St Bernard’s College Open Day

St Bernards College

St Bernard’s College will be holding an open day on Saturday 29 May from 10:00 until 2:00. Sports teams will be competing on the college fields during the open day and subject departments will have displays and staff ready to answer any questions. The principal will give a brief address to groups of families at 11:00, 12:00 and 1:00.

The enrolment cycle for 2022 begins on the open day with enrolments closing off on Friday 9 July. Enrolment packs can be collected from the college that day. As the college has reached its maximum roll, it is important that enrolments are received by the close off date.

Over the last year, those travelling along Waterloo Road will have seen the construction of a new Library and Information Technology Centre. While the official opening won’t be until Tuesday 1 June, visitors to the open day can get a sneak preview and walk through the beautiful architecturally designed modern learning space.

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.
