Last, but not least unfortunately we are no longer able to offer the option of providing transport and a carer to escort the residents to external appointments. While this has always been the responsibility of the families of the residents we have tried to assist as much as we can but sadly this can no longer be sustained. As with the vast majority of other aged care providers, we can only offer the option of an External Nursing Agency to provide a carer as an escort in a taxi to the appointments.

The History of the Melbourne Cup

In January 1788, the First Fleet landed at Port Jackson carrying convicts, other cargo, and a stallion, four mares, a colt and a filly. This was no Noah's ark, but from these sea-sick beasts began the horse history of Australia. In Melbourne settlers set up residence around 1835, and without further ado went about preparing a track to resume their favourite horse racing which was rudely interrupted by a voyage across the seas. Bullock carts served as grandstands and the winning post was marked by a coat stand. Bottles of rum were the prevalent currency for bets. The event probably grew too big for the bullock cart and soon the venue was shifted to Fleming Town on the banks of the Maribyrnong River, named after a local butcher, Bob Fleming. A three day event held in March, 1840 marked the beginning of official horse racing history in Melbourne. Minor clubs ran the show till in 1861, The Victoria Turf Club took over and held the first Melbourne Cup on Thursday 7th November. This historic race was run by seventeen horses and the lucky horse to go down in history as the winner was Archer, who legend has it, had to walk all the way from Nowra in NSW to participate. His efforts were amply rewarded by a hand-crafted gold watch and £170 prize money. This probably proved incentive enough, and he went on to win again the next year. Later in 1864, the Victoria Turf Club and the Victoria Jockey Club merged to the Victoria Racing Club which then took charge of proceedings, and it has been so ever since. In 1871, the Victoria Racing Club Act was passed and this granted the VRC legal rights over the Flemington Racecourse. Under the VRC, the sport grew from strength to strength, shed its parochial image, and became widely popular. This led to the Cup day being declared a half day holiday in 1865. By 1877 the whole day was declared a holiday and the crowds thronged the Flemington race course. It was in 1875 that the Cup was held on the first Tuesday of November and adopted the four day format, which eventually evolved into the Carnival we now enjoy. By all accounts the Cup was growing into a major event which was starting to grab attention and create frenzy locally and overseas. Since 1972, the distance to be covered was changed to 3200 metres to adhere to the metric system, from the original distance of 2 miles which is roughly about 3218 metres. A few records, such as the one made by Rain Lover had to be adjusted to suit the new distance. The best timing was recorded by Kingston Rule in the 1990 Cup Day, when he clocked 3:16:3, a record that remains unbroken. He is not to be confused with Kingston Town who is known as the champ of the eighties. Though the Cup Day has been held since 1861 every year without fail, a trophy was handed over to the winner only in 1865. This was in the form of a miniature horse and rider atop a silver bowl with decorative handles. In 1876, the first gold cup was awarded and it was made in Victoria and not from England as was the custom until then. In 1888, the trophy again reverted to silver, this time three silver horses on a silver base. The next year, it was someone's idea of a joke in the form of a silver tea and coffee service, which reportedly, the winner didn't think was funny. 1899 saw the presenting of a plaque with an embossing of a silver horse. From 1915 till 1918, a large rose bowl was used as a trophy. And finally in 1919 was introduced the trophy that we now know as the Melbourne Cup. From 1922-1960 trophies growing in value from £200 to £750 were presented. 1973 saw a cup worth $3000 which grew to $9000 by 1978. The dramatic growth in value continued with $23,000 in 1984 rising to $60,000 in 2001. And as of 2006 it was reported to be of $75,000 value. The prize money has risen from $1420 in 1861 to just over a whopping $5 million in 2006. And now the trophy as befitting a world class event is made up of 34 pieces of hand-beaten 18 carat gold. Not bad for a race that lasts about 3 minutes.

QUEEN ELIZABETH & PRINCE PHILLIP

CELEBRATING 70 YEARS OF MARRIAGE

Princess Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh are distant cousins who first met at a

wedding of Princess Marina of Greece and Denmark and Prince George, Duke of

Kent. They were reintroduced years later and started writing letters to one another.

The couple became secretly engaged in 1946 when Philip asked King George VI for

his daughter’s hand in marriage, but the formal announcement was delayed until

Elizabeth turned 21.

