Babal-Lasioan ES Celebrates Success of Let’s P.L.A.Y. After-School Program

STA. MARIA, ILOCOS SUR — The covered court of Babal-Lasioan Elementary School was filled with energy and pride yesterday, March 12, as pupils, faculty, and international guests gathered for the culminating program of the Let’s P.L.A.Y. After-School Program.

The event, which commenced at 2:00 PM, served as a vibrant showcase of the talents and skills developed by the pupils through the initiative. The program opened with a solemn doxology performed by Grade 2 pupils, followed by a warm welcome from Ms. Susan Pulanco, OIC of the Office of the Head Teacher III.

Adding a prestigious flair to the afternoon, 10 national delegates attended the ceremony to witness the impact of the program firsthand. Their presence underscored the importance of grassroots athletic and artistic development in the region.

The program reached an emotional high point during the testimonial of Mae Angeline Albano, a Grade 6 pupil. She shared how the program helped build her confidence—a sentiment echoed by the various intermission numbers that followed. The crowd was treated to a diverse display of skills, including:

• Arnis and Gymnastics demonstrations.
• Musical performances and Reading showcases.
• A lively Hula-hoop exhibition that brought cheers from the audience.

While performances took place on stage, the grounds of the school became a living gallery. Selected pupils engaged in "on-the-spot" art activities, including painting and sketching.

The creativity of the students was officially recognized during the awarding ceremony. Mae Angeline Albano achieved double honors by securing first place in the Poster Slogan Making contest, while Jacob Winxel Dato earned the second place spot.

The event also highlighted the strong collaboration between the school and the private sector. Michee San Pascual, Corporate Affairs and Compliance Director of ULPI, delivered an inspiring message emphasizing the value of holistic student development.
In a gesture of mutual appreciation:
• ULPI employees and contest winners received certificates of recognition.
• School teachers were awarded certificates by ULPI for their dedication to the program’s success.

The afternoon concluded with closing remarks from Mr. Renato P. Valdez Jr., MT-I, who expressed gratitude to the partners and parents who made the program possible. The event was capably moderated by hosts Jecridomiva Pablo and Renato Valdez Jr.

Under the banner "We Study, We Strive, We Succeed," the Babal-Lasioan community proved that learning doesn't stop when the school bell rings—it simply takes a more creative form.
