Gozo General Hospital collaborated with Gozo College Agius De Soldanis Middle School through the EkoSkola programme managed by Nature Trust – FEE Malta and GLOBE Malta on an innovative initiative – a community garden in front of Residenza Sant Anna.

The Gozo General Hospital said that “it is with great pleasure and honour that we announce that this project has been chosen as the best initiative by a school promoting a sustainable lifestyle and recognised with the Sustainable Development Action Award.”The Sow, Grow, Unite Community Garden was completed and inaugurated earlier in the summer and blessed by the Bishop of Gozo Anton Teuma.

It is a first-of-its-kind initiative in the Maltese Islands promoting outdoor education, hands-on cross-curricular learning, quality time with family and a stronger connection with nature.

“We have always believed in this project because we saw its potential – not only does it involve students and their parents, but also the elderly and the staff at Gozo General Hospital,” Gozo General Hospital said.
