Last Monday, 5th October, we celebrated Animal Awareness Day. All the children at our school were excited as we could bring our pet with us to school. Fr. Joseph Borg came to visit us during the morning assembly to bless our loving pets. It was a perfect day to announce that this year, the EkoSkola committee will be working on the topic “Taking care of Animals”. This was the second most voted topic when we did a survey at the beginning of last scholastic year.
The EkoSkola Committee
Our pupils in years 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 had a short talk about the use of guide dogs in helping in the mobility of blind people. Our pupils had the opportunity to ask questions to the three blind people who addressed the event and witnessed one of the dogs helping his master moving safely up the aisle in the hall. Representatives of the EkoSkola committee concluded the event by encouraging all pupils to get 50c and colour one part of the picture of a dog in their class. All proceeds will go to the Maltese Guide Dog Association to help them buy and train another guide dog.
The EkoSkola Committee
Like last year, we, the EkoSkola Committee, are again collecting plastic bottle caps. The more plastic caps we collect, the more money GreenPak donates to the Community Chest Fund! It’s important that you do not throw away any plastic caps. Any type of caps will do, such as those of water bottles, minerals, shampoo bottles and also those of detergent bottles. Help us help!
