Hi, I'm one of the students who performed there! Our teacher is Teacher Malaya! It's sad that we Don have ukulele at grade 5 to college. Our school in the Philippines, dipolog is Dipolog Pilot Demonstration School. Grades 1-4 performed this. I am a grade 4 pupil. The song we played is called One Day. The second song is called Remember us this way. We have practised for 1-2 months for this. Thank you all for making this popular and making this possible. We are more than 100 kids, possibly 200-500 kids.

The boy you're a fond of is actually my nephew, his name is Ashton and he'd be so proud of himself because you happened to notice him. So thank you! Hahahahahahaha sending love from the Philippines.

Growing up in the Philippines I remember singing the National anthem with the whole school in the school yard then once everybody is in the classroom the day starts with a little program where teacher assigns an MC for the day and the MC gets to call on the performers one by one to perform in front of the class. It’s kept simple with usually solo singing or poem presentation. I didn’t realize then that it was a form of character development besides being trained for literary and musical.

Punishment in elementary schools in the Philippines would be to sing a song in front of your classmates. Lol

this is part of our educational curriculum .. music. as we grow up we are introduced to music.. aside from singing.. ( the national anthem, traditional/folk songs and even pop songs) we are introduced to musical instruments.. the most basic is the ukelele ...

Awesome performance.. Pupils from Phillipines.. Proud Filipino children 👍❤️🙏 Thank you for sharing this vedio Love you both Waleska Herera❤️🙏

Music is a thing in the Philippines. Young and old are hopelessly romantic when it comes to listening to good music, singing, or playing musical instruments. My niece learned to play clarinet at an early age. She goes with her dad in every music stint our hometown band is invited to. She took it after her father who is a trumpeter and guitarist. My family excels in creative arts. Our father was a well-known musician who taught music and played trumpets, drums, and guitar. Though i stopped playing the guitar after an accident and hurt one of my fingers, I did well in watercolor painting.

Filipino or Filipina students was so very disciplined from home to their schools that's why they learned in a week or a days only.

This is literally the school where they train Filipinos to eventually join Efra’s group of Filipinos to welcome aliens on earth 😂

I remember when i was a kid every morning we sang. all the children at the school and sang That's our morning routine. Every school in the Philippines that time has that routine they call it a flag ceremony. I remember we sang local Christmas songs. Nostalgia moment.

the teacher is very IMPRESSIVE AND SUPERB! my God how she was able to discipline and encourage these kids! wow wow wow i salute you teacher!❤️❤️❤️ congratulations kids for listening your teacher.

Kids in the other countries sings nursery rhymes but here in the Philippines we sing powerful songs hahaha

This is normal in the philippines. In my grade school days, i was a member of our rondalla group where i play ukelele and guitar. We accompany the singing of the philippine national anthem. We even do carollings every december where we sang house to house christmas songs. A group composed of 50 plus pupils/students. And even graduation ceremonies, the graduating students sing their farewel graduation song. I remember in my high school grad, we sang bridge over troubled water.

Schools in the Philippines are full of singing! Pinoy teacher here! ❤

Have you watched graduations and moving up ceremonies where the students sang MAPA of SB19 as their graduation song?😊❤🎉🎉🎉

This is really usual in the Philippines. My father was once a conductor in a Rondalla which is an ensemble of stringed instruments. There would be around more or less 30 elementary students. It’s so fun because they would be playing on weekends early morning at our house and once they play, my sleep is over 😅

Philippines is a promise land. One day our country will shine and the Filipino will be the proudest people in the world..

Love these children singing Lady GaGA's iconic song. The music teacher did a wonderful job. Thanks for this episode, God bless

Growing up, we learned about harmonization at school during music class. every year there’s chorale competition amongst each class by batch

through out the whole of our educational career here in the Philippines music, dance, and the arts are integral part of it. thank you po!

Nice seeing your reactions Guapong Waleska and magandang Efra !God bless you and mabuhay !

I remember doing something similar when I was in elementary back in the Philippines. The whole music class would perform on different venues, sometimes in another city and help get donations for our school. 😊

i remember my elementary days, i played banduria and need to sing also every morning in flag ceremony, i think thats one way of vocalization🤔a happy memory in the Philippines❤

I graduated from this elementary school in 1980. Thank you for featuring this. I also learned the ukelele when I was in grade 4.

Soon as I saw the steps where they sat, my memory brought me back to my school days when we had to do the same musical or dance performances. And when I checked the original video, it was no surprise that the video was actually from the very same school I graduated from, the Dipolog Pilot Demonstration School, which recently celebrated its centennial anniversary. Bravo, DPDS!

