VE Day celebrations at Belleville Lodge

VE Day celebrations at Belleville Lodge

Here are some photos of our VE day Celebration on Friday.

We decorated our areas with flags and enjoyed Everything British throughout the day.

Everyone enjoyed fish and chips on newspaper for lunch followed by a Celebration trifle. In the afternoon we enjoyed a traditional afternoon tea with lots of lovely cakes.

We also had a sing song of all the old songs that were sung during the war years, Vera Lynn was the favourite of course.

I downloaded lots of pictures of VE day from the internet and we had a reminiscence session which everyone enjoyed I also made the pictures into placemats for the dining room.
