Right after Valentine’s Day, Monol went to spend a Saturday morning, February 15, in high spirits with the kids of the Reception and Study Center for Children (RSCC). 10 Monol students of different nationalities signed up for the outreach program. They had the opportunity to bond with 12 kids from the center.
As February 1st hits the calendars, the usual Baguio breeze is tinged with an even sweeter vibe as people look forward to the most romantic day of the year, Valentine’s Day. On February 14th, Monol also participated in spreading the love to everyone in the academy.
December 20 marks a special Christmas celebration for Monol teachers and employees. Despite the cold breeze and drizzle, the academy’s Christmas party was warm as ever as everyone was basking in the Christmas cheer together.
As the outreach program began, everyone was slowly getting to know each other. Both Monol teachers and students put in the effort to work together to make the kids happy. For the morning’s activity, they were set to create paper plate arts and crafts together.
Zumba is a simple yet great way to get moving. Undeniably, day to day activities like sitting in class or doing desk work can get sedentary. So, with this exercise as well as other fitness programs in Monol, the school hopes to promote an active lifestyle.
This year’s Halloween theme centers on a Spooky Slumber party which means wearing jammies to school! On October 24, Monol students, staff, and teachers dressed in comfortable onesies and pajamas for their Halloween costumes.
3+1 room activities usually include going bowling and watching movies at the cinema. However, most of the 3+1 students this term are kids. In this case, the teachers thought arranging a game night would be the most enjoyable for them.
Teachers are influential figures in a student’s life. They not only help students learn their chosen craft but also become a friend in the process. Coincidentally lining up with the Philippine’s National Teacher’s Month this September, the teachers of Monol are attending fulfilling activities such as team buildings and skills enhancement training
Building camaraderie and knowing how to work together are two important things in the workplace. To build that healthy environment for Monol teachers, team building activities were facilitated by the Human Resource (HR) Department.
Last August 02, 2019, Monol paid tribute to teacher Ruth and her 12 years of teaching in the academy. The retirement party titled ‘A Journey to a Beautiful Career in ESL Teaching’ looked back on the many memories she has made in the Monol.
