A special collection for Edgecumbe
Hello Rotorua neighbours - we're thinking of our friends in Edgecumbe as they recover from the effects of recent Cyclone Debbie. We'd like to invite you to be part of a special collection at our branch. The team at ColorShop Rotorua welcomes donations for the residents of Edgecumbe. If you have items you would like to donate - such as cans of food or other non-perishables, we will gladly ensure these make their way to our friends and neighbours in Edgecumbe. Thanks for your support.
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)
.
