As part of Community Outreach Week, a group of students visited the residents of Lilydale Aged Care. Students made connections through sharing life stories, playing BINGO, going for garden walks and teaching one another new skills like knitting and chess. Thank you to the Mr Ferre and 8C band who showcased their musical skills, playing an array of songs to get residents smiling and tapping to the beat.

Both students and residents enjoyed this valuable opportunity to build relationships, to learn from each other and enjoy each other’s company.
