MALET LAMBERT TRANSITION MAGAZINE: CAVENDISH EDITION 03 Amazing Malet Lambert! By Alex Cavanaugh & Sam Killelay We talked to Ben who is a student at Malet Lambert. We asked him what he thought about the school and he said; “Malet Lambert is good for making friends and the most popular class is technology.” When we asked him why a lot of people like technology he said it is because you get to use all sorts of different equipment like drills, glue guns and lots of other things. Malet Lambert has recently received a makeover with a brand new cafeteria, a fantastic new open space, a new P.E. building and an awesome Astroturf pitch. I know because I’ve been told that Malet Lambert is a great school for having a good P.E. department. Malet Lambert looks like quite an artistic school because they have some enormous models such as Transformers, Avatar and other movie figures.
