Events at Pinesong that we would like to remember
The first day of the rest of our lives
Pinesong's 20th Birthday Celebration 2019
Friday 9th August 2019 - Pinesong’s 20th Birthday
Our Seabreeze Lounge was packed on Friday evening for our birthday celebration and an opportunity to celebrate Neil’s time at Pinesong. Angela, our new Village Manager came along and it was a great opportunity for us to meet her.
Welcome bubbles were served from 4.30pm and speeches followed at 5pm followed by entertainment. The well kept surprise was to have Neil perform for the last time as a member of our staff - we will surely miss him.
Pinesongsters' Wellington RVA festival 2013
Bay Audiology Retirement Village Festival of Choirs 2013
What a great occasion this was for our village. The support in fund raising and in so many other ways was exceptional. Everything went extremely well thanks to the organisation of Doug Lilly and John White. Everybody who went thoroughly enjoyed this event and it was especially satisfying to come back with the award for 'Outstanding Presentation.
Below are some photographs of our time away. Thanks again to everyone for your support.

An audience with
Shaun Wallace
"WOW what a buzz Shaun Wallace has created around the village! I was confident we made the right decision when we said ‘yes’ to the opportunity to host Shaun, but I certainly didn’t anticipate the positive impact his visit would have on our village community.
Shaun Wallace Book Orders: Should you wish to order one of his books through us, please register your full name via Reception and payment of $40.00 no later than Wednesday 27th February 2019. We will then place this order for you. Please note these will not be autographed. "
