A marvellous Monday for ‘Poetry in Motion’ at Burlington Lakehouse, with the residents coming alive with our fun music! 🎶
By the light of the silvery moon….we were inspired to write some poetry. A bit of a tale about Jack and Jill, with some lovely poems and fun rhymes. Beautiful smiles and interaction from Daphne, William, Jocelyn, Orane, Rosalie and Cindy.
We were so impressed with the singing and all the song lyrics known. Dennis, Frances, Maureen and Cindy had fun dancing 💃 🕺🏻
Thank you Maria and staff, we had lots of fun 💕

☀️ A sunshiney Friday at Alpine View with birthday girl Micah 🎈 and the lovely team 😎😎
Mavis & Myrtle turned some heads again at the hair salon.
Our favourite herb Basil enjoyed all of the songs, along with Vonnie knowing all of the words to Que Sera Sera 🎶
Lady Lacey at one point did not want to be a Doggy in the window, rather off on the hunt for crumbs!
Marvellous scarf wearing by Brian, and front and centre Lois Lane and Peter Piper. Sebian, Leslie, Maria, Goodnight Aileen and Mary Contrary were a simply lovely audience.
Thank you 💕

We took the residents around the world in 80 days and provided plenty of fun and laughter-especially when Mavis had to battle the croc🐊 when we waltzed with Matilda!! 🇦🇺
A tear was shed by dear Dennis with Dean Martin’s That’s Amore ❤️
French Orane enjoyed our travel through France 🇫🇷 with Edith Piaf.
