Eastern Regional Council Unveils ‘Tnax-il’ Book Free For All Year 5 And 6 Students

Nov 14 2024

The Eastern Regional Council has unveiled Tnax-il, a distinctive new book celebrating the heritage of the Eastern Region.

Developed as part of the 2024 Region of Culture initiatives, Tnax-il brings together the talents of 12 local authors, each contributing a story inspired by one of the twelve localities within the region.

This collection aims to strengthen cultural awareness and pride among young people, with copies being distributed free of charge to Year 5 and 6 students.

“This is an exciting moment for our community,” said Anthony Chircop, President of the Eastern Regional Council. “Tnax-il not only offers insights into our region’s unique heritage, but also inspires young readers to appreciate storytelling, tradition, and creativity as key aspects of their cultural identity.”

Parliamentary Secretary Dr. Alison Zerafa Civelli praised the initiative, highlighting how the book’s theme reflects the Eastern Region’s identity and vibrant cultural events throughout the year. “Tnax-il wonderfully captures the essence of our twelve localities, twelve authors, and twelve months of cultural celebration. This project demonstrates the power of storytelling in nurturing a strong sense of place and history among the next generation.”

By offering young readers a meaningful connection to their roots, Tnax-il encourages them to embrace and value their local heritage.

Adding to the event’s grandeur, King Charles III was among the esteemed guests, with other high-profile attendees like Andrew Scott, Chloé Zhao, Jodie Turner-Smith, Idris Elba, and filmmakers and producers Doug Wick, Lucy Fisher, and Michael Pruss.

Gladiator II continues the story of ancient Rome, centering on Lucius (played by Mescal), who, years after the death of the legendary Maximus, finds himself drawn into the violent world of the Colosseum.

As Rome falls under the grip of tyrannical emperors, Lucius, fueled by vengeance and honor, must confront his past to reclaim Rome’s former glory for its people. With themes of power, resilience, and justice, Gladiator II promises an epic return to the grandeur and brutality of Rome, reimagining its legacy for a new generation.

Local Animal Shelter Calls Out Neglect Of Pets

Nov 14 2024

The Association for Abandoned Animals (AAA) recently addressed neglectful pet owners in Malta through a heartfelt Facebook post.

They shared a photo of a once-healthy dog, now severely neglected, illustrating how poor treatment has transformed her and other pets “into a shadow of what they were.”

AAA urged potential pet owners to reconsider if they are not prepared to fully commit, saying, “Just do not get a pet if you are not willing to keep them as a full family member, with good food, good medical care, and love and attention.”

Although the dog’s blood tests came back normal, AAA reported that she was barely eating and had little energy, highlighting the emotional and physical toll of neglect.

The shelter’s message serves as a reminder of the responsibilities that come with pet ownership and the impact of compassion on animals’ well-being.
