KG1 students have been engrossed in sports games as they enjoyed Zumba sessions, yoga sessions, basketball, badminton, tennis as well as football penalties on our extensive grounds. The classes were introduced to a variety of games as they each had a turn exploring the different balls and rackets used, learning the rules, following instructions and simply had great fun together. A number of areas were used for the games such as the College track, football pitches, courts, playgrounds, KG1 courtyard and even their own classrooms. The students enjoyed exploring the equipment, forming teams, and cheering on one another.

Going to school may be very much the groan of the day for children. Most children anyway. For these Year Twos, this week was special: they travelled back in time. No, they were not accompanied by The Doctor and they did not go in any TARDIS. They were transported back in time on the college grounds by Mr Dean Galea Pellicano. For all concerned it was, in all senses, a marvellous adventure.
In a two hour tour of the college, the very same steps the children shoot up every day, the same paths they run on cross-country, the same spaces they take their breaks in became transformed into bastions, hospitals and gun emplacements. What today is a shrine of peace, the chapel was once an arsenal of destruction: a gunpowder magazine. Classes, they got to know, were wards and people dressed quite differently then.
During this field trip the children not only followed attentively what Mr Galea Pellicano was saying, but they avidly consulted the handout he had prepared.
