Pocholo did not miss the opportunity to meet the Aeta students. They were gathered in the faculty room for a meet-and-greet with the VoiceMaster, who amazed them with his ensemble of character voices. He also did a lively and interactive storytelling session with them, and even gave the kids tips on how to tell children’s stories.

In that same vein, Pocholo turned over to the school 100 children’s story books, which were donated by Lampara Books through JCI Makati.

Pocholo ended the quick but impactful visit by going to each classroom and inspiring the students.

Biaan Aeta Integrated School is a DepED-Managed partially urban public Integrated school, catering to both Elementary and High School students. It is a relatively small school with no more than 200 student population. Their primary need is a feeding center, as they have over 50 students who are beneficiaries of their feeding program, but no proper place to be fed in.
