We'll meet again 💚

Mari from Cockle Bay

12 August was the last time we danced together at 'Dance Yourself Happy' in All Saints' Community Centre, and despite all tightly crossed fingers and toes, we won't be able to return for any of the last three Thursday sessions. It is sad news, but let's not let that get us down! 🤗

Like D:ream said, things can only get better. Let's set our sights to 2022 and see what it brings. While waiting, let's cue up some amazing dance playlists from Spotify and Youtube 🎶 and tune into live DJ sets over Mixcloud and Twitch or wherever they pop up 💿🎧💿 Let's introduce more moments of happiness into our lives by dancing 💃🕺 – in the home office after a frustrating Teams meeting, during the lunch break between the sandwich and the cuppa, while doing the cleanup after dinner, on Friday after clocking off... the floor is yours! I have absolutely loved every second of dancing with you in 2021 💚

Here's an ode to the next time:

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.
