Snow Days
Snow falls on Christchurch and the Port Hills most winters without much disruption, but every once in a while a major storm will hit the region and cause problems for everyone. Snow Days records these big events and links to some wonderful photographs from our Digital Resources.
Fendalton Park
Fendalton Park is a Christchurch City Council sports park of five hectares located at the north end of Fendalton Road in Christchurch. It opened in the late 1930s and was extended in the mid 1940s.
Emigration
Our emigration related digitised resources include ship-board diaries and passenger lists for ships to Canterbury which carried assisted immigrants organised by the Canterbury Provincial Government from 1856-1870, and the Central Government from 1870-1874.
