From columnist Mike Yardley:

OPINION: You may recall that last year Christchurch residents trashed the standard of driving in the city in the Quality of Life Survey.

No other major city blasted the prevalence of substandard driving quite like Christchurch.

We seem to be the self-confessed, self-flagellating dangerous driving capital of New Zealand.

I wouldn’t be surprised if next month’s annual survey results see Christchurch retaining its grip on that inglorious title.

Our point of difference - We are a Christ-Centred, student oriented school. Our ‘Why’ is to offer families a holistic education for their children, focusing on Character, Excellence and Service – for the glory of God.

Middleton Grange School provides a first-rate general education with academic results of the highest quality, and we do this by providing an environment in which the Biblical truths of Jesus Christ are taught and lived.

We see learning as holistic; it aims to instruct the mind, shape the heart and prepare the hands for service.

How Addictive Eaters Anonymous works

Members of Addictive Eaters Anonymous (AEA) achieve sobriety by sharing their experience, strength and hope with each other and living the Twelve Step programme of recovery as a way of life. By regular attendance at AEA meetings, getting a sponsor, working the steps, keeping in contact with sober members, and carrying the message of recovery to the still suffering addictive eater, members are freed from addictive eating and the obsession with food.

Newcomers sometimes struggle to understand how AEA works. There are no rules and no one appears to be in charge. No one seems to tell anyone else what to do. This is because AEA members simply share what has worked for them. They are guided by the the Twelve Traditions of Addictive Eaters Anonymous. Members have found from their own experience that change must come from within and cannot be forced upon another person. At the heart of the AEA programme is the spiritual concept of surrender. When a newcomer is ready and asks a member for help, the following suggestions are generally made to them:
