If there’s one thing we know for sure, it’s that light must always prevail even in the darkest times. We are committed to doing everything we can to bring happiness, warmth, and joy into the daily lives of our residents.

Yesterday, the wonderfully generous and wildly fun BarbieQ and her fellow Drag Queens donated their time and infectious energy to uplift the residents and bring much needed laughter.

It was a magnificent performance and such a heartwarming show of love and care for our residents from a group outside of our community. We are so grateful for their love and generosity.

Every smile matters. Every moment of connection counts. Together, we are making sure that at MZH, hope shines bright and love lights the way. 💛

Yesterday’s tragic events have left many in our community, both here in Perth and Sydney, as well as Jewish communities around the world, deeply shaken. At Maurice Zeffert Home, our hearts are with the victims, their families, and all who are grieving.

In moments of darkness, we are bound to remember the power of light. As we gather during Chanukah, we reflect on the miracle of resilience and the enduring flame of hope. Each mitzvah, each act of chesed, is a way of bringing light into the world, illuminating even the heaviest of times. This has been evidenced by the overwhelming messages of support and sympathy we have received from organisations that we work with who are not Jewish.

Our community has always been built on care, solidarity and light. May we continue to support one another, to stand together, and to let our light shine through mitzvot and love.

We hold the Sydney Jewish Community and all Jewish communities around the world close in our thoughts and prayers. May the light of Chanukah guide us toward healing and peace.

Please be reassured that there is security and police presence, and we will do everything required to keep our residents and staff safe. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the WA Police and CSG for their tireless efforts and vigilance in protecting our community and our precious residents.

On behalf of Maurice Zeffert, we extend our deepest sympathies and unwavering support to you and your loved ones during this difficult time.

Shabbat Shalom from all of us at Maurice Zeffert!
This week’s mood: dance like no one’s watching… and if they are, make ’em smile. Our resident superstar is reminding us to meet each day with a grin, a spin, and a sprinkle of chutzpah. May your Shabbat be full of light, laughter, and just enough mischief to keep things joyful. 💃✨

Today we had the absolute joy of welcoming the Little Legends Early Learning toddlers to Keren Or. The room was filled with laughter as they hit a giant ball back and forth with our residents, such a heartwarming sight. 💕

The fun didn’t stop there! Everyone enjoyed exploring our Mobii interactive unit, which brings smiles and engagement to our residents every single day. For our residents living with dementia, Mobii offers incredible benefits, including:
✅ Stimulating cognitive function
✅ Encouraging physical movement
✅ Boosting social interaction
✅ Reducing anxiety and agitation

Thank you to Little Legends for visiting and creating such special moments. These intergenerational connections truly brighten lives.

✨ Another resounding success! ✨

On Friday, our Carmel School Perth Western Australia Year 8 students joined residents for the second GenZ & OG meetup and once again, the hall was alive with conversation, laughter, and connection.

The students were engaging, respectful, and wonderfully polite, bringing joy to every interaction. From fun games to heartfelt chats, new friendships blossomed across generations. Residents delighted in sharing their stories, while students wrapped up by interviewing those they felt closest to, gathering priceless words of wisdom to carry forward.💙💙

Yesterday, we gathered for a special luncheon in honour of our Village residents. The room was filled with wonderful music, delicious food, lively conversations and the joy of friendship and connection.

It was a beautiful reminder of how much happiness comes from sharing meals, stories and laughter together.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the day so memorable.
