🧡 Celebrating Diversity, Culture & Inclusion at Forest View 🧡

Today we celebrated Harmony Day, recognising the importance of diversity, culture, and inclusion in our community.

Residents and staff enjoyed a wonderful “around the world” culinary experience for our special morning tea, sampling a variety of delicious treats. 🌏

It was fantastic to see so many dressed in orange, with the space beautifully decorated to match the occasion.

A great day filled with connection, culture, and celebration – bringing everyone together ❤️

🍀 Celebrating Irish Culture this Month at Forest View! 🍀

Today was a sea of green as we came together to celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day!

Residents and staff enjoyed a fun-filled day with Irish-themed bingo, quizzes, and fun facts, along with plenty of laughs sharing jokes and limericks – and even creating a few of our own!

We got creative making our Irish hats, thanks to the kind donation from Shannon and the team at Childers Woodgate Funeral Services – such a fun activity for everyone involved. 🎩💚

Our Morning tea was also green and Irish to keep within our theme

Even out pet therapy dog Gomez joined in on the fun!

To top off the day, we finished with a Happy Hour, enjoying some delicious Shamrock Shakes!

Fun was had by all – and of course, our staff loved dressing up and getting into the spirit for another fantastic themed day here at Forest View.

From Brew & Tattoos to beautiful flower arrangements all in one afternoon!

We learned so much about the history of tattoos — from the very first tattoo discovered on a mummified body (Ötzi the Iceman!) to the cultural significance of traditional tattooing, right through to the colourful displays of individual expression we see today.

We couldn’t resist getting a little creative ourselves, trying out some removable tattoos to add a bit of fun and spark plenty of laughs!

We then topped off the afternoon creating some stunning flower arrangements, spreading colour and joy throughout the facility.

A thank you to Woolworths Childers for kindly donating the beautiful flowers — we truly appreciate these

🎊 Celebrating Chinese New Year at Forest View! 🧧🐉

What a fantastic celebration we had bringing in Chinese New Year with our very own Chinese pop-up restaurant!

Our awesome kitchen team prepared a delicious Chinese buffet that was beautifully presented and absolutely enjoyed by all. From the flavours to the decorations, it truly felt like a special cultural experience right here at Forest View.

The pop-up restaurant was a huge hit, filled with laughter, full plates, and happy hearts. ❤️

We love creating moments that celebrate culture, community, and connection.

Flippin’ good fun for Shrove Tuesday! 🥞
We stacked, we topped, and we definitely indulged! From classic lemon and sugar to over-the-top creations, everyone enjoyed designing their very own pancake masterpieces. A delicious day filled with joy (and maybe a little extra syrup 😉).

Love and friendships have certainly been in the air this week at Forest View! 💖

We got creative making some unique Valentine’s cards that are sure to impress, and whipped up some delicious chocolate bark filled with all sorts of goodies in our cooking class.

Today we celebrated with a lovely morning tea together, followed by Valentine-themed bingo in the afternoon — all while enjoying some fun “Love Boat” floats!

A special thank you to Des Allan & Co for generously providing each resident with sweet little chocolate bags to enjoy tomorrow. Your kindness is truly appreciated 🍫💝
