Australia Day Celebration | MiCare

Australia Day Celebration

The social support group had a fantastic time celebrating Australia Day, filled with fun and laughter. Highlights of the day included a lively thong tossing competition and an Aussie slang quiz that had everyone in stitches. It was a great way to connect, share laughs, and embrace the Aussie spirit together.

The celebration doesn’t stop there—Australia Day festivities will continue all week with all the social support groups, ensuring even more opportunities for fun, connection, and enjoyment. It’s been a wonderful way to celebrate Australian culture and create lasting memories with friends and community members.

Australia Day is an opportunity to reflect on our nation’s complex history, celebrate the resilience and diversity that define us , and acknowledge the contributions of every Australian.  We would also like to recognise that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people’s sovereignty over the land was never ceded, and the comprehensive truth of Australia’s colonial history, including the injustices of dispossession, remains largely unacknowledged and untold.  At MiCare, we proudly support all communities across this great country, embracing the unique stories and backgrounds that shape our nation, and in line with our values of Empathy and Harmony. Let’s come together to share our experiences, fostering kindness and respect for one another.

 

Social Support Group

I attend the MiCare Social Support Group to connect with people, share a nice meal, and enjoy the company—I would truly miss it if I couldn’t attend. I look forward to the bus outings, as they give me the chance to socialise with others. The MiCare Social Support Group makes a big difference in my life. It gives me a reason to get up in the morning, stay active, and most importantly, have wonderful conversations with everyone. I chose MiCare after carefully considering different providers, and I’m very happy with my decision. My Home Care Package case manager at MiCare is always helpful and keeps in regular touch with me, which I really appreciate. I also enjoy living at MiCare Village in Carrum Downs, with the convenience of having the doctor and shops right next door.
