In celebration of World Post Day on Thursday 9 October 2014, the Royal Gibraltar Post Office (RGPO) will launch the 2015 Letter-Writing Competition on behalf of the United Nations’ (UN) Universal Postal Union (UPU).
The competition is open to pupils who attend school in Gibraltar and are aged between 9 and 15.
A group of six Gibraltar students are currently in New York and will be attending the Chief Minister's address to the United Nations' Fourth Committee later today.
Dismissing claims by the Chief Minister that the Opposition ignored warnings ‘about the need to upgrade the electricity distribution system following the 2005 report’ whilst in Government, the GSD has insisted that Gibraltar would have a New Power Station and distribution system, had the GSLP/ Liberal Government not scrapped the contract.
Next weekend will mark the Royal Marines 350th birthday celebrations in Gibraltar, with the Rock Run, Postal Walk, Gala Cocktail Reception, Royal Marines Band Concert and Freedom Parade.
The Royal Marines Band from Scotland are very much looking forward to staging a musical and visual extravaganza in St Michael’s Cave from 8pm on Sunday 26th October.
