Order No.10 S.2016 to teachers and parents
WASH in School is a first step toward ensuring a healthy
physical learning environment. School with quality WASH program can lessen the
spread of Covid 19. Ensure every child or parent goes to a school with WASH
water, sanitation and Hygiene education. Wash in Schools focusses on the
standards for the promotion practices among learners and their parent.
Mr. Noel R. Dauran explained the three
(3) star approach WASH in Schools
Baya Elementary School (BES) always embarks on activities
and programs that aims to reinforce a healthy and enabling environment for our
learners. We strive to continuously provide a safe, healthful and thriving
setting for school children as it is important to ensure their total well-being
that is vital for their educational success, poor water, sanitation and hygiene
(WASH) conditions in school make children prone to illness and diarrhea,
intestinal worms and acute respiratory infections. These diseases have serious
impact on children’s education and leading them to miss school often affecting
their academic performance. In order to make certain that these circumstances
are avoided, Baya Elementary School has taken the challenge to help transform
live through the WASH in schools (Wins) Program.
The school Principal, Ms. Alma C. Aguirre, assigned a
Technical Working Group (TWG) for Wins which are composed of teachers, parents
and the barangay health worker, who will lead our community to assess, plan,
implement and evaluate activities that are aimed to improve our school
facilities, practices and educational approach. The school conducted a General
Orientation for teachers, parents and stakeholders to discuss the goals and
implementation of the Wins Program. An initial assessment was done through the
use of three Star Approach for WASH in Schools focusing on health education,
deworming, hygiene, sanitation and water accessibility.
These concepts were then translated to actions by the TWG, deficits and concerns self-care were strengthened by making sure that WinS is included in the curriculum, teachers, school staff and GPTA Officers made different projects toward the actualization of the BES’ mission as part of the service for our future leaders.

Baya Elementary School also reinforced it waste
management policies such as its “No Burning of Waste” Biodegradable waste from
the school canteen are decomposed in our designated compost pits while
non-biodegradable waste like food wrappers are cut into pieces are utilized in
Eco-pillows, flower base, and curtains. Plastic bottles are utilized in making flowering
pots for hanging plants. These policies helped reduce the school’s plastic
waste and encouraged children to refuse the use of single use plastics.
Teachers and externals stakeholders provide free drinking water inside their
classrooms to prevent heat-related ailment and maintain their focus in class.
WinS is one of the most basic aspect in ensuring that children are ready for
learning. By addressing WASH in schools, we are helping to: prevent hygiene
related disease, promote positive behavior and life skill, improve attendance
and participation, help them thrive and learn better, promote gender equality
and affirm children’s right to health and education.
