Group Activities:  School Visit: "Lake Sebu, South Cotabato: T’boli School of Indigenous Knowledge And Traditions" (SIKAT)

In Tagalog, “sikat” refers to the shining sun, its rays, the first light of dawn – the beginning of a new day. It is a symbol for hope, and hope lay on the hands of the children. In their hearts and minds rest the fate of our country. They are the future, and future begins today in their second home called school.

Today, we will visit T’boli School of Indigenous Knowledge And Traditions, or SIKAT, that provide underprivileged T’boli kids of Lake Sebu an opportunity for good education. SIKAT follows the basic curriculum in elementary which are similarly offered in other schools in the country. But unlike most, the institution’s unique approach, deeply-rooted to its core values, creates an avenue for hands-on heritage preservation through indigenous education. Here, culture and tradition are more than just lessons – it is a way of life.
