Songkran Festival
Celebrate the traditional Thai New Year!


Songkran, the traditional Thai New Year, is celebrated nationwide in Thailand, usually from 13 to 15 April.

One part of the celebration is religious, marked by merit-making at local temples, ceremonial bathing of Buddha images as a symbol of homage, sprinkling parents’ or elders’ palms with a few drops of perfumed water as a demonstration of love and respect, and ceremonies to pay respects to members of our families, and friends, who have passed away.

Other parts of Songkran are fun-filled, with good-natured water throwing, cultural performances, music, dance, sports, and games.

Here in Christchurch, at Wat Buddha Samakhee, we will gather to observe the occasion on Sunday 14 April 2019 with monster Thai food fair, Thai music and dance, lucky dip, and Miss Songkran beauty contest.

The Songkran Festival Organising Committee cordially invites you, your family, and friends, to join with the local Thai community to celebrate Songkran.

When:
14 April 2019
10am to 3pm

Venue:
Thai Buddhist Temple (Wat Buddha Samakhee)
359 Marshland Road

Christchurch

Pricing: Free

Hi neighbours!
For a lot of us, the idea of a 'fun day' doesn't sit well so soon after the mass shootings. However, as we've seen around the city in so many displays of unity, community is essential. Join us this Sunday, from 1-3pm at Sockburn Park, to share community together. Yes, there will be fun things on offer, especially for our tamariki, and there will also be spaces to simply be together, share a hug, some kai, some time. We hope you can join us!

Three teenagers are planning a march in Christchurch this weekend to "spread love" in the city after Friday's tragic shootings.

St Andrew's College students Ella Clearwater, Marshall Setu and Manaia Butler, all 16, are organising the March for Love event on Saturday at North Hagley Park.

Rolleston Ave would close so the group could march from North Hagley Park to the flowers outside the botanic gardens. The march will start at 10am.

Scott Esdaile is organising another event called Remember Those Who Lost Their Lives 15-3-19 on Sunday from 5pm to 7pm, also at North Hagley Park.

The event was originally planned for Tuesday in Cathedral Square but it was postponed until Thursday, then again until Saturday, out of respect for the Muslim community.
