Senior students from St Joseph's Catholic Primary School recently brought joy and laughter to the residents of Andrew's House aged care facility, during a special visit to mark International Children's Book Day.
The celebration began with students singing and dancing for the residents, setting a cheerful tone for the visit. The young visitors then shared their favourite picture story books, reading aloud and chatting with residents about the stories they love most.
The visit was a heart warming experience for everyone involved, blending generations through music, storytelling, and meaningful conversation.
"It was a wonderful way to celebrate books and bring people together," principal Trish Mulqueen said. "The students loved it—and so did the residents."
The event highlighted the power of books to connect people of all ages and made for a truly memorable International Children's Book Day.
