THOMAS AND FRIENDS
THOMAS AND FRIENDS will be at the RANGIORA LIBRARY as part of KIDSFEST from Monday 12th July till Friday 16th July from 10 am to 4 pm daily. Children will be able to drive Thomas or one of his friends on the large layout for only 50 cents for 4 mins. There will also be model railway diorama kits for sale at only $10 each for children to make up. The kits consist of a small base board with track, 4 trees, a bag of grass, and 3 building kits. This is a great activity for children and adults to do together. Model railway is a great family hobby for everyone to enjoy at any time.
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)
