Activities include: running, jumping, throwing, agility etc.
The programme starts on Tuesday 16th February and runs on consecutive Tuesdays until (and including) Tuesday 23 March.

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)
.
