The fully-operational Gym, which had its soft blessing last August 14, is equipped with Taraflex flooring and facilities for various sports, namely, volleyball, basketball, badminton, and table tennis. Inauguration is yet to be held as installation of sound and security systems, ventilating fans, lockers, and the UPIS seal is still to be done.

Funding for the Gym’s fixtures came from the proceeds of the Centennial Fun Run.

More facilities anticipated

Meanwhile, the dining area of the 7-12 canteen was extended to accommodate more students. The 2nd phase of the extension, this time for the food preparation area, is still underway.

The renovation of the Auditorium is now in its final touches with the bidding of seats and securing of permit to install an air-conditioning system still in progress. On the other hand, renovation of the Bulwagan will take some time due to issues regarding the preservation of the invasive tree.

Roofing and concreting of the pathwalk connecting the Academic Building and Narra Wing has begun.

Proceeds from the Centennial Coffee Table Book provided funding for the construction of the pathwalk and canteen extension. // by LM Gacad, Chesca Santiago
