The cold breezes that quietly swept over Perth bid farewell to Perth's hot summer as the long-awaited autumn finally arrived. Chung Wah Community Care (Chung Wah CC) has recently hosted the Autumn birthday celebration for our seniors with birthdays in March, April, and May. It was a beautiful celebration immersed in the festive vibe at the Balcatta and Willetton community hubs. Our staff and volunteers sang light-hearted birthday songs in multi-languages, wishing the seniors good health and longevity. While our guests enjoyed some delicious cakes.
At Chung Wah CC, we seek continuous improvement and constantly add new ideas and activities for our consumers. For example, to make the birthday celebrations more ceremonious, we sent out gorgeous invitation cards to our guests and invited them to bring harvests from their backyards and share their joy and experience in planting.
In fact, our quarterly birthday celebrations carry multiple meanings. In addition to the key agenda of the birthday celebration, the party also have other objectives to mark the milestones of the seniors in the past year, including the accomplishments of gardening and exercise lovers. Furthermore, group celebration and sharing their harvests with each other can enhance cohesiveness and community wellbeing, which are beneficial to maintain positive emotional and physical wellbeing for happier ageing.
What is the definition of happy and healthy ageing?
By joining their favourite activities, seniors stay physically active for a healthier body and mind at Evergreen College in the community hubs. We believe happy and healthy ageing allows seniors to rekindle their passions and interests. Moreover, through promoting the principles of self-improvement, lifelong learning and the courage to try new things, seniors are supported to maintain independence and a sense of belongings to enjoy their golden era.
Chung Wah has been servicing the WA community since 1909, dedicated to improving the quality of life of individuals from diverse backgrounds. Moreover, Chung Wah CC has over 35 years of professional care experience helping seniors and people with disability improve their wellbeing and better integrate into the community. In 2023, we're promoting our theme, Embrace, Elevate & Flourish, and build a better community for all.
