‘Explorer House of Wodensborough High School, Wednesbury
...have for the past ten years given a party for the residents of Portway House’
‘Portway House is a halfway home where people with special problems are helped to be able to take their place in society’
‘Parents send food which is prepared in Home Economics during the afternoon’

We see children making sandwiches, setting up tables etc. kids voice-overs describe the action. Images of children posing with the homeless guests are edited in. Elderly guests arrive in a van, helped off by the teenagers. The children chat at tables with the guests. Young girl does magic tricks; bingo. A man stands up, thanks everybody and starts a singalong if ‘Oh come all ye faithful’
