YES-O Camp

Handa Ka Na Ba? Climate Change Adaptation: The Next Level

That was the theme of our Youth for Environment in Schools Organization (YES-O) Camp held last September 6, 2012 at Pamplona High School, Camarines Sur. It was a day full of learning not only for the students but also for the teachers. I personally was amazed of the talents each contestant allowed us to be witnessed.

My school, Malansad Nuevo High School, sent three participants to compete in Essay Writing, Poster Making, and Environmental Quiz. I am so proud of these students for they exerted all their best.

1. Lizza Albuero, 2nd place, Essay Writing
2. Mary Ann Callos, 7th place, Poster Making
3. Elsever Aguenza, 11th place, Environmental Quiz

Other events competed by other school representatives are the following:

• Sayawit
• Sabayang Pagbigkas
• On-the-Spot Photo Exhibit
• Debate
• Search for Lakan at Lakambini ng Kalikasan (highlight event)

It was a success. Congratulations to the winners. Below are some of the photos taken during the one-day activity.
