The 2nd meeting for the Ibang Klase project will be on May 10, Saturday, 4 PM in Makati (venue TBA). For those who wish to attend, please leave a message or send an SMS or YM to Mic or Markku.
About the project:
“Ibang Klase” aims to provide children (from the area in front of Pisay) with an alternative classroom experience that highlights nationalism, environmentalism, and volunteerism. These issues will be discussed through non-traditional methods such as story-telling, arts and crafts, and poetry. This project is reminiscent of the Saturday tutorials that as high school students, we used to give to our public school counterparts. We are hoping to reach out to approximately 50 grade school-level children and 15-20 teenagers.
Date: May 24, 1:00 – 5:00 PM
Venue: Pisay Diliman
There will be a meeting at 8:00 PM tonight, 11 April 2008, at Treehouse along Matalino Street, Quezon City. We will be discussing our upcoming events, including the Ibang Klase (Alternative Classroom Learning Program, initially for children in the community in front of Pisay, and in cooperation with RockEd Philippines) and the proposed Earth Day project (clean-up climb or mangrove planting, c/o Peng).
Your support and cooperation are essential to the success of our projects. So for those of you who haven’t made any plans for tonight, we hope you can join us in planning for our upcoming events.
RE: ON-LINE pre-registration for the Alumni Homecoming September 1, 2007
To enable us to provide a very organized and enjoyable Alumni Homecoming evening on September 1, 2007 we have created an ON-LINE pre-registration. What are the advantages of registering on-line?
The 2007 Pisay Alumni Basketball League started last July 1 at the PSHS Gym, with 6 games played. Recap of the batch’s first game (vs Batch 98) is as follows:
In easily the biggest game of the opening playdate, two-time champions Batch 96 edged 3-time runners-up Batch 98, 57-55 in OT. Batch 96, featuring the dynamic duo of Jon “The Answer” Aguirre and Peng “Frisbee” Manlapaz, had a chance to ice the game in regulation, but missed FTs allowed 98 to tie and send the game to an extra period. 96 proved steadier in OT however, as they contained Karlo “The Triggerman” Hombrebueno and big man Andrew Pinlac scoreless in the last 5 minutes. Manlapaz led 96with 23 points, supported by Aguirre’s 13. Hans “Macho Man” Acain and Hombrebueno led 98 with 16 points apiece.
Sa Sabado na, July 7, yung project natin sa Bilibid Maximum Security. Kasama natin ang Rock Ed dito at madami tayong gagawin para sa mga kapwa natin Pilipino na nasa loob ng Munti. Pati na rin para sa mga pamilya nila. Sama ka.
Kulang pa tayo sa transpo budget, saka medyo magulo pa yung mga gagamitin na sasakyan sa pagsundo ng mga banda. Kung may konti kang barya, malaki maitutulong nyan. Kung pupunta ka naman at makakapagdala ng sasakyan, mabuti din yan para maisakay mo yung iba nating batchmates at iba pang volunteers. Or basta pumunta ka lang, sigurado may maitutulong ka. Pero kelangan sabihin mo na agad kay Michelle/Jao/Joey para ma-register yung pangalan mo.
it’s been more than a month since we’ve had any updates concerning our ongoing projects. so here we go.
albert camacho bookdrive: we’re still in the process of pooling books and selecting the beneficiary for the drive. so kung may pahabol pa kayong books o suggestions na beneficiary schools, sige lang at magsabi kayo sa kinauukulang mga partido.
concert sa bilibid: a tentative date has been set (sometime in july). the remaining things that we still have to worry about are manpower (magsabi kayo kung makakapunta kayo) and transportation (shout out to jeff galan. hehe). arrangements concerning other aspects of the project are being handled by other parties already. as always though, any help would be much appreciated. just say so.
and as a bonus, here’s the slide show presentation of the streetkids christmas party held in up diliman last december. para maipakita naman natin ang isang project na natapos natin ng maayos. enjoy.
