Department of Education’s annual ‘BrigadaEskwela’ prior to official opening of classes on August 24 was atypical this year as they launched virtual program far from the usual school cleanup, classroom repaint, and repairs.
DepEd’s ‘Bayanihan 2020’ is focused on strengthening collaboration with different sectors and private stakeholders to ensure that quality education is not compromised amidst pandemic through a provision of opportunities under the department’s Learning Continuity Plan.
Enchanted Kingdom (EK) president and CEO Mario Mamon, reaffirms its support to DepEd during the launch of joint BrigadaEskwela and OplanBalikEskwela Program.
“Please consider EK your unique and alternative learning venue as we collectively seek various ways to effectively implement the basic education learning continuity plan of the department this coming school year. We are still in uncertain and challenging times, but with the Filipino Bayanihan spirit, we shall move forward and overcome as one,” Mamon said.
Mamon said EK continuously maximizes the use of social media as a tool for learning.
“Through its fun and creative edutainment programs and activities, children can still acquire academic learnings as taught in the classrooms, it also provides innovative sets of activities to help hone the child’s artistic skills,” Mamon said.
EK has been a staunch advocate of education. Over the years, the country’s leading theme park conducts adopt-a-school initiative from different schools in Calabarzon region transforming every classroom into an Enchanting Learning Zone.
BrigadaEskwela and OplanBalikEskwela program runs from June 1 to August 29.
