Mitt Sena Brigade-Poezija

Mitt Sena Brigades

F’mitt sena ta’ storja glorjuza
b’tant zghazagh u tfal li gawdew,
f’mitt sena ta’ storja famuza
il-Brigade ghadu sod, kif ghaddew!

Il-Brigade Salesjana tfakkar
Ne Cede Malis motto fin.
F’ghexieren snin kulhadd ifahhar
l-impenn taz-zghazagh ferhanin

Dan il-Brigade bi storja kbira
maghruf ghad-drill u ghall-parati
b’dik l-uniformi li tammira
bil-banda ddoqq ippreparati

Don Bosco maghna kuljum, kull hin
u b’San Bastjan mudell zghazugh,
b’Marija Ghajnuna tul s-snin
dan il-Brigade ghad ghandu ruh

Fl-elfejn u ghaxra niccelebraw

Bosco Summer School - First Meeting

The 10 of March saw the official take off for this year’s Summer School at the Oratory in Sliema. The first of a series of formation meetings was held in the Theatre at St Patrick’s. During the two-hour session SPYS organized various activities for the leaders and pre-leaders of the Summer School, focusing mainly on Teamwork.

One Step Higher

A live-in was organized from the 5th to the 6th of March for the PreTeens Section of the Salesian Oratory in Sliema. The live in with the name of “one step higher” offered the 17 participants an opportunity to get in touch with their present life experience. Furthermore the sessions challenged the preteens present to make positive decisions in life. The fulcrum of the live in were the sessions on Saturday eve which ended by confession and adoration. As with every Salesian experience a fun and homely atmosphere reigned through the live in. A big thanks goes to the leaders.
