For our final day of 1st term 2024, we had lots of fun and laughter, dressing up 'wacky' and taking turns on the jumping castle and having faces painted!

The staff came up with ways to ‘treat’ the children at the end of the school year. We had two parties going on at the same time- the Spa party was for the children who require lots of help physically, and the Colour Party was for the able-bodied children. Much fun and laughter, full tummies and many memories!
This event is one that will forever be remembered by children, staff and parents. We spent much time practising songs, decorating t-shirts, and working out the logistics of getting the whole of Pathways (school and Young Adult Group) to Westville Senior Primary School for two performances of this beloved play: The Gigantic Star! It was a huge blessing for WSPS to let us use their school hall, and to have their students come and watch ours. The parent support was also amazing. We are excited to continue this tradition in 2024!

These are just a few of the ‘happenings’ at the Young Adults Group. They participate in making meals and sharing them; art and craft activities; domestic work; physiotherapy and fun, social gatherings. Linda van Heerden is now leading this team of staff and happy young adults!
Our Young Adults have been working towards a ‘voting day’ practice, making ballot cards and boxes and signs. Today was the day!
