For their acts of kindness, the girls painted wooden flowers for the town community garden. They planted hyacinth bulbs which they then delivered to the local residential fold and entertained the residents by singing to them. They built birdhouses so they could feed the birds in winter and sowed wildflower seeds in planters for their own gardens to attract bees. 

They enjoyed an activity day at Lorne Estate, went to see Moana2 at the cinema, hada visit from a mobile zoo and increased their fitness thanks to 2 exercise classes froma local fitness instructor. The girls celebrated the unit’s 80" birthday with a carnival themed party.
