🐦 The Tui Are Back! 🐦

There’s a buzz (or should we say flit and flutter?) around Te Awa Lifecare this week — the Tui have returned in abundance! 🌿

They’ve been busy darting from one harakeke plant to another, filling the air with their songs, squabbles, and those unmistakable flashes of iridescent feathers. It’s pure joy to watch — a real fight, flight, and sing spectacle! 🎶

We love seeing them back around the village, but it does make us wonder… where do our feathery friends disappear to when they’re not here? 🕊️

🍅 The Great Te Awa Lifecare “Big Red” Tomato Challenge! 🍅

Things are heating up in the hot house! Each of our care wards has potted their very own tomato plants, and the competition is well and truly on to grow the juiciest, tastiest ‘Big Red’ of them all. 🌱

The residents have their watering schedules sorted, and the plants are soaking up the love (and a fair bit of friendly rivalry too!). Come January, the ultimate taste test will decide which ward takes home the title of Best Tomato in Te Awa.

Judging will be strictly by flavour… though a little “tomato bribery” might not be completely off the table! 😉

Stay tuned for updates as our tomato contenders grow and glow! 🍅✨

🌿✨ What a Difference a Couple of Weeks Make! ✨🌿

Just a short while ago, our trees were standing bare and winter-weary — but now, look at them! The village has burst back into life with fresh, lush green leaves and vibrant colour everywhere you turn. 💚

It’s amazing how quickly Te Awa transforms this time of year — from quiet, crisp mornings to bright days filled with new growth and fresh energy. The gardens are buzzing, the trees are smiling, and the whole village feels alive again. 🌸🌳

Here’s to the beauty of spring and the joy it brings to our community! 🌼

🍃💨 When Spring Has a Mind of Its Own! 💨🍃

It’s been a bit blustery over the last couple of days, and those beautiful new leaves have decided to take flight — straight across the village and onto the parking bays outside The Woolshed! Our gardening team has been kept on their toes (and their vacuums!) trying to keep up with the leafy confetti.

Add in the warm, damp weather and the lawns are growing faster than we can say “Where did that grass come from?” 🌱 The trimmings are joining the party on the parking lot too!

A big shoutout to our hardworking grounds crew for keeping Te Awa looking its best — wind, rain, or runaway leaves! 💚

🌸 A splash of colour on a grey day 🌧️

Even on these dark, blustery, and squirrelly rainy days, the beautiful flower arrangements dotted around the village never fail to brighten things up. Their bursts of colour bring warmth and cheer — a little reminder that beauty and care are all around us, even when the weather’s dreary. 💐

Here’s to those thoughtful touches that make us smile — rain or shine! 🌦️😊

🥚 Local Egg-cellent Entrepreneurs! 🐣

Riley and Lockie — Connagh’s clever kids — have been busy running their very own little business right here in our community! These two have been collecting, packaging, and selling fresh, home-laid eggs straight from their backyard hens.

With Christmas just around the corner, we’re sure they’ve got something exciting planned for their growing stash of cash 💰🎄

We love seeing the next generation of entrepreneurs in action — well done, Riley and Lockie! 👏

🐶 Paws, Cuddles & Smiles All Around! 💕

This week we had two very special visitors — Charlie and Josh, adorable pet therapy dogs! These two fluffy superstars rolled up in style (yes, in their very own buggy! 🛺🐾) to spend time with our care residents.

There were cuddles, giggles, wagging tails, and plenty of happy hearts — it’s amazing how much joy a few furry faces can bring. 💛

A big thank you to Charlie and Josh (and their human!) for brightening everyone’s day — we can’t wait for your next visit! 🐾✨

At Te Awa Lifecare, you’ll never be far from a comfy chair!

Around every corner, there’s a little spot just waiting for someone to stop by for a natter, a quiet read, or a quick rest before carrying on.

Whether it’s five minutes or fifty, there’s always time to take a seat and soak in the moment. 💬📚☕

🏓 A Smash Hit at The Woolshed! 😄

Last week, our care residents enjoyed some friendly games of table tennis with our wonderful staff — including our very own Care Manager, Shirley! 🎉

There was plenty of laughter, a few impressive rallies, and (we’re pretty sure!) not too much chasing after the ball... 😉

Moments like these remind us that a little fun and friendly competition goes a long way in keeping spirits high. 💛

🎉 Snip, Sip, and Celebrate! ✂️🥂

What a special moment last Friday for our Te Awa residents as Gayle MacMillan and Barbara Edgecome officially cut the ribbon on the brand-new entrance to Te Awa Lifecare!

The rain kindly held off, the ribbon was cut with flair, and (we can neither confirm nor deny 😉) that a bottle or two of bubbles may have popped in celebration!
It’s been a long journey — and we’re all thrilled to see some of those famous orange cones finally disappear! 🚧✨

You’ll now find our new entrance by turning left at the roundabout off Hamilton Road, onto Te Aka Matua Rise, and then left again into Arikirua Lane.

A big thank you to everyone who made this milestone possible — here’s to smooth entries, sunshine, and fewer detours ahead! 🌤️💛
