Thank you for using Neighbourly
Wonderland - the 1906 equivalent of a theme park - was set up in Christchurch's Hagley Park during the New Zealand International Exhibition.
It included a "most riotous" water chute, which sent people hurtling into Victoria Lake on a small boat.
NZ Sign Language is unique to our country and is one of New Zealand's three official languages, so those are some great reasons to celebrate it!
Check out the Neighbourly team trying their hand at simple greetings that you could sign in your neighbourhood.

Sadly we lost one of our guinea pigs yesterday and now it’s time to find the other one a good home if possible. So if you keep piggies and are interested let me know. There is a hutch available as well but it has lots of wear and tear and needs some tlc.
