With the recent spate of hot weather, it was the perfect time to enjoy a refreshing summer afternoon tea experience with delicious gelato and ice creams. Our courtyards came alive as family members came along to enjoy a scoop of summer outdoors. Thanks to Ash and his Catering team for bringing a little extra sweetness and fun to the season!

We were privileged to welcome Chief Rabbi Mirvis KBE of the United Hebrew Congregations of the Commonwealth to Emmy—an experience made possible through our partnership with St Kilda Shule.
His visit offered a rare chance to hear directly from one of the most influential Jewish voices of our time during his stay in Australia. For our community, the evening felt genuinely special. The program began with a joyful performance by the St Kilda Shule Choir, then Chief Rabbi Mirvis shared a meaningful address about the importance of giving, and the need to continue strengthening our sense of responsibility for one another through everyday acts of kindness and care.
It was an occasion that will long be remembered—a unique milestone for Emmy Monash.

A Special International Women’s Day Visit🌸

We were delighted to welcome Suzi Finkelstein for an uplifting and collaborative conversation about the ways women of all ages can inspire positive change within our community.
With almost two decades of experience in leadership development, Suzi brought a wealth of insight to Emmy. She encouraged residents to reflect on their own strengths and think about how we can create an environment where everyone feels supported to grow and thrive.
This event was funded by the Emmy Monash Foundation.

Purim at Emmy burst with colour, laughter and energy!
Students from Mount Scopus Year 10 and Chabad Youth Year 12 brought the fun, dressing up with residents and staff for a fabulous intergenerational celebration.
Residents lovingly made Mishloach Manot for the students, adding even more joy and connection to the day.
Music, dancing and plenty of hamentashen kept the party going, while the heart of the celebration shone through with a spirited Megillah reading by Rabbi Stern.
 
An unforgettable Purim for everyone! 🎉✨

Today, on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we paused to remember lives lost and stories that must never be forgotten.
We heard from Dr Simon Holloway from the Melbourne Holocaust Museum, whose words reminded us of the importance of keeping these stories alive. Rabbi Daniel Rabin guided us in prayer, and John Kraus recited the Kaddish, adding a moment of solemn reflection for everyone present.
Even if words cannot capture the depth of history, today we honour it — and the lives forever changed.
Never forget.

Today, our Emmy community gathered for a deeply moving National Day of Mourning commemoration. Together, we honoured the 15 precious lives tragically taken in the December Bondi Beach terror attack.
In a powerful act of unity and remembrance, 15 Emmy representatives — including our CEO, residents, family members, volunteers and staff — each lit a candle. Fifteen flames, symbolising fifteen souls, stood as a reminder that even in darkness, light will always rise.
Yaakov Glasman led us in heartfelt prayer, offering strength and solace. We also heard from Chavi Israel-Block, a courageous young woman who witnessed the events at Bondi and shared her emotional reflections with grace and bravery.
Music by Nethaniel Camilleri and Mendy Winner lifted our spirits, filling the room with comfort, hope and connection.
Residents, families, volunteers and staff stood side‑by‑side — united in grief, united in compassion, united in light.
Today we remembered.
Today we honoured.
And today, together, we reaffirmed: Light will win.

Joe Krampel AM’s panel honours his remarkable tenure, guiding us through the development of Gandel House and the early days of the pandemic.
The second recognises our current President, Rod Nirens, whose leadership champions staff development and a strong, strategic future for Emmy.
