As an activity coordinator, I’m always on the lookout for resources that truly engage our residents and bring joy to their day. Our brand-new Australia 1980–1985 Reminiscing Newspaper has quickly become a favorite! It’s filled with real articles and authentic advertising from the early ’80s, giving everyone a genuine taste of the era.
Easy to Print & Share
The Australia 1980–1985 Reminiscing Newspaper is best printed in A3 format for easy reading. I recommend printing double-sided—simply flip the papers in your printer, and you’ll have a professional front-and-back newspaper spread to hand out.
The larger size gives it that authentic newspaper feel, making it both enjoyable and practical for seniors.

Why It Works So Well in Aged Care
TThe 1980s were a time of new technology, bold fashion, evolving music, and world events that influenced everyday life. Newspapers from this period capture a wide range of topics including family life, work, television, sport, shopping, and transport.
Exploring these articles and advertisements encourages natural conversations, with residents often engaging in discussions about daily routines, community events, and cultural changes of the era.
