🍀 St Patrick’s Day - the luck of the Irish is alive and well

The shamrock spirit has taken over our community and what a fun time everyone has had!

🏡 At The Terrace, Retirement Village in Victoria, Anne one of our residents and ray of sunshine, has been on a one-woman mission to spread St Patrick's Day joy. With 21 years of residency under her belt, Anne knows exactly how to get a smile out of everyone she meets and today was no exception! Her wonderful sense of humour and warm, caring spirit had fellow residents chuckling all day long. We think Anna might just be the pot of gold at the end of our rainbow!

🏡 Residents at R M Begg in Kyneton marked the occasion with a lovely lunch followed by a delicious high tea. It was a wonderful chance to come together, share good food and enjoy time with friends.

🏡 Residents at Costa House also in Victoria, decked themselves in green to celebrate the occasion. Nancy and Lesley had a grand time – to be sure to be sure!

🏡 Glenella Care in Queensland celebrated with lots of green, laughs, Irish poems, Leprechaun Roll, Peppermint Chocolate Cup cakes, gold coin chocolate and plenty of fun.

🏡 Over in New South Wales, Autumn Lodge had a fun-filled day enjoyed by all! Residents got stuck into a St Patrick's Day floor game that was a real crowd favourite, and the excitement only grew when a very special Leprechaun made a surprise visit! The afternoon was rounded out beautifully with local music artist Gordon, who treated everyone to a wonderful selection of Irish music. A day full of laughter, music, and celebration!

🏡 Everyone at Riverside Gardens had a brilliant afternoon celebrating the day with Kathryn from 'Big Sing'. Residents wore their green with pride, and enjoyed singing along to the tunes.

And over in Tasmania, the shamrock spirit was felt across our community...

🏡 At Wellington Views, residents were all in on the green theme - morning tea was a hit with green cupcakes, mint slice, emerald green drinks, and some outstanding dress-ups. The only disappointment of the day? No pot of gold was found at the end of the rainbow - but the hunt continues...

🏡 At Mt St Vincent, it's fair to say the Irish spirit runs deep! With plenty of Irish residents proudly celebrating their heritage, the day was filled with toe-tapping fun, green icing cupcakes, green jelly cups, and wonderful live entertainment from Annie and the gang, who kept everyone moving with the best of Irish music.

🏡 Eliza Purton Home hosted a Bocce tournament - their yearly tradition of playing with potatoes! 🥔Carpet bowls with a St Paddy’s twist had everyone laughing and getting into the spirit.
The team also tried their luck with a 'Lucky Envelope' game to see who really had the luck of the Irish, and there were some very happy prize winners.

🏡 And rounding out our Tasmanian celebrations, Derwent Views got into the St Patrick's Day spirit with fabulous staff dress-ups and Irish music setting the perfect festive tone for the day.

Happy St. Patrick's Day from all of us at Respect. May your day be filled with laughter, good cheer, and maybe a sprinkle of gold. 🌈

Residents and staff at Cooinda celebrated Holi with a morning full of colour and music. Staff made their own coloured powder to share the traditional greetings of “Happy Holi,” with a few ending up with very brightly coloured hair!

Residents also explored the history of the festival online before enjoying music, dancing and plenty of fun together. A very fun and memorable celebration for everyone involved. 🎨💃

Seniors Week 2026 (2–15 March) is the largest celebration for people over 60, and this year, our communities lived the theme - Live Life in Colour 🎨

🏡 Generations connect in Bowraville

Residents from Autumn Lodge (Macksville, NSW) were invited to a Seniors Week outing in the nearby town of Bowraville. Partnering with the local high school and the Youth Council Support Group, the event brought together our residents and students for a morning of lawn bowls, laughter and genuine connection.

The students served morning tea and lunch to our residents, and then afterwards, a colour run had everyone cheering, including one of our own residents who jumped right in! So much fun.

A big thank you to team at the Youth Council Support Group, and to the students who made the day so memorable.

🏡 A colourful morning tea

Cooinda (Lithgow, NSW) marked the NSW Seniors Festival with a beautiful morning tea, bringing together residents, family members, staff and the Cooinda Auxiliary. Resident Norma and Auxiliary member Lynn cut the cake together to a round of cheers from the room.

True to the "Live Life in Colour" theme, residents arrived in their brightest and boldest outfits, embracing the message that senior years are a time for creativity, new connections and active living.

Autumn may be here, but the last of Tassie’s summer warmth is still lingering at Mt St Vincent, and our residents are making the most of it. ☀

With the BBQ fired up and the sun shining, it’s the perfect excuse to head outdoors, enjoy a relaxed meal and spend time socialising together. Fresh air, good food and great company 😊

13/03/2026

Loads of fun going on lately at Wellington Views... The men recently tried their hand at LEGO and quickly discovered they were quite the master builders!

