YEAR 5: DULWICH ALMSHOUSE RESIDENTS

n The boys completed their annual Community Action project in the Michaelmas term in Wellbeing. The project’s focus was on supporting older people in the local community. They boys learned a lot about loneliness and the impact it can have, especially at Christmas time, so they planned and prepared a Christmas party to host residents of care homes in our local area. We welcomed 20 guests into the Junior School Hall for an afternoon of festivities. The boys were assigned roles, which included greeting guests, serving tea and coffee, serving cakes, playing music, chatting with the guests, and more. Everyone came together to perform songs from the Christmas Concerts and for a Christmas sing-along. The party was a great success; the boys were incredibly thoughtful and welcoming towards our guests, and everyone left with big smiles on their faces.
