Outing at San Anton
Outing at San Anton Our Level 1 pupils enjoyed a fun and engaging Numeracy, Language and Literacy trail on an outing at San Anton Gardens. The children enjoyed the opportunity of valuing and applying numeracy strategies learnt in the classroom that helped them create and engage their problem-solving abilities in the beautiful outdoor setting of San Anton Gardens. They also talked about features of the outdoor environment, developed ideas, followed directions and instructions, listened and responded to the sounds around them, and used sensorial language to describe their experience.

World Ocean Day
World Ocean Day Today on WORLD OCEAN DAY Neil Agius was welcomed once again to Chiswick House School. Our pupils exhibited their countless posters and proudly presented their pledges, the one positive thing they promise to do for the good of our sea which they will continue doing in their everyday lives. Neil Agius was amazed at how many pupils and teachers joined the wave and encouraged more pupils to do the same. Neil Aguis – the founder of Wave of Change @waveofchangemalta last year swam from Linosa to Gozo, a record of 125.6km completed in just over 52 hours. He continues to inspire people to help our oceans by picking up 6 pieces of litter and encouraging others to do the same. No one can do everything but everyone can do something!
