Br. Leo Flavius Hall







          The Brother Leo Flavius FSC Hall is the canteen where most of the DLSZ students enjoy their breaks and their food. It is located right between gate 2 and gate 5. It is used by the Zaide food service, which offers a wide variety of food and beverages, ranging from Japanese to Chinese, Italian to Filipino, even an all American breakfast meal. Zaide boasts its eye-catching ceiling fan, called the “Big Ass Fan” which is as big as approximately ¼ of the Zaide canteen. Zaide provides us the food and comfort that students need throughout their student life.

Our Lady of the Star Chapel




      The Our Lady of the Star Chapel (OLSTAR) is a religious place of fellowship, prayer and worship – most often associated with interfaith worship services. Most students commonly refer to the OLSTAR as the Chapel. In the OLSTAR, students frequently visit to express their faith. As a catholic school, it is a must to have a place for worship to carry out and teach the students of the faith and zeal by the religio, mores and kultura of DLSZ.

      The OLSTARcontains many different amenities like the adoration chapel, Campus Ministry Office, Parmenie, prayer room, wellness center, and a peaceful garden. These amenities available in the chapel help and expand the different possibilities of worship not just through prayer but by singing, retreats, consultations and prayer meetings. Visitors are welcome to visit everyday including weekends mass is always held at 7:30 am during the whole week. The OLSTAR chapel brings the whole community together and provides services to the community.

The Sports Pavilion




     




           During the early years, the Sports Pavilion was called Gym 1. This gym is the most commonly used by most of the athletes in DLSZ. The renovation of this gym changed the whole interior of the place and brought in new equipment as well. If you look closely you can still see the triangle shape from the end of the gym. That triangle shape is the trademark of Gym 1, which is a reminder to everyone that there is always something old in something new. Not only is this pavilion dedicated to sports but also for events like dance showcases, event launchings, masses, presentations, competitions and Fair Openings. This place can accommodate the entire grade school and high school population. The Sports Pavilion is one of the buildings that DLSZ is most proud of as it shows the great architecture and collaboration of sports and facilities in the whole gym. 

            This is known for the great looking basketball court which is patterned from the NBA basketball court. The Sports Pavilion also has two volleyball courts, three futsal courts, a stage, the Sports Development Office (SDO), Physical Development Office, Parents Association Office,  Judo room, dance studio, table tennis room,  chess room and a track oval. The Sports Pavilion showcases Lasallian pride in sports and helps develop the students camaraderie, in team works and friendly competitions.
