Africa-Press<\/a> – Lesotho<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>The Lesotho Association of Teachers (LAT) in partnership with Canada\u2019s Ontario Federation of Teachers (OTF) handed over two cheques amounting to M4000 each to Leqele and Lithabaneng High<\/p>\n

School students who are performing well in Volleyball and Chess. The handover took place at Leqele High School premises yesterday. Speaking at the event LAT<\/p>\n

Secretary General Letsatsi Ntsibolane indicated that the funds were sought by LAT from OTF for payment of examination and school fees for the two students,<\/p>\n

namely Bokang Motsamai from Leqele High and Molefi Mot\u0161oanakaba from Lithabaneng High school. The duo were chosen based on their best performance, dedication to sports and their aspiration to become teachers.<\/p>\n

Ntsibolane further made it clear that this was the start of the many initiatives they will embark on in the future. The Ministry of Education and Training (MoET) Principal Secretary (PS) Dr Lira Khama uttered words of gratitude<\/p>\n

to LAT for their partnership with OTF, which has proved to be fruitful. He also said it has been about 20 years since the MoET launched free primary education<\/p>\n

but the rate of financial need is still high at secondary schools and soon the Minister will launch the roadmap of how secondary and high school students will<\/p>\n

be assisted. Dr Khama congratulated the two students and said their good deeds in sports have indeed paid off. Lithabaneng High School Principal Sephunyane Leboea thanked this partnership which has offered a<\/p>\n

helping hand to the two schools. He further urged other students to work hard and be dedicated to their studies and talents. On behalf of beneficiaries,<\/p>\n

Bokang Motsamai expressed gratefulness to the donors. Motsamai advised other students to play chess like he does, not only for pleasure or recognition but to<\/p>\n

learn problem solving skills. Moreover, Motsamai pressed on the issue of confidence to his peers and promised to keep working hard so that he does not let down the donors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
