Egg-citing Times: Easter Festivities at Rowan Park

Easter weekend at Rowan Park Care Home was a festive affair filled with joy, laughter, and community spirit. Residents, staff, and members of the local community came together to partake in a variety of Easter-themed activities, creating cherished memories that will last a lifetime.

The weekend kicked off with residents and staff baking delicious Easter biscuits, filling the home with the sweet aroma of freshly baked treats. Whilst some of our other residents got creative with egg painting, unleashing their artistic talents to decorate eggs in vibrant colours and intricate designs.

The highlight of the weekend was undoubtedly the Easter egg hunt, where residents and visitors alike searched high and low for hidden treasures scattered throughout the home's grounds. The Easter Bunny even made a special appearance, delighting everyone with chocolate eggs and goodies.

But the festivities didn't stop there. Face painting brought out the inner child in everyone, as residents and staff adorned their faces with whimsical designs and colourful patterns. Laughter echoed through the halls as old friends and new acquaintances came together to celebrate the joyous occasion.

What made this Easter celebration truly special was the involvement of the community. Children from the local area joined in the fun, eagerly interacting with residents and staff, and experiencing firsthand the warmth and love that fills Rowan Park Care Home. Intergenerational interaction is so important within the care home, as these activities build on the strengths that different generations have to offer, as well as nurture understanding, respect, and challenge ageism.
