Nuvali Field Trip Memorable Experience Journal entry:

On August 4, 2010, we’ve been gone to field trip in Nuvali. In Nuvali, we go fish feeding, boat riding, hiking, and trekking. In fish feeding, we’ve come now to the lake that is full of fishes. The fish food is worth PhP15.00.

Now we buy one and you see the lake is full of fishes then I throw fish food. And the fishes are fighting each other to get one! There until JM and Karl and I shared fish food until the food is now few. I threw them all at the lake.

Now the boat riding. Before the boat riding, Kuya Robi explained (to) us about recycling. We line up for the boat but Just*** R keep pushing me! Then when we stop, Just*** R stole my place! Then its time to go inside the boat but it was too late. I was the the one next to go inside the boat but the boat was full. Later (while the son is waiting on the dock), waves go to us, it felt like we were surfing! The boat arrived (after a few) in minutes. Then when I go in, I sit at the back of the boat. I put on the vest that is on my back (of the seat). And then when the boat started we go to the fountain. Then when we are now back (to the fish feeding station), I was a little wet.

Hiking and Trekking. When we had come to the bridge, it is so down we would really hike! When we started to go down it’s scary. In the last it felt like I was sliding down the and its really scary! Now, at last that was finish its time now to step on rocks, not on soil. Now when that hiking is done we play in a river for a few minutes. Kuya Jan explained (to) us something. After that we play but my mom panicked to call me and it started to rain! Oh, I almost forgot, I forgot to use Crocs but I was using my rubber shoes and stones went inside. I changed my clothes outside the bus and we leave Nuvali.

Words in italics were added in an attempt for minimum editing. Everything was handwritten by the son in his Science notebook.

Is your child being bullied in school? My younger daughter is being bullied in school.

What do you do when you learn about this?

Here are a few tips on what to do if in case your child came home from school and told you the nasty things his/her classmate has been doing to him/her:

• Keep calm
• Talk to your child and try to have him/her narrate what really happened and how it happened
• Take note of the date, time, place, witnesses and the circumstances when the bullying episodes happened. This is very important especially if you plan to write a complaint.
• Have your son/daughter write in a journal, daily if they must, about what is happening in the school.
• Set an appointment with the class adviser as soon as possible so that you can tell her what your child told you.
• If nothing happens after you have alerted/talked to the class adviser, write a formal complaint to the guidance counselor to let them know that you child is being bullied in school.
