An initiative aimed at getting young people active in ways that are fun and specifically designed for them has started in north west Christchurch. Kia Kori Waitaha is a collaboration between 4 sport entities (Canterbury Cricket, Touch Canterbury, Canterbury Hockey and Squash Canterbury) along with local community organisations. See the Kia Kori Waitaha – Play in Canterbury Facebook page for more information, including details of after-school play events in Northcote (Paddington Reserve on Wednesdays) and Papanui (St James Park on Tuesdays).
