Diwali celebrations at WestCity
Join us at WestCity this Saturday to celebrate Diwali. We will have a henna artist on hand and a Diwali inspired craft activity featuring tea light candle holders that kids can decorate with beautiful gems and take home along with electric tea light candles so they can celebrate the Festival of Lights in true fashion. We will also have colouring in for the little ones to keep them entertained.
What is Diwali? Diwali, also known as Deepavali, or the Festival of Lights, is a popular Hindu festival. It signifies the triumph of light over darkness, good over evil, and renewal of life.
We hope you can join us!
Where: WestCity Waitakere

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)
.
