February 2018 Update – Arts & Drawing Club Trip to Lake Malawi Museum

MOET pupils belong to different clubs of their choice according to their talents, interests and skills. MOET encourages this kind of extra-curricular activity because it can bring out the various talents hidden in children. The Arts and Drawing Club is one such club. During the month, the club, led by two teachers who are also a patron and a matron of the group, made a visit to the Lake Malawi Museum to see artistic artifacts being stored in them.

The Museum is found at Mangochi Boma. Therefore, apart from learning, the trip was also a refreshing change of scenery for many pupils that had never traveled that far before. Some of the artifacts seen were shakers, bangles, flutes, drums and a banjo. Some preserved animals like crocodiles, pythons, and monitor lizards were also seen.
