Workshop or similar wanted by a community group
The Christchurch Slot Car Club which is a member of a national body, is wanting to rent on a long term basis a workshop or similar measuring about 16m by 8m (give or take).
The club has been in operation for over 20yrs. The building the club has used for the last 20yrs is to be demolished.This means if suitable premises aren't found the club risks being dissolved. Unfortunately, the club is not in a position to afford commerial rents.
The club has provided entertainment for youth groups as well as other community groups - and is open to new members.
The club is willing to do repairs and alterations if neccessary.
Please phone Pete 027 295 1969
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)