Residents also enjoyed a recent BBQ and concert, with plenty of laughs, smiles and some fine moves along to the music. A great afternoon filled with good company and good tunes.

The town of Heywood, which is about 20 mins from Bayview Haven in Portland, hosts its annual Wood, Wine & Roses festival. The region comes together for a day of music, market stalls and entertainment, beginning with a street parade.

Bayview Haven has proudly taken part in the parade for the past seven years. Residents love watching the other entrants before it’s their turn to join in.

It’s a wonderful opportunity for residents to stay connected with the local community, with plenty of waving to cheering crowds as they cruise down the main street. 😊

There’s been plenty happening at Coroneagh Park lately... Residents have been enjoying St Patrick’s Day themed activities including maze puzzles and word games, along with a rowdy sing-along with Josh and a fun ukulele show.

A trio bike ride to Connect Café was a lovely outing, and a visit from children at Susie’s Day Care brought lots of smiles. Residents, staff and visitors have also been enjoying games of Tri-Ominos and the ever-popular basketball pong. Never a dull moment here!

10/03/2026

Residents at Coates have been making the most of the fresh air and sunshine with a recent outing to the park. The trip was a lovely chance to get out and about, enjoy the surroundings, feed the ducks and spend some quality time together.

Back at the home, residents have also been enjoying painting and theme days. Craft activities are always a favourite at Coates. Great work everyone 🎨

Cooinda Celebrates International Women’s Day ✨

Residents and staff at Cooinda came together for a special morning tea to mark International Women’s Day, sharing a relaxed and meaningful day reflecting on the incredible women who shape our lives.

The get-together was a great opportunity to celebrate the many women connected to our lovely community here at Cooinda – our residents, family members, volunteers, community members and staff.

General Manager, Hannah Dinn, said: "Today, we celebrated the incredible women who make a difference every day – our residents, our staff, and our community. At Cooinda, we are so proud to honour and support women in every role, from caregivers and nurses to administrators and volunteers. Their resilience, and leadership inspire us every day. Happy International Women’s Day!"

International Women’s Day is a reminder to recognise the strength, kindness and contributions of women across generations. At Cooinda, the morning was a beautiful way to honour those women and the role they play in making our community such a warm and supportive place to be.

Happy International Women's Day from all of us at Respect!

This year's theme is Give to Gain and we couldn't think of a better way to describe the women across our organisation. Around 80% of our workforce is women, and the care, heart and dedication they bring every single day is what makes Respect the community it is.

To our staff, our residents, our clients and every woman in our extended Respect family - today and every day, we see you and we value you.

💭 At Lyrebird Village, we asked some of our team members a simple question: “What moments in your work feel most meaningful to you?”

Their answers weren’t about big achievements, they were about connection, and being present. These reflections offer a glimpse into the purpose that drives our people each day...

05/03/2026

The annual Eliza Purton Home fishing trip to Natone Hills Fly Fishery is one event our residents circle on the calendar every year, and they were counting down the days for the big event!

Residents and staff arrived with rods ready with the hopes of catching a big one, but the fish weren’t feeling so generous. That didn’t bother anyone. The ‘reel’ win was all the laughing going on, including the stories, and the pleasure of being outdoors together in such a beautiful spot.

A big thank you to the brilliant crew from the Ulverstone Men’s Shed for their support throughout the day. Volunteers make these trips possible and we greatly appreciate it. And to our wonderful hosts Ian and Christine, thank you for the warm welcome and hospitality.

Special mention to Elisha, who was the only one to land a fish… although there’s chat the fish may have caught her. Huge thanks to everyone who helped organise such a great day. Another memorable trip, and residents can’t wait for next year!

Our Story

More Than Just Care Respect is known for investing in the wellbeing of the elderly because we believe that dignity and respect are basic human rights. Our residential care homes can be found in nine communities across Australia.

We’ve been investing in the wellbeing of the elderly community for almost a century as St Ann’s, Island Care, Alcheringa and Cohuna. These four organisations across Tasmania and regional Victoria have now united, to be known simply as Respect Aged Care. We are a not-for-profit group that exists to benefit our residents, not shareholders. This means that all of our income goes back into providing high quality care to our residents.

As a not-for-profit aged care organisation Respect’s mission is to care for the elderly in our communities in an environment of respect, value and belonging. With modern facilities, supportive staff and comprehensive services, we now offer a superior level of care to more people across Tasmania and Victoria. Our first class aged care facilities can be found in the following locations:
