On October 30th. Ms. Yegidis’ and Mrs. Byrne’s first grade classes, and parent volunteers, walked to Southwinds Retirement Home to visit the residents. We sang songs, recited poetry and each student formally introduced themselves to 5 residents. We brought along baked good donated by our families and shared the snacks with them. Southwinds contributed the drinks and paper goods. We really enjoyed visiting them and are looking forward to seeing them again sometime next spring! THANK YOU to Mid-City Bus Company for donating a bus (on standby) for us in case of inclement weather, which we didn’t need because of the beautiful fall weather we encountered.
