  1. Christchurch – On 7th December, Sikh Community got together and organised a parade as part of the 67th annual Santa Parade in Christchurch for the first time. The community people felt that it was a great opportunity for Sikhs to be involved in such an event to widen their identity. The community had a great fun with so many other multicultural communities participating in the event as well. The community participating in Christchurch santa parade 2014 cheared while raising salogans, jakaras and wishing marry Christmas to the fellow New Zealanders. The parade was led by five Singhs who represented the collective leadership of Sikh community in all fields. All the efforts were made by the Sikh Youth. There was no involvement of any Gurdwara committee and the community was thankful to their fellow brothers and sisters who helped and did participate in the Parade. Each year the parade gets bigger and brighter as both children and adults (over 120,000 people) line up the streets to watch the spectacular parade, their favourite cartoon characters, animals, clowns, marching bands, dancing fairies, celebrities and so much more. This was the first time the Sikh community in Christchurch has done something like this and they hope to continue this every year making the parade bigger and better. It was a proud moment for us all, proud to be Sikhs and proud to be promoting our country. Source: http://singhstation.net/2014/12/first-time-nz-sikhs-participate-santa-parade-christchurch/
