Featuring the Artworks of CPU Kindergarten Learners – Last November 17, 2025, the Bachelor of Early Childhood Education (BECEd) Gems opened the exhibit, A Gallery of ChildrenĢƵs Rights, at the Henry Luce III Library for this yearĢƵs ChildrenĢƵs Month celebration. The exhibit featured artworks by CPU Kindergarten learners highlighting the 12 Rights of Children.
The childrenĢƵs God-given talents were displayed in their paintings under the Visual Arts Interest Group of the CPU Kindergarten. The program was opened by the BECEd Program Head, Prof. Maristel D. Decio, and the reason for the celebration was given by the CPU Kindergarten Principal, Prof. Praise E. Glory. The ribbon-cutting ceremony was led by University President Rev. Dr. Ernest Howard B. Dagohoy. Learners, faculty, staff, parents, and guardians from the CPU Kindergarten department were also present during the opening ceremony. The exhibit would not have been possible without the help of the CPU CENVAS organization, which provided the structure for the display, and the CPU TV Channel, which provided a live broadcast of the program. The children’s artworks were displayed from November 17 to November 28.
