MAKE YOUR OLD AND FOREIGN MONEY WORK FOR OUR KIDS

Bulletin Editor from Karori Lions Club

Bring along your pennies, half-crowns, five cent pieces, pound notes and all…
Your euros, USD, AUD, and Ringgits….
(Current NZ money will also be gratefully received 😊 )
Please place them in the newly refurbished “Heads up for Kids” box at the Karori New World exit – to convert old money and foreign money to real NZ$$.
The proceeds from this nation-wide Lions programme are used to provide a helping hand for young people to engage in an experience or activity that will assist their academic, physical, creative, and leadership development to enable them to establish life goals, follow their dreams, and reach their full potential.
Activities like: Outward Bound, Sir Edmund Hillary Outdoor Pursuits Centre, Spirit of Adventure and various other New Zealand based educational and leadership programmes.
Please have a rummage at home to unearth these silent treasures – you’ll have fun doing it!

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)
.
