A Day in the Life
... |
|
|
| |
|
Life's pretty busy as a
resident of Rockingham. There's lots to be involved in, so we
thought we'd give you a light-hearted overview of 'A Day in the Life' of a
resident. As you'll find out, there's not time for 'dilly dally' if
you're going to be involved! |
|
|
Wake up time and a
cup of tea made by our carers. Good
morning! Nothing like a walk before breakfast to
enjoy the beautiful weather here and breathe in
the fresh sea air. Breakfast time in the Dining
Room with music and the jovial staff to put a smile on our faces. |
 |
|
 |
No time for
dilly dally; collect the papers from the front
reception and have a yarn with the admin staff.
Then
it's off to do our exercises with Marina before
Morning Tea. |
|
|
There are plenty
of activities to participate in until lunch:
Hoy or Bingo, Craft, Indoor Bowls, reading or
walking along the beach. After lunch if you
need some quiet time there are plenty of arbours
to sit and reflect, or listen to the birds or a
quiet nap in the rooms. |
 |
|
 |
Austar provides a range of movies to watch
or documentary programs, with a movie night held monthly.
|
|
|
Afternoons:another
range of activities being held - it's cards today, but
there's always something to get
involved in. |
 |
|
 |
Today we
are off on an outing to Murray Falls.
Our bus regularly commutes
to the local shops for our shoppers.
|
|
|
The Canteen is open today so there's time
to stock up on those lollies for the great grandchildren when they visit. |
 |
|
|
Dinner in the
Dining Room is a time to catch up with other
residents on the happenings of the day. In the
evening I might write that email to my daughter in Melbourne and then
listen to music in the lounge. A game of canasta
is in progress and other residents are watching a movie:
its time for supper and then off to bed.
What a day! |
|
|
Tomorrow we can
look forward to lunch at Rockingham Café and Happy Hour. |