I remember my child when he was still in grade 1. I told him to sing a nutsery rhyme in front of my parents, his grandparents. He said" Mom, nursery rhymes are just for day care and kindergarten, I'm already in Grade 1".

You guys are Filipino Favorites.....Thank you fot your LOVE..!!!

This is actually my elementary school back in the Philippines and they did that to celebrate the 100th anniversary of my dear alma mater Dipolog Pilot Demonstration School ❤ ahh i miss that stairs i used to run and play there while waiting for my mom to pick me up after school..

thanks Waleska and Efra,i told you you‘ll enjoy and amaze with this elementary children of Dipolog.thanks again till another video.🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

Filipinos are amazing

95% of the Philippines is a good singing ❤😊 and I'm proud that I'm in to 5% ❤🎉😂 balakayojan

That's how it is in Philippine grade school. There's programs every week. Sing national anthem everyday.

We sing 2 to 3 songs everyday during flag ceremony in our school. We were already trained to sing since we were kids 😅

It brings back memories of my school days. We did have Music classes from elementary to high school (it's still in the curriculum today) where we all learn church songs (I know 4 versions of Our Father in English and 3 versions in Tagalog). If we're interested we can join the church choir or sign up for bandurria classes. Singing is such an integral part of school here. We sing the national anthem every morning. We have Music classes. We have choir competitions where every class has to participate. We have singing contests where you represent your class. We have school activities with intermission numbers which is almost always someone singing. There's also Buwan Ng Wika (Language Month) where we sing Tagalog songs exclusively in competitions.

Schools in the Philippines, mostly in the province, have this special class for arts, music, dancing, acting, and speech and writing. Which is very much awesome because we don't pay for those things but the children get it free from their respected schools from their teachers as their mentor who will mould them starting from grade 1 up to grade 6 and continue until in high school. My daughters was a choir member at their school, they were taught about voice lessons while playing ukelele but that was before the pandemic started.

Proud to be Filipino because ever since big value of music, dance, and performance are great the school develope the talent also compitition at age 6 there pageant like little miss and adorable kids❤❤❤

Thank you Waleska & Efra, for recognizing Filipinos. 🌹❤️💀🇵🇭🗡️👍

Thank you for reacting to our performance you can't see me because I was on the other side and the person who recorded our performance is on the other side so my face is blurred but thank you so much we are so happy to see this thank you

That my friend is one of the many secrets as to why there are many talented singers in the Philippines!

hello waleska and efra. good day and peace be with you always. im a 65 yrs old FILIPINO and studied elementary education in a governments school in our place. during our times, there were a lot of extra curricular actvities in our school. one of which was playing in rondalla. we were taught on how to play a string instrument that was similar to a guitar but a smaller with different kind of strings. those were the days were we enjoy each we had to practice and performed in front of our parents, teachers and other invited guests. Oh how I missed those memories so much. thank you for featuring this and hope to see more. stay safe always and GOD BLESS US ALL !!! MORE POWER

Awesome kids!Good job. Kudos to the teacher.

Yay! Proud Mommy here❤ My son is the one with the blue uke, who u said is funny😂

Philippines gradually progresses through their talents

The kids perfomance are so good!!! I am in that school!

Only in the Philippines 😅 Filipinos loves to sing, love this video❤❤❤👍

So cute!!! I cant stop smiling!

Ooooh! That’s my school! Batch 2012 here 🙋🏻‍♀️ I do remember during my 3rd grade there we were required to have our own ukelele because we all need to learn how to play it.

I'm very impressed too salamat teacher students 😊

When i was in elementary we always sing.... there are carol competition every christmas. We were trained. We practice vocalization a lot 😂

i'm a Flipino and this is the first time i watch this video.. oh my gosh this is so good and it touches me.. 😍

These kids deserve the world❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

What is so awsome with the Philippines's educational curriculum is the integration of music as a separate subject, from early learners 'till highschool. . .and a yearly "Song Fest" in every level and each section would perform competetively at school level. 🎉

❤❤❤ OMG! Totally reminded me of our bands in school. We had a strings band and lots of POP and rock bands. Learned to play Mandolin and guitar but eventually the drum kit called my name.

