Whats going on?

Eoin from Te Awamutu

Interested in whats going on the town boundary at the top of Cambridge road Te Awamutu?

The latest stages of Thorncombe Park Subdivision - 20 new sections with sizes 740sqm to 860sqm



Base Civil have a number of staff from Te Awamutu who are back on the job - they had been making great progress pre lockdown so no major changes to timeframes expected yet with civil works expected to be completed in July this year.



We are trying to minimise the amount of earth moved and at this stage the main earthworks are for the roading - sand is coming in from Pirongia for the base layer.



We have lived in Te Awamutu for 16 years and we have a number of local guys who work for our building company and we are super excited about the way stage 1 has gone and are looking forward to building some great great homes - if you are interested in following progress have a look at :

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.
