Celebrating National Italian Day
As well as trying lots of tasty Italian Food we also used a selection of fresh ingredients to top our pizza which we enjoyed for dinner that evening. Bellissima!
Tattoos
Some of the people who live at Princess Lodge decided to have some temporary tattoos on their arm. It was fun choosing their favourite designs.
National Cheese Day
Recently it was National Cheese Day, so we took our cheese tasting into the garden. We had to try a lot of cheeses to decide on our favourites and of course cheese needs ports and grapes, it would be rude not to.
Paper Flowers
Margaret is very artistic and did a wonderful job designing and making paper flowers. These stunning blooms have been displayed around the home and they look beautiful and bright.
Pairing and Sorting
Residents had a great time as they started to share stories of their laundry days as child. It's amazing how simple acts promote such strong memories.
Carers Week
A huge thank you to our carers and our entire team from the bottom of our hearts. You are all amazing, we couldn't be without you all.
Fun in The Park
What a beautiful day to get outside and have a bit of fun, so what if we had to create our own breeze. We had a great time playing games and we even managed to just sit for 5 minutes to enjoy the sun on the way back.
Ice Cream Tasting Day for National Carer's Week
We celebrated National Carer's Week by putting on an ice cream tasting day to say thank you to all our care staff. Residents and staff enjoyed several different flavours of ice cream together with cornets, lollies, wafers, sauces and sprinkles.
National Biscuit Day
Recently it was National Biscuit Day. Now don't be upset we never shared with you, we decided to save them all of us, we managed a lovely tea and biscuits session in the days honour.
ITALIAN PIZZA MAKING
We’ve been reminiscing about summer holiday experiences – whether it was relaxing on the beach in Cornwall, lazing on a gondolier in Venice or enjoying a chilled white wine on a Parisian café terrace. At the beginning of June, the Italians celebrate ‘Republic Day’ as a national holiday, and we thought we would host an Italian inspired event to give people that holiday feeling, and what is more Italian than pizza making!
