ELMLE Malta - Navigate the Way

What a fantastic weekend of learning and connecting on the magnificent island of Malta! Our 39th annual conference was a huge success thanks to our teacher presenters, featured speakers, exhibitors, the Hilton hotel staff, and the sunshine! We've issued a call to action around our theme of Navigate the Way in order to explore, discover and experience ways we can design a middle school experience that equips students to navigate adolescence with resilience, curiosity, and the skills to thrive. What was the one thing that you committed to during the conference? How will you make an impact, and what will you share next year in Prague?

Remember that all of the session handouts and resources are on the Whova App, and everything will be available until the end of April. If there is anything you'd like to make sure you have access to for a longer time, be sure to download it!

Thanks again for your engagement and for expanding our professional network. If you're feeling inspired, consider submitting an article for the Bridge in the Middle blog. We look forward to celebrating our 40th with you in Prague next year!

Share our Practice

The call for presenters is closed for this year, but think about what you'd like to share next year in Prague, and check back here soon for a list of the exciting sessions on offer! You can also learn more about the Pre-Conference Sessions, Featured Speakers and Hotel and Travel Information at the links.

Each year our conference is enriched by educators like you sharing best practice. Teacher presenters bring a high caliber of professionalism, and they encourage collaboration among colleagues. What a great opportunity to share the work that is going on in various international schools across Europe and beyond!

Logo designer, Hazel, shows off her winning design.

Love our Logo? We do too!

The votes are in, and the winning logo designer for our #ELMLEMalta 2025 conference is Hazel Chaeeun (Hazel) Kim. Hazel is a 7th grader at the American International School of Budapest. She'll receive an Amazon gift certificate (and eternal fame)! Her nominated teacher will receive a complimentary Pre-Conference registration to #ELMLEMalta.

In this real-world learning experience, students were asked to include the theme of the conference. As part of the design brief, they were provided with the HEX codes for the ELMLE colors and a vector copy of the official ELMLE logo to incorporate into the design. The ELMLE Steering Committee received more than 50 entries!
