Christmas on Campus 2021
Time to reconnect

The festive season is with us again and the feeling is present on campus - Christmas electrical decorations light up the UM buildings, the crib and Christmas tree are in Atriju Vassalli and there is festive background music too.

This year's theme is Time to reconnect and the inauguration will be held on Tuesday 7 December on the Quadrangle (weather permitting).

All fundraising activities will be in aid of L-Istrina and id-Dar tal-Providenza and all activities on the Quadrangle will be under the Christmas on Campus tent or next to the Christmas tree. In case of bad weather conditions, activities will be moved inside the Food Faculty (Canteen) or in the Chapel.
