KidsFest - A Fresh Look At Water

Lincoln Envirotown Coordinator from Lincoln Envirotown

Come on a journey from a raindrop to our rivers. Discover the different natural features that water provides including the animals and plants that live in and around it. Find out why it is so important and how to look after it.

Make all these discoveries through exciting craft and science activities and a trip through the customary tunnel.

The Lincoln High School Sustainability Council have devised several craft activities and simple science experiments for our annual KidsFest Event. This year children are invited to explore fresh water through hands on interactive craft and science, they will learn about the life to be found on and in our water and the importance of this precious resource. This craft morning is truly a community experience with the older students getting as much out of it through their organizing and mentoring as the younger ones doing the activities and the learning.

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.