Before the marriage, Philip renounced his Greek

and Danish titles as required by the Act of

Settlement, 1701, converted from Greek

Orthodoxy to Anglicanism and adopted the style

"Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten", taking the

surname of his mother's British family. The day

before the wedding, King George bestowed the

style "His Royal Highness" and, on the morning of the

wedding, 20 November 1947, he was made

the Duke of Edinburgh, Earl of Merioneth,

and Baron Greenwich of Greenwich in the County

of London.

The couple were married on November 20, 1947, in

front of 2,000 guests at Westminster Abbey. The

bride wore a duchesse satin gown, designed by

Norman Hartnell, with star lily and orange blossom

motifs and encrusted with 10,000 pearls. Since

Britain was still in the midst of post–World War II

recovery, Princess Elizabeth even paid for her

dress’s fabric using ration coupons, and like Kate

Middleton after her, she did her own makeup on

her wedding day (royals, they’re just like us!). Right

before leaving Buckingham Palace for Westminster

Abbey, her tiara snapped. The court jeweler was

rushed to the princess via police escort and luckily

was able to make the necessary fixes just in time,

and the ceremony went off without a hitch.

The royal parties were brought in large carriage

processions, the first with The Queen and Princess

Margaret and later a procession with Queen Mary.

Philip left Kensington Palace with his best man,

the Marquess of Milford Haven. Princess Elizabeth

arrived at the Abbey with her father, King George,

in the Irish State Coach.

QUEEN ELIZABETH & PRINCE PHILLIP

While everything went smoothly, the event wasn’t without drama. Elizabeth’s uncle,

the Duke of Windsor (the royal formally known as Edward VIII), was not on the guest

list, largely because of his decision to abdicate and take up with twice-divorced

Wallis Simpson. His sister, Mary, Princess Royal, also skipped out, saying she was sick.

Her husband had died six months prior, but some speculate she was a no-show

because of her brother’s exclusion from the festivities.

Afterward, the newlyweds travelled by carriage to Buckingham Palace. Joining the

married couple on the balcony were King George VI and his wife, Queen Elizabeth,

who later became the Queen Mother; Elizabeth’s paternal grandmother, Queen

Mary; the bride’s younger sister, Princess Margaret; and Lady Mary Cambridge.

The service was broadcast to 200 million listeners on the radio, and thousands

gathered on the Mall and in front of Buckingham Palace in hope of catching a

glimpse of the newlyweds to wish them well.

Remembrance Day

Remembrance Day marks the anniversary of the resolution (end) of the First World

War (the Armistice) on 11 November, 1918.

The First World War

World War I (WWI) was originally known as the Great War. It began in August 1914

when Britain and Germany went to war. Many countries, such as Australia and New

Zealand (who formed the famous ANZACs), immediately declared their allegiance to

Britain and joined the war. This partnership was known as the ‘Allied Forces’.

The main nations in the Allied Forces were Britain, France and Russia. Later, they were

supported by countries such as Canada and the United States. The Allied Forces

fought the Central Powers: Germany, Austria-Hungary, Italy, and the Ottoman

Empire (Turkey).

During the four years of World War I, Australia was involved in some of history’s most

tragic conflicts (such as the famous landing at Gallipoli), and horrific battles on the

Western Front (France and Belgium) and in the Middle East.

The Armistice

In 1918, after suffering a number of defeats and heavy losses, the German forces

agreed to an armistice (a truce) with the Allied troops and this signalled the end of

WWI. The treaty was signed at 5am on 11 November 1918, but did not officially come

into effect until six hours later at 11am. The armistice was met by celebration around

the world; people yelled, cheered and danced in the streets.

For this reason, Remembrance Day was originally called Armistice Day. In Australia, it

was renamed in 1997. The name change broadened the meaning of the day,

widening the focus from World War I, to a day which commemorates those who

served in any war or conflict.

Remembrance Day traditions

A minute of silence

Every year, nations around the globe fall silent for one minute at 11am on the 11th

day of the 11th month to remember those who have served their country during war.

This practice stems from King George V’s declaration on 6 November 1919 that

people throughout the Commonwealth should suspend their normal activities so that

in “perfect stillness the thoughts of everyone may be concentrated on reverent

remembrance of the Glorious Dead”.

