What began as a simple idea from residents Linda and Art Comely has grown into something remarkable at The Village of Wentworth Heights.

This year, the community garden blossomed into a space of purpose, connection, and leadership — a place where residents, families, and team members came together to nurture something bigger than the raised beds themselves.

With guidance from Horticultural Therapist Janine Robertson and the steady commitment of the garden club, the space became a sanctuary. Conversations flowed, stress eased, and pride flourished with every bloom and harvest.

As Schlegel Villages director of landscaping Adriaan Sizoo shared, the garden reflects the spirit of the Three Sisters: supporting, inspiring, and uplifting one another — growing better together.

What a fun Saturday afternoon on the Stonechurch neighbourhood! Even though the current outbreak means things look a little different this year, we’re still finding meaningful ways to celebrate the holiday season together.

A huge thank you to Carla Gonzalez for putting on such a wonderful and cheerful show — it truly brightened everyone’s day! And another big thank you to family member Lisa for capturing these special moments and sharing the photos and videos with us.

Even in challenging times, joy finds its way.

Yesterday we watched something truly special unfold, a resident and a team member sitting side-by-side, swapping stories about their lives, passions, hobbies, fears, favourite memories, and even a few honest regrets. Their banter was effortless, their connection undeniable, and together they created a wholesome, heartfelt presentation that left everyone smiling. Moments like these remind us why community matters so much.

On Friday, we had the honour of celebrating a remarkable milestone — Souham’s retirement after more than 24 years in long-term care. She is one of our original team members!

From the very beginning, Souham has been a steady, positive presence in our Village. As one of our housekeepers, she brought warmth, and genuine care into every room she entered. Her dedication has shaped the experience of countless residents over the years.

As she steps into this new chapter, we hope her days are filled with family, relaxation, and all the joy she so freely shared with others.

Thank you, Souham, for your extraordinary commitment and the legacy of kindness you leave behind. You’ll always be part of our Village family.

Please join us in wishing her a heartfelt congratulations and a very happy retirement!

This morning, the Village came together to honour the brave men and women who have served — and continue to serve — our country. We reflected, remembered, and gave thanks for their courage and sacrifice.

At the 11th hour, on the 11th day, of the 11th month, we paused in silence to remember.

“A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself.” – Joseph Campbell

Lest we forget.

From all of us at The Village of Wentworth Heights, we remember.
