THOMAS and FRIENDS at the Rangiora Library
First day at the Rangiora Public Library with Thomas and Friends model railway layout. What a busy day we have had, lots of young children having fun operating a train on our layout. Only 50 cents per drive of one of the friends. Also we have some diorama kits for sale at only $8.00 each for the children to take home and put together, in the kitset is a packet of grass, some sand, 5 trees, 4 building kitsets and a base with some track on it. Great family fun together.
This is another community project put on by the NORTH CANTERBURY MODEL RAILWAY CLUB Inc in association with the Waimakariri Libraries.

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)
