Long term care that feels like home. Sherbrooke is like any small village in Saskatchewan where everyday life goes on around us.

We are home to 263 Elders, 100 Community Day Program participants, 500 volunteers, families, friends, students, and over 500 staff. Ours is a community of people with normal aspirations, dreams and a desire to live life to the fullest. At Sherbrooke, Elders work, play, worship, paint, garden, volunteer. Come on in, browse around and visit with some of the people in our community. We have lots to tell you about our lives.

For the past five months, a Grade 12 Leadership class from Evan Hardy Collegiate has spent their Friday mornings at Sherbrooke!

These amazing students organized different activities with Elders throughout our community and came to know Elders through many conversations over coffee and tea. The students brought joy, spontaneity and friendship to Sherbrooke and we are grateful for what they have done for Elders.

Today was the final visit for the Leadership class, and we asked some of the students, as well as their teacher, Mr. Adam Peters, what this experience has been like for them.

We are so excited to be using a new version of the Java Music Program with Elders and Community Day Program participants!

The Java Circle program uses new themes and songs, as well as captivating photography and inspiring quotes to engage Elders and participants in meaningful ways.

Java Circle is being used throughout our Sherbrooke community, including today in the Community Day Program. We are grateful to the New Horizon for Seniors Program grant which enabled us to purchase Java Circle!

A blizzard and water main break forced Veterans Village to postpone its Christmas party last month, but there was no way residents, staff, families and volunteers were going to let these obstacles get in the way of celebrating the holiday season!

On Tuesday night, the Veterans Village community came together in the Tawaw Centre for a wonderful night of music, food, family, and friends. A big thank you to Adam Streisel, Brett Balon, and Gent Laird for sharing your musical talents with us, and to Madison McDonald and Regan Carmichael for preparing the delicious dainties!

We have five new foster kittens and cats at Sherbrooke as part of our friendship with S**T Street Cat Rescue. These five cats and kittens are part of a larger fostering initiative that includes Saskatoon's SOS Prairie Rescue and Mozart Sympawthy Animal Sanctuary in Mozart, Saskatchewan, to find homes for dozens of cats.

Our own Alison Fox shares the story of these five lovely cats and kittens and shares how you can make a difference in the lives of foster animals!

Thank you for watching and sharing this video, and please feel free to bring donations to Sherbrooke to help our five fosters thrive! Alison says the following items would be greatly appreciated:

- Iams Dry Kitten and Adult Indoor Food.
- Fancy Feast Wet Adult and Kitten Food.
- Unscented Clumping Clay Litter.

Every year, before we pack up our Christmas trees, we place them in the Tawaw Centre for some nerf gun deer hunting!

Residents have a great time trying to hit our staff who are dressed in their finest antlers.

Today, we clipped a microphone on Lois as she weaved her way around the maze of trees trying her best to avoid the nerf guns.

We think you will enjoy watching and listening to this video 😀
