Fonterra Open Gates, free family day out

Fonterra Open Gates

Some Fonterra farmers are opening up their gates on Sunday 11 November, to show how they care for the environment and what they are doing to help protect it.

It’s also your chance to enjoy a fun family day out on the farm, where you can see where your milk comes from, chat to our farmers and sample our products, including our special edition Tip Top ice cream.

Book your free farm visit to secure your place and don't forget your gumboots! For more information visit Open Gates.

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)
.

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.
