In conjunction with our school’s event (Star Project) and SSDB, the children decided that they wanted to make a difference in our pioneer generation; their grandparents. Star Learners Ang Mo Kio collaborated with Lion Befrienders; a Senior Activity Centre (SAC). The children visited the SAC weekly and did exercises with them. They also put up performances for the seniors. When it was time for the Star Project event, they invited the seniors, on top of their very own grandparents. They prepared goodie bags, food, and had an array of activities lined up for their heroes. The children even made a ‘HERO’ badge for every grandparent who attended. Both the seniors and children definitely put on smiles on one another’s face. Just like what Richard Garnett had mentioned, “Love is the greatest gift one generation can leave to another”.
