Finally, after almost 2 years we went on a school outing to Piscopo Gardens. It was a truly memorable outing where we got to see not only indoor and outdoor plants and herbs but also toucans, meerkats and budgies. The boys were also given the opportunity to feed the fish and at the end of […]
Every year, St Edward’s College Malta provides the parents with a yearly pack of essential information, including book lists and uniform requirements.

All years will receive their orientation packs through the MySchool platform with any other […]
For the last lesson of the final term, the year 7 students had to create a playing card-portrait design with the use of symmetry, after measuring and making observations about playing cards in a traditional deck. They did not have to depict their character as ‘royalty’ but they were required to develop detailed patterns in […]

They saw the achievements of various Maltese artists from Actors to Musicians, Conductors and Film Directors, Scriptwriters and Dancers, Singers, Songwriters and Musical Theatre Performers.

With apologies to Gerald Durrell, the videos compiled by Year 3,4 and 5 boys on “Il-Familja tiegħi” (My Family) are ever so heartwarming. Not only do the boys describe in some detail, the (for them) notable traits of their family but they also include animals as family members. When watching the videos, it seems that […]

This last term, the boys in year 4x had a fantastic time engaging in hands-on activities to recreate what they have learnt. During English Creative Writing, the boys had the opportunity to live the life of a pirate for a day and create their how-to videos. They then explored the Solar System during Science by […]
Two years after the last conferment of the sacrament of First Holy Communion at St Edward’s College, the celebration is back. Albeit in a somewhat muted form due to Covid-19 precautions and restrictions, this year’s celebrations are in ‘extra-large’ format. Not only are the Year 2s preparing for their big day but, also this year, […]
Well, no, it’s not what you might think! Year 5 students went round the college grounds to explore the different surfaces the school has to provide and test for different levels of friction acting on a rolling ball. On their experimentation trip, they also went around to study the different tread marks on tyres of […]
