Chinese Day – Saturday 22nd May, 2021
This week we celebrated Chinese Day as residents and staff dressed in red – the traditional lucky colour in China. Residents were busy creating fantastic Chinese-themed crafts, including lanterns and the flag of China with which we beautifully decorated our home.
For lunch, residents were treated to a tasty menu, including, lemon chicken for starters, the main meal consisted of beef and ginger stir fry noodles with vegetable spring rolls, followed by warm egg custard tart for dessert.
In the afternoon, we enjoyed listening to traditional Chinese music as residents were excited to receive their fortune cookies with many of them having an inspirational message. The day was described as “Being wonderful and fun” and Residents are already looking forward to the next World Day!
Caribbean Day – Tuesday 4th May, 2021
We took a trip to the Caribbean as our home was decorated with colourful bunting, flamingos and flags.
Dressed in bright, funky clothing, residents and staff danced along to reggae music whilst sipping on tasty tropical fruit drinks.
Our chef prepared a special Caribbean lunch, including barbeque jerk chicken and coconut pineapple cheesecake.
Residents are already looking forward to their next visit to the beach!
