We are delighted to announce that the Afternoon Homework Club will once again be offered by the University of Malta Child Educare Services for the 2026/2027 scholastic year.

The service will commence on 12 October 2026 and will run from 13:30 to 17:00, Monday to Friday, at the University of Malta, Msida Campus. The service isn't offered during school holidays.

The Afternoon Homework Club provides a convenient and flexible afternoon service for school-aged children up to 10 years of age. Children are welcomed into a safe, calm and supportive environment where they can complete their homework with the assistance of our staff before enjoying some well-deserved time to relax, play and socialise.

Children will be accommodated in mixed-age groups, creating opportunities for social interaction, cooperation and positive peer relationships in a relaxed setting.

The service is available at a rate of €6 per afternoon session, allowing parents to select the number of afternoons they require according to their needs.

Parents wishing to make use of the service are kindly asked to complete the application form and indicate the number of afternoon sessions required for the particular month.

We hope that the Afternoon Homework Club will continue to provide families with a practical and reliable solution for their children’s after-school needs, while ensuring that children have a positive and enjoyable afternoon on campus.

We look forward to welcoming our children back to the Homework Club!

So proud of our dedicated Health and Safety Team, together with our Office for Human Resources, for going the extra mile to equip our summer school students with essential life skills.

This summer, our students had the opportunity to take part in First Aid and Fire Safety training, learning how to respond calmly and confidently in emergency situations.

Building safety awareness from a young age helps empower children to look after themselves and others. A valuable learning experience beyond the classroom!

🤝 Some of life’s most important lessons are learned together.

Through cooperative play, children practise sharing ideas, solving problems, taking turns, and supporting one another. These everyday moments help build communication, empathy, and lasting friendships.

At Il-Perla Kindergarten, relationships are at the heart of learning.

🔤➕ Literacy and numeracy are everywhere.

At Il-Perla Kindergarten, children develop early reading, writing, and mathematical thinking through meaningful, hands-on experiences. Whether they’re counting while they play, recognising patterns in nature, writing signs for a role-play area, or exploring stories together, learning happens naturally throughout the day.

By following children’s interests and providing purposeful opportunities to explore, we help build the confidence and skills that form the foundation for lifelong learning.

🔥 New this year at Kids On Campus: Fire Awareness Training

This year, we’ve introduced Fire Awareness Training with our dedicated Health and Safety Officers at the University of Malta.

Why is this important?

At Child Educare Services, we believe that children should be given opportunities to develop practical life skills in a safe, engaging, and age-appropriate way. Learning about fire safety helps children understand how to recognise potential dangers, know what to do in an emergency, and appreciate the important role of those who help keep our communities safe.

Through hands-on activities and interactive discussions, our young learners explored key fire safety messages, asked thoughtful questions, and gained confidence in responding safely to different situations.

Because learning isn’t only about academic knowledge—it’s also about equipping children with the awareness, confidence, and skills they need for everyday life.

🧩 Learning happens through meaningful experiences.

As children play together, they are developing much more than they may realise. While exploring concepts such as prepositions - over, under, beside, behind, and between - they are also learning to take turns, listen to others, communicate their ideas, and work cooperatively.

At Il-Perla Kindergarten, we create engaging experiences where language, social skills, and confidence develop naturally through play, helping children build strong foundations for future learning.

🏊 Afraid to let your child jump into a pool? We’ve got you covered!

At Kids On Campus, our coaches dive right in with your child, providing the support and encouragement they need to build confidence, strength, and swimming skills.

Learning to swim is not only about staying safe in the water. It is also about developing independence, overcoming fears, and discovering what children are capable of when they are given the right guidance.

Because when you have a skill, you carry confidence with you wherever you go.

🏗️ How do you build the tallest tower using only dry spaghetti?

It sounds simple—until you give it a try!

Our young learners put their creativity, teamwork, and problem-solving skills to the test as they explored different ways to design and build spaghetti towers. Through plenty of trial and error, they discovered that every challenge is an opportunity to think differently, adapt their ideas, and work together towards a shared goal.

Activities like these encourage children to communicate, experiment, persevere, and celebrate both successes and mistakes as valuable parts of the learning process.

At Child Educare Services, we believe that the best learning happens when children are actively engaged, curious, and inspired to find solutions together.
