Poll: Should schools be able to have rules on hair length?

Josephine Franks Reporter from Central Leader

A Year 9 Auckland Grammar schoolboy is taking the school to court after he was stood down over the length of his hair.

James Hunt, 13, wants the school to change its rule which states students' hair has to be above the collar.

Do you think schools should be able to dictate how long students have their hair?

Please add NP if you do not wish for your comment to be in print.

Poll: Should you ask before planting tall shrubs/trees near your property line?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It may be fine now but in a few years trees can block out light or views for neighbours.

Do you think neighbours should ask before they go ahead and plant these?
