The month that was: June

With winter well and truly arriving in Sydney, residents still enjoyed trips out to see the Vivid lights, Coogee Beach, and Sydney Rowing Club. We also celebrated National Dieticians Week and looking after our wellbeing. Take a look back at the month that was June. 

 

 

Winter outings

Woollahra residents got their steps in this month, with trips out to see Sydney’s spectacular Vivid festival, taking in the fabulous light displays that lit up the Harbourside, Coogee, where they went for a brisk but sunny walk along the beach before enjoying coffee and cake at the Pavilion, and a delicious (and warm!) lunch at Sydney Rowing Club.

 

   

 

 

 

   

   

 

 

A quiz for a King

Woollahra residents donned their nicest crowns and took part in a fun quiz for the King’s Birthday holiday. 

 

 

 

 

 

National Dieticians Week

This month we celebrated National Dieticians Week. With this year’s theme focusing on ‘Your health, our mission: Talk to a dietitian,’ we highlighted the important work of Montefiore’s Dietitians.

 

Valerie, Kat, Sophia, Eleanor, Michelle, and Zahra work across all three campuses to provide every resident with tailored dietary recommendations to meet important nutritional goals. They are strongly involved with education regarding nutrition and collaborate with the Montefiore Catering team on menu development. Every day, they play a crucial role in supporting the health and wellbeing of our residents.
