New youth playspace at Marlborough Park
I hope everyone is had a great Easter :)
Here are a few pictures of the new youth space currently being built above the skatebowl at Marlborough Park, Glenfield.
The work includes a playpiece designed for older primary school/intermediate age youth, to be able to climb up/hangout/view and engage with the adjoining skatepark.
The project will also include balance beams, a mural and fix drainage issues. The exiting swings will be remaining.
Stage 2 is coming later and will upgrade and extend the skatebowl.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
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)
.
