YRC CONDUCTS ADOPT-A-PLANT AND PLANT PROPAGATION ACTIVITY

In support to the Kaibigan ng Kalikasan Program of the University of Saint Louis, the Young Readers Club (YRC) officers conducted Adopt-A-Plant and Plant Propagation activity last January 27, 2017.

Mrs. Arlyn Cristobal, YRC adviser and Elementary Library Head asked each YRC officer to bring their own cuttings of plants, plant them on existing pots with soil, and take care of them until the end of the school year. Some YRC officers were also assigned plants from the existing collection of the library to adopt and take care of. The objectives of the activity are: (1) to imbibe among pupils their role in protecting the environment in their own simple ways and (2) to keep them aware of the KKP being implemented in the university.  The activity was spearheaded by Juan Carlos Pajarillo, YRC President.
