Christmas Display - Christmas Lights Trail

Graham from Owhata

This Christmas, Victory Church Rotorua - 39 Old Taupo Road, have entered the 'The Professionals Christmas and New Year Lights Spectacular'. It kicks off this Friday and we are really excited about it. Lots of hard work and commitment has gone into it, but the display is going to be amazing.
Along with the lights and decorations, there will be additional extras so that the atmosphere is warm and inviting such as live music and entertainment, hot chocolate and goodies, baking and more.
Its going to be an awesome family atmosphere.

You are all very welcome to come along and support us.

The weekends festivities are going to continue with a concert on Saturday night at 7pm by awesome bands from Hamilton.

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)
.
