Residents relaxed into the evening with a movie night out at the Rest Ur Ass donkey Sanctuary in Honeydew on December 9. With camp chairs, picnic blankets and very well-behaved evening weather, families and friends got ready to unwind and enjoy the animation movie, The Star.

Lloreen le Roux, who owns the sanctuary with her husband said, “This is a fundraiser to help pay for Grace’s surgery. Grace is one of our recent rescues. The surgery was R56 000 and we have raised most of it. The movie we will be watching is a Christmas movie about the birth of Jesus, but it is from the perspective of the animals. It’s really nice for the children and with Covid, it is really nice for people to get out and be in the fresh air.”

The movie nights ran from December 8 to 10. Gates opened at 17:00 and people could roam and interact with the donkeys before the movie started at 19:00.

Lungile Madela, who was in attendance said she looked forward to the evening and enjoying the open air. “We attended something similar in Cape Town so I am really looking forward to this one. I love being outside and I love the open air. Overall this is going to be a good experience for us.”
