CHILDREN & SCREEN TIME

Mike from Bayview

CHILDREN & SCREEN TIME - WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
Free talk offered to schools, parent groups and other community groups by Michael Vaughan, Registered Psychologist

Hi there,
I know that many parents are concerned about the effects of excessive screen time on children. In my private practice (based in Browns Bay), this is the issue that parents are asking about most often.

So I decided to look into the research to learn more about the psychological and physical effects of excessive screen time. I'm now ready to share this information with parents, teachers and community groups, including strategies to help parents navigate the tricky screen time issue at home.

If you'd like to arrange an event, I'm offering a free 1hr. presentation (including Q&A) during February and March - thereafter fee negotiable.

For contact details and further info: kidslink.co.nz...
(Generic flyer attached that could be used for your event)

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
