In the final week of term, fourteen Beacon Academy students visited Heather View Care Home to share some Christmas cheer with residents, sharing festive stories and handmade cards, and singing some festive tunes.
Staff, students and residents enjoyed a sing along that filled the air with merriment, turning the visit into a joyful celebration of the season.
Head of Personal Development at Beacon Academy, Katie Richardson, commented, “The interactions were wonderful to see, and it appeared to be a rewarding and valuable experience for all concerned. This heartening experience not only brightened the spirits of the residents at Heather View but also showcased the kindness and warmth of our wonderful students. It was a lovely opportunity for us to come together and make a positive impact beyond the classroom and into our community. We are delighted to be working with Heather View Care Home to arrange regular visits and look forward to visiting again soon.”
