🎨🧠🎯 What a fantastic few weeks we've had here at Chevington Lodge!πŸ‘πŸ’•

We kicked things off with a lovely visit from Niall before he headed back to school – always a joy to see him! πŸ‘¦πŸ“š

Our residents put their thinking caps on with an art quiz and art crossword, then got creative making their very own Green Men 🌿 and trying out portrait and landscape painting! πŸŽ¨πŸ–ΌοΈ

We also kept our brains buzzing with wordsearches and word games – lots of fun and laughter along the way! πŸ§ βœοΈπŸ˜„

🎯 A friendly game of darts and hoopla turned a little competitive (in the best way!) and brought out some hidden talents! πŸ’ͺ

🐾 One of the week’s highlights was a visit from Barbar the cat – such a sweet and well-behaved little guest! 🐱❀️

🌻 We’ve been enjoying some lovely walks in the garden, making the most of the fresh air and early autumn colours. Our sunflowers are coming along beautifully – growing taller each day and putting a big smile on everyone’s faces! 🌞🌿

πŸŽ‚ And of course, we ended on a high note by celebrating three birthdays – complete with delicious cakes and good cheer all around! Happy birthday from all of us at Chevington Lodge! πŸŽ‰πŸ°πŸŽˆ

What a wonderful week we've had! We've been soaking up the peaceful mornings with walks in the garden, admiring our flowers. πŸ’

​To get our bodies moving, we enjoyed a calm seated yoga session to stretch and focus on our breathing. πŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈ We also had some friendly competition with a cycle machine raceβ€”it was a close one! πŸš΄β€β™€οΈ

​Our minds were put to the test with a challenging word game, and we got creative thinking of words with the tricky letter 'X'! ✍️

​For a bit of adventure, we travelled virtually to Edinburgh Zoo to see what the animals were up to. πŸ… We also had a fun request for a big game of Snakes & Ladders! 🎲 And of course, we had a blast celebrating Notting Hill Carnival with incredible carnival headdresses.

A huge shout-out to our residents for their amazing creations! ✨

What a fantastic week we all had here, at Chevington Lodge!

πŸŽ‰ We started off by matching languages to their countries, which was a great way to get our brains working. 🧠 Then we got to celebrate Asian Heritage Month with some delicious homemade food brought in by one of our amazing staff members. πŸ˜‹

​We also had lots of birthday celebrations this month so far, complete with beautiful cakes and rousing renditions of "Happy Birthday!" πŸŽ‚ We love celebrating our residents!

​We kept our bodies moving with some arm exercises, catching and popping bubbles with our hands and soft rackets! 🫧 For our minds, we played some of our favourite word games. ✍️

We wrapped up the week with a sweet treat: yummy s'mores that went down a treat! πŸ”₯

A week full of joy and activity at Chevington Lodge!😊

We kicked things off with some little visitors who helped us pot and plant seeds in the garden. 🌱 We even spotted lots of wildlife! 🐦

We tested our speed and energy on the cycle machines to stay fit and active. πŸš΄β€β™€οΈ Our brains got a workout with a fun word game, and we loved the visit from a resident's great-granddaughter who shared stickers with everyone! ✨

We even found some time to relax with jigsaw puzzles. 🧩

What a wonderful week it's been!

What a way to finish the week! πŸŽ‰

Our summer garden party was in full swing, even if it did turn into a rather soggy affair! 🌧️

We made a dash for the lounge and dried off with some absolutely yummy food and a super exciting raffle! 🀩

We thank all our wonderful relatives, friends and visitors for continual support and great donations!

A HUGE thank you to Station 366 for the fantastic entertainment that kept our spirits high, and to the Bungay Area Lions for lending us their gazebo – it came in handy, even if only for a little while! πŸ˜‰

Despite the rain, it was a wonderful time filled with laughter and good company! We're already looking forward to the next one! 😊

We had such a fantastic start to the week! 🀩

Our residents got busy in the kitchen making some truly delicious Welsh cakes for tea πŸ˜‹, and we all had a great time testing our knowledge on all things British! πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§

Exercise was disguised as fun this week! We enjoyed popping bubbles 🫧, turning it into a hilarious and active challenge, and some of us even tested our strength with therabands. So much laughter! πŸ˜‚

A huge shout-out and Happy Birthday to one of our amazing residents! We celebrated with a yummy cake and lots of cheer. πŸ₯³
The competition was fierce at our games' tournament! Residents battled it out with darts 🎯, hoopla, and bean bag toss, all vying for the highest scores. So much talent in one room!

What a wonderful week creating memories. ✨
