Junior College participated in the Juvenes Translatores Contest, the annual translation contest for sixth formers in all EU countries, which was held on Thursday 23 November. English A Level student Ylenia Schembri and English Intermediate students Jake Johnson and Yevgeny Spiteri translated a narrative text on the mythological legend of light and dawn entitled Awrora from Maltese to English.
Participating in the contest, with the assistance of Dr Patricia Vella Briffa, was a most enjoyable experience, as the students had the opportunity of working with the two different languages as they translated a variety of texts, while also gaining a realistic experience of the field.
