School Holiday Film Making Workshops
Have you got kids who are keen on film making but are not sure actually how to do it? Baycourt Theatre in conjunction with Bay of Plenty Regional Film and the International Youth Silent Film Festival (NZ) are putting on a four day workshop to teach kids ( aged 20 and under ) the fundamentals of writing, prepping, shooting and editing a three minute silent film. Kids can attend all four days or pick and choose but attending for all four means they will have a finished film of their own at the end of it, which can be entered into the IYSFF (NZ) competition if they want! So Exciting!! Places limited so book at www.ticketek.co.nz... or at Baycourt box office. Contact iysff@tauranga.govt.nz for more info.
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
