Intergenerational playgroup project
 A
new intergenerational playgroup had its first session at Barwon
Health's Percy Baxter Lodges in North Geelong in September as part of a
pilot research project, the Intergenerational Playgroup Project.
Playgroup Victoria has partnered with the National Ageing Research
Institute and Barwon Health to develop the project to improve social
inclusion with aged care residents and engage these residents with
local families by providing a positive environment in a community
playgroup setting.
The playgroup is facilitated by an activities officer from Percy
Baxter Lodges and an early childhood worker from the City of Greater
Geelong. The pilot is a 20-week project and follows the success of BUPA
Treasures Playgroup based at the BUPA Bellarine aged care facility in
Newcomb.
