Christmas at the Royal - Beautiful Christmas show full of singing and dancing

New Brighton Spring Music Festival 2016

An awesome show by the Company Kids of Impact Dance & Stage School with the addition of some littlies singing and dancing. It is all Christmas. (You'll also see them at Coca-Cola Christmas in the Park)
People say there aren't enough Christmas shows around where it is completely about Christmas - well this is that show.
The tickets are $25 and if you get from me (I have 14 left) there is no booking fee - we did this as a fundraiser. The seats are in the beautiful Dress Circle so you have a fantastic view of the entire stage.
It's a beautiful show with a wee surprise performance in it that will have you smiling and really thinking Christmas.

Cyclists forced to use ‘more dangerous’ crossing if cycleway closed

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

Closing a Christchurch cycleway to avoid an unsafe rail crossing will lead cyclists across an even “more dangerous” crossing, cycling advocates say.

Transport Minister Simeon Brown has weighed in on the issue, calling the move to shut a 1.5km section of the Heathcote Expressway for up to two years, “illogical”. He has asked KiwiRail to explain.

KiwiRail is demanding Christchurch City Council close part of the expressway until $6.5 million worth of safety improvements can be made to the Scruttons Rd rail crossing.
It said the “unsafe” crossing posed the risk of death or serious injury once every thousand years.
