The National Sport School organised an informative and engaging morning for parents of Year 7 and Year 8 students.

Throughout the morning, parents had the opportunity to gain valuable insights from professionals in physiotherapy, coaching and guidance, nutrition, sport psychology, strength and conditioning, and media.

The event highlighted the importance of collaboration between parents, educators and professionals in supporting the holistic development and well-being of our young athletes.

A heartfelt thank you to all our speakers and the parents who participated and contributed to making this initiative a success!

Together, we can create a stronger support system for our young athletes!

A proud moment of giving back! Following our Pink October campaign, our students proudly presented a donation of €1,100 to Hospice Malta.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed and helped make this generous donation possible.

Together, we can make a difference!

It was a great pleasure to welcome back former NSS Football student Haley Bugeja to our school!

During her visit, Haley met with our students, Administration and staff, and shared fond memories of her time at NSS. She spoke about her school days and how the experiences, friendships and memories she made here have remained close to her throughout her football career abroad.

NSS Head of School, Dr D. Debono, presented Haley with a memento as a token of appreciation.

We are proud to see one of our former students pursuing her dreams and inspiring the next generation. Keep shining, Haley!

Today marked the NSS first day of school. Such a special milestone!

On Monday 28^th November our Year 11 students participated in a whole day seminar organised by the Guidance and PSCD departments. The first part of the seminar was delivered by Mr Joe Zammit and explored social responsibility – taking responsibility for our actions, values and making better decisions in life. The second part was focused on career related skills, such as preparing for a job interview, writing of C.V.s, employability and reflecting on possible career paths. These sessions were delivered by our college career advisor, Mr Bjorn Spiteri, together with the Guidance Team.

After a tasty abundant brunch at the Urban Valley Resort, where the activity was held, students joined our school’s guidance teachers, PSCD teachers and career advisors for a mock job interview, which for most was a first-time experience. Students could volunteer to interview as well as observe the interviews of the other students, whilst also working through the PSCD workbook on the topics mentioned above.

We believe that it was a fruitful and an eye-opening experience for our students who shall soon be leaving our school to continue on their different career paths.

At the end of October, The National Sport School hosted a press conference in view of The European Championships of the Blood Bowl which are being organised at the school on the 5 th and 6 th of November 2022. The championships will include 400 competitors from 21 different countries. The President of the Federation, Jean Mark Meli, who has been holding this position for the past five years, said that this sport is a Table Top Sport, similar to that of a board game. He remarked that this type of sport is becoming more popular among athletes. This event comes a year after the association acquired the rights to host such championships in Malta thanks to the good results achieved by the Maltese participants who competed in previous games. Minister for Education and Sport, Dr Clifton Grima, who was also present during the press conference, intimated the importance of hosting such competitions in Malta which do not only serve as an opportunity for
sports but also as a boost to the tourism industry. Dr Grima also thanked and congratulated the
Head of School, Mr Robert Magro, for his unceasing efforts to promote the school premises as a
venue for different sports practices and for multiple sports events and championships.
