A group of about 30 students at the Sir Michelangelo Refalo Centre for Further Studies, Victoria, recently went on a seven-day cultural trip to northern Italy led by school head Marcel Xuereb and teacher Lawrence Sciberras. The group was based in the seaside resort of Lerici, and visited museums, cathedrals and landmarks in Florence, Pisa, Genoa, La Spezia, Portofino, Carrara and the Italian Riviera. They also paid a visit to Il De Passano Scuola Superiore La Spezia, a 6th Form institution.
