Three members of the Hatfield Road Daycare group came to see the school art studios on April 25 and meet with students who were producing artwork for the project.
The guests included Sue Davey, coordinator of Daycare since its start in 1988, Brenda Quick who lives near the school, and Peggy Liffen, pictured with an artwork in progress by student Bethany.
The event coincided with Global Intergenerational Week, a worldwide celebration of interaction between the generations.
Cllr Anthony Rowlands, Mayor of St Albans, said: “We were thrilled to visit Samuel Ryder School’s Art Department, to meet the visitors from Hatfield Road Daycare group and to see the students’ work.
“The evident engagement between those present for this special occasion exemplifies what can be achieved by bringing together the generations.
“Congratulations to the students and teachers, to the Daycare group, to the district council officers and to the Anna Chaplaincy for making this happen.”
Artwork created by the students during the project will be highlighted at The Mayor’s Gala Reception on May 17.
The creative pieces will be included in an exhibition and a special event booklet.
