Not always necessary however if (once play starts) you can't see a little red "HD" label on the SETTINGS icon (a gear wheel) then click it and set playback quality to 720p. If you get pauses or stutter in your playback it means that your broadband can't support the higher video resolution at that time. In this situation use the SETTINGS icon (gear wheel) to reduce playback quality to 480 (or even 360) until the video plays smoothly.
The video can optionally be viewed full screen by clicking the broken rectangle icon at bottom right inside the viewing window (accessed by moving cursor into screen area once play has started). At full screen you'll probably find it better to sit a bit back from the screen as the result is a little blurry, however in my opinion it's a more immersive experience.

This video clip opens in the sandy area behind blocks 8, 9 and 10. It starts with a brief shot of the netball court and then shows us back views of blocks 8 and 9 and the shaded area behind Block 10.
We're taken up the steps leading from Block 10 to the road where we get a good view of the gym and changing rooms, the long side of the school hall, the entrance to the Admin building and views of blocks 8, 9 and 10 from the road. Next the video moves to the front of the main entrance of the school hall and we walk up the steps through the porch and into the hall where we take a good look around before returning to the entrance door.

This video clip starts with a shot of the flagpoles in the top end of the Admin garden (flags of Malta and EU). The bust is of the first Liceo Vassalli headmaster, John Michael Testa (1981-86). Panning clockwise there is a shot of Block-11 (the NAAFI or "school dinner block") and the Liceo Vassalli Tuck Shop. The video looks up the side of Block-12 (on left) to the open tarmac area. Left to right we see the end of the Science Block (Block-13), Classroom Block-1, the single story classroom Block-14 and immediately across the road is the boys' toilet block.
The video them switches to the roadway between Block-9 (on left) and the gym (on right). Next we see the "New" Music Room (Block 17). We pass the netball court on the right and two of the Romney blocks: Block-6 and Block-5 on the left. The video continues with with an end view of Block-7 and looking across the road to a side-on view of Block-6. Finally we look back down the road for a last look at the gym.

The video starts in the bus parking area with a shot of the little handyman building. The camera then pans across the back of Block-7 (the Romney classroom block with the long side-extension). We see Block-6 across the road then a shot of the tennis/basketball court with blocks 8 and 9 behind and finally a view of Liceo Vassalli's enclosed football pitches.
The Scene switches to Block-17 (the music room). We walk behind the gym and changing rooms and look down the walkway between the school hall (R) and changing rooms (L). We turn right and walk up the path towards blocks 4 and 5 (ahead). Looking to our right we see Block-6 between the end of Block-17 (R) and Block-5 (L).
We follow Mandy along the walkway at the end of Block-4 (other buildings can be seen behind a planted area) taking a look back at the side of Block-4 before continuing along the path in front of Block-3.
Leaving the path we take a look inside a ground floor classroom in Block-15. The camera then pans along the front of Block-15, the back of Block-16 and across the boys toilet block before entering an empty classroom at the back of single story Block-14.
We look through a classroom window into what looks like a science classroom (not quite sure which block this is as the reflections are a bit puzzling?).
Finally we take a last look around the top of the school: Block-1, the Science Block, the Tuck Shop and "Mr Plants building" next to Block-12.
