00:00Classes will open in many schools for the school year 2024-2025.

00:07And that's because of the heavy rain this July.

00:12That's the Nangka Elementary School in Marikina.

00:16The live situation there is from our co-host, Marin Ugmal.

00:21Maris.

00:24Good morning, Egan.

00:26We're still here at Nangka Elementary School in Marikina City

00:29for the opening of classes for the school year 2024-2025.

00:34You can see behind me, there are a lot of students.

00:40They're here in their gym, in their covered court

00:45to prepare for their flag-raising ceremony later at 7 a.m.

00:53More than 3,700 students are expected to be enrolled

00:59from Kinder to Grade 6 here at Nangka Elementary School.

01:04This is the third most enrolled school in the entire city of Marikina.

01:09To find out how they prepared for their return to school,

01:14we're joined by President Wilfredo Padua, the principal of Nangka Elementary School.

01:19Good morning to you, President Padua.

01:22Good morning, Ms. Maris.

01:23And of course, good morning to our Nangka Elementary School community,

01:29to our superintendent, Dr. Iles, who is here today,

01:33and to all the students of Nangka Elementary School and the parents who are here today.

01:39First of all, we saw that there are a lot of students here.

01:45So, I will ask you first, because you had a week of extension before entering.

01:53How did you manage the time given to you

01:56so that the classrooms used as evacuation centers are really organized?

02:02Yes, Ms. Maris.

02:03We really struggled with our evacuation

02:07because our school became an evacuation site.

02:10This did not become a barrier for us to prepare today

02:14because, of course, the SDO of Marikina helped in organizing our facilities,

02:20our LGU, like our mayor, and our Baragay LGU that helped.

02:25So, we set aside time on Saturday and Sunday to prepare for the opening of this class.

02:31Sir, how difficult was the cleaning?

02:33Because I want to know, was this school flooded?

02:37Actually, it was not flooded, Ms. Maris.

02:39We are very thankful to God that we were not flooded.

02:42So, this was used as an evacuation site for our students and parents.

02:47How difficult was the cleaning?

02:48It was a bit difficult.

02:50Because, of course, the dust came from below.

02:52After they cleaned, their boots got dirty.

02:56So, it was a bit of a struggle.

02:59How was the condition of the school during the flood?

03:03You said it was not flooded, but how was the situation?

03:06And when did the evacuees leave here

03:09to give time for you to clean in time for the opening of classes?

03:15Yes, all the classrooms were used.

03:19So, the situation here was really bad.

03:23But because the parents, our LGUs, and our mayor helped in cleaning the school,

03:32the transition was really fast.

03:35So, we are ready today.

03:38One of the concerns of the school is that there are a lot of enrollees in Marikina.

03:42What preparations did you do?

03:47You said that it was very difficult to clean the boots.

03:52Yes. So, for the enrollment, we have a Facebook page.

03:58We also have an online registration.

04:00And up to this day, we are accepting our enrollees, our transferees.

04:06What about the missed days?

04:08Because the other schools throughout the country started on July 29.

04:13You and the other schools that were also affected,

04:18in the places that were affected by the floods,

04:21will start on August 5.

04:24So, what about the missed days?

04:25Yes, Ms. Maris, we don't have any problems here.

04:28Because our SDO, Marikina, has makeup classes being held.

04:34Every Saturday.

04:35But this is not sudden.

04:37So, of course, on Saturdays, there will be classes.

04:41Then, alternately, there will be classes until the missed days are over.

04:46All right. We wish you all the best, Sir Padua.

04:49And of course, our students are very excited.

04:53They are just waiting for their flag-raising ceremony at 7 p.m.

04:57And later, their enrollment will start.

05:01It's very obvious that they are very excited to enroll,

05:05together with all the other students throughout the country.

05:08Again, we wish you all the best.

05:10Thank you very much for inviting Wilfredo Padua,

05:15the principal of Nangkalaman Free School.

05:18That is the latest situation.

05:20From Marikina City, back to the studio.

05:31Tune in to JMA Pinoy TV and www.jmanews.tv.
