Roimata Community Food Hub
Tena Koutou,
I am currently attempting find some citizens of Woolston that have green fingers to form a core group to support the creation of a new community food resource in Radley Park.
It is to be developed as an orchard and community garden, with the support of CCC and Linwood-Heathcote-Central Community Board. In order to turn this support into nourishing produce a team must be formed and the community must show a desire for such a project.
I have setup a facebook page (www.facebook.com/roimatacommunityfoodhub) and an email address roimatacommunityfood@gmail.com
I have also attached a brochure outlining the project :)
Please make contact if you want to be part of the foundation of this soon to be amazing community asset,
Many thanks,
Michael
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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

85.6% Yes
