Today at Manorhey we have thoroughly enjoyed an afternoon tea gathering with a spread of mini sandwiches, cakes and pastries and tea in china ware. Residents enjoyed the Alice In Wonderland theme. 

To celebrate Chinese New Year, the year of the ox, residents gathered together for a Chinese food tasting. They tried different curries, including sweet and sour chicken, fried rice and noodle dishes. They also sampled our home made spring rolls which were said to be absolutely splendid. Not forgetting a little insight to our futures with a fortune cookie.

We are double celebrating pancake day at Abingdon Court this year!  The people living in the home got an early treat with the activities team who went around with their amazing pancake trolley full with a choice of toppings and it went down a treat.

One the day itself the kitchen made sure that pancakes were on the menu to be enjoyed by all.  How Yummy!

We all love a bit of Bingo here at Abingdon court and we have found one that has a little twist.  The bingo we found uses images as well as description which is more engaging for all. This week's theme was baking items and it started a wonderful flow of past memories which included stories of many delicious sounding cakes that the residents remember baking or their mothers baking for them. All participants enjoyed a winning chocolate to celebrate joining in. 

The people who live with us really enjoyed creating beautiful silhouette art, the bright colours and wonderfully textured feathers created a great sensory arts and crafts activity for all to enjoy.

Pancake Day was enjoyed by all at Ashmead on 16th of Feb. Particular interest was shown by Lumi, Home Manager, ensuring that the culinary quality matched the required standards, all our residents enjoyed their pancakes and we cannot wait for more!

Happy Birthday Pam! 

Our wonderful Kitchen Assistant Lisa loves making cakes for the residents birthday. 

We had a lovely pancake day at the home.  Staff and residents enjoyed lots of lovely toppings and the residents even had a turn at tossing their own pancakes.  We had such fun.

The residents enjoyed last week, plenty of different kinds of activities to celebrate St. Valentine's Day. We started last Monday when the residents enjoyed singing and dancing their favourite songs meanwhile trays with slices of cheese, tomatoes and cucumber were served with crisps, crackers and a selection of red and white wine. 

Next day was the turn of art and craft, the residents showed their artistic skills creating beautiful illustrations that were displayed all around the home.
