Memories from the Year 7 second group live-in experience.
On Thursday, 20th February, our Year 9 Biology students visited Maypole to explore the science behind baking. They learned how yeast, a living microorganism, carries out anaerobic respiration, breaking down sugars to produce carbon dioxide and ethanol. This fermentation process causes the dough to rise, giving bread its soft and airy texture. Students had the chance to observe the process firsthand and even taste freshly baked products. Thank you to Maypole for this interesting and delicious hands-on experience!
Last Friday, two of our students, Lucas Falzon and Didier Camilleri, represented the school at the ceremony for the allocation of funds for the LIFE School Projects 2024-2025, hosted by the Energy and Water Agency. During this ceremony, the students had the opportunity to present the school’s project in detail. The Year 10 King’s Trust students, in collaboration with members of the Eco School, will be developing a duct system to collect rainwater that falls on the greenhouse. This harvested rainwater will be stored in a tank and utilized for irrigation purposes.

Last week, representatives from Preca College in Korce, Albania, which is a sister institution also managed by S.D.C., visited our school. During this visit, we engaged in meaningful discussions, sharing personal insights and experiences, and explored potential opportunities for collaboration between our two schools.
Through a project that forms part of Ekoskola, our school won the LEAF award for the 12th time in a row. LEAF – Learning about Ecosystems and Forests – is an award intended to increase awareness of the importance of trees and diversity in our ecosystem. During this last time, the Ekoskola team, under Mr. Savona’s and Mr. Edwards’s guidance, grew seedlings from seeds in milk cartons. When they grow, these plants will be given to be planted in public places. We congratulate the Ekoskola team and the educators who are coordinating this project.
Currently, half of the Year 7 group is participating in their annual live-in at Dar il-Ħanin Samaritan. During the mornings, they engage in various educational activities, while the afternoons are dedicated to exploring the countryside. Once back home, they enjoy games and delicious food. At the end of each day, they conclude with a moment of prayer and usually watch a film or participate in a treasure hunt. We extend our gratitude to all the educators who are accompanying the students during this live-in experience.
