🎄On Wednesday afternoon we all came together to celebrate the festive season in true Marinoto style!
It was a wonderful time filled with friends and family, laughter, music from the talented Timeless Therapy, a visit from Santa, a truly special cutting of the cake, and delicious food lovingly prepared by our dedicated cooks and team.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the event so special. And an extra big thank you to our amazing staff for all their hard work behind the scenes to bring this celebration to life.

Wishing you all a season filled with warmth, joy, and cherished moments. Thank you for your support throughout the year, we look forward to creating more memories together in 2026 🌟

We've been spoilt with visits from St Patrick's School Inglewood, Inglewood Primary School and Best Start Inglewood recently - the residents absolutely loved the talented performances, beautiful singing and wonderful handmade cards, gifts and flowers.
Thank you to the awesome teachers and students for taking the time to come and make our days special, and we hope you all enjoyed Lyn's famous chocolate fish 😋

🌞What stunning weather we had for the Inglewood Christmas parade this year! Many of our residents and staff took a trip down to watch as the awesome floats went by (you may have even spotted one of our residents IN the parade) - we all had a wonderful time and felt the Christmas joy!
Thank you to Cue Theatre, Inglewood for allowing us to set up out the front and for Marinoto staff who generously volunteered time on their day off to help.

🎄Not long after we got back, the impressive Taranaki Freemasons Parade float turned up here at Marinoto, and the team handed out thoughtful Christmas gifts to each of our residents. What a generous, wonderful and kind gesture. You really made our day - thank you so much!

🍖The next day, with luck on our side, a big thank you goes to Murray Gordon for the winning nominating for Marinoto to WIN a nice big Christmas ham from The Bunns Harcourts Inglewood competition. Maurice and Lyn were very happy to receive the generous prize, and we can't wait to enjoy this during our Christmas celebrations. Thank you so much Casey & Lisa!

We have some very special people working here at Marinoto, who turn up day after day, always doing their best and caring for the amazing residents we have living here.

This week was our official staff appreciation week. Every day something different was planned to acknowledge their hard work and dedication and the way they display the Marinoto values in everything they do.
Staff appreciation week included long service awards, a staff vs. residents bowls tournament (where the residents won...of course!) and Mr Whippy ice creams, cupcake decorating comp and rock painting session, an Inglewood wide scavenger hunt - a huge thank you to Stanleigh Garden, Fun Ho Toy Museum, The Cool Shop, Inglewood Community & Food Hub, Lorraine at The Book Shop and Peter for taking part in our hunt and making it extra special for the team.

Finally, we held an awards evening to honour those nominated by staff and residents, ran raffles, ate good food, and placed the painted rocks around our sensory garden in remembrance of those who have passed this year.

A huge thank you to CEO Roo and Clinical Manager Bee (and everyone who contributed to the organisation of the events), for making this amazing week happen, you've truly made everyone feel seen and valued.

Behind the Care: Meet Myree 🌾

When the family farm was sold, Myree found herself at a crossroads. Nursing and caregiving had always been on her mind, so in 2021 she joined Marinoto as a Healthcare Assistant. Her natural empathy and strong work ethic quickly made her a trusted member of our team, and she soon grew into a Senior HCA.

For Myree, the best part of the job is the people:
“It’s the residents, my colleagues, and the atmosphere that make Marinoto such an enjoyable place to be.”

Myree perfectly reflects all of the MARINOTO values: Meaningful Care, Accountability, Respect, Integrity, Nurturing, Openness, Trust & Outstanding Service.
She is consistent, a trusted team player, who often goes above and beyond for our wonderful residents and staff.

Myree is not just a caregiver, she’s a mentor, bringing warmth, patience, and wisdom to everyone around her and we're very blessed to have her on the team.

What have we been up to lately?.. more like what HAVEN'T we been up to lately! 😀
We've had fun and games, outings, guest speakers, wonderful musical performers, dog therapy visits, a great time out at the Inglewood Lions - NZ lunch and LOTS of ice cream. Lyn and the team have kept everyone entertained and busy.
We're looking forward to putting up the Christmas decorations tomorrow and getting into the festive spirit 🎄🎄

📢SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!

🌟 Celebrating Our Local Heroes – The Valintine Family 🌟

The Kiwibank New Zealander of the Year Awards honour New Zealanders who create positive change in their communities. We’re proud to share that our very own Valintine Family has been named one of the 100 TOWER LOCAL HERO MEDALLISTS for 2026.

For over 50 years, the Valintine family has been at the heart of Marinoto Home & Hospital Care and the Inglewood Welfare Society. Their legacy began in 1970 when Returned Serviceman W.B. (Bill) Valintine transformed the old Inglewood Maternity Home into a Rest Home. His wife Betty and their children all pitched in, laying the foundations of a true community legacy.

That dedication continues across generations, through Tom and Marian’s decades of governance and support, and Nikki’s practical, hands-on service, from kitchen upgrades to stepping in during COVID times.

We’re thrilled to see their lifelong commitment recognised nationally.

A big thank you Marie Riordan from Volunteering New Zealand for putting the Valintine family forward and for coming to present this wonderful medal on Sunday - it was very much a BIG surprise gathering and nomination for both Marian and Nikki, but a very special surprise it was.

Thank you to everyone who came and took part in the presentation of the medal, including our residents, staff, and the extended Valintine family and friends, and to the Inglewood Welfare Society for organising this lovely morning.

Ngā mihi nui to the Valintine family, true local heroes. 💛

Our Head Cook Jared, Joanne and the team do an amazing job preparing meals for our residents and Meals on Wheels customers.
Our residents always have such great feedback on the great food that arrives from our kitchen to their plates every day.
So, it's lovely to be able to share this review from Denis, another happy Meals on Wheels customer, giving the team the kudos they certainly deserve. Thanks so much Denis.
