GenConnect is an 8-week intergenerational program based at the Occasional Care centre in Croydon. The program connects younger and older generations via a variety of interactive activities.
In the spirit of the much-loved ABC documentary 'Old People's Home for 4 Year Olds' we are offering Maroondah senior residents the chance to interact with the preschool children in our free Occasional Care GenConnect program.
Participation requirements
To get involved participants will need to be:
- aged over 55 years
- able to commit to the remainder of the 8-week program
- be independently mobile
- be able (and willing) to take part in a variety of activities.
There will be crafts, songs, dance and lots of fun!
Transport to and from the Occasional Care centre is available if needed, and you will also enjoy morning tea with the children.
