Last week's Wisdom and Wonder playgroup was fantastic - both the young and young at heart had a great time! 💗

It's been lovely watching friendships blossom between grandfriends as everyone gets to know each other.

Trick or treat at Rubicon Grove was a huge hit! 👻🧛🍬🎃

One of our wonderful family members, Tracey, organised the Halloween evening for us, working with residents to decorate and package up 150 treat bags.

So many families visited to show off their costumes and pick up a lolly bag. We absolutely loved all the children's outfits, and their excitement was contagious 🧟

A huge thank you to Tracey, the residents who worked on the Halloween treats, and all the families who came to see us!

Rubicon Grove's wet-weather Plan B skills were put to the test last week! ☔

Our luncheon was rained out, but thanks to Shearwater food co who packed up our 🐟fish and chips🍟 to go, we enjoyed lunch at home in Ruby's Cafe.

It was also good weather to stay in and notch up more kilometres for our Road Worlds for Seniors tally. The event has been great for getting us feeling competitive and motivated, looking forward to our daily 5 kms 🚴 We also pulled out the pickle ball net, which was a laugh!
