The halls of RFBI Armidale Masonic Village were recently filled with laughter and the warmth of intergenerational connection as residents welcomed a group of wonderful students from NEGS (New England Girls’ School) for a delightful afternoon visit.

These regular visits are a cornerstone of our community engagement program, providing invaluable social connection for the residents and fostering mutual understanding between young people and our elders.

The students spent the afternoon chatting with residents, sharing stories and spreading cheer. To celebrate the occasion, our Armidale team prepared a beautiful cake, which was the centrepiece of a joyful afternoon tea.

RFBI Armidale Masonic Village extends its heartfelt thanks to the students and staff of NEGS for taking the time to visit and brighten the lives of the residents. We are incredibly proud of our partnership and look forward to many more visits in the future!
