Petition is addressed to: Mr. Clifton Grima, Minister for Education, Youth, Resources and Innovation
The yard in St Julian's Primary/St Clare College is damaged and dangerous.
- Children are routinely slipping and injuring themselves on the rubberised surface which has now disintegrated to gravel.
- The longest surrounding wall is slowing collapsing, due to subsidence. There is a sheer drop to a busy road on the opposite side.
- There are no shaded parts, which makes playtime in summer heat unnecessarily uncomfortable, and outside breaktimes in even light rain showers are impossible.
- Childrens' shoes and uniforms are being damaged and torn due to falls, placing unnecessary hardship on parents to replace.
Despite making repeated requests for assistance through all the proper channels, the school have still not been allocated the essential funding for these remedial works to take place.
Reason
Children are slipping and cutting themselves daily and the situation is deteriorating. We should not have to wait for even more serious injury for this issue to be resolved.
Please sign and share so that concerned parents, students, teachers, and other stakeholders can finally have a safe place for schoolchildren to play.

Why people sign
My kids get dirty at the playground, they trip and fall, and knowing that a wall of the schoolyard can fall is terrifying!
My daughter is at this school

It is very important because it concerns the safety of children.
