PHILIPPINES SCHOOLS VIE FOR SOUTHEAST ASIA’s MOST ECO-FRIENDLY LEARNING INSTITUTIONS

Dalawang paaralan sa Pilipinas ang nagpapaligsahan bilang most eco-friendly school bukod sa mga bansang miyembro ng Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).

Ang Dubinan Elementary School in Santiago City, Isabela at ang Ateneo de Davao University’s High School Unit in Davao City ang magrereprisinta ng bansa para sa 2015 ASEAN Eco-Schools Awards for elementary and high school categories na gaganapin sa ika-29 ng Hulyo hanggang sa ika-30 ng hulyo sa Nay Pyi Taw, Myanmar.

Ang dalawang paaralan din na ito ay naging national champion din sa 2013 National Search for Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Schools na inorganisa ng Environmental Management Bureau (EMB), an attached agency of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR).

Inorganisa ng gobyerno ng Myanmar, sa pakikiisa ng Japan-ASEAN Integration Fund and the ASEAN Secretariat, ang 2015 ASEAN Eco-Schools Awards ay may hangaring kilalanin ang pag-aaral ng institusyon na nagpapakita ng halaga sa kapaligiran. Ang kumpitisyong nakalinya ngayong taon kasama ng ASEAN Environment Year 2015 ay may temang “Empowering the Youth for a Green ASEAN Community.”

Ang mga pamantayan para sa parangal ay nahahati sa apat: school policy and administration; teaching modules and learning activities; facilities and environmental practices; and partnership and community outreach.

Ang Dubinan Elementary School ay naging nominado bilang pagkakaroon ng matibay na pagsunod at pagpapatupad ng pulisiya para sa ating kapaligiran at para katigan ang mga programa ng gobyerno at mga aktibidades nito. Nasa guro na ang maghayag ng aralin na tungkol sa pagprotekta sa kalikasan, pangasiwaan ang basura, pagtitipid sa tubig at elektrisidad, pag-iwas sa paninigarilyo at sa iba pang pabor sa programang pangkalikasan. Ang kanilang lesson plan ay nasuri at ang serye ng pag-obserba sa mga silid – aralan at ang pamamahala ay isinasagawa upang masubaybayan ang integrasyon ng temang pangkapaligiran sa kurikulum ng paaralan.

Ang mga guro ay sinasanay sa ibat ibang uri ng stratehiya at pamamaraan sa pagtuturo at paghahanda sa edukasyunal na materyales na bagay at naayon sa araling pangkalikasan at sa pangangailangan ng mga mag-aaral

Samantala, ang layuning pangkalikasan naman ng Ateneo de Davao University-High School Unit’s ay sumali sa pangangalaga ng ating ecosystem, proteksyonan ang ating biodiversity, at pagtatatag ng pagbabago sa enerhiya.

Ang programang pangkapaligiran ng Ateneo ay tinawag na “Ecoteneo” na may pananaw na luntian at makakalikasang campus at ang mga istudyante ay maging Masaya at magkaroon ng ecological lifestyle. Ito ay sumasang-ayon sa slogan ng Ateneo na “One with the Earth, at peace with humanity, in reconciliation with God.”

Sa isang kaugnay na pag-unlad, ang EMB ay nag-anunsyo na ang rehiyunal at ang pambansang pagsusuri sa proseso para sa 2015 National Search for Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Schools ay patuloy pa rin.

Ang kumpitisyon ay derektang tugon sa Republic Act No. 9512, or the National Environmental Awareness and Education Act of 2008. It is co-sponsored by the Department of Education, the Commission on Higher Education, Smart Communications Inc., Nestlé Philippines Inc., One Meralco Foundation Inc., and Land Bank of the Philippines.
