SULU – Provincial Governor Toto Tan led local officials in the inauguration Monday of a day-care center in the capital town of Jolo.
The center is only one of many infrastructure projects of the Provincial Government. Tan said he hopes to expand the project to other municipalities that will largely benefit children and give them quality education they rightfully deserve.
Provincial government photos show the inauguration July 9, 2018 of the Sulu Provincial Day-Care Center, said to be the first of its kind in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao.
Tan also provided desk top computers, including books and visual aids for the day-care center which is the first of its kind in the Muslim autonomous region to which Sulu belongs.
The 3-classroom day-care center also has an individual comfort room and a playroom complete with educational tools and toys which are all safe for children. It has e-books and the facility is connected to the Internet or Wi-Fi.
The center, which provides free supervision and care of young children during the daytime particularly so that their parents can hold jobs, was the initiative of Tan, who first proposed this in 2016, along with another project – a public library. (Mindanao Examiner)
