Putting the Fun in Fundraising
Hi neighbours (near and far). This is an opportunity to have a great night out with the family, and all for a good cause.
In 2012, I was lucky enough to travel to Antarctica with 50-odd others. I had the pleasure of the company of award-winning comedian Te Radar on that trip, and saw his fascination and engagement with the place grow along the way. After we had returned, I was delighted to learn he had put together a show about the unique and downright odd history of Antartica. He performed this in Christchurch at the IceFest (where it was very well received), and subsequently in Auckland (ditto). Given he had not previously performed it in Wellington, Cardinal McKeefry School (which my children attend) thought it would a magnificent opportunity to get him to put it on as a joint venture with the school. Finally, it's about to happen... Te Radar is a supreme performer, and family friendly (although he notes that references to self-surgery may be a little strong for very young stomachs). This a great opportunity to have a fun, educational night out with the family.
See the attached poster for details. Grab a ticket, and see you there! And if, for any reason, you can't make it, please promote it as widely as you can.
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)
.

How to block interference from an irrelevant poster?
Can anyone give advice on how to do this? I have already reported the interference to the neighbourly team.
