Carrington "Through Our Eyes" Project Wraps Up for the Year
We are thrilled to announce the successful completion of the Carrington "Through Our Eyes" Project for this year. This meaningful initiative has allowed our students to connect with residents of the Carrington Aged Care Facility in Grasmere, forging intergenerational bonds that have left a lasting impact on both the students and the residents.
Throughout the year, students visited Carrington in small groups, engaging in thoughtful conversations and learning about the rich histories and life experiences of the residents. These visits culminated in the creation of heartfelt videos that recapped the life stories of each resident, which were presented during the final visit on September 3rd.
To celebrate the conclusion of the project, students and residents shared a special lunch together, reflecting on the time spent together and the friendships formed. The final presentations were a beautiful tribute to the connections made, highlighting the importance of listening to and learning from those who have come before us.
We are incredibly proud of our students for their dedication to this project and grateful to the residents of Carrington for welcoming our students into their lives. We look forward to continuing this wonderful tradition in the years to come.
