Trade your old lifejacket in for a new one this summer!
Thanks to Coastguard New Zealand, members of the community have the opportunity to swap their old lifejackets for great discounts on new ones this summer.
The Old4New van will be at the Bowentown Boating Club on Wednesday, 19 December, 3pm-6pm and at the Maketu boat ramp on Monday, 28 January from 1pm-4pm. Coastguard recommends lifejackets older than 10 years should be replaced, so check in with your current lifejackets and make the change if need be!
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)
.
