Thanks for following the Level 4 lockdown rules!
As we prepare to move to Level 3 lockdown tonight I want to thank the people of Tasman for doing such an amazing job following the Level 4 lockdown rules.
According to google tracker we were the top region for cutting down our non-essential travel early on in lockdown, and I think the results speak for themselves. No new cases of Covid-19 in our region for the last two weeks, no clusters, no deaths.
My heartfelt thanks to the amazing essential workers, parents, grandparents, youth, and kids who followed the rules of Level 4 lockdown.
With Level 3 lockdown, libraries and playgrounds are still closed. I have made a short fun video to share with you about services our libraries are still offering. The link is here...

Finally...if you are a business trying to find new ways to operate under Level 3 lockdown check out the website www.shoplocally.co.nz...
Shoplocally Marketplace is available for all businesses in the Tasman and Nelson region who want a quick and easy way to set up an online store.
This is for local businesses to get ready to trade in time for the change to Alert Level Three. The system has no upfront costs and no monthly fees, just a generous couple from Motueka wanting to help Nelson Tasman businesses to thrive once more.
Kia kaha,

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)
.
