🪔 Celebrating Diwali at Fairway 🪔

Recently at Fairway, we took the time to recognise Diwali, the Festival of Lights, as part of our commitment to celebrating cultural days and the rich diversity within our community. 🧡

Diwali represents the triumph of light over darkness, hope over hardship, and new beginnings. Moments like these give us the opportunity to learn, reflect, and come together in appreciation of different cultures.

We’re proud to celebrate cultural days that bring connection and understanding to our residents, staff and families 🌿

🐾 Paws bring joy at Fairway 🐾

Our pet therapy visits are a highlight of the week at Fairway. The delight on residents’ faces when a friendly pooch walks through the door says it all 💛

Pet therapy offers so many benefits, from reducing feelings of loneliness and anxiety, to encouraging gentle movement, conversation, and meaningful connection. For many residents, these visits spark treasured memories of pets they’ve loved throughout their lives.

We’re incredibly grateful to have three dedicated volunteers who generously give their time each week, bringing their gentle, well-trained pups to spend time with our residents. The happiness they bring is truly priceless 🐶✨

Hot days call for extra care ☀️💧

As the weather heats up, staying cool and well-hydrated becomes more important than ever. At Fairway, we’re keeping a close eye on everyone’s comfort, offering plenty of water, icy poles, sunscreen, cool spaces, and gentle reminders to sip throughout the day.

A glass of water might seem small, but it makes a big difference. Let’s look after ourselves and each other during these warmer days 🌿

Merry Christmas from all of us at Fairway 🎄✨

Thank you to our incredible Fairway community - our staff, residents, families and volunteers, for your hard work, care and fun times throughout the year. It’s certainly been a year to remember!

Wishing everyone a wonderful festive season, and here’s to celebrating an exciting 2026 ahead 🎉✨

💜 Thinking about respite care — or just needing a breather? You’re not alone.

Sometimes caring for someone you love means knowing when you need a break and that’s okay 🌿 It can also mean wanting a gentle way to explore what the future might look like, without pressure or big decisions straight away.

At Fairway, respite care offers short-term support for a few days or a few weeks. Whether you need time to rest, travel, attend appointments, or simply want to see how your loved one settles into an aged care environment, respite can be a supportive first step.

During their stay, your loved one enjoys nutritious, home-style meals, personalised care tailored to their needs, and the comfort of a welcoming, community-focused home. They also have full access to our lifestyle program at no additional charge - including our much-loved Cycling Without Age program, music, art, movement, social activities and special events, always with the freedom to join in as much or as little as they choose.

For carers, respite can bring relief, reassurance and time to recharge 💚 For your loved one, it can mean new connections, a change of scenery and gentle support in a warm, respectful environment. It can also be a chance to see if Fairway feels like the right fit for the future ✨

If respite care might support you or someone you care for, we’re always happy to talk it through 😊 Sometimes a small pause makes all the difference.

❤️ At Fairway, our people are at the heart of everything we do.

✨ This month, we’re delighted to shine the spotlight on Brenda Edwards, who has been working at Fairway Aged Care for over 16 years. Brenda’s thoughtful and grounded outlook is a beautiful reminder of the value of connection and enjoying life’s simple moments 🌿

1. Are there any cultural traditions or celebrations that hold special meaning for you? 🙏🐣🎄

I have been attending church since my teenage years, so Easter and Christmas are important to me. Christmas at Fairway is always a special time for the residents and staff!

2. How do you recharge and take care of yourself outside of work? 💆‍♀️🏉

I find that attending a Collingwood match is a great way for me to recharge and enjoy life outside of work. Being part of the crowd, feeling the energy, and supporting my team helps me switch off mentally and feel uplifted. I also enjoy an occasional massage to recharge physically.

3. What’s your way of spending a quiet weekend? 🌊🎬🎶

A quiet weekend for me usually involves going for a walk to the beach, getting takeaway, watching a movie, listening to Smooth FM or playing cards and board games. Sometimes I even enjoy a relaxing spa day. These simple pleasures help me slow down, reset, and reconnect with myself.

4. If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go and why? 🛳️

I would absolutely love to go on a Mediterranean cruise and explore the Greek islands, especially Mykonos. The idea of experiencing different cultures, enjoying beautiful scenery, and embracing a relaxed pace of life really appeals to me.

5. How do you define success in your personal life? 🏆💍

I define success by being open, honest, positive, and persevering. Two major milestones that stand out for me are working at Fairway Aged Care for over 16 years and being married for 38 years.

6. How do you stay connected with friends and family in your busy life? ☕

I make an effort to set aside time to catch up at a local café or share a family dinner. Even with busy schedules, these moments of connection are important to me. They help maintain strong relationships and ensure that no matter how hectic life gets, family and friends remain a priority.

7. Are there life lessons or advice you would like to share with others? 😊🙏

I treat others the way I would like to be treated. My motto is “Enjoy life. Laugh.” I try to tell my family that everything will work out in the end and don’t worry! Prayer also gives me peace, and it helps me stay centred, especially during challenging times.

🌟 We’re grateful to have Brenda as part of our Fairway community and thank her for sharing her story with us.

🎄 Bus Trip to the 3196 Indoor Market! 🎁

Today our residents enjoyed a festive little adventure to the 3196 Indoor Market — the perfect spot to get a head start on Christmas shopping!

There were lots of smiles as residents browsed the stalls, choosing thoughtful gifts for their friends and families. From handmade crafts to Christmas goodies, everyone found something special to tuck away for December.

And of course, no outing is complete without a relaxed coffee stop ☕✨
We wrapped up the morning with a cosy café break, enjoying the atmosphere and soaking in the simple joy of being out together.

🥂The Ladies of Fairway Enjoy a Champagne🥂

For many, the transition into aged care can feel like a big step, one that comes with mixed emotions and tough decisions. It’s not just about moving into a new home; it’s about finding comfort in knowing you’re in good hands, that your health and wellbeing are supported, and that life’s little joys are still waiting to be savoured. ✨

At Fairway, it’s also about connection — sharing stories, laughter and a glass of champagne with others who understand your journey. It’s about friendship, purpose and moments that make you smile. 😁

And for families, it means more time to enjoy the good things together — not just the medical appointments and errands, but the chats, the outings and the celebrations. 🥳

Because life at Fairway isn’t about slowing down, it’s about finding new reasons to enjoy the ride. 💜

👏 Success! 3 of our 4 CWA Bikes Have Been Found! 👏

We’re thrilled to share some fantastic news — three of our four Cycling Without Age bikes have been found! ✨

Thanks to the incredible work of Bayside Police, the bikes were located after a thorough investigation and were even ridden back from the station to Fairway by the officers themselves — a truly heartwarming moment that reminded us of what community care looks like in action! 🤩

We could not have done this without the amazing support of our community. A heartfelt thank you to Jacquie Felgate and Brad Rowswell MP for helping share our story far and wide, bringing so much awareness and support, and to everyone who shared our post on social media, thank you – your shares, comments and words of encouragement helped spread the message and made all the difference. 🙏

And a very special thank you to Ross, Chair of CWA Balnarring, who generously lent us a tri-bike so our residents could continue riding while we waited for news — that gesture meant the world to us. 👏

It’s this kind of community spirit that makes Bayside and Fairway such a special place to live. 💜
