We were delighted to begin the Easter long weekend with a wonderful luncheon shared in great company.

A sincere thank you to everyone in our community who supported the Hospital Auxiliary raffle. Congratulations to our lucky winners—June Chapman, who took out first prize, and Lis Spalding, our second prize recipient.

Wishing you all a joyful and relaxing Easter. May your weekend be filled with happiness, and may the Easter Bunny—or perhaps even an Easter duckling—bring a little extra seasonal cheer 🐣🐥🐣🐥

Did you know that Saint Kitts and Nevis is the smallest country in the Western Hemisphere, yet it’s packed with history, beauty, and unique experiences?

We “visited” there last week for armchair travel. This twin-island nation, formed by volcanic landscapes, is home to a scenic railway that once carried sugar cane and now offers breathtaking views for visitors.

It became independent in 1983 but still shares ties with the British monarchy as part of the Commonwealth. Cricket is a huge part of local culture, and the islands have contributed talent to the West Indies team. Fun fact—there are actually more green vervet monkeys than people living there!

We enjoyed Brown Stewed Chicken with braised cabbage and a yummy cinnamon coconut pudding.

Nevis, the quieter of the two islands, is also the birthplace of Alexander Hamilton. With its laid-back vibe, rich heritage, and stunning scenery, it’s truly one of the Caribbean’s hidden gems

From the surf to the still waters of Lake St Clair, yesterday’s journey into the countryside was nothing short of memorable.

Our residents enjoyed a beautiful day surrounded by nature, complete with a relaxed BBQ and the peaceful backdrop of the lake.

A sincere thank you to Paul from Robin Hood Bar & Bistro Jerrys Plains, whose local knowledge guided us along scenic, lesser-known roads—reminding us that sometimes the journey itself is just as meaningful as the destination.

For many of our residents, these landscapes hold deep personal significance. As we travelled, stories of years gone by were shared with warmth and nostalgia—memories of long days spent tending vineyards, family-owned properties that have evolved over time, weekend gatherings across old bridges, and early mornings on dairy farms where hard work began before sunrise. Each story offered a glimpse into lives rich with experience, resilience, and community.

Moments like these are truly special. Creating the time and space for our residents to reconnect with their past is a privilege, and being entrusted with their stories is something we deeply value.

It was a day filled with connection, reflection, and appreciation

Muswellbrook Show has been a highlight for our residents over the years and we were delighted we could visit the Show again this year.

It was a great day out and our residents were excited to see their hard work pay off, coming away with a first and second in the artwork and first, second and third in the photography section.

We were absolutely thrilled for our resident Gloria Wicks who received first, second and third ribbons for some of her own work. Well done – it was a lovely birthday surprise for her!

Lunch at the Workies on the way home topped off the day.

Over the years we’ve had some cracker entries – take a look.

Well done to Asha who celebrated her one year anniversary at Denman MPS this week.

Asha, an overseas trained nurse originally from India, was nursing in England before being sponsored to come and work at our facility.

She has absolutely thrived as an in-charge Registered Nurse and is a much loved part of the MPS family.

Also a big congratulations to Asha and her husband, Salvin, on purchasing a beautiful family home here in Denman. Best wishes for a long, happy and healthy future at the MPS and as part of our wonderful community.

We’ve had a wonderful week at the MPS!

We kicked things off with the Intergenerational Program with St Joseph's Primary School, Denman . It was lovely to see some familiar faces again, and we’re looking forward to all the great moments the year ahead will bring.

Yesterday we were also delighted by a very special visitor – baby joey Flip. One of our kitchen staff members has been raising her at home, and it was lovely for everyone to meet Flip.

Today we celebrated St Patrick’s Day a little early with a green-themed morning tea, some Irish music, and a fun game of Irish bingo. There were lots of laughs and great company all around.

It’s been a fantastic week at the MPS. Wishing everyone a lovely weekend! ☘️

Our armchair travel has started off for the year travelling to Georgia, a fascinating country at the crossroads of Europe and Asia.

Georgia is believed to be the birthplace of wine. People have been making wine there for over 8,000 years using large clay jars called Qvevri, a traditional method recognized by UNESCO.

Some of the oldest human skulls in Europe were discovered in Georgia. They are about 1.8 million years old and help scientists understand how early humans moved from Africa to Europe.

Even though Georgia is a small country, it has 12 different climate zones, ranging from warm subtropical areas to dry semi-deserts and snowy mountains.

Georgia is also home to the deepest cave in the world, Veryovkina Cave, which reaches a depth of 2,212 metres.

In the Svaneti mountains, the village of Ushguli sits about 2,100 metres above sea level, making it one of the highest settlements in Europe.

The capital city, Tbilisi, got its name from the Georgian word for “warm” because of the natural hot springs found there.

Traditional Georgian music is known for polyphonic singing, where several voices sing different melodies at the same time, creating a powerful and unique sound.

During our visit, we enjoyed a delicious Georgian lunch with khachapuri (cheese bread), mtsvadi (grilled meat), and lobio (bean stew). 🍞🥩🥘

Dementia can be a scary word sometimes, especially for families facing uncertainty for the first time.

Dementia, including conditions such as Alzheimer's disease, affects memory and thinking, but it does not take away a person’s dignity, emotions, or need for connection. With patience, understanding, and compassionate care, individuals living with dementia can continue to experience comfort, joy, and meaningful moments.

If you happen to meet someone living with dementia, take a little extra time — offer patience, share a smile, and remember that your kindness can make all the difference. 💜

We had a fun morning with loads of laughs playing games, trivia and quizzes - who would have thought we’d come up with so many terms of affection starting with the letter ……

With love in the air, there was a lot of reminiscing about marriage proposals and weddings.

Barb told the story of Nev having 2 left feet during the bridal waltz and it was only by sheer luck that he didn’t trip them over.

Neita recalls her wedding day in 1948 as the best day of her life.

While there was plenty of wine, beer and yahooing at the family home for Beth and Dancing Don’s wedding, there was no music! Can you believe that?

Helen, who was married 58 years ago in Sydney, said she really enjoyed her day surrounded by 60 odd guests.

The CWA catered at Gloria’s wedding and put on a feast fit for a king and queen.

Neil and Lynne talked about how Lynne’s Aunty Betty was a world champion ballroom dancer and, along with her husband, performed at their wedding. Neil also spoke of their honeymoon up at Surfers Paradise and how they had to cross a couple of rivers by ferry to get there.

It really was great listening to all the stories of days gone by.

Our Valentines Day lunch was super; thank you to our kitchen staff.

Happy Valentines Day for tomorrow to all the lovers and friends out there.
