THE happiness was infectious at St Joseph’s Primary School Coleraine last Wednesday when the students decorated pot plants to give to the residents at Wannon Hostel and Valley View Nursing Home.

The day saw students from all year levels use bright textas to decorate cardboard flower pots that they then put a plant in and gave to the elderly members of their community.
