Report from Kelly Green and Photos by Vuthy Hastings

Janine Lavarello, and sisters Kimberley and Janice Green held their joint birthday party in the Prince Philip Hall on the 20th September 2019, having been held over to coincide with the annual Agulhas II voyage. The Agulhas II brought home Kimberley, who now lives in England, and Janice, who has been studying in England. Their actual birthdays were earlier. Janine was 21 and Janice 18 in September, and Kimberley was 21 in June.

It was a lovely event with a fantastic dance held after the reception. Pictures below;
