Only a small and personal Arts and crafts session this morning (think the other residents were all tired out from enjoying yesterday’s singer too much 🤪)
However we made some lovely crafts from recycling some old toilet roll holders.
In the words of Tina (who helped create these) ‘so simple, yet so effective’

Such a great start to the week for our residents, with the very talented Vocalist Sian Hawkins coming in to sing for us yesterday afternoon.
We all thought she was wonderful and can’t wait to have her back again 🎤

💐 Another wonderful ‘Flower arranging club’ this morning.So many beautiful vases created and displayed around the home 💐

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 St George’s day 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

All dressed in a splash of red (St George’s favorite colour)…
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿We made the most delicious scones in our cooking club, to have with our afternoon tea.
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿We did a small quiz about St George which we all learned a lot from… Did you know that he had never visited England? 🤔
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿We had some big smiles all around this afternoon, watching a Punch and Judy show (who St George is a featured character in) which bought back lots of childhood memories
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿Not forgetting the debate of jam or cream first on the scone? The cream first seemed to be the winner (but only just)

🌎 Earth day 🌍

What a super busy day we have had in honour of this day.
The residents finalised their personalised colourings of them ‘hugging’ the earth, which we displayed for everyone to see.
They did some ‘Earth’ themed word search’s.
Did a science experiment, which created our own mini earths to look at.
And finished off the afternoon with some games.
They managed to get 60 words in the unscrambled words game today, with the words ‘Earth day’ mixed up.
And did amazing at the ABC game, which they had to think of a country for.

🌎 EARTH DAY 🌍

We really enjoyed making our own mini earths this morning, in our science experiment.
This activity was also great for sensory (seeing the mixture bubble up, and the smell of the products used to create it) and dexterity (squirting the mixture out the syringes)

I think we ALL fell in love with our little visitor today 🐐
Meet Dexter the goat, who is just 4 months old and stole our hearts this afternoon ❤️
So content being cuddled by EVERYONE.

We can’t wait to welcome him back again sometime this year, and see how much he has grown by then.
Thank you ‘Goat Adventures’ for bringing him in to see us, all the way from Taunton 🐐

Residents (and staff) got asked a very important question this morning…

‘What advice would you give the younger generation’… or ‘your younger self’

This bought back some lovely memories for them of what their parents told them as children.
Here are some of the answers…
