Hi neighbours,

What do you get when you combine go-carts with the luge, and race down the side of a ski mountain? It's called mountain carting; and it's easily the most fun Brook Sabin has ever had.

This cool ride is at Cardrona - the South Island ski resort. Although most Kiwis head there during the winter ski season, in the warmer months it's a summer playground. Click here to read all about it. Have you given this a go?

What a fantastic year it’s been out here in our neighbourhood!

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

This year’s wins have highlighted the importance of a strong community.

Our amazing volunteers have done some incredible work, including the Edgeware Village Beautification Project.

The work done by the volunteers at the Matariki Dawn Planting Day and the Ouruhia Reserve planting event was amazing.

We celebrated our green thumbed neighbours at the Great Seed and Plant Swap at Papanui Library and at the Edible Garden Awards.

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

Meri Kirihimete and happy holidays!

Doses of chlorine being used across Christchurch to ensure drinking water is safe will likely be halved next month after city councillors approved the move.

Cutbacks will be made at 60 per cent of the city's pump stations – 40 per cent already have lower doses – reducing the smell and taste of chlorine, particularly for those nearest to wells.

It will also be welcome relief for those with skin conditions such as eczema that are aggravated by the chemical.

SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH

Issued by MetService at 01:57 pm Saturday 22 December 2018

Valid until 09:00 pm Saturday 22 December 2018

This watch affects people in the following weather forecast districts:

Christchurch

Canterbury Plains

Canterbury High Country



Scattered thunderstorms are expected to spread north through Canterbury this afternoon and evening. There is a risk that some of these thunderstorms could become SEVERE for a time this afternoon and evening, producing localised downpours of 20 to 30mm per hour, large hail of 15 to 25mm diameter and possibly a small tornado.



Rainfall of this intensity can cause surface flooding, slips and hazardous driving conditions, while large hail can cause damage to crops, orchards, vines and glasshouses and also make driving hazardous. If any tornadoes occur, they will only affect very localised areas.

Instead of encouraging people to be overly cautious during the silly season, we wanted to share our injury prevention tips in a more interesting way.

Based on the traditional Christmas song we all know and love, we created a video series featuring 12 weird and not so wonderful injuries we saw from last Christmas, and tips on how to avoid them!

Give our 12 Days of ACC Christmas video series a watch. From everyone at ACC we hope you have a very Merry Christmas and happy new year.
