Namibia Publishing House Welcomes a Delegation from Macmillan UK, USA and SA

It was a very short trip for our colleagues from the Macmillan Headquarters in London, New York and Johannesburg, but they made it! The small group of delegates arrived in Windhoek on Thursday morning and left for Johannesburg on Saturday.

Despite their short stay, all Namibia Publishing House staff had the pleasure to meet: Craig Bauer, Jane Carlin, Emma Bourne, Mandla Balisa, Brett Basel and Antra Medne.

The purpose of the visit was to familiarise NPH staff with the changes that took place within the Macmillan Group and to introduce new members of the Macmillan team that will be based in the region.

We would like to thank our visitors for taking time off their schedules to make the trip to Namibia and meet us. It was a pleasure to have you here.

Results of the 2014 Junior Primary Materials Submissions are out at last!

It was a long journey for all of us here at NPH, starting with the authors, editors, publishers and designers and ending with all of us together cramped in our offices till wee hours to meet the deadline.

It was stressful, but we handled it well. Thanks to the management who was ever so supportive. We all united in the common goal to supply Namibian schools with quality materials that will help elevate the standard of education in our country and implement the New Curriculum set up by NIED.

What a relief it was to see the bakkie leaving with the materials for evaluation.
