TRS Celebrates Buwan ng Wika with a another Fun Fridays Themed Book Launch - Laro Tayo: Noon at Ngayon
August has always been a special time in the Philippines — a month where we honor our language, heritage, and culture through Buwan ng Wika. At TRS, this year’s celebration was made even more meaningful with the much-awaited "Laro Tayo: Noon at Ngayon”, part of our beloved Fun Fridays theme book series!
It was a day filled with color, culture, and connection — one that celebrated both the richness of our past and the joyful creativity of our present.
The highlight of the event was the official launch of “Laro Tayo Noon at Ngayon”, a charming and nostalgic book that takes readers on a journey through traditional Filipino games — from piko to tumbang preso — and how these timeless games can still bring joy today.
The book is a tribute to the playful spirit of Filipino childhood and was written and illustrated in collaboration with the TRS team as part of the Fun Fridays creative learning initiative. It reminds young readers of the value of play, teamwork, and Filipino traditions.
To mark the occasion, both teachers and students proudly wore their national costumes, turning the centers into a beautiful sea of barong tagalog, baro’t saya, and traditional wear from different regions of the Philippines. The colorful attires brought our heritage to life.
From the littlest learners to the TRS teachers, everyone came dressed not to impress — but to express pride in being Filipino.
What made the celebration even more exciting were the traditional Filipino games played throughout the day! It was a nostalgic experience for the teachers, and an eye-opening adventure for the kids who got to experience the joy of playing outside — just like in the old days.
It was filled with fun, laughter, learning, and love — a true reflection of what it means to be part of the TRS family.
