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.
Ashley
Hello, name is Ashley and I am the Activities Coordinator here at Paternoster House.
My aim is to ensure every resident is as happy and active as possible. We host a wide variety of activities and live entertainment including singers and bands, animal and music therapies, art sessions, gardening and outings to the local community.
I love getting to know new residents and their families and helping them to settle into life at Paternoster House.

Pizza Making
Pizza Time At Paternoster House
This morning we had a cooking session and the residents chose to make their very own pizzas, don't they look scrumptious
Life Advice For The Younger Generation
This week our residents have been thinking about what advice they would offer the younger generation to live by.
The advice was sometimes amusing but always worthwhile.
Halloween At Paternoster House
Halloween at Paternoster House has been full of creative moments. Pumpkin carving and decorating, Halloween pom-pom building, and spooky goodie bags were just some of the things that the residents created this year.
The sweets were donated to Sunshine Nursery and Pre-School as part of our intergenerational link with them.
Friends Of All Ages
The residents at Paternoster House have developed a wonderful friendship with the children of Sunshine Nursery and Pre-school.
The children and our residents have been sending letters to each other, describing their days and the things they enjoy doing. The children have kindly created this Autumn display for us which was greatfully received as it will give our home a lovely Autumnal feel. We will have to think of something creative to return the favour.
Interactive Table Fun
Using technology in our home has become more important than ever. Paternoster House is fotunate to have a Digital Rainbow interactive table, as well as several tablets, for residents to use for games, puzzles, music and keeping in touch.
The table is always popular as it has a range of capabilities that can be enjoyed by all.
Harvest Festival
Paternoster House received a kind donation from Tesco in Waltham Abbey to support our ongoing Harvest Festival activities.
