The move comes after much public debate on the appropriateness of firearms being brought into schools, including when soldiers taught children as young as nine how to assemble and shoot assault rifles at a leadership exercise in Palmerston North last year. However students can still use firearms as part of shooting clubs and competitions. Click here to read the full article and guidelines.
So what do you think of the new rules? Are you for or against them?

According to Nasa, the moon will be in full eclipse - or totality - for 103 minutes. But the moon will enter totality not long before setting in this country. The next such event will not happen again until 2021.The total lunar eclipse will be the result of the sun, moon and earth lining up perfectly.
HOW TO VIEW IT
- You'll need to be as far south as possible, have clear skies, and be in a location where you can see the Moon setting in the south west and the Sun rising in the north east.
- The higher you can get, the better. That's because the Sun will be barely clearing the horizon as the Moon sets in the opposite direction.
- Unfortunately, MetService is predicting Saturday will bring showers or rain in the west and south of the country, heavy for a time over the South Island.
- In Invercargill, there will be five minutes between sunrise at 8:12 and moonset shortly thereafter, with the Moon entirely within Earth's shadow.
- In Dunedin the interval is reduced to four minutes; in Christchurch, three minutes.

The Best Furniture Shop owner Kim Booth grew up in a family of furniture retailers and decided to turn a traditional sales strategy on its head with the launch of the New Brighton store nine years ago. Instead of a plush showroom taking up high-demand real estate space, The Best Furniture Shop has a huge, simple fit-out in a low-rent part of town.
Savings from low-overheads would go straight to customers, with rock-bottom prices every day. Check it out on our website, or instore at 61 Hawke Street, New Brighton.

It comes after news that the number of people in New Zealand able to speak te reo Māori is declining. What do you think? Should it be made compulsory? Do you think this will help retain the language?
Neighbourly's own Sarah Moore has started studying te reo Māori follow her journey here.
The game will not be broadcast on TV so make sure you get yourself to AMI Stadium on August 10!
