La Salle Green Hills

One of the eighteen (18) De La Salle campuses of De La Salle Philippines, Inc.

  • Address & Directions
  • History & Memorable Moments
    • In 1956, the De La Salle Brothers of then De La Salle College Manila acquired a 6-hectare piece of land in the then undeveloped Green Hills area. The late Br U. Alphonsus FSC reminisced in The Green Hills Ranger (Volume III / Number 4 / April 1964): "Rev. Brother H. Gabriel, the then Auxiliary Visitor shouldered the responsibility of forming the policy of the operation and establishing the Brothers' schools between 1950 and 1962. He foresaw the urgent need of another La Salle somewhere close to the new Subdivisions of the Ortigas Co. and a lot of six hectares was obtained in 1955(?) for the purpose. Construction was started on the buildings which were ready for the opening of the school year 1957-58(?)." Former La Salle Green Hills Principal Br Dominic (Aquinas) Berardelli remembers [Sep 4, 2007 11:31 PM]: "The Brothers purchased on 5 hectares and the owners gave us one additional hectare for free as a thank you! I felt the Brothers should have 'demanded' the entire land (and even more hectares) for FREE since, once the sign 'future site of La Salle School' went into the ground the property values for the nearby land sky rocketed. At that time there was nothing there but empty fields and cogon grass and our closest neighbor was the army Camp Crame nearby."
    • In July 1959, La Salle Green Hills opened its doors to two preparatory sections and one section each for grades one and two. "In 1959 the enrollment started with Prep, Grade One and Grade Two. The total number was a mere 178 boys taught by six teachers under the direction of Brother U. Alphonsus who had some thirty years of previous classroom experience. Then we were just another small school somewhere in the deserted, streetless, uninhabited (except by heads of carabaos) rolling hills near the then hardly used Highway 54. In the distance we could see our nearest neighbors the Army Camps, Camp Murphy and Camp Crame. A short two years later, cemented roads were being laid out. Gilmore Avenue became passable and the students identified themselves as the Rangers of Green Hills." [from The Green Hills Ranger (Volume III / Number 4 / April 1964)] (Note: LSGH is the fourth oldest La Salle campus in the Philippines, after the original De La Salle University in Manila [1911] , University of St. La Salle in Bacolod [1952], and the La Salle Academy in Iligan [1958].)
    • In 1959, the National Shrine of the Divine Child was inaugurated.
    • On August 24, 1960, La Salle Green Hills, Inc. was registered as a non-stock, non-profit corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
    • On December 4, 1960, "the student body transferred from the Central House and occupied the first unit of the actual future school plant." [from The Green Hills Ranger (Volume III / Number 4 / April 1964)]
    • On December 8, 1960, the very first First Holy Communion services were held.
    • In 1962, Br Rafe Donato FSC organized the La Salle Green Hills Band under the baton of Mr. Undag. After Br Rafe's departure for the U.S. for further studies, (former Br Cornelius) Peter Tejada took over as Brother moderator of the band with Mr. Avelino Mejico (of the La Salle Taft Band) as band conductor and Felix "Cliff" Peronilla Jr. [LSGH68/PR1MUS] as band officer.
    • In 1962, the first La Salle Green Hills Rangers Football Team, coached by (former Br) Samuel Bueser, joined the BOFA (Boys' Football Association). Some members of the team were Jojun Abreu, Jet Agana, Sery La Rosa, Chuck Laurel, Boboy Macapagal, Rody Reyes, Johnny Sun and Jaime Ugarte.
    • In the March 1964 issue [Volume IV / Number 5 / Page 5] of the (DLSC Manila) Junior Archer Magazine was an article entitled "Commencement Exercises" that read: "For the first and the last time in the history of the De La Salle Grade School Department, two commencement exercises will be held on April 23, 1964 at three-thirty and at five-thirty in the afternoon at the Athanasius Memorial Hall with Rev. Brother Malachy, FSC and Brother Bertin, FSC, as commencement speakers. The first commencement exercises at 3:30 will be the graduation of the 182 grade six students who will take the first of five years of the new De la Salle High School curriculum in La Salle Green Hills." In the same issue was this article entitled "New School Curriculum." It read: "The new five-year high school development program of De La Salle will take effect next school-year, 1964-1965. Starting next school year all elementary graduates from La Salle Taft will take up their high school studies in La Salle Green Hills, Mandaluyong, Rizal. The grade seven graduates this year will be the last group that will be taken in the high school department of De La Salle Manila."
    • On April 23, 1964, thirty-six (36) students received their diplomas during the very first Grade School Graduation Ceremonies in La Salle Green Hills. The graduation speaker was President Diosdado Macapagal.
    • In the April 1964 issue [Volume III / Number 4] of The Green Hills Ranger was this article entitled "The Five-Year High School Plan." It read: "There is need to change the high school curriculum of De La Salle College to gear it to the needs of the time. Such a change would involve the adoption of programs in science and mathematics which are in keeping with the modern rends wothout sacrificing the language arts and the social sciences. To effect this change without envisioning a five-year secondary program is to overburden the student who at present has far too many subjects to handle in the secondary curriculum. For this reason the Christian Brothers will put into effect in August, 1964, a five-year school plan keyed to the national effort towards industrialization. [Official documents on when and why LSGH decided to go back to a four-year high school are still to be found.]
    • In August 1964, the La Salle Green Hills High School was established.
    • On October 30, 1964, the first inter-section elimination in Declamation for grades six and seven was held. Awards were given to Frederick Bautista (first place), Federico Borromeo (second) and Mario Ghezzi (third), all from Grade Seven Class. The members of the board of judges were Br Andrew, Br Felix and Mr. Domingo.
    • On November 20, 1964, the first inter-section declamation contest for the High School Department was held. The winners were: Ramon Rivero, first place for his magnificent interpretation of "Creation" by James Weldon Johnson; Jose Salces, second place, for his dramatic portrayal of Judas in despair; and Vicente Campa for his very convincing rendition of "The Man With The Hoe."
    • On November 23, 1964, the "Freshmen and Grade Six and Seven students ... transferred to the new (High School Building)."
    • From November 27 to 28, three La Salle Green Hills students represented the school in the inter-La Salle Speech Festival held in Bacolod. All three came home with a medal. Hilarion Henares was awarded the gold medal for his interpretation of two excerpts from Shakespeare's King Lear and Hamlet. Luis Stuart received a bronze medal for his dramatic rendition of a Thurber story, "The Night the Bed Fell"; while Richard Scheerer won third place for his "The Priceless Gift" speech in the oratorical contest.
    • In 1964, the La Salle Green Hills Science Club was formed with (former Br) Samuel Bueser as moderator. Officers were Demetrio "Bong" Santos (President), Jose "Pepot" Hernandez (Vice-President) and Ramon "Bambi" Del Rosario (Secretary).

