GRR airs back-to-school special

MANILA, Philippines - Are you aware that almost 24 million students went back to school last June 3?

GMA News TV 11’s Gandang Ricky Reyes Todo Na Toh (GRR TNT) presents the excited and gregarious young ones who seem to miss the campus, teachers and classmates after their two months and a half school vacation.

Host Ricky Reyes visits students in various exclusive schools in the Metropolis who are more blessed and luckier their parents and guardians can afford high tuition fees, clean and air-conditioned rooms, comfortable and sanitary toilets and well-kept library, gymnasium and surroundings.

 The TV viewers will witness GRR TNT’s staff and crew distributing bags, notebooks, pencils, writing pads and other school supplies to students in an indigent community in Norzagaray, Bulacan. “We will go back there to provide them slippers, raincoats and umbrellas. I pity those public school girls and boys who wish to be educated in spite of the long and tiring trek from remote areas, poverty and discomfort,” says Ricky.

Ricky’s mascot Chikadora goes to Divisoria to give tips to late shoppers at the Binondo malls popular for the cheap items.

 On Gandang Make Over, several college girls are given instructions on how to look fresh, good and fashionable.

GRR TNT, produced by ScriptoVision, airs Saturdays at 9 a.m.
