Athena in Bloom 🌸🍃

From transforming their gardens, to creating new outdoor spaces and even baking cakes, our residents and teams have been busy participating in our annual Athena in Bloom competition.

It has officially been a week since judging closed, and the homes are waiting expectantly to hear who the winner will be!

The prize, of course, is a very coveted Athena in Bloom Spade, currently sitting with Avocet Court, the winners from last year!

Good luck to all of our residents and teams! 🌟
