Merry Christmas from the Coastal Burwood Community Board!

The Team from Christchurch City Council

Kia ora Coastal-Burwood residents,

We at the Coastal-Burwood Community Board and Council want to thank you all for another amazing year with our one-of-a-kind community!

This year has been one which has proved the importance of celebrating our special community.

Over the year, we celebrated the completion of the Jetty and Boardwalk, green thumbs at the Garden Pride Awards and most notably, the opening of the Taiora: QEII Recreation and Sport Centre.

The opening of Taiora: QEII was welcomed with open arms out here in the East, and we are so thankful for your support in making it happen.

The amendment to the Christchurch District Plan has been a win for our community. A big thanks to all those involved who supported the Board in successfully obtaining this approval.

Thank you all for having your say on new developments in our area, like QEII Park and the Thomson Park upgrade.

From a new Disc Golf at Queenspark Reserve to new macrocarpa benches from the Lions Club for south of the pier… the East is where it’s at!

We want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! We can’t wait to see what 2019 has to bring the East!

From the Coastal-Burwood Community Board and the Christchurch City Council.

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.

We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?

🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?

(Susan from Massey kindly provided this head-scratcher ... thanks, Susan!)

Premature theft

Don from Parklands - Marshlands

Increasing the cost of fuel in anticipation before any actual justification I regard as blatant premeditated theft.
The CEO's who condone this premature theft for their share holders BEFORE they have any justified reasons will not be so quick and prematurely reduce the price when the situation is reduced.
Nor if the situation is quickly restored will they arrange payback if they have over reacted.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
