Design a Christmas card!
Would you like to take part in designing Christmas cards that will be sold to support the Malealea cause?

If so, you need to be a student at City School, sorry to all you budding artists outside of City School. There will be two classes, Key stage 3 (Year 7, 8 & 9) and Key stage 4 (Year 10 & 11).

Entries can be made of any material, as long as we are able to scan them in. You can hand them into school to either Mr. Jowett or Mrs. Milory in the library or email it to cards@malealea.org.uk no later than 4p.m. on Friday 22nd September 2006

The theme for this year is "An African Christmas". So you might like to paint a scheme of Malealea in December or draw a picture of children celebrating. Look out for ideas around school.

Good Luck!

HRH Prince Seeiso Bereng Seeiso

In the evening, at a meeting attended by parents as well as students, certificates were presented to commerate the work of the expedition.

A message of appreciation and gratitude from Lebohang Ramohlanka, the High Commissioner of Lesotho.
Dear Mr Dunn,

Thank you very much for your letter of February, 2005.

I would, first of all, like to express my sincere appreciation and gratitude on behalf of the government and people of Lesotho, for the wonderful work that the South Yorkshire community has done and plans to do for the people of Malealea.

Over the years I have come to realise that the best form of assistance is one that goes directly to the most disadvantaged members of the society, via the people to people superhighway. For meaningful and lasting results, such assistance has to empower the local community to engage new knowledge and skills to exploit the available resources and improve their lives. The South Yorkshire-Malealea Link is one such undertaking. I am therefore convinced that it will transform communities in ways never before imagined...............

With my very best wishes

Yours sincerely

Lebohang Ramohlanka

High Commissione

An award!
The Expedition has been awarded The 2005 Sir Vivian Fuchs Expedition Award.
