Art Works
Wanted: Old artworks, oils and watercolours painted by William Jason Hill, my grandfather, during the period 1890-1920 or thereabouts. He lived and worked as a printer/compositor up and down the Wairarapa and was known as a prolific and talented artist.
I have never seen any of his paintings and look forward to seeing an example of his work whether available to purchase or just to view.
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.
