BREAKING NEWS! “Flood ‘n’ Drought Station” Episode 1 is now live! In an exciting world first, residents have been writing their very own comedy radio serial. A huge thank you to volunteers and friends for producing it. New episodes will be posted at the beginning of each month, so stay tuned!
What a pleasure to recap the past busy months! We made the most of beautiful weather with a picnic at Redhead, lunch outings to Hexham Bowling Club and 3 Sicilians Restaurant, and scenic drives to see the New Lambton Heights jacarandas, the beaches, Morpeth and the Hunter Valley. Monthly international fine dining experiences featured cuisine from France, Germany and Greece. We had a visit from “Bubsey” the Citroen, the first car to drive around Australia 100 years ago! Melbourne Cup was a fantastic day with fascinators, fashions on the field, and a red carpet. Thanks to the kitchen for catering, especially the Devils on horseback! Hosting community visitors is important to us. The Callaghan College Inclusive Education school boys have enjoyed their monthly visits, helping with art, craft and games. Many school and community groups will join us over Christmas. We’re looking forward to unveiling the next group art project, and the Choir will perform on Wednesday 17th December. We’ve enjoyed great concerts, including a classical piano recital, and special thanks to Wayne Rodgers of Flamingos for tickets to an afternoon cabaret at his Lambton venue. The car wash was a great afternoon with our “cars” (4w walkers) getting a good clean and milkshakes all round! Morning Lifestyle Musical Exercises continue to be popular, a great way to start the day with movement, laughter and even dance moves! Christmas highlights include Carols by Candlelight on Friday 5th December at 6:30pm, Christmas Lights Night Bus Trips on Tuesday 16th and Thursday 18th at 6:30pm, and the Residents Christmas Party with Wayne Rodgers on Friday 12th from 2pm. On behalf of Jemma, Mandy, Natalie and Jo, thank you for your support for a fantastic year! Stay active, stay social and stay well! Grahame
