During April our longest serving regular colour sorter celebrated her 94th birthday! Jean still gets through a heap of tags each week. We have three ladies over 90 as well as several others sorting for us at home. In Adelaide, the Transition to Work program at Sunedin Special School and The Wirreanda Secondary School’s Adaptive Vocational Education program also sort for us, as well as the (self named!) Old Codgers group at Glynde Lutheran Homes. In Melbourne, Phillip and Linda sort at home and in Perth Dianella Secondary College Education Support Centre and Aveley Secondary College do our bulk colour sorting. Quite a team!
