Tres Bien, The Old Vic!

The Old Vicarage recently held a Paris-themed day for residents to enjoy.

They counted in French during their routine morning armchair exercises and danced the ‘can can’. Everyone chuckled and wished they could kick as high as the You Tube performance they watched!

Staff shared photographs of Paris for everyone to enjoy and discuss, and a quiz with ‘interesting facts session’ was held, leading to some great conversations.

Music by French singers Edith Piaf and Sacha Distel was enjoyed and everyone agreed it was ‘tres bien’ indeed!

The Old Vicarage care home is based in Leigh, near Sherborne in Dorset.
