Fairy village at Christchurch forest to be relocated - help needed

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

A touch of magic that sprung up in a Christchurch forest during lockdown has to be relocated.

Hundreds of mini fairy homes appeared on trees at Bottle Lake in April, adding to a small pre-existing collection.

Where the creations first came from remains a mystery, but making them became a popular pastime for children and families during lockdown, and now they need to be moved due to logging in the area.

Christchurch City Council has set up a working bee for 10am on Tuesday 29 September, where families are invited to help with the relocation.

“They’ve brought a touch of magic to the forest,’’ forest ranger Warren Hunt said.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
