To add to the festive spirit, there will be a number of entertaining activities ranging from performances by musicians to artists at work, as well as artisan stands and food stalls. The duo  Jacob Portelli on harp and violinist Emese Toth  will perform in the morning, while Mark Rapa’s trio will be providing entertainment in the afternoon. Paintings by artists Matthew Kassar and Tony Vella will be on sale, while Vladimir Kiuznetsov will be pencil drawing portraits of residents and guests.

Our emphasis is on giving holistic quality care.  We make sure that every resident enjoys living here to the point that they consider it their home, while their relatives have the peace of mind that their loved ones are assisted at all times.”
