Rock Painting classes with Cynthia
Such a great idea for families to play together and as a birthday art class or for a special occassion
Rock Painting
Cynthia was inspired by a local rock artist to start painting rocks as a hobby and it has turned into so much more. Her house is often full of people painting rocks and discovering talent that they didn’t even know they had.She loves to facilitate classes for children, teens or adults and will provide everything you need to have a good play. You can bring rocks if you have special ones you’d like to work with. She teaches in 2-hour blocks and the last 30 minutes are for spraying and drying your projects. Children’s groups are limited to 4 who must be accompanied by an adult. Sessions are $115 for 2-3 and $140 for 4-5.

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)
