Art Workshop in Waikanae

Morag from Waikanae

I have two places left in a short course I'm running from my Waikanae art studio which will introduce you to gold leafing techniques and a range of iridescent and interference paints. If you love a bit of bling and are inspired by the art of Gustav Klimt, these two weekends in Sept/Oct might be just for you. You don't have to have art experience as this is a highly structured and guided course. It's also great for experienced artists as there will be a lot of potential for creativity in developing a work. You bring two gel pens and I'll provide you with all the other materials you'll need to leave the course with an impressive art work.

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.
