With the nice weather and the ability to be outside, Watertown Families Together and Church of the Good Shepherd are trying to reinstate intergenerational programming with Brigham House in Watertown. Brigham HouseResidents of Brigham House enjoy the Teddy Bear Picnic.

Residents and families were treated to music with Ruth Rappaport, stories with Kathleen from the Watertown Library, yummy treats, crafts andsurprises.
The Brigham House assisted living community is housed in Watertown’s former East Junior High School. Residents of the Brigham House assisted living community in Watertown live in a historic building, but the century-plus old facility has gotten some sprucing up recently. The credit for the improvements to the Brigham House goes to some people new to their positions at the community, which is run by HallKeen Management. Wendy Nollman took over as executive director at the Brigham House in early April. She has already left her mark, said Tabitha Jones, sales specialist at HallKeen.

This school year, some of Watertown’s youngest students have added a new component to their curriculum—events with the town’s senior citizens. Preschool and elementary school students have trick-or-treated, performed a Thanksgiving play, listened to “Mrs. Mittens” read a winter story, and delivered valentines. With the Phillips School building (adjacent to the Senior Center) now being used for some preschool classes, the partnership was welcomed and convenient, said Karen Feeney, Watertown’s Early Childhood director. “We are thrilled to collaborate with our neighbors as a way to foster community. The seniors have so much fun and the students love it.
