The Soul of Christmas

          Christmas is the birth of our savior Jesus Christ. Jesus was born to redeem our sins, to save us sinners from the fire of purgatory. This yuletide season is not only for the celebration. It is not just for giving and receiving gifts. Let us think for the true essence of this season.
          Christmas is for loving, loving your family, loving your friends, loving your neighbor, loving your enemy and loving your self as Christ loves us.
          Christmas is a time of forgiving, forgiving those who hurt you and asking someone to forgive you for all the things that you did or said.
          Christmas is a time of giving. Let us practice the deeds of giving. Give someone what they need. As they say, always share your blessings because it will return more than what you give. Always remember that what you have is a blessing from God. For God loves the world He gave us His only son. If God can give His only son to redeem our sins and later on died on a cross. It is a little thing for us to give and share what we have in this world to others and to the church.

The Nutrition Month

          The month of July is the so-called Nutrition Month. It is celebrated every year by the local government and by us, the students. The theme of the celebration changes every year. And this year’s theme is "Ugaliing Magtanim, Sapat na Nutrisyon Aanihin!”           The Philippines has lots of lands that can be planted by vegetables. And almost all schools have vacant land where they can plant vegetables and fruits. Planting vegetables is taught to students to help them understand the value of it. In the school grounds, they can plant eggplant, chili, pumpkin, and much more. They can also plant in old plastic bottles. If the children already know how to plant and they already know the benefits that they can get from it, they will take this knowledge to their homes. And there, they will plant for their families.           These vegetables are full of nutrients that will strengthen our body. Eating vegetables gives strength to our body so that we can work right and study

A letter for the President

July 09, 2018 PRESIDENT RODRIGO DUTERTE Malacañang  Palace Compound, J.P. Laurel Street, San Miguel, Manila, 1005 Philippines Dear Mr. President:                A blessed day to you! It is not usual for me to write to the president of the country, to you. I am a student, currently in Grade10 in Ilocos Sur National High School. This letter of mine is my way to express my opinion and to call your attention regarding our situation in our school because of the K-12.                Usually our school has a lot of enrollees but this year, it came to the point that our school needs to implement shifting of classes for the grade 9 and 10 students. It is because  of the large number of students who are enrolled here from grade 7 to grade 12. And I think the curriculum that the students need to learn compromised. Because they need to teach all the subjects in a limited time. The grade 10 students' schedule is until 6:45 P.M. and it is unusual for us not to b e in our house on that ti
