Hundreds of Gozitan students this morning turned up with Maltese and EU flags at the gates of Sir M. A. Refalo School in Victoria, Gozo, to give Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi a hero's welcome during a visit.

Chanting "thank you" the students followed Dr Gonzi on his tour constantly asking for autographs and photos.

Dr Gonzi had a light lunch with the students at the canteen before heading back to Malta.
