A Reply from Santa

In December Miss Jacqueline’s class (Kg 2.3) sent a letter to Santa Claus during a Literacy Activity.  Each child sent a letter and told Santa Claus would they would like for Christmas.  Santa Claus sent the children a reply and they enjoyed the experience of opening a letter from Santa.

A Special Prize from Greenpak

During the annual Istrina programme on the 26th of December, Greenpak donated a nice sum of money towards the Community Chest Fund cause. All the schools in Malta and Gozo partecipated in a competition. Students were asked to collect plastic bottle caps and these were collected in special bins at school. These were then weighed and greenpak donated €1 for every kilo collected. Our school participated actively in this competition,  with students collecting plastic caps and bringing them to school every day. Our school collected close to 150 kilos in all. Although this was not the largest ammount collected by a single school, it was still a very good effort. Greenpak gave our school a special trophy which was given to the President of our Eco-School comitee Maya Galea during the Istrina transmition. A very well done once again to all of our students. Our little effort will surely help someone in need.

Christmas Concerts

Christmas Concerts for Students attending Year 1 to Yr 6 were held between the 15th and the 21st of December. Unfortunately due to the major works being carried out in our hall, we were not able to hold these concerts at our school. Thanks to the the Sisters at Apap Institute, we were able to use their Hall. Students were so excited and eager to perform in front of their parents. A big clap to all the students and teachers for wonderful performances.

Special thanks to Ms Pace, Ms Panzavecchia and Ms Gladwish – our Sound engineers / backstage hands for their sterling work

Christmas Concerts for Kindergarten Classes

Christmas Concerts for Students in Kindergarten Classes were held on the 15th of December. The concerts were held in the respective classes, and parents sat in class whilst their children sang carols. Well done to all

Our Christmas Greeting

Christmas is a very exciting time indeed. From very early in December students can be seen enjoying themselves writing and giving out Christmas cards to each other. Our  Eko-Skola Student Council suggested that we should try to limit the number of Christmas cards that we give out. These cards are thrown away as soon as the festive season is over. The Student council suggested that if possible we need to

1. limit these card to people who we rarely meet, or live far away,  or

2. Send e-cards.

It was also suggested that students in year 4, 5 and 6 will have their own space where to write their greetings.

Ms Pace and Miss Panzavecchia arranged a notice board with recycled paper  and Miss Agelique Attard added the final touches. Then Students found time to write their greetings for all to see. Well done to all the students for working so hard towards our environment and we hope to be able to extend this to other year groups next year.

Christmas Greetings

Christmas Procession

On the 22nd of December before the class party, students at our school walked around the outskirts of the school,  singing Christmas Carols, led by Miss Bajada. A group of Year 4 and Year 5 students held Baby Jesus all the way. The procession stopped in the Yard and we all sang another carol and then all the students went into their respective classes to have their much awaited Christmas Party.
