TEACHING ‘EM YOUNG

These primary pupils of the Philippine Christian University (PCU) – Dasmariñas Campus get to experience becoming brave firefighters heroically averting disaster that could affect a great number of people. The simulation exercise happened during the children’s visit to the Kidzania Manila last Feb. 20. This off-campus activity happens every year to let the pupils explore and learn outside of the school setting. “I am glad I joined this field trip because I learned a lot of things like the value of working hard, earning and saving money,” said Axcel Aguilar, a Grade VI pupil.
