Off to a busy March
Hi Neighbours
Time is flying as we head into Mad March, the traffic is chaotic. Don't forget Friday 8th March is International Woman's Day. We will be celebrating it at Briargate with a BBQ, purple plates, cups and balloons. Let us know how you will be celebrating and if you will be wearing purple.
Come and join some of our residents at Bayview Community Centre Friday 15th March from 10-12 for some arts and crafts. If you are a caregiver for an elderly relative or friend, or are looking after someone with dementia, join us for a tea/coffee while your loved one enjoys some art and companionship. Phone me on 444-4484 or email info@briargate.co.nz to book a space which is limited.
What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
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)
.
