Free Matariki Stars for Locals
Under the Stars of Matariki ✨
As the stars rise and we enter this season of reflection and renewal, we’re sharing a little stardust of our own.
We’ve created 500 hand-crafted stars, made from reclaimed MDF and engraved with the words “My Wish.” They're gifts from our hands to yours — perfect for painting, sharing, or simply holding close as you set intentions for the year ahead.
This is more than a giveaway. It’s a small act of aroha — a way to reconnect with each other, with the environment, and with the spirit of new beginnings.
We’ve already gifted over 500 Easter and Mother’s Day decorations across the Coast, and would love to share this next one with you.
✨ Collect yours in Silverdale (weekdays)
✨If you can Like and leave a comment on how many stars you would like we can message you directly
🌿 Calling all builders & businesses with leftover MDF, perspex, or timber offcuts? We’d love to hear from you so we can turn your scraps into something beautiful. We transform waste into meaningful, creative products that uplift mental health and community well-being.
Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

🐕🐾 ❗️Parvovirus Infection Alert❗️ 🐾🐕
Over the past few weeks, there has been a noticeable spike in Parvovirus cases in South Auckland, and we are seeing an increase in cases at our clinic as well.
Parvovirus is a highly contagious virus that causes severe gastrointestinal disease, particularly in young and unvaccinated dogs. It can progress rapidly and become life-threatening.
🐾 Common symptoms include:
• Lethargy
• Loss of appetite
• Fever or low body temperature
• Dehydration
• Vomiting
• Diarrhoea that may progress to blood in the stools
Parvo cannot be cured with a specific medication. Treatment involves intensive supportive care, and sadly, even with the best treatment, some puppies may not survive.
💉 Vaccination is the best and most effective protection.
Ensuring your puppy completes their full vaccination course — and that adult dogs are up to date with boosters — is critical.
If your dog is showing any of the above signs, please contact us immediately for advice.
Let’s work together to protect our South Auckland pups ❤️
