Joy, laughter and plenty of smiles filled the halls of Chppendale Street’s Regis Aged Care residential home on Sunday, the 10th of August, as the Burdekin Water Festival Junior and Senior Ambassadors delighted residents with a wonderful visit!
An annual event, the Burdekin Water Festival’s High Tea continues to warm the hearts of everyone in the community as both Junior and Senior Ambassadors swap stories with some of the oldest members of the shire over a delicious spread of morning tea favourites.
Over the weekend, the excitement of Regis’ residents was beyond contagious, and the worldly theme of this year’s festival, “Bon Voyage Roam the Globe” left residents feeling nothing but nostalgia as they admired photos of iconic landmarks from far and wide.
Many reminisced on their time spent abroad, with Burdekin Water Festival Committee Member and Ambassador Coordinator, Kari Ravizza, noting photographs and decorations inspired by the scenery of Rome were particularly popular amongst the residents.
Over the course of the morning, the Ambassadors presented a showcase for the residents to enjoy where they each performed a selection of talents including cooking skills, dancing, and singing.
The High Tea stands as one of the most special events on the Burdekin Water Festival calendar, and the entire Committee cannot thank Regis Ayr enough for continuing to welcome the Ambassadors into the home for the magical morning.
As the calendar flicks on over, the Burdekin Water Festival’s dedicated Committee and wonderful Ambassadors are now busily preparing ahead of next Saturday’s momentous QMN Manufacturing Long Lunch and Senior Crowning Event.
Commencing from midday at Populin’s Hall, the afternoon will see the iconic Queen Street venue transform into a magical world overflowing with the flavours and aesthetics of a European Summer as the 2025 Ambassadors and Committee Members toast to tradition and crown the 2025 Winning Senior Ambassador and Runner Up.
Additional details on the event can be found online at burdekinwaterfestival.com.au, and the Burdekin Water Festival Committee encourages the community to stay up to date with all festival news through each of their social media pages.
