MADONNA JETS OUT OF MALAWI

US pop star Madonna jetted out of Malawi today ending a five-day trip which included laying a foundation stone for a new girls school, an airport official said.

The singer who was accompanied by her biological children Rocco and Lourdes and her other two children whom she adopted in Malawi flew out of Kamuzu international Airport on a private jet bound for London, the official said.

She has built a multi-purpose community centre 50km from Lilongwe which looks after more than 8000 orphans.

Last night Madonna, accompanied by Lourdes and adopted daughter Mercy 'Chifundo' James, visited the centre where a local band and a choir serenaded the pop star and villagers thanked her for her help.
