BCNHS scouts conduct Project REGALO

BURAUEN COMPREHENSIVE NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL Scouting Organization carried out Project “REGALO: Remembering the Essence of Celebrating God’s Birth with Love for Others, a gift giving program held at Brgy. Caanislagan, Burauen Leyte, January 2, 2023.

Since the country was in the grip of a pandemic, the organization conducted house-to-house caroling as well as an online fundraising campaign using social media platforms in order to raise fund for the said project.

“After raising funds, we purchased and repacked the items that would be given to the recipients” Sr. Girl Scout Ianne Rose Aterrado said in the interview conducted by the Dove.

The project’s recipients were 22 indigent families, 58 school children, and 32 senior residents received supplies, grocery packs, loot bags, and other items.

“This indeed is a rewarding activity that we have been doing for several years already’, Mrs. Elma Seno MAPEH and SPA Coordinator said in an interview conducted by The Dove.

Banning the use of phones during class hours was the lowest at 4.17%.

“I hope that these financial requirements will be lessened, given that not everyone can afford them,” expressed Julie Endiape, Grade 11 student. Reduction of projects was next with 15%, and was noted mostly by Grade 12 learners.

Other issues that landed among the top five topics are decreasing class sizes and shortening school hours, together with 11.66%.

“I really don’t see how they expect us to do our schoolwork during school breaks. At this point, holidays can no longer be referred to as rest days.”
