Some quotes from our residents:
Ann
Since moving into the small Calvary Village 17 years ago, I always feel at home, especially since the passing of my dear husband 14 years ago. The friendliness of residents is loving but not intrusive. The design of the units is great and easy to live comfortably in. There is a private small backyard and the lock up garage is an asset. The forming of 4 units set around a court gives me a feeling of security and close company. The Residents Committee has a positive relationship with Calvary’s Management.
Doug and Sue
We moved from our home in Eltham to Calvary Retirement Village because we wanted a more compact home and garden that was easier to manage and yet still have our independence. In our retirement we wanted the freedom to travel while knowing our home would be safe and secure, and our mail collected etc. One of the most surprising outcomes is how much we enjoy the friendship and fun that comes from living in community.

Calvary is an Authentic Community
Calvary Lutheran Retirement Village strives to be an authentic community. That is, a community that is real and normal and that which reflects the makeup and behaviour of a community where all people are valued. Calvary Lutheran Retirement Village promotes:
- People of all Ages: Our philosophy is that retired and older people are to be regarded as persons with dignity and inherent worth and are to be embraced and valued as members of our community and not segregated, protected or patronised in any way.
- Intergenerational living: The design and management of the village intentionally encourages three or more generations to interact daily
- Inclusiveness: an inclusive approach (particularly relating to children and seniors)
- Tolerance: is tolerant of all circumstances, creeds etc.
Calvary is a Friendly and Caring Community
When compared to other villages, Calvary Lutheran Retirement Village has very special qualities. These qualities are:
- Boutique: the limited number of units means that most village families will know each other and if they choose to, be part of each other’s daily lives. The Village will promote peer understanding and support.
- Friendliness: Our residents will be more than numbers – valued, unique individuals.
- Community Centre: The integrated Community Centre will be the prominent and primary focus of community life in the village.
- Promoting Companionship: Because the village is integrated within the Community Centre, it aims to help people avoid the traps of loneliness and provides activities and opportunities to socially mix with a wide range of people
Calvary supports Spiritual, Emotional and Physical Security
Our lives regularly require defense and support against attacks on our spiritual, emotional and physical well-being. Through its Christian approach, Calvary Lutheran Retirement Village provides support to assist the carriage of life through:
- Calvary Congregation Support: Calvary Congregation consists of 80 plus members who welcome the opportunity to volunteer their time to provide care and support to the Village families
- Pastoral Support: Calvary Congregation, through the leadership of its Pastor, will provide support to Village families, prayer, counselling and as required referral to appropriate professionals.
- Village Community Support: By virtue of the village location, Village villa design and rules of behaviour, physical support from Village families is promoted and encouraged.
Calvary villas are Timeless in their Design
Calvary Lutheran Retirement Village villas have been designed to meet the needs of Village families both today and in the future.
- Independence: Village villas are spaciously positioned on site to allow for active independent lifestyles.
- Innovative Floor Plan: The villa floor plans have been designed to provide smooth flow living. No choking points, no narrow passageways, no internal steps or changes in levels.
- Quality Interior Decoration: Making forward-looking provision in internal fit out and design has meant that only quality kitchen appliances, lighting and floor coverings have been selected.
Calvary supports Family-centered Lifestyles
Calvary Lutheran Retirement Village villas have been designed to bring families together.
- Children-to-Grand Parents: The Village support family integration within the lives of the Calvary Congregation and the extended wider families of Village residents.
- Family Activities: Activities that support intergenerational families will be encouraged to use the Village Community centre. For example – special birthday celebrations, weddings, funerals, and other events.
- Events: Family events including Christmas break-ups, Easter pageants, music concerts, dramas and other intergenerational events will be scheduled. We invite and encourage our Village families to be part of this, as participants as well as spectators.
