Pohutukawa Singers concerts Fri Aug 21 and Sun Aug23

Moira from Birkenhead

Albany based choir, Pohutukawa Singers, is looking forward to giving its first post-lockdown concert this month. There are two performances.

The first is an evening concert at 7.30pm on Friday 21 August at the Albany Presbyterian Church, 539, Albany Highway (opposite Albany Senior High).

The second is an afternoon performance at 4.00pm on Sunday 23 August at St Chad's Church, 7 Matua Road, Huapai/Kumeu

The programme will include a variety of musical genres and song styles, mainly from the 20th century but with a few from much earlier times. In particular this concert will feature a selection of familiar songs by George and Ira Gershwin as well as another from the same era written by Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein.

We welcome enquiries from anyone interested in coming to either of these performances for a varied programme of song. Post-concert refreshments are included in the ticket price. Pre sales $15 per adult or door sales $20. Accompanied children - gold coin donation. Email - carrieturner4nz@gmail.com or phone Geoff 478 1601 or 021 1706590

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)
.
