A roller coaster around the capital, a water fight at the Palace Armoury and a water slide in St George’s Square would be a perfect way to celebrate Valletta as Europe’s Capital of Culture in 2018, according to nine-year-old children.

The Valletta 2018 Foundation is carrying out workshops for Grade 5 schoolchildren as part of its awareness-building campaign and also to encourage participation in the events to be held in the run-up to the year in which Valletta will take its prestigious title.

The workshops are coordinated by actors Malcolm Galea and Joseph Zammit.

“The public will also have the opportunity to propose new projects for the V-18 cultural programme and enrol to the volunteer programme,” said Edward Bonello, V-18 communications director.