A red poppy

The Flanders poppy was one of the first plants to grow on the blood-soaked

battlefields of France and Belgium. In nineteenth century English poetry, poppies

often symbolised sleep or oblivion. After WWI, silk poppies were sold on Armistice Day

with proceeds going to a charity for French children and to the Returned Soldiers

League (RSL).

Remembrance Day

A sprig of rosemary

Many people wear a sprig of rosemary on Remembrance Day and on ANZAC Day.

Since ancient times this aromatic herb has been recognised as a sign of

remembrance and loyalty. For Australians, rosemary is even more significant as this

plant grows wild on the Gallipoli peninsula, serving as another reminder of the ANZAC

troops who lost their lives there.

A flag at half-mast

On Remembrance Day, flags are flown at half-mast from 10.30am to 11.03am as a

sign of mourning and respect. It is said that this tradition stems from sailing ships that

lowered their sails at sea to honour an important person or mark a death.

There are a number of rules associated with flying the Australian flag at half-mast. The

flag can never be flown at half-mast at night. If in a group of flags, all flags should be

lowered to half-mast, however, Australia’s should be lowered last and raised first.

Remembrance Day fast facts

• The word ‘armistice’ means a truce or peace arrangement. It comes from the Latin

word ‘arma’, meaning arms and ‘stitium’, meaning ‘a stopping’, giving us the

meaning: to put down your arms (weapons).

• The famous poem In Flanders Fields that made the red poppy such an iconic

symbol, was written by Canadian Lieutenant Colonel John McRae. It is said that it

only took him 20 minutes to write and that afterwards he threw it in the trash (from

which it was thankfully saved by a fellow soldier).

• It was not just men who went to war. In World War I, many Australian women

volunteered as cooks, drivers, interpreters and other skilled positions. Female nurses

served in countries such as Egypt, France and Greece, often in dangerous

conditions, close to the frontline where they were exposed to shelling.

• World War I was the first armed conflict where aircraft were used. There were

around 3000 Australian airmen who served with the Australian Flying Corps.

• The conditions in WWI trenches were so horrifying that they gave their name to

numerous ailments that occurred there. These include: ‘Trench Foot’ (a fungal foot

infection), ‘Trench Nephritis’ (an inflammation of the kidneys) and ‘Trench Fever’ (a

painful infection caused by lice).

• It is estimated that the WWI trench system on the Western Front measured

approximately 475 miles (764km) in length.

• Rosemary is often worn on Remembrance Day. An old tale

describes the Virgin Mary spreading her blue cloak over a

flowering rosemary bush. The story says that the white flowers

turned blue and from that day on the bush was called the

‘Rose of Mary’.

• Many countries (such as Canada, the United Kingdom,

France, Belgium and Poland) also observe Remembrance

Day.

Celebrating 55 years of James Bond Films in 2017!!! The Life of Ian Fleming (1908-1964)

Born in 1908 as the son of Valentine Fleming, and the grandson of the wealthy Scottish banker Robert Fleming, Ian Lancaster Fleming grew up the member of a rare class of Englishmen for whom all options are open. The privilege of class and respect came not merely from his grandfather's money, as wealth alone in England does not guarantee open doors. The Fleming family earned their social stripes with service and blood. Ian's father was a service-oriented land-owner in Oxfordshire and a member of Parliament. When Valentine Fleming died in the Great War, Ian was 8 days shy of his 9th birthday. Winston Churchill wrote the obituary for The Times.

Fleming's mother, Evelyn St. Croix Rose Fleming, inherited Valentine's large estate in trust, making her a very wealthy woman. The trust, though, cut her out should she ever re-marry. This provision virtually guaranteed that she would remain forever Valentine's widow, regardless of other loves or circumstances. These financial chains of Valentine Fleming's will set the stage for the high-stakes financial pressures which would always dog Ian Fleming's life.

Valentine's ghost lingered over Ian in many other ways. His father would always be the daring young hero, larger than life, articulate, straight as an arrow. In childhood prayers the Fleming children were instructed to pray to be as good as their father. For Ian, that charge proved too tall an order.

Fleming not only had to live with the ghost of his father, but also with the shadow of his brother Peter, who after his father's passing filled the role of patriarch of the family. Peter excelled at Eton and later Oxford.

