Leighton house

SVA stands for Student Volunteer Army. Room 4 got chosen to make a TEAM to find a project to do. Our class voted on different ideas, we voted to visit the Gisborne hospital unfortunately the hospital said no because of the number of measles cases. Koka Nolian said as a back up plan we could visit Leighton House, so our project was visiting a rest home. 

On the day of the visit parents drove us there finally we arrived.

We walked in, I was quite scared to talk to elderly people but I did. Jill was one of the elderly people and another elderly person was Manu. We played Scrabble, I went outside and played ping pong. Me and Kobe talked to an old man named Noel. We were talking to him but he couldn't see us. 

THE END!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
