Message from the Lifestyle Team
Winter has returned, and with it, the excitement of the Ekka in Brisbane! Our residents and staff were busy creating decorations for our annual Ekka Day celebration, which took place on
Tuesday, August 12. Much fun was had by all as we brought the spirit of the Ekka to our home, ensuring everyone could join in the festivities. The day was filled with classic Ekka treats like dagwood dogs, strawberry sundaes, and other goodies. Residents and staff enjoyed fun games and activities throughout the day. A big thank you to our amazing team who worked hard to make the event so enjoyable for everyone! Spiritual Support Church services and communion continue to be held every Sunday. When clergy are unavailable, staff organize Songs of Praise, followed by a relaxing morning tea. In addition, both Catholic Mass and an Anglican service are held monthly on the rooftop, and all are welcome to attend. Pamper Day In July, we hosted a spa day where residents were treated to soothing foot spas and massages. About a third of our residents joined in, and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive. It was a lovely, relaxing experience for all who attended. We remain committed to providing meaningful, inclusive activities for all residents. Our Lifestyle Team is always open to feedback and new ideas to ensure there’s something for everyone to enjoy each day.
