Christchurch Mayor Lianne Dalziel says she would not have championed selling council land to the Ministry of Education had she known it would "exclude" families from two local high schools.

Echoing public opposition against proposed enrolment zone changes, Dalziel said in-zone suburbs – Shirley, Avonside, Dallington, Edgeware and Richmond – should not be excluded when Avonside Girls' and Shirley Boys' high schools relocate to a new, shared campus on the QEII Park site in 2019.
