Moths and Butterflies Trust:
Are you going to Bromley Community Centre this Saturday, 18th February from 1pm? It's shaping up to be a fantastic day.
There will be opportunities to learn about butterflies, listen to talks, get plant advice, have your face painted, buy plants and seeds, see monarchs in all stages and generally have fun. Be sure to be there for the butterfly release!

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.
