The event was organised by the Orana Lifestyle team, who decorated the recently opened Leetham Room with black and gold tinsel decorations and special lighting for the occasion.

Joining residents from both aged care homes were Edward River Council councillors, staff, families and volunteers.

Local DJ Daniel O’Keefe, known as DJ Beefy, donated his services to provide a great night for the residents, with the playlist of songs all selected by the residents at Navorina and Orana.

Orana’s facility and regional manager Amanda Cleary Schofield welcomed everyone to the event, and said she hoped to see more like it in the future.

While guests were not required to ‘dress up’ for the evening, many took the opportunity to get their party clothes on and get on the dance floor.

They also enjoyed the photo wall with several fun props available.

More photos from the event will be included in Friday’s edition.
