The Xewkija Local Council organized an outing to Malta on the occasion of the Mother's Day 2005.  The activity was held on Sunday the 15th of May.  The Mayor Dr Monica Vella and Councilors Teddy Mizzi and Donald Pace helped during this activity.

Mothers and their families, especially children were invited for this relaxing outing.  The group which consisted of 120 person departed by the 7.30am ferry to Malta.  The first visit was to the Marsaxlokk popular market.  Then while some of the group stayed at the market, those who had children went to the Playmobil Fun Park at around noon.  At the Fun Park children enjoyed playing while also having a snack.  Parents too relaxed and had a snack at the Playmobil Cafeteria.

Then the group visited Mdina and afterwards attended the mass at the Chapel of Dun Gorg Preca.  Rev. Michael Xuereb celebrate the mass with the participation of all the group.
