Despite the fact that we are facing with more problems brought about by the global pandemic of Covid 19, the government had never stopped from giving support to the severely wasted and wasted children in all public schools nationwide through the SBFP in order to improve their health status. Improving the health status of these children could protect them from contracting diseases like the dreadful Covid 19, as this can have a devastating effect on small bodies already weak from poor nutrition.
As a way of showing support to the government’s program, Baay Elementary School having 163 pupil-recipients, started the implementation of the SBFP in the new normal last October 5, 2020. Since there is no face to face between teachers and pupil- recipients, the parents of the SBFP recipients were informed to come to school for the distribution of food, such as bread and fruits from the SBFP. Health protocols are followed during the distribution to prevent the spread of the disease. To minimize a face to face contact between teachers and parents of SBFP recipients, the distribution of bread and fruits for five days was done once a week.
The implementation of the SBFP during the first month was successful with the concerted effort and cooperation of the Baay Teaching Force and Personnel especially to the SBFP teachers’ in-charge led by the School Feeding Coordinator Mrs. Irene A. Pauco, the members Mrs. Marylee U. Gacuray, Mrs. Jennifer A. Sembrano, Mrs. Bethany G. Cruz and parents of the SBFP recipients through the leadership and guidance of the very motherly school principal, Dr. Josephine C. Tanigue.
