Make sure you don't end up too close to the sewage treatment plant (located east of Xghajra).

Hi Natalie,

I have a house in Zejtun....and I loved it! (now living in Portugal).  Zejtun is a small village not close at all to the sewage plant.  In the centre, the village life is fascinating, the old ladies selling flowers in the old pushchairs, the village square with the banks and shops around it, the weekly market on Wednesdays, the fish seller next to the school, and a lot of friendly people.

It depends on what school you are looking for.  I used to send my 2 year old to the private nursery at the nuns (Chapel of the Holy Spirit) and I loved them.  There are public and catholic schools for older children, but I don't think there are any private schools in Zejtun- the nearest would be St. Edward's College in Cottonera which is quite near.

Thank you for your reply. We have decided on Gozo. I'm visiting the school in February, fingers crossed all goes well
