Year 3 of Batang Kalasag 2026
2-Day Training on Emergency Response and Disaster Preparedness
On May 25โ26, 2026, the Year 3 Batang Kalasag Training on Emergency Response and Disaster Preparedness was successfully conducted at the Metro Naga Sports Complex, Pacol, Naga City.
The activity gathered children aged 10โ15 years old from the 27 barangays of Naga City, providing them with valuable knowledge and practical skills in disaster preparedness, emergency response, and community safety.
During the first day, participants learned basic first aid and emergency response techniques, including the proper application of bandages, basic wound care, safe handling of injured persons, familiarization with ambulance operations, and fundamental rescue procedures during emergencies and disasters.
On the second day, participants underwent Water Rescue Training, where they learned water safety awareness, proper rescue techniques, the use of life-saving equipment, and the importance of remaining calm and alert during water-related emergencies.
This meaningful activity was conducted in partnership with the City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (CDRRMO), the Barangay Council for the Protection of Children (BCPC), and the Naga City Children's Federation, demonstrating a shared commitment to empowering young people with life-saving skills and disaster preparedness knowledge.
Through interactive discussions, demonstrations, and hands-on activities, the participants developed confidence, leadership, and resilience, helping prepare them to become active contributors to safer and more disaster-ready communities.
Together, we are building a generation of informed, prepared, and resilient young leaders through Batang Kalasag 2026.