The knowledge of Ian's late father's looming wealth, and Ian's lack of access to it was bound to make the young Fleming feel disinherited. The elusive Fleming fortune and high achievements of Valentine and Peter seem to have put a chip on Ian's shoulder. As Ian failed to fill their shoes, it appears he became more determined to build his own empire, create his own identity within the family, and be lauded for his own successes.

Ian won the athletic prize 2 years' running at Eton, but left before graduation over an incident involving a girl. It was an ignoble end to his Eton years, but at Eton he was always just Peter's younger brother and Valentine's son.

Fleming's career at the military academy Sandhurst proved just as undistinguished, and he left without taking an officer's commission. He complained in later years that he felt the continued mechanization of the army made the idea of a conventional military career unappealing. A mechanized army, though, is an army without heroes, or personality. And Fleming's streak of independence and apparent need to make his own identity did not fit well with conventional military conduct. Officially, though, Fleming left after being caught out after curfew. In due course, Fleming went to Europe to continue schooling. Fleming found a home in the small Austrian town of Kitzbuhel where his education changed drastically. In an environment totally unlike the strict and conventional campuses of Eton and Sandhurst, Fleming, under the tutelage of Forbes and Phyllis Dennis, finally found a place to create his own identity. At Kitzbuhel no other students knew Valentine Fleming, war hero, and many students did not know Peter Fleming, academic star (although Peter and Ian did visit the school together the previous summer). The students only knew Ian, rakish, handsome, cultured Etonian with a rapier wit and a certain cool lack of shyness with women.

HEIDEN HAPPENINGS Page 9 NOVEMBER 2017

The Life of Ian Fleming (1908-1964)

Forbes and Phyllis Dennis did know Peter and Ian very well, and immediately realized that Ian must be allowed to excel on his own and be in an environment where he did not compete for accolades with his brother Peter. Through their careful work, Ian finally had the chance to become his own person, and not just the black sheep brother of Peter and son of Valentine. While Fleming found his own identity at Kitzbuhel, he did not seem to find out what he wanted to do with his life. He wrote some short stories and some poems, but made no pretensions, it seems, about being an author. Eventually, Fleming set his sights on the foreign service exam, but to his grave disappointment did not make the grade. Nonetheless, Fleming had set a course for himself and worked hard to achieve his own goals. After the failure to join the Foreign Service, Fleming turned to his brother's profession. Following in his Peter's footsteps, Fleming became a journalist, joining Reuters. Fleming's greatest success in his brief Reuters career was the reporting he did on a spy trial in Russia. While Fleming did not scoop all of his competition, he did impress his fellow journalists. Ultimately, though, Ian was the "other Fleming" journalist, as his brother Peter hopped the globe writing colourful news from many distant and exotic locals. Beyond the family implications, Fleming also discovered just how little money journalists made. When Robert Fleming died in 1933 leaving no money to any of his grandchildren, Ian once again saw the financial Rubicon which he felt limited his life and future options. The vast family fortune was unavailable to Ian until his mother died or re-married, and both options seemed unlikely. Fleming made his decision, leaving journalism. In one of his few compromises, Fleming, capitalizing on the family name, joined a London banking firm which he hoped would make him rich. Banking never earned Fleming the fortune he sought, but it gave him independence. He took up residence in Belgravia at 22B Ebury Street where he entertained friends in a portion of the old converted temple where he lived. Ian had enough money to host dinner parties for his lose-knit group "Le Cercle gastronomique et des jeux de hasard". Fleming's love of the off-beat and simple elegance impressed his friends. High-stakes bridge games, elaborate meals and indifferent romances filled Fleming's off-work hours. Peter Fleming churned out books of true adventure stories while Ian casually purchased an important collection of scientific and political first editions. Peter could be the writer while Ian ate, drank, and loved his way through life. By 1939, it appears Fleming had become bored with the plodding day-to-day existence of a banker. The ups and downs of the stock market apparently did not provide enough intrigue for him. During his Reuters days, Fleming had made friends in the Foreign Office, and maintained them even as a banker. In 1939, Fleming oddly took on an assignment for the Times to return to the Soviet Union to report on a trade mission. It appears that Fleming, in fact, was all the time spying for the Foreign Office. In May of 1939, Fleming started a more formal attachment to the intelligence service, working with Naval Intelligence. Soon, he was full-time assistant to the director, taking the rank of Lieutenant, and later Commander. Fleming became the right-hand man to one of Britain's top spymasters, Admiral John Godfrey. The war was good to Fleming, tapping his imagination, forcing him to work within discipline. Fleming schemed, plotted, and carried out dangerous missions. From the famous Room 39 in the Admiralty building in London's Whitehall, Fleming tossed out a myriad of off-beat ideas on how to confuse, survey, and enrage the Germans.

