FROM THE REPORTER’S DESK DRIVERS, PLEASE slow down outside Harewood School. While it may be a 70km/h zone for some of the day, we still need to make sure the pupils are safe at all times. Check out the principal’s plea to slow down on page 3. On a more positive note, there’s some good sports results coming out of north-west schools this week. Rangi Ruru’s tennis team capped off a fantastic season by placing fifth in a national secondary school competition in Auckland. A St Andrew’s College student is also the new holder of a rowing world record – and he’s only 15. Read more on page 10. Plus, on page 5, we celebrate Papanui’s Russell McKee being awarded the Vincentian Cross for his 56 years of service to St Vincent de Paul. – Julia Evans

Listing Number: BE192814
Auction: Thursday 27 April, 2017 Unless Sold Prior What price to own a slice of land bordering the beautiful Arthurs Pass National Park? You may be surprised how low this may be. This is truly a piece of history for sale, being an original railway worker’s cottage from the early 1920’s. A treasured family retreat for three generations but sadly the time has come to say goodbye. There is room to sleep five comfortably with a double bedroom, separate living, separate dining and sunny kitchen. A large single garage. The outdoor amenities in the area will suit all levels and ages, from gentle walks to strenuous mountain climbing. After a day out you can come back to your cosy bach, light the fire and relax. The local cafes are just down the road for your coffee or dinner out. Call now - this is a very rare opportunity.
