Pipe Band Musical Mayhem? A Musical afternoon Soiree?

Kerry Marshall from Napier Pipe Band Inc

Piping & Drumming – Revived

After several months of lockdown and constraint the Napier Pipe Band is presenting its first public performance at St Paul’s Church on Sunday 2 August. Over the past few months on-line practices were used to prepare new music and refresh tunes already in the repertoire but nothing is better than our pipers and drummers together, playing their music. This performance ‘Piping & Drumming – Revived’ will showcase some of the new music plus many of the old favourites. Musical Mayhem? A Musical afternoon Soiree? Who knows what will transpire as band members gather in St Paul’s church to entertain our supporters. The event starts at 2pm with entry by gold coin donation. Light refreshments will be provided.

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)
.
