Howick Croquet Club School holiday program Mon 20th - Fri 24th January
Howick Croquet Club are working really hard to introduce the sport of croquet to the youth in our local area. We are running a school holiday program from Monday 20th - Friday 24th January from 1 - 3pm. As we have received a grant from KIWISPORT, this covers the cost of youth green fees and mallets for this program. If you are aged between 12 - 18 and want to find out more about croquet, come along on those days to our clubrooms at 67 Millhouse Drive, Howick. Who knew that croquet is a very strategic sport and can help youth who have challenges like anger management, some physical disabilities, ADHD, PTSD. It is a non gender sport for all ages.
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)
