A Culture of Care
April is a busy month at Abel Tasman Village. Easter is now upon us and before we know it, we’ll have Anzac Day and the King’s Birthday! Download our April Newsletter & Calendar here.
Meanwhile, of course there is also the Rembrandt club newsletter for April!
We’ve just finalised the ATV March newsletter for download. All the news that’s fit to print (those COVID vaccinations are getting closer and this month we all pretend to be Irish.
But of course for the Dutch and those who enjoy Dutch food and customs, there is always the Rembrandt Social Club and its March newsletter here.
Happy Valentine’s Day. Is it really February already? Time flies…
Here is the ATV February Newsletter, with all the news that’s fit to print. Messages from management, the activities calendar and lots of photos!
And also, here is the newsletter from the Rembrandt Club. Lots to enjoy wether you have a connection with the Low Lands or not…
Also, a quick reminder that we update the Visitors page regularly with all the information regarding visits to Abel Tasman Village. You can always find the page under the Contact Us menu!
Out with the old, in with the new… That was quite a year wasn’t it? Thankfully, our Activities department has the program for the first month of 2021. A year which is bound to be different!
Be sure to read messages from Sophia and Elizabett as well as last month’s reportage and activity schedule in our newletter. It’s all here!
The November newsletter is now online. A big month, with the Melbourne Cup festivitates and of course Remembrance Day on the 11th November. Download the newsletter here.
With the promise of an opening of our facility back up to visitors, this month’s Newsletter hints at many celebrations during the month. Be sure to download it now!
The lock-down continues but our ever resourceful activities department managed to fill another month’s calendar for September. The main event is Father’s Day, most probably celebrated in isolation…
So in any case, here is this month’s activities calendar.
Starring in our August Newsletter for one last time is Virginia Mills. She has been with us for 25 years and we’re finally letting her go! Thank you, Virginia.
Download the August Newsletter, not only to read a message from our General Manager about the unfortunate, but necessary lockdown of our facility, but also about our Home Care efforts and activities which we’ve got scheduled, no matter what happens in the outside world! And read the letter from the Dutch Consul General…
Oh yes, and don’t forget to forward your “thank you” message to staff to
( business.mgr@abeltasman.com.au ), in time for this Friday’s Employee Day (see earlier post). We rely on Abel Tasman Village staff to look after our elderly relatives. Send them a message that we appreciate their efforts…
The month of July will see the return to the Village of some activities, which for the safety of our residents had been put on hold due to COVID-19. Working within the health guidelines, we will be slowly welcoming back entertainers and volunteers to Abel Tasman and July will also see the return of Church services.
Home Care recipients are also welcome to attend the Village. I was pleased to see Mrs Gloria Short at our hair salon last week for her appointment!
Read the whole newsletter, including the agenda and birthday reports here!
Here is a copy of our June newsletter (download it here).
It incorporates Sophia’s weekly message, Home Care news , our activities programme and a look back to in pictures to last month’s activities.
May proved to be another busy month at Abel Tasman. Katja and her team have worked very hard in ensuring that recreational Activities continue to be carried out with the least amount of possible disruption.
Good to see news and photos from the team which provides our Home Care Program, including a couple of personal histories!
Sophia’s message in the newsletter covers recommendations regarding our food safety programme, particularly concerning “brought-in” food, as well as some important reminders regarding Village entry and exit. Please have read.
