About Gozo

If you are looking for an unforgettable language learning experience which combines relaxation, entertainment and guaranteed improvement in your English, then our school in Gozo is your destination.

LAL Gozo is located in Ghajnsielem, within walking distance of Mgarr Harbour where ferries run regularly taking just 20mins to cross to and from the main island of Malta. Ghajnsielem is an attractive village with a strong sense of community and a thriving social life.

The village of Ghajnsielem is a harmonious and peaceful region of Gozo. It is a self-sufficient village, with two grocers, selling all your daily needs, an excellent butcher, bakeries and a large fish shop. Nearby is a pharmacy and a bookshop as well as a post office. Vans pass through the village every morning selling fresh fruit and vegetables, freshly caught fish and newly baked bread.

In the Band club near the centre of Ghajnsielem you can taste a typical local wine and homemade pizza, play pool and observe Gozitan village life. The No. 25 bus, which works in conjunction with the ferry timetable, leaves Mgarr Harbour and passes the school every 30 minutes in the direction of the capital Victoria.

Ghajnsielem has three restaurants where you can taste the local cuisine and is situated only a few minutes walk from the Grand Hotel and also Mgarr Harbour with its lively choice of bars and restaurants.  At the end of August the village celebrates the Feast of Saint Loreto with a week of processions, band music, fireworks and fun.  The school always throws a big party and students can have a drink together and observe the lively entertainment from the school balcony, before joining the procession and following the band into the main square.
