Basic Education Elementary Department Strengthens Advocacy and Awareness Through Infographics, Poster Making, and NutriQuiz Activities

In the Month of November, the CCDC Basic Education Department recently carried out a series of advocacy-driven activities aimed at promoting awareness, creativity, and responsible decision-making among learners. These initiatives included the Infographics Contest, Poster Making Contests, and the NutriQuiz, each designed to enhance students’ understanding of important social and health issues.

Representatives Jett Andrie L. Salbino and Saphira Klea Hailee B. Bolas a grade 3 students produced entries that demonstrated strong digital literacy and an ability to communicate advocacy messages effectively. This activity was organized by the La Trinidad Municipal Social Welfare and Development Office (MSWD), underscoring the municipal government’s support for youth-focused prevention programs.

Two separate Poster Making Contests were also held. The first organized by the Municipal Social Welfare and Development Office, centered on the theme “OSAEC–CSAEM Wakasan: Kaligtasan at Karapatan ng Bata, Ipaglaban,” highlighting the importance of protecting children from online abuse and exploitation.
