Phillipstown Walks
*What places in Phillipstown are special to you?* 😍
.
Phillipstown Community Hub is planning a guided neighbourhood walk event, and we need your help deciding which ‘world famous in Phillipstown’ spots to visit.
We are interested in any suggestions you have - from sites with an interesting history, all the way to street art that makes you smile (Edmonds Gardens & Bronskis dairy have been popular suggestions so far)!
Help us populate our big walking tour map by dropping your suggestions in the comments below.
For the purposes of this event, we are looking for locations between Hereford St, Aldwins/Ensors Rd, Lismore/Laurence St, and Fitzgerald Ave.
If you would be willing to talk about the spots you suggest on our walk, we would love that too! Let us know in your comment if you are open to sharing your story in person, or fill out this Google Doc forms.gle....
The first Phillipstown Guided Neighbourhood Walk is set for late April/early May. Keep an eye on the @PhillipstownCommunityHub Facebook page for more details. See you there!

Poll: Pedestrian access is being extended to the Ōtakaro Avon River - good idea?
Pedestrian access from one of Christchurch’s favourite streets is being extended all the way to the Ōtakaro Avon River. This new 12m-wide pathway will give you a direct, easy route from the street to the river promenade ... perfect for a stroll, a coffee run, or just soaking up the riverside vibes.
We want to know: In your view, what makes a city people-friendly?
What else should our urban areas be doing to support better community connections?

2025 has been massive. The Luxon-led Government's attacks on workers, on Te Tiriti, on pay equity, on educators, on health workers, and on the public service, have been relentless.
But despite everything thrown at working people, we've also seen some massive wins. We've fought back together with strike action. We've unified with days of action. We have focused on what matters. Make no mistake, 2026 will be wild, and we are ready for it! Source - New Zealand Council of Trade Unions
