SFAS celebrated last Oct. 4, 2007 the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi and the birthday of our foundress, Mrs. Marietta Ledesma. We started with a mass then different games for the students, e.g. who among the preschoolers can say "St. Francis of Assisi" holding his/her breath the longest, forming the puzzle of the saint (as shown in the 2nd photo). The 2nd graders won the best chorale presentation of the Prayer of St. Francis with one of their classmates dressed up as the saint interpreting the poem thru movement. Since St. Francis was a lover of animals, a contest on the student who could best mimic animals sounds was held also, e.g. pig, horse, monkey, bird. A special treat came our way as well as one of the owners of the school, Mrs. Margie Ledesma-Abello, donated a whole pig. Mothers came to barbecue the pork and serve to all the students for lunch.
