Reporter The Eye

Fiordland College uniform is dated, expensive and not easily accessible, some parents say.

Yvette O'Shaughnessy, a mother of 12 and 13 year old girls at the school, started a discussion about the current uniform.

O'Shaughnessy brought it up after her daughters said they would like the option to wear shorts or pants, especially being as active as a lot of the boys at school, she said.

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)
.
