This week we honour Bruce — a proud Taranaki local, devoted family man, passionate golfer, and lifelong mentor to so many. From his years of hard work and teaching to the joy he finds in family, music, and the game he loved, Bruce’s story is one of dedication, kindness, and connection. A life truly well played. 🏌️‍♂️

Today we want to take a moment to recognize and appreciate one of our wonderful team members Jan, who looks after maintenance here at Norfolk Lodge.

Jan does an incredible job behind the scenes making sure everything in our home is safe, comfortable, and running as it should. From noticing the little things early and taking care of them before they ever become a problem, to keeping our spaces looking cared for and welcoming, his work makes a real difference to daily life here.

What truly sets Jan apart, though, is the time he takes with our residents. He’s always happy to stop for a chat, share a laugh, or listen to a story, and those moments of connection mean just as much as the practical work he does.

Thank you Jan, for the care, pride, and kindness you bring into Norfolk Lodge every day. We are very grateful to have you as part of our team.

This week we had the pleasure of welcoming our newest resident, Pauline Tattersall, to Norfolk Lodge. Pauline has generously shared her personal story below, her journey, her ties to the Waitara community, and what led her to choose Norfolk Lodge as her new home. We are so grateful to have Pauline join our community.

“I woke up for the last time in the flat I been living in for the last few years, with the death of my husband in July and with a compromised health condition I had to make a decision about my own future. Staying in the flat wasn’t an option.
But where to go?
Coincidentally Norfolk Lodge Rest home came up on my FB page saying that there were rooms available. No brainer. That was obvious choice. I had lived and work in Waitara for 15-16 years and knew more people in the community than in NP.
On arrival in NZ 52 years ago we were welcomed into and lived with a Māori family forming our first positive impressions of this country. It seems inevitable that I would now come towards the end of my life being welcomed in similar way. The sense of whanaungatanga and manaakitanga is front and centre.
Everything is different but oh so familiar staff are welcoming and friendly, always happy to sit and korero or help in anyway. One or two are ex pupils from my time at Manukorihi Intermediate or related to many of the people who supported me in my career.”

A lovely guided buggy tour around Pukekura Park for our residents today. Fresh air, beautiful scenery, and great company made it a really enjoyable and relaxing day out.

✨ Happy New Year from everyone at Norfolk Lodge Rest Home! ✨

As we welcome 2026, we’d like to thank our wonderful residents, families, staff, and the Waitara community for being such an important part of our Norfolk Lodge family.

We continue to provide a warm, caring, and supportive home for our residents — with professional nursing care, meaningful daily activities, and a strong sense of belonging.

We currently have rooms available in:
• Our Dementia Unit (specialist, secure care)
• Our Main Rest Home (rest home level care)
• We also offer short-term or long-term respite care for families needing support

If you or a loved one are considering care this year, we’d love to talk with you and show you around.

Please get in touch to discuss availability or arrange a visit with Sarah on 021 901 347.
We look forward to sharing another year of care with you all!
