Join us for a heart-warming event as we celebrate the launch of “Grandparents Chat Book”!
Discover the captivating tales collected by the diligent pupils of 5th and 6th classes from across Westport, who embarked on a special project to interview their beloved grandparents. These beautiful stories ranging from the funny to the sad are a great snapshot of lives lived, proving that even the most seemingly ordinary stories hold extraordinary treasures.
We invite you to the Westport Library, where these compelling stories will be on display for the week commencing June 15th, 2024.
At the launch event, expect to be moved as the pupils take center stage, sharing excerpts from their own scripts and reflecting on the profound lessons learned from connecting with their grandparents. Through live and prerecorded videos, immerse yourself in the laughter, wisdom, and nostalgia as the pupils recount funny incidents and insights gained about days gone by.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the dedicated teachers whose support made this project possible, and to the enthusiastic pupils and their gracious grandparents for sharing their lives with us.
This launch marks the beginning of an ongoing tradition, with future editions anticipated to occur biennially. Don’t miss this opportunity to celebrate the power of storytelling and familial bonds.
Join us in honoring the past, cherishing the present, and embracing the stories that connect us all.
