Child Reader


This photograph was taken by my 6-year old daughter from her school. This is actually what her classroom looks like from the outside. Typical for hot summers being in a tropical country, an air-conditioned public school classroom can rarely be seen in the Philippines. This classroom houses about 50 public school grade one pupils. 

In the provinces, classes are being held starting from morning until afternoon. On the other hand, in Metro Manila, where public school classrooms are usually crowded, classes are being held per shift - first shit (morning), second shift (afternoon).
