A vibrant wave of orange filled Ġużè Aquilina Sannat Primary School and Special Unit as students, teachers, and staff united to raise awareness about ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). This colourful event aimed to promote understanding and empathy for individuals with ADHD, encouraging everyone in the school community to learn more about the condition. Students and staff proudly wore orange as a symbol of their support, emphasizing the importance of inclusion and acceptance for all students, regardless of their unique challenges.
During the assembly, we spoke about inclusivity and the value of supporting each other. We highlighted the achievements of important personalities with ADHD, sharing their stories to inspire resilience and perseverance. These individuals, who succeeded despite their challenges, reminded students of the strength in embracing differences and pursuing their dreams with determination.
And finally, the staff of Ġuże` Aquilina Sannat Primary and Special Unit bid a heartfelt farewell to their headmistress of 10 years. In a symbolic gesture, they witnessed the passing of the leadership role, represented by the school bell, to the new headmistress. We extend our warmest wishes for a happy and relaxing retirement to Ms. Pauline Grech who has dedicated a decade of her life to the school. Her commitment and leadership have left a lasting impact on both students and staff. We also offer our best wishes for success to the new headmistress Ms Mary Jane Camilleri in her journey to lead the school into the future.
Today, we gathered to celebrate an extraordinary person, someone who has dedicated the last ten years of her life to tirelessly serving our students. Ms. Pauline Grech has worked with unwavering commitment, showing love and care to every single student she encountered. Her passion for their well-being was evident in everything she did. Ensuring the safety and success of our students, particularly the most vulnerable, was her top priority, and nothing—no obstacle or challenge—ever stood in her way. She was a fierce advocate, always going the extra mile to make a difference.
Today, we come together to express our deep gratitude for every word of encouragement, every compassionate gesture, and every moment of support she has given over the years. Her impact on our school community is immeasurable, and her absence will surely be felt by both staff and students alike.
Thank you, Ms. Pauline, for your dedication, kindness, and tireless efforts. You will be profoundly missed, but your legacy will live on in the countless lives you’ve touched. Wishing you all the best as you embark on your well-deserved retirement.

Year 3 students enjoyed an outing to Marsalforn. During their trek to the beach, they had the opportunity to observe a wide variety of both living and non-living things in their natural environment.
