WEATHER ADVISORY AND SAFETY REMINDER
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Please be informed that, based on the latest Thunderstorm Advisory No. 5 issued by PAGASA at 5:39 AM today, August 18, 2026, moderate to heavy rainshowers, lightning, and strong winds are currently being experienced in Anini-y, Antique, and these conditions may persist for 1 to 2 hours. The advisory also warns of possible flash floods and landslides.
We would like to clarify that Anini-y is currently NOT included under the Red or Orange Rainfall Warning. Therefore, there is NO automatic suspension of classes based solely on the present rainfall warning.
However, the safety of our learners remains our highest priority.
To our dear parents and guardians, if you believe that it is dangerous for your child to travel to school because of the weather conditions in your area, please DO NOT allow your child to leave home. We fully understand and respect your decision to prioritize your child’s safety.
Likewise, learners who are residing in mountainous areas where landslides may occur are strongly advised not to attempt to travel to school when conditions are unsafe. Those coming from flood-prone areas or areas with impassable or hazardous roads and bridges should likewise remain at home until it is safe to travel.
Parents and learners are advised to:
* Stay alert and continuously monitor weather updates from PAGASA and local authorities.
* Assess the actual condition of roads, bridges, rivers, and surrounding areas before travelling.
* Do not cross flooded roads, rivers, or bridges.
* Avoid travelling through areas with possible landslide hazards.
* Immediately prioritize safety whenever travelling becomes dangerous.
Please be guided accordingly. We continue to monitor the situation closely and will issue further announcements should conditions change or an official suspension be declared.
Let us remain vigilant, responsible, and informed.
SAFETY ALWAYS COMES FIRST.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
