Join the weaving workshop for adults and their children

Riverside Milk

Weaving Workshop: This Thursday, 13th July, 2pm to 4pm at Riverside Community Centre in Lower Moutere.

Come with your special young person and learn how to make beautiful Catalan trays out of eco-friendly materials. This simple, hands-on workshop is great for beginners.

You'll both transform willow and hazel into strong trays perfect for bread, cheese, or even as a food serving board. Moreover, it's a great way to build creativity, patience, and teamwork, and see how your child's fine motor skills and concentration develop.

When you're done, you'll have unique and lovely trays to use on your table or display on your walls when not in use. Let's have fun, create, and learn together.

$25 per adult-child pair. Bookings essential: www.riverside.org.nz...

A small grey rabbit seems to be living at our place quite a bit in Coleridge place. We have been unable to catch it but it leaves plenty of evidence around that it's here. 2 children recently enquired about their lost rabbit but have lost their details.

Respite care when you need it

Ernest Rutherford Retirement Village

From rehabilitation after a hospital stay, to a little extra support, whether it’s for a few nights or a few weeks - respite care provides temporary care in a range of circumstances.

If you still live in your own home, a short stay at one of our care centres could be a welcome break from your usual routine.

Our respite care is offered at rest home-level care, hospital and specialist dementia care. In some circumstances, we may be able to offer you respite care in a serviced apartment.

If you've been thinking about moving to a Ryman care centre, spending time with us in respite care is a great way for you to experience the lifestyle in our villages before making your decision.
