On Friday, 27th August, the Salesian Pastoral Youth Service (SPYS) organized Chick-A-Boom- a 70s theme party, held at Ta' Fra Ben in Qawra, in aid of Salesian projects in Malta, India,Ghana and South America. More than 370 people attended the party collecting €2410.50.

With music by DJ Bob and a live performance by Mikaela, the crowd was entertained and taken back to the magic of the 70s, dancing the night away and bringing nostalgia to those
who lived them and envy to those who weren't as lucky.

The Most Fulfilling Experience Of My Whole Life

Posted on Thu 2nd September, 2010

Volunteering in Kenya, Africa was perhaps the most fulfilling experience of my whole life. I travelled with my friend and collaegue Claudine to Nyabondo Rehabilitation Centre, which catered for approximately 70 children with disabilities. As physiotherapists, our work with the children revolved mainly around physiotherapy sessions. However, during our free time we used to stay with the kids to draw, sing and play. On alternate days we attended a school for children with cerebral palsy, which was close by.

It was a hot Thursday afternoon, and I was on my way to the airport to Belgium for an adventure camp from the 20th till the 27th August. With butterflies in my stomach I approached the airport departure lounge still unsuspecting that I was about to start the best week of my life. As soon as we arrived at our destination in Brussels, we were warmly greeted by two of our trainers who quickly became our friends. The next day we headed back to the airport to meet the youths who were coming from Slovakia and Belgium.
