ART LESSONS IN ACRYLICS AVAILABLE
I have a Diploma with Honours in Art and Creativity (and a Bachelor of Nursing) and offer art lessons for those wanting to learn to paint in acrylics. Lessons are available some evenings, and weekends, for both children and adults. Classes are usually never more than 3 people and are very reasonably priced at $15 an hour, per person - pay as you go, no fixed term or pay in advance! However even if you want individual lessons the price is still $15 an hour.
There is also the option of paying for a package which includes a canvas and the use of paints and brushes to complete your first painting. Beginners a speciality,
with the aim to introduce you to a hobby you might always have wanted to try!!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
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.
