OUTDOOR LEARNING

We believe in nourishing the power of education beyond walls. For local clients, we offer programs for K-12, college field trips, faculty field trips, and study tours abroad. We have various programs for different interests: history and culture, humanities, and nature and the environment. We also offer educational tours to different destinations in the Philippines for foreign students. Our 15 years of handling local and foreign student group tours made us one of the most trusted educational tour company in the Philippines.  

educational FIELD TRIPS

For students, field trips can be the best of both worlds: a welcome and exciting break from day-to-day classroom activities and a memorable, real-world experience that will solidify the curriculum in their minds. Unfortunately, the most desirable trips—those to far-away, enticing destinations— have long been inaccessible due to the ongoing pandemic. Limiting the movement of people outdoors not to mention the AITF policy on social distancing thus, not allowing children ages 18 and below outside their homes for health safety. 

But today we have other options. Virtual field trips (VFTs) are just what their name suggests: field trips that are conducted virtually, over the Internet, and/or videoconferencing equipment so that students can learn directly from experts in far-flung places without ever leaving their homes.

New DepEd Guidelines on Field Trips

1. In support of the K to 12 Curriculum implementation, the Department of Education (DepEd) hereby establishes the enclosed guidelines on the conduct of co-curricular and extra-curricular off-campus activities for public and private schools.

2. All co-curricular and extra-curricular activities will adhere to the following:

• Ensure relevance and alignment with the educational competencies of the K to 12 Curriculum and leadership development of learners;
• Uphold child protection principles and that no learner shall be disadvantaged in any form; and
• Observe the safety and security protocols for all participants before, during and after the activity.

3. This issuance repeals DepEd Order Nos. 87 and 52, s. 2003, 5, s. 2002 and 56, s. 2001. All other related issuances, rules and regulations, as well as provisions which are inconsistent with this policy are hereby repealed, rescinded, or modified accordingly.

My kid is about to have their field trip this october, my goodness the waiver if you can call it a waiver walang itenerary walang etc. etc Details…. Im in support to off-campus activity kasi importante rin yan talaga, but how come the school is OA naman sa waiver nila wherein first in foremost kahit naman anong gawin eh liable parin sila sa safety ng mga bata and that does not totally waived them off the responsibility… DepED pls double check on this… Pirma ng Principal ng Adviser and details yun lang namn… so it will be easier for us to decide kung sasama ang bata o hindi… Good Day everyone..

Bakit po ang field trip authorization ay wala man lang pirma ng principal o adviser? PINAPIRPIRMAHAN lang po nila sa mga magulang. Nakakatakot kapag may aksidente nangyari sino ang sa sagot? Wala naman consent at approval ng school, particularly MONDAY high school

Isangguni ninyo sa nearest DepEd po.

Is it appropriate that school ask the parent to sign on waiver indicating they are not responsble to any problem that will occur during the outdoor activity

Directly PM DepED po: https://www.facebook.com/DepEd.Philippines/

sana ipagbawal na rin ung pag pirma ng parents or guardians ng waiver that holds the schools, its personnel and outside vehicle contractors from being held responsible kung may mangyaring untoward incident. from the school premises, during the travel to and back in the school premises, and during the activities.

Manila Zoo: Field Trip 2023

• 4 Comments on Manila Zoo: Field Trip 2023

In November 2022, the newly rehabilitated Manila Zoo, also known as Manila Zoological and Botanical Garden , reopened to the public. The reopening was heavily anticipated, especially by the parents who grew up visiting the zoo in their younger years. The husband and I last visited the zoo a few months before our wedding. And we were excited to visit again this time with our three children. It was also our way to have an early celebration of National Homeschool Day.

How to Visit Manila Zoo?

I have seen posts about the new Manila Zoo and everyone has mentioned that there is an online registration. I checked the website and registered for myself first. There will be a QR code that you will need, so screenshot this.

