4 . Residents at Parkfield House Nursing Home celebrated the end of a £10,000 project with a showcase of their work with friends and family.

For the past year the group, known as the Parkfield Peckers, have worked closely with artists, Glebe Primary School and creative ageing charity Equal Arts as they delved into the history of the area and those who’ve lived at the 19th Century home.

Hannah Wood from charity Equal Arts said: “The exhibition at Uxbridge Civic Centre was just the icing on the cake! Going into the project, there was so much enthusiasm from the group to explore the heritage of the home, so many have their roots in the area and we were keen to capture and share their knowledge in creative ways.”

There’s been a mixture of creativity with illustration, photography, portraiture, music, story-telling and collage as the group took part in weekly artist-led workshops and linked up with schoolchildren to share ideas.

Glendeen Quow, manager of the Canford Healthcare-run home, is in no doubt about the project’s benefit to residents, staff and the home. She said: “It’s been a busy year and we have all loved every minute of it. It’s been a privilege to learn about our fascinating heritage and a joy to see our residents grow in confidence each week as they were introduced to the different workshops and artists. We have enjoyed strengthening our relationships with the local community, especially with the staff and children at Glebe Primary School.”

Clare Sheldon, who provides Pastoral Support at Glebe Primary School, said: “The children have been proud to be a part of this project and connect with the Parkfield residents. It’s been great for them to have experience in talking to and sharing with older people, it gives them a stronger sense of understanding and compassion. This project has been a great way of exploring their own emotions and identity and we look forward to continuing our friendship with Parkfield.”

8 . Although dinosaurs became extinct nearly 65 million years ago, they are very much alive in the hearts and minds of today’s children. The Dinosaur Museum is a perfect learning environment for children.

● compare and group together different kinds of rocks based on their appearance;

● describe in simple terms how fossils (化石) are formed.

Children should be taught to:

● recognise that living things can be grouped in different ways;

● identify and name different living things in their local and wider environment;

● recognise that environments can change and that this can sometimes cause danger to living things.

Children should be taught to recognise that living things have changed over time and that fossils provide information about living things that lived on the Earth millions of years ago.

Introductory talks are available if required and are free. In case you want your group to have an introductory talk, it must be booked ahead of time.

Visitors to the Dinosaur Museum are encouraged to touch and use all their senses to experience the dinosaur world. Information on dinosaurs is given in a fun way and the very latest information on dinosaurs is presented — there is always something new to learn.
