Excited whispers rang around the
length of the bus. IGCSE Grade X G & H were going to “Little Sister’s Home
for the Aged” for our CAS activity of the year. We got off the bus after an
hour’s long journey. We were ushered into a room where we could drop off the
food we’d brought. Sugar, flour, coffee, tea, biscuits and noodles just formed
half of the list. We started off with a tour of the area where we were able to
see the kitchen, an aquarium, a bird house, the entertainment room and even the
gym. We were led through the residence wings and also the tailoring room. Some
of us stopped to talk to the residents.
One of them, a lively old woman named
Jessie, left us speechless. Her riddles were hilarious and left us hysterically
laughing. We sang a couple of songs for her and her smile was priceless. All in
all, the trip to Little Sister’s Home for the Aged was magnificent and we all
hope to visit some place like it soon.
