🌻 A blooming beautiful day out 🌻Residents from Summerset in the River City recently enjoyed a stunning visit to the Sunflower Field at Hiwinui Country Estate Boutique Lodge. With over 200,000 sunflowers in full bloom and gorgeous weather to match, the day was filled with breathtaking views and smiles all around. Residents loved wandering through the sea of golden flowers and even taking a turn on the swing. It was a truly lovely outing, and everyone is already looking forward to returning again next year 💛

🫶Summerset on Cavendish residents and staff raised an incredible $16,743.42 for the Christchurch City Mission. Casebrook resident, Neil, proudly handed over the cheque to City Missioner, Corinne Haines. Neil praised residents and staff for their contributions. “It's an amazing result, it goes a long way to making a big difference for people in our community and for those who need support.” ❤️

“It just goes to show what can be done when we all pull together and help a little bit,” head resident Neil said as he handed $16,743.42 to City Missioner Corinne Haines.

It was wonderful to join Summerset on Cavendish residents at their weekly meeting and be told they had raised this amount for us in 2025. Neil praised residents and staff for their contributions. “It's an amazing result, it goes a long way to making a big difference for people in our community and for those who need support.”

Corinne thanked the residents for their generosity and said we helped 12,000 people in 2025 so we needed all the help we could get. “I’m blown away by the amount you have raised,” she told them. ❤️

🌿 Summerset in the Orchard residents recently enjoyed not one, but two fantastic Walking Group adventures to the stunning White Pine Bush, just north of Napier. This short, accessible track offered something for everyone - from peaceful bush surrounds to a breathtaking Nikau Palm forest and Kahikatea trees estimated to be over 800 years old. It was the perfect outing for fitness, fresh air, and good company. A soul nourishing day out, enjoyed by all! 🚐🌲💚

🌈 While the grandkids are off school, Summerset at Pohutukawa Place’s Activities Coordinator, Vanessa, organised a colourful “Rainbow Walk” for residents and their visiting families. The activity encouraged residents, grandchildren, friends, and even groups like the Knit ’n’ Natter crew to explore the village and capture photos of the six main colours of the rainbow. It was a fun way to enjoy the beauty of the grounds while spending quality time together. One resident shared how special the experience was during a visit from their grandchildren from Masterton: “They love visiting Summerset and enjoyed a swim and getting involved in the Rainbow Competition. It was like a treasure hunt and kept them happily occupied for quite some time!” How gorgeous are these entries? 🤩

👩‍🍳Sweet moments at Summerset Down the Lane 👩‍🍳 Care residents spent the day piping and baking their own mini pavlovas before topping them with fresh cream, colourful fruits, berries, and a drizzle of fruit syrup. The Hamilton residents especially loved taste testing, all while sharing nostalgic stories about baking pavlova with their children or their mums. ❤️ A beautiful blend of creativity, connection, and Kiwi tradition. 🥝🍓
