Tarentaal retirement village resident Maria Ferencz is not only keeping busy during the coronavirus lockdown, but she is also bringing smiles to anxious faces. She attached face masks to two hippo statues which never fails to lift the spirits of people enjoying their morning exercise. Maria has also used rock art to create a topical feature outside the village office.
