Hawke's Bay Jazz Club hosting schools' Jazz Bands

Rhonda Neighbourly Lead from Hastings Central

Thank you so much to Susan Donaldson and Ian (sorry don't have your last name) and all of the Hawke's Bay Jazz Club members for hosting a brilliant evening of dinner and music at the Sailing Club this evening. It was wonderful to see and hear the Jazz bands and singing jazz solos and groups including a Barber Shop Quartet - they were absolutely brilliant.

I would like to publically honour and thank Anton Wuts and David Self and all of the teachers who made this evening possible. A special thanks to the students and staff of Sacred Heart for turning up tonight - you have gone the extra mile in a week of sadness. Well done Young Lass who sung so beautifully. :-)

Congratulations to all of the players and singers who performed this evening. And a huge thanks also to the bar staff and the most terrific cooks in the kitchen and wait staff - as always the food was magnificent. Thank you.

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.
