e-Twinning Project – About a fortnight ago, a group of 18 students from our school went to Sora and Alvito, in the Frosinone province as part of an e-Twinning project. After this visit it was now time for the students and teachers from the Liceo Scientifico Leonardo da Vinci to reciprocate this visit.
A group of six teachers and three teachers arrived in Malta on Monday, 22nd May 2024 at 13:15. After settling at Dar il-Ħanin Samaritan they left together with a group of our students for a visit to Rabat and Mdina and to Dingli Cliffs. In the evening, they went to Sliema, and on Tuesday morning the Italian students and teachers came to our school and had some organised activities together with our Year 10 students. In the afternoon, they visited the Crafts Village in Ta’ Qali and other places of interest in Attard. On Wednesday they had a whole day trip to Gozo. They visited the Cittadella, Marsalforn, the ta’ Pinu Basilica and Dwejra. After dinner, although tired they went to enjoy a typical Maltese feast in Tarxien. The next day, on Thursday, the Italian group together with our students visited our capital city Valletta and toured St John’s Co-Cathedral, the Grand Master’s Palace, and Upper Barrakka Gardens where they could enjoy the view of the Grand Harbour. In the afternoon they visited Fort St Angelo in Vittoriosa and its surroundings. In the evening, students and parents gathered at school for a farewell party. The Italian teachers expressed their gratitude for the organisation of their visit. It was a very positive experience for them and for their students.
On Friday, before leaving Malta they visited a typical bakery in Qormi and after exchanging gifts with our teachers they left for the airport.
