Looking for a horse to lease of buy.
Hi, We are looking for a cheapish horse for my 13 year old daughter. We are open to leasing or buying but would want to trial the horse first to see that they are a good fit for each other. My daughter has 2 years' experience riding at Waikato Equestrian Centre and we have kept minis for 4 years. The ideal horse would be 15.2 - 16 hh and a gentle hack. The horse would be kept on our lifestyle block and would be well looked after. If you think your horse would fit the bill or you know anybody who might have one please call Connor on 021 706 727
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)
.
