Year 10 and 11 students at Hodgson Academy in Poulton hosted their Senior Citizen Christmas Lunch and invited many care home residents to join them.
The Primrose Residential Bank Care Home was one of the care homes invited.
A spokeman said: “This afternoon we were lucky enough to be invited back to Hodgson Academy for their Seniors Christmas afternoon.
“The students made the food, and the school band sang and played for us too. It was a wonderful afternoon, with card tricks, and a visit from the big man …and the residents cleared up on the raffle too! The students were so attentive, super polite and couldn’t do enough for us. A bit of nostalgia for our resident, Ena, who was a former pupil 74 years ago!!”
Enjoy 27 fabulous photos of festive lunch:
