Congratulations to the ARL Lawyers scholarship recipients!
The ARL Lawyers Academic Excellence Scholarship programme has expanded. Traditionally, this scholarship has been awarded to High Valley High School. Last year, ARL Lawyers expanded the programme to include Naenae College and Wainuiomata High School.
The partnership congratulates Joseph Quinlan, from Wainuiomata High School, Safari Hynes from Hutt Valley High School, and Wesley Tanuvasa from Naenae College on being awarded the scholarship for all-round excellence in their studies.
All three students are studying at Victoria University of Wellington in 2019. Joseph is interested in Employment Law, Safari is interested in Law along with Public Policy and Te Reo, and Wesley is interested in Commercial Law.
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)
.
