Earlier this year, the Ekoskola committee, who is focusing on healthy eating as part of this year’s aims for St. Monica School Gżira, decided to create an appendix to determine what the eating choices for the students include, and how these could be improved to help, both to improve the general health of the students and to modify the menu to include more environmentally friendly options.

“Your conscience is the measure of honesty of your selfishness. Listen to it carefully.” It is a common temptation for one to vandalise the environment by getting rid of whatever he needs to throw away anywhere he deems is comfortable for him.

Halt Bad Habits Trying to absorb the beauty of the view but then… Why are we spoiling our environment with litter and garbage? Also, this photo clearly shows that apart from the garbage bag being thrown deliberately in the countryside road, the person concerned did not separate the waste, since orange peel and plastic can be seen in the same bag. This attitude is a lack of respect towards our environment and each other. These bad habits are leading to the depletion of our world.
