Support the Conservation of Bumblebees

Liz from Pyes Pa

Geoff Brunsden is the co-founder of the NZ Bumblebee Conservation Trust and has applied for a community grant through Cannon NZ. The great news is that the Trust has been chosen as one of three Community Group finalists. To win we need to get as many votes as possible to enable to Trust to send out 10 Bumblebee Hives to schools throughout the country. The children can then study the bumblebees and learn to understand the importance of their roll in pollination of food crops and their place in our ecosystem. The schools will also receive a Cannon camera to take photos of bumblebees that will then be loaded onto the Bumblebee Trust website www.nzbct.org.nz... for everyone to see.

We need your votes!!

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.
