It signifies faith in Christ and the star which led the Wise Men of the East to the manger in which Christ was born in Bethlehem. The Human Lasallian Star first came to life on February 11, 2009 during the Lasallian Days Festival as a means to encourage each Lasallian to show their school spirit in an environment of camaraderie and shared ideals. Attended by over 10,000 administrators, students an
d faculty, the first attempt to form the largest human star in the world was held at the DLSU-D oval and was witnessed by spectators from the top of the CBA building and the DLSU-D grandstand. The star spanned approximately 71 meters, and occupied a total area of 2,145 square meters. DLSU-D attempted the feat again in January 26, 2010, this time at night. The event drew in 13,000 participants, comprised of students, faculty, administrators and parents. Participants were given the glow sticks of green and white, the school colors of De La Salle. As night fell, the crowd assembled into a huge star twinkling brightly against the darkness. This moment of history was further heightened by the singing of the school hymn. The Human Lasallian Star has long been a symbol of unity among members of De La Salle community, for without whose support the endeavor would not have achieved success. On its third try, DLSU-D, the spearhead of this major activity, opens its doors to Lasallians nationwide to form the biggest and brightest Human Lasallian Star in history on March 4, 2012.
