SPANISH TOWN, St. Catherine:
THE LABOUR Day activities in and around Spanish Town were well supported by several groups and citizens who turned out to do voluntary work.
Several members of the Jamaica Police Academy, along with the Social Development Commission, carried out beautification work on a park along Nugent Street.
At the nearby St. Jago Preparatory School, volunteers from the Spanish Town Kiwanis Club, under the watchful eyes of the St. Catherine Traffic Department, repainted the pedestrian crossing.
According to President Abdon Campbell, the Kiwanis Club aims to improve the lives of children. The club visited the Spanish Town Hospital Children's Ward where the windows were remeshed at a cost of $104,000.
In Ebony Vale, residents also cleaned several areas of the community while, in Naggo Head, members of the National Association of Taxi Operators cleaned the park and repainted pedestrian crossings.
