A very interesting scheme has been officially launched by BDL and the National Literacy Agency with the aim of encouraging students to read more books. The Minister of Education, the Honourable Evarist Bartolo, attended the ceremony.
The Kindergarten students welcomed the Minister of Education in the school foyer with a lively song and then presented him with a painting that was prepared by the students themselves under the guidance of Ms Joanne Galea, Kindergarten Assistant.
The year 3 students sang the song, Books Are Fun, followed by a play, Il-Gost tal-Qari prepared by the year 2.1 students of Ms Janice Vella Muscat. Later a new book written and illustrated by Ms Angele Haber, Learning Support Assistant, was presented to the school. BDL representatives, sponsoring this new scheme, explained that students will be given a one euro voucher for a every library book they read. These vouchers can be exchanged for books at any BDL outlet.
The school would like to extend its gratitude to Mr David Muscat, Chairperson of the National Literacy Agency, for choosing our school to launch this new scheme.
