Stollen Schnauzer figurine...

Alan from Beckenham

Some low life has stollen my 87 year old mother-in-laws Schnauzer figurine from her front door. Living in Centuras Road it was visible from the street. If you see one about that looks like it might belong to someone (else!) please let me know. A reward is offered for his return. Many thanks.

Māori exhibit at Canterbury Museum

Kamala Hayman Reporter from The Press

A 28-year-old diorama depicting a Māori family in pre-colonial times has been partially obscured by the Canterbury Museum following mounting complaints. Is it time to rethink how we portray our history in such exhibits, as well as in our statues and monuments?
