Christmas Cheer Kicks Off at Epsom Village!

The festive season is in full swing at Epsom Village, thanks to the delightful visit from Dio’s youngest pupils. Every year, these adorable 3- and 4-year-old performers bring joy to our residents with their heartwarming Christmas concert, making it a highlight of our social calendar.

Their visit also gave us the perfect excuse to put up and decorate the Christmas tree and break out the festive hats! This year’s carol selection was a hit, with the energetic rendition of “Pop Bang Crack” stealing the show. After their performance, the girls presented handmade Christmas cards, lovingly crafted from recycled paper. They used waste paper from their classroom—old paintings, unnamed drawings, and leftover scraps from cutting activities—and transformed it into new paper for the cards, adding a thoughtful touch that made the occasion even more meaningful.

At Real Living, fostering connections with our local community is something we hold dear. Our relationship with Dio continues to grow stronger each year, with their Christmas concert and Mother’s Day performance now cherished traditions in our calendar.

Here’s to the joy of togetherness and the magic of the season!

Kenneth’s next chapter at The Avenue

Our newest residents at The Avenue couldn’t be happier. Take Kenneth, for example. Like many retirees, he wondered if it was too soon to make the move—he was still active, mowing lawns and managing his home with ease. But within days of settling into The Avenue Apartments, those doubts disappeared. Surrounded by new friends, modern comforts, and a welcoming community, Kenneth quickly realised he should have made the move sooner.
