Singing in the rain on Purim

The Chevrah Kadisha opened its gates to the community for the first time in almost a year last Friday, 26 February, for the Greatest Purim Drive-Thru. A total of 750 cars drove through the safe Purim spectacular, with more than 2 500 people watching the 50 acts and attractions along the route.

These included live bands, acrobats and trapeze artists, dancers and jugglers, clowns, and many more who continued to perform through the rain.

Spoiled for choice and not knowing where to look next, many children convinced their parents to do the Drive-Thru multiple times. Residents on the campus who have been under lockdown for almost 12 months watched from the safe distance of their balconies.
