Residents at Inglefield Care Home embraced the spirit of Chinese New Year with a vibrant day of celebrations, delicious food, and a very special visit from a Chinese dragon!
The festivities began with a morning of creativity as residents crafted colourful decorations to bring good luck and prosperity for the year ahead. Red lanterns, intricate paper designs, and symbolic ornaments filled the home, adding a festive atmosphere that set the tone for the day.
The highlight of the celebration was the arrival of a Chinese dragon, bringing excitement, movement, and joy to residents and staff alike. The traditional symbol of strength and good fortune made its way through the home, spreading smiles and laughter.
Of course, no Chinese New Year celebration would be complete without a feast of authentic flavours! Residents enjoyed a selection of delicious Chinese dishes, which went down an absolute treat. The meal sparked plenty of conversation, with many reminiscing about their own experiences of Chinese cuisine over the years.
