It is Our Responsibility

The things we use for our everyday life come from the natural resources we have. All of that are produced by our environment. Within the past years, we can see a big difference on the situation of our nature right now. It means our environment is getting destroyed, day by day.


Being aware of what’s happening to our nature is a big deal. We must learn to conserve and clean to help save our Mother Earth. Celebrating the National Environmental Awareness Month this November 2019 is a step to saving our planet. Awareness is the very first thing everyone should have and others will follow. This celebration will help give everyone a heads up about the situation of Mother Nature.

All of us need to help each other in order to help our environment gain its previous figure. It is for ourselves, too anyway, and for the future generations who will live in this world.

Significance of the Young Ones

Childhood makes a character of a person and it is one of the most joyous part of life. That is why nurturing a child means a lot to their parents and to the community. We must guide the youth to make them ready for their future. 

This November, the National Children’s Month is celebrated. The theme is “Karapatang Pambata: Patuloy na Pahalagahan at Gampanan Tungo sa Magandang Kinabukasan” in connection to emphasize their rights as a child and as a person.  It is to recognize the importance of children in a community and let them enjoy further being a child. One of the activities of Vigan City is a parade for the youngsters. Also, letting them experience to work like a city official to prepare them for the job they want to pursue in the future. 


In helping the children grow up beautifully, from the inside to outside, we can help the country in having better generations for tomorrow.

Be the Better Person

Value denotes the degree of importance of some thing or action, with the aim of determining what actions are best to do or what way is best to live, or to describe the significance of different actions. It can be defined as broad preferences concerning appropriate courses of actions or outcomes. Thus, values are needed to be taught to children so they can use these good deeds to make the world a better place to live in.

In connection with this, Values Month is celebrated in schools with the theme of “Pamilyang Pilipino Patatagin: Susi sa Paghubog ng Kabataang Makadiyos, Makatao, Makakalikasan, at Makabansa”. Through this, students can share the knowledge and talents they have by the activities and contests prepared by EsP (Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao) club officers.

These kind of interactions will make the youth more active and learn more about how to be a righteous person. Especially nowadays that many people have bad intentions towards others, the youth can be really the hope of the future by obtaining discipline, wiseness, responsibility, and doing the right thing. This way, the place can be more peaceful and love can prosper all around the world.

Unity is Present, Always Competent

Ever since October 24, 1948, the celebration of the United Nations already took place. It was suggested by the General Assembly to be recognized as a public holiday to its member states. Being one of the United Nations, Philippines see to it that even schools take part in the said celebration.

United Nations is an organization which contributes to achieve a better world by promoting human rights, social progress and world peace. It seeks to improve maternal health, to combat HIV/AIDS, malaria, and other diseases, to ensure environmental sustainability, and to develop a global partnership for development. 

This year was declared as the International Year of Indigenous Languages. In Ilocos Sur National High School, the Social Studies Club lead the commemoration by conducting activities such as quiz bees, and one of the most awaited, the highlight of the celebration, the Search for Mr. and Ms. UN 2019. Participants represented different countries which are members of the United Nations. They wore traditional costumes from various places to show the culture of the country they represented. The event was indeed a good show both for teachers and students.

It is important for everyone to know and value this kind of celebrations because it is to show our gratitude for the right leaders who really care about international issues and makes progress to have a better world for us and for the future generations.
