From the Sentebale blog: Sentebale is a charity founded by Prince
Harry and Prince Seeiso of Lesotho. They help the most vulnerable
children in Lesotho get the support they need to lead healthy and
productive lives. Sentebale works with local grassroots organisations
to help these children – the victims of extreme poverty and Lesotho’s
HIV/AIDS epidemic.
On 5th December, Prince Harry made a private visit to Lesotho to see the progress of Sentebale's programmes that provide support to vulnerable children in Lesotho.
Prince Harry swings young boy in photo taken by a blind 3 year old at Phelisanong Children’s Home. 'Wow, what a welcome we got! There were forty over-energetic children using us as climbing frames, water fights, and a lot of laughs. The boy flying is Lerato, a 3 year old who was abandoned at birth. The photo was taken by 3 year old Karabo who is blind. She heard the clicks, went to the camera and with a little bit of help on direction, shot this great photo.' Chris Jackson/Getty Images
Prince Harry wears Christmas hats with orphans from Mants’ase Children’s Home. 'Festive cheer! Despite it being 32 degrees, someone gave out Christmas hats and inevitably one found its way onto my head. All the children, orphaned for one reason or another, absolutely loved the hats and balloons. We even managed to squeeze a hat onto Prince Seeiso’s head! Again, so nice to see the place so well looked after.' Chris Jackson/Getty Images
Thumbs up with Prince Harry and the Head Teacher, Me Mamonuku Mokfilikoane of Thuso Centre. 'The playground and ramps in this photo were made by 30 members of the British Army. Blood, sweat and tears went into the project over two weeks. The whole place looks incredible, the children are all smiles. Thanks lads.' Chris Jackson/Getty Images
Prince Harry plays with babies who are on a programme for malnourishment at Touching Tiny Lives. 'After seeing the herd boys, we were invited back to Touching Tiny Lives in the town of Mokhotlong. There were 12 malnourished babies under the age of five that we were fortunate enough to play with for an hour. I will never forget their faces when we walked in. They only ever see and interact with women, so it took a while till they accepted us into their play pen! An enormous hail storm then hit us and two of the children had their faces pressed up against the window for about 15 minutes. These two in the picture were definitely my favourites.'

Prince Harry's Pictures: Speaking of the opportunity to document the visit himself, Prince Harry said: 'I have always enjoyed photography and the challenges that come with trying to capture the perfect shot, although privately I don't take many photos. The best photos I have are in my head - I have some very special memories, mostly from Africa. But on this visit, I had the time and opportunity to be on the other side of the camera and take some photos in the stunning country of Lesotho for my charity Sentebale.' ©HRH Prince Henry of Wales.
