It’s been a fantastic few months, filled with laughter, great company, and plenty of special moments One of the highlights has been the visits from the pre-kindy children at a local daycare their energy and big smiles never fail to brighten our days! Our ‘Invite a Friend to Lunch’ days have also been a big hit, giving everyone the chance to bring along a friend and introduce them to this wonderful Day Centre, whilst sharing a meal and meeting new people
We’ve been lucky to have Harry the One-Man Band entertain us with his incredible music, bringing plenty of toe-tapping fun to the centre And of course, we couldn’t let Chinese New Year pass without a celebration there was delicious food, festive decorations, and lots of joy shared among friends
I hope you enjoy this edition of our newsletter, filled with stories from our recent activities and a peek at what’s coming up next Thank you for being part of our Villa Dalmacia family we love sharing these moments with you!
Warm regards,
Treasa Lonergan General Manager

We were blessed to have Father Giancarlo join us for a beautiful Mass, offering a time for reflection and connection His visits are always a highlight, bringing comfort and a sense of community to our attendees
For those with a love of cooking (or simply a love of good food!), one-on-one cooking lessons with our cook, Del, have been a fantastic addition to our schedule
The first mass for the year was recently held at the Day Centre, with Father Giancarlo leading the service. One of our attendees, Agnese, gave a wonderful reading during the service Thank you to everyone who joined us

Music, Laughter,
and
Dancing with Harry the One-Man Band!
What a fantastic day it was at Villa Dalmacia Day Centre recently as we welcomed Harry the One-Man Band! From the very first note, the room was filled with energy, excitement, and plenty of toe-tapping fun Harry took us on a musical journey through the decades, performing classics from Edith Piaf, The Rolling Stones, Tina Turner, and Engelbert Humperdinck Attendees clapped along, sang their hearts out, and even took to the floor for a little dance there was no resisting the rhythm!
The joy and laughter were infectious, and it was wonderful to see so many happy faces enjoying the music together A huge thank you to Harry for sharing his talent and bringing so much warmth and fun to our centre We can’t wait to have him back again!
Furry Friends Visit Villa
Our Villa family recently had some extra special visitors Panda & Soda, two adorable pups belonging to our staff! These furry friends brought endless smiles, warm hugs, and plenty of tail wags as they made their rounds, spreading joy to everyone they met
Joe, in particular (pictured below), formed a special bond with Soda we think he may have found a new best friend! Moments like these remind us why Villa Dalmacia feels like home a place filled with love, laughter, and the occasional paw print
A heartfelt thank you to our wonderful staff for sharing these bundles of joy with us!
