Ōtautahi: ANZ Drop denniston

Thursday, May 29, 12:00 PM
ANZ Christchurch Branch
127 Cashel Street
Christchurch Central City, Canterbury, 8081, New Zealand
🥳Come and play some fun games with us in your lunch break🥳 We are playing some fun games in front of ANZ Christchurch Branch including: 🚜 Pin the kiwi under the bulldozer 🔥 Throw the kiwi into the fire 🔨 Whack a kiwi Plus we will have an ANZ + Bathurst wedding photo booth! 🪧 Why are we playing silly games? ANZ is the bank behind Bathurst Resources, the company pushing to blast open a 20 million tonne coal mine on the Denniston Plateau, a precious and unique part of Aotearoa. Over 1,000 people are already demanding: “ANZ - commit to phasing out all banking services to fossil fuel expansion companies (like Bathurst) by 2030.” ✍️ Sign the petition to demand ANZ drop Denniston here: https://350.org.nz/coal/#petition

✨ Kaupapa Agreement for This Action

This action is grounded in creativity, nonviolence, and community power. Together, we're calling out ANZ for backing Bathurst Resources' destructive coal plans on the Denniston Plateau — and building a better future.

At this action, we agree to:

  • Stay public, creative, and non-disruptive — gathering outside the ANZ branch without blocking doors or customer access.
  • Use chalk, costumes, props, flyers, and storytelling to engage the public and invite them to join our action/campaign.
  • Treat everyone — including the public, bank staff, and police — with dignity, respect, and nonviolence.
  • Protect our campaign’s reputation: no paint, glue, or property damage; no occupying or disrupting the bank interior.
  • Keep the focus on ANZ’s role in funding climate destruction, while staying safe and welcoming.

This kaupapa keeps us safe, effective, and powerful. Thank you for standing together for climate justice!
