PN Brass Band - Musicians Wanted!
I am a member of Palmerston North Brass Band and we're looking for anyone who plays, or used to play, a brass instrument! We're a little light on players at the moment, so if you're interested in playing with us, we'd love to hear from you!
You can message me directly through Neighbourly, or find Palmerston North Brass on Facebook and contact us that way.
Also, if you've never played but would like to learn, or are thinking about getting your children started on their musical education, we can facilitate lessons as well through our Brass Band Academy programme.
If you'd like to check us out, we'll be performing at Explore Esplanade Day this Sunday, 18th April, around 11am on the Victoria Stage. We'll also have a stall nearby.
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.

84.4% Yes
