Last week on Wednesday, a couple of students volunteered (including me) to go to the Elderly Daycare, where you talk to the elders, share some things that you did, ask them about their day. Just basically having a conversation with the elders.
Last week, I talked to grannies that I talked the last time I went there. They told me about their day and what they did for the past few weeks. I feel calm around elder people because when I see them, I remember my grandparents and great-grandparent, it makes me wonder how they're doing back in my hometown.
Talking to elders are so different when talking to other teenagers like me, some teenagers talk about social media, their crushes, girl-dramas, sport. With elders, on the other hand, they talked about so much stuff that hardly teenagers does. I can understand since there's a huge age gap and the generation and society is different now from way back then. I had a lot of fun talking to the elders and it's really nice to talk with them about stuff. I would want to go back but I have a lot of catching up to do so maybe I'll go next time
I am a student at in Uru Mānuka. In 2020 I was a year 9 and in 2021 I will be a year 10. This is a place where I will be able to share my learning with you. Please note....some work won't be edited - just my first drafts, so there may be some surface errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas.
