We are settled in our wonderful new shop at 52;Vanguard St. It’s been a mission and I would like to publicly thank all my staff for the patience and extremely hard work while we navigated all the changes. Also thank you to the public for your continued support.
This week we have half price on all our books plus a wonderful selection of kids books at 5 for $1.
Come on in and check out our new store and get some holiday boredom busters for the kids, including a huge selection of dress ups.
We have wonderful winter clothing going out daily, kids, womens and men’s. Plus check out our designer, woollen and merino rack.
Our new store hours are Monday- Friday 9-5& Sunday 10-4.
Hope to see you in store real soon.
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)
.
