Bringing the young and the old together in social situations has long been understood to be beneficial for both groups. Conveniently, it’s also a conviction shared by our Activities Coordinator, Karen Hawtin, and the Oromahoe Kindergarten Centre Manager, Christiane Riegger.
Recently we combined the Kindy’s Lantern Festival, where they make and share lights to mark the winter solstice, with our third brazier evening, where our residents gather in the early evening around a fire on our Village Green to connect and socialise around the open fire, with mulled wine in hand and meat on the barbecue.
The children from Oromahoe paraded through the Care Facility, singing and holding their lighted lanterns, before making their way to the Village Green where the braziers stood lit and welcoming.
