Tokoroa Forestlands Toastmasters

Julian Neighbourly Lead from South Waikato District

Good afternoon Tokoroa
I have been involved in the reforming of the Toastmaster club in Tokoroa as it has so many benefits to the community. People mostly start with Toastmasters to gain confidence speaking, but then they find that it is the ultimate interactive entertainment, since speakers topics can be about anything under the sun, I have heard about hobbies, interests and epic stories. We also have loads of fun with our word of the night and impromptu speaking segment, which can be really good practice thinking on your feet. We meet fortnightly on Thursday night 7pm at Amisfeild school library, Moffat road, we are meeting this Thursday night, I am really excited and looking forward to seeing you all there the more the merrier. For more information we have a very active facebook page Tokoroa Forestlands Toastmasters or I can be contacted on 022 3534654.
Thank you Tokoroa.

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.
