Heidi Rose from Wesley Primary School

Kia ora neighbours! Wesley Primary School is a multicultural learning environment, situated on the corner of Potter Ave and Holdsworth Ave and O'Donnell Ave. We celebrate the diversity of the learners within our school and believe in building strong relationships with our parents/whanau to ensure student success. We have e-learning classes where chromebooks and iPads are used to enhance student learning, run the Garden To Table programme and have a flourishing chess club. We offer a wide range of learning opportunities for students both in class and at break times, such as the Perceptual Motor Programme (movement and language programme) PMP, fitness club with Active Families, cultural and sports groups, lego and games club, dance group etc. We also run programmes for parents/families, such as Healthy Eating Cooking Classes, fitness and parenting classes. We run a Homework Help Club after school where Minter Ellison Rudd Watt lawyers come and work with our students every week. We're a community school with a big heart for our families/whanau.

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.
