Siquijor is known as the “Isla del Fuego (Island of Fire)” because of sparking lights from great swarms of fireflies in the island.
On July 30 to August 1, 2018, another fire was lit. This time, it was one that ignited 43 hearts of the Province’s supreme student government (SSG) student leaders and coordinators when they joined the Kool Adventure Camp of the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc. (RAFI-KAC) Leadership Program at KAC Adventure Education Center in Cansomoroy, Balamban.
The three-day leadership program was conducted to help the students and coordinators identify and understand SSG roles and responsibilities, create an avenue for SSG leaders to work together as a team, and provide an avenue to plan for their school initiatives and personal improvement plan as an SSG officer
“KAC showed me the true meaning of leadership. I learned to collaborate, communicate, and share with my fellow young leaders the responsibilities and obligations of being a student servant and not just take all the burdens for myself,” SSG Federation President Harlyn Lagrimas said.
“After all, this is not just about me, it’s about us, the youth, making a difference together,” Lagrimas added.
Youth Focal Coordinator Calunod Novelyn of the Department of Education Division of Siquijor thanked KAC for facilitating the program for them.
“KAC plays a big role in molding the young leaders of today. They paved the way for the youth to out and explore new knowledge and skills outside the four walls of the school, gain confidence in leading and making change and we were also able to collaborate with fellow SSG coordinators as well as SSG leaders from the different schools in the Division of Siquijor,” she said.
The Kool Adventure Camp of the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc. (RAFI-KAC) is the first and only fully dedicated Adventure Education Center in the Philippines. RAFI-KAC equips organizations and individuals with the character, competence, and citizenship to be leaders of change through powerful learning experiences.
