Dragon Marionettes
St George's Day preparations are well under way here at Bowerfield Court. We have painted and assembled our very own way dragon marionettes and practised using them ready for our planned puppet show. We are currently making our St George marionettes and will be retelling the story of St George and the Dragon at our themed party next week.
Bunny Ears
We had great fun with our blown up bunny ears and hoops over the Easter period.
Easter Egg Hunt
We had a great time searching for the Easter Eggs we all shared and everyone enjoyed a chocolate egg.
Puzzles and Fun at Hope Green
A lovely morning of puzzles, music and fun for residents and staff at Hope Green. We'll definitely be doing this activity together again soon as it was a great success.
Holi Hindu Festival
The festival of Holi was celebrated at Kings Court recently. The dining room was decorated with lots of artwork made by the people who live at Kings Court. The staff team dressed in traditional dress and brought a variety of Indian foods for tasting. There was lots of Holi music and dancing. Everyone agreed it was a fantastic day filled with new experiences for everyone. The day brought lots of joy, colour and laughter to residents and the staff team.
Clarendon's St Patrick's Day
We had a great St Patrick's Day here at Clarendon Court, highlight was a special Irish karaoke, some good voices amongst us.
Good Friday Party
A very busy Good Friday party, lots of different activities on hand from bunny racing to eggstafactor singing to making Easter bonnets. What a great Easter we had this year.
Horticultural Heaven!
Many of the people who live at Abingdon Court are green fingered and have very fond memories of tending to their gardens and allotments back at their homes. With the weather looking less bleak we decided it was time to put on our garden gloves, grab our trowels, and get planting!
Spring Planting
Work has begun on the herb and vegetable patch for Princess Lodge. It's still early days but there is plenty of potting and planting happening. Tomatoes, courgettes, and cucumber are the first selection of vegetables to be planted with more to come.
Easter Treats
A big thank you from the team at Hope Green for the lovely Easter treats to say thank you for looking after their loved ones. These treats were thoroughly enjoyed by the team whilst on shift over the Easter weekend!
