Kia ora Spreydon-Cashmere,

What a fantastic year it’s been out here in our ‘hood!
We at the Spreydon-Cashmere Community Board and Council want to thank you all for another amazing year with our one-of-a-kind community!

The opening of the major Quarryman’s Trail cycleway has been such an amazing addition, connecting Halswell to the city, with us in the middle.

Parts of the Heathcote River have been transformed as part of the Heathcote River bank stabilisation.

The beautiful Old Stone House in Cracroft was restored, events like the Hoon Hay Fiesta drew the crowds and we celebrated our green thumbed neighbours at the Edible Gardens Awards.

We are so grateful for all of your support in the community, and we cannot wait to see what 2019 brings for the Spreydon-Cashmere wards.

Meri Kirihimete and happy holidays!

From the Waihoro Spreydon-Cashmere Community Board and the Christchurch City Council

Doses of chlorine being used across Christchurch to ensure drinking water is safe will likely be halved next month after city councillors approved the move.

Cutbacks will be made at 60 per cent of the city's pump stations – 40 per cent already have lower doses – reducing the smell and taste of chlorine, particularly for those nearest to wells.

It will also be welcome relief for those with skin conditions such as eczema that are aggravated by the chemical.

Instead of encouraging people to be overly cautious during the silly season, we wanted to share our injury prevention tips in a more interesting way.

Based on the traditional Christmas song we all know and love, we created a video series featuring 12 weird and not so wonderful injuries we saw from last Christmas, and tips on how to avoid them!

Give our 12 Days of ACC Christmas video series a watch. From everyone at ACC we hope you have a very Merry Christmas and happy new year.
