Buwan ng Wika Celebration: Culmination Day

SFAS celebrated Buwan ng Wika with a "bang" during it's Culmination Day last August 28, 2009.
Of course, EVERY student and FACULTY/STAFF (including some parents) wore Filipiniana attire.

Contests were held like the Chorale Tula between Grades 1 to 3, Vocal Solo of any Original Pilipino Music between Grades 4 to 6 and the high school, and the Pop Dance Contest between high school.


Parlor games were played such as sack race, planting rice, crab race and "bunot" race (coconut husk). The highlight of the games was the Palo Sebo where the boys had to climb a bamboo pole and get the flag at the top most. What's the catch? The pole is rubbed with oil.


Thanks to our dearest parents who made the celebration very festive by building native huts around the field, selling native food and drinks. Smoke filled the air with the heavenly smell of grilled food, from fish to chicken to pork!
