LIFE HEALTH CARE
The playground has been extended by the purchase of an additional jungle gym which was sponsored by the Occupational Health Division of Life Health Care. The increase in the number of younger children has brought about a need for more of this type of recreational equipment. Mention must also be made of Benches who are the suppliers of this equipment who at their own expense upgraded the existing playground equipment.
MIDDELBURG COUNTRY CLUB
A large amount of bed linen, towels, pillows and curtains was donated to the Care Village by the Management of the Middelburg Country Club. This donation was made possible by the replacement of linen in the lodge of the golf club and could not have come at a more opportune time with the admission of additional children in need of care. On the photo two of the housekeeping staff members of the Care Village can be seen with part of the donation.
THE RIDGE
The Ridge Entertainment Resort once again visited the Care Village and presented each of the children with their own hygiene packet containing toiletries, vitamins and other items. The children who had birthdays during February also each received a gift from The Ridge. Each of the children and care givers (house parent) present also received chocolate and a piece of cake to celebrate the occasion. The Management of The Ridge used this opportunity to visit the newly renovated house which they had helped to furnish and to spend time with the children during lunch time.
ROTARY CANADA
On the attached photo Chris Das representing a number of Canadian Rotary Clubs can be seen handing over a cheque to the manager of the Care Village, Colin Hasses as mentioned in a previous article to sponsor a training course for a large number of care givers.
