Want to make a worm farm ?
We have someone at the Community Gardens in The Brook who can help you make a worm farm. Bring your own buckets and he will supply worms, holes in the bucket and show you how to put it all together. Get bucket from Mitre 10, Bunnings, Recycle Centre, etc. You'll need 3 of them. And a little koha would be appreciated if possible. We will have 2 dates and times when you can do this - check out our FB page for that in a few days. Any questions contact me on 0211 709 443.

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)
.
