Wastserv Malta entrusted our school to come up with a suitable programme to mark the beginning of the campaign. Naturally we rose to the occasion.
Being pressed for time we met during break to pick brains for ideas. They flowed thick and fast. We wanted something different which made use of the staff and the students’ talents. We opted for the silver screen.
Firstly we showed a short film explaining what led to our success in the previous campaign. It features our students in their race against time knocking on doors and pestering shop owners in their bid to outdo the other schools. Their efforts did not go unrewarded. Our school managed to win the competition of collecting the largest number of used batteries.
The second part of our programme was a 20 minute film called RICIKLAGG. This film promoted the importance of caring for the environment. It takes place in our school where the evil villain HA LEE tries to convince the boys to waste and undermine all recycling efforts. His ill conceived plans are foiled by his nature loving rival the super hero RICIKLAGG with the help of well meaning students. In the end RICIKLAGG manages to convince the whole school of the necessity of caring for the environment.
The production was entirely done by the school staff and students. The matinee was compered by RICIKLAGG himself in full superhero costume.
