On the 16th October 2015, the year 6 students had the opportunity to learn more about the Great Siege of Malta. They visited the Armoury and the Throne room in the Grandmaster’s palace in Valletta. The Armoury houses one of the finest collection of weapons of the period of the knights of Malta. Spears, swords, shields, heavy armour and other weapons are on display. Later, children took part in a parade where some of them took the role of Knights and some pretended to be the Turkish soldiers.

This event was organised by the Education Department in collaboration with Heritage Malta.
