Children at hdc Nursery Dartmouth can regularly be seen out and about in their local community.
One of their recent adventures took them to The Fleet Care Home to celebrate resident Joan Hannaford’s 105th birthday.
The children took gifts of hand-made cards and flowers to the care home to celebrate with Joan and her friends. They joined residents with games, stories, birthday cake, and, of course, a rapturous rendition of ‘Happy Birthday’!
Nursery Manager, Natasha Slade commented, “The children love to visit the residents at The Fleet Care Home, where they forge meaningful relationships between the generations. Discovery of the world around us is an important part of our curriculum so all of our outings are filled with exploration and practical life skills, but this particular visit was a real honour to celebrate a remarkable lady. We had such a lovely morning and the team at The Fleet were wonderful hosts, as always.”
The nursery team shared a video of their outing on their Facebook page, and you can watch the joyfully narrated story of their adventure below.
