A Bond of Friendship between Hakodate La Salle and La Salle Academy Iligan

The One La Salle International Collaborative Performance was created by students from La Salle Academy Iligan, Philippines and the Hakodate La Salle Junior High School as an expression of their One La Salle spirit.

The project was started in April 2025. By June, teachers from both Lasallian school begun meeting online to plan. Young Lasallians from both schools spent the next two months working together to prepare for the show.

Through video conferencing, the Sinag Tala Culture and Arts Artists of La Salle Academy and the first-year students of Hakodate La Salle worked together and overcame distance and borders to unite their hearts into the project.

The final performance was done during the final of the Hakodate La Salle School Festival last 19 July 2025. It deeply moved the audience and was awarded the Grand Prize of the school festival. Br. Antonio Cubillas FSC, principal of Kagoshima La Salle, also sent a heartfelt message to both schools in support of the collaboration.

This project is start of a deeper and lasting connection between the two Lasallian institutions, and they look forward to more opportunities for cross-border collaborations in LEAD.
