EcoFest North & COVID 19

The Team from

Kia Ora koutou! Most of our events are going ahead as planned at this stage, and are taking place outdoor, mainly in nature, in a small group setting. We would like to reassure you that we support all actions to protect community health and closely monitor the Ministry of Health guidelines about COVID-19. If an event is cancelled, we inform all who registered and update our website. If planning to attend an event, please follow current recommendations, including:
- not to attend an event if you are feeling unwell, have been in, or transited through countries with high infection rates, or have been in close contact with someone confirmed with COVID-19 in the past 14 days
- be conscious to reduce touching your face, shaking hands, close contact greetings
practice good hygiene – cough into your elbow, wash hands for 20 seconds before eating, and after using the bathroom or touching surfaces that are used by many.

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.
