SeniorNet Kapiti Open Days Tomorrow and Saturday
Do you (or a friend, neighbour or family member) sometimes struggle to cope with your laptop, PC, smart phone or tablet?
Are you still nervous about signing up for Internet Banking or any of the many other services that we are now encouraged to access electronically?
Would you like to learn how to recognise and avoid scams or would you like to explore CHATGPT?
Maybe you've never done much computing and need to start with the basics? Or are you a regular user and just want to learn how to get the most out of your device or stay up-to-date with new developments?
We deal with these issues all the time at SeniorNet and our friendly tutors are always willing to go the extra mile to help. With a comprehensive programme of courses and workshops coming up in Term 3, now is a good time to get started!
Our friendly tutors will be available to talk to you about how SeniorNet can help tomorrow at Coastlands (at the entrance near Westpac) from 9.00 am to 4.00 pm and at our
Learning Centre at 200 Matai Road, Raumati Beach, on Saturday from 10.00am to 2.00pm.
We would love to see you. You can find more information at kapiti.seniornet.nz or email us at: kapiti@seniornet.nz
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.
