25.01.2022 Happy Hour on Friday had an Oktoberfest twist, I think the residents of Banksia might have had a good time!

24.01.2022 Last week, the winners of this year's footy tipping competition were announced in line with the Grand Final. Congratulations to Geoff for taking out the overall first prize and all other residents that placed (including Ruby who won the wooden spoon award! )

24.01.2022 This afternoon we ventured on our first bus trips since lockdown! To say everyone was excited would be a huge understatement. Groups of four residents from one house at a time went on a drive around town checking out the sites and sounds. Make sure you give us a wave the next time you see the Yallambee bus rolling around town

21.01.2022 Today residents and staff that opted to have their COVID vaccination back in mid-April had their second dose! That's a total of approximately 100 residents and staff that are now fully vaccinated Staff that had the shot today are reminded that they will need to arrange their own influenza vaccination before the end of the month, reimbursement to be provided by Yallambee so please keep a record of your payment.

21.01.2022 Thursday the 19th of November much loved resident Avice Marsh celebrated an amazing milestone, her 100th birthday! We we're lucky enough to be able to celebrate the occasion in partnership with ABC Melbourne, with whom Avice has been a regular caller over the last few months and has grown her own following of devoted listeners. Please join us in wishing Avice the happiest of birthdays!

21.01.2022 You might have noticed some new faces around the gardens lately...... we have four new chickens! Yesterday residents voted and officially named them: Sheila, Fluffy, Henny Penny & Libby. Welcome to the family!

20.01.2022 Progress Update: The Yallambee Resident 'Quilt' is coming together and we think it's looking great! All residents have been invited to put together a square over the last few weeks and these are being combined into the one beautiful display. We have some talented residents on our hands!

18.01.2022 On Friday afternoon we celebrated a very special occasion - Avice Marsh's 100th Birthday! It was a wonderful afternoon spent together with friends both new and old. Unfortunately Avice's letter from the Queen got stuck in the UK post and was only received today - but scroll through to the last picture to see how happy she was to receive it.

17.01.2022 Throwing it back to earlier last week when we celebrated Pink Lady Day together with Bakers Delight Traralgon . The day was celebrated by residents and staff alike and was aimed at starting the conversation around the need for screening & early detection. With a number of breast cancer survivors across our Yallambee community, the day touched many.

16.01.2022 Have you ever thought about volunteering? Now could be the perfect time We're currently on the lookout for some new volunteers to join our wonderful team. Specifically we are after: - Gardening volunteers for one to one outdoor visits within our garden. ... - A footy tipping volunteer to take weekly tips from our residents and maintain the tally board - Additional 'Friendship Visiting Program' volunteers that are able to visit one or more residents for a chat on a weekly or fortnightly basis. If you are potentially interested in joining our team, please send an email to [email protected]. Alternatively, please contact Reception on (03) 5132 3500 and we can book in a time for a telephone conversation. We are always on the lookout for more musical entertainers too, so please don't hesitate to get in touch if you're interested in coming in to entertain our residents. All volunteers are required to successfully complete a police check and attend training before they are able to commence.

16.01.2022 Yesterday we held our Margery Cole Remembrance Day Service. It was an honour to have resident Roy Guenther, at the amazing age of 102, be a part of the day.

15.01.2022 Today marked the first Happy Hour down at the Atrium pool table for Pink Zone residents in quite some time. It was such a a hoot the festivities could be heard from the front foyer!

09.01.2022 What a beautiful sunny day it was yesterday for the Melbourne Cup! We celebrated in-house with our very own 'Fashions on the Field' competition and sweep stakes. We all had a ball and think everyone looked fabulous!

05.01.2022 On Monday you may have noticed Margery Cole was decorated to the brim with rainbow items. This was in support of 'IDAHOBIT Day' - International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Interphobia & Transphobia (IDAHOBIT) celebrates LGBTQIA+ people globally, and raises awareness for the work still needed to combat discrimination. Yallambee are very proud to support our staff and residents that identify as LGBTQIA+ and take a strong stance against discrimination in our home/workplace.

04.01.2022 Today we saw the 'Little Shop' return back to prime position in the CBD. We were swarmed with residents wanting to pick up some treats for themselves as well as Christmas gifts for their visitors. Christmas begins December 1 at Yallambee
