🚸 Help Us Keep Our Kids Safe! 🚸
The Waitākiri School Board, staff and many of our parents are really concerned about the safety of our tamariki on the roads around school.
We’ve been working with NZTA and Christchurch City Council to push for safety improvements — especially at the Burwood Rd/QEII Drive/Travis Road and Burwood/Mairehau Roads intersections, as well as directly outside of school.
One of the biggest roadblocks is that both NZTA and CCC need more data to back up making changes.
This is where you can help!
If you’ve witnessed or been involved in any accidents or near misses in these areas, please email us at:
office@waitakiri.school.nz
Or please phone our school office 03 383 2736 anytime (you can leave a message).
Your experiences can help us make a strong case for change.
Thanks so much for your support — every bit of info helps make our roads safer for our kids.

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?
Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
