PCA Cookfest 2010


The Parent Council Association (PCA) joined the school celebrate Nutrition Month in July thru a cooking contest among parents of each grade / year level. Kinder and Prep parents had to prepare any dish using the ingredient, alogbati (a leafy vegetable very common to the Philippines). The Kinder parents won with their tasty Guisadong Monggo dish (bean soup). Grades 1 to 3 parents had to prepare Guisadong Monggo dish and the 3rd Graders won as they used native chicken to make their dish tastier than the others. Grades 4 to 6 parents had to prepare a dish using available vegetables from the backyard garden, chopseuy style. The 6th graders won as their presentation was the best and others used canned vegetables, e.g. button mushrooms and young corn and broccoli, a vegetable not commonly grown. High school parents had to prepare any dish using the ingredient, kangkong (a vegetable wherein the leaves and stems are edible). The parents of the Senior class won as they prepared a delicious Ginataang Kangkong ala Pinakbet.

A big thank you to our dear parents who enthusiastically and wholeheartedly gave their time and resource in making the cookfest a success!

And special thanks to our judges as well: Mrs. Michelle Uy-Gerona, owner of Misyel's Catering Services in Bacolod City; Ms. Tess Mallorca, a retired SFAS teacher; and Mrs. June Abello, a food lover.
