What do you think about school donation incentives?

Mandy Te Reporter from Manukau Courier

Hi neighbours, a school's tablet giveaway has come under fire by a parent. Elm Park School decided to create a Samsung Tablet giveaway for parents who paid their school donation early. One parent said it was a "slap in the face" for parents who could not afford to pay the donation. What are your thoughts on this?

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.

Dead cat

Salima from Goodwood Heights

I saw a dead cat on Everglade Drive this morning near the crossing of Keri Anne place. It had been placed near the pavement. Black and white colour. Young. Did not look like it had been dead too long. If you know anyone who is looking for a cat, please inform.
