Me and My Nana: Help us create a play about grandparents!
Cubbin Theatre Compant are working on a new play, capturing the special relationship between children and their grandparents. And they would like your help! A series of workshops is being held for grandparents and children to share stories, have a play and some morning tea. These sessions are FREE and you will be invited to a special preview of a selection from the new play, as thanks for your participation.
Phillipstown Hub is delighted to host a workshop on Saturday 6 July, 10am-11:30am. Please visit our event page on Facebook to learn more and book a spot for you and your little one.
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)
