This week at Sea Views Manor, residents enjoyed a very special visit from two adorable lambs – Chloe (3 months old) and Wynston (just 3 days old) lovingly brought in by Kently!

Chloe’s playful curiosity and Wynston’s sweet snuggles brought laughter, joy, and plenty of heartwarming memories. Residents shared stories of farm life and reminisced about their own experiences.

Moments like these remind us just how powerful pets can be, fostering emotional well-being, reducing stress, and sparking conversation and connection.

A big thank you to Kently at Sea Views Manor for making this magical visit possible. We can’t wait to see which furry (or woolly!) friends he introduces us too next! 🐑💙

The gents from Sea Views Manor recently enjoyed a fascinating day out at the Bellarine Police Station.

Residents were treated to a behind-the-scenes tour, where they learned about the station's daily operations, visited the uniform rooms, held a 5kg police vest, and – of course – experienced the highlight of the day: stepping inside the holding cells and trying out the handcuffs!

One of the most touching moments came from Lindsay, a resident, who proudly shared that his father, Donald Williams, was the first police constable at the Ocean Grove Police Station — a wonderful family legacy that added a rich layer of meaning to the visit.

A heartfelt thank you to the Bellarine Police team for their warm hospitality and for continuing to strengthen the bond between the residents and the wider community.
