STA. CRUZ, Davao del Sur, May 30 (PIA) – Hedcor Sibulan, Inc. brought about the construction of a P50,000-worth of perimeter fence at Sibulan National High School of this town in support to the Department of Education’s (DepEd) Brigada Eskwela.
“In Sibulan, the construction of P50, 000 worth perimeter fence will assure students’ safety and help teachers guard their students during school hours,” said Hedcor Vice President Rolando Pacquaio.
Hedcor, a subsidiary of AboitizPower, hopes that the 10-meter fence project will significantly contributes to avoid student truancy.
Aside from building a fence, Hedcor personnel and volunteers also rendered services such as cutting grasses, landscaping gardens, cleaning classrooms, repairing chairs and tables, and changing busted lights.
The recipient secondary school is located at Barangay Sibulan, Sta. Cruz which hosts Hedcor Sibulan, Inc.’s 42.5 mega watts Sibulan Hydropower Plant.
