Morning tea with the Eagles

There’s something special about getting out and being part of the action, even if it’s from the sidelines.

Recently, a group of residents enjoyed a morning out at a West Coast Eagles training session, taking in the atmosphere while sharing morning tea together at the café.

With a warm drink in hand, they watched the players train, following the drills and enjoying the chance to see the team up close.

There were some proud Eagles supporters in the group. Bob showed up in his best West Coast Eagles jersey, while Terry had tucked a scarf into her walker to show her support.

For Angie and Kerry, it was the excitement of being there that made the morning special. Watching the players train and soaking up the atmosphere made it a day to remember.

Sometimes it’s the simple outings that mean the most. A change of scenery, something to watch and time spent together can turn into a really enjoyable morning.
