Seasons For Growth Children's Afterschool Programme
Changes in your family? Loss? Separation? The Seasons Programme can help your child through this. During an 8 week programme (1 hour a week), and using peer group support and 2 trained 'companions', we will encourage conversation and teach skills that will help your child through this challenging time. We also use stories and arts and crafts to explore different weekly themes such as Change, Feelings, Supports, Memories and more. Our Programme is for children aged 6-12yrs and starts this Thursday 4-5pm in Pukekohe. Please contact Marisa if you would like to enrol your child/ren, on 0211425812 or email seasonsfranklin@xtra.co.nz.
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)
.
