Mobile Discovery Wall at Ōrauwhata: Bishopdale Library

Community Development Worker from Bishopdale Community Trust

The Discovery Wall is an interactive exhibition that showcases some of Christchurch City Libraries digitised collection. Composed into a digital mindmap of Christchurch, this unique experience is on a massive touch screen wall located on the ground floor of Tūranga and as well as a mobile version that will tour around to other libraries in the network.

The mobile version of the Discovery Wall will be at Ōrauwhata: Bishopdale Library until the end of May so take this chance to pop in and see it for yourself! 😀

The Discovery Wall is accompanied by a website at discoverywall.nz where the images can also be explored and searched, commented on and shared.

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.
