Houses in Malta

Hello there,

This is Ms. Antoinette's Class. We are going to talk to you about houses in Malta. Houses in Malta are made from Limestone. This is cut from the quarries we have on the island and is very hard.

Limestone



The roofs of our houses are flat and not slanting because it does not snow in Malta. We use our roofs for drying clothes.

In the villages we have big and small houses. In the towns we have lots of flats and apartments.

Hello from Yellow Class



 Before Christmas we made puppets for our Christmas play. We made 3 Kings and 2 angels. Here are some pictures of them.

Our new topic is Out and About. We will be learning about our town of Nantwich and about Tudor houses and other houses in our area. Maybe you could tell us some information about your homes.

Do you have any Tudor buildings or houses in Malta?
Do you have terraced houses?
What colour are your houses?
Do any of you live in flats or apartments?
Do you live in old or new houses?
What are your houses made of?

We will send you some photos of Nantwich very soon.

We hope we hear from you,

Yellow Class
