STRONG Nation Launch Week
Are you tired of feeling unmotivated and struggling to exercise while losing enthusiasm on your own? I have the answer for you! Strong Nation is a fantastic group fitness class that combines body weight, plyometrics, some martial arts and cardio for an incredible workout. Think boot camp crossed with HIIT class, but for beginners! I am starting up classes in the mornings so you can drop your kids to school and come and join me for a 45 minute class at 9.15am. This is designed for those who are keen to start their fitness journey and try something new. Over a number of weeks we will be slowly building up our fitness to push our limits and not only tone and strengthen our bodies, but gain confidence too. First week of classes is free if you sign up by texting me on 0276421333.
About Me: I am a Mum to 4 and I know how busy life can be. But making time to exercise is so important, especially the older you get! There is a creche with lots of toys for toddlers to play in if you want to bring them along and there are plenty of back rooms to put babies down to sleep in their prams. I want to make this easy for you! Come and join me and let me keep you accountable for exercising.
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)

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?
More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.
Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.
