To celebrate Chinese New Year at Woodland Manor Care Home some of our residents beautifully and meticulously painted circular paper lanterns to display in our reception area. This day was certainly a colourful celebration. One of our residents, Jackie, is seen here painting a traditional Chinese blossom pattern on her lantern, which received so many compliments from visitors to our Chalfont St Peter home.
During the afternoon, we watched a YouTube video showing the festive mood across China ahead of Lunar New Year. As we learnt, it is also called the Spring Festival and is a treasured time for reunions with family and friends, which certainly spread warm feelings within our home.
