The Year 6 students enjoyed an engaging and educational visit to Ta Ċiċivetta, where they had the opportunity to experience life on a farm and learn about caring for animals and plants.

During the visit, the students fed the fish and interacted with various farm animals. They gently petted the rabbits and chickens while learning about their needs and habitats. The children also collected fresh eggs from the chicken coop and discovered how eggs are gathered on a farm.

One of the highlights of the day was helping the farmer prepare omelettes using the eggs they had collected. This hands-on activity allowed the students to understand where food comes from and the importance of farm produce.

The students also took part in a planting activity, where each child planted a basil plant. They learned about the conditions plants need to grow and how to care for them properly.

The outing was both enjoyable and educational, providing the students with valuable practical experiences and a greater appreciation for farming, nature, and sustainable living. Let's Talk Farming Programme Edukazzjoni Agrikoltura

Today, the children in Years 3.1 and 4.1 had fun remembering their visit to Ta' Ġingel Farm and the sheep they met there! 🐑 We talked about how the sheep are fed, how their wool is carefully sheared, and how they are milked. The children also remembered how Maltese cheeselets are made from sheep’s milk. To continue our farm adventure, we got creative and made our very own sheep crafts using recycled paper!

🥛🚜 From Farm to Fridge: Following the Journey of Benna Milk 🇲🇹🌱

As part of our “Let’s Talk Farming” project, the children of Year 6 explored the fascinating journey of Benna milk from the farm to our homes through a creative and imaginative writing activity. 🐄🥛

The students first learned about the important role of Maltese dairy farmers 🚜, how cows are cared for 🐄❤️, the milking process 🥛, and the journey milk takes from local farms to the Benna dairy for processing and packaging. They also discussed the importance of supporting local agriculture 🇲🇹🌾, making healthy food choices 🍎🥛, and adopting sustainable habits such as recycling ♻️ and reducing waste 🌍.

Inspired by their learning, the children wrote diary entries from the perspective of a milk carton 📖✏️. Through their creative stories, they brought the carton to life, describing its experiences from being filled at the dairy 🏭🥛 and transported to supermarkets 🛒, to becoming part of family breakfasts 🍞🥛, school lunches 🎒, and everyday routines. Some pupils even imagined what happened when the carton was forgotten in the fridge ❄️ or carefully recycled after use ♻️.

This engaging activity allowed students to strengthen their creative writing skills ✍️, enrich their vocabulary 📚, and develop a deeper appreciation of the hard work and dedication of local farmers 👩‍🌾👨‍🌾 who provide fresh dairy products for our community. It also encouraged them to reflect on how responsible choices, such as reducing waste 🌍 and recycling ♻️, can help protect the environment and support a more sustainable future 🌱.

By connecting farming with daily life 🚜➡️🏠, the project helped students gain a greater understanding of where their food comes from 🥛🐄, while fostering creativity 🎨, environmental awareness 🌍, and respect for Malta’s farming community 🇲🇹❤️. A wonderful example of learning that is both meaningful and enjoyable! ⭐👏💚 Let's Talk Farming Programme Edukazzjoni Agrikoltura
