Students and Care Home Residents Unite for Anti-Bullying Week

By Rosie, 12, Jill Dando News Correspondent  

Last week, 12 students from Priory Community School visited St Georges Care Home in Weston-super-Mare to spend time with residents.

Together, they wrote messages of kindness and love on slips of colourful card, which will be joined together to make a paper chain to mark Anti-Bullying Week.

Anti-Bullying Week is recognised every year in November, and students had previously discussed issues surrounding bullying as part of the campaign.

The resident chef at St Georges Care Home taught the group how to make decorative iced buns and carried out a demonstration. Students then handed out the buns and worked with elderly residents to decorate and customise them.

Once finished, they all enjoyed eating and sharing the buns together.

This visit forms part of an ongoing programme with Priory Community School, where students can volunteer to spend time in their community to help others.
