Frank Kitts playground work
We're starting work on the initial stages of a playground upgrade on the waterfront this Friday 1 March. Several test holes will be dug around the existing playground to confirm the ground conditions - this will help us to finalise the playground design.
Work will be starting at 7am and is expected to finish by 5pm. Digging will be staged over the day with parts of the playground being closed at different times. Work areas will be securely separated from public spaces, including allowance for safety zones and monitoring work areas at all times.
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)
