Wainoni is among the bottom 10 suburbs for the vaccine uptake, with 70.2 per cent of the population having had a single dose. Neighbouring Aranui is the least vaccinated suburb in Canterbury and among the lowest in New Zealand, with 59.7 per cent of its residents having received a first dose.
But just 16 people turned out for a vaccination event at Haeata Community Campus on Wednesday – albeit a day blighted by torrential rain and blustery winds.
Principal Peggy Burrows said she was pleased to open the school for Covid-19 vaccinations after being approached by the Canterbury health board about two and a half weeks ago.
“My stance is it has to be a choice. You can’t compel people to, but I’m certainly vaccinated myself and so is my family, and we just provide opportunities because that is what education is about," she says. Continue reading here.

Steve Gee and Jono Turnbull are volunteer firefighters who both work at Connetics (Southern) Ltd in Cromwell, a network contractor that specialises in power installations and maintenance.
While they’re with different brigades - Gee is chief fire officer for Clyde and Turnbull is a recruit for Cromwell - and have very different roles within the business, they say having a co-worker who understands their dual roles is critical.
They’re grateful to work for a company that understands the importance of their role and values their commitment to the community.
Gee and Turnbull are two of the nearly 12,000 Kiwis who volunteer for Fire and Emergency New Zealand and are ready to respond in a crisis.
Their ability to do that depends on workplaces who are willing to be part of the back-up crew.
Stuff’s community newspapers are partnering with Fire and Emergency to recognise the local businesses who support this important work with the Proud Employer mark, which acknowledges the role they play in keeping communities safe by allowing their staff to respond to an incident during working hours.
“The company is very supportive of the community input that Jono has in Cromwell and I have in Clyde,” says Gee.
With his job based in Cromwell, Gee is less likely to be called out during the day, but says volunteering for Fire and Emergency constantly requires juggling responsibilities between his work and home lives. However, he says volunteering is more than worth it.
“People often ask me why I’m involved with Fire and Emergency. It’s because I have a genuine interest and It’s something I can do to give back to the community. There’s also a lot of value in terms of your own personal development. I treat it as a sport, a hobby and a whole lot of other things rolled into one. It keeps me fit, it keeps the brain active, and it keeps me grounded.”
Turnbull volunteered for mountain rescue in the UK and was keen to continuing volunteering in some capacity when he moved to New Zealand. He was thrilled to be accepted as a recruit with the Clyde Brigade.
“It’s a fantastic thing to be involved in,” he says.

Our changing climate poses risks to our natural and built environments. Swiss Re in a global analysis of insurance risk said to “expect climate risks to raise global property premiums by 33-41% between 2020 and 2040”. The potential increase was deemed a direct consequence of our changing climate.

Councillors agreed on Tuesday to close a 1-kilometre section of the road between 748 Avonside Drive and Wainoni Rd, as well as a 100-metre stretch of Kerrs Rd, at some point between 2023 and 2026, depending on the final design.
The planned 8km shared pathway will begin at Barbadoes St in the central city and mostly follow the Avon River before reaching New Brighton.
The council committed to spending $316 million on the Ōtākaro Avon River Corridor in this year's 10-year budget and said back in June that the shared pathway, named the City to Sea pathway, would be built within three years.

The purpose of the web events is to carry the message to newcomers who live in areas where there are no AEA meetings and to strengthen areas where there are sole AEA members. These events are not designed to replace face-to-face meetings. Rather, we hope that face-to-face meetings will grow and increase as a result of having regular web events.

Phillipstown is in!
Join us on the walks to discover our neighbourhood on the 16 and 23 October 2021.
16 October: Phillipstown Walk: living and learning, playing and praying
Stories of people living in the area over time, focusing on the residential stories - including Charleston, the Edmonds' legacy, Te Wai Pounamu College and the three churches (St Peters, Leyden Street and Church of the Good Shepherd), also Lancaster Park, Phillipstown School and KidsFirst Kindergarten (one of the first in Christchurch).
23 October: Phillipstown walk - the changing face of the workplace
Focuses on the industrial and business areas - including Pumphouse, Ernest Adams, Tuck (the first cloud kitchen space in Christchurch), Essex Street - including Quality Bakers, the former Essex Bakery and the former Essex Maternity Home.
An opportunity to learn and share stories and connect with neighbours, community organisations and businesses in the area.
The walks aim to celebrate the history of one of the oldest neighbourhoods of the city as well as the stories of the people who have lived in Philipstown to create and amplify a sense of joy, meaning and belonging.
The walks and the conversation they stimulate will be documented by the Phillipstown Community Centre Charitable Trust to gain a better understanding of the community through neighbourhood information, mapping and story-telling - to collect people's insights and narratives about the Phillipstown area, which may be used for future projects.
These events are perfect for the young, the old, those who have lived here for years, and our newest neighbours as well.
We will hold the walk during drizzle - but don't want us to be miserable. We will review the weather at 9am on the morning and will contact participants via email and/or text if the walks are postponed.
Free but please book your ticket emailing viviana@phillipstown.org.nz
