An AED for Tahunanui Beach
Hi Everyone,
My grandson, Jordie (11), as part of a school project at Hampden Street School, has committed to raising enough money to install an Automated Electronic Defibrillator (AED) at Tahunaui Beach in time for Summer.
He decided on this after doing some research and realising that there wasn't adequate coverage for the tens of thousands of visitors the Beach has over Summer. This initiative will inevitably save lives.
Here is Jordie's Givealittle page:

This is a 6 month project and he's in it for the long haul. Every little donation helps so if you can manage a fiver that's awesome. If you can manage more then that's a massive help.
If you need to know anything more then just hit the link above and watch Jordie's video. I hope you'll be inspired as much as I was.
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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
