MARIST B.E.A.R.S. PROGRAM LAUNCHED

Marist School successfully lit the symbolic torch in the opening of a virtual homeroom competition known as Marist B.E.A.R.S. which stands for Marist Body Exercises and Recreational Sessions with the theme, “Time to RELAX (Relieve and Energize through Leisure Activities and Exercise)” on November 24 and 26, 2021, for the senior high, grade school and junior high respectively.

Using VIOLETS as the main platform of the program, the virtual opening was another milestone for the entire school community. Participating in the opening event were selected students, school personnel, administrators, and alumni. Mr. Jason Credo , an alumnus and currently in the roster of “Gilas” – Philippine National Basketball Team and Ateneo De Manila University Men’s Basketball Team, was the guest speaker.

The program is an inter – homeroom competition that aims to develop physical and psychological attributes of the students though active participation in physical fitness, singing, and art making in a remote type of modality. It further aims to develop overall fitness and wellness of students while staying at home; practice hard-work, teamwork, sportsmanship, and excellence in each and every performance; and adapt skills that turn limited situations to be more productive and beneficial.

The activities are intended to give opportunities for students to translate the school’s mission and vison specifically that which pertains to students’ physical and psychological development.  They are also meant to address students’ limitations on physical activity while staying at home. Finally these activities hope to provide opportunities for students to explore other interests and be more productive and active.
