The Emblem

The school emblem then went through a slight change, adopting the words “Salesians Malamulele”, as a way of expressing the Salesian educative method, created by Saint John Bosco (a worldwide renowned priest and educator) based on Reason, Religion and Loving Kindness, lived in a Family Spirit Environment.

Academically, the School was going up to Grade 7, by then. At the end of 2012, Sister Lidia Castro was transferred.

From January 2013, Sister Maria Isabel Vieira, a Salesian Sister as well, was appointed as School Principal.

From almost Term 3, 2013, a Nursery School started for little babies, in the Babies’ Nest area, with only a few babies, from 3 months old to 3 years. This was a need in order to respond to some poor and young children, mainly from the Village and surroundings, whose grandmothers (including the school cleaners from the Village) had to come/go to work and had nobody to leave the babies with. Some of those small babies had their mothers still schooling in Malamulele and surroundings. The school started giving them full meals throughout the day.

In January 2014, due to the request of many parents, the School introduced Grade 8. Classroom rearrangements had to be done and a new Library was built that same year.

From 2015, Grade 9 was introduced.

The number of learners has been growing gradually and parents have been requesting the School, desperately, to proceed up to Grade 12, as well as to open a Boarding School.
