Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the Conversations column of your local paper.

Winter sport is in full swing at MainPower Stadium & Maria Andrews Park

The Team from Waimakariri District Council

Just a friendly reminder if you’ve got a game on in or around the stadium this weekend, please DO NOT park along the road berms in the stadium or along Coldstream Road.
Parked cars along the roadside make visibility really hard and pose a safety risk.
We have opened up Mainpower Oval carparking to make sure everyone can park safely but still close by so you won’t miss that all important warm up.
Thanks for your help – good game!
