Ōtaki Repair Café - Come and "use" our skills 🙂
"I'm so happy and thrilled. Steve managed to get the lever fixed and the speed slowed. This gramophone is an heirloom from my grandfather just sitting unused in our living room. Now we can listen and enjoy the old 78's again." One of the many happy stories we hear from the people who come with their broken, blunt and unused items to the Repair Café. They hope that they can be fixed - some of the items have been sitting for years in sheds and garages, or they might have simply become unusable. This is the chance for their second life and your win.
Bring your items that need fixing - Sunday 21 March from 10 to 2pm.
We are at the Memorial Hall, Ōtaki .
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)
.
