Marathon Walk 2014
On Tuesday 29th April 2014 the school embarked on a Marathon Walk. The children had been given sponsor sheets with the aim of collecting funds for the school council.
This Marathon Walk was linked to Science Fieldwork which was co-ordinated by the science teacher, Ms Charmaine Mifsud, together with the class teachers.
Year 3 to year 6 students were stopped at Dingli, near the football pitch. From there they walked approximately 4km to Buskett. On arriving at Buskett the students were given a 30 minute break, followed by a 45 minute field work session. Students learnt about various leaves, temperature readings in the shade and in the sun light, insects and other interesting things related to Science and Technology. The students then walked back to Dingli, following a shorter route. The students covered another 3.7km in 45 minutes.
The Kinder 1 to Year 2 students were dropped at Buskett. They had their fieldwork which was adapted by the class teachers according to their age. Ms Portelli and Ms Schembri joined us in the venture to give an extra helping hand.
Well done to the students and members of staff for making this yet another successful event. The school takes the opportunity to thank all parents for this noble cause.
Annual Exams 2014
Below is the timetable for the Annual Exams June 2014 for year 4, 5 and 6:
UEFA Art Competition
On Friday 25th April 2014, a judge from the Malta Football Association visited our school to judge the display of the children’s art work with the theme “Respect in Sport”. Our students drew different works of art which were displayed on two school notice boards by Ms Rodgers and Ms Said.
The judge was accompanied by Mr Mark Attard, head of media department, the national coach and 3 players of the Maltese National team (U17) and their sport pyschologist.
All the visitors were impressed with the art work presented by our students. We now await judgement. So good luck to our students. The coach commented about the fact that in our school team work is evident.
The players and the coach met our year 4 students who were doing a PE lesson with Mr Steve Borg, who happens to be a player of the Valletta Football Team. (We take this opportunity to congratulate him and his team on winning the National Championship). The coach and players joined the students and played together for a short while. The students had the opportunity to ask, the players and coach, some questions about their career in football.
The visitors signed our visitors book. We would like to thank the UEFA and MFA for this opportunity.
All photographs were taken by Mr Joe Borg, the official MFA photographer.
WasteServ and Batterina…
On 10th April 2014 Batterina, the WasteServ mascot visited our school. The aim was to make our students aware of the harm done to the environment when batteries are not disposed of in battery bins.
Representatives from WasteServ visited the year 4, 5 and 6 classes and presented workshops and information to our students about the importance of Reducing, Reusing and Recycling. This event was organised in liaison with the Mgarr Local Council and WasteServ.
Let’s work together for a cleaner and healthier environment 🙂
Easter Greetings
Greetings from all the staff at Mgarr Primary.
Happy Easter 🙂
Ambaxxaturi tal-Qari…
4th April 2014 was a special day for our school. Special guests visited our school as “reading ambassadors”. The aim of this event was to promote reading. The school officially launched its first issue of the school magazine, Mit-Tfal… Għat-Tfal…
Ganni and Corazon, together with the Permanent secretary, Mr Joseph Caruana, Ms Coleiro, Mr David Muscat and Mr Sammut, the college principal, visited our school with a very important mission in mind – that of promoting reading.
The event kicked off with a brief introduction of the student council members and school council members who were introduced to our distinct guests. The students took the opportunity to present the first copy of the school magazine to the permanent secretary. Mr Caruana presented Corazon and Ganni with an official certification acknowledging them as reading ambassadors.
The guests were ushered to the year 1 and year 2 classes for reading sessions to begin. Meanwhile the permanent secretary, Mr Joseph Caruana, was kind enough to visit all the classrooms and have a chat with our members of staff and students.
A special guest, Mikiel (Agenda’s reading mascot) visited our classrooms. The students were head over heals when Mikiel entered their classrooms. The school takes this opportunity to thank Agenda Book Shop for the books donated to the school.
When the reading session was over, the year 3, 4, and 6 students gathered in the hall for a forum during which questions were asked to our ambassadors and the permanent secretary. Before the forum began, the year 2 students sang a song about reading.
Before leaving the school, Ganni and Corazon sang a song to our students and they also spared some time to sign autographs.
Special thanks goes to our distinct guests Mr Joseph Caurana, Ganni, Corazon, the college principal, Mr David Muscat (EO Malti) for organising this event and Mr Zammit who took photos of this event.
And finally a special thanks goes to all the members of staff who helped in the smooth running of the event.
Enjoy reading 😉
World Autism Day…
Safety Mat for Kindergarten Students…
At our school we do our best to provide our students with a sound education in a safe environment. With the help of the parents, who always help us to raise funds for the embellishment of the school, we have now installed safety mats, for the kindergarten children in the internal yard.
This was a very ambitious project, but thanks to your kind donations, the project has become a reality.
On behalf of the staff and the students, I would like to thank you all for your generosity 🙂
Carnival 2014
Carnival is that time of the year when students, parents and all members of staff have some time to wind down from the busy school routine. At Mgarr Primary School carnival brings a number of traditions. The main events for the day were the dance stunts prepared by the parents and teachers.
A presentation by year 5.2 students of Dr. Micallef kicked off the programme. This presentation gave a detailed explanation of the origins of carnival and traditions and food typical of this time of the year.
Following this presentation parents and teachers danced to the cheers of the audience. It was very entertaining seeing the team of parents entertaining the audience, followed by the team of teachers, KGAs and LSAs who took us back in time with their dancing.
Following these performances children were surprised by a slide show presentation diplaying photos of all members of staff of when they were still young. Students and parents enjoyed playing this game trying to guess who photos represented.
Finally the students had time to dance along to music and showing off a colourful display of costumes. Well done to everyone for making this event yet another success 😉
