• Father’s Day festivities

Residents at Riverview Gardens Aged Care Centre enjoyed a Father's Day visit from Shorty the pony!

Father’s Day festivities have been in full swing across Salvation Army Aged Care centres over the past week.

Residents at Riverview Gardens Aged Care Centre, 30km west of Brisbane, celebrated Father’s Day with a virtual trip to Texas, USA, complete with a very special guest, Shorty! Everyone loved getting to meet Shorty, the most adorable pony.

Father’s Day card making was the activity of the day for residents at Gill Mawinda.

The virtual trip included a Texan barbecue spread, a themed dress-up and a tribute show to some of country music’s iconic singers. Yeehaw!

Residents at Gill Waminda Aged Care Centre in Goulburn in the Southern Tablelands of NSW created some Father’s Day cards, sharing many stories and reminiscing about their childhoods along the way.
