Members from 2023 who attend the AGM can see the film for free.

SCRAPPER - DRAMA-COMEDY:
UK, 2023, Rated PG
Director: Charlotte Regan
Cast: Lola Campbell, Harris Dickinson
Following her mother's death, a resourceful 12-year-old girl, Georgie, continues to live alone in their London-outskirts flat. She makes money stealing bikes with her friend, Ali, and keeps the social workers off her back by pretending to live with an uncle. It works until Jason shows up. Apparently, he's her father - so long estranged that she doesn't recognise him. Sizing him up as a rubbish dad (absent, messy, can't cook), Georgie wonders why he's suddenly taking an interest.
SCRAPPER is a vibrant and imaginative story, full of heart-warming charm.

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.
