Christmas, Elements style!

The Springwood Towers Hotel was once again the venue for our Elements Residents’ Christmas Party. With our own private function room, it was an even better venue for us this year, round tables and plenty of space adding to the welcoming ambience of the space. 63 people gathered for this annual occasion. We were treated […]

Black Pepper Fashion Show

A popular seasonal event for the ladies is the fashion parade and morning tea provided by the Black Pepper store at Centro at Springwood. Once again, the elegant models included our residents with Mary and Dorothy joining Sandra on the catwalk. They obviously did a great job as the sales registers were working overtime afterwards. […]

Our little Sausage sizzle

The third Friday of the month was designated as a Sausage Sizzle in the Bush Garden. Once again the weather was kind and large numbers enjoyed the beautiful setting. Sausages seem to taste much better when grilled on the BBQ and simply eaten with onions, bread and sauce. What more could we want? The occasion […]

Our 5th Birthday and Open Day celebration

Thank you to everyone for making our 5th Birthday and Open Day a success. I’m sure our residents were exhausted after such an early start and a busy day.

Elements Host National Seniors For Lunch

We recently hosted members of the National Seniors (Springwood) for lunch at our village communty centre, Club Elements.  The occasion included an “exclusive” menu prepared by Elements managing director (and renown “chef”), Chiou-See Anderson. From the empty plates and kind comments, all embraced the opportunity to taste some of the food that Elements appears to becoming famous for (I think some believe we are actually a restaurant!). The […]