Ticket Price per person:

• Adult – Php300
• Student – Php200
• Manila Teachers and residents have discounts

Have your ID handy when you visit the zoo. The kids brought their school IDs.

IMPORTANT : You can register one person at a time. The website does not have a feature to register a group. Which was a bummer for families. Since you can only register one person at a time, the payment transaction is a single transaction as well. Ergo, each transaction you do when you make online payments mean each would have transaction fees.

After registering, you can pay for your ticket online (GCash and others) or pay at the kiosks at the zoo. I opted to pay instead at the kiosks to avoid fees using online payment. The registration is available for payment within 2 days only. Hence, I registered the whole family when we were already on our way to the zoo that morning.

Paying at the Zoo Kiosk

When we arrived after almost 2 hours of traffic from Quezon City, the parking was already full. It was a Wednesday. It was a great thing we used Grab and alighted when we arrived since we do not have our own car.

We proceeded to the information/kiosks. The kiosks accept exact payment ONLY. When we asked the people at the table how we can pay as a family, they said that the kiosks accept only exact payments and we can go to the nearest 7-11 to have our money changed into smaller bills. My eyes rolled. They did not have any booths where we can pay cash collectively as a group. They wanted us to walk out of the zoo, go to the nearest 7-11, and change our Php1,200 pesos to hundred peso bills so we can pay at the kiosk!

I was on the edge of losing my cool, good thing a senior staff of the zoo came out, approached me, and said that she will assist me at the kiosk so we can pay as a family. She first entered one ticket by scanning the QR code and then slipped the 1,000 peso bill into the kiosk. She was able to pay for all 5 of us in 1 kiosk transaction. Pwede naman pala eh!

The senior staff apologized to me and my husband for the misinformation.

We got our printed tickets and passed through the gates.

Near the entrance is a souvenir shop on the left and an Asian elephant on the right. The entire zoo did not look how it was before. It is now modern-looking. I am not an animal expert on what’s the best habitat-in-captivity for these animals, and would still prefer the animals in the wild, but so far Manila did a good job rehabilitating the place.

We wanted to see the hippopotamus since there was a big sign of it, but it wasn’t there. Sigh.

Apex Predators, Aviary, and Food Court

Next to the elephant and hippopotamus’ pens were the apex predators. The cage of the hyena did not contain any hyenas but what looked like a group of Capybaras. Sorry I wasn’t able to take a photo. If you have seen them, please let me know in the comments section if they were indeed Capybara.

Across to the hyena pen are the tigers’ pen.

The aviary was big. First I thought these were the only birds in the zoo. Later on our trip, we saw birds that are endemic in the Philippines.

It was an hour before lunch so we decided to have a quick lunch after our visit to the aviary. There were a lot of food stalls that offer soft-served ice cream, rice meals, shawarma, etc. However the tables were already full. We went inside The Aviary Cafe instead and it was a good decision since it was a sweltering morning and the cafe was air-conditioned.

We ordered a couple of floss bread and pasta. I had carbonara.

The food court is just in front of the water fountain and near the lake. One of the things we were unhappy about the new zoo is that boating is no longer available for visitors.

Crocodile, Lion, and More Animals

After lunch, we checked the other animals, particularly the crocodile that our youngest was looking for. He helped read the signs leading to the crocs.

Although it was hot that mid-day, some of the areas of the zoo had pathways with canopies for visitors to walk through. The canopy helped block some of the direct sunlight.

After visiting the reptiles, we went to see the other birds including the Brahminy Kite who graced us with their flying sessions.

Next, we went to see the lions

Now the biggest pen is where the Ostritch, Philippine Deer, and Zebra were. There was a signage for a giraffe but we didn’t see any.

We went back to see the primates however, the man guarding it told us that we need to enter through the children’s playpark before we see the monkeys. Doing so, we need to purchase from them some foot covers. I did not bother to ask how much it was and we just left since the kids weren’t interested in those. Plus, it was so hot already, we just wanted to wrap it up and go home.

