Another annual event in our Christmas calendar that we very much look forward to is the December fete.

Shopping can be an ordeal at this time of year but this occasion certainly took away the pain! Residents worked tirelessly to create gourmet goodies. We tucked into scones and cream in the dining room and there were craft items and other merchandise for sale.

In another seasonal touch, this year, Catherine our receptionist made no fewer than 19 hampers, which were raffled. Residents donated all contents and the proceeds of over $1,000 will be used for our social projects.
