Today at the Senior Station we had Nisreen back with us who started the session with some deep breathing exercises and easy stretches.  We decided to test our Senior’s memory skills.  Our members were divided into four teams where each team was given a pack cards.  They needed to make pairs by matching a red and black card.  Wow, we had set aside 45 minutes for this, but our very alert Seniors finished the game in 20 minutes.

Next on the program was “Game of fears”. Nyctophobia, Nomophobia, Cynophobia, phobias that we didn’t even know existed.  Once again, our Seniors were not to be out done, two teams completed the game with 100% correct answers in identifying the different phobias.

The first Tuesday of a month is celebration day. We celebrate 6 birthdays in April; Dolly, Gamini, Husseina, Sheila, Deepthi and our own Farida. A mouth-watering chocolate cake sponsored by Farida was cut by all.

Last but not least, we had Rapti Fernando on the key boards playing popular numbers of the 60s and 70s which had our members singing, rollicking and dancing to their heart’s content.  Thank you very much Rapti for so graciously entertaining our members. We look forward to having you with us again!
