Burwood Community ANZAC Day service 25 April 2017

Kim Hillson from Waitākiri Primary School

ANZAC Day commemorations have been held at the Burwood Monument on the corner of Lake Terrace & New Brighton Roads for many years. However after the red zoning of the land around this area, the commemorations stopped.

Together with All Saints Church, New Brighton Road, we are very pleased to say that this year on ANZAC Day, 25 April at 11am a service will once again be held at the Burwood Monument on the corner of Lake Terrace & New Brighton Roads.

We would like to invite you, and any of your colleagues, families or community members to attend this service. Please spread the word and feel free to forward this email and/or flyer on to anyone who you think this service will be of interest. All are welcome!

We have invited representatives from the RSA, local churches, schools, Scouts, Cubs, Guides, Pippins, preschools, community boards, etc to attend. We encourage as many families from our community to attend and would like to see this once again being an annual event.

Please see the attached flyer for details.

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.
