Washable Face Masks

Vanessa from Sunnyhills

How are you all coping with the 2nd Lockdown in Auckland? I know it's hit some families hard. I used my "spare" time sewing face masks for my family. When my friends saw them, they said " I want some of them too". So am selling them for just $8 or 2 for $15 + postage or pick up from Sunnyhills. It's been a great way to use up the material I have stored for many years. And for every mask sold, I am donating $1 to Howick Croquet Club. Please let me know how many you would like. I have attached a photo of me and my granddaughter on the morning of the 2nd lockdown. I have used up all of the bright material Issy & I are wearing but still have plenty of options. Looking forward to helping you keep "covered" from COVID.

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.
