AROUND 10,000 public elementary students in Tagbilaran City will receive free physical education (PE) uniforms from the City Government.
The initiative is part of the city’s continuing support for education and for Tagbilaranon families.
Mayor Jane Yap led the initial distribution at Cabawan Elementary School on September 28, 2026.
The rollout marked the start of the citywide distribution.
The program is among the activities lined up for Tagbilaran City’s 60th Charter Anniversary and the 34th National Family Week.
It reflects the city government’s thrust to extend practical assistance to students and their families.
Mayor Yap said the provision of uniforms aims to ease school-related expenses for parents.
She added that it also ensures students have the proper attire for their physical education activities.
“Providing school needs, even in simple ways, can make a difference to our families,” Yap said.
“This is our way of helping parents with their expenses while making sure our children have what they need for school,” she added.
The distribution continued in other public elementary schools across the city.
Uniforms were distributed at Ubujan Elementary School on October 7, at Taloto Elementary School on October 8, and at Booy Elementary School on October 9.
It underscores the City Government’s focus on making assistance more responsive to the everyday needs of Tagbilaranon families.
The initiative is also aligned with this year’s 60th Charter Anniversary theme, “One Family, One City: Shaped by the Pamilyang Tagbilaranon.”
The theme highlights the city government’s commitment to supporting children and families as part of the larger Tagbilaranon community.
