Tasman District Anzac Day

Dana from Richmond

Tasman District Council Anzac Wreath

This Anzac Day we are celebrating things a different way. As your local Councillor for the Richmond Ward I have put together this slideshow of Anzac scenes in my local area.

The YouTube link to the slideshow is here:

The scenes are all within walking distance of my house. It is so wonderful to see people finding new ways to celebrate and honour our war veterans. My father (now deceased) served in the Korean War and it was an honour lay a wreath today on behalf of all those who have served New Zealand and their families.

In keeping with Covid lockdown rules the wreath was placed by me with only my family bubble in attendance to mark the occasion, but I wanted to share this moment with you.

Stay safe. Stay home. Be Kind.

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.
