9 October 2009 - Xavier Hall was filled with people garbed in green as Gabay Week 2009 has finally arrived. Themed "Breaking Barriers, Building Bridges," GW aims to promote sportsmanship and camaraderie among scholars through sports events, provide additional learning experiences for the scholars other than academics, encourage active participation from the members, and provide an avenue for the scholars to develop their skills and talents.
What makes Gabay Week so special is that it provides three days of fun-filled activities to the scholars after working hard in their recently concluded exams. Special highlights include a Talent Competition on Day 1, Mr. and Mrs. Gabay on Day 2, and Modern Dance/Dance Sports on Day 3 with a Grand Ball after the Awarding Ceremony. Aside from fun and games, Gabay Week also provides special seminars such as "Seminar on Stress Management" and "Leadership Seminar."
Gabay Week, in its third year, is spearheaded by Ms. Emmalyn Escalderon (IV BSA), President of Gabay Scholar's Organization, under the guidance of Ms. Evelyn Amaro (Gabay Moderator) of the Office of Admission and Aid.
