Awesome party venue and experience

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

We just had my son’s birthday party at the best venue. Beyond The Box Escape Rooms and VR Experience was awesome, amazing, hilarious and fun.
$35 per person for the escape room. It’s an hour trying to figure out how to get out. Or free watching someone else trying to get out. And you can hire the VR and games room for $150 for an hour.
There are heaps of games and puzzles to keep everyone occupied and entertained. We loved it.
Check it out. They’re at 105 Market St North, Hastings, and you can visit their Facebook page or website www.btbescaperooms.co.nz... for details.
You can also hire the VR experience for your event at your own venue. It would make for a great fundraiser. Any schools interested? Or charities?

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.
