Teddy Bear Hospital for kinder students…

Hospital01The Malta Medical Students Association visited our school to organise an activity with our Kinder pupils.  The pupils were introduced to medical equipment such as the stetoscope and temperature and were encouraged to use it on their teddy bears.  The aim of this activity was to familiarize pupils with the medical equipment used by the medical doctor.

Later on the pupils were shown hand washing techniques.  The pupils were helped to wash their hands properly to get rid of germs which were represented by glitter!!! The MMSA students took ample time to help our pupils wash their hands properly.

Robin Feeder…

The Kinder 1.2 students of Ms Joanne Galea are working in full force for the Dinja Waħda project. A few days ago the students were informed about the migration of robins and they made a beautiful collage.

Ms Galea took this activity one step further. She made a robin feeder using a sieve (thus recycling material). This feeder was then hung in the school garden under one of our trees. Some pieces of apple were left in the feeder for birds to find food.

Believe it or not., when Ms Galea finished the lesson, a robin visited her class and stood on the windowsill. The children were so happy to see this robin 🙂

Maths Workshops for Year 1 students…

Math01On 3rd December 2014, the year 1 students of Ms Marilyn Bugeja and Ms Louise Cutajar, together with their LSAs, Ms Josephine Galea and Ms Anna Cassar had a great day fun packed with maths workshops.

These workshops were coordinated by Ms Joanne Vella, Maths Support Teacher. The workshops consisted of a number of stations. In every station students participated in games which involved mathematical thinking skills, reasoning skills and creative arts skills.

The students had a whale of a time and look forward for more. Thank you to all for making this yet another successful event for our students’ learning experience 🙂

It’s that time of the year again…

Novena Day1December – an important month for us Christians… It reminds of the birth of Our Lord Jesus Christ. During this month we remember the hardships Mary and Joseph had to face and the poor circumstances in which the Lord chose to be born. It is a time of reflection about the important things in life – not material ones, but spiritual ones.

Novena Day2

Students are encouraged to prepare a special assembly in a run up for Christmas. This special assembly is spread over 9 days, hence it is called the novena. During these assemblies the students, under the direction of their teachers and LSAs, and with the help of Ms Borg Vella, assistant head, the students explore moral values and issues which remind us of love, peace and generosity.

Novena Day3

This is also an opportunity for students to sing Christmas carols, to animate our morning assemblies and to enhance their self-esteem. Merry Christmas to all 🙂
