On 29 April, the K1 children from My First Soool @ Blk 82 Strathmore Ave celebrated Hari Raya virtually with the seniors from SilverAce. During the first part of the celebration, the children interviewed the seniors by asking questions about Hari Raya. In addition, the seniors and children experimented with the weaving technique to create a ketupat craft with facilitation from the educators. Despite the virtual engagement, the children and seniors had a meaningful bonding time interacting with each other. Research has shown that connecting with young children/adults can enhance seniors’ confidence and improve memory. All in all, the programme has slowed children learn how to respect, show care and concern towards the seniors.
