FEBRUARY 2010

 Shalom and Konnichiwa! SHALOM NIPPON, this year’s major fundraising event, is only 3 weeks away. On the afternoon of 21 February 2010 Shalom Court will be transformed into a traditional Japanese “izakaya” restaurant with the management committee as your Japanese cooks, waiters and entertainers! A very limited number of tickets are still available at $75 which includes a sampling of all Japanese dishes and open bar.  The proceeds will support the construction of a new fence on the western boundary of the Shalom Court site. For ticket availability and bookings contact our Administrator, Suzanne Abel, 521 7325.

 Shalom Court welcomes the Stiebel to Shalom Court! The Raye Freedman Library is currently under renovation and the Stiebel services are now held in the former Albert House (originally the home of Shalom Court’s first nurse manager but latterly storage space for Shalom Court and other community organisations). The efforts of Grounds Manager, Rhoda Montgomery, to return the Albert House lounge and bedrooms to useable and homey community spaces, have been outstanding.

 Rose Copeland, a resident of Shalom Court for 10 years, passed away peacefully in January, and the management committee, staff and residents extend blessings of long life to Rose’s family. Rose will be remembered by staff for the clarity of her thought and expression, a positive spirit and always bright countenance in spite of a body of  restricted mobility, and her wry sense of humour that was injected into all conversations. At Rose’s request a passionfruit vine and daphne were planted two years ago, and their fruits and flowers will be a fragrant reminder of a storytelling lady of wisdom and kind heart.

 Rabbi Dean Shapiro from Beth Shalom visits 5 February, 10.15am and all community members are invited to drop for an informal chat and cup of tea. For other February events click here
