Diclum ES pupil wins International Art Contest award

The Diclum Elementary School takes pride of its yet another achievement, but now in a much grander scale---International Level.

After making history in 2009 as the first and only public school participant from the Philippines in the 2009 World Water Monitoring Day, the Diclum Elementary School again made history this time.



Cris Lorenz S. Calubiran, a Class 2011 Valedictorian, won an Excellence Award in the 2010-2011 Mitsubishi Asian Children's Enikki Festa (Festival Asian Children's Art). 

There were four (4) of them from the Philippines who won the same award and another four (4) Filipino children who won the Grand Prix and Organizers' Choice awards.  These eight (8) children from the Philippines were among the 74 winners picked from 24 participating countries in Asia. 

The winners (Excellence Award) won a certificate from Mitsubishi Public Affairs Committee and Department of Education Philippines, a commemorative gift, and a book collection of the 2010-11 Enikki Festa winning artworks.

The  Mitsubishi Asian Children's Enikki Festa 2010-11 was held in 2010 in 24 Asian countries and regions with the theme "Let me tell you about how we live."  Including those from Japan, a total of 77,338 entries (each entry consisting of 5 works) were received.  Screening committees in each country and region held  primary screenings to select eight works from among those received and then sent them to Japan. There were 564,612 drawings that have been received since the start of the project.
