Travel blog: Thematic output 3rd quarter

Image
On January 22, we went to Vigan to watch the Longganisa Festival dance, which was held at Xentro Mall Vigan, in front of XM. The place was crowded and full of energy, with people excited to watch the performances. We took a lot of pictures as soon as the event started because the atmosphere was lively and colorful. It really felt like Vigan was alive with celebration that day. We were able to watch all the dancers from A1 to A6, then B1 to B2. The A-category dancers were mostly kids around 8–10 years old, but despite their young age, they were very talented and impressive. Their performances were well-coordinated, energetic, and confident, which amazed both the audience and us. It was nice to see how skilled and passionate the young dancers were. The dancers we supported were from ISNHS, which I think belonged to B2, and they did awesome as usual. Their performance stood out because of their strong execution and teamwork. I was there with my classmates Jessa and Ezra, and we enjoyed ch...

He is not just a hero, but also a writer, doctor, and a smart man who love his country so much. Instead of using weapons, he used his writings to open the eyes of Filipino people about the abuses of the Spanish colonizers.

3rd Quarter BLOG4 Indigenous

Image
  The National Indigenous Peoples Month in the Philippines is a celebration that reminds us how important Indigenous Peoples are in our country. The theme “Weaving Culture, Enriching Future: Empowering Indigenous Communities as Bedrock of Sustainable Development” shows that IP communities are not only part of our past but also very important in shaping the future. Their culture, traditions, and way of life teaches us lessons that modern society sometimes forgets. Indigenous Peoples have a strong connection to nature, and they know how to take care of the land without destroying it. Many of their traditions in farming, hunting, and using natural resources are passed down from generation to generation. These practices help protect the environment and shows us that development does not always mean building more buildings or using more technology. Sometimes, development means protecting what we already have. Empowering Indigenous communities also means respecting their rights and voice...

Elpidio Quirino 3rd Quarter Blog3

Image
  Elpidio Quirino’s story begins in Vigan, Ilocos Sur, where he was born on November 16, 1890, to a modest family that prized education as a path out of hardship. He worked his way through school, eventually earning a law degree from the University of the Philippines. That climb shaped his empathy for ordinary Filipinos and his belief that nation-building starts with opportunity education, dignity of work, and a government that remembers the poor and provincial as part of its core. His career traced the nation’s own trajectory from colony to republic. As a lawyer, assemblyman, and senator, Quirino learned the machinery of governance and the delicate art of compromise. He served in the postwar cabinet Finance and Foreign Affairs before becoming Vice President under Manuel Roxas. When Roxas died in 1948, Quirino stepped into the presidency, carrying the weight of rebuilding a country scarred by war and personal grief he had lost close family during World War II, a private tragedy tha...

Blog#1 Fighting for Children's safety

The 2025 National Children’s Month Celebration with the theme “OSAEC-CSAEM Wakasan: Kaligtasan at Karapatan ng Bata, Ipaglaban!” really give an important message to everyone. In our time today, many kids are using internet and not all of them is safe. Some bad people take advantage and do bad things to children online. This celebration remind us that we must protect every child from those danger and never ignore the small signs of abuse. For me, I can say that the government are doing effort to keep children safe. They have laws and program that focus on protecting children from abuse and online harm. The DSWD and DICT also help in spreading awareness about OSAEC and CSAEM, which is really good. But still, there are some people who don’t follow the rules and that’s why more action and support is needed. Also, parents and teachers should always guide their kids because they are the first protector. Children must know how to be safe online and not just trust anyone they talk to. Communit...
