300 Native trees planted in 2 hours in Henderson

Sunil from Henderson

It was great to join the local community in planting native trees by Palomino Esplanade with Project Twin Stream, MPHS Community Trust, the Walsh Trust and staff from Auckland Parks on 20 July.

For more information see link bit.ly...

Under Waitakere City Council we used to have trees for babies project. We planted 2 trees for our younger ones and often go past those trees which are now maturing.

We live in a a beautiful part of the country and we need to look after our native bush and streams and do our bit to protect the environment for the next generation.

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.
