For the first time since 2019, when Covid shut things down, Astra Centre was again able to host their much-anticipated annual braai for workers and their guests. 

This year, the braai took place on Sunday 26 February at Herzlia High School’s middle campus  hall — a change of venue from Alon Ashel where it had been held in previous years. Steve Sherman (aka Mr S, Chief Imagination Officer of Living Maths) entertained the crowd with ‘magic’ tricks and a few rounds of Bingo that had all present fully engaged. After a hearty lunch, in keeping with previous years’ protocol, Michael Ipp recited one of his amazing original poems, and Charles Brand thanked all involved for a truly enjoyable event. 

The event reflected the culture of purpose and dignity that Astra Centre achieves by acknowledging  each of their clients’ unique talents and strengths.
