This morning my wife Marilou and I attended the 56th
Founders Day celebration at Bethany Christian School for Children. Each year
the children from kinder grade to 4th Year High School celebrate the founding
of the school by way of various competitions including sports and subject
related challenges. The students are divided into four groups or teams and they
challenge each other to find out who is the best overall. The team with the
most points at the end of the four day competition is declared the winner with
prizes given in each category. Competition is fierce with very high standards
being achieved amongst the competitors. The completion will start tomorrow
proper and last till Thursday with the prize giving on Friday to conclude the
celebrations.

BCSC was started in 1956 to provide an education for the
then children of Bethany Christian Home for Children and soon expanded to
provide kinder, elementary and high school education for a sizable number of
students in the Talakag area until now.
