Carrington Place Retirement Residence

Nothing helps get rid of last year’s frustration better than a game of darts — especially with seniors playing, where the aim is steady"ish" and the laughter always hits the target 😄🎯

As 2025 comes to a close, we pause with grateful hearts for the year we’ve shared together. We are thankful for the many joyful moments, the laughter, and the sense of community that makes this place feel very much like home. We also honour the losses we’ve experienced—friends who are missed and memories that remain with us—holding them with respect and love. Through it all, we’ve found comfort in one another, strength in togetherness, and plenty of fun along the way. Thank you to everyone who helped make this year meaningful, memorable, and filled with care and love.
Excited about what 2026 has in store for us!

Carrington Place was filled with holiday cheer during our Christmas dinner for seniors, made even more special by a visit from Santa himself. Santa delighted residents as he handed out gifts, shared smiles, and posed for photos—spreading joy to everyone, whether they were naughty or nice. The room was filled with laughter, warmth, and festive spirit as residents enjoyed the celebration together.

The residents were treated to a delicious turkey dinner with all the fixings, which was thoroughly enjoyed and added to the sense of togetherness. The afternoon was nicely complemented by beautiful music played by Krishanthi, who has shared her talent with our residents throughout the year. It was a wonderful day of good food, good company, and so much holiday fun for all.

We were busy with some reindeer games, laughing all the way, all while trying to hook a reindeer. It’s moments like these that remind us Christmas joy isn’t only for little kids—our seniors bring just as much fun.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to our Holiday Raffle and Food Drive. Together, we raised roughly $850, with all proceeds going to Ancaster Community Services.

Congratulations to all of our prize winners! I’ve shared a few photos featuring some of the winners.

In the end, we are all winners—because supporting our community is the biggest win of all.

🌟 Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
Sagittarius energy encourages warmth, kindness, and sharing wisdom. December is a wonderful time to enjoy reminiscing, passing along traditions, and spending time with people who make you smile. Your life experiences are truly valued.

🌟 Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
Capricorn season brings steadiness and reflection. This is a perfect time to slow down, appreciate how far you’ve come, and look ahead with quiet confidence. Simple plans and peaceful moments will feel especially rewarding.

💫 December Thought:
The season reminds us that joy often comes from connection—good conversation, familiar routines, and time spent together.

Beauty can be created by anyone, even those who insist they aren’t the least bit creative. Donna and Suzanne proved that today. With a little time, patience, glue, and plenty of love, they made the most beautiful Christmas cards. The pride and joy on their faces said it all. I’m continually impressed by what they create. Wonderful work!
