I use the calendar provided here, then I save it to my PC and increase the font size. I make the boxes are bigger, which creates 2 sometimes 3 pages and I add in the days of the week on the other pages. Eg: Monday Tuesday etc. I photocopy and expand to 100% for my 5 low vision residents on the big sheets of paper.

I once read that it should be an hour per person per week to calculate how many hours per week, you'd need staffing for. Which works out to be 2 full timers in my job, (70 residents) but doesn't compute so well in smaller settings.

How to Hold Your Own Olympic Games

You can do the Javelin with a straw. Write the residents name on it with a marker pen and then the persons whose goes the furthest wins!

Hey everyone, I just checked in to see what everyone else is doing for Matariki and noticed it wasn't on the Calendar. We are making a weekly flavoursome soup to share. Does anyone else have any other ideas?
