Merry Christmas from the Linwood Central Heathcote Community Board!
Kia ora Linwood Central Heathcote!
What a fantastic year it’s been out here in our ‘hood!
We at the Linwood Central Heathcote 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. These wins include the decision of the site of the Bays Area Skate Park, the Opawa Volunteer Library, the Woolston Community Centre and the amendment to the Christchurch District Plan.
The completion of the fantastic two-kilometre promenade following the Avon River from Christchurch Hospital through to the Margaret Mahy Family Playground has symbolised how far our central ward has come.
The only chapel in the world built to honour nurses killed during 20th century wars was reopened after a complex year-long restoration project.
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!
From the Waikura (Linwood Central Heathcote) Community Board and the Christchurch City Council
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
30.2% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
69.8% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)

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.