The Life of Ian Fleming (1908-1964)

In a 1940 trip into a crumbling France, Fleming supervised the escape from Dieppe, juggling the security needs of his country against the crush of refugees seeking escape from the Nazi machine. With Fleming flair, he spent one of his last evening eating and drinking some of the best food in the country, and one of his last days coordinating the evacuation of King Zog of Albania.

The "Fleming flair" proved to be his greatest strength in Naval Intelligence. He dined at Scott's, White's, the Dorchester, plotted intelligence operations, many of which were absurd, and many of which proved ingenious. Yet, Fleming understood the business side of the war. He understood his practical job, and the tight constraints of man-power, money and supplies. He did not take his assignments lightly, always gravely aware of the real human risks involved.

The "Fleming flair" also proved valuable in one other aspect: writing. As assistant to Admiral Godfrey, Fleming wrote countless memos and reports. His style and elegant arguments, plus his seemingly limitless knowledge of his subjects made the usual dry missives a pleasure to read. Eventually, Fleming wrote memos to William "Wild Bill" Donovan on how to set up the OSS, forerunner to the CIA. For that bit of work, Fleming received a revolver engraved with the thanks: "For Special Services."

Fleming travelled as Admiral Godfrey's right hand, meeting J. Edgar Hoover in Washington and William Stephenson in New York. Fleming worked closely with the latter.

Deeper in the war, Fleming took charge of 30 Assault Unit, a group of specially trained commandos who were sent on specific intelligence missions. These missions often meant work behind the lines making sure the Germans did not have a chance to destroy their valuable files. The 30 AU proved to be a great success. Fleming packed them off on missions while he remained mostly desk-bound in London. Nonetheless, 30 AU was his group, and their successes were heaped on his shoulders.

During the last year of the war, Fleming travelled to Jamaica for a Naval conference. The trip, though brief, revealed the lush island to Fleming. Here there was no war, no rationing, no food shortages. Fruit lay rotting on the trees and fine rum flowed from the plantations. Fleming immediately began planning for his escape to paradise.

Every person plans to run off to some tropical isle, but few do. Real life, family, work, and monetary limitations get in the way. Ian Fleming let none of these considerations stop him. When his war was over, he would, with certainty, return to Jamaica, and not just as a tourist.

Fleming set to work. He purchased property, designed a house, and set about doing paradise right. The house, Goldeneye, was like Fleming's writing would prove to be: simple, direct, filled with panache, but never elegant, or opulent. There was no hot-water plumbing, no glass in the jalousied windows, no provision for air conditioning. Yet, the house quickly became one of the most envied on the north coast of Jamaica.

After the war, Fleming set down his schedule. The first week of January saw him leave England and travel to Jamaica. The first week of March saw his return. He accepted his job at Kemsley newspapers without compromise -- this portion of the year would be set aside for Jamaica or he would look elsewhere for employment. For 6 years Fleming travelled each winter to Jamaica, lounging in paradise, romancing women, chasing the sunset, but it was not until he faced the pressure of a married woman who was pregnant with his child did Fleming start the writer's journey which would change his life and popular culture forever.

The Life of Ian Fleming (1908-1964)

The married woman, Lady Anne Rothermere, had for years been having an affair with Ian, and now pregnant, the time had come for Fleming, at almost 44 years of age to act like a grown-up and marry. As Fleming waited in Jamaica for Anne's divorce to become final, he wrote the first draft of a novel, Casino Royale.

By this time, 1952, Ian Fleming's circle of friends included some of the top literary names in England. Fleming knew Noel Coward, Eric Ambler, Peter Quennell, Patrick Leigh Fermor, and Cyril Connolly, among others. Fleming had the charm and self-confidence to pick his friends, compartmentalize them, and the self-reliance to never depend on them.

