Tawa Intermediate School is taking the Diamonds Netball Team to Tauranga in September to participate in the AIMS Games.

In support of Tawa Intermediate Diamonds Netball Team, Gift Shack will be donating 15% of all in-store sales on Thursday 16th August.

There will be extended hours on the day - 9am til 8pm.

Where: GIFT SHACK, Decor & Giftware - 4/210 Main Road, Tawa (Just off the Main Road)

Make a purchase on the day (big or small - it all helps) for your chance to win some extra goodies.

We hear this group of girls have a strong chance of winning this competition round. Good luck and we hope by hosting this event that we will help take a little of the financial strain off the team.

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.

The Hikoi on Tuesday 19th

Jeanette from Tawa

I copied this from a Facebook page: The expected route of the hīkoi on Tuesday is from Takapuwahia Maree in Esldon towards Porirua and along Kenepuru Drive to Tawa, then up Middleton Road to Johnsonville, down Ngaraunga George and along the old Hutt Road to Wellington. They are anticipating significant congestion on the roads between 06.00am and 12.30pm.
