What a night! The Property Council New Zealand Rider Levett Bucknall Property Industry Awards is the most prestigious property awards programme in New Zealand - and as you can see, we were filled with a moment of joyous celebration as Our Whare Our Fale was named Winner of the Community and Affordable Housing Category.For us, this is not just a project. This is the shape of hope, realised for our community. The journey has been guided by an unwavering deep conviction of the values that make us who we are: values of respect, gratitude and service. They exist to deepen the connections we have with ourselves, with each other and with the environments we live in. A special thank you to the vast community of partners who are in the fabric of this story.

We recently had the privilege of welcoming construction students from Mana College and their parents and aiga to the Mua i Malae shared fale, as they prepare to begin work with Holmes on the next shared fale as part of the Our Whare Our Fale development.
We came together to share a meal, build relationships, and ground the work in its deeper purpose. They learned about the cultural significance of the fale and malae, and how their contribution helps support the wellbeing of Pacific families. We are incredibly grateful for the support of Holmes Construction and Mana College. We look forward to seeing their work come to life as part of a project grounded in Pasefika values, collective strength, and the wellbeing of our people.

We were truly grateful and blessed to recently host both the New Zealand Police Māori, Pacific and Ethnic Services fono and the Porirua Pacific Service Network meeting.
These gatherings gave us a special opportunity to share the next stages of the Our Whare Our Fale Pasefika Housing Project and talanoa with those who serve and support our communities every day. We are now preparing for the next stage of the build — including 32 additional homes planned for completion by the end of 2026.

Framing is coming together across Sites 1.2 and 1.3, bringing the vision of our village one step closer to reality. It’s exciting to see the structures take shape and imagine the families who will soon call these homes their own.
If you’re interested in being part of this community, now is the time to start your journey.
