Open Christchurch: discover our central city's architecture
You're invited to One Christchurch - an opportunity to discover central city architecture through free, one-off access to special buildings, as well as a range of themed walking tours.
As part of the programme, presented by Te Pūtahi and supported by Resene, three inner-city school buildings will open their doors for one day only.
From Japanese-influenced timber architecture and a sky playground to a dining hall steeped in tradition, these buildings are engaging examples of how design impacts the students’ experiences at school.
The programme kicks off on Sunday 30 June with The Cathedral Grammar Junior School and is followed by two other school buildings opening in the weeks that follow: the stunning heritage building, Christ’s College Memorial Dining Hall (4 August); and Ao Tawhiti, Christchurch’s only vertical school (7 September).

🩸 Giving Blood, Plasma and Platelets Saves Lives! 🩸
Just one blood, plasma or platelet donation can make a life-saving difference to the lives of many. Whether you’re a first-time donor or a regular, every donation counts! ❤️
New Zealand is currently short on donors, and to keep up with demand, is having to import blood products from overseas. So, if you can spare an hour (or slightly more) a few times a year, you’d be giving a priceless gift to those in need right here at home.
Let's support each other and those in need - you never know when a loved one may need it.
And remember our Emergency Cards and Tags have space to record your blood type, helping first responders act fast when it matters most!
Have you donated before? Interested to know more?
