Community Pool in Tikipunga
There has been good numbers at the Tikipunga High School pool while it is open to the public.
There are 4 of us rostered as volunteers to assist the Life Guards during the busiest part of the afternoon - 1.30 - 3.30pm; and to cover the time that they are taking water safety instruction on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays between 12.00 - 1.30 pm.
They would welcome more volunteers. If you feel you could help with this, please message or contact as follows -

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)
.
