Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the Conversations column of your local paper.

New traffic lights for Kepa Road

Lin from Kohimarama

My husband has read on a recent Facebook page that in the next few weeks work will begin on erecting new traffic lights on the corner of Kupe Street and Kepa Road! Apparently, this is estimated to take a few months!
This is madness!! As if the raised pedestrian hump is not enough to slow traffic down on this main thoroughfare, the addition of (totally unnecessary) traffic lights will increase the problem tenfold. Who on earth has approved this and why is it happening? I think we locals deserve an explanation.
