The Choice Programme for the scholastic year 2006/07 organised by the Malta Tourism Authority's Industry HR Development Unit, came to a close with the awarding of prizes and certificates to secondary school students who took part in the programme.

The main objective was to heighten tourism awareness and promote careers in the tourism industry among secondary school students.

The course included an overview of the industry, the opportunities for candidates, and an onsite tour, either at a hotel, restaurant, travel agency, Heritage Malta or Malta International Airport.

The first prize, an educational trip to Budapest, was won by Mark Cilia and Mark Saliba from the Archbishop's Seminary in Rabat with their project A Cocktail Of Diversity.

The second prize, a weekend break in a locally-based hotel, was awarded to Dylan Said and James Camilleri from De La Salle College in Cospicua. Their project was called Destination Malta.

The third prize, consisting of a set of limited edition books, was won by Maria Formosa, Sarah Farrugia and Shelley Aquilina from the Convent of the Sacred Heart in St Julians. The project dealt with A taste Of Maltese Cuisine.
