Happy New Year!
EVENTS
Sesotho Weekends in Morija
Morija Guest Houses will be hosting TWO “Introduction to Sesotho Language and Culture Weekends” at the start of 2014 to satisfy the high demand at this time of year. The first one will be from 24th to 26th January 2014 and the second one from 21st to 23rd February 2014. Aimed particularly at people newly-arrived in Lesotho, the weekends enable participants to gain confidence when attempting to speak Sesotho, to acquire useful knowledge of Lesotho's history and Basotho culture, and generally to feel more comfortable in their new situation. The language learning sessions are not intensive as the emphasis is on ensuring participants feel encouraged, not overwhelmed. In between the language sessions, we have discussions on culture and we go for hikes to explore the beautiful environment. Children are welcome and will be kept happily occupied during the language sessions. You can see the programme and the rates on www.morijaguesthouses.com (in the Special Events section). To register for either weekend (Jan. or Feb.), or for further information, please contact Brigitte Hall soon on bcat...@mweb.co.za
