FIBRE CRAFTING SUNDAYS

Diane from Stoke

Our grandmothers did it, our great grandmothers did it and some of their menfolk did it. Even now some people are still doing it. What? The art of woolcraft – spinning, knitting, weaving, felting, crocheting.
With the resurgence of interest in this wonderful and satisfying artform, the Richmond Creative Fibre Group has decided to offer a chance to learn fibre craft to anyone interested who doesn't get the chance to do so on a weekly bases.
The last Sunday for the next 3 months at Birch Hall at the A&P Grounds in Richmond, from 1.30 to 3.30pm, the Richmond Group are having meetings to help cater for any teenagers and older wanting to learn or get help on any of the wool crafts. Experienced people will be there who will be able to give a guiding hand. The Group is asking for a gold coin donation for the afternoon. Tea and coffee will be provided.

So the Sunday dates are 25 March, 29 April, and 27 May 2018. 1.30 to 3.30pm

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.
