Summer is almost done here in the Philippines. So incoming students are busy preparing, whether they are new freshman or a senior, heading back to school signals a time of transition: new classes, new teachers, new schedules, and a new social scene. Dread it or love it, you got to go to school.
Getting back to the school routine and adjusting to new workloads takes some getting used to after a long summer break. Meeting new people or getting reacquainted with classmates can feel overwhelming.
Many stores here started to have back to school promo for their school supplies. In this time, people would really grab every opportunity to buy discounted stuff.
In any public school here, one requirements before your child will be enrolled (elementary or high school) is through school brigada (the mom or dad would contribute their time to help clean and prepare the school in time for the opening of classes). Private institution doesn’t require this campaign though.
Are you ready for school year 2012-2013?
