Merry Christmas and a joyous festive season
Greetings for Christmas and festive season.
It has been a privilege for me to be one of the board members on the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewoord ward. This has given me the opportunity to participate in discussions, and decisions, impacting us all in our community.
Some of the highlights in 2017 included the reopening of Bishopdale Library, completion of Burnside Park fitness trail, opening of free BBQ station at Burnside park (kindly donated by Lions club). The F-W-H community board continues to strive to get the best value for ratepayers' funds.
It was an additional honour to be one of the representatives of the city council - representing the people of Christchurch - on the Riccarton House & Bush Trust.
I look forward to continuing to work for you at FWH community board in 2018. Best wishes
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)
.