The zoo was filled with different kinds of plants and I appreciate that they placed name tags for them, including the scientific name. This is a great way to familiarize yourself with plants, specially for those who are taking botany or landscape design.

The Butterfly Garden

Our last stop was the butterfly garden. There was a museum of butterflies that had a small gift shop. And they have a garden (which reminded me of Singapore’s Gardens by the Bay) where live butterflies can come to greet you.

Before leaving the zoo, we had snacks at the food court. We got some waffles, fruit juice, and milk tea.

Overall Review

The Manila Zoo has transformed itself to a modern zoo when it comes to cleanliness, design, and organization. However, I find the ticket prices too pricey for a public zoo. Specially that other animals were not in their pens. They said though that they will add more animals.

But overall, the zoo is waaaaaay better than it was before.

My worry though is, that the common Pinoy families may not be able to afford a 300-pesos ticket for an adult or a 200-pesos for a child. Food and drinks are not allowed inside (except for the water in your tumbler) which may be an additional expense for a family. It has transformed from an affordable option for Filipinos to a place where ticket prices may discourage low-income families from visiting.

Moreover, although I appreciate the modern way of registering to enter the zoo, I found it too invasive in my privacy since the name, barangay and city, email, age and phone number were requirements even if we were not buying the tickets as Manila residents.

Furthermore, the non-existent ticket booth for non-techy visitors in the zoo may discourage others. Not everyone can register online, you know.

I still encourage parents to visit the zoo with their children. It is a great bonding with the family and an opportunity for them to learn more about these animals, how to protect them and the environment.

Have you recently visited the Manila Zoo? What were your favorites?

The new setup and renovation makes it more pleasant looking and modern kaya siguro nagtaas sila ng ticket prize. Nagulat ako nung nalaman ko ang presyo, buong akala ko napakamura (I even thought na libre 😂) lang pumasyal dun. We got there opening pa lang so kahit marami na rin tao, nakapark kami ng maayos. True walang giraffe at hippo na nakita, and yes may capybara nga at madami sila.😁

Nakakagulat talaga yung price. Hopefully they add more animals para sulit naman ang bayad. Haha! Sabi na nga ba capybara yun asa hyena pen. 😀

Sa totoo lang I am not a fan of zoos kasi naaawa ako sa animals. Kagaya ng sabi mo, mas bet ko ring nasa wild sila. The last time we visited super liit pa ni Bunso at hindi na kami bumalik kasi awang-awa ako sa kalagayan ng mga animals doon na feel mong pagod na sila.

Happy ako kasi mas naging free na ang animals to explore sa bagong bihis na Manila Zoo. Medyo pricey nga siya compared before kasi para mas maging maayos ang maintenance siguro. We’ll visit din siguro ulit sa darating na panahon for educational purposes.

Yes, for maintenance. May isang comment nga sa page ng zoo. Sana daw yung discount sa ticket ng Manila residents eh same lang sa non-Manila tutal dumayo pa daw sila at gumastos pamasahe to visit the zoo. May point sila. Haha!

Top Destinations for Fieldtrips

• March 19, 2018

It’s summer and what better way to spend it on field trips with friends! For us, like most homeschoolers, it’s not really a way to take time off from learning. In fact, we always look forward to field trips or educational travels, holiday or not.

Here are the Top Destinations for Fieldtrips

Museum museums can be found all over the globe. Most of not all, Children’s museums are hands-on and interactive that can occupy the whole family for hours, even the whole day.

Locally, we have Museong Pambata (read 20 Things We Learned in Museo Pambata ) and whole lot of other must visit museums: The Mind Museum,  The National Museum , Philippine Science Centrum,  Quezon City Experience (QCX), Philippine Sports Museum,  Bible Museum ,  BenCab Museum in Baguio  and many others.

