Hello everyone,
We hope everyone has had a great week. Next week we celebrate WA Seniors Week. Seniors Week is a time to celebrate the role older adults play in our community — the wisdom, life experiences, and ongoing contributions. It’s also an opportunity to highlight the importance of positive ageing, where staying active, socially connected, and engaged in lifelong learning are at the heart of wellbeing.
WA Seniors Week Events
WA Seniors Week 2025 runs from Sunday 9 November to Sunday 16 November.
Check out our amazing events for Seniors Week!
Footy Fitness and Morning Tea

We kick off our Seniors Week celebration at the home of our partner, West Coast Eagles. Footy Fitness is a weekly walking footy group for those 55+, focusing on developing fitness, balance and strength through footy skills and gameplay in a safe and fun environment. After the session, we’ll have a chance to have a social catchup with a delicious morning tea provided by the Town of Victoria Park.
If you haven’t tried Footy Fitness before, this is a fantastic opportunity to give it a go and meet some new friends.

Wrap up Seniors Week with your friends at the Village Hub. We will be screening Nyad, an inspiring movie that tells the remarkable true story of Diana Nyad, who — at 64 — achieved her lifelong dream of swimming from Cuba to Florida.
