A new record! Zejtun’s St Thomas More school build the biggest Christmas sock structure ever in Malta
A successful effort!

Emma Galea

A new national Maltese record has been broken at the Zejtun St Thomas More middle and secondary school.

The school built the largest Christmas sock structure Malta had ever seen.

It has a height of 9 metres, a 6.20metres base and it is 1.07metres deep.

The impressively large sock was made entirely from wood, wire, metal, plastic and fabric.

This was all done as part of the ‘Qalb il-Milied’ event that was organised at the school in aid of ‘Dar il-Providenza’.
