Free Parenting course for New Mums

Paul McGregor from Adult Learning Support

Hi neighbours - this post is for all the mums out there.

We're running a free Parenting Course that starts next week so I wanted to spread the word.

If you want to give your baby the best start in life - but you really don't know how to do this parenting thing, this course might be the help you need.

Is it for you? Well, I sure hope so. Let's see...
* Are you a mum with a little terror who's under 5?
* You want to do the best for your little one?
* You're not sure how to be a great parent?
* You're unsure how you'll make ends meet once they go to school?

The course is FREE, and runs for 10 weeks. It's from 10.30 to 2.30pm on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. The first session is on 28 February at the creche next to All Saints Church at 30A Vanguard St.

*Almost* 100 other mums have done this course. We would love you to be that special number 100!

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.

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.
