International Women's Day 2026 theme is 'Give To Gain' - When we give, we gain.

Give To Gain emphasises the power of reciprocity and support. When people, organisations, and communities give generously, opportunities and support for women increase. Giving is not a subtraction, it's intentional multiplication. When women thrive, we all rise.

Whether through donations, knowledge, resources, infrastructure, visibility, advocacy, education, training, mentoring, or time, contributing to women's advancement helps create a more supportive and interconnected world.

What will you Give to Gain gender equality?

March 3 is World Hearing Day. This year the theme is "hearing well at every age". It's a gentle reminder that looking after our hearing is part of looking after our overall health and wellbeing at every stage of life.

Today is the Lunar New Year! 🏮🏮🏮

Lunar New Year is celebrated across many cultures in Asia and around the world, marking the beginning of the new year based on the lunar calendar. While traditions vary, the occasion is widely associated with renewal, good fortune and fresh beginnings.

Red decorations, lanterns and fireworks are common features, representing luck, happiness and prosperity. 🏮🏮🏮

Each year is linked to an animal from the Chinese zodiac and this year is the Year of the Horse.

Lunar New Year is both a cultural celebration and a personal one - a moment to pause, reconnect and look forward with optimism, surrounded by family, tradition and community.

A message from Coolibah Care CEO, Amanda Crook.

As we come to the close of another year, I’ve found myself reflecting, both professionally and personally.

This year, Coolibah Care continued to grow, with our workforce reaching 274 employees. That growth reflects the trust our community places in us and the strength of the services we provide.

We also said farewell to some long-serving and much-loved colleagues and welcomed many new faces who are already becoming part of the Coolibah Care story.

Earlier this year, I reached a personal milestone, 30 years as a registered nurse. It gave me opprtunity to pause and reflect on how much has changed in nursing over that time… and how much hasn’t.

What has always mattered most to me still comes down to three simple but powerful principles and I see them lived every day at Coolibah Care:

- Delivering the best care we can, every single day
- Working as a team that supports and lifts one another
- Building genuine relationships with residents, clients, colleagues, and families

I feel incredibly privileged to be part of this organisation and this community.

As we wrap up the year, I want to say thank you to the Coolibah Care team for the kindness, resilience, humour, and unwavering commitment to those we care for. You truly are the heart of what we do.

Wishing everyone a safe and restful festive season.

Regards, Amanda
