Children's entertainment room in Christchurch

“We had a fantastic time here! We did the Psycho Motel & Bunker rooms and both were tricky but we all had so much fun and can't wait to come back. Staff were happy, friendly & super welcoming. We highly recommend Escape Rooms! :)”

“Our child has been going to sweet pea for almost a year and has thrived. The teachers are really hands on and always available to discuss their progress and how the day has been. Each day there and new and exciting activities set up and the environment is perfect for busy toddlers and has a really nice homey feeling. Having an excellent chef on staff means that the kids are getting healthy and varied food. We have loved our experience with all of the staff and are excited for our second child to be starting in a couple of months.”

“LOVE LOVE LOVE annabels Avonhead, I moved over to this side of town for the school & preschool. 2 of my children have been there in the past 2 years , my daughter is still there and it’s amazing! The teachers are beautiful , they take their time with every child . My daughter feels comfortable and safe every day . I would highly recommend this preschool and have done to so many people .”

“My 4-year-old boy has been at Tree House for just over a year. He loves going and has grown so many friendships. The teachers are caring and attentive. They are always looking for ways to engage the kids, most recently throughout a dino hunt around the centre.”

“I only have good things to say about Annabel’s - we absolutely love it! Our daughter started in the nursery, then the pre-k & is currently in the kindy, and truly thrives there. The teachers are outstanding- so caring, fun & organised, and have been so amazing helping my daughter transition to each room. There are so many fun activities - singing, dancing, arts, crafts, outdoor fun + more. My son has just started in the nursery & I am excited for him to be starting his Annabel’s journey.”

“I absolutely love shopping here. The store has an amazing selection of high-quality children's items at affordable prices. Everything is clean, well-organised, and in excellent condition. The staff is incredibly friendly and always ready to help, making the whole shopping experience so enjoyable. It’s clear they care about their customers and the items they stock. The ability to provide my items to the store to sell on my behalf makes my life a lot easier. Highly recommend this store to any parents looking for great deals without compromising on quality.”

“This was so much fun! The team were so nice and accomodating with the extra things we needed for my dad to enjoy his time there as well. Thank you for a fun experience!”

“Fantastic staff who go above and beyond for anyone staying there to make rough times alot less stressful absolutely AMAZING”

“My son's been to 3 preschools in Christchurch and these guys are the absolute best. They are the most inclusive, dedicated, and engaged staff we've experienced.”

“We played Echoes of the Damned on Monday morning and absolutely loved it! The 9/10 scare rating lived up to the hype – pretty intense, especially for my partner – but it made the experience even more thrilling. Great atmosphere, clever puzzles, and plenty of scares. Highly recommend for horror fans!”

“We hold an acroyoga jam at Evolve Studio and it was amazing. We were lucky to get this space free one day for our jam. It is close to the CBD and it was easy to get in using the code. The space is super clean and offers fully equipped toilets and there is a kitchen with filtered water. What a gorgeous studio! We could fit 14 people easily and still had plenty of space. Loved the mirrors and the plants. Taryn, the owner, super friendly and was super kind! Can't wait to use this space again. Thank you!”

“Both of our daughters went to Kindercare Wigram from when they were 6months old until they started school. Every one of the teachers and support staff always made us feel welcome each day, staff were always approachable and the communication was amazing. Our girls were loved and cared for each day and their days were full of fun and different learning activities and opportunities. The transition to school from preschool was seamless and they were well prepared for school thanks to the amazing teachers at Kindercare. We have made lifelong friends from families at preschool and my daughters always love going back for a catch up.”

“Awesome team bonding activity. Loaded with fun and is quite competitive. Highly recommend this place. Definitely going again”

“Three Trees has been an amazing preschool! The teachers are friendly and get to know you and your child well, and I love how much time they spend outside. Such a calming centre to walk into, it's been so well designed. We will miss this place once we're at school!!”

“A really wonderful independent cinema, that also have a dvd library with a huuuuge collection! Nice to browse before your film starts too. Definitely worth a visit if you are visiting Christchurch!”

“Beautiful cinema with Cafe and bar. Comfy and spacious seating with large arm rests and drinks holder. Good quality sound and image on a medium sized screen.”

“We had coffee/tea and cake in the lounge, and it was superb. A very nice place to sit in the sun and enjoy life and some history. The staff were fantastic and passionate. Thanks!”

“Fantastic experience, fantastic cafe will be returning”

“Comfortable seats in the theatre, saw an awesome musical here. Great show.”

“My now 5 year old spent over 4 years at Annabel’s before recently starting school, she loved her time there she had great bonds with her teachers and peers. My 1 year old is still in the nursery and he loves his teachers they have great ratios and form a close bond with their key teacher. We have been very happy with Annabel’s and the staff! The new centre manager is doing a great job and is supported by a great team of teachers.”

“Great facility and one of the best places in NZ for our Secondary Schools Cycling event. Thank you Ruapuna Park.”

“Really good place. Awesome atmosphere, food and drinks available, helpful and lovely staff. Was a great night!”

“Beer was great. Music was excellent with great sound systems”

“Awesome place with awesome people. Preston, who seems to run the show, is cool too; always a good chat.”

“Nice venue. Great that we can come over from Diamond Harbour and enjoy some live performances. Loved seeing Joe Bennett talk about King Lear.”

“Stunningly beautiful hotel inside the former Canterbury University. You are surrounded by a historic and arts precinct, there is do much to do right on your doorstop. You can easily walk to everything needed.”

“Highly recommended for everyone in the family. A beautiful free (donations are welcome) museum, filled with far more aircrafts than we initially expected. Lots to read and discover, displays were well put together and the pacing through the exhibits is perfect. If you need a break, there is a simple cafe, a lovely little gift shop and peaceful grounds. Wish we had more time to explore this past visit. We will have to set aside more time the next visit!”

“The most amazing experience at Blood Brothers 4pm Show on Sunday., the show was outstanding. Over and above that, was the extra attention given to me by a lovely usher , having very recently had a foot fracture and I was in a moonboot with crutches. Thank you Maggie for popping my crutches away under my seat for me and getting me a small pillow to put my leg on and also coming back at half time to say you had tried unsuccessfully to find me another seat so that I could put my foot up more comfortably. Your kindness was very much appreciated.”
