Make new Friends But Keep The Old :One Is Like Silver The Other Like Gold
Update July 2010
We switched the venue of the singing to the main hall in January 2010, which involves getting to the hall and it does not seem to have dulled their enthusiasm.There are anything up to 35/40 residents turning up every Wed. arvo for an hours worth of singing.I kid you not you can visibly see and feel their spirits rising, it's wonderful. They love it, I love it
.~~Des here's a couple of pics from today July 14 2010
Most of the residents are aged over 80 and it's midwinter, look after oldies folks, they are very important