The coaches were (former Br Cornelius) Peter Tejada [SY 1965-1965]; Bart Tolentino [SY 1965-1966]; and Tony Esclabanan [SY 1966-1967]. Former team member Jay Gervasio remembers [Sep 4, 2007 10:33 AM]: "Our games were quite few. I recall playing against Xavier, Lourdes, Letran, San Sebastian..."
    • For School Year 1964-1965, "Mr. Bart Tolentino handled the La Salle Green Hills Midget Basketball Team. After hard and persistent training, the Midgets went on to win the championship of the South Division dethroning De La Salle College which held the championship since the founding of the AAL. In the championship round the Midgets settled for third place behind Xavier and San Beda." [from The Green Hills Ranger (Volume IV/ Number 4 / May 1965)]
    • In the summer of 1966, the first La Salle Green Hills Cadet Officers Candidate School [COCS] was conducted by Francisco "Kit" Sanz [former Corps Commander of the Preparatory Naval Training (PNT), De La Salle College Manila) with technical consultant Master Sergeant Saldana of the Philippine Marines. The training was capped by a Commissioning Ball (theme song was Chad & Jeremy's "A Summer Song") at the Valley Golf Clubhouse, Antipolo in May 1966. The first Corps Commander was Jay Gervasio [LSGH68/PR1MUS]; and the first Model Company Commander was Ramon "Tito" Sarmiento [LSGH68/PR1MUS].
    • In 1966, The Strangers and Comrades, a Junior folk-singing group (composed of LSGH68/PR1MUS), won the second prize trophy in the Boys Hi-SCA Folk Singing Competition held at the University of Santo Tomas. The group was second only to La Salle Taft. The third place was won by the Letran group.
    • In 1966, the first La Salle Green Hills - Ateneo dual meet was held. In 1969, the dual meets were cancelled due to unruly behavior from both sides.
    • In 1966, La Salle Green Hills held its first school wide marathon. The inaugural event was won by Francis "Skippy" Urtula [LSGH70/TERTIUS]. It became an annual event after that.
    • In 1966, the very first La Salle Green Hills Student Council was established. Its first president was Jose "Josy" Salces [LSGH68/PR1MUS] who's now based in Madrid, Spain practicing law.
    • In 1966, The Lazette (a portmanteau of "La Salle" and "Gazette"), the first LSGH high school newspaper, was published and moderated by Br Rafe Donato FSC. (Its first editor-in-chief, Enrique Y. Teehankee [LSGH68/PR1MUS], topped the Philippine Bar Examination in 1976, probably the very first LSGH alumnus to do so.) In the December 20, 1966 issue of The Lazette [Volume I Number 4], the editorial box lists the following members of the "Board of Editors": Cliff Peronilla Jr. [Associate Editor]; Mike Enriquez [Managing Editor]; Joey Hernandez [Sports]; Paul Pascal and Popoy Diokno [Photography]; Jay Gervasio and Adie Pena [Art]; Ronnie Henares [Features]; and Alan Dakay, Dick Scheerer and George Bocobo [Contributing Editors], all from LSGH68/PR1MUS.
    • On December 3, 1966, sophomore Hilarion "Ronnie" Henares III [LSGH68/PR1MUS] won the 14th National Voice Of Democracy, an oratorical competition, at the Phil-Am Life Auditorium with a speech entitled "To Be Free." The competition was judged by former Lady Ambassador Trinidad Legarda, Senator Jovito Salonga, and Mr. Celso Carunungan. "Ronnie Henares, with the able proctoring of drama director Mr. Jose Gamboa and Brother Raphael Donato, English Department head, brisked through the district eliminations and regional finals where he met with the conqueror of La Salle Taft, the Malate representative." To celebrate his triumph, La Salle Green Hills honored Ronnie on December 7, 1966 with a "brief but warm program ... graced with the presence of school dignitaries, Jaycee officials and other guests." (According to Ronnie Henares himself [Sep 4, 2007 11:33 PM]: "I was the first and only LSGH student to win that contest as far as I know.")

