Although many people were for the idea, some parents felt "blindsided" that they weren't forewarned that Hana Kōkō would be stepping in for Santa Claus. The parade's organisers have since apologised.
So we want to know your view on this topic. Are you in support of modernising Christmas, or do you prefer a traditional Santa? Take part in our poll below!

Keep your eyes peeled for the latest scam to be fooling Kiwis. Scammers are taking advantage of people looking for a home to call their own, creating fake competitions and giveaways to win a tiny home.
A recent scam asked people to sign up on their page which went through a process of multiple surveys so the scammers can collect more information about the Facebook user in the hope of collecting personal details, including bank accounts. To read all about the scam, click here.
A fraud education manager says:
- People are helping the scammers by liking and sharing the post as it spreads the virus
- As soon as you like the Facebook post it gives scammers access to information
- If unsure whether it's a scam or not, look for terms and conditions - often these scams do not have them
- If you think you've been made a victim of an online scam, contact Netsafe and report it immediately. You can access Netsafe's page here.

My interest in this type of therapy was peaked when my husband responded to laser treatment for his different ailments.
The treatment has no side effects, does not involve any type of drugs and is non -invasive. I find the results my patients obtain following treatment very rewarding particularly being able to heal and help people that have been suffering for many months and years.
Laser Therapy was developed to treat all forms of sports injuries and musculoskeletal conditions, to release and control pain and provide improved wound healing. It is a researched and tested science that provides a non-invasive and drug-free treatment and offers a safe therapeutic medical modality that is free from side effects. When it is applied to a painful joint, it helps heal the injured tissues, reduces the inflammatory response, and gives long lasting pain relief.

Some of these thunderstorms are expected to bring heavy rain with intensities of 10 to 25mm per hour and hail 10 to 20mm in diameter. Additionally there is a moderate risk that some slow moving thunderstorms could become SEVERE producing downpours with intensities of 25 to 40mm per hour. Rainfall of this intensity can cause surface and/or flash flooding, especially about low-lying areas such as streams, rivers or narrow valleys, and may also lead to slips. Driving conditions will also be hazardous with surface flooding and poor visibility in heavy rain.
Should severe weather approach or if you feel threatened, take shelter immediately.
