Bayanihan Acitvity: School General Cleaning Activity

I once invited to my Alma mater here in our Elementary School. I missed my childhood days here in our Elementary School in Manticao. Last day, I have lots of vacant times that is why I decided to take a visit here in Manticao Central School located in Manticao. Some of my teachers are already resign and there are lots of new teachers are still already replaced. But there are still few of my teachers are their giving a good education and teaching well to all children in the campus.

As I arrived of the place l, my teachers are very surprised and thankful for visiting and not forgetting my alma mater school. As I noticed, they are seems so busy doing something just like cleaning the classrooms and repainting the walls. One of my teacher asked me to take pictures of them while working so that they will have a documentary about the activities.

This is our walls here in our Science classroom, during my schools days this wall contains a yellow color paint only but now, the place is even better because of the drawings and arts on the walls.

This place was filled with mud when there is a heavy rain happens and there are lots of grasses and small trees grows in this place. But now, it is completely clean and they put more rocks and sands on the place so that there will be no mud anymore, and the children can freely play in this area. In fact, this is already a childrens playground. The room painted with an arts was my classroom during my Grade 5 school activities.

The comfort rooms is also beautify by painting and doing some art walls. It looks very attractive because of its colorful walls and some and all of the arts they put is more in educational porpuses. They also want to put more pathways here in this place, that is why they brought hollow blocks. Other teachers are busy cleaning and sweeping the place and this is very important so that the work will easily done.

Their are Parents who willingly volunteered to help fixing the place and mending the damage or destroyed school materials just like wooden chairs and tables. This two men are busy putting more design things inside of the Principal's office while others are also busy cleaning the walls, floors and ceilings. It is good that the place will become clean and well organized so that the visitors can relax and having fun watching the decorations inside of this office.

Other Parents are putting some paints in this steel bars or grills in the classroom. Others mending the cabinets used to stored books and other important documents and some are mending the water pipe in the classrooms. This is very important so that the water will not over flow everytime when the children used the faucets or comfort rooms. There are some people who gave a can of paint and this is very good activities that everyone are united and helping with each other.

It is also good that the floors should be well cleaned and attractive, and as for that they also brought floor mats. In an instant, they put it on the floor together with this glue so that the mats wont be removed from the place. The design of the mat is just like wooden thing and if we sees to the distance, we can really think that just like a real wood.

After The Bayanihan Cleaning Activities:

The school is already clean and ready for the next school years batch. I am very happy that my Alma mater contains a great achievement and enhancing the place. Children will be happy and willing to learn more and have fun of their school days because of the clean environment and relaxing place.

A Food for everyone

Before I went back home, I brought foods first just for them. The teachers are very thankful about the foods and they enjoyed eating together with the few Parents. I am very happy that the school are keep improving.

Bayanihan is a kind of activities that everyone are helping with each other and have a unity to do the tasks. This is a kind of good practices to all Filipinos here and it is a sign of peace, love and unity as one Nation and one society.
