Community Happenings Spring
What a wonderful spring it’s been at Cumberland View! As the weather warmed and the gardens bloomed, we filled our days with music, laughter, delicious food and cherished moments with friends old and new. From milestone celebrations to exciting outings, live entertainment to special visitors, this season has been packed with joy and connection. Let’s take a look back at all the memorable experiences we’ve shared together over the past few months. Musical Moments and Live Entertainment Spring brought a wonderful array of musical performances to our home. We were treated to soothing harp recitals by Susan Graham , energetic performances from guitarist Alex Matthews, and delightful concerts featuring talented students from Wheelers Hill College and Caulfield Grammar. The entertainment continued with engaging performances from Doug D’Rose, The Golden Girls’ 60s celebration, Max the Magician, and our walking minstrel Baruch who charmed us all with music and song. Lorenzo’s concert and the beautiful voices of the Skylarkers and church choir helped bring the festive spirit alive as Christmas approached.
International Flavours and Special Celebrations Our international cuisine programme took us on a culinary journey around the world. September featured a vibrant Mexican celebration complete with traditional fare to mark Mexican Independence Day, whilst November brought traditional American Thanksgiving delights including hot dogs. The spring season was marked by significant celebrations including Father’s Day with Ricky “Elvis”, a spectacular 110th birthday milestone celebration attended by family, friends, the Mayor of Monash and Channel 7, Grandparents Day honouring our beloved Nans and Pops, a colourful Diwali festival with dancing and music, and spooky Halloween festivities.
