During this time of COVID19 as with all Retirement Places, Montcler has been in lockdown since early March. The students of St Joseph’s are taking turns each week to let the residents know that they are thinking of them. Last week the Preps with Miss March sent their little gifts. This is the reply they received with photos of some of the residents holding their gifts.

Dear wonderful Prep Class at St Josephs,

The Residents at Montcler received your beautiful cards, flowers, photos and stories today. They have asked me to pass on their THANK YOU to you ALL!

It really made their day! They said to say "Thank you for the beautiful flowers and cards. They appreciate your time to make them and send them on.

They said it was really enjoyable to receive these lovely gifts. They loved to hear all about the new playground and thought it was wonderful that you get to have your own area. It was great to hear about the news at the school and to see the photos that you so kindly shared with us."

"We are doing OK but everyone is really missing their families, friends and missing being able to get out and about. It really is a hard and a strange time for everyone. Hopefully things might get back to normal soon",

"Thank you again, it was the best part of our day! We really hope you can visit us again in the very near future. We really love your visits and enjoy getting to spend time with you all."

Take care and be safe

All our love

The Residents at Montcler
