Just some of the activities we have enjoyed with the residents at our local care home recently! 😊 repotting plants, crafts, games, decorating and much more! Wednesdays after school are the best 💜 @pupilparly @Greenfaulds_HS #GhsGenerations

First day of our can collection station in school ♻️ The cans will be collected, crushed and then picked up by our local care home who recycle them for money 💜 #ghsgenerations @pupilparly

Wonderful work again from our @GenerationsGhs committee. Great example of our motto, Make a Difference, in action ❤️

The first of our pen pal letters ready to be delivered today! 🥰 Such lovely letters written by the pupils hoping to get to know the residents at one of our local care homes a little better ✉️ looking forward to our first replies! 💜 #GHSGenerations @pupilparly #intergenerational

Was great to get another session in today of our @Greenfaulds_HS Parliament, even if we had to reduce the numbers. Shafa gave an update on her bid to become an MSYP and we got started on ideas for our campaign this year which is aiming to raise awareness of gender based violence

💜 very proud of this group!

On a cold,dark night it warms the ❤️ to see @GenerationsGhs organising to write letters in their free time to residents of the local carehome at the start of their penpal project.What a wonderful way to use their right to leisure time in the hope of brightening someone else’s day

An evening well spent helping our local care home crush cans for their recycling project! ♻️ I think we had a little too much fun doing this! #intergenerational #generationsworkingtogether #Ghsgenerations @pupilparly

Delighted to see the first meeting of the year of our @Greenfaulds_HS @GenerationsGhs group. These guys have already done such great work with the elderly in the community that they were nominated for a Young Scot Award in 2019/20. Can’t wait to see what they get up to next.
