Wow! 2026!
It seems such a long time ago since Christmas. “Santa and his Elves” visited each resident and gave out a Christmas present. Photos were taken and sent out to family members. Some family members joined their loved ones for Christmas lunch. Thank you to all the staff who worked on Christmas Day and a special thank you to the kitchen staff who went the extra mile to ensure that the dining room was set up beautifully and the selection offered for Christmas buffet lunch was amazing.

The activities calendar is full of wonderful events for the month of January. This week we celebrate what would have been Elvis Presley’s 91st birthday with his music and a game of pin the blue suede shoes on Elvis’ feet. At the end of the month, we celebrate Martin Luther King and poet/lyricist Robbie Burns with all things Scottish. We are hoping to get a bagpiper in to play.

Happiest of birthday wishes go to Bill who celebrated his birthday on Tuesday.

Thank you to the ukulele group who came and sang and played to our residents last Monday afternoon.
We had a bunch of little cuties and their teachers come from Best Start Childcare in Whangamata come last Thursday. The rest home residents had made playdough and the little ones and residents enjoyed using cookie cutters to make shapes. Unfortunately, the playdough got a bit sticky, so hands needed cleaning afterwards. The children sang Christmas songs as well which was thoroughly enjoyed. We even had a visit from Kaye and Denva which the children loved. A huge thank you to Best Start Childcare for allowing us to share the lovely photos of their visit.
Also taken was a group photo of as many residents and staff that we could muster up.
