Wyndham senior citizens are in for a treat with an event-packed itinerary for the 37th Victorian Seniors Festival
Wyndham City Family Friendly portfolio holder and Mayor, Cr Mia Shaw, said for the entire month of October, seniors would have many opportunities to socialise and meet new friends at concerts, morning and afternoon teas as well as educational activities and exercise sessions.
“Older adults are our fastest growing demographic in Wyndham, with the population expected to grow from just over 32,000 in 2019 to almost 84,000 in 2041—an increase of around 160 per cent,” Cr Shaw said.
The Centre will host an afternoon filled with songs and laughter at Afternoon Melodies, followed by afternoon tea, all for just a gold coin donation on Saturday 21 September from 2pm to 4pm.
There is a full calendar of events, activities and programs—one of the highlights is a lunch dance where Bobby James will sing classic hits by Elvis, Tom Jones and Neil Diamond.
A morning of trivia and Devonshire Tea will be hosted at The Garden Feast (previously Grevillia Nursery) as well as a guided walk along the Werribee South Waterfront.
