Taguig elementary students to receive free haircut Monday

MANILA, Philippines – Students from Tenement Elementary School in Taguig City are in for a new treat – a free haircut—at the start of classes on Monday, a Radyo Inquirer report said.

The free haircut, the report said, was part of the nationwide programs of the Department of Education (DepEd) to promote cleanliness in all public schools.

Aside from the DepEd, the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) headed by its director general, Secretary Joel Villanueva, and local government officials of Taguig were also expected to join at this Monday’s activity.

Livelihood skills demonstrations such as fancy accessory making, wheat processing, and water lily making will also be given for mothers and companions of the  students, the report said.
