Update: Daelani makes Orewa Primary School talent show final
Hi neighbours - In July we told the story of blind sisters Tayla and Daelani Marsters, who were excelling in their piano lessons thanks to kind Neighbourly member Christine Collins, who donated them her piano. I'm thrilled to let you all know Daelani recently made it to the finals of the Orewa Primary School talent show! The sisters' piano teacher Ruth Goodenough is beaming with pride for her students, who are both doing very well with their music.
