A little extra protection for our littlest ones⭐

Free flu vaccinations are now available for all children aged 6 months to under 5 years. With flu still circulating and young children among those most likely to become seriously unwell, vaccination is a simple way to help protect them this season.

The free flu vaccination is available for:
✅ Children aged 6 months to under 5 years
✅ Pregnant women
✅ People aged 65+
✅ Many people with certain medical conditions

Vaccination helps protect your little one from serious illness and also helps reduce the spread of flu through our whānau and community. ❤️

To book, call our reception team on 07 578 7087.

🌸 Hello, spring!

With longer days and more sunshine ahead, spring is a great time to get moving and focus on your wellbeing.

A few simple ways to look after yourself this spring:

🌿 Get moving – make the most of the longer days and get outside for a walk, run, swim or whatever gets you moving. We love a stroll with a friend along the board walk, or up Papamoa hills!

🥗 Eat well – fill your plate with plenty of colourful, nourishing foods to support your energy and overall wellbeing.

💧 Stay hydrated – warmer weather means we need to keep those fluids up, so keep a water bottle handy. Add electrolytes if you need a little something to encourage you.

😴 Prioritise sleep – good sleep is just as important as exercise and nutrition when it comes to feeling your best. Try going to bed at the same time each night.

🧠 Check in with yourself – make time for the things and people that make you feel good, and don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it.

Here's to a healthier, happier spring! 🌼

After months of hard work, dedication, sweat and tears, it was incredibly special to officially bless our completed Seventh Avenue clinic.

Our team came together for a welcoming ceremony led by our Kaumātua, followed by a karakia and a walk through the new building. As we moved through the spaces, we touched the walls and shared our well wishes, hopes and positive energy for everyone who will walk through these doors.

We then finished the morning with some delicious kai and time together as a team. 💚

A beautiful way to mark the beginning of this next chapter.

We're nearly there! 🔨

Our Seventh Ave clinic is looking fantastic, and while the renovations have taken a little longer than we'd hoped, we're excited to be returning from Monday 27 July.

As we transition back into the newly renovated space, we'll continue to let you know whether your appointment is at our Fifth Ave or Seventh Ave clinic when booking your appointment.

🚗 Parking: On-site parking at Seventh Ave is limited and the spaces are quite compact. If you're driving a larger vehicle, we recommend parking on the street where possible. If this is an issue, please be sure to book at 5th Avenue instead.

A huge thank you for your patience and understanding throughout the renovation. We can't wait to welcome you back and share our refreshed clinic with you!
