On March 16, 2026, selected Grade 5 learners from Sections Apitong and Acacia actively participated in the BFP Quezon Fire Square Road Show held at SM City Lucena. The activity aimed to strengthen fire safety awareness and promote disaster preparedness among young learners. Accompanied by YES-O Officers, SELG Officers, Sir John Jerick D. Garay, and Ma’am Gladys P. Lavadia, the participants explored various interactive booths designed to enhance their knowledge and skills in emergency situations.

The learners visited the Fire Safety Booth and Information Booth, where they gained essential knowledge on fire prevention and safety practices. At the EMS Booth, they were introduced to basic emergency medical services, while the Firefighting Booth provided demonstrations on proper fire response techniques. The Rescue Booth showcased life-saving strategies during emergencies, and the Photo Booth added a fun and memorable experience for everyone.

The school also extends its sincere appreciation to SFO1 Jan Vincent R. Alba, The Bureau of Fire Protection R4A Lucena City Fire Station, BFP R4A Quezon Provincial Office, and the Bureau of Fire Protection CALABARZON for their invaluable guidance and for inviting the learners to take part in this meaningful and educational activity.

Through this engaging and educational event, learners were empowered with valuable knowledge and practical skills, reinforcing the importance of preparedness and safety in their daily lives.
