Music for Life

Last Friday, Class 5P had the great pleasure of visiting residents at IRT Woodlands Retirement Village, as a part of the Music for Life Program.

Students came prepared with their introduction letters and natural curiosity about the afternoon. They were immediately impressed by the gorgeous surroundings and were warmly greeted by IRT staff, residents and their music maestro, Sharon.

Under the direction of Sharon, students and residents sang a range of songs from the Sound of Music to Oklahoma. As we left, one student commented that it was, “the best afternoon, EVER!”

5P will continue to meet with their new friends every Friday, with the experience culminating in a concert at the end of Term 1. 5C will attend in Term 2, followed by 5S in Term 3. We feel very blessed to be able to connect with these community members in such a fun and engaging manner.
