What a joyful celebration it was!
Last Sunday, we marked Grandparents Day with an intergenerational event filled with warmth, laughter, and connection, proudly presented in partnership with PJ Library and the Jewish Museum of Australia.
Residents, families, and little ones enjoyed an enchanting interactive performance that brought story to life, sparking smiles across all ages. With the help of our wonderful volunteers, guests created keepsake handprints - a lovely way to capture the joy of the day and take a memory home. The morning was filled with shared laughter, conversation, and creativity- a beautiful reflection of the spirit that makes Emmy Monash so special.
Events like this highlight our commitment to creating meaningful experiences that bring generations together - made possible through the generous support of the ERDI Foundation.

Emmy’s Jewish Generational Joy program brings generations closer together, through activities like baking honey cakes ahead of Rosh Hashanah. These connections help create meaningful friendships that enrich the lives of both residents and students. This program is proudly supported by ERDI Foundation.

Last week, we welcomed students and teachers from The King David School to visit our succah. Guided by some observant residents, the students learned about the traditions of Succot: from holding the lulav and etrog to understanding what the succah represents. The visit ended with warm, freshly baked challah, shared together in a beautiful moment of connection and culture.

Thanks to the Bridging the Gap program, Emmy residents and Mt Scopus students have become true friends, sharing stories and making memories together.
Last week, as part of our Rosh Hashanah celebrations, chair dancing brought everyone together in laughter and joy — smiling, cheering, and sharing the kind of happiness that only comes from being with friends.

As Rosh Hashana begins, we embrace its meaning, traditions, and the hope it brings. It’s a time to reflect on the year that has passed and to look forward with optimism. From all of us at the Emmy Monash Family — Shana Tova!

A conversation could change a life.
At Emmy Monash, we believe in looking out for one another not just today, but every day.
“Are you OK?” is more than a question. It’s a chance to connect, to listen, and to remind someone they’re not alone.
Sometimes it’s as simple as sharing a cup of tea, a biscuit, or a few minutes of genuine conversation.
Let’s keep building a culture of care and compassion that goes beyond the workplace, into every moment we share.

Laughter filled the halls of Emmy on Sunday as Ros Ben-Moshe, wellbeing expert, delivered an inspiring talk and practical exercises on the joy of healthy ageing.
She showed us that joy isn’t just a feeling, it’s something we actively create.
From small everyday moments to meaningful connections, laughter strengthens our hearts, minds, and communities. By embracing curiosity, kindness, and connection, we can thrive at any age.
We were thrilled that Emmy Monash Patron, Mrs Gandel AC, was able to join us, and shared that she found the session both enriching and uplifting.
This session was proudly brought to you by the Emmy Monash Foundation, highlighting the science and practice of joy for healthy ageing and inspiring us all to live with more levity and laughter.
A beautifully prepared brunch, crafted by our own hospitality team, was the perfect way to conclude the event — showcasing not only delicious catering but also the pride we take in creating every dish in-house.

Happy Aged Care Employee Day!
Every moment of care, every act of kindness, comes from the people who make Emmy what it is, all aged care workers, in every role.
We see you, we value you, and we thank you.

A special thanks to our amazing catering team for the delicious BBQ spread yesterday, it was enjoyed by all and made the celebration even warmer.
