School Holiday Art Classes at Petone's Seaside Art & Gift Gallery
Attending one of these art classes at Petones seaside gallery could be the most rewarding activities youth could do these school holidays. No previous experience required, - under the expert and helpful guidance of Petone artist, Alfred Memelink, youth will learn the basics of watercolour painting in a fun environment above the seaside art gallery. Leave your youth with us and pick them up again 2 hours later when, proud as punch, they will have their masterpiece ready to show you and wearing a beaming smile of creative satisfaction. You can select from either a morning class, 10am – 12 midday or afternoon class from 1 – 3pm. There are also a couple of Saturday morning family art classes where parents, uncles/aunts or grandparents are also welcome to join and for youth prices.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
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)
