It provides a welcome break and peace of mind knowing that your loved one will receive round-the-clock care from friendly, experienced care teams.
May Kitchen knows how important it is to provide carers with a break. After visiting her husband Stuart in respite care at a Ryman village, she was tempted to move in herself! “If it was me, I think I would enjoy it because it’s just so beautiful and the food is good.”
Ryman villages provide warm and welcoming communities. Where residents can enjoy activities and outings while forming friendships along the way.

Anyone else tried to get polystyrene from Poly Palace and been told that Porirua City Council, has decided that it is better to dump all the polystyrene in the tip, rather than have it recycled.

Access to MacDonald Cres via The Terrace is still available.
As part of our works to repair the wastewater leak, our team came across a collapsed section of pipe which requires urgent repair. This resulted in immediate road closure, meaning we couldn't advise the public earlier.
As a part of this urgent work, a pumping truck will be on site. We will aim to keep noise down, however we expect the truck to run until 7pm.
We are working with affected residents and businesses to keep them updated on any increased noise.
We will provide an update tomorrow on the status of the road closure.
As part of our works to repair the wastewater leak at the intersection of Willis St and Dixon St, we need to close the western side of Dixon St.
We have found an issue that we need to investigate which requires closure of this section of the road.
We will provide an update later this afternoon.

Heavy trucks are going to be stopped regularly on SH1 to be weighed and tested before going onto the new Transmission Gully Expressway. This will increase the possibility of collision as they are pulled off SH1 and expected to drive onto a small rural road. And then, if the heavy trucks want to go North, they will have to drive under an inadequate underpass along with increased traffic from all residents in Paekakariki. As we have just been informed their only way onto the new expressway will be to come up to MacKays, go through the underpass and around Emerald Glen roundabout, which is also too small and inadequate for all the increased traffic use.
Those of us who might like to walk, ride a bike or a horse in this area will be taking our lives into our hands. NZTA, DOC and NZ Police need to be held accountable for the safety of ALL road users and recreational users.
We have only had one public information meeting about this proposed building.
A small, yet dedicated team of residents from Emerald Glen Road have been corresponding with NZTA and the Minister of Transport since September 2019.
It appears no one is taking into account the multiple safety issues being raised. This includes that the proposed building will be constructed over an active earthquake fault line.
Please share widely as there are potentially 500,000 people in the Wellington Region who will be affected by the construction of this planned building. We also know there are five other safer sites that have been identified and NZTA refuse to acknowledge or even consider using them.

The magician, Nigel Kennedy, was eagerly anticipated and did not fail to entertain with balloon magic and the appearance of Mr. Rabbit. He made Callum into an alien. Abigail treated us to her magic words and became a swan. Sophie with her Xmas glasses became a flower.
You know the expression, 'You just had to be there'?
Ashton's reward, as the Magician knighted him Sir Ashton with the balloon sword, was a delighted giggle.
Sullivan received an outstanding motorbike.
Mya was wonderful with the Santa puzzle and all the Magician's helpers took a bow.
The audience showed their appreciation and lined up for a gentle pat of Mr. Rabbit who'd been enjoying the fun from his position on top of his cage.
Alan introduced Santa and the Christmas Fairy who delighted the children with gifts. The audience was rewarded with a lovely meal with special boxes for the children.
President Euon thanked Allan, Barbara, Harold the Giraffe (visiting courtesy of Life Education Trust), Santa and Santa’s Fairy and wished everyone a very safe and Merry Christmas.
