Poll: Have you ever been bullied?
People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.
This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.
Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.

The new central library
So much for the alleged accessibly of the new library. I am a mobility scooter user, the lifts are too small for scooters. I and others with disabilities are limited to the ground floor. Where we struggle to get in and out. Why are there accessible toilets, but not lifts or easy to use doors? Surely we have reached an era where accessible for all should actually be for all and not just the able bodied.
