Get Active 2020
Waipā District Libraries Get Active campaign is on again!
We're encouraging Waipā residents to Get Active - with some incentives along the way.
The campaign, Get Active 2020, will run from 14 September to 14 November.
You can collect an activity passport from your library from Friday 11 September.
The passport contains all the information you will need to collect stamps for your passport. Stamps can be collected by attending library events and events/classes at participating providers. Details are inside the passport and included below with more information and links.
Major prizes can be won at each library, with incentive prizes along the way (drawstring bags and drink bottles). Our thanks to our sponsors Club Waipa in Te Awamutu and Anytime Fitness Cambridge. Both are also providing classes which can earn vouchers/stamps.
Anyone who wishes to participate is encouraged to register (right) so that they can receive class reminders and updates to the programme or providers.

Open to Waipa residents.
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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?
More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.
Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.

Poll: Do you think this farming-solar combo idea will be popular?
It’s farming, but not as we know it.
Sheep are grazing under solar panels in a Waikato first that could become more common as farmers look to diversify their incomes.
