Educational Tour at Elsie Gaches Village

My Classmates at Elsie Gaches Multi-Purpose Hall

The pictures were taken when we have our Educational tour at Elsie Gaches (Alabang, Muntinlupa City) last March 7, 2012).

It was my first time to go at Elsie Gaches so as we were on our way, there's so many question that linger in my mind like what is the feature of the institution, what specific mental retardation do they accept, does their facilities are enough for all the clients they have and what activities they have for client? This all questions was answered when the psychologist in Elsie Gaches tour us in different wards of the institution.

I learned a lot from the social worker who orient us before we visit all the clients, from the only doctor who give us information about the different diseases that the clients have and from the only one psychologist there who tour us in different wards.

While having our tour, I saw the clients feel happy to see us. Some clients greet us and want to talk with us. There also some clients who play football,  do some handicrafts, trained on some household  chores.
