The Rivervue Retirement Village was abuzz with excitement when Channel 7’s Sunrise weatherman and beloved personality, Sam Mac, joined the residents for a special live broadcast. The morning was filled with energy, laughter, and plenty of heartwarming moments as the vibrant community opened its doors to the nation.
The day showcased the village’s camaraderie, energy, and fun. Sam dived right into village life, starting with a lively game of carpet bowls and table tennis, where a little friendly rivalry sparked plenty of laughs. From there, he enjoyed a mimosa with the Ladies Friendship Group, finding out how this monthly catch-up helps residents feel connected and foster true friendship close to home.
A special moment for residents was when Sam was invited to plant a tree in Rivervue’s stunning wetlands. This not only served as a joyful reminder of the Sunrise visit to the village but also contributed to Rivervue’s ongoing efforts to preserve the natural beauty of the area—something its residents hold close to their hearts.
The Rivervue Fashion Walk also stole the show, with residents taking to the runway with style and flair, showcasing the type of fun events they run throughout the year.
Sunrise broadcast from Rivervue’s Community Centre, allowing viewers across the country to enjoy the breathtaking views overlooking the serene Maribyrnong River.
