Featherston Community Garden
We had an enthusiastic group of about twelve at our meeting regarding a sustainable community garden in Featherston. We agreed we'd ask the Community Board to consider allowing our group to kickstart an initial garden on the vacant site. The plants would be in containers (possible low-side skips) to enable them to be moved. We think Featherston needs something showy to attract attention on the Main Street and the try to position us as the sustainable (no-spray) growers centre of the South Wairarapa. The idea would be to start here, then to expand to allotment gardens for interested people in the community. We'll be putting these ideas forward at the Community Pot Luck on Sunday at Anzac Hall, 2-4 PM. Please come and add your support!
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)
