LOVELY DAYS IN SCOTLAND
It is time to pack up and go back to Malawi. We are very grateful indeed to the St Matthews Community for their love for us.
Just to list a few things that we shall not forget in our lives:
1. The 12 of us flew together from Malawi to Scotland. The experinces in the flight, the love we had for each other, the smiles etc deminished the gap that exist amongst us at home. We hope this way of living shall continue. Our trip has united us more than ever. We thank God for this.
2. Upon landing in Glasgow, we were welcomed with a lot of smiles and we experienced a lot of love. We forgot that we were away from home. Scotland is the warm Herat of Europe just as we are the warm Heart of Africa.
3 The visitations around school brought a lot of amazement in me. I could not believe my eyes at first. The varrying sizes of students in the dining hall. The nu,erous students etc. I toook as many pictures as possible to remeber this.
4 The different places we heard about in history and Geography while in Malwi: Blantyre, Scotland, Edinburgh et were not historical any more. We actually set our feet there. We were privileged to visit the parliament, huge and magnificent indeed. I have not been in the malwi Hous of Parliament. This one is so memorable for me because it is the first one. we followed a very heated debate whereby the First Minister was clarifying some issues on some hard questions. It was a great honor for me to be present in the house on that day.
5. I also visited Glasgow Centre. I can not just explain how splendid the buildings are. they are built on stone, great work of art and a lot of engineering work. It was lovely indeed. I also had a chance to visit the famous Celtic Club ground. I also saw the seat of Rod Stewart, so lovely indeed.
In short, we enrished our eyes wiith so many things difficulkt to explai.
If I had the power to appeal to the Malawi Government, I would ask the president to put a lot of preference in Education for the young Malawians. The facilities that are here inScotland in schools can also be made available to Malawians. It just needs a serious mind to consider the good of all Malawians.
In Tumbuka we say, " Kusambira kukumala yayi" meaning education will also be there to help us. We have just learnt alot.
God bless our partneship between Scotland and malawi. We are really blessed to be here.

THE WONDERFUL TIMES
It is lovely to be here. each dya is bringing different lovely experince in this Warm Heart of the World. We meet smiles and love in each and every corner we visit.
Today I had good times with priests at St Mary's Parish. The christian community at mass and their love for me spoke volumes and volumes of the warmth the world should give to a stranger. It was lovely indeed.
I also had a chance to get a free eye test. as I say I shall go back to Malawi with better sight. What an experience indeed. My eyes were faulty, a thing I knew ofcourse but never cared to do something about them. Today and on, I shall be able to see better.
What else can wes do to the Lord for his Goodness to Us! The only response is Thank You God for make us partners. We are able to experience things we never imagined before.
Once again, thank you everything.

It's Kingstone again I had not finished. I am very thankful to them for providing transport for us. We had a very good journey. Now we are having a great experience. Here in Scotland we are enjoying with them for playing bowling. I would like to encourage all my fellow students who are on bursary to work hard in class. Because to find fees is very difficult. It is better to work hard for them to be interested so there fees are not misused. Here in Scotland we are enjoying with our fellow students of St Matthew's Academy. The students are very friendly. We are chatting with them very well. St Peter's also have very friendly students. Today at night we are going to see snow which I am very interested to see. Thank you to everyone in Scotland and Malawi. (Monire mose)

Here we are in Scotland!
It has been a pleasure for us, 12 Malawians to travel to Scotland. We had a very wonderful trip to this new home. I travelled with students and teachers who had not been on the aeroplane before.. It was an adventure I tell you!
I would like to express my heartfelt thanks on behalf of the St Peter's visitors.
We also recived a very wonderful welcome at the airport. We were amazed at seeing so mnay friends waiting for us. I actually felt vvery shy because we never did this in Malawi. I hope you will understand us because the distances to the airport would not allow us.
Wher I am, at the house of the Headmaster, Eric Allan, I have also been welcomed very well. I have already forgotten where I came from. It is so lovely and nice. As my prayer, I say God be blessed.
