Congratulations Izzy!
Marsden student Izzy Soane had a podium finish at the South Island Ski Championships at Mt Hutt last week, coming 3rd in the U19 Super G race on Friday. Unfortunately she had an impressive crash on the first run of the slalom race, so was out of contention, and the GS race was cancelled due to strong winds. Continuing her busy schedule Izzy races in the Alpine National Junior Championships at Coronet Peak this weekend, and the NZ Alpine Youth Champs at Cardrona at the end of the month and we wish her all the best.
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)
.
