A total of four schools in Gozo have, in recent months, benefited from projects involving the installation of artificial turf pitches in school grounds. The schools are the Agius de Soldanis Girls’ Secondary school and the Victoria, Ghajnsielem and Xewkija primary schools. The new pitch located at the Anton Cassar primary school in Ghajnsielem was financed through the Foundation for Tomorrow’s Schools.

During the last few months, the school underwent embellishment and refurbishment works which included included the replacement of all window apertures, the installation of new laminated doors as well as the laying of artificial turf and soft mats for the kindergarten students in separate parts of the school’s playground . The school in collaboration with the Ministry of Gozo employees also gave a fresh and colourful new look to the main halls thanks to a new paint job.

The aim of these projects is to increase and upgrade the quality of education and sporting facilities, and to provide students with added opportunities which encourage participation in sporting events held during the scholastic year.
