To solidify the partnership and continued participation of shipping companies and educational institutions with the Adopt A Ship program, IMO Ambassador Mr. George Hoyt, alongside the AASI Team embarked on a series of significant visits and meetings. In every meeting and discussion, Mr. Hoyt proudly showcased the beautiful artworks made by the students during their Adopt a Ship activities at school, including a unique board game created by Magsaysay Elementary School in San Pedro, Laguna. The game, inspired by Snakes and Ladders, is designed as a world map where students must correctly answer questions to advance to the finish line with the roll of a dice. The questions, drawn from the weekly exchanges between students and ship officers, include topics on geography. The Schools Division Office of San Pedro praised the board game and decided to expand its reach by involving all 20 elementary schools in an inter-school competition in November.
