Adventure Avenue Wander/ Walking Festival
Earlier this month, we hosted an amazing The Walking Festival walk with Avon-Ōtākaro Network guided by tamariki, called Adventure Avenue Wander.
And amazing it is! This walk was a chance to show off all of their hard work, and to show locals (and non-locals!) all of the hidden gems around the Adventure Avenue area. And all of the new plantings. Everyone learned something!
Thanks to Oscar and Hollie, our guides who have worked on the project for a few years (and are now intermediate students), and to Hayley’s dedication, mostly volunteering her own time, to make this all happen!
WE ARE RICHMOND
Red Zone Edge Housing Forum
At the Red Zone Housing Forum, guest speakers covered future Red Zone housing topics, then those attending wrote down what should and shouldn’t be in the Red Zone edge housing areas.
Mother of All Cleanups River Cleanup
Another amazing Mother of All Cleanups along the Avon River. Volunteers from all over came together to clean the river and gather at Riverlution afterwards.
Pickup and Plant at Pareaway Banks Avenue School Entrance
This school walkway at the Northern entrance of Pareawa Banks Avenue School needs tidying. So we ran a working bee!
