At Sonya Lodge Residential Care Home we celebrate Burns Night every year with a range of themed activities.
This year we started the day by reading some Robert Burns’ poems and listening to some Scottish music. In the afternoon we put on our tartan hats which was enjoyed by our residents and team alike!
The foodie element of the day began in the later afternoon. We have formed a little tradition at Sonya Lodge; we eat rough oat cakes with mashed potatoes and haggis, which sounds a little unusual but don’t knock it until you’ve tried it! Our residents loved it and most had seconds!
To finish the day, our ladies and gents enjoyed a tea trolley with shortbread biscuits and millionaire shortbread.
Everyone really enjoyed Burns Night with smiles and full tummies all around!