Historical Sites, Monuments and Famous Landmarks

Visiting a historical place is another idea for a learning vacation. We kicked off our history class by visiting Cebu – going to the oldest city and oldest street in the country, and so much more. In Manila, a trip to Luneta would be a good start.

When we were in Singapore and Busan, we did a walking tour to check bridges, as Gab has been fascinated and interested in them, and these does not have admission fees:   Exploring Bridges in Singapore |  Places to Go in Busan For Kids

Read more of our Cebu Trip here: Cebu City Educational Tour for Kids | Places to Go in Cebu City

Zoos, Farms, Parks or Gardens

There are numerous learning opportunities when visiting a zoo or a farm. You can talk about habitats, life cycles, and importance of conservation and animal care.

In Manila, we have the Manila Zoo, the Avilon Zoo or the Manila Ocean Park. There are farms in Laguna, Cavite and Bulacan that offers tours to kids. We also have  Nayong Pilipino (in Rizal Park and another one in Pampanga).

Planning for a field trip does not have to cost an arm and a leg. It isn’t necessarily to be in a new location (though traveling can be a great experience and side-benefit!). The great thing about learning is that it can happen in any place that’s new to your child, something she or he has not seen or experienced before.

The United States exported more liquefied natural gas (LNG) than any other country in 2023. U.S. LNG exports averaged 11.9 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d)—a 12% increase (1.3 Bcf/d) compared with 2022, according to data from our Natural Gas Monthly .

LNG exports from Australia and Qatar—the world’s two other largest LNG exporters—each ranged from 10.1 Bcf/d to 10.5 Bcf/d annually between 2020 and 2023, according to data from Cedigaz . Russia and Malaysia were the fourth- and fifth-highest LNG exporters globally over the last five years (2019–23). In 2023, LNG exports from Russia averaged 4.2 Bcf/d, and exports from Malaysia average 3.5 Bcf/d.

U.S. LNG exports increased in the first half of 2023 after Freeport LNG returned to service in February and ramped up to full production by April. Relatively strong demand for LNG in Europe amid high international natural gas prices supported increased U.S. LNG exports during the year. U.S. LNG exports set monthly records late last year: 12.9 Bcf/d in November, followed by 13.6 Bcf/d in December. We estimate that utilization of U.S. LNG export capacity averaged 104% of nominal capacity and 86% of peak capacity across the seven U.S. LNG terminals operating in 2023.

Similar to 2022, Europe (including Türkiye) remained the primary destination for U.S. LNG exports in 2023 , accounting for 66% (7.8 Bcf/d) of U.S. exports, followed by Asia at 26% (3.1 Bcf/d) and Latin America and the Middle East with a combined 8% (0.9 Bcf/d).

In 2023, Europe (EU-27 and the UK) continued to import LNG to compensate for the loss of natural gas previously supplied by pipeline from Russia . Europe’s LNG imports capacity continued to expand, and we expect it will increase by more than one-third between 2021 and 2024 .

The countries that imported the most U.S. LNG were the Netherlands, France, and the UK, with a combined 35% (4.2 Bcf/d) of all U.S. LNG exports. LNG imports increased in the Netherlands after the Gate LNG regasification terminal was expanded and two new floating storage and regasification units (FSRUs) were commissioned. Germany began importing LNG in 2023 when three new FSRUs were commissioned. We expect another four terminals (three of which are FSRUs) to come online between 2024 and 2027.

In Asia, Japan and South Korea each received 0.8 Bcf/d of LNG exports from the United States, the fourth- and fifth-highest U.S. LNG export volumes by country in 2023. Japan, China, and India increased LNG imports from the United States by a combined 0.6 Bcf/d compared with 2022. The Philippines and Vietnam started importing LNG in 2023; the Philippines imported LNG cargoes from the United States only in October and November.

In Latin America, U.S. LNG exports to Brazil continued to decline last year as Brazil continued to primarily use hydropower for electricity generation. U.S. LNG exports to Brazil peaked in 2021, when the country experienced its worst drought in more than 90 years.
