Spring Fair
Our annual fair day has grown in to a major community event which attracts crowds of visitors from all over
South East Queensland to experience the fun activities, market stalls, street entertainment and delicious food.
This year we have many new attractions including a photo booth like youve never seen before,
inspiring cooking demonstrations with The Contented Chef, a seedling potting station, street
performers and local entertainment. Bring your family and friends to enjoy a great day
out at our 6th annual Fair this Spring. We are located just a short walk from the
bus interchange at Victoria Pt. Parking is available in the adjacent shopping centre.
Walk past Centre Management though our gate and straight into the village.

Q & A with
RESIDENTS
Dawn resident for 6 months
Q: Why did you decide to move to a retirement village?
A: I decided to move to a retirement village mainly for the lifestyle it offers.
I have been widowed for many years and whilst I have lots of good
caring friends. I find I still have to work hard at organising outings etc.
With village life most of this is already arranged for me but I still have
the choice of seeing my friends and family whenever I choose.
Q: What has the process of moving in to a village been like for you?
A: The move to the village was quite smooth but not without the usual
stress that goes with such a move. However the staff at the village
were always ready and willing to offer assistance whenever requested.
Q: Why did you choose the villa you moved in to?
A: Initially I chose my villa because I missed out on another villa, but
now I am very happy as it is brand new and very comfortable. I have
a Keppel which suits me to a tee having 2 bedrooms and a study.
Q: What are your favourite things about living at Renaissance?
A: I have not been in the village for long but I love the choices the village
offers and also I have found all of the residents to be very helpful and
very welcoming, warm and friendly.
Q: Have you taken up any new hobbies or activities since retiring?
A: So far I have not taken up any new interests since being in the village,
but a lot of the activities I am already interested in and will be pursuing
them in the very near future. Overall I am very pleased and happy that
I moved to Renaissance.
