Baking together promotes the exchange between young and old in St. Georgen

in the Agevita senior center in St. Georgen an der Gusen, a special afternoon has ensured joy. Children from the all -day school (GTS/hub) visited the residents of the retirement home and baked cookies together. The enthusiasm on both sides was obvious - the little bakers had a lot of fun while the seniors watched with shining eyes.

This exciting day is the beginning of a long -term project. The GTS/hub and the senior center have teamed up to regularly enable encounters between the generations. In addition to baking, various other activities are also planned, such as playing, tinkering and singing. All of this aims to promote the exchange between younger and older generations.

real cooperation

"It is a real win-win situation," report Michaela Schöllbauer, head of the GTS/NABE, and Victoria Pojar-Simionca, the head of the senior center. Both groups benefit in this exchange: the children can develop social skills and consideration, while the seniors are distracted by the lively society of children and experience joy. This type of contact shows how valuable and enriching the encounter between young and old can be.

The warm afternoon is not just a one -time event, but the foundation for a partnership -based relationship that should be of great value for everyone involved. A context that opens up new perspectives for both the children and the seniors.

Through projects like this it becomes clear how important it is to enable the dialogue between different age groups. At a time when contact between the generations is often neglected, such initiatives can offer a lot to both the older and young people.
