• The Fun Day is part of a planned series of fun events to be held at the Alba Camp in January, February and March.

Aluminium Bahrain (Alba) held the first of its three planned fun events for employees' children at the Alba Camp in Sakhir.

More than 600 children participated in the Fun Day event, which involved lots of games, snacks and refreshments. The children were from a diverse age group, from 3 to 14, and fun activities were organised accordingly.

Alba's Public Relations Manager, Dr. Khalid Jassim Bomtaia commented on this event:

"This is the first time we have organised such an event at the Alba Camp, and we hope to make this a regular activity every year. The Alba Camp has continued to be a huge success because of its unique location in the desert and the state-of-the-art facilities being provided, and it is for this reason, we felt it would be an ideal venue for holding a series of fun events for children in the first three months of the year."

Alba has been consistently ranked as one of the largest aluminium smelters in the world and is known for its technological strength and innovative policies. It has maintained a high track record for safety and continues to enforce strict environmental guidelines and has surpassed production targets set for the year. It supports numerous community oriented programmes and social activities that have underlined its status as one of Bahrain's leading industrial organisations that remains fully committed to its corporate social responsibility.
