Roof repairs for pool

Sharron Pardoe Reporter from Upper Hutt Leader

Upper Hutt’s popular H2O Xtream will be partially closed for four weeks from October 10.
The pool is undergoing maintenance, resulting in reduced opening hours and features.
Part of the multi-level roof lifted off in a storm last November and needs repairing.
All three hydroslides will be closed from Monday October 10 to Saturday October 22.
Hydrorobics classes will run on a limited time-table on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday. There will be no Toddler Time sessions during the four week period.
The spa pool will be out of action for three days from Monday October 10.

The facility will be open to the public as follows:
* Monday to Thursday 5.30am to 7.30 am and 3pm 9pm.
* Friday: 5.30am to 7.30 am and 3pm – 10pm.
* Saturday 8am to 7pm
*Sunday 8am to 6.30 pm and 7am – 9pm (women only).

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.
