Top of the South Film Festival Next Weekend
We’re just one week out from the Top of the South Film Festival, next Friday and Saturday, at the Suter Theatre. It's the 4th annual celebration of the best locally produced short films from Tasman, Nelson and Marlborough. From documentaries to short narratives, there are fascinating stories being told by local filmmakers. Just a few tickets are left for the Gold Reel screening on Saturday at 7 PM. Order them now if you want to be part of the Award Presentation that evening, with Nelson Mayor Rachel Reese handing out the trophies. Or why not enjoy all 19 of the submitted films and take in the Silver Reel screening from 5-6 PM on Saturday, then enjoy the Red Carpet before the 7 PM Gold Reel screening? And don’t forget the Friday screenings of Dragoon Anthology and Gold Reel again.

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)
.
