Activities at Paternoster House Care Home
Our specialist activities staff are committed to organising a mix of activities and events for residents and the local community to get involved in, including trips out to local places of interest in our minibus and visits from entertainers and musicians. It is important to us that each individual who we support can get as much from these as possible, so we try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests and capabilities as best as possible, and encourage them to participate in any way they can. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and events as often as they can.

Life at Paternoster House Care Home
Polly & Pocket Piglets
This little piggy went to Paternoster, this little piggy's name was 'Polly', she brought along her brother 'Pocket' to make our residents as happy as they could possibly be! At just 4 weeks old these little piglets from Performing Pets brightened our day with each snuffle and nose snuggle in our residents’ arms. Animal therapy of all types can by so magical, Polly & Pocket although still very small certainly made a big impression!
Intergenerational Play
Our Easter celebrations culminated in a fun packed visit from the children of Wishing Well preschool nursery - Waltham Abbey. From drumming to arts & crafts, and puzzles our residents loved every moment interacting with these wonderful young children. Learning through play and intergenerational activities benefits all involved.
Easter Sunday
What a lovely Easter craft afternoon had by all to end our Easter festivities. Residents were joined by family members including grandchildren to make some fabulous crafts and gift treats to the young folk.
Happy Easter 2024 from all at Paternoster House!
