Demi Au Pair
Kia ora,
ETC is still looking for host families for some of our demi-pair students in 2020!
Our demi-pair students study English part-time, Monday to Friday from 9am – 12pm and outside of that are available to do 15 hours of childcare/house work in exchange for food and accommodation - so perfect for families who may need an extra pair of helping hands.
I have one demi-pair who is available immediately, already in NZ and ready to meet her perfect host family! I have two more arriving in March.
Hosting a demi-pair is a great experience for families and children, so if you, or someone you know may be interested please check out the attached poster for my contact details, or message me here.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Allie
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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

The Hikoi on Tuesday 19th
I copied this from a Facebook page: The expected route of the hīkoi on Tuesday is from Takapuwahia Maree in Esldon towards Porirua and along Kenepuru Drive to Tawa, then up Middleton Road to Johnsonville, down Ngaraunga George and along the old Hutt Road to Wellington. They are anticipating significant congestion on the roads between 06.00am and 12.30pm.
