Neill, best know for his roles in hit movies Jurassic Park and Hunt for the Wilderpeople, wrote in an opinion piece for Stuff that a new interfaith hub on the cathedral site would "symbolize a different, current Christchurch" after the March 15 mosque terror attack.

The Christchurch-based Super Rugby franchise confirmed on Wednesday the name and imagery from next season was being reviewed, with New Zealand Rugby boss Steve Tew saying the link to knights on horseback was "no longer tenable".

Crusaders chief executive Colin Mansbridge said seeking the views of those directly affected by the shootings at two mosques on March 15 was not fair while the tragedy was still raw. Fifty worshippers were killed and dozens more injured when a gunman opened fire during afternoon prayers.

It's "all hands on deck" for operators attempting to restore power to several Banks Peninsula properties still in the dark days after a tree knocked down power lines.

The fallen tree hit power lines on Western Valley Rd, near Port Levy, just after 1pm on Thursday, cutting power to more than 5500 homes in Charteris Bay, Church Bay, Diamond Harbour, Governors Bay, Marley Hill and Teddington.

Power was restored to all but 313 customers just before 2.30pm that day. Crews were going door-to-door to check in with those still affected and working to restore power over the weekend.
