Considering a trade as a career - Mount Wellington now has a new Trades Hub
NZMA has opened their huge new trades campus on Great South Road.
The campus was officially opened by the Hon. Jenny Salesa, MP. Here is the story from Māori Television news. A trades qualification with NZMA will help you get a job in the booming building industry.
NZMA offer multiple trade courses and will have a course that suits you. These include: Building Level 3, Electrical Engineering Level 3, Painting & Plastering Level 3, Plumbing, Gas Fitting and Drain Laying Level 3 and Youth Guarantee which is free for 16-19yr olds. NZMA also has a dedicated Careers team that will help you find the right job once you graduate.
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)
