This class is the perfect introduction to the ancient craft of jewellery making - in the space of 3.5 hours, Rholene will teach you how to design and craft your very own sterling silver ring. Take it home, wear it, or give it to a friend!

By the end of the workshop, you will know how to design, measure, saw, anneal, shape, solder, texture and polish your own version of a basic ring band. Make yourself a set of stacking rings, a personalised name ring or a textured band. A patina can also be added to give your finished ring an antique look.

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)
.
