𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐘𝐍𝐄𝐑𝐆𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐄: 𝐁𝐋𝐈𝐒 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐍𝐌𝐑-19 𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐕𝐄 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐄 𝐀𝐓 𝐌𝐈𝐆𝐓𝐔𝐆𝐒𝐎𝐊

The Community Extension Program of the Northern Mindanao Region 19, in a dynamic partnership with Bachelor of Library and Information Science, recently spearheaded a transformative initiative at Migtugsok Mobile School in Upper Cugman. Coordinated alongside the faculty and students of Tagoloan Community College, this project focused on the dual mission of environmental stewardship and educational growth. By combining a large-scale tree-planting activity with a strategic turnover of library resources, the initiative highlighted a collective commitment to nurturing both the natural landscape and the academic potential of the next generation.

The event commenced with participants working side-by-side to plant seedlings, symbolizing a rooted commitment to a greener future for the local community. Following this hands-on engagement, the formal program was ushered in by an enthusiastic welcome from School-in-Charge, Ma'am Jeane Fe Z. Llaban, and followed by powerful messages from Eagle Dr. Romel Rellon and Governor Alene Valencia. Their words of encouragement ignited a spirit of service among the volunteers, emphasizing that true leadership is found in uplifting others through consistent, compassionate action and community advocacy.

A major highlight of the day was the immersive storytelling and shared reading session, where BLIS students brought books to life through expressive reenactments that captivated the young learners. This interactive energy flowed directly into the turnover of bookshelves and library materials, which were personally donated and carefully curated by the BLIS students to enhance the school’s learning environment. The day concluded with a joyful shared lunch, leaving behind a legacy of expanded horizons and a strengthened foundation for literacy at Migtugsok Mobile School.

Day 2 of the BLIS Educational Tour brought students to the vibrant city of Bislig, Surigao del Sur, where learning continued beyond the classroom. Following a successful first day, participants began their morning with an early breakfast and a prompt 7:30 AM departure, demonstrating discipline, time management, and readiness for another day of exploration. The journey itself reflected the importance of adaptability—an essential skill that students continue to develop throughout this immersive experience.

The day unfolded with a balance of cultural discovery and nature appreciation. The group first gathered for lunch at The Aperó, allowing participants to rest and recharge. They then visited the International Doll House, where a diverse collection of dolls showcased traditions and cultures from around the world. The journey continued to the breathtaking Tinuy-an Falls, where students experienced the grandeur of its cascading waters. To end the afternoon, the group headed to the Bislig Baywalk, capturing memorable moments along the scenic coastline.

As the day progressed, participants proceeded to Bislig Highland Farm for an early dinner and a meaningful program. The program opened with welcoming remarks from Ms. Jessica D. Caubat, followed by inspiring messages from the College Dean Dr. Romel U. Rellon and MICE Head Agency Sarah Jane Khu, highlighting the significance of the tour in shaping students’ academic and professional growth. The program concluded with closing remarks from Ms. Juvelyn Teodora, expressing appreciation to all participants and organizers. By the evening, the group checked in at the hotel, officially concluding another productive and enriching day of the BLIS Educational Tour. More than just a journey across destinations, Day 2 became a celebration of shared experiences, deeper connections, and lifelong learning.
