Service centre to become one-stop shop for Papanui residents
Christchurch City Council’s Papanui Service Centre will soon become a one-stop shop for people wanting to post letters and pay bills.
Postal services have been offered from the Papanui Service Centre since the start of February, but now agreement has been reached that the centre will become a full agent for NZ Post, meaning it will be able to provide bill payment services.
“We are delighted to be able to expand the range of services we can offer local residents from the Papanui Service Centre,’’ says Council Head of Citizen and Customer Services Sarah Numan.
“It means we will have a convenient one-stop shop where people can access Council customer services, send letters and parcels, and pay bills.’’

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
