English language programmes for children and parents
in the Mediterranean paradise
There is no better place than Malta to combine a great summer family holiday with English lessons. The small island in the Mediterranean Sea is a paradise for diving, snorkelling and swimming. Besides the beautiful rocky coast, Malta also has several beaches. For both parents and children, the island offers many activities, so the whole family can enjoy their stay. Malta, and its neighbouring island Gozo, are also very attractive for those who are interested in culture - some of the oldest buildings of the world can be found here. Having been influenced by many different cultures, Malta in general offers an atmosphere worth experiencing.
Our school is located in St. Paul’s, a pleasant village in the north of the island. The next town, Bugibba, is only a short walk away and has a delightful promenade with lots of restaurants, cafés and shops. It’s the ideal destination for English language programmes, where both parents and children can spend a perfect holiday!
Parents and children will normally have lessons in the morning and spend the rest of the day together.
