Leeston landscape architect Geraint Howells, of Creative Intentions, told the Selwyn District Council's long term plan hearings last week that a new covered sports ground could be built at Rolleston's Foster Park using a low-cost, long-lasting and relocatable aluminium and canvas structure.
The council has proposed developing the park further from this year and a building a covered sports hub for the town in 2020-21. Howells' idea, using a structure from a company named Sprung, could take just weeks to build.

So now is the ideal time to make sure your home is as fall-proof as possible.
The home safety checklist will give you practical tips on how to make your home safe. It covers how to avoid slips and falls in the home’s most used areas. For example, paths can get icy in winter, applying salt or sand to your path can help avoid any icy slips.
Having a fall can be upsetting. Those over 65 have a one in three chance of having a fall, while those over 80 it’s one in two.
The good news is falls are preventable. A new movement called Live Stronger for Longer is helping to reduce the risk of falls by providing practical information and free resources. We want to help you stay on your feet, and living the life you want to live.
Take the home safety checklist with your friends and family and join the movement today.
Proudly brought to you by ACC, HQ&SC, MOH and your local community health providers.
