St Albans School Market Day is nearly here!

Angela Harden from St Albans School PTA

Just 10 more sleeps until you can buy, sell, eat, play at the St Albans School Market day. A fun day for all the community (rain or shine)... come along and grab a bargain at this fun event that aims to bring together the school and community, and to raise funds for a new playground.

Free admission and family friendly. There'll be a bouncy castle, pony rides, the AMI firetruck, candy floss, sausage sizzle, great coffee, and of course stalls galore for a some bargain hunting.

Location: St Albans School on Sheppard Place; also accessed through the English Park carpark on Cranford Street or via the gate on Westminster Street.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.
