A number of Gozitan school children recently took part in a walk of Wied ta’ Dahlet Qorrot, which was organised as part of the Hands on Farming Programme within the Gozo College.
The walk started from the beginning of the valley and went up to the beach, during the walk information was given to the children about the valley and they were also able to make notes and take photographs of the native plants and trees such as carob trees, cypress trees and other plants such as thyme.
This idea is aimed at educating students and help them to better understand the concept of eco-Gozo and how sustainable development can go hand in hand with nature and the environment.
This activity was organised for children who are attending the fifth year of primary school in Gozo shools.

Mr. and Mrs. Grech
You are doing an unimaginable heavenly service to us Maltese and Gozitans living overseas, especially long timers as myself. For us every Gozitan square inch is more then the garden of eden. The Dahlet Qorrot clip tops`em all.
Thank you
