Banksia Open Day – Wednesday 16th and Saturday 19th May Tinonee Gardens’ new “Banksia” welcomed curious members of the public to its first Open Day today. Visitors were treated to personal tours of this modern and spacious state of the art facility with an opportunity to enjoy a cuppa and talk further with our expert staff regarding their loved one’s care choices. The Tinonee Residents Choir joyfully reprised their concert repertoire entertaining our visitors with this much l...oved community activity. 2NUR-FM’s Kim Player was our special guest this morning speaking with Banksia Care Manager, Cate Johnson, and new residents and family members describing the benefits of living in Banksia. You may have heard their stories on 2NUR-FM throughout the day. Special thanks to our generous sponsors which have made kind donations to welcome and inform our visitors - we couldn’t do it without you! And some lucky visitors will enjoy the spoils of the great prizes included in the major raffle to be drawn on Saturday’s Open Day. Visitors Helen Bower and friend had the honour of cutting the cake to congratulate Banksia at this exciting time. And remember, there’s a second chance to take a tour and find out more about what Banksia has to offer at the Open Day being held this Saturday 19th May. All Welcome!
