Activities

We believe that the opportunity to be active will benefit both the mind and body. Conversely there is always time for rest and relaxation.

Something every day

We have a full programme of activities. There is something to do every day of the year. For instance; housie, short walks, exercise class, music, quiz and helping about the house.

Out and about

Every week we provide the opportunity to get out and about free of charge to visit local attractions such as the Gardens, Sumner, Ferrymead or Willowbank. We also organise trips further afield for those more adventurous and able such as Hanmer Springs, Akaroa or Greymouth.

We celebrate birthdays, anniversaries and seasonal events. Free internet access is available.

We cater to a wide range of dietary needs and are happy to tailor meals to suit your requirements. All meals are prepared daily on site using a wide range of quality fresh meat and produce. Home style baking is also a feature on our afternoon tea menu.

A huge thank you to you and your very caring staff.
