Merry Christmas from the Halswell Hornby Riccarton Community Board!

The Team from Christchurch City Council

Kia ora to the southwest!

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

With significant community facilities coming for Hornby and Riccarton, a fantastic new skate park for Knights Stream and construction underway on stage two of Riccarton Road’s upgrade, it’s been quite a year!

Riccarton Road has come a long way this year, with the completion of stage one of its upgrade.

The Wigram Air Crash Memorial unveiling, the Hello Hornby event, new toilets for Harrington Park and Halswell Quarry’s Patterson House’s new look are some of our highlights for the busy year that’s been.

We are so grateful for all of your support in the community, and we cannot wait to see what 2019 brings for southwest Christchurch.

Meri Kirihimete and happy holidays,

From the Waipuna (Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton) Community Board and the Christchurch City Council

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
