Postbox smashed

Lisa from Sockburn

I’m in Craven Street and this morning at 5:17am, “they” decided to smash my postbox, drive over my rose bushes and smash part of my front wall down. Not sure if anyone else got “hit” but just thought I would share my experience.

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.
