🇵🇭 Celebrating Philippine Independence Day 🇵🇭
Last Friday, our tamariki enjoyed learning about and celebrating Philippine Independence Day through a variety of meaningful and fun experiences.
Together, we proudly sang the Philippine National Anthem, providing an opportunity for children to hear and appreciate an important part of Filipino culture and identity. The children also had great fun participating in a traditional Filipino game, Tumbang Preso, where they practised teamwork, coordination, and turn-taking while enjoying active play outdoors.
To extend their learning, the children engaged in a creative art and craft activity inspired by the Philippine flag and colours. Through these experiences, they explored cultural diversity, developed a sense of belonging, and celebrated the rich heritage that makes up our learning community.
A heartfelt thank you to all our whānau who support us in embracing and sharing different cultures within our centre. Together, we create a learning environment where every child’s identity and culture are valued and celebrated.
Mabuhay! 🇵🇭❤️💙💛
