Last Wednesday, our Year 6 Community Leaders visited the Baptcare Southaven Day Centre. The students spent time playing games and demonstrating community service by interacting with elderly residents. They learned stories about the older generations, fostering meaningful intergenerational connections and leaving a positive impact on both the students and the residents.

On Wednesday, the 22nd of May, the Community Group walked over to the local aged care, to visit them. This was a great thing to experience because when you get older you might find that you don't get visited as often by friends and family so we thought it would be good to give them some company. There were three people there, Ban, Lida and Bernie. Lida was an Italian lady who didn't speak English but managed to participate in Guess Who. Bernie was a retired soccer player and police officer. Ban was a retired doctor, who managed to remember everything from being a doctor, but not my name. Overall, it was truly an amazing experience and I would do it again in a heartbeat.
