Celebrating Community & Connection at Olivet Care!
We're thrilled to officially announce the opening of our newly transformed Acacia Outdoor Games Courtyard!
Thanks to the incredible support and generosity of our community and the money they raised at least year's Spring Fair, this space has been completely revitalised for our residents, visiting families and school groups to enjoy together.
The celebrations kicked off with a special ribbon-cutting ceremony, surrounded by residents, board members, staff and enthusiastic students from the local Indie School. After opening the gathering in prayer, everyone enjoyed an morning of outdoor games in the new courtyard!
Courtyard Highlights:
💜 Freshly rendered walls and lush green hedge screening
💜 New outdoor furniture and family play equipment
💜 Hand-painted courtyard games, lovingly created by staff member Andrea Green
💜 A hand-sanded bench crafted with care by the Men’s Woodwork Group from our Juniper Household
💜 A billiards table which converts into a table tennis table
As a non-profit organisation owned and operated by the Christadelphian Welfare Association, Olivet Care has been privileged to serve our local Ringwood community for over 70 years. While operational funding covers essential daily care, lifestyle enhancements like this courtyard are made possible through the dedicated support, ideas and generosity of our extended community.
Thank you to everyone who contributed funds, time and craftsmanship to bring this vision to life. We warmly invite families and friends to drop by, enjoy the new courtyard and spend quality time together!
