Students of the University of Bohol - Victoriano D. Tirol Advanced Learning Center - (UB-VDTALC) crowded the school’s quadrangle last November 13, 2019, in celebration of the Science Month Opening, with the theme, “Science for the People: Enabling Technologies for Sustainable Development.”

The Science Month, which is celebrated every November, aims to showcase the scientific-mindedness of VDTALCians.

This year, the creative minds of the Science Department came up with a new activity during the Science Month opening, which was the stairs cheering competition by grade level. Each batch, ranging from Grades 6 to 11, were pitted against each other in a feat of synchronized moves, costumes, and loud yells related to the theme.

The opening celebration marked a month full of activities that further strengthened the VDTALCians’ continuing love and interest in Science. The culmination program of the Science Month will be held on November 25 at the UB VDTALC Campus. (Jacqui Montevilla)
