LAOAG CITY- The provincial government of Ilocos Norte through the Provincial Social Welfare and Development (PSWD) Office will hold a fun-filled dance and chorale competitions for day care center children, ages 3–5 years in celebration of National Children’s Month this October, according to Lilian Rin, PSWD Officer. | |||
“The contestants will be the representatives of the 21 municipalities of the province, excluding the cities of Laoag and Batac,” Rin said. | |||
“This is one way of making the public, particularly our children, aware of their rights and privileges, such as the right to education; health care; play and recreation, among others. We also want to hone the talents of our children and teach them camaraderie and sportsmanship,” she said. | |||
The competitions will be held on October 21. Winners of the provincial contest will compete at the regional level to be held in San Fernando City, La Union on October 28. | |||
The theme of this year’s celebration of Children’s Month is “Local Council for the Protection of Children (LCPC) Para sa Bright Child: Pakilusin, Palakasin, Pagtulungan Natin.” This is in support of the campaign to strengthen the LCPC which is the enabling mechanism for the creation of a child-friendly society that is sensitive to the needs of the child, and where all sectors work to produce holistic and sustainable strategies that promote child rights. | |||
