Building 101: So you want to build a sleep out...

Kylie Klein Nixon Reporter from Homed

Māori exhibit at Canterbury Museum

Kamala Hayman Reporter from The Press

A 28-year-old diorama depicting a Māori family in pre-colonial times has been partially obscured by the Canterbury Museum following mounting complaints. Is it time to rethink how we portray our history in such exhibits, as well as in our statues and monuments?

A man driving his car immediately pulled up along side her without hesitation to help her. What a hero he was! His vehicle had BCITO for apprenticeships well done you kind gentleman. I was attacked a few years ago and to this day still fear dogs and I felt so helpless that I feared going to her rescue. Thankfully this gentleman's intervention stopped it from potentially turning very nasty.
