Together with our valued partners, Pickle & Friends Co. and Cross Court Club alongside NU Clark Faculty and Student Volunteers conducted the repacking of learning materials under Project KABANATA, June 16.

This milestone was made possible through the generosity of the pickleball community players and donors. Through their respective Open Play For-a-Cause events, Pickle & Friends Co. and Cross Court Club collectively raised PHP 49,555.

Meanwhile, today’s activity successfully produced 300 sets of learning kits intended for primary-level learners from our partner schools.

Maraming salamat, P&F and CCC! We also would like to personally thank Ms. Bea Reyes and Mr. Ynan Caspillo for your support to today’s repacking initiative.

The School of Engineering, Architecture, and Technology (SEAT) conducted simultaneous community engagement activities at Madapdap Elementary School and Basa Air Base National High School.

At Basa Air Base National High School, the Civil Engineering Department carried out an assessment and structural audit of selected school facilities.

Findings from the assessment will be consolidated into a technical report that will be formally turned over to the school administration to support future maintenance and infrastructure planning efforts.

Meanwhile, the Architecture Department likewise launched the Replast Project in collaboration with the Supreme Student Council of Basa Air Base National High School. The initiative seeks to collect plastic waste generated within the school and transform the materials into usable armchairs through recycling and upcycling processes. The project promotes environmental stewardship while providing sustainable solutions for school furniture needs.

In support of digital transformation efforts within the school, the Information Technology Department met with the school principal and key personnel to discuss the development and validation of a School Employee Portal.

This proposed system aims to automate the submission, monitoring, and validation of documents among teaching personnel, streamlining administrative processes and improving operational efficiency.

Lastly, the Communication Department also further discussed future plans for Project Tinta, a journalism training and development program designed to enhance the competencies of campus journalists which was implemented with the school in AY 2025-2026.

The Communication Department’s initiative aims to equip student writers with the skills necessary to become competitive participants in future division, regional, and national journalism competitions, including the National Schools Press Conference (NSPC).

Through the collective efforts of SEAS, SEAT, and SABM, NU Clark continues to demonstrate its commitment to responsive community engagement, educational development, environmental sustainability, and innovation.

We would like to express our sincerest appreciation to our partner schools for your trust and confidence to NU Clark and for opening opportunities to participate in your respective Brigada Eskuwela initiatives.
