Want to try throw discus, shot, javelin and hammer?
After watching the Olympics did you ever wonder what it is like to throw discus, hammer, shot and javelin? Or the last time you did throw those implements was when you were at school and thought "wouldn't mind giving that a go again". Every Tuesday evening, from 29th October, we coach and train at these throwing events down at the Pakuranga Athletic track in Lloyd Elsmore Park. Its a community activity so no charge and no commitment. We start at 6pm and finish about 7.30pm. Open to all adults over 20 years old. For further info contact Mark on 02102292521.
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)
.
