Enchanted Kingdom Turns Over 10th and 11th Brigada Eskwela Classroom

Enchanted Kingdom, the first and only world-class theme park in the Philippines, turned over its 10th and 11th adopted classrooms to the Southville Elementary School, Santa Rosa on July 26. Two (2) Kindergarten classrooms were adopted for improvement in support of the 2024 Brigada Eskwela of the Department of Education (DepEd). 

The Brigada Eskwela is a nationwide school maintenance program that engages all education stakeholders to contribute their time, efforts, and resources in ensuring all public schools are set in time for class opening. This year’s theme is once again “Bayanihan Para sa Matatag na Paaralan.”

This is the 10th year that EK is supporting the said program in fulfillment of the theme park’s advocacy of promoting a fun, unique, and healthy learning environment for students. EK’s very own maintenance personnel and visual artists repaired, upgraded, and repainted the turned-over classrooms.

Mr. Mario O. Mamon, Chairman and CEO of Enchanted Kingdom reaffirmed EK’s steadfast support for DepEd’s Balik Eskwela program and expressed his desire to expand the reach of EK’s initiative beyond the city of Santa Rosa as well as the province of Laguna.

“What we have been doing here at Brigada Eskwela is more than just repainting walls. We are bringing the magical experience of Enchanted Kingdom to our dear students through our colorful murals. And of course, we have decorated the walls with our five core values that we would like to impart to them while they are still young,” he added. 

Mr. Mamon furthered that he is glad to have the opportunity to share EK’s core values of love of God, respect, integrity, loyalty, and innovativeness with the students, and encourage them to put it into practice.

The turnover ceremony was graced by no less than Santa Rosa City Vice Mayor Arnold Arcillas, as well as Southville Elementary School Head Teacher II Maria Marlene Furio, DepEd Santa Rosa Senior Education Program Specialist Jayson Sagaysay, Cluster III Public Schools District Supervisor (PSDS) Soledad Baylon, School Parent-Teacher Association (SPTA) President Aileen Cielos, Barangay Caingin Captain Edwin Servo, teachers, parents, and students.
