Midday Concert Series Starts Friday 3rd

Tracey from South Taupo

Welcome back everyone!
This year's concerts begin Friday 3 March with SUE BROWN
& THE MARSHALLS and John Curtis on bass guitar.

With her soulful voice Sue Brown has been in the music scene in Taupō for many years. Recently she performed at Taranaki Jazz Club and featured as a guest at Art Deco Events 2022.
Her first performance for the Midday Concert Series was in 2021.
This year she will be supported by The Marshalls (Peter on tenor sax & Chev Fraser on keyboard), a Taupō combo known for their standards, but with Sue's smooth vocals, any catchy tune or haunting melody is possible. John Curtis will assist the trio on bass guitar guaranteeing a great job.
$5 cash entry. Hope to see you there.

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)
.
