Theres a new rhythm in the village and it's bringing plenty of toe-tapping energy with it! 🤠 Yesterday we launched our brand-new line dancing class and the response has been incredible. With approximately 45 residents already signed up, everyone is eager to hit the floor learn the steps and share plenty of laughs along the way. We have a professional instructor leading the classes, ensuring residents not only learn proper technique but also build confidence in a fun, supportive environment. Line dancing is a fantastic way to stay active, improve balance and coordination and most importantly, connect with others.

🐶 Our brand-new dog park has quickly become a favourite spot for our four-legged friends and their humans too! Every afternoon a handful of our residents gather here, letting their dogs play, explore and make new furry friends.
It's wonderful to see not just the dogs enjoying themselves, but also our residents connecting and socialising in such a relaxed and fun environment. Whether its wagging tails, friendly chats , or a bit of fetch, there's always something heartwarming happening here.
If you haven't visited yet, come by, you don't need to have a dog to join in with the fun.

We were spoiled once again this year by our wonderful on-site hairdresser, Lorrae, who put on the most beautiful Christmas spread for our residents and staff. From gourmet sandwiches, all types of nibbles, chocolates and cakes and so much more - everything was thoughtfully prepared and absolutely stunning.

Lorrae generously did this with the help of her lovely daughter and her daughter's friend. Lorrae has been doing this now for many years and it is something our residents truly look forward to and love. Everything she does is always so special and this was no exception.

A heartfelt thankyou to Lorrae and the girls for once again making it another special day at Brookland.

We were very lucky to welcome the Sunflower Dance Troupe to our village for a wonderful performance on Tuesday last week. The dancers wore the most beautiful, colourful costumes and treated our residents to a mix of fun, energetic dances along with some lovely singing numbers. There was plenty of laughter, smiles and toe-tapping throughout the performance and our residents really enjoyed themselves.

A very big thank you to the Sunflower Dance Troupe for generously performing free of charge and bringing so much happiness and sunshine into our day.

We were abosolutely delighted to welcome the Robertson State School Choir last week to Brookland. With 55 talented students and their teachers, they filled our village with Christmas cheer. With a mix of fun, upbeat songs and much loved traditional carols, accompanied by the talented string performances played by the students.

Our residents loved every minute, singing along and soaking up the festive spirit. This is a visit we all look forward to each year and we are so grateful to the school for taking the time to share their talents and joy with us.

What a wonderful day we had at Brookland Village with the Christmas Craft Markets!. We loved seeing so many of our talented residents and their grandchildren setting up beautiful stalls, alongside some fantastic local stallholders.

There was an amazing variety of stalls with everything from Christmas decorations and handmade cards to jars of pickles and lots of other gifts and market treasures. The village was buzzing with residents browsing, chatting and snapping up some gorgeous Christmas presents.

Thank you to everyone who helped make the day such a great success - stallholders, visitors and residents alike.

We were thrilled to welcome the Mount Gravatt Men's shed Band to our village last week! The band treated our residents to a fantastic performance of around 20 songs to sing along to. With their guitars and an arrangement of songs such as "King of the Road", "Blueberry Hill" and "Country Roads", the residents had a wonderful time tapping along and singing along to the music. A huge thank you to the band for sharing their time and talent with us. It was a wonderful afternoon full of music smiles and community spirit. 🎸 🎸
