Kia ora koutou, It’s Natalie here from Whakaata Māori (formerly Māori TV) and I’m excited to tell you about this fabulous new TV show called "West Coasters".

It's an intimate documentary series that gives us a peek into the lives of a Māori community here in the rugged Te Tai ō Poutini region of the South Island. What sets it apart is its authenticity, showcasing their deep connection to the land and their dreams for the future. The Arahura River, flowing through their ancestral lands with its revered pounamu, plays a central role. It's a show that'll truly move you – don't miss it !

West Coasters – Mane Monday 7.30pm on Whakaata Māori or streaming on Māori+

This photograph from the Press Historic Collection was taken on Armagh St in central Christchurch at 2pm on May 14, 1971, when the number of cars was unusual for that time of the day. It was the school holidays and traffic had been particularly heavy.

Traffic and road safety are still big talking points in Christchurch. On Monday, the city council proposed dropping speeds on vast chunks of Christchurch roads to 30 or 40kph - and some to even 10kph - to improve safety.

Click here to read reporter Tina Law’s full story (subscription required) on that proposal, or find more information on the council’s website here and tell us what you think in the comments below.
