Full house for Remuera Gardens Village Party

Last Friday's Village party at Remuera Gardens was a roaring success. Beattie Lodge was again at full capacity with more than 40 residents participating in the event. They all enjoyed the performance of the Madeleines Trio, a vintage three part harmony trio based in Auckland. The trio is made up of Shannon Evison, Hannah Kee and Jess Rogers, three singers who have worked internationally in musical theatre. On Friday they sang jazz and swing hits from the 20s to the 60s. For the residents it was a great occasion to gather with their friends, enjoy delicious food and drinks, and get their feet tapping to sophisticated tunes.

Happy Easter

Easter is one of the most meaningful celebrations in New Zealand—a time for family, reflection, and joy. At our Real Living villages, we embrace the spirit of the season by creating happy moments for all, with fun cornhole competitions, themed crafts, and beautifully homemade treats. Of course, no Easter would be complete without a visit from our resident Easter Bunny, who makes sure there’s a little chocolate for everyone.

Movement and Mindfulness

At Real Living, we are always exploring new ways to improve the well-being of our residents and staff. One of our latest initiatives, the Holistic Dance Exercise Programme (HDEP), is an innovative, evidence-based project developed by our Group Culture, Care, and Quality Manager, Reign Marcial. Rooted in academic research and inspired by established practices from the Alzheimer’s Society in the UK, this programme integrates movement, meditation, and structured exercise to support cognitive function, balance, and fall prevention among older adults.
