Dinja Waħda…

The school would like to announce that during the past scholastic year 2013-2014 our students, teacher, KGAs and LSAs have been awarded the Gold Award for the second time in a row. The students are now aiming for another Gold Award and for the Blue Flag (awarded when a school is awarded 3 gold awards consecutively).

Well done to all. Special thanks goes to Ms Rodgers, assistant head, for coordinating the Dinja Waħda Project 🙂

A shore thing…

On 6th June 2014 the Kinder 1 students of Ms Joanne and Ms Josianne went to Gnejna for a hands on session. The aim was to make our students aware of natural sea habitat, it being home to many different creatures.

The students learnt about different forms of fish and other sea creatures that live in our coasts. They also learnt the importance of keeping shores clean and encouraged tourists to take care of our environment.

Finally the students made a sand collage in commemoration of their participation in the Dinja Waħda project.

Dinja Wahda01

The school is working in full force towards an ambitious project to raise environmental awareness. Last year we reached the Gold Award target for Dinja Waħda. Ms Rodgers is co-ordinating this project and, together with all the members of staff and students, she is working hard to promote environmental awareness and a love for wild life.

Above are some photos capturing different acitivities being tackled by various classes including bird migration, the Dinja Waħda logo and work on the notice board, nurturing respect towards nature including the tiniest of creatures such as ants, on-site fieldwork regarding the importance of rubble walls which feature in our countryside, etc.

Well done to everyone for working so hard and good luck on your achievements 😉

Ħallini Ħieles…

Hieles01The K1.3 students of Ms Joanne Galea have been busy learning about animals. The KGA made sure her students would appreciate these friendly creatures while giving them some food for thought.

The students were made to reflect about the importance of leaving birds free, rather than captured in a cage or, even worse, mummified as a trophy. This activity was linked to Dinja Waħda project.

The students made a replica of the earth (all craft was made from recycled material). Then each student coloured in a bird. Each bird was displayed flying around the earth. The birds were also used in a maths lesson to enhance number and value recognition.

On a different note, below we see the students proudly presenting their work on the class notice board. Since students have been learning about animals, the theme was appropriately chosen as Ir-Razzett”.

Dinja Waħda

The school, as in previous years, has embarked on Dinja Waħda project aiming to make our students become more aware about the environment and wildlife. Ms Rodgers updates the noticeboard regularly with students’ work and other useful information. Keep up the good work 🙂
