Can you help get Nina to London?

Rosalie from Hillsborough

Kia ora friends and neighbours. A few of you might know about our daughter’s determination to follow a career as a performing musician.
Nina has been offered a place to study for her Masters Degree in Performance Trumpet at the Royal Academy of Music in London starting in September this year and is currently fundraising to help try and meet the tuition and accommodation costs. Music was a key part of of her education at Cashmere High, the staff inspired her to think big so she has taken that idea and run with it! Any donations gratefully received via Nina’s fundraising campaign on the arts foundation boosted website. If you can help spread the word on your social media that would also be fantastic. Thanks heaps for your support. www.boosted.org.nz...

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.
