Have a beer and help our furry friends!
This coming Friday relax after a hard week at work at the Southern Cross Garden Bar Restaurant (39 Abel Smith St, Te Aro, Wellington).
On the first Friday of the month from 5pm, they tap a keg of delicious and donated beer, you get to pay by Koha (donation), and they donate all the money raised to a local Charity of the Month. This month Outpawed is that Charity!
Spread the word, tell your friends, and pop down on Friday 6th of September to enjoy some delicious beer & supporting a great cause at the same time!
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)
