Enhancing our village environments
A key aspect of our commitment to excellence in resident services is ensuring that our physical environments match our high standards of care and ...
In 2025, we were deeply blessed to receive the most meaningful and valued gift – a specially commissioned stained-glass window to be installed in the Chapel of Christ the King, which was donated by the village’s Treasure Chest opportunity shop.
Designed by Auckland-based stained-glass artist, Suzanne Hanly of Glassworks Ltd, Auckland – whose fabulous works can be seen in Holy Trinity Cathedral, Parnell – this most beautiful artwork was made possible through the vision of independent living resident and Treasure Chest Manager, Beverley White, the hard work of the Treasure Chest volunteers and the generous patronage and donations of the wider Selwyn Village community.
Depicted in both Te Reo Māori and English and in brilliant hues of blue and green, the design reflects the local landscape and Selwyn’s place in the Three Tikanga Church, and it also speaks to The Selwyn Foundation’s Vision: Oranga Mātua, Oranga Tangata – Respectful Ageing for all, within thriving communities.
Following the careful installation, a Service of Dedication celebrated this wonderful legacy which will bring joy to our residents and Chapel worshippers for many generations to come.
