The final chapter of Bayleys Plate Up for a Purpose is here. Curated by Sue Heazlewood of Tangleby Gardens, Entertaining at Home features restaurant-inspired recipes reimagined for the home kitchen, while celebrating a campaign that has raised more than $776,000 for the Christchurch City Mission's Back to School Programme.

Best of all, 100% of proceeds from every book sold will help local tamariki start the school year with confidence.

Buy the book, share a meal, and support a great cause.

The details behind a great kitchen ✨

A beautiful kitchen is more than just the finishes you see. The best-designed spaces combine thoughtful planning, smart storage, practical layouts, and details that make everyday living easier.

This feature from realestate.co.nz explores how great kitchen design goes beyond aesthetics, focusing on the layers, levels, and hidden details that create a space that truly works for the way people live.

Because the most successful kitchens aren’t just designed to look good, they’re designed to be lived in.

📊 REINZ has released its June 2026 market data.

Canterbury’s median house price increased 5.2% year-on-year to $710,000, with properties taking a median of 42 days to sell.

REINZ Chief Executive Lizzy Ryley says buyer activity remained strong across all groups during June, with vendor expectations largely aligned to current market conditions. Auction rooms continued to attract solid interest, while positive sentiment was supported by a strong local economy and ongoing regional investment. Looking ahead, steady winter activity is expected, with momentum anticipated to build as more properties come to market in spring.
