This lovely initiative has been launched by the Times Educational Supplement and is happening in many schools across the country. It is a way for our students to connect with care home workers and residents this Christmas, to spread a bit of festive joy and cheer. We asked our students to write to care homes in the local area to let the workers and residents know we are thinking about them.
Our students have been busy composing letters about their preparations for Christmas, including what they are most looking forward to, descriptions of their Christmas dinner, the odd Christmas joke, and more poignantly, reflecting on what has been a challenging year with hope for the future.
