A challenge to all early childhood educators - donate to the SPCA
As part of their mission to get into the community more, Bush Buddies Homebased Childcare and some of its educators and children made a very special trip to the SPCA. They went with gifts for the 'fluffy children'. The Bush Buddies team are going to be donating each month as part of the programme. They would also like to challenge all daycares and homebased companies to beat the contribution.'

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)
.
