Book Fair 5 Nov - Lyttelton
Hi everyone. Lyttelton Primary School's Family Hub is holding a fabulous Book Fair at the new Lyttelton Arts Factory (adjacent to the market) on Sat, 5 Nov. Please help us out by dropping any unwanted books that are cluttering up your shelves to the school office by Nov 3. Fiction and non-fiction for kids and adults gratefully accepted - have a spring clean for a great cause, then head along to the sale and find some new and exciting reads! We've recently moved into our new school buildings and are raising funds to acquire books for the school library. See you there!
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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