Fleming's career as a writer deserves more examination than can be offered here, but suffice it to say, over the next 12 years, Ian Fleming transformed his elite existence, his arrogance, his style, and his acid wit into some of the greatest thrillers ever written. Fleming incurred the respect of authors as diverse as Raymond Chandler, Kingsley Amis, and Edith Sitwell. His fans included John, Jackie, and Bobby Kennedy, and his social circle included Prime Minister Anthony Eden, Evelyn Waugh, and Somerset Maugham.

Fleming filled out the 12 years of Bond with great adventure journalism. Even in stories which had little action or pay off, such as his short non-fiction book, The Diamond Smugglers , the "Fleming-flair" ensured exciting reading. He wrote the "Atticus" column for the Sunday Times, proving a wonderful conduit for inside intelligence information, and clever rebukes.

Regardless of book sales or family obligations, Fleming managed to live the life he wanted. As the years passed, his passion for golfing increased so he took more time with it. Fleming's long-term fascination with America grew, so he travelled there more often.

Ian Fleming's full life caught up with him through his heart. It may be that years of drinking and smoking took their toll, or that the butter-rich cooking Fleming loved was the culprit. Or maybe it was just genetics. Whatever the cause, Fleming's health declined in the late 1950s. This plus anxieties in the marriage increased Fleming's depression. With the success of Bond, the world came knocking at Fleming's door, and he had a harder time shutting those out that he did not want in his life.

Nonetheless, Fleming fought the losing battle of his weakening heart by throwing more fuel on the fire. He continued to drink and smoke, making some excuses but not many. He wrote books he wanted to read, and travelled the world with style and authority.

In 1964, Fleming suffered a severe debilitating chest cold, which combined with pleurisy, forcing a slow recovery. That summer his mother died, leaving behind her small fortune from Valentine Fleming's trust. By this time, Fleming had already earned his own fortune, created his own identity, and ruled his own literary empire. His doctors advised him he was too ill to attend his mother's service, but he went anyway.

Fleming tried to force his recovery, dictating letters in protest of his condition, as if by sheer will, Fleming could regain his health. In August went to St. Georges to meet with the golf committee. His heart failed him, and the night of August 11, Ian Fleming began to bleed to death from within. At 1 a.m. on August 12, 1964, Ian Fleming died at the age of 56. He is buried in Sevenhampton, near Swindon not too far from the Welsh border. His wife Anne died in 1981. Fleming's only child, Casper, died from a suicidal drug overdose in 1975. Both are buried beside Ian beneath a simple obelisk monument in the shadow of the local stone church.

Hello to all our residents, families, staff! During the month of November the following residents will be celebrating their birthdays: Phyllis Lynch, Beatriz Garcia, Jeanette Mellon, Joseph Hartley, Leonard Fordham and Evanilda Pena. Happy Birthday everyone!! It is wonderful to finally see the buds and flowers blossom which tell us that Spring really is here and warmer weather is approaching. The A-League season is also wrapping up and we will soon be sitting back to watch the grand finals. It has been a busy October month here at Heiden Park Lodge. We started with our 80’s theme party and Halloween celebrations. Both celebrations were in full swing! The facility was decorated according to each theme with the help of staff and residents. Staff and residents enjoyed dressing up for these celebrations and gave lots of smiles and good vibes. We also had another important celebration in October which was the Pink Ribbon Day. The courtyard area in the DSU was set up for this special day. The celebration began with a nice morning tea followed by a delicious BBQ lunch in which the residents assisted with the cooking. There was also plenty of music! Everybody enjoyed the nice and beautiful day. Thank you everyone for your kind donations. Next month we have the Melbourne Cup on Tuesday 7th of November and World Kindness Day on Monday 13th of November which will feature lots of live entertainment with a variety of delicious snacks for everyone to enjoy. Please remember that everyone is welcome to join us for any of our fun celebrations. Residents always benefit from a range of therapies but one of the most popular therapies at Heiden Park Lodge is music therapy. Music therapy is now included in our travel chair activity where we play different songs from different countries which gives residents a chance to enjoy simulated travel experiences. Residents have also been provided with many other tactile and sensory stimulation activities such as pet therapy and doll therapy. For the month of November, we will be hosting many activities such as Melbourne Cup celebration, birthday party, World Kindness Day and Hello Day. For each activity, we will be doing craft activities to decorate the facility with all the different themes and of course we will be dressing up for each occasion. For the Melbourne Cup, there will be sweeps on sale while for World Kindness Day there will be at least four special performances happening in the facility which we feel very lucky and excited about so please come and join us for this day. It will be amazing!! We have two special announcements for the month of November. On Wednesday 1st of November we will be having an auction day at 10.00am at the Main Wing foyer and Wednesday 6th of December will be our Christmas party. For catering purposes, please inform the receptionist if you will be joining us by no later than 17th November 2017. Warm Regards, Main Wing Activity Officers

DSU Wing Hello to all our residents, families, staff!

