Turtle Tank needed after quakes

Sarah from Christchurch Central

Hi everyone, a friend of mine is after a tank to rehome a turtle, sharing her Facebook post here:

Ok Facebook friends and your network...a call out for a large tank to rehome a Turtle (known as Mr Turtle)..that was at Karen's. He was Shane's and We are going to rehome him back at ours (he is a well travelled reptile)In the interim until life is more settled and certain in Kaikoura. His large tank was completely shattered in the quake.There really isn't much room at Mums for him there to reset him up.We left our aquarium back in Oz when we left Brisbane so need to get a new (second hand one)and the bits and pieces to set it all up again. He is a penny turtle who would now be 15-20 years old (a good size)...thank you in advance....

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.
