Today we had a wonderful time celebrating Chinese New Year! 🎉 Residents enjoyed a delicious selection of Chinese food and took part in a fun chopstick challenge, transferring items from one basket to another using chopsticks. There was lots of laughter, great teamwork, and plenty of smiles all around. A fantastic way to mark the occasion together!
Thank you to everyone who helped make today a success.

Our residents had a fantastic time today enjoying a fun and interactive bean bag game! 🎯🍏
Using this bright apple tree board, everyone took turns aiming for different point values — from 1 to 10 — adding a little friendly competition to the mix. There were cheers for the high scorers, lots of laughter, and plenty of encouragement all around!
Activities like this are not only fun but also help promote hand-eye coordination, focus, and social connection. Most importantly, they create joyful moments and lasting smiles. 💚
Well done to all who played — I’m already looking forward to the next game!

This morning was all about a little colour and a lot of smiles 💅✨
Residents enjoyed a relaxing nail-painting session, choosing their favourite shades, sharing stories, and enjoying some gentle pampering. Moments like these aren’t just about looking good—they’re about feeling cared for, confident, and connected 💖
A lovely, calm start to the day here at the Cheaney Court 🌸

Today we celebrated Western Monarch Day by taking part in several engaging activities. We worked on word searches, coloured pictures, looked through fact sheets to learn more about monarch butterflies, and created our own monarch butterfly drawings.

We had a lovely sensory box morning, giving residents the chance to guess what was inside the box without peeking! Using touch alone we explored a wide mix of shapes and textures – from a slithery snake and a bumpy pinecone to smooth dice, dominoes, a spoon, sunglasses, and even a squeaky rubber duck 🦆
There was plenty of laughter, concentration, and great conversation. Activities like this are a great way to stimulate the senses, encourage communication, and most importantly, have fun together 💛
A simple activity, but one that brought lots of smiles!

This morning we enjoyed a relaxing nail-painting session. From reds to soft pinks and a touch of sparkle, everyone chose a colour that felt just right.
Alongside the painting came laughter, shared stories, and plenty of compliments. It was a simple activity, but it brought confidence, connection, and a lovely sense of being pampered.
Fresh nails, happy hearts, and smiles that lasted all day ✨

We enjoyed celebrating National Polka Dot Day with polka dot colouring activities, a sing-along to Itsy Bitsy Teeny We**ie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini, and a fun hunt for polka dots around the home. Was a fun day all around.
