Collington Park Lodge, set to open soon in Bexhill-on-Sea, was filled with joy and laughter this week as children from Little Common Primary School visited to bury their very own time capsules.
In a special event designed to connect the care home to the local community, pupils arrived with their capsules filled with carefully chosen items, reflections, and hopes for the future. The capsules are now buried on the grounds of Collington Park Lodge, where they will remain for the next 50 years – ready to be unearthed when the children are in their sixties.
Following the ceremony, the children enjoyed a festive Easter treat and settled in to watch Horrible Histories in the home’s dedicated cinema room, showcasing one of the many state-of-the-art amenities residents and visitors alike can look forward to.
Bianca Wilson, General Manager at Collington Park Lodge, said:
“It was such a joy to welcome the children from Little Common Primary School to Collington Park Lodge. Their excitement, creativity, and enthusiasm made the day incredibly special. This event reflects exactly what we hope to build here – a strong, positive connection with the local community and opportunities for meaningful intergenerational engagement. We look forward to welcoming them back again soon.”
Set in the heart of Bexhill-on-Sea, Collington Park Lodge is a brand-new, purpose-built care home offering residential, dementia and respite care. The home features en-suite bedrooms, landscaped gardens, a bistro, hair salon, cinema room, library, and even a stylish Sky Bar—designed to deliver both comfort and connection. With opening just around the corner, the team is looking forward to welcoming new residents into a warm and vibrant home where individual wellbeing is at the heart of everything.
