We were delighted to partner with Kindergarten Teacher Mrs Riza T. De la Fuente, School Partnerships Focal Person at Sungko ES, to fund the construction of hexagonal tables for the Kinder classrooms.

This design is preferred for early years learners allowing for flexible seating arrangements, fostering interaction and teamwork, which is especially valuable for young children developing social and cognitive skills. It also encourages a sense of community and shared learning experiences, promoting both individual and group learning. 

Using local labour, the manufacture of 8 customised hexagonal tables was completed at a cost of ₱15,630. The new Kinder pupils were excited to take their seats when they returned to school last June.