Welcome staff and residents to the month of NOVEMBER!

November is the last month of Spring and the weather has never felt any better. The

DSU garden has now begun to spring up, blossoming with beautiful colours.

In the DSU unit last month, we hosted an 80’s themed birthday party. All staff and

residents dressed up like it was the 80’s and enjoyed their time together with staff Ron

singing hits from the 80’s. Residents enjoyed all the entertainment that he had to offer

and this monthly birthday party was a great success!!

Last month, it was very unfortunate to lose one of our dearest residents in the DSU, Mr

Steve Lepedat. Steve was a very happy and joyful man who always greeted staff with

“Hello Lady or Hello Sir”. May you now Rest in Peace Mr Steve Lepedat.

Also last month, we celebrated Halloween with staff and residents dressing up in the

theme of Halloween. We also held a Pink Ribbon Day morning tea on the 25th of

October. All staff and residents wore PINK to honour those who have battled or are

currently battling breast cancer. All funds received were donated to the Breast

Cancer Foundation.

We will have another busy month in November. Heiden Parks’ activity officers will be

hosting Multicultural Day as due to unfortunate circumstances of the flu outbreak, we

were unable to host Multicultural Day in August. Multicultural Day will be hosted on the

13th of November instead. All are welcome to come watch or even volunteer to

perform and entertain us.

In the DSU there is always so much FUN and excitement. Staff and residents are always

in a good and happy mood, dancing away and singing. Residents and staff are

spending more time outdoors in the new and renovated garden now that the weather

is a lot warmer. Families and friends that visit are always so happy and joyful and the

residents enjoy all the activities that the staff have to offer. It’s always pleasure to be

working alongside everyone in the DSU.

Warm Regards,

DSU Wing Activity Officers

GOFF WING

Hello to all residents and families! Birthday greetings and best wishes to our resident Yuen Lam!! A very warm welcome to our new resident Mr Ha Tang and we hope Mr Tang enjoys living at Heiden Park Lodge. Last month, we celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival where we organised a moon cake party for the residents which featured a feast and moon cakes to enjoy. They all had a good time on that day. Many thanks to the residents for making all those lovely lanterns to decorate Goff wing. It was really lovely. Our new resident Mr Ha Tang found an interest in the Mahjong game. Although he does not quite know how to play at the moment, he is having fun with it. We will continue to have Tai Chi exercise, bus trips, pet therapy and Chinese singing. Just a friendly reminder to our residents that during cold and flu seasons, please keep yourselves warm and drink plenty of water, cover your mouth when coughing so that we can prevent the cold or flu virus from spreading. For family members and friends who do have the flu, please consider postponing your visit for the time being as a preventative measure. Your cooperation is very much appreciated. For further information about any other activities, please refer to this month's calendar. Best wishes to all until next time.

亲爱的居民,家人,亲朋好友们 :大家好!

首先祝我们这个月生日的Mrs.Yuen Lam生日快乐,健康顺利!

非常热烈欢迎我们的新居民Mr Ha Tang,希望他很快适应我们的海登养老院生活。

上个月我们庆祝了中秋佳节,举办了中秋派对,中秋午宴和分享中秋月饼。居民们非常高兴。非常感谢我

们的居民制作了许多精制的灯笼把我们的居住区装饰的非常漂亮。

我们的 新居民 Mr.Tang对麻将游戏发现了新的兴趣。虽然他从一开始就不是太了解如何玩麻将游戏,但

他乐在其中。

我们会继续我们的太极锻炼、外出、宠物疗法和中国粤剧活动。

友情提示:敬请居民们在冷天和流感流行期间 注意保暖,饮大量的水,咳时请用手遮住口以防止病菌传

播。居民的家人和朋友们如果你们染上流感,请延期拜访,以预防传染它人。谢谢合作。

其它活动,请参阅本期活动表。谢谢!
