The Estia Yarra Valley aged care facility in Yarra Junction hosted an inaugural Flower Festival with the residents, of whom many were born in England, deciding to utilise the occasion to put together a tribute for the late Queen Elizabeth II.
The flowers were picked from the gardens at the facility and each resident chose the flower and pinned them onto the wreath. Doreen Woolley, a resident born and raised and England, laid the wreath at the foot of the flagpole which was at half-mast.
Residents spent time with the wreath, mourning the loss of the much-loved monarch.
