The campers did not go home empty-handed, that is for sure.
With over 200 participants from Grades 9 and 10 of Tabaco National High School (TNHS), the 2nd School-based Media Camp was held last November 6-8, 2015 at TNHS with the theme: "Focus + Vision = Design."
Said camp involved lectures on Photography, Web Design, Social Media and First Aid which were also the topics for the camp's team-building activities and contests all throughout the first and second days of the camp.
During the 2nd night of the camp, the Search for Mr. and Ms. Media Camp was held where Vince Gabriel Alado and Mitzi Rexine Martirez were hailed as Mr. and Ms. Media Camp respectively. They were followed by Krysdane Berana and Marc Gerald Saba, 1st runner up; and Angelie Nicole Bordas and Gerard Bata, 2nd runner up.
By the 3rd day, the awarding ceremony was held. Subcamp Instagram bagged the Best Subcamp award.
"We joined the camp with only our own personal things with us but when we left the camp, we gained things. We left with new-found knowledge and we made new bonds with other students of the school and that is enough to say that the Computer Club succeeded in making this camp enjoyable and knowledge-filled," said Gavin Raymond Briones, leader, Subcamp Instagram.
The school's Computer Club is headed by Cyrus Christian Lee and advisers, Mrs. Julma Cargullo and Mr. Nathaniel Bongat.
