Colourful fascinators, friendly faces and a touch of racing-day excitement were all part of Melbourne Cup Day at Alkira Lodge.
Residents came together on Tuesday, 3 November, to mark the occasion, enjoying refreshments, conversation and Melbourne Cup-themed activities.
There was plenty of colour throughout the day, with decorative headpieces adding a festive touch. Residents enjoyed spending time with friends, catching up over a cuppa and participating in table games.
For some, the day was an opportunity to join in the racing-themed activities, while others simply enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and spending time together.
Special occasions like Melbourne Cup Day provide opportunities for residents to socialise, share experiences and enjoy activities that bring people together.
Thank you to everyone who joined in and helped bring a little Cup Day spirit to Alkira Lodge.
