Gurney Elementary students visit Hamlet Retirement Community
Third-graders from Gurney Elementary School visited the Hamlet Retirement Community, bringing games, music, and a plush skunk. They played Crazy 8’s and shared stories, fostering connections with the residents. The students are part of the Gurney Service Learning Club, which aims to build relationships across generations. They also discussed their school-wide reading of “A Boy Called Bat,” which features a skunk. This visit is part of the club's monthly activities at the retirement community throughout the school year.
