Outcome of Gardening Group Meeting

Bev Adams from Woolston Development Project

An initial meeting was held at Woolston Development Project on Wednesday, 20 November. There were a number of ideas to consider for the future of the group which included whether another community garden was needed, the possibility of guest speakers on specialist gardening topics, swapping surplus seeds and plants between members, visiting gardens within the wider community, tutorials on how to create gardens when you have no room for a garden etc.
It was decided to gather more information for the next meeting early next year especially around the need for another community garden or supporting the existing ones. It was a suggestion to invite Michael Reynolds from Roimata Garden Common and Jenny from Opawa Community Garden . Notice of the next meeting will be provided after the Christmas break.

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.
