AFFLIP School Visitation 2015: 
Awesome Experience!
Clever Class! Ms. Lyn Wilkinson with Teacher Djoanna Marie P. Bachinicha and the Grade II pupils.


     February 20, 2015 @ 2:00 PM, Friday. Our school welcomed once again the AFFLIP Board Members, Ms. Lyn Wilkinson, Mr. Pat and Mr John during their visit here at Leon A. Garcia Sr. Elementary School. They were accompanied by Ma'am Marilou A. Mendoza and Mr. Felix Suico. Mr. Glen L. Pardillo showed his best accommodation to the AFFLIP visitors. He, Sir Glen was thankful for the assistance extended to the school, the garden implements, the learning resources and the financial assistance extended to the four scholars; Emjay Demeterio, Jonalyn Mellores, Laika Sanchez and Teleron (whom they also had met).

     Mr. Pat, Mr. John and Ms. Lyn  visited the school gardens which were located at the back of the classrooms. They found some native vegetables growing healthy and productive. They also visited the on going expansion of the Feeding Center. Sir Glen was also eager to introduce Mrs. Fe Omega and Mrs. Michelle Masion to AFFLIP visitors since these teachers were exerting dedication to their profession and highly spirited inspite of their health condition. Ms. Lyn had a chance to observe Mrs. Djoanna Bachinicha class. Mrs. Bachinicha was having her Filipino Story Telling when Ms. Lyn sat on her class. Mrs. Bachinicha's class was commended to be clever because according to Ms. Lyn learning 3 languages on one setting was quite exemplary. Ms. Lyn also visited Mrs. Jessica's class and were awed when the pupils told her about the snakes they have read on the big books which were given by the AFFLIP Foundation. Ms. Lyn also relate her story about how her husband found two black and red snakes at the back of their house door.
     Their stay at Leon A. Garcia Sr. Elementary School lasted for few hours but the exchanging of ideas, experiences and learnings were remarkably enriching.
