A white lolly brought into a drug checking clinic in Auckland was found to contain a potentially lethal amount of methamphetamine.

What you need to know:
- The lolly was in Rinda pineapple wrapping.
- It contained approximately 3g of methamphetamine, which is up to 300 regular doses.
- Consuming this much methamphetamine is extremely dangerous and could result in death.
- Ministry of Health are unsure how widespread these contaminated lollies are, so we recommend not eating them.
- It is understood the lolly was in a sealed package that was donated to the Auckland City Mission and that some lollies may have been distributed to people in food parcels.
- People who have consumed them reported an unpleasant chemical taste.

If you or someone you know has eaten one and feels unwell, call 111 immediately.
Symptoms might include:
• Chest pain
• A racing heart
• Seizures

Our family at the Pacific Kids' Learning Digital Showcase at Hoyts Cinemas Sylvia Park 🎥🍿🎞️

Thursday July 18th's showcase was the official launch of 35 specially curated digital stories plus 30 Pacific animated songs, demonstrating to our communities the exciting opportunities that the digital space provides to keep our histories, languages and cultures thriving into the future. A beautiful selection of 2D and 3D children's animations was woven together into a multilingual film, telling our Pasifika stories on the big screen. The collection showcased was co-created by PKL alongside local students, teachers, parents, community knowledge holders, elders and digital creatives.

Congratulations Evo Leota, Theresa Tupuola-Sorenson & Tatiana Marich and their amazing team of animators Elizabeth Kumaran (Liz), Herman Aviu, Carmel Adam, Tom Greentree for yet another job well done for the year and an awesome and successful showcase 👏🏽🙌🏽🎉
