Local care home celebrates Valentine’s Day
Bayleaf Care Home, in Huntingdon, was filled with flowers, cards and sweets in celebration of St Valentine’s Day.
Staff and residents were joined by pupils from nearby St Johns CE Primary School who helped the resident creating heart-shaped cakes and decorations to decorate the home. The pupils then spent time reading stories with the residents
General Manager, Katie Wilkinson, said: “We’ve all had a lovely day making the cakes and decorating the home. It was lovely to be joined by St Johns Primary School and the residents loved interacting with the Pupils. We’ve had a whole range of treats and Valentine’s themed fun and we have enjoyed every moment of it!”
Andy Lindner, a resident at Bayleaf Care Home said: “It has been a lovely day. It was wonderful to see everyone go to so much effort to get involved with the day’s festivities. I really liked making the heart-shaped cakes and reading stories with the children from the school.”
