Tennis star

Inge Doig from Samuel Marsden Collegiate School

No rest for Jade Otway during the school holidays. She has been pushing herself on the courts at the J4 ITF Tennis Tournament in Wellington. She was top seed and fought hard all week to reach the final against Elise Tse from Auckland. They played a 3 set match, which went for 2 hrs 45 mins. Jade won the 1st set, Elyse took the 2nd, so that set them up for the decider which Jade won. Final score 6-4, 5-7, 6-4. Congratulations Jade, and we believe you are now ranked in the top 200 junior women players in the world!

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
