During this week, the Year 10 students participated in an activity organised by Heritage Malta at the Maritime Museum in Birgu. The activity consisted of two sessions. First, they visited the temporary exhibition titled ‘An Island at the Crossroads,’ where they had the opportunity to analyse primary sources, including paintings related to maritime activities during the Knights of Malta period.
Following this, they explored the ‘Clean Oceans’ exhibition, which focused on sea pollution and its impact on historic maritime sites. During this session, the students conducted a scientific experiment that demonstrated how Carbon Dioxide negatively affects our seas.  Special thanks to Mr. Buttigieg for organising such engaging and educational visits.

Today, the Year 10 Art group had the opportunity to visit the GlassXpressions workshop in Birkirkara, where they created glass Christmas ornaments. Thanks to Ms. Laura Cachia and Mr. Darren Bugeja for accompanying the students.

On Thursday, November 28, students from Years 9, 10, and 11 who study German visited the German-Maltese Circle in Valletta to participate in the German Film Festival. They watched the film titled “Die Pfefferkörner und der Schatz der Tiefsee”, which translates to “The Peppercorns and the Treasure of the Deep Sea”. The story follows two children, Alice and Tarun, as they embark on an adventure to solve the kidnapping of Tarun’s mother. She was a marine researcher who had been abducted by a corrupt businessman and his associate after they discovered that her research was groundbreaking.

On Wednesday, 20 November, the green flag ceremony took place, and our school received this honour for the seventh consecutive time. The ceremony was held under the patronage of Her Excellency Ms. Myriam Spiteri Debono, the President of Malta. Over the past two years, our school focused on the theme of ‘Conservation of the Seas.’ Currently, the Eko-Skola committee is working on a new project related to “Soil” for the next two years. We would like to extend our special thanks to all the Eko-Skola members under the guidance and supervision of Mr. Savona and Ms. Edwards for their commitment and dedication.

Today, our school day began with an exciting preparatory meeting filled with enthusiasm from both educators and students as we prepared for Sports Day! Each of us belongs to a House, and the leaders are working hard to organise everyone and energise them for the big event. This year, the PE teachers have not only included the classic Sports Day activities for the winning shield but also added leagues that will take place during our mid-day breaks, an art competition, and a quiz! It’s a thrilling way to determine which House will take home the shield this year. May the best House win! Good luck to the Phoenicians, Normans, Romans, and Knights! Let’s make this Sports Day unforgettable!
