Hello! This is a picture of the pupils of Year 5A (2005-2006)
at John A. Cilia, Mgarr Primary School, Malta. We are currently
working on this year's edition of our class magazine.
We would like to participate in the project with other European
schools. This activity involves the collection and
exchange of information regarding our respective countries,
and therefore the articles in our magazine this year will
relate mainly to three topics, namely:
- Tourist Information and National Monuments,
- Local Culture and Traditions, and
- Gastronomy, Environment and Nature.
We shall be forwarding our work to you in due course, and
thank you for any articles you may wish to send us in connection
with the project, which we shall certainly find very interesting.
Good work!

Experiences
These are some of the experiences of Maltese
students who participated in the ENSEMBLE project, which
invluded an exchange visit with Spanish students.
1. Visiting Spain
My visit in Spain was very pleasant and interesting.
The welcoming was really wonderful. All the Spanish
people and students were very friendly and after some
time we immediately made friends with them. To communicate
with Spanish people was a bit difficult as they don’t
know English, but then we asked the Spanish students
to translate for us, so after all this experience was
quite fun.
I might say that the most thing that impressed
me was the picturesque landscape. I was open-mouthed
when I saw how much different it is from Malta. Spain,
with those beautiful mountains and parks, forests and
lots of trees. I guess that this holiday has taught
me lots of things, example, the difference of environment,
type of traditional food and most of all I learned how
much important it is to know of different languages
and it made me eager to learn more.

Hi! I’m Stephanie! I’m one of those
students who went a week in Spain. It was not an excellent
holiday but a brilliant one!! This year I celebrated
my birthday there too. Spain is very different
from Malta. The cultures, food, long trips. I likes
most the welcoming of the students and teachers, and
the extraordinary hostel! It was excellent! The Spanish
students are very friendly and I’m glad with that.
We made friends from the first day! Thanks for taking
time to read this.

3. My visit to
Spain, in 2007
I enjoyed my visit to Spain from the
flight Malta-Madrid to my last step in Spain.
I was impressed by the good welcome
they gave us. The Spanish people are very friendly and
helpful. The Spanish children are very lucky to have Luis
and Anna as teachers as we do to have Ms Melanie and Mrs
Morris. I liked the hostel in El Torno very much. The
best was the nice view. Placencia is a very nice village
and they are very lucky to live there. The excursions
were very interesting. Spain, with its nice sights, friendly
people, wonderful sights and rich history, makes it the
best country, after Malta of course as I am Maltese!!!
