Marsden, NZ's first Visible Wellbeing School
Marsden is NZ's first Visible Wellbeing School, we are so very excited to have started on this journey! Staff and senior students have been trained by Professor Lea Waters #visiblewellbeing to recognise wellbeing in themselves and others, and we are starting to implement a framework that enhances wellbeing for students in every class and activity we do. This has positive flow on effects to learning and gives staff and students a toolkit to manage their own wellbeing at and beyond school. Contact us or come for a tour if you'd like to find out more!
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)
