Every week a different class is to prepare a special assembly which is held in the school hall. The Year 4.1 students of Ms Angelique prepared a special assembly about Diversity using the metaphor of us being like a box of crayons. Each colour is wonderful in its own way and together the colours give us the wonderful world we live in. We all have our talents and by pooling our talents we can always achieve better.

The year 3.1 students of Ms Rosette prepared a special assembly highlighting the importance of consuming 5 fruit and vegetables every day. They also prepared a basket full of different fruit and vegetables including celery, broccoli, bananas, apples, carrots and citrus fruit such as lemons and oranges, among others.

The teacher highlighted the importance of consuming oranges which are high in vitamin C to prevent colds. Ms Rosette also mentioned that celery is a very healthy vegetable containing a high number of minerals and vitamins need by our body.

Morning assemblies are an important part of the daily schedule in every educational institution. This gives the students, teachers and senior management team time to communicate, pray and learn together. Every class will be preparing special assemblies throughout the scholastic year.

So far we had three special assemblies. The first one was prepared by Ms Borg and her year 6.1 students. During this assembly the students spoke to us about the importance of diversity. Each and every one of us has special qualities and talents, irrespective of their background.

Another assembly was prepared by the year 5.2 class of Ms Micallef. Her students role played  a situation where one of the students was not allowed to play football with his team mates. Through this experience students were made aware of the injustice of bullying.

The year 4.2 class of Ms Said prepared a very active special assembly. All students were invited to dance the morning away through zumba, after being given a brief history of the origins of this dance.

Well done to all 😉
