We are a 4-part non-auditioned friendly community choir of approximately 25 members.
We are now looking for new members, especially Tenors, but all of whom are always made very welcome. Although it is not essential to be able to read music, if you can sing in tune, you would still be most welcome to join us, as you would soon learn the music via our very helpful conductor.
We perform two or three concerts a year, and our music mostly consists of popular pieces from movies, shows, hit records, etc., all of which we really enjoy singing. We also take part each year in the annual Choral Festival held at St Mary’s Pro-Cathedral, with various other choirs taking part as well. Always a popular event.
We rehearse every Monday evening, with a short break in between, from 7.30-9.30, at the Risingholme Theatre, which can be reached via the driveway at 99 Hawford Road, Opawa (green advertising board on fence) or, via the opening into Risingholme Park at the end of Reeves Road.
We begin our first rehearsal for this year on the Monday evening of 15th February, and if you would like to come along to our rehearsal please feel free to do so. The members are all looking forward to getting back, and I’m sure, to be in the company of the other members, for a good chat before the rehearsal starts!
For any questions you may have about the choir, please contact our President, Jill Willmott, on 388 3235 or, at risingholmesingers@gmail.com
Let's keep working together to make our communities better for everyone while honouring Te Ao Māori.

Royal is the new owner of Malvern House on Hereford St in central Christchurch. The quake-damaged office building is on the city council’s “Dirty 30” list of sites seen as barriers to the rebuild, and in a location compared by one property owner to a war zone.
Malvern House has sat vacant and deteriorating since the quakes. It has attracted squatters and damage including broken windows, plus the label of the city’s most tagged building.
Its sale could help revitalise the dilapidated strip, where neighbours say their improvement efforts have been thwarted by Malvern House’s condition.

The story of Aotearoa’s art history cannot be told without mentioning Bill Hammond’s work, Arts Minister Carmel Sepuloni said of the exalted artist following his death.
Hammond, one of New Zealand’s leading artists, was a legendary figure in his home in the port town of Lyttelton, just outside Christchurch.
One of his best known works, Fall of Icarus, is displayed at the Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetū.
Were you familiar with Hammond, or his work?

Will you check them out before they go? Or have you been already?

Canterbury has been named the fifth most welcoming region in the world in the Booking.com Traveller Review Awards, while Oamaru, Hokitika and Invercargill have been named the most welcoming towns in NZ. They were followed by Cambridge, Picton, Lake Tekapo, Kerikeri, Palmerston North, Paihia and Twizel.
We'd be really keen to hear your thoughts on this based on your own travels around New Zealand. Do you think Canterbury is NZ's most welcoming region? And are these our most welcoming towns?
Where in NZ have you been made to feel particularly welcome on your travels?
As usual, please put 'NFP' in your comment if you don't want it to be included in an article. Cheers.

Towel rail and bath are both a peachy colour. Bath is 1665 long, 740 wide and approx. 450 deep. Has leather-look headrest and very comfortable arm rests. There is also a 900mm vanity white colour with two doors and three draws down one side, it has an Aakronite vanity top, very good quality in the day. Towel rail has already been disconnected, bath & vanity will be out soon.
