allchurch and Julia Cider - and it was the second year of the event for them all. Training began twelve weeks prior.

“I was a last minute addition to

complete the team of four,” James added.

“We also had a four person support crew who met us at checkpoints to feed, shelter, refill drinks, and motivate us all.

One supporter could walk a single leg with us and DHS Student - Abbie Cider walked fifteen kilometres with us

through the night (hardest leg) to help us find the track, lift our spirits, and keep us moving,” James said.

“We finished in 29 hours 42 minutes and although it was a painful and challenging experience we ended it with a great sense of achievement.

An ar st’s impression of the larger and more open forecourt area at the Sheffield Fuel Stop.

Allied Petroleum is about to redevelop its Sheffield fuel stop, at 81 Main West Coast Rd. In order to accommodate the significant construc on works involved, a forecourt closure is required.

The site will temporarily cease trading from Monday, April 3rd.

“The building project is expected to run for around ten weeks, and we look forward to welcoming customers back on to the forecourt around mid-June,” said an Allied Petroleum spokesperson.

The upgrade will involve demolishing the exis ng building on site so as to increase the size of the forecourt area, while ensuring improved vehicle access in and out. New equipment is being installed and, alongside petrol and diesel, a new product is being introduced; ‘Alliedblue’, an exhaust fluid needed for an increasing number of modern diesel vehicles travelling New Zealand’s roads.

During the closure petrol and diesel is available from Allied’s Darfield fuel stop, which operates 24/7, and accepts credit card and eVpos

payments.

Allied Petroleum has over one hundred network loca ons in New Zealand. Visit their website (with an interac ve map) www.alliedpetroleum.co.nz or download the app to find out where they are located.

Allied Petroleum is a subsidiary of the HWR Group; a family-owned business, based in Invercargill. In addi on to fuel supply, HWR’s interests also include concrete, lubricants, contrac ng, quarrying, transport and waste.

The Darfield Section One Cricket Team have had a fabulous season. Winning round one prior to Christmas, they went on to make the finals against Springston, held on Saturday, March 25th. These young high school players were fortunate enough to be given the chance of a lifetime, playing the final on the main field at Hagley Oval in Christchurch. Although the weather conditions weren’t ideal, it was an amazing experience for the team as they got to play on a world-class field. The game was very close and intense - Darfield came into bat first and made 136/7 in a rain reduced 27 overs.

Springston scored 140/7 in the second to last over of the match to take the trophy.

Every week in New Zealand three families are told their child has cancer.

years of age and was diagnosed with cancer at the age of fourteen months.

“She went through six rounds of chemo followed by surgery to remove an 8 x 10 centimetre tumour growing off the base of her spine,” explained Rosa’s mother Gemma Guild.

“Fortunately Rosa is completely in the clear now.

“The Child Cancer Foundation (CCF) is an organisation that we have a strong desire to support.

When your child is diagnosed with Cancer your world turns upside down,” Gemma said.

“CCF does a great job assisting families get their heads around juggling the financial and social implications and help to keep everyone together. They also run the ‘Beads of Courage’ programme that all patients become very proud of.

“So in a nutshell - we are running a fundraiser for CCF

inspired by our daughter’s cancer diagnosis in April last year,” Gemma added.

“Hazlett Rural Ltd (HRL) have been extremely generous in agreeing to run this fundraising campaign for us. We are hoping to engage the rural community in a way that CCF hasn't been able to do in the past. The team at HRL are well connected and are out there talking to farmers constantly. We are hoping that their network and the generous nature of rural folk will make this campaign successful.

“We are asking farmers to donate one or more sheep from their next line of lambs, hoggets or ewes being sent to any sale at Coalgate. The proceeds will be donated to CCF with no commission deducted (just the yard fee),” Gemma concluded.
