On my travels through Kaiwaka over the years I've driven past this building on the main road plenty of times but I've wondered what the significance of the bird is outside.
Apparently the dove figurehead was created by local Peter Harris in 2014 and in 2017 after the building being empty for some time it was bought by new owners Heidi Clark and her husband Anchal. The couple were inspired to provide a communal space for business owners to come together and offer their services that benefit others.
One room has been taken by a naturopath and another room been taken by a local community group Kaiwaka Cares. Anchal takes yoga classes along with meditative music based on ancient chants and traditional Indian drums.
The building has also been blessed by a local Maori Kaumatua (elder).
