The Madeline Robertson Trust was set up by friends of Madeline Robertson.  Every year the Trustees, on the recommendation of the school’s headmaster, make and Endeavour Award to a pupil of Musikili Primary School in memory of Madeline Robertson.  This award is given for exemplary scholastic endeavour, reflecting the challenges met by Madeline in her lifetime and her many achievements.  The Trust also supports the school by donating musical instruments, science equipment and sports equipment.  The Trust relies on donations made by individuals and would appreciate it if some of our Old Pupils could give something back.

Joanna Atkins

After Musikili I went to Arundel in Harare for my O levels, then to Sunny Hill,  Bruton College for Girls in Somerset (Uk) for my A levels. I’m currently doing my Masters Degree in Art History with the specialization in contemporary art at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam and hoping to be finished in October this year.  I'm enjoying Holland but am missing the wonderful weather and the community spirit of Mazabuka. Well hopefully Emma ( my niece) will have as much enjoyment at Musikili as I did.

I'm Anita Lermer, class of '93.

I live in Marquartstein Southern Bavaria, Germany. I did Hotel Management and have been working in the business ever since.

Hello!

Our names are Nicole and Daniela Massolini. We were twins from Musikili primary school a few years ago. I would just like to give a HUGE shout out to all my boarding school mates and all my teachers that taught me in the past. A special hello to Granny Apple, Miss Brittan and Mr Illman. We moved to Australia in 2003 and we are absolutely loving it here! Must admit it gets very hot. We are both 16 and are currently finishing Grade 10 and going into Grade 11 in a few weeks. I've started a small job at McDonalds and Nicole has started a small job at a restaurant called 'Hogs Breath Cafe'. We've settled in very quickly and made lost of new friends. We are both going to start a course to earn some certificates for our future careers. Nicole wants to become a wildlife carer and I would like to become an Interior Decorator and Designer. Would really love to contact a few Musikili friends so e-mail us sometime and let us know all your news.

Cheers

Daniela and Nicole

Hello,

This is Bwembya, class of '99. I'm currently in Canada in my first year of university (University of Manitoba) and studying real hard to  make it into the faculty of Management and major in Accounting and Finance. I sure miss the good old days when I was back at Musikili.

I remember one or two of my teachers, Mr & Mrs Illman, Mrs Illman taught me how to play tennis and she would be pleased to know that I still play tennis and I'm still pretty good at it, Mr Illman was my grade 7 teacher.

If I'll be living in Zambia when I have my children, Musikili is the best primary school I can think of.

This goes out to class of '99, Pamela, Karen, Kayembe, Monde, Lara, Erica, Bradley, Ben, Lulu, Katrina, Poonam, Sasha, Hema, Becky, Stephanie, Neil, Malcolm, I wish I could call out all the names but if I left anybody out who was in my class, this goes out to you too, we need to have a reunion! I love you guys and miss you tons, I hope we'll get to meet again. God Bless....

Hello there, just a quick email praising your Musikili website!

I spent approximately five wonderful months at Musikili as a GAP student between September 2002 and March 2003, and recently stumbled across your website whilst absent-mindedly dreaming of Zambia and searching for cheap flights back there!  I suspect finding the website has done nothing to curb my enthusiasm for returning to Zambia, I utterly fell in love with the place and the people during my fairly life-changing visit.  I have heard from friends that Zambia is constantly changing, particularly Lusaka, and it seems Musikili is the same, not least with a change of headmaster since my time there.

It is so wonderful being able to keep up with the busy life of the Musikili staff and students through your website, my only request would be for more photos! Anyway, thanks again, and keep up the good work! Maybe one day I'll be able to come back to visit and see it for myself. 

Kind regards to all at Musikili,

Jo Britton
