Reminder: Northern Upper Hutt Earthquake Drill - 14 March
Kia ora whanau - A reminder that WREMO is having an earthquake drill at Plateau School to practise how we as a community would respond and use the Community Hub at Plateau School. Be great to have a wide range to people there to learn and help.... and have some fun too.
Check out the facebook event: www.facebook.com...
Also looking for some folk interested in filling in the blanks of our Te Marua Community response plan (what would be available to us in our local area in the event of an emergency eg- communications, water, venues, facilities, bbqs, 4X4 vehicles etc) Please get in touch with me in the comments below (Tania Jones) and I'll arrange a group coffee meeting, won't be arduous... and only a one-off :-)

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)
.
