I have two spare paddocks of uncut meadow hay for sale. Last year I got 150 small bales from these paddocks. They have been sprayed for broadleaf weed so you're getting only grass. They can be baled into a form that suits you, e.g the single-man (small) hay bales or haylege wrapped bales. I … View moreI have two spare paddocks of uncut meadow hay for sale.

By entering the survey you can go into a draw to win one of 5 $100 prezzy vouchers.
The survey is the start of a larger project to review the council’s District Plan. The District Plan controls the activities allowed on different properties, where shops, industrial areas and new housing is located and is also designed to protect our environment. In this survey we want to find out what aspects of our district help create the rural feel that people like.
The survey is available at www.selwyn.govt.nz.... It takes around five minutes to complete and is open until 4 December.

With it has come worsened air pollution, greater congestion, and increased danger as more kids are involved in road accidents. Worse, it has undermined our community cohesion: Schools can and should be the hearts of our communities
.
We're backing schools to set up walking buses and other solutions, with parents and volunteers helping local kids get to class safely.
We wrote to the nation's mayors pleading with them to lower speed limits outside schools, and many have come back to us with expressions of support. We talked to well-known New Zealanders with school-aged kids, and they united behind the campaign.
You can get involved too. We know people are busy, so the Sunday Star-Times and Neighbourly are encouraging families to choose one day a week when they and their kids walk, scoot, cycle - even ride a horse if that's what works for you!
I've chosen Mondays as the days I'll cycle to school with my 6-year-old son. And Neighbourly has set up a special pledge page, where you can choose a day when you will try to Foot It with your kids, talk with others doing the same - and go into the draw to win one of 50 Micro scooters. www.neighbourly.co.nz...

Selwyn District Council’s emergency operations centre has been stood down this morning after being activated overnight following the North Canterbury earthquake.
Approximately 75 people were evacuated from the settlements of Rakaia Huts and Taumutu/Fisherman’s Point. Residents from some other locations also self-evacuated.
Rakaia Huts and Taumutu/Fisherman’s Point residents have now been advised they may return to their homes.
An emergency centre was established at Southbridge Hall, with up to 60 people present overnight. The centre has now closed.
Civil Defence authorities advise that the tsunami warning remains in force, but only for marine and beach areas. That latest Civil Defence advice is that people should stay off beaches and out of the water for the next 24 hours, due to the risk of unpredictable strong currents.
There have been no reports to date of any significant damage in Selwyn to infrastructure, including roads or bridges. Crews are currently out inspecting the roading network.
There have been no reports of damage or disruption to council water supplies.
Refuse collection is scheduled to proceed as normal today.
Council facilities including Selwyn Aquatic Centre, Lincoln Event Centre, Rolleston Community and Selwyn libraries will open as usual today.
The Council has offered equipment and personnel assistance to councils in other affected areas.
