National camping health and safety challenge for secondary school health and social care VET students in Malta

In Malta and Gozo there are 20 secondary schools which offer the VET subject Health and Social Care to students aged 13 to 16 years. To make the subject more interesting and more age-appropriate, a Camping Health and Safety Challenge was organised on a national level for students. This was the first challenge to be organised for this subject since its initiation in 2011. The students who participated showed extreme creativity and amalgamated the leisure aspect of camping activities with the health and safety knowledge they learnt in school. Senior managers, teachers and students said that the activity was practical, useful and enjoyable. Visit the Government of Malta’s website for more information (the working language is English).
