Tarentaal residents celebrated the retirement village’s 36th anniversary in true 80s style on June 6.
In 1988, on June 1, the first resident moved into the Rand Aid Association retirement village after phase one of the village, consisting of 192 units, including 48 with one bedroom and 144 studio apartments, was complete.
Phase two, completed in 1996, saw another 108 units being built.
“We chose the Rubik’s Cube as one of our main props and decor for our birthday celebration because although it was invented earlier, it only became popular in the 80s,” says Tarentaal’s manager Tammy Neilson.
“Our residents thoroughly enjoyed the celebration and spending quality time together,” she adds.
