During the month of April 2025, the students at Saint Benedict College Secondary School in Kirkop, had the pleasure of welcoming a group of eight French students along with their three teachers. This was made possible thanks to an exchange that was part of an Erasmus+ Mobility project coordinated by the head of the Saint Benedict College network, Dr. Roberta Argento. The students and their teachers come from Paul Verlaine High School, located in Rethel in the Grand Est region. They came to Malta to practice English but also to discover Maltese culture. In fact, during their stay in Malta, they visited historical sites such as the Hagar Qim temples, the capital city Valletta, and the typical Maltese villages located around the school. Naturally, during ten days the students also attended classes with the students and took part in activities organized by the school.

It was an excellent opportunity for the students at St Benedict College Secondary school to speak French, become familiar with French culture, and above all make new friends.
