The first time in a nursing home can be somewhat intimidating for children, but for the second-graders at Hillierst Elementary School, it was a fun experience. This year, she attended Valentine's Day party with the citizens at the Colonial Manor of Lawrence nursing home.
"It's been a way for us to spread friendships to those people who are normally lonely during this time at school. Kathy Davis, second grade teacher.
Two classes of second-graders made valentines to give to the residents of Colonial Manor. The class put out a program for the residents.
"We explained to the kids before we went that the people at the nursing home may be hard of hearing or in wheelchairs," Davis said. "The kids responded very positively to their experience."
Outside the home, resident Everette Wilson greets students and teachers as they get off the bus on their way to the party.
brooke Hanson, 8-year-old second-grader at Hillcrest Elementary School, works on her Valentine's Day sack, for the party. The students also made Valentine's Day cards for the residents at Colonial Manor.
