In support to Department of Education (DepEd) Memorandum No. 069, series of 2023 entitled โ€œGuidelines on the implementation of the Project DepEd 236,000 Trees - A Christmas Gift for the Children, CENRO Catanauan provides four thousand one hundred twenty-four (4,124) different fruit-bearing seedlings which were planted in the premises of various schools within CENRO Catanauan jurisdiction.
 
The simultaneous tree planting activity was conducted last December 6, 2023 within the jurisdiction of CENRO Catanauan Office vis-ร -vis Alibijaban Elementary School at Brgy. Alibijaban, San Andres, Quezon, wherein kick-off activity was held. Likewise, said activity was participated in by one hundred fifteen (115) public schools.
 
The said activity aims to provide a unique educational opportunity for students to actively participate in tree planting activities, fostering a deeper understanding of environmental issues, and promoting conservation efforts. In addition, planting trees will contribute to the beautification of school grounds and provide shade, improve air quality, and create a calming atmosphere to have a more pleasant and conducive learning environment for students. ###
