Inauguration of Henry Sy Sr. Hall, Assumption College, San Lorenzo (April 11, 2018)
The President of Assumption College, Dr. Carmen Lourdes Valdes and Sr. Mary Sheryl Reyes, Provincial of the Religious of the Assumption, Southeast Asia Province welcomed honored guests, patrons, alumnae, family, and friends to the inauguration of the new Henry Sy Sr. Hall donated by the Henry Sy Sr. Foundation. The building is the home new programs of Assumption such as iNay: Circle of Leaders and Learners, Counselling and Assessment Services at Assumption (CASA), and ABLe: Ability Based Learning nestled in the campus of Assumption College, San Lorenzo.
Henry Sy Sr. Hall is donated by the Henry Sy Sr. Foundation, designed by Architect Willy Coscoluela, and interiors designed by Chito Miguel. The Museum Exhibits were curated by Teresa Custodio.
The Patrons of the Henry Sy Sr. Hall, and the new Milleret Building are:

The Henry Sy Sr. Hall is comprised of state-of-the-art facilities in a five-story building. It includes the Paradiso Exhibit Hall, Liwanag Innovation Center, Pardo Thater, Chinshi Contemplation Garden, Entheos, Harmony Review Room, Discovery Room, and Ani-Culinary Corner. These venues are available for the transformative education for adults, counselling, and youth learning.
An intimate gathering with the Assumption Sisters, Board of Trustees, President’s Council, and BDO Foundation was held last January 8, 2018 to bless the newly built Henry Sy Sr. Hall and newly renovated Milleret Building. We ask for God’s grace that He blesses the building, the events and programs that it will house, and most especially the people who will be working inside it.
Education opens up the mind, expands and allows to improve life in so many ways.
Movement Class of Assumption Sisters with Erwin Gaspar
Keep exploring and recharging through movement. Each movement is the sum total of moments and experiences.
Movement Class is an intimate morning exercise for the senior citizen nuns and young nuns of Assumption College. The class, facilitated by Metta iNay Coordinate Team Leader Erwin Gaspar, practice various physical workout exercises, theater games, movement, dance, and meditation.
Aside from movement exercises, the nuns are also taught simple choreography. They usually perform their dances during the institutional christmas party of Assumption every December and during the Feast of St. Marie Eugenie, founders of Assumption every March. Some of the pieces that the Assumption Sisters performed are King and I's "Getting to The Know You", South Pacific's "Happy Talk", Philippine Folk Dances: Carinosa, Singkil, Salidumay, and Nimo Patel's song "Grateful" from the Empty Hands album.
Dance is the joy of movement and the heart of life. ❤️
