Metro Pacific Tollways South (MPT South), a subsidiary of Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation (MPTC), stands in solidarity with the nation during the annual Brigada Eskwela, as public schools prepare to resume classes this month.
Recognizing the importance of
ensuring clean and functional classrooms and facilities, MPT South has taken an
active role in supporting public schools along its Manila-Cavite Expressway
(CAVITEX) and Cavite-Laguna Expressway (CALAX) alignment. This year, the toll
road operator has contributed to the revitalization of learning spaces.
Notably, volunteer employees of MPT South engaged in the cleaning and painting
of classrooms and hallways at Gahak-Marulas Elementary School in Kawit, Cavite;
Tibig Elementary School in Silang, Cavite; and Cecilio M. Saliba Elementary
School in General Trias, Cavite.
Beyond this, the toll road operator
has also extended its assistance through donations of essential school supplies
such as bag packs, notebooks, pencils, crayons, pad papers, and materials for
painting and cleaning. MPT South also reached out to other institutions,
including Col. E. De Leon Elementary School and Southville Elementary School in
Paranaque, as well as Longos Elementary School in Bacoor, to offer assistance
in enhancing the learning experience for students.
"MPT South reaffirms its
commitment to the local communities and the welfare of students. These
initiatives are a testament to MPT South's dedication to providing quality
education and fostering a conducive learning environment for the youth,"
stated Ms. Arlette Capistrano, Vice President for Communication and Stakeholder
Management.
Earlier this month, the Department of
Education (DepEd) inaugurated the 2023 Brigada Eskwela, or Schools Maintenance
Week, under the banner of "Bayanihan Para saMatatagnaPaaralan,". This
year's Brigada Eskwela highlights the nation's collective volunteer efforts to
guarantee a clean, secure, inclusive, and child-friendly learning atmosphere
for both students and education professionals. It also aims to enhance the
resilience of schools and basic education, ensuring that public schools are
fully prepared for the commencement of classes on August 29th.
MPTC is the leading mobility
infrastructure and solutions provider in the Philippines. It is the toll road
development arm of Metro Pacific Investments Corporation (MPIC). Aside from
CAVITEX, and CALAX, MPTC also holds concession rights for CAVITEX C5 Link, the
North Luzon Expressway (NLEX), the Subic-Clark Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX), the
