Community News for this week!šŸ˜‰

Bridie Lancaster-Butcher —

Here is the latest community news for this week!

Good Afternoon,

Tsunami Siren Testing: Sunday 1st of April at 11am

On Sunday, 1st of April at 11am the tsunami sirens installed along Christchurchā€™s coastline from Brooklands to Taylors Mistake will be tested as part of a biannual testing exercise to coincide with daylight savings.

The sirens will sound for up to three minutes and can usually be heard a few blocks from the coastline.

If you live near the coast, itā€™s a good time to check whether you are in a tsunami evacuation zone and to work out a plan with your family.

Rawhiti Pippin Unit

Join the funā€¦

Being a Pippin with GirlGuiding NZ is a very popular choice for 5 and 6 year old girls and it is great to be able to offer the opportunity to more girls to join our Rawhiti Pippin Unit ā€“ Thursdays 4.45-5.45pm at All Saints Church, 305 New Brighton Rd.

Guiding is about learning, developing self-confidence, making new friends and of course, having lots of fun outside school!

Our programmes are provided in a fun, safe environment and girls get together each week with girls their own age to do lots of cool stuff like discovering nature, visiting interesting places, making crafts, playing games and more.

If you have a 5 or 6 year old daughter who likes to have fun then contact
Jenny Brawley ph. 0220542093 or visit
