Off to meet their “grandparents”

Grade 4/5 students from Arrow Heights Elementary School walked to Mt. Cartier Court this week for their first visit to meet their "Adopt-A-Grandparent" buddies. Each student has his or her own grandparent. The monthly visits foster rewarding friendships and experiences for both our students and for our elderly friends. The Grade 4 or 5 classes at AHE have been participating in the program since its inception in 1982. Photo courtesy of Laurel Russell
