WEDNESDAYS - 2.00PM - CRAFT
We have a lovely group of residents that keep their hands very busy churning out lots of craft items for charity organisations. "Kaleidoscope" is one of the major organisations that the craft group support. This organisation provides craft items to children and adults in hospital along with families and children in need of support. They also sell items at stalls to raise funds for much needed equipment in hospitals and emergency transport. Our craft group have received a "Certificate of Appreciation" from Kaleidoscope for their valued efforts.
WEDNESDAYS 7.00PM - TRIVIA AT THE WORKERS CLUB
In the afternoon our residents stroll down from the village to the Wangi District Workers Club, where they participate in the Trivia Night as the "Village People". They do not wear the outfits or burst out in macho song, but they do let out a big cheer when they win! Whether you’re a trivia guru or a novice, you are sure to enjoy the social gathering and have a great night.
