BTTHS Celebrated Nutrition Month
Ronifyn M. Baloco, Third Year A
This year, the school celebrated the Nutrition Month with the theme "Wastong Nutrisyon Kailangan, Lifestyle Diseases Iwasan," headed by Ms. Mary Grace Ma-fnaril, from July 24 to July 31, 2009.
The elementary pupils had the following programs for each grade level: Food Riddles-Grade 1, Puzzle Game - Grade 2, Vegetable-Eating-Grade 3, Search for Mr. and Ms. Nutrition -Grade 4, Jingle-Making Contest-Grade 5, and Market Market Game-Grade 6.
For the high school students, on the other hand, this Nutrition Month program was something new since they had never taken part in any Nutrition Month activities before (as high school students). Except for the Canvas-Making Contest which was held in advance, the highlight of their activity was last July 31, 2009 when all the contests like Cooking , Jingle-Making and the Dance Exercise Contests were held.
The students and pupils enjoyed the events so much. In fact, laughters and cheers echoed the auditorium during the celebration's culminating activity.
The Nutrition Month was a success with the support of the elementary and high school teachers, Mrs. Ruth V. Espiso and especially Mrs. Nilda M. Monge. Students hoped to have another exciting and fun-filled activity like this next year. Indeed, learning doesn't always happen in the four corners of the classroom. This is another learning experience that Taytungians will never forget.
