Welcome to our community!

We're the Greenhaus Community - a residential community in Newtown, Wellington. We used to live in a large house built in 1906, with lots of friends living near by. In February 2016, nearly all of us moved out of the big haus and we handed it over to our friends the INK Community. Now we live somewhere nearby in a multitude of different houses connected to one another.

We were first established some time around 1999 (check out our alumni list here). You can contact us at greenhausnz at gmail dot com.

The escalator

This was one of my favourite videos of 2013. Everyone can learn something from it and feel empowered at the same time!


The central message is on the escalator at 4:40. When something goes wrong, what do you focus on? What's in your control, or what's not in your control? What escalators are you stuck on?

Part of why this video caught my attention was its universal message. It's not aimed at any one group of people, everyone struggles with feeling disempowered at times. This talk takes that feeling, humour-ises it and shows us a way out.
