St Joseph Day Care Centre in Żejtun has been fitted with wall-to-wall play mats in line with the HSBC Malta Foundation’s mission to offer children a better quality of life and education.

The centre is open throughout the week to provide children under three with valuable social learning experiences. Fourteen children are currently benefitting from the centre’s services.

“The dedicated assistance offered by the centre is invaluable for the development of children during their first years,” said HSBC Malta Foundation deputy chairwoman Sarah Watkinson.

“The children clearly enjoy their time here very much, while having colourful mats covering the entire floor helps make the play area all the more fun and safe for them.”

St Joseph Day Care Centre also works with parents to organise outings for the children.

The foundation manages a wide range of corporate sustainability programmes with a focus on three key areas: improving the quality of life for children, achieving a more sustainable environment and preserving Malta’s rich heritage.
