Last month our Protea Kindergarten children had the wonderful privilege of visiting a local nursing home, Sylvan Woods Aged Care. Songs were sung, stories were shared and exchanges of warm smiles and hugs touched everyone’s hearts.

“In those at either end of the life course – the young and the old – you find striking similarities.  The young and the old share a different rhythm.  It’s one that focuses not only on doing, but on the power of being. It’s the simplicity of playing with blocks or tending to flowers.  The young and the old are most closely connected with the essence of living.  Rather than time being the enemy – rushing time or stressing to fit as much into time as possible – time becomes a comfortable companion, a circle rather than a line.” ~ Susan V. Bosak.

We look forward to our monthly visits and making meaningful relationships between our young and the old.
