We had a games afternoon at Belmont. The residents had a lot of fun and enjoyed playing the different games such as dominos, scrabble, bingo and snakes and ladders. 

Terry Williams came to our home and performed an amazing outdoor concert for us. This was enjoyed by all.  

Here at Belmont, some of our residents did some craft work with Gee in the Plaza. 

Here are a few pictures of our Easter raffle goodie hampers. 

Rita is making up goodie bags for the community centres. 

Emma James singing for us despite the chilly air outside. 

Residents were also donated a daffodil when they were leaving the concert area.

The residents trailed out some new exercise bands on Thursday. They are partly made from cotton so easier to grip and softer on the hands. The residents did brilliantly doing more formal exercises like bicep curls and experimented with their own movement. 

It was a week of exercise with residents trying out their jab, cross, hook and upper cut for the boxing session. The residents practiced their hand-eye coordination by hitting the pads with their boxing gloves and we had some great right hooks!

We used our fine motor skills today to pop the silicone bubbles. The residents took it in turns to use their fingers and thumbs to push the bubbles through to the other side. After a few turns, the residents began to see who could pop the most the fastest. We have quite a few competitive residents playing today. 

We had an American Day at Mary Chapman Court 50's style.  Starting the day off with what else but Grease which was a song-a-long special edition.  We were also treated to cheeseburgers, hot dogs, curly fries, and knickerbocker glories for lunch.  After lunch was a bit of cake decorating with special American rice paper toppers.  A lot of the staff were happy to dress up for the day too.

Our residents painted birds which we attached to twigs of handmade blossom to decorate the lounge.
