Miniature ceramic village

Students at Carlo Diacono Girls' Junior Lyceum in Hamrun have built a miniature ceramic village.

No fewer than 80 students took part in the project under the supervision of ceramics teacher Carmel Agius.

The five-by-six-metre village includes houses, a church, a mill, farms and blocks of flats. It also has about 40 figures, including a woman wearing the ghonnella, a priest, a herdsman, a farmer, a cat, a dog, and fish. The model is supplied with water and electricity.

The students worked on the project for four months and some work was done during the summer holidays.
