Pink October Activity
Welcome message
Curious and Courageous Activity
As part of the Culture Pass Scheme, a story animator from “Curious and Courageous- Lingnin Stories” produced a performance for years 1, 2 and 3 at our school. These activity sessions encourage reading and promote language and creative thinking.
The story was about the stone statue which in the story wakes up during the night. This statue dates back from the Neolithic period in Malta and it was found in the Hal Saflieni hypogeum. It symbolises the eternal sleep. It is now found in the National Archeology museum in Valletta. With the culture card given to your child last year they can visit it for free. This visit might come in handy for future history lessons your child might be having. Below is a link about this statue. You should ask them about this story…..

The school administration would like to thank all those involved in the activity.

Pink October Day at Mariam Albatool School
For the Pink Day at school, the Year 6J class came up with the idea of making milkshakes in class. The children put the milk, yoghurt and some banana in a container and used the blender to mix everything together. They topped up the milkshake with some whipped cream and flying saucers. Paper cups and straws were used so as to minimize the use of plastic.
