This means that while uniforms can include both skirts and pants, schools can't label these as "girls" or "boys" items.
Should NZ follow suit?

Homeowner Brittany Nawani, said "the blanket was on for a matter of minutes before catching fire and spreading quite fast."
She will no longer be using electric blankets and hoped others learned from their tragedy.
Advice to electric blanket owners is to replace them every five years, but if damage such as cracked wires or failing controller is showing, the blanket should be replaced immediately.

Here's a run-down on everything you need to know about this year's elections in Northland, including why you should care.
The schools involved were Kelston Girls College, Northcote College and Waitakere College, and the activities they took part in included; tramping, water activities and a solo camping night.
Congrats to all those involved. We hope you all had an amazing time!
For Ryman Healthcare residents, knowing they’re part of a community they can trust and that genuinely cares, provides real peace of mind.

Keri Milne-Ihimaera was the principal of Moerewa School for 10 years, where the community was deeply involved in the school - until a statutory intervention by the Ministry of Education, she said.
She said change needed to come from the ground up and be supported by those at the top – not the other way round. Do you agree?
