Peninsula had a day full of fun and laughter with a dress up day. Staff, residents and even the construction workers joined in on the fun.
We were able to pick out the costumes for the day from the local costume shop. All staff put on a fashion parade for the residents to judge who they thought was the best dressed, the judging was very difficult as everyone looked great, however it was decided that Patricia Martin was the winner who was wearing a bat woman costume.
All participants received a certificate and we had a wonderful time providing a lot of laughter and uplifting surprise moments recognising our staff under the costumes. Another terrific initiative from all the gang at Beaumont Care Peninsula at 111 George Street Kippa-Ring.
Congratulations to the family members and residents and our construction crew for getting into the spirit of the day.
