Nursery children visit Peterborough care home
The day was organised by scheme manager Sarah McClatchey and her neighbour Paula Somers, who is the manager and director of the nursery, to help the youngsters be aware of others and develop their communication skills.
Sarah said: “When I informed our residents what I had planned they were so excited and I cannot tell you how happy, encouraging and motivated they were on the day.

“The children sang songs before lunch and the residents sang along, joining in with the actions and clapped.”
