Have a go at lawn bowls
October is lawn bowls “Have A Go” month where bowling clubs throughout Auckland open their doors for you to try the sport for free.
Lawn bowls is one of the few sports that can be played for a lifetime irrespective of age, gender, culture or physical ability and is a great way to meet with new people.
Our friendly clubs welcome new players and people that just want to "have a go" can try the sport through a wide range of social bowling programmes during summer. To find out more visit your local club or the Play Bowls website
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)
.
