Spring racing carnival is in full swing at Moyola!

Our residents have been getting into the carnival spirit with a wonderful line-up of themed activities. From creating beautiful Melbourne Cup table centrepieces and taking part in a special Cup Day photo shoot, to enjoying an exclusive viewing of the Cup in our activities room, there has been plenty of excitement along the way!

It’s been wonderful to see everyone getting involved, embracing the festivities and enjoying the fun of the season.

A scent of freshly baked scones!

Melissa and residents recently rolled up their sleeves to bake a fresh batch of scones for afternoon tea. Residents thoroughly enjoy cooking activities, bringing back memories and creating a homely feel in our facility.

Our modified lawn bowls is a great way for residents of varying mobility to join in exercise, and Joan and her fellow residents didn’t shy away from a bit of friendly competition – letting their competitive sides shine!

Many of our residents have been long-time bowlers, and it’s an accessible and meaningful way for them to continue doing what they know and love. Our Lifestyle team does a great job coordinating engaging exercises and making sure there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

Meet Carol – our cheeky, kind go-getter! Although Carol is relatively new to Moyola, she’s well known in the Tatura community for always lending a hand, including volunteering for the Tatura Bulldogs – a ‘doer’ her whole life.

– How long have you lived in Tatura?
A very long time, I would say around 50 plus years.

– If you could travel anywhere, where would you go?
I’ve done a lot of traveling, but I would go nowhere as I’m very happy where I am.

– What was your first job?
It was teaching.

– What is your favourite part of your day here?
I have a couple favourite things:
1. Attending group activities and being around everyone.
2. Alone time in my room reading.

Carol shared this about Moyola: “The people who live here and the staff are chums. The staff help us, and we help them. We need to be there for the staff to lean on, because so many of them are new to Australia. Everyone has a story to tell, and if you ask, they will tell you.”

Our staff recently completed Dementia Australia’s D-Esc workshop, an intensive three-hour, face-to-face training session combining classroom learning, group discussions, and immersive virtual reality (VR) scenarios.

We’re always looking to improve our care, quality, and safety while providing our staff with the confidence to support people living with dementia and their families.

Science Week, in August, saw our residents donning lab coats to create their own model volcanoes, conduct a skittle experiment, and take a food science quiz!

Hands-on experiences like these add variety to our Lifestyle Program, encourage cognitive function, spark curiosity, and provide rich sensory engagement. And our enthusiastic residents are always willing to try something new and fun – with plenty of smiles and laughter along the way.
