PHILIPPINES FLOATING SCHOOL - Filipino Children Living On Water (Isabela, Basilan)

Описание: THE PHILIPPINES HAS A FLOATING SCHOOL!

Filipino children in Barangay Tampalan, Isabela City, Basilan, live on the water. And their school is also on the water!

You see, this is a Badjao community. And the 1100 elementary age children go to school in a familiar setting for them. The school buildings might look like the standard DepEd design - but they are built on stilts, elevated above the water!

First, we head to the last island of Isabela, Lampinigan. Then a quick trip to Moro Island, another vital innovation for the fisherfolks here. And finally, we take a trip through this floating barangay to their school - whose principal is a former student!
