Five stained glass panels surround the front door, 2 are original and 3 were created and made in Norsewood following the Danish sunburst design that features on the exterior eves.
The foyer leads to the gorgeous ‘afternoon conservatory,’ perfect for keeping warm whilst relaxing on a brisk afternoon.
The impressive foyer is often utilised for cocktail functions and wet-weather wedding ceremonies.

Caccia Birch House was designed by Danish architect Ludolf Georg West and still stands on its original site.
The original home cost a little under 900 pounds to build.
It was one of the first large houses erected in the city and was built for Jacob Nannestad and his family.
Nannestad was a Norwegian immigrant and a partner in the Richter, Nannestad and Jensen sawmilling firm, which was engaged in clearing bush in the wider Hokowhitu area at the time.

And the risk to their health and wellbeing will increase.
Enliven’s Wellbeing Assistance team are making sure the older people in your community have everything they need to be well.
We are finding that they need the most practical items:
- Food
- Personal hygiene products, including continence products
- Heaters and warm clothing as winter sets in
- Personal safety alarms (in case of a fall, they can instantly request help)
- Regular phone calls for companionship and safety
You can ensure that food and essential supplies are delivered to older people in your community.

The other day I went to get some groceries, first time since the lockdown.
I queued up ..there were only a few of us and I thought to myself, thats good...there was a gazebo outside New World Pioneer Hyway , another plus point... How nice of the shop ...then the woman at the entrance said we could ALL go in ...
To my surprise, there was quite a crowd of shoppers inside already. It was difficult to keep the 2 m distance ..... I was in and out in 30 minutes. If there was a sick person inside, we would all be infected ...
I wish the shop would not let so many people in at the same time ..I would feel safer ...
Or was I being paranoid? what do you think?

If you belong to a practice which offers a portal, you can expect an email from THINK Hauora inviting you to register online.
Almost one million New Zealanders already use a patient portal to connect with their General Practice team without coming into the practice. Here are a few services which may be offered through your General Practice portal:
● Request repeat prescriptions
● View laboratory results such as blood tests
● See your current diagnosis, medications and medical conditions
● Send and receive secure messages between you and your General Practice.
If you are offered Patient Portal services – say YES!
Check out our THINK Hauora is helping communities stay connected with their General Practice teams here
