Nature and Oteha Valley Rd
I have just seen a heart warming sight and felt the need to share it ..
Traffic along Oteha Rd came to a total stop this morning to allow a determined Mother duck and her eight tiny ducklings to cross the road. Everyone just waited until the small entourage waddled safely across the killer Rd , even better than that was all the faces that were watching from our cars and a large truck were smiling in support .
What a wonderous way to start a Wednesday
I salute you my fellow citizens
Go well Mummy Duck and stay safe
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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
