Intergenerational learning

A few children went to the Bellfield Centre which is situated in the grounds of Stirling Community hospital. We went along to share our Christmas songs and the nursery rhymes we learned as part of World Nursery Rhyme Week. As we had never been before and the Centre has only been operational for a few weeks, we decided to take along 6 children. This allowed us to see what the room we would be using was like and how many children and adults it could comfortably accommodate.

The session was such a fabulous success, we plan to build these visits into the curriculum and develop intergenerational learning between St Ninians and the Bellfield Centre. We hope they are ready for play dough and painting.
