It might have been the last day in November but for the Goodgym crew it was the beginning of Christmas.

Armed with bags of tinsel, baubles, stars and trees we set out to decorate the front foyer, back room and main cafe area ready for the residents at St Johns Court.

Some of the residents took a sneaky peak as we split into three teams to put up three trees. In no time the front foyer and back room had beautifully decorated Christmas trees which left the main cafe to be decorated from head to toe with tinsel. If there was a empty wall, we decorated it. By the end of the hour, the whole room glistened with tinsel and there were stockings and even crackers affixed to walls.

We only wish that we were flies on the wall this morning so that we could witness the residents rocking around the Christmas tree
