Happy Halloween ... papatoetoe/manukau
Hi papatoetoe neighbours
As a parent every year it’s a bit daunting sending out children trick or treating. Mine never go on their own. But sometimes they are disappointed not many neighbours put candy out. I know not everyone does it, that’s cool... it’s for the kids. This year I thought I would ask to save time, which houses in papatoetoe are putting out candy for the kids?
My house is TOMORROW should any other parents be looking for the trick or treat houses for their kids.
We will have Halloween balloons out at the letterbox so others know.
Our address: 114 carruth road, papatoetoe. Witches and wizards ... Welcome! Beware of zombie ninjas 💀
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)
.