    • In the summer of 1967, the first "combined" (i.e., with players from LSGH and DLSC Manila) NCAA La Salle Junior Basketball Team was formed. The twelve (12)members from LSGH were (Co-Captain) Jay Gervasio [LSGH68/PR1MUS], Miguel Bilbao [LSGH68/PR1MUS], Raffy Rillo [LSGH68/PR1MUS], Santi Torroba [LSGH68/PR1MUS], Joey Hernandez [LSGH68/PR1MUS], Tito Pronstroller [LSGH68/PR1MUS], Rody Reyes [LSGH68/PR1MUS], Lito Tanjuatco [LSGH68/PR1MUS], Bobby Yatco [LSGH68/PR1MUS], Nonong Santillan [LSGH69/SEGUNDUS], Butch Araneta [LSGH69/SEGUNDUS] and Rene Policarpio [LSGH70/TERTIUS]. The remaining three slots were filled in by members from DLSC Manila -- (Captain) Ambie Santos, Chema Jordana and Vic Rothenberg. Coach was Licerio "Jun" Alicante, Jr. (former DLSC seniors basketball team captain); Sports Moderator was (former Br) Samuel Bueser; and the two Team Managers were Butch Villaruz [LSGH68/PR1MUS] and Greg del Rosario [DLSC Manila]. Former team member Lito Tanjuatco remembers [Tuesday, September 4, 2007 3:34:01 PM]: "(T)he St. Benilde gym was not yet built at that time. As such, we were practicing in the cement courts and as Jay (Gervasio) would recall we all had a good tan and had the darkest complexion in the whole NCAA. Later on we would have Friday practices at DLSC, the now demolished Brother Athanasius Gym. That required all of us travelling from LSGH (immediately after our 2:35 dismissal) to practice in Taft at 3:30 or 4:00."
    • In 1967, the construction of a dome-shaped structure in the school grounds began. (The St. Benilde Hall was completed in 1969. Nicknamed "siopao" by the students then, the gym/cafeteria has become the most recognizable building in the campus.)

    • In 1968, SCOPE, the first La Salle Green Hills high school annual was published. Featuring pencil sketches (instead of the standard B&W photographs) of the 188 graduating seniors and a 45 RPM vinyl disc containing original songs, the four-volume edition encased in a black slipbox was conceptualized by Br Rafe Donato FSC. Dated April 25, 1968, First Lady Imelda Romualdez Marcos wrote in the preface of the annual: "Best wishes to the first graduates of the High School Department of La Salle Green Hills!"
    • In 1968, the La Salle Green Hills Greenies (formerly La Salle Green Hills Rangers) entered the NCAA as the Junior Reps of then De La Salle College Manila, taking over the slot of the latter's phased out High School.
