What Being a Junior Volunteer Means to Me
My name is Paige. I am 10 years old, go to Bluenose Academy, and I have been volunteering at Harbor View Haven for 2 years. I like volunteering because I get to spend time with the residents. We play fun games together and this makes us happy. I volunteer at special events and some activities such as paint classes, one on one visits, card games, bake groups and more. One on one visits are my favourite because I can get to know the residents better. I think the residents like it when the junior volunteers come to visit because they smile right away. Being a volunteer is great!

Update on Mealtimes at HVH Resident Council has voted in unanimous favor during the March meeting to move the larger meal from lunch time to supper time. This was implemented and residents are enjoying the change based on the majority of feedback collected so far. Special holiday meals will be scheduled for lunches as specified. ~ Food Services Team
Our annual Painted Lady Butterfly project will commence again this spring. We anticipate receiving our Painted Lady caterpillars during the last week of May. We will watch their transition from caterpillars to butterflies, and then release them into the garden park in early June. Stay tuned for details!
