Gozo celebrated World Environment Day on Monday with events especially for children at the Villa Rundle Gardens, organised by the Ministry for Gozo.
Pupils from several primary schools across Gozo had the opportunity to take part in different activities which were aimed to educate and raise awareness of the environment around us.
They were given a detailed explanation about the natural process of butterfly formation, as well information on which species can be found on the Maltese Islands.
World Environment Day is celebrated on the 5th of June and is the United Nations day for encouraging worldwide awareness and action to protect our environment.
This year’s celebrations, held under the theme `Solutions to Plastic Pollution,’ is a reminder that people’s actions on plastic pollution matters.
