3 Things to remember on your First Day at Pines

Happy first day to our new students! We know how nerve-wracking it can be to start something new, but don't worry, we've got your back. We've put together a list of three things that will help make your day go smoothly and be unforgettable. So take a deep breath, relax, and let's make your first day one to remember!1. More than Just an ID CardWe are delighted to share wonderful information about the Pines ID card, which will be your go-to resource during your time on campus.You'll need to take a photo on your first day for your ID card. Don't you know that your ID can be used to pay for school services, doubles as a room key, and allows you to log in and out of the school premises? Just a heads up, this card cannot be shared and can only be used by the student to whom it's issued.2. Important Academic Goal: Test of English Proficiency- Global As you prepare for your first day at Pines International Academy, remember that you are starting your English journey that will shape your future, so we'll take you through a series of activities that will help you get started on the right foot. The Level Test (Test of English Proficiency-Global or TEP-G) Schedule for new students will be held on the first Monday after your arrival on campus, and it is held in the Test Center which is located on the second floor.  This will be your first step towards achieving your academic goals.3. First Day ScheduleWe'll start with breakfast from 7:20 AM to 8:00 AM, and then at 8:00 AM, we'll ask you to head over to the front desk on the 3rd floor and hand over your passport.Between 8:20 AM and 10:30 AM, we'll have a level test for listening, writing, and reading (TEP-G or level test). After that, from 10:30 AM to 11:30 AM, the ID picture-taking will take place before taking the speaking test which is the final part of TEP-G.Lunchtime is scheduled from 11:40 AM to 12:20 PM, and then in the afternoon, from 1:30 PM to 2:30 PM, we'll have a new student orientation. Between 2:30 PM and 4:30 PM, we'll have a currency exchange and local fee collection.Dinner time is from 5:30 PM to 6:20 PM, and then you'll have free time from 6:20 PM to 10:00 PM.

Pines Academy Students Conduct Outreach Program at Irisan Elementary School

On March 23, the students and staff members of Pines Language Academy participated in an outreach program at Irisan Elementary School. The main objective of this event was to promote community engagement and support educational initiatives, which included fun activities and educational exchanges. During the outreach program, Pines students and staff members generously distributed snacks and facilitated language exchange activities with students from Irisan Elementary School. The program's key component was the language exchange activities for cultural and linguistic exchange between the Pines and Irisan students. Through engaging games, origami sessions, and dance workshops, participants immersed themselves in interactive learning experiences. Origami sessions sparked creativity and fine motor skills development among the young learners, fostering a sense of accomplishment and joy. The program also featured lively dance sessions, where participants enthusiastically showcased their dance moves. Through rhythmic movements and coordinated steps, students from Pines and Irisan Elementary School celebrated diversity and unity, building lasting bonds beyond language barriers. The outreach program not only enriched the educational experience of the students but also strengthened community ties between Pines Language Academy and Irisan Elementary School. Check out the highlights of the outreach program.

Taiwanese BESA Fam Tour Highlights at Pines Academy

The Baguio English Schools Association hosted the Taiwanese Familiarization Tour opening at Pines Academy filled with exploration and cultural exchange on March 18, 2024. The Taiwanese delegates started the tour by visiting the Botanical Garden to be reminded of Baguio City's rich ornamental plant resources and experience the picturesque Mines View Park. They have also dropped in at the Mansion House. They arrived at Pines Academy for a campus tour and the official opening ceremony of the BESA Taiwanese tour at 4 pm after a delightful lunch at Camp Johnhay's Seafood Island.The event marked a significant moment for collaboration and partnership with the attendance of 14 Taiwanese partner agencies, along with representatives from the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) through the presence of Supervising TESDA Specialist Marie Bulatao and Bureau of Immigration-CAR Alien Control Officer (ACO) Theodore Pascual. The opening ceremony hosts were JIC's Academic Director, Brian Pobre, and Pines' Marketing Manager, Rona Dale Ortiz. After listening to their compelling speeches, Pines' Marketing Manager, Rona Dale Ortiz, rendered a presentation about Baguio City with points on why it is the ideal place for studying the English language. The program concluded with a video presentation establishing the city's strategic location for students to travel during weekends or at some point in their study period. The delegates proceeded to The Manor Hotel for dinner to continue fostering bonds. The delegates spent the second day of the fam tour visiting the Pines IELTS Campus. They roamed around the IELTS Specialized Campus checking out the facilities and were also able to witness a demo class on how we conduct our IELTS Speaking Classes. One of the agents became a demo student and was able to experience the personalized coaching of our top teachers. With coaching and class overview provided, everybody understood each section of our IELTS Speaking Classes. We are lucky enough that our partners have spent time on the first 2 days getting information updates from both campuses of Pines Academy. We are beyond grateful to our Taiwanese partners for their visit and unwavering support of  Baguio City academies.
