Seatoun Arts & Crafts ‘Celebration of Fibre’ evening

Kit from Seatoun

The SAC committee is pleased to invite you to an evening where we will show a DVD of NZ Fibre Art.
The DVD was directed by Peter Coates, a well known artist and film producer/director who, throughout his long career, has had a huge role in promoting and celebrating art and craft of all varieties both in NZ and overseas. Peter was our guest speaker back in April, and donated the DVD to the Club.

We were sad to have had to postpone our Annual Exhibition and Sale of work, scheduled for the end of October, because of Covid restrictions. This was special as it would have been our 50th exhibition. We plan to hold it next year Covid permitting!

We are pleased to invite you to come and view this DVD….. Seatoun Village Hall, Wednesday 20th October, 7.30pm.
Please log in with your Covid Ap, or record your presence in the log provided, wear your mask, and seating will be spaced.

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.
