Spring Market
It's Spring - or at least next Saturday 1st September is the official first day of spring. The weather is going to be good and Magpie Market is on again from 10am - 2pm. We will have all the old favorite stalls and some great new ones so how about coming along to spend a pleasent hour browsing, chatting to stall holders (pop in and see our Stall of the Month and chat to Caroline), and having a great sausage sizzle or coffee and a treat from Heavens Bakery caravan. We love seeing new faces so bring your friends and neighbours. Meeanee Hall, corner of Meeanee Rd and Gavin Black St. Stall of the month -
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)
.
