On the last day of autumn, Thembalami and Max Ordman Deaf Association residents spent a meaningful family day with their loved ones.
While family and friends are encouraged to visit as often as they can, a family day is organised each month for residents and their visitors to socialise in a festive setting. Light meals and tea and coffee are sold.
At August’s event, vetkoek with mince was enjoyed by all.
