The promotion, which took place at Thaba Nchu Local schools, Albert Moroke Secondary; Tlotlanang Combined School; and St. Paul’s Primary School was a resounding success. The Sefala Lexicographers, Ms Mapule Molatisi and Mr Steven Dikgwele, along with the experiential learner, Mr Ofentse Seate, engaged with teachers, showcasing the benefits of using Setswana dictionaries in language learning. The team also provided demonstrations of how the dictionaries can be used to improve language skills, including reading, writing, and comprehension.

The promotion had a significant impact on the Thaba Nchu local schools. Setswana Teachers were excited to learn about the Setswana National Lexicography Unit (Sefala) and its products. Teachers appreciated the resources provided by Sefala Lexicographers, which will enable them to better support their leaners' language learning.

"The Setswana dictionary is a valuable resource that will help our learners improve their language skills," said Teacher N.J Moreki, a teacher at St. Paul’s Primary school. "We appreciate the efforts of Sefala Lexicographers in promoting the use of Setswana language resources.", she said.
