The MathSciFil Dynasty, led by Mayor Kynt Nathaniel Tambuson and supported by the College of Education at Central Philippine University (CPU), organized an engaging outreach event at USWAG San Isidro Elementary School. This initiative, called the MSF Olympics, aimed to transform education through gamified learning, engaging Grade 4 students in interactive activities covering Mathematics, Science, and Filipino subjects.

The school gymnasium buzzed with energy and excitement as students took part in five carefully designed games facilitated by the officers of the MathSciFil Dynasty. These activities were not only entertaining but also encouraged collaboration, critical thinking, and a deeper appreciation for the subjects. The event demonstrated how learning can be dynamic and enjoyable when traditional methods are enhanced by interactive strategies.

The initiative sought to increase student engagement, improve learning outcomes, foster teamwork, connect lessons to real-life applications, and inspire students to excel in Mathematics, Science, and Filipino. By promoting progressive and interactive education, the event underscored the MathSciFil Dynasty’s commitment to making learning both fun and meaningful.

These goals align with the MathSciFil Dynasty’s advocacy for progressive, learner-centered education. Activities included team-building games and challenges that reflected the organization’s priorities: Mathematics – Empowering Students with Mathematics; Science – Waste Management and Backyard Gardening; and Filipino – Literacy in Indigenous Languages and Culture.

The students left the event not only with smiles and certificates but also with increased confidence in their academic abilities. Teachers and parents expressed appreciation for the initiative, emphasizing its role in inspiring a love for learning. The distribution of snacks and school kits further highlighted the event’s mission to provide holistic support for students.

This outreach project exemplifies CPU’s commitment to community engagement and educational innovation. As part of its broader effort to nurture future leaders, the MathSciFil Dynasty’s MSF Olympics stands as a model for how collaboration and creativity can make education accessible, engaging, and impactful.
