On Friday 12th June, Ms. Jeannette Cardona, the eTwinning national coordinator, visitid St Benedict College, Qrendi Primary to congratulate herself with the pupils participating in the project which placed third in the primary category for the National eTwinning Awards. The head of school welcomed her and called all the pupils of the school to attend for the presentation. The coordinator explained shortly what eTwinning is and how these pupils had managed to collaborate with a sicilian school to create the winning project. All the Year 5 and Year 6 pupils were given an eTwinning pouch to remember their success.
The school took the opportunity to repeat the short play the Year 6 pupils had prepared for their farewell and the head of school and assistant head also had some praising words for all the pupils, especially those who had contributed to publish stories in various newspapers or magazines.
Thanks, Jeanette, for giving our school such opportunity. Pupils and their teachers were delighted and felt acknowledged for their efforts when you came to celebrate with them their success in this endeavour.
kind regards
MaryAnne
