我被邀請去藝術館 The Ａrt Ｇallery入口處的大廳，6月13號星期天下午1:00~2:00去教一堂太極拳。是6月份的大眾活動之一。
參加者應該全部都是新生。
藝術館說他們上次辦瑜伽班有80多人參加，就不知道太極拳班會有多少人參加?
不知道您是否練太極拳呢？或認識打太極拳的朋友，到時候可幫忙一起去，站在第1排帶著練，後面的人才比較好跟。會的人多，氣場才會更好。
我已經把楊氏太極拳的八式又再簡化更動了一些，變成比較適合初學者可以大致體驗一下太極拳，有前進及後退。當然初學者是不可能在一堂課學會太極拳的，就是希望他們體驗一下太極的剛柔並濟。
如果您打太極拳，願意幫忙的話，或有認識這樣的朋友，請告知您的朋友，請加我的微信，我的微信號是sandyjsky
如果有人願意幫忙，可否請於這個星期天，6月6號的早上10:00~11:00來我們Aidanfield家，我稍微解釋一下，調整過的簡單楊氏太極拳是什麼樣？大家練一下。
謝謝您的幫忙。

It contrasts to this week's heavy rain event, which caused significant flooding in some parts of Canterbury, but not in Flockton Basin.
Many put this down to the fact the Christchurch City Council has spent tens of millions of dollars in the past five years protecting those areas from flood waters.

The Christchurch Night Market at the Bush Inn Centre in Riccarton is the city’s latest night market, offering a range of food, drink, crafts and other quirky items.
The market runs every Saturday from 6pm to 11pm and has more than 100 stalls ranging from food to crafts and entertainment, and is continuing to grow week on week.
Torrential rain and wind for the Canterbury region in recent days forced the market to cancel last Saturday, but its stallholders, organisers and regular visitors are ready to make up for lost time in the next rendition this coming Saturday.

Kiwi startup My Little Pub is taking backyard beers to a new level with their mini Irish, English and Scottish-themed pubs.
The business idea, hatched during the Covid-19 pandemic, came after Christchurch interior designer and My Little Pub founder Steve Rosling was asked by a friend to build a pub with Guinness on tap in his backyard, so he never had to leave home for his favourite draught again.
What do we think folks?

As a mostly volunteer-led organisation, our members know first hand the value and impact that a single volunteer can make in our communities. Imagine then how much can be achieved when several volunteers or even an entire street or neighbourhood decide to work together to achieve the same goal!
Whether you plan to coordinate your own volunteer driven activity, take part in one that’s already been setup, participate in National Volunteer Week (20-26 June), or simply show your own volunteers some extra love this month, know that every bit of effort to give back is a priceless investment in all of our futures.

If you can’t handle the heat, get a new kitchen.
The Christchurch City Mission’s social enterprise, Thrive Catering, is relieved to have moved to a new state-of-the-art commercial kitchen as it continues to provide cooking classes and other essential lessons to Christchurch’s most vulnerable.
Thrive offers work experience courses for City Mission clients who are trying to get back on their feet. They are given valuable cooking lessons and other life skills to better their prospects for the future, when the mission no longer provides direct support for them.
The charity's Hereford St base kitchen had become too small, meaning course capacity was limited and many were missing out on learning vital skills.

Severe flooding is now affecting Akaroa on Canterbury’s Banks Peninsula after more rain has fallen in the last two days than it has so far this year.
The worst of the flooding is around the recreation ground and people have been asked to avoid travelling through the area.
State Highway 75, the main road to Akaroa, is closed between Birdlings Flat and Barrys Bay, cutting off Little River, where the local school was evacuated on Monday. Akaroa residents are also being asked to conserve water.
The National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (Niwa) is reporting that 188 millimetres of rain has fallen in Akaroa between 9am on Saturday and 9am on Monday.
Have you been affected by the terrible weather?
