International students from Singapore visited Dumaguete and painted murals on the walls of public elementary and high schools in the city.

The International Community School in Singapore sent 21 of its students here in conducting outreach programs with the Pastoral Training Center of Asia.

Delegation head Stephen Moore said they had painted the walls of the North City Elementary School, the basketball court of the Negros Oriental Provincial Hospital, the Negros Oriental High School with animals using different colors of the rainbow.

For them, the rainbow symbolizes the promise of God’s love to mankind.

Painted on the walls are different kinds of animals, those which were placed inside Noah’s ark in the Biblical passage that when the big floods came, they were all saved.

“The message is that God still loves us and that we have to be thankful about,” said Moore.

The 21 foreign students are from Korea, Indonesia, Singapore, Australia, America and Japan. They will leave the country on Friday for Singapore.