Reminds me of my childhood when I was a member of the community rondalla at our municipal in the Philippines. Thank you for featuring them. You both should come in the Philippines soon!

if i am not mustaken, since its the end of the school year, this is part ofcthe commencement program of the school... They are singing to their parents...At an early age, We Filipino's are not just being trained to sing...we are taught to sing from the heart😊

We do have MAPEH Classes where you probably do not have a choice but to sing or dance even thou you think you can't HAHAHAHAHA because in order to finish a certain grade or level, you have to pass MAPEH too. Music, Arts, Physical Ed, and Health. Aside from that, you get to always sing every weekday for flag ceremony before classes start where it is basically Prayer, National Anthem, Patriotic Oath, Sing the 'Ako ay Pilipino' and for us in MIMAROPA Region, we also sing the Palawan March and then, a Dancercise (Dance × Exercise).

I had this in elementary! Part of our music class 😂

That's my Alma Mater " Dipolog Pilot Demonstration School" year 1985 graduate ❤

many philippines secondary schools have school bands, rondalla (group using string instruments like guitar, banduria, octavina, bandolina, etc), music clubs/groups. aside from graduations, juniors and seniors prom activities have also a theme song every year. a great number of drummers playing on streets are worthy of your reactions. try looking for filipino festivals like dinagyang, maskara, sinulog , aliwan etc.

I am from Dipolog City and graduated from the same school Dipolog Pilot Demonstration School. The conductor in the video was also my conductor when we won choral competition in the Philippines :) Proud to be a product from DPDS! DPDS just celebrated its 100 years and just had its grand alumni homecoming this month, and our batch will also have Christmas reunion in December for Christmas holidays! Many DPDS alumni are now working in Philippine politics, mathematicians, scientists in the UK, chef in dubai a and more. Dipolog City is a very tiny coastal city in zamboanga del norte. :)

Thank you for appreciatings the talents of this kids and the teacher.Yes its not easy to train the kids in this age..

Ahhh sweet.. I love your enthusiasm too on your reaction..

0:42 I love that you both simultaneously grab your right earphone to them better.

Thanks so much for appreciating the song of my idol the golden voice Superstar Nora Aunor the National Artists of Film and Arts.God bless and more power to your chanel..

lol but yes we had these in grade school too in the province. i played angklung while singing, piano and singing...music is highly encouraged so much so we have this program every Friday where all the students gather like a general assembly for an hour for school updates and a variety show😅 😅😅

Singing in school is just our punishment when we don't do good that's our consequence. At first we act shy but hahahaha well bruhh~~ singing? We're just having a hard time to think which song to pick than worrying our voice. 🥲😅 I miss my school days so bad. 🥲 Love your reactions 😍 Proud Pilipino here❤

Just amazing❤

Filipino sing from d heart and they having fun doin it, thats why they are great singers💪💪💪💪

I remember way back high school, before teachers sign our clearance sheets we have to perform either sing or dance or any talent you might have.

I am a pilipino i would like to thanks reaction this children student from thd philippines amazing😊

Life journey as a students in the Philippines are much memorable and enjoyable your going to miss it if u getting old 😂😂😂...

When I was in elementary our school and it was a big school around 5 classes per grade would often have these big productions with customs and all. We would dance or sing or both, we would do it in our big basketball court. I wish we could have seen ourselves like this, it was the 80's no videos like this. There were competitions per grade on who has the best productions. Realizing it now, all our teachers were troopers adding this to their already overflowing duties. It was fun though and we get to play around when our teachers are not looking.

This is literally me when i was a kid. I used to play banduria. A small kind of guitar. Missed those days

Hi waleska and efra I'm your soild subscriber from philippines....take care always guys....

It's One day !!! 😍😍

Watching from Dipolog🇵🇭

Awww..my elementary school..😢..it's Dipolog Pilot Demonstration School...Dipolog City, Zamboanga del Norte..

children in the philippines starting young! now what's the percentage out of them all will become really good singers? probably a big percentage! but they probably become nurses or engineers and then go home and sing the karaoke at a really high caliber 😊😊

This brings back memories from elementary school in the Philippines 😊🙈

that’s the reason why even in the deepest part of jungle in the philippines you could find singers 😅you just need a guitar and a liquor and a karaoke

I remember having a music class during my elementary days in Philippines…

Nice to watch this

I had yulele too during my school day’s ❤❤❤

Ahhh... those days of painful feets, sweat, no voice coz of repeat practice on singing and dance ... This is so cool though... As for the teachers, they're so underpaid.

Love watchin with you 😂 amazing chilren❤

Music is life here in the Philippines..

Woohoo I'm there!!! Never knew they posted this
