The Family Picnic on the 1st of May has become an annual event. Early in the morning a group of parents gathered at the Youth Centre for the important ritual of preparing packed lunches consisting of ‘ftajjar’, potato chips, a chocolate and a bottle of water for the 80 ramblers who by 9 o’clock had assembled in front of St. Patrick’s School. A coach and a mini-bus dropped the group at the vicinity of Dar tal-Providenza (in the limits of Siggiewi). From there the group started walking towards the Chapel of San Niklaw.
