Our 2007 presentation “De Journey NOW Start†is one of remembrance.
It takes us through various stages of slavery. These stages are the roots of slavery, the benefactors from its existence, the impact that it had on not just the slaves but history itself and finally the joyous celebration in recognition of the achievements of these slaves and their descendants.

SOUTH CONNECTIONS says a hearty thank you to our Designer, Masqueraders, Stewards, Production Team, Helpers, DJ Team, Sound System Engineers, Drivers & Sponsors who all contributed towards the grand success of our 2007 presentation "De Journey NOW Start". We came 2nd in the Children's category & 3rd in the Adult's category for Notting Hill Carnival 2007, so well done to all those involved!! We could have done even better if we were able to get to the judging zone before night fall!! Hopefully the problem with long unnecessary hold-ups will be resolved for next year 2008 as we come even bigger & better, bringing beautiful and enjoyable Mas with great jump-up road music to the streets of Notting Hill! Once again many thanks & well done to all SC members who contributed!
Look out for South Connections at the London New Year's Day Parade!!
