May 06 - Plater Youth Club Hosts Spring Fun Day
Plater Youth Club, in conjunction with the RGP, opened its doors to the many young families in our community on Sunday 7th April as part of the Club’s Spring Fun Day. A group of the Club’s younger regulars had also volunteered to help out with the food and refreshments.
A pleasant variety of amusing activities were on offer on the day, comprising superhero demonstrations, different games, treasure hunts, face painting and a fun photo booth experience. Hot dogs and flavoursome drinks were served, much to the delight of many. Ultimately, the Fun Day had proved to be just that – a fun packed and thoroughly enjoyed event for all involved. Bringing about so much joy to young people in particular always corroborates to being a very uplifting and rewarding affair. It is also one of the reasons the Youth Services constantly endeavours to cater, host and partake in such events.
Tomorrow a group of five cyclists will carry out a 635 kilometre cycle from Fatima in Portugal in order to collect funds towards local registered charities, Breast Cancer and Alzheimer's and Dementia support groups. The cyclists will average 130 Kms.
The Government has today claimed that the openness of the Development and Planning Commission has proved extremely popular amongst the public and the press.

The Chief Minister, Fabian Picardo, is travelling to Madrid today to fulfill a number of engagements.
