Consultation has begun on whether the Reserve Act classification on Kyle Park should be changed to allow new community facilities to be built on the site.

Christchurch City Council wants to use part of Kyle Park to build the new Hornby library, customer services and leisure centre.

However, the Kyle Park Management Plan and the reserve classification of the park need to change before any development can occur there.

The changes, if approved, will only apply to the north-east corner of the park, adjacent to Waterloo Road and Smarts Road.

The public have until Monday 15 April to make submissions on the proposed changes.

In our own backyard, our youngest kids are going without the basics. Unlike schools, early childhood centres don’t have a nationwide support programme. Children under 5 are at the most crucial age for brain development.

But KidsCan is helping. Since October they've been delivering five fresh meals a week to 25 early childhood centres, and kitting out kids with new raincoats and shoes. They want to extend the programme, so no one misses out on learning.

KidsCan, Neighbourly and Stuff have partnered up to raise enough money to feed and clothe 1000 more children under five. To support a child, sign up at KidsCan.org.nz.
