The two-day tour allows people to experience New Zealand’s most healthy and energy efficient ‘superhomes’. The Living House on First View Ave in Beachlands is owned by Joel and Rochelle Payne. Still in the construction phase, the home will eventually become the permanent residence of Joel, Rochelle and their two young children who currently live in the house next door, which is also part of the tour. Rochelle says the Superhome tour gives people a chance to see what’s involved in building better houses, so they can decide if they want to build Better building and healthier homes are on public display this weekend at The Living House, First View Ave, Beachlands something similar themselves.

A Pointways Pony Club member has been selected to take part in a unique competition that showcases the sporthorse potential of former thoroughbred racehorses. Alice O’Donoghue of Hunua, and Travis – her six year old, 15.2 hands high horse – have been selected to compete in the Dunstan Ex-Factor event at next month’s Equidays® held at the Mystery Creek Events Centre near Hamilton. The Dunstan Ex-Factor is for thorough- breds with less than a year’s sporthorse schooling since retiring from the race- track. In its fourth year, the event is run by Beyond the Barriers NZ – a non-profit organisation which promotes the versatil- ity and suitability of retired racehorses as pleasure and sporthorses. Alice, a committee member and events coordinator at Pointways Pony Club, has owned Travis since last November. She loves a challenge and believes the competition will be an exciting experience. “Beyond the Barriers are doing a really great job showing everyone that ex-racehorses can have very successful lives after racing and it’s nice – although a tad nerve-wracking being in the public eye – to be a part of it, especially since I have never had an opportunity like this before,” she says. Beyond the Barriers NZ was formed in 2014 by Gina Schick and Nicky Wallace, who want to increase the re-homing op- portunities for retiring racehorses. Gina says they received 70 applications for the Equidays® event this year, with half being selected to compete during the equine showcase from 12–14 October. “Entries have definitely grown over the past three years. Our first year of competition in 2015 was an invitation-only event and we intended to run the event every second year, but due to its popularity it has become an annual feature for us.” Gina says they try to accept a range of horses spanning age, breeding, gender and race record and ensure the riders are from across the country, are a mix of professionals and amateurs, and include those who have never had a thoroughbred before. Alice was looking for a second horse on a small budget when she purchased Travis Hunua's Alice O'Donaghue with her ex-racehorse, Travis. The pair will compete in a series of challenges showcasing the versaility as a ‘project’ from Gina, who also runs of retired racehorses at the North Island Equidays® event next month.
