The facility is the brainchild of Steve and Debbie Wood, but is likely thanks to their 14-year-old son, Damian, an avid skate park enthusiast.

The Barn, on Flaxton Rd, is essentially a warehouse half full of ramps and grind rails, offering something for all abilities. The only conditions for riders are they must wear a helmet, and parental permission is needed for anyone under the age of 18.

Nitrate levels have significantly reduced at a North Canterbury stream less than two months into a pilot project to improve its water quality.

The Institute of Environmental and Scientific Research (ESR)-led denitrification wall trial at Silverstream Reserve, near Kaiapoi, has resulted in nitrate levels in groundwater dropping from 7.1mg/l to 0.5 mg/l.

The 25 metre-long wall, installed in November, is a world first, having never been tested in a fast-flowing gravel aquifer system before.

The Ashley Rakahuri Rivercare Group (ARRG) was up against seven other finalists for the Australasian Wildlife Management Society (AWMS) annual award for practical wildlife management.

The group's win recognised the practical work it did to protect endemic braided river birds in the Ashley-Rakahuri River, including the wrybill, black-fronted tern, black-billed gull and the banded dotterel, all of which nest on clean shingle banks and islands in the river.

Marriage automatically invalidates any previous will (unless the will was made while you were planning this marriage).
If you already have children, you need a new will. Otherwise, all your possessions (including furniture, vehicles, heirlooms, animals, etc, except business items) and the first $155,000 of your money/land/investments (plus 1/3 of the rest) will automatically go to your new spouse. There may also be unexpected issues about who is a 'child'. Just make a will (please). You can do it here and now. We've changed our system to include free review of the signed will to confirm it is legally valid. autom.io...
