The House Committee’s recommendation that all evening entertainment should commence at 6:15 pm has been overruled, and the evening entertainment will continue to start at 6:00 pm.

A new washing machine has been installed in the laundromat for the residents’ convenience, and the second washing machine that is currently out of order will be attended to on receipt of the spares which are on order. Apologies for any inconvenience caused by this delay.

The Clinic Management has arranged for Clicks Musgrave Centre to facilitate Flu and Pneumonia Vaccines in the TV lounge from 9:15 am on Friday the 9th May and Monday the 12th May. Residents are required to complete the lists on the notice board by 10:00 am on Monday the 5th May to ensure we have sufficient stock. You will not need a doctor’s prescription for the Pneumonia Vaccine, should you request one.

The Clinic Trained staff kindly requests that residents do not leave their keys in their front door locks at night, as this would hinder emergency access should it be necessary.

Residents are advised to please familiarise themselves with the clinic service times and associated charges as per the updated notice on the board.

Residents that require walkers to assist with their mobility are reminded that walkers are not allowed in the dining room during meal times and have to be removed while they are having their meals.

The painting of the exterior of the Musgrave Block will commence on Monday the 5th May 2025 and is expected to take approximately six weeks to complete. Apologies in advance for any inconvenience that may be caused to the Musgrave Block residents during this period.

As per the Use Agreement, the company’s insurance policy covers all damages to the property except for the contents of individual apartments, which is the responsibility of each resident. Kindly ensure that your apartment contents are adequately insured.

Residents are advised that the pathways on the outer perimeter of the Currie Left Block and the Currie Right Block are Out of Bounds except for the garden and maintenance staff. The decision to restrict the access to this area is because some residents walking down these pathways have fallen and incurred serious injury.

The summer rains have filled the dams to capacity as can be seen in the list below of the levels of the dams that feed the greater Durban area. Notwithstanding the above, please continue to use this resource sparingly.

Albert Falls Dam – 103.46% Midmar Dam – 101.22% Inanda Dam – 104.35% Hazelmere Dam – 102.22%
