The ever-smiling Estelle has been a resident at Rathdowne Place, an aged care home and partner of the Brotherhood, for over a year. She recently joined her fellow Rathdowne residents for a Christmas giveaway for all the ages, when the Brotherhood organised a joyful event where the seniors were giving gifts to children from a nearby kindergarten. Tina Crespan, 41, who recently completed an aged care certificate with the Brotherhood and a mother of one of the kindergarten children, enjoyed the inter-generational fun. 'It's a really nice Christmassy feel,' said Ms Crespan.
