“Our regular Friday Happy Hour this week was marked with the placing of the Cooinda Olympic Torch in our activities room to celebrate the opening of the Olympics,” Cooinda chief executive Alex McKenna said.
“We have a high number of residents who enjoy watching sport, which we support with a paid subscription to ensure they can watch it on demand.
“We know the Olympics will be a real highlight of the next couple of weeks.

“Our Health and Wellbeing Team, along with volunteers and staff joined in the relay.
“It was wonderful to see everyone joining in the Australian green and gold theme, with plenty of laughs and smiles, friends catching up and a really happy, positive feeling throughout Cooinda, while Victoria as a whole is in the midst of a couple more COVID weeks.
