Te Horo Country Garden Tour 2019
Only 3 or 4 more sleeps to go - depending on which day you choose!! As well as the 13 glorious gardens we have a variety of plant and garden related stalls at the hall as well as an amazing raffle with 12 prizes donated by local businesses, the first being a $250 hamper from Ruth Pretty! Although we would like you to, you don't have to go on the garden tour to pop into the Te Horo Hall on School Road, browse the stalls, buy a Christmas present or two, a raffle ticket and have a coffee and scone in our cafe. Whatever you choose to do you'll be supporting the earthquake strengthening of the Te Horo Hall. Bring cash as not all stalls will have eftpos and it will be quicker when purchasing your Garden tickets, although I know a lot of you have already bought them, so you can plan your route in advance and get straight into the gardens!!

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)
.
