Mother and Children’s Party

On the 22nd June all the mothers and their children were invited to a fun party held at Jimmy Jungles in Fourways. This was to thank the mothers for their efforts in the new book and to include their children in this fun and carefree event. There were jumping castles, slides, tanks of balls and lots of other fun things for the kids to play on. The mothers had tea and cake and the children had goodie packs filled with sweets and chips. We also put sweets and chocolates on the tables for them. We were very fortunate to have 3 highly acclaimed face painters donate their time to the children. The children were ecstatic at having their faces painted like Spiderman, Batman, monsters, fairies and princesses. Everyone had great fun.

Mother’s Tea

On the 28th June, a tea party and debriefing session was held at the Park Hyatt for all the mothers who were interviewed in the book. The first part of the afternoon was a group debriefing with two social workers who were part of the interviewing process with Kim. It gave the mothers the opportunity to express how they were left feeling after their interview and how they were dealing with their emotions. It was an uplifting and moving session. After the debriefing the mothers were treated to a delicious high tea and a hand and Indian head massage from the girls of Shinzu Spa and Wellness Centre. Kim presented all the mothers with a certificate of appreciation, a throw rug, a Clarins gift and a voucher for R100 from Pick n Pay.
