Civil Defence

Michael Chubb from Onerahi Volunteer Fire Brigade

This mornings tsunami alarms has highlighted there is some confusion about the alarms their location and how they sound, not to mention what to do about it.

Onerahi does have a community response plan. This has been compiled by a small but dedicated group of individuals.

Coincidently this group is getting together this Thursday (17th) to update the response plan and discuss ways to get more awareness of Civil Defence in general.

All residents are welcome to attend and take part.

This mornings incident highlights that many take little interest on the subject but at 1 in the morning with alarms sounding they suddenly wish they had.

Thursday's meeting will be held in the Fire Brigade Station 1 Handforth Street at 7 pm.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
