David from Avonside - Dallington

The Dallington Community Trust has organised a Day Trip to Hanmer Springs for Wednesday 27th September.

There are a few tickets left which will be sold on a first come first served basis.
Tickets must be pre-purchased and will cost just $10 for the bus ride, which will depart from Dallington at 9.30am and return by 5.30pm.

This will give you around 4 hours in Hanmer Springs to do whatever you want. You might like to do the Heritage Forest Walk, or some shopping therapy, or just relax in the hot pools (Group entry to the Hot Pools costs from $20 per person)

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)
.
