Guess what? Our Gruffalo has won a top award!

The Team from Christchurch City Council

Did you take part in last year's Gruffalo Explorer walk? If the answer's yes, you may remember this special creature.

He's just been to Wellington, where he was a winner in the Golden Foot Walking Awards 2018.

Well done Gruffalo for taking out the top prize for a community-led project, which was part of the Breeze Walking Festival. This would not have been possible without the collaboration of St Margaret’s College, Canterbury Playcentre Association, Canterbury Plunket and the Council parks, libraries and recreation teams.

How much does it cost to join AEA?

There are no dues or fees for joining AEA or attending AEA meetings. We are self-supporting through our own voluntary contributions. At some point during each meeting we pass the basket to help cover expenses, such as the cost of rent and literature. Members are not obliged to contribute, but we usually do so to the extent we are able.
