Me, You, and Everything Else

A day out with the Community Sub Group

by Castle Vale School

At Castle Vale school we have school council reps in each form. In addition there are 4 sub-groups one of which is Community. This group has engaged with the Inter-Generational Group in the community. This event with the over 50’s is the first of a range of activities that will bring old and young together in a positive and enjoyable way.

We arrived at 10:00am in the morning at first I was a bit apprehensive as I thought that I wouldn’t be able to start a conversation with anyone. But as it got later I started to talk with members of the community and I really enjoyed it. We met many people and it is really good to talk to elder people of the community as you can learn a lot from an older person. My favourate part was doing the line dance ‘badly’ but I enjoyed it I would love to do it again, then me and Myles had to take photos of our experience of the day at the residents club. We also had the job of giving out free bingo cards to people.
