Make a SPLASH in MARCH and help save the Carterton Indoor Pool!
Members of the CARTERTON INDOOR POOL PROJECT invite swimmers from all around the world to make a splash and participate in the Central ITM Big Swim during MARCH. The event is part of a major community fundraising effort to help save the Carterton Indoor Swimming Pool.
The aim of the CENTRAL ITM Big Swim is to collectively swim a cumulative total of one million metres to raise one million dollars. We're doing this through individual efforts and challenge events, as well as a postal swim, which can be done at any time in March from anywhere in the world.
Please support this fundraiser by helping us get the word out, or even take part yourself, to ensure the Southern Wairarapa community has access to an all year round swimming facility.

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)
.
