00:00We are still here at Nangka Elementary School here in Marikina City where today is the first day of the school year here in Marikina City.
00:17Just like all other schools, all public and private schools here in Marikina City.
00:25Because of the storm, the first day of the school year was postponed to today instead of July 29.
00:35Just a few moments ago, we can see the students here are about to hold their flag ceremony.
00:41But only Grade 5 students are here in their covered court because Grade 1 and 3 are in their classrooms.
00:50Because not all of them will be able to attend.
00:53Yesterday, Grade 2, 4, and 6 enrolled 3,714 students.
01:00This is a lower number compared to the 3,800 students enrolled last year.
01:04But the number of students enrolled is still increasing.
01:09This school is located near Marikina River.
01:12But according to their principal, they were not affected by the storm.
01:18They just became an evacuation center.
01:20That's why the evacuees are taking care of this school until August 1.
