The Olivet Garden Club has had a bumper crop of goodness in their kitchen garden. Hundreds of cherry tomatoes have been growing over summer and last week were harvested by our residents in preparation of chutney making this week.

Our raised vegie boxes are also growing strawberries, corn, pumpkins, lots of herbs and some stunning Dahlia’s 🌺

A tip from us, for the end of the summer growing season; if you have lots of green tomatoes, turn them into green tomato chutney! It's very tasty with cheese and biscuits!

We’re thrilled to share that this month we have not one, but two Employee of the Month winners, after an incredible tie in votes! 🎉👏

Please join us in congratulating Sushil Bist and Pha Onuma Pedzik, our February 2025 award recipients.

🌿 Introducing the Olive Branch Café | A new memory café for our community 🌿

We’re excited to share that a new memory café is launching in Croydon Hills this April. The Olive Branch Café is a warm, welcoming space for people living with dementia and their family carers to come along together.

Held at the Yarrunga Community Centre, the café offers a relaxed couple of hours every second Tuesday during term time, starting 28th April. Enjoy morning tea, gentle activities, and the chance to connect with others who understand the journey.

This space is designed for:

🌿 People living with dementia attending together with their family carer.
🌿 Family carers who’d like connection, information and support while attending with the person they care for.

Each session is hosted by an experienced dementia‑care and lifestyle professional, supported by friendly volunteers. Our focus is simple: creating a safe, social environment where everyone feels welcome, understood and valued.

📅 Starting Tuesday 28 April
📍 Yarrunga Community Centre, Croydon Hills
📞 To join us, contact Angela Welch: (03) 9131 5500 (option 3)

A few weeks ago, our residents were treated to something truly special.
Meg, who often blesses us with her beautiful singing voice, returned to perform once again, but this time she brought a familiar face with her: Thomas from our very own Maintenance Team.
Together, Meg and Thomas shared a series of musical duets with a Valentine’s Day twist. One crowd favourite was the much‑loved Anna and Hans duet “Love is an Open Door” from Disney’s Frozen, which had plenty of smiles from the audience.
It was a joyful afternoon filled with music and a whole lot of heart.

🎶 Thank you, Meg and Thomas, for bringing such warmth and talent to our community! 🎶

💗Happy Valentine’s Day from all of us at Olivet!💗
Thanks for bringing the love, colour and joy to our home, we’ve absolutely loved seeing everyone dressed in their pinks and reds.

It’s the little moments of connection, kindness and fun that make our community so special. 💗

Here’s to the wonderful staff who show love in action every single day. 💗💗💗

🎶 Social Club at Ruby Café 🎶
There’s something special about a Friday afternoon at Olivet when Social Club rolls around. Last week our on-site Ruby Café was buzzing with conversation, music and plenty of laughter as residents, families and staff came together to unwind.

With drinks, tasty snacks on hand and a wonderful performance, it was the perfect chance for everyone to relax, connect and enjoy each other’s company. These simple moments of joy are exactly what make our community feel like home.

Social Club runs every week in Ruby Café, and we love seeing familiar faces and welcoming new ones too!

[See if you can guess what gives Ruby Café it's name...]

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our school‑holiday activity at Olivet today. What a bright, sunny, warm day it was!

Families, residents and volunteers shared laughter and stories as Myuna Farm brought ducks, guinea pigs, rabbits, sheep, chickens, a cat, a dog and even a turtle for everyone to meet.

Highlights from the morning: children introducing their families to residents, gentle animal encounters and a relaxed BBQ lunch where generations connected.

Just before Christmas last year, we officially opened our beautifully refurbished Olivet kitchen, a milestone that brought so much joy and relief after months of renovation.

The opening wasn’t just about unveiling a new space, it was a chance to recognise the incredible resilience of our Kitchen and Catering Team, who spent four months adapting, relocating and reinventing their workflows to keep hundreds of residents, staff and visitors nourished every single day.

Thank you again to our dedicated staff, our residents and families, and everyone who supported this project from start to finish.

This kitchen continues to be a place where care, connection and heart come together in every meal!

Congratulations to our Employee of the Month for December 2025!

We’re thrilled to celebrate Andrea Green from our Lifestyle team as Olivet’s Employee of the Month.

Throughout December, we highlighted our core values of Respect, Compassion, Responsibility and Kindness, along with the Fruit of the Spirit: Love.

We invited our community to nominate a team member who truly lives these values, and Andrea’s name shone brightly.

Here’s what one nomination said:
“Andrea has a genuine love and passion for her work. She goes out of her way to encourage residents to get involved, offering a wonderful variety of activities. She is patient, kind and supports a diverse range of residents with care and understanding.”

Andrea, thank you for the joy, creativity and heart you bring to Olivet every day. Your dedication makes a real difference.

Please join us in celebrating Andrea, we’re so proud to have her on our team! 👏
