Restvale

Great ideas. Thanks everyone for them and keep them coming. Remember we are all doing a fantastic job no matter how big or small it is. Keep up the great work.

We have arranged with our local schools to visit on regular occasions. The children play games and read with the Residents. They also offer end of term performances and special plays, especially end of year Christmas performances. The Residents love it and it keeps them connected to their community.

Really like the "This day in History..." articles. Lots of information and reminiscing topics. A day can nearly go on for a week! :) Thanks for all the hard research that you have done for them.

Hi folks,
couldn't find the text for the quiz??

We have a church service in the morning via the radio therefore not much to set up for carers and in the afternoon have a movie. We (lifestyle) set up the day before and have it all ready for the carers to do. Our morning and afternoon tea is served by kitchen staff. Our residents are quite happy with this as we also promote that it is 'family time'! with families.

Don't forget change of address forms for the electoral.
Hand cream
pens, pencils.
colouring item
note pad
lollies/food item
balloon!
Hope these help. Susan has covered quite a few.

You could ask some volunteers if they have anything that they do not want anymore and would be willing to donate some!

Hi Solage & crew,
Thank you SO much for this message...I needed it today!
Have a happy Christmas & enjoy a break yourselves.
