Go for Gold: Our Clients Shine in 70s Style!
Our clients had a fantastic time participating in the Go for Gold activity, joining fellow residents from other care homes in a joyful celebration.
This year’s theme, Music Through the Decades: 40s to 80s, was a big hit—especially the vibrant sounds of the 70s, which our team proudly represented!
They brought the spirit of the decade to life with:

• ✨ Energetic dance moves
• 🎨 Handmade banners and creative badges
• 🕺 Lots of laughter, music, and movement

Everyone went home with medals, certificates, and wonderful memories.

What an incredible day it was!

Our monthly concert was enjoyed by everyone with lots of dancing and singing.

Our clients had a delightful time on their bus trip to Arbroath, soaking up the sunshine and treating themselves to some delicious ice cream.

✨ Our clients are truly thriving during arts and crafts sessions. It’s not about the end result—it’s about the joy of the journey. These creative moments give them space to express who they are, build confidence, and embrace their own creativity. Even spontaneous colouring has sparked laughter and a refreshing sense of freedom.

Sunny days were enjoyed by everyone at St. Columba’s. Our monthly concert was out in the garden again along with a delicious barbeque. Great fun was had by all.

With the really nice weather we were able to have our monthly concert outside along with a barbeque.

Hopefully this weather continues and we are able to enjoy a lot more sunny days in the garden!

On Tuesday 25th March we had an Indian Fest here at St. Columba’s.

Many of us were dressed in Kurta’s and Sari’s to make the experience even more memorable, with Indian dancing being displayed with us all trying to follow and join in.

We were then treated to delicious food made by our lovely Indian cooks for the day. On offer were various traditional dishes from starters to mains, side dishes and puddings.

Residents and staff said it was the best Indian food they had tasted.

 

The day was an amazing success, and we hope to have another one later in the year.

Spooktacular Fun! Our residents went all out for this years Halloween Competition. Everyone brought their A-game and spooky spirit and the best pumpkin won!

Congratulations to our winners and a big thank you to all residents and staff for making it a Halloween to remember.
