Papanui High School Paverpol Nightclass

Bryan and Barbara Roper from Papanui High School Adult and Community Education

Papanui High School is offering a new course for Term 1 which will appeal to those who are interested in taking up a new craft or hobby. Paverpol is an environment friendly fluid used to make fabric rock hard. Its original colour is white, but it will dry as transparent in a few hours. Paverpol artwork is weather resistant after hardening completely. It will withstand rain, wind, sun, snow and frost. Hands and tools can simply be washed in warm water. Just dip natural materials such as textiles in Paverpol. Drape or wrap the material around a wire figure or other armature and leave it to dry.
Paverpol dries fast, but slowly enough to allow plenty of working time. After it has hardened, you have created a beautiful decoration or sculpture which can be used indoors as well as outdoors, It sticks very well with paper, silk, chamois leather, self-hardening clay, polystyrene foam, dried flowers, wood, plaster, pottery etc except plastic.

For further information and enrolment please visit our website www.papanui.school.nz..., or email Barbara Roper rpb@papanui.school.nz or telephone our office on 35202701.

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.
