Dear Santa: Elves Pen Christmas Wishes to Santa
Far, far away in the North Pole, a bustling workshop is filled with cheerful elves.
The sounds of jingle bells and rustling parchment can be heard as Santa’s little helpers get to work preparing gifts for December 25.
To celebrate the most wonderful time of the year, we sat down with Seasons’ own friendly elves, who shared their favourite Christmas memories, traditions and gifts with us.
On behalf of the Seasons team and residents, we wish you and your families a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
New Year, New Home
From breaking Christmas crackers at the dinner table to singing along to carols at the Seasons’ annual concert, Jan and Ken are looking forward to celebrating the New Year in style.
The pair recently moved into a Seasons community after they both experienced their own health challenges and no longer felt comfortable living alone.
Since moving into the retirement community, Jan has taken advantage of the active lifestyle calendar, with her favourite inclusion being the live entertainment, while Ken has enjoyed the well-deserved break from cooking.
“It’s a lovely place to live,” Jan said.
“With all the health issues, we have felt much more confident living here because of the extra support.
“The staff are all lovely – from the cleaners right through to the receptionist – they look after us all the time and are always happy to help.”
The couple first met at a Seniors’ Club seven years ago and were instantly drawn to each other’s personalities, as well as their effortless ability to find common ground in many areas.
After the passing of their husband and wife many years ago, Jan and Ken said their partnership had brought new meaning to their lives.
