Speed limits around schools to be lowered
Christchurch’s rangatahi (children) will have a safer time getting to and from school after city councillors voted to cut speed limits on nearly 2000 streets.
Drivers travelling in school zones can expect a limit of 30kph or 40kph in surrounding neighbourhoods.
Councillors voted nine to three in favour of the reductions as part of a speed management plan for the city discussed at a meeting on Wednesday.

Addictive Eaters Anonymous
What is Addictive Eaters Anonymous?
Addictive Eaters Anonymous (AEA) is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from addictive eating.
AEA has members who have suffered from anorexia, bulimia and binge eating. Many have been underweight, overweight or obese; others were people of average weight yet suffered with an obsession with food. Members may have used exercise and other substances to try and control their weight. Before coming to AEA, members found that they were powerless over food, and unable to stop the food obsession.
