Volunteers Needed for Friday Street Food Market

Magdalene from Aidanfield

Hi Neighbours,

Friday Street Food Market at Cathedral Square is organizing some entertainment for kids this Friday, 20 Jul, and a few volunteers are needed to help supervise the bouncy castle, treasure hunt and lolly scramble. You will be rewarded with a free meal of your choice from any of the Food Vendors at the market. So, if you think you can:

☆ spare a couple hours of your precious time or perhaps getting your children to volunteer
☆ are not afraid to mingle around and have some fun with the kids
☆ love to try some yummy international food;
then message me by Tuesday, 17 July.

Here's the details of the volunteering hours:
Treasure Hunt & Lolly Scramble:
11.30am to 1.30pm - 1 volunteer
5pm to 7pm - 1 volunteer

Bouncy Castle:
4 to 8pm - 1 volunteer
Or alternatively
4 to 6pm - 1 volunteer
6 to 8pm -.1 volunteer

Cheers
Magdalene

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.
