SACFest, the traditional three-day festival organized by St Aloysius College took place at the end of May in the college grounds at Birkirkara.

This year’s program, created and organized by the school staff together with over 120 students included sports, exhibitions, a funfair, live music, dancing and a prayer tent. One of the innovative highlights was the 52-hour running marathon, the Gatorade Charity Running Challenge, organized on the initiative of Fr Patrick Magro SJ and open to the public: “It is a way of being connected to the many people running the marathons of life”, Fr Patrick explained.

The festival also offered in-formation and science stands, martial arts exhibitions and interesting workshops in the grounds as well as workshops for parents on how to deal with addictions in young people and how to deal with family relationships
