Participating in this eTwinning project are three schools, one from Italy, the other from the United Kingdom, and us. Due to age and linguistic abilities, the project activities were divided into two subgroups, one for senior secondary schools and the other for lower secondary schools. Thus, the students would work within the group of lower secondary school with our Italian partners. The chat and the blog are free for all students irrespective of their age and abilities to communicate freely.
It was a very exciting morning for the pupils of Ms. Maria Antoinette Magro, at St. Gorg Preca College, Hamrun Primary GP. The day they had long been awaiting has finally arrived – students from 37 countries joined online on Flash Meeting to vote on each others’ entries and to proclaim the winner for Schoolovision 2013. Malta placed 10th out of 37 participating countries – our best result so far since the project started in 2009. Amanda Debattista from the eTwinning National Support Service visited the school in support of the students and their teacher as they voted and waited for the results to be published.

On the 7th December 2012, the Form 3 Biology students of Ms J. Ebejer Grech had a very interesting outing. They went to the Melitensia section of the University of Malta to do research about Lichens as pollutant monitors in the Maltese Islands. They needed this information to share it with other students in Estonia and Lithuania, in an eTwinning project.

The eTwinning Central Support Service has published the list of European Quality Labels awarded to eTwinning Projects across Europe. Projects who receive more than one National Quality Label are eligible for the European Quality Label. This second mark of success is awarded by the Central Support Service once a year and the results are featured on the Portal.
As of 2012, European Quality Labels are not being awarded automatically but have to be nominated by at least one National Support Service after a rigorous screening process. Each country can only propose up to 30% of the total number of applications submitted for National Quality Labels. Projects which go on to receive the European Quality Label will then be eligible to apply for the eTwinning European Prizes from their eTwinning Desktop.
