Do your LTP submission at the Family Fun Day on Saturday
Grab the family, some sun block and a hat, and come have a chat about what we’ve got planned for Whangārei over the next 10 years.
Our Family Fun Day will have loads of fun activities for the kids including bouncy castles, mini cars, circus activities and more! We’ll have free coffees and sausages on the BBQ, and some awesome prizes up for grabs.
We’ll also be there to chat about our next Long Term Plan, which sets out Council's activities and priorities for the next ten years, and how we will pay for them. You’ll also be able to have your say on big issues, like climate change, our city centre, rates and future events and conference centre options for Whangārei.
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)
