By Joel Boncodin
Last February 3-5, 2010, the Basic Education Commission of De La Salle Philippines held an eco-camp at Bluroze Farms and Wildlife Park for High School students from different La Salle schools in Luzon. The theme for this year`s eco-camp was GREEN: Giving Response to Earth`s Environmental Needs. The host school for the camp was De La Salle Lipa.
Six La Salle schools, from Luzon joined the eco-camp, namely La Salle Lipa, La Salle Canlubang, La Salle Antipolo, La Salle Zobel, La Salle Araneta and La Salle Green Hills. Each school sent 20 student delegates. All delegates were group into 10 different tribes.
The eco-camp had activities such as an Amazing Race around the whole park, a short talk one how we can help save our planet and turn it into an ecozoic era, and the concluding activity—a coastal clean-up at Sitio Tagbakin, Barangay Halang, Lipa.
The eco-camp did not only build friendships among different La Salle students from different schools but it also taught the delegates to become better stewards of God's creation and to respond to the environmental needs of our planet.
