Hillcrest High School Rowing

Dianne from Hillcrest

There was a good turnout at the first 'have a go' day for new rowers on Saturday. There is a further opportunity this coming Saturday, 30th May, at 10am, at Hamilton Rowing Club, Grantham Street.

If you have a teen who attends HHS (or a year 8 who is starting at HHS in 2021), and is interested in rowing, come along and have a go. The school rowing team are looking for new members - novices, experienced rowers, and coxswains. Winter training is underway, with camps coming up. www.youtube.com...

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)
