Break!

This blog is being temporarily stopped because of the migration process into the new ilearn system.  

The information on here will remain available.  Photos of old classes will also remain here and any ex-students wishing to view any particular old photos can leave their messages here. 

 It is being planned that eventually this blog will be re-launched, under a new format, and kept as online notice-board of activities done in our class.  In the mean time, information about specific lessons in our class and other notes will be made available in the newly set-up ilearn page.

An open letter to my students....

Dear Students,


Another year has just come to a close. And what a year it has been. Most of you said to me that this year went by so fast, and that is a good sign.

How can I forget all the things we did together this year? All those lessons we had! Our first outing, when we went to visit the Catacombs in Rabat. How can I forget all those of you who were Students of the Month or those of you who came runners-up? How can I forget the effort you all put in when we had to perform during the Christmas Concert play? I remember you coming to school dressed in your fancy carnival costumes. That was fun. I remember when we decided to cook rice salad in our class and when we went on a fieldwork in Buskett. I remember Merit Day. I won’t even forget how hot it was when we had our Sports Day. What I will definitely never forget is the smile on your faces whenever you stepped into my class, the jokes we shared and the lessons we had together. Thank you all for making it such a special year!


This summer I will take some time off. I will not be doing any summer-school as I need to take care of baby Noah and prepare for the coming scholastic year during which you will notice some changes!

In the mean time, I wish you all a lovely summer. Keep it simple. Be good to yourself. Enjoy life…and be happy. See you in September… :)

Il-gazzetta tal-Year4 Yellow

Din il-gazzetta hija kollha produzzjoni tat-tfal.  Il-ħsieb warajha kien li nitgħallmu naqraw il-kitbiet ta’ xulxin waqt li nipprattikaw ftit il-kitba b’mod kreattiv.  Għan ieħor kien li din il-gazzetta tinżamm bħala tifkira żgħira tas-sena li għaddejna flimkien.  Grazzi lit-tfal kollha u lill-ġenituri tal-għajnuna u minn qalbna nawguraw lil kulħadd sajf mill-aqwa.

Ikklikja hawn biex tara il-gazzetta tal-klassi tagħna.

Guided Reading in our class..

'The right book at the right pair of hands' One of the main targets this year was to promote guided reading in our class. This has been a big success and a weekly slot gives our students the chance to read one book per week that is best to their ability. All books were selected from the wide range of Big Cats reading scheme. Class was divided into four groups and every group read a different book every week. This was also made possible largely thanks to the help and support by Ms. Diane - our complimentary teacher in our school.

What do you, students, think of these lessons? Did you enjoy reading these books? Did you find them attractive? Tell us why! You can leave your comments underneath this post.

Fieldwork in Buskett

On Friday 24th March our class took part in a special fieldwork activity in Buskett.  Once we got there, we listened to the sounds of nature, observed tiny insects, searched for leaves and different kinds of trees, listed living and non-living objects and lots lots more. 

Rice Salad in Class

On Wednesday 22nd March, rice salad was served in our class.  Teachers and LSA's served as waiters and all students had a wide variety of healthy food to choose from.

In our class we promote healthy food, always.  And we recommend everybody reading this to do the same and eat healthily.

Carnival 2012













Carnival at school was a memorable day.  First we had a special morning assembly where teachers came out in costume.  Then we did masks decorating in class.  This was followed with a great class-party thanks to food everyone chose to bring.  After the break watched a nice movie and at 1pm we had entertainment from local singer Gianni.  More entertainment was waiting for us inside the school hall where we had magics and lots lots more.  

P.S: Ah, and we had some beautiful costumes in class too.  See pics above and below :)
