Being a leader generally required a 1-2 hour time commitment to attend section nights each week as well as about 1 hour of planning at home. It is extremally rewarding to see the personal development in youth over time. We have groups covering all ages from 5 to 18 years old. If you would be interested in becoming a leader, please get in contact by messaging us or emailing gordon@group.scouts.nz.

Nestled on leafy Windermere Road, you’ll discover a friendly community at The Bellevue. Marie has experienced it first-hand, telling us, β€œthis is the place I’ve been able to make friends.”

Reflecting on when she first moved to the leafy village, Marie says, β€œSarah (Guest Service Manager) got to know me in the first week. I had dinner with her.” Adding with a smile, β€œThe chef here is absolutely marvelous.”

But Marie’s social life isn’t limited to delicious dinner dates; there’s always something happening at The Bellevue. β€œSarah gets to know the residents and what they want to do. Everyone is different and has different needs. She’ll arrange things for what we want to do.”

Our Care Suites not only offer both Rest Home and Hospital care but feel like home too, with a living area, kitchenette and ensuite. And Marie couldn’t be happier. β€œI love my room. I have a little outside patio area. I can boil the jug and make myself a cup of tea and I can entertain friends. I have miles of photos up. I like having lots of photos around me.”

At The Bellevue, Marie has found that feeling many of us are searching for, β€œI wake up every morning and feel good.”

Picking the perfect valentine is a little bit like the perfect finish on any hone improvements. If you chose quality from the start it reaps long term perfection.

We have been doing a little open homing recently and boy you really can tell the people who have saved a little bit here and there or attempted to do it themselves. Elusions products are sometimes a little more expensive than sourcing yourself but it comes with that quality guarantee.

Hopefully your Valentine spoils you today!
Patrick, Shannon and team
