BRIGADA ESKWELA NARRATIVE REPORT

August 14 – 19, 2023

During the 6-day Brigada Eskwela from August 14 to 19, 2023, I, as a

teacher, actively participated in various activities aimed at preparing our
school for the upcoming academic year. Before the implementation, our
School Facilities Coordinator assessed the physical facilities and
maintenance needs with the help of the Education Physical Facilities
Division, School Watching Team, and Parents-Teachers Association. We
strictly adhered to the prohibition of solicitation and focused on voluntary
work.
On day 1, the energy was palpable as volunteers, including eager
learners and dedicated parents, gathered to start Brigada Eskwela. Our
initial task was a campus-wide clean-up involving sweeping the grounds to
remove litter and debris. We ensured each volunteer's attendance was
meticulously recorded, appreciating their commitment from day one.
The teamwork was inspiring as we assessed classrooms for unnecessary
decorations and posters. Oversized signages with commercial content were
taken down, aligning with the guidelines. Volunteers demonstrated their
dedication as they meticulously removed distractions from classroom walls.
We ensured clean schools by clearing classrooms of unnecessary materials,
decorations, and signage per the guidelines. As we wrapped up the day, we
acknowledged and thanked each participant, recognizing their vital role in
the process With a mix of determination and enthusiasm, volunteers,
including parents and students, continued to contribute to our cause. On
the final day, we united to reflect on our collective accomplishments.
Learners, parents, and community members took pride in the transformed
school environment. Our gratitude is extended to the donors who provided
essential resources, from cash donations to materials like paint and mops.
Their contributions have been instrumental in realizing our goals. As we
looked ahead, plans were discussed to sustain this spirit of cooperation and
ensure an even more successful Brigada Eskwela.
