Linking Lives have been making great progress with the building of their Pre-School in Ha Simone. The school building should be finished around September; funding is still required for electricity and toilets.

One of their other projects, the Dinosaur Footprints Riverbank Site is gaining momentum. The path to the River has been cleared making for easier access to the site. Signposts should by now have been erected on the main Leribe Butha-Buthe road for motorists. Petros Makibi of Linking Lives in Lesotho (now called Linking Lives Association) has discovered some exciting newly exposed dinosaur prints further along the river bed because of the low level of the water in the Subeng River. Stephen Gill, Curator of Morija Museum is interested in these finds and the site will be investigated by the experts in the coming months. We hope to shortly have an entry in the official guide books for Dinosaur sites as many visitors do find this site - 'with little knowledge and little maps'. With local Community Council approval, we will shortly be erecting a fence around the riverbank site. A tree-planting project has just been launched within Bedfordshire Schools. It is hoped that later on, the riverbank site will be developed to become a traditional Basotho village site for tourists.

Linking Lives hosted a conference in March. Linking Lives' Patron Prince Seeiso could not attended but Mr Nena and 'Matholang Khasake from the Lesotho HC in London represented him and are shown in the photograph with Janice Evans, the Vice Chairman of Linking lives and Annette Glenn, Chairman.
