FCAN Life > Special Events / Activities
Foundation Week
Every February,
FCAN holds a week-long celebration to commemorate its
foundation. The whole week is filled with fun activities
that foster and enrich the camaraderie among the
students, the teachers, the staff and even the parents.
Many contests are held during Foundation Week wherein the students
compete in artistic fields such as music and
declamation, to seek out talent and promote creativity,
artistic ability and good sportsmanship.
Field
Demo
The Field Demo is
held on the last day of Foundation Week. It is one of
the most special elements of Foundation Week because it
is the event wherein every class performs a special song
and dance number that they have prepared weeks
beforehand. This is the perfect arena to exhibit the
students’ talents, to teach them the joys of working and
accomplishing things as a group and to foster their
school spirit. It is a delightful treat for the
students’ families as well being the audience to such
colorful and cheerful performances.
Food Fair
All Filipinos
know that where there is a special event or celebration,
there has to be lots and lots of food! That’s why
Foundation Week wouldn’t be complete without the Food
Fair wherein different food stalls with festive and
tasty offerings are set up throughout the campus.
Sportsfest
FCAN’s Sportsfest
is another favorite event among FCAN’s student body and
even among the faculty and staff. The students get to
participate and compete in different sports and games.
On the top of the list is, of course, basketball. Other sports and games included are volleyball, table
tennis, badminton, chess, Scrabble and Word Factory.
Another special feature of the Sportsfest is the
exhibition games where a team of FCAN’s
faculty/staff compete against a team of selected
parents and representatives of the students’ families.
Junior-Senior Prom
The object of the JS Prom is to give the Seniors a meaningful
and memorable send-off as they are about to move on to
their college years and to serve as a rite of passage
for the Juniors who are moving on to the final chapter
of their high school life. It is also a venue for the
students to learn more about social interaction in
a more formal setting.
Field Trip
Nothing is more
exciting than an adventure! A field trip is exactly that
and much more. With every field trip, FCAN hopes to excite the
children’s curiosity, imagination and sense of
exploration and discovery, to strengthen the fellowship
among classmates, friends and teachers, to expose the students to
an experience rich with opportunities for social
interaction, to supplement them with life lessons that
may not be available within the school walls, to develop
their awareness of the outside world and, of course, to
have fun while learning all these things!
Spiritual Retreat
Being a
Christian school, FCAN aims to nurture not only the mind and the body but the heart and the soul as well. One of the ways to accomplish this is through a Retreat where spiritual growth is
cultivated through fellowship, praise and worship, Bible
study and prayer.
Medical Mission
As part of FCAN’s
goal to impart life lessons to students, a Medical
Mission is held once a year wherein the students
participate in an effort to provide free medical
assistance to an impoverished community.
