Dear Dr Gandhi,
May I take this opportunity to congratulate City Montessori
School on being awarded the UNESCO Prize for Peace Education
2002. This is well deserved bearing in mind the way in which
the school, over the years, promoted education in this field,
also by means of high profiled Conferences addressed by
experts on this subject. I am most happy that your good
work was rewarded in this way.
May I also thank you for your kind invitation, extended
to me, to attend the coming international conference on
the 6th to 8th December. Unfortunately I must yet again
inform you that it is impossible for me to attend the Conference.
I wish you well with your endeavors. I am sure that the
standard, as always, will be of the highest order and that
those who attend the Conference will leave there inspired
with what they have learned. I am also sure that the international
acknowledgment that you have received for your work will
serve as an inspiration to continue with your quest.
I am
Yours sincerely
G.J.C. STRYDOM
CHIEF JUSTICE OF THE REPUBLIC OF NAMIBIA
