Pinahanga at pinasaya ang lahat sa nakakaaliw na pagtatanghal na inihandog ng 𝐁𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐕 - 𝐒𝐞𝐤𝐬𝐲𝐨𝐧 𝐅𝐢𝐠 𝐓𝐫𝐞𝐞 sa pangunguna ng kanilang g**ong tagapayo na si Ginoong Noel Pedrosa. Tampok dito ang mga nakakatuwa at kahanga-hangang magic tricks na ginawa nila. Nagbigay ito ng ngiti at kasiyahan hindi lang sa mga mag-aaral, kundi pati na rin sa mga g**o.

Para sa 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞 𝐅𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐤: 𝑷𝒂𝒈𝒊𝒈𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑫𝒊-𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒂𝒔𝒂𝒓𝒊𝒍𝒊 (Selflessness), binigyang-diin nila kung gaano kahalaga ang pag-iisip hindi lang para sa sarili, kundi para rin sa kapakanan ng iba. Kasabay nito, binigyang-pansin din ang ating PEACE Values, at sama-sama nating binigkas ang Bully Free Pledge bilang pangako na gawing ligtas, magalang, at mapagmahal ang ating paaralan.

Sa pagtatapos, binati ng aming Master Teacher na si Gng. Yolanda Evelyn Ablin ang buong klase ng seksyon Fig Tree sa kanilang mahusay na pagtatanghal. Nagbigay din siya ng ilang paalala at muling binigyang-diin ang halaga ng Pagiging Di-makasarili .

Naisagawa ng 𝐁𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐕 - 𝐒𝐞𝐤𝐬𝐲𝐨𝐧 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐨𝐧 kasama ang kanilang g**ong tagapayo na si Gng. Melissa Marie Margate nitong Lunes ng umaga. Maayos at maagap na naipakita ang programa.

Para sa Value Focus of the Week: 𝐏𝐚𝐠𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐮𝐲𝐨𝐝 𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐤𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐊𝐚𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐡𝐚𝐧 (Promotion of Common Good), binigyan diin nila ang kahalagahan ng pagtutulungan para sa kapakanan ng lahat. Sa kanilang makabuluhang paliwanag, binahagi nila ang mga simpleng halimbawa kung paano natin maisasabuhay ito — sa paglilinis ng paligid, paggalang sa kapwa, pagtulong sa kaibigan, at pagiging responsable sa paaralan at komunidad. Nawa’y tumimo ito sa puso ng bawat isa.

Sa pagtatapos, binigyang pagkilala ng mga g**ong tagasanay ang mga atleta natin para sa kanilang sipag at husay sa kani-kanilang larangan. Mabuhay kayo! 👏🏆

At upang salubungin ang Buwan ng Wikang Pambansa ngayong Agosto, inaanyayahan namin ang lahat na gamitin at pahalagahan ang ating sariling wika.

Matagumpay na naisagawa ang seremonya mula simula hanggang dulo dahil sa dedikasyon ng 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐕 - 𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐡 at ng kanilang g**ong tagapayo na si Gng. Belle Antonette Caldito. Itinuon nila sa kanilang presentasyon ang kahalagahan ng "𝗣𝗔𝗠𝗕𝗔𝗡𝗦𝗔𝗡𝗚 𝗣𝗔𝗚𝗠𝗔𝗠𝗔𝗟𝗔𝗞𝗜" (National Pride) at nagbahagi ng maikling paliwanag upang maitanim ito sa puso ng mga mag-aaral at ng mga g**o. Ang kanilang presentasyon ay nagpapaalala sa mga mag-aaral na mahalin at pahalagahan ang sariling wika, kultura at kasaysayan. Binigyan-diin din nila ang mga pagpapahalagang 𝑷𝑬𝑨𝑪𝑬 — 𝑷𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑬𝒎𝒑𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒚, 𝑨𝒄𝒄𝒆𝒑𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒏𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑬𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚𝒅𝒂𝒚 — at hinikayat ang bawat mag-aaral na isabuhay ito.

Bilang pagwawakas, nagbigay ng paalala ang ating Punong-g**o na si Gng. Solyma S. De la Cruz tungkol sa Pambansang Pagmamalaki at nag-anunsyo ng mga mahahalagang gawain. Binati rin niya tayo bilang pagsisimula ng pagdiriwang sa buwan ng Agosto — ang Buwan ng Wikang Pambansa.

We began the week with unity as Grade V - Flamingo and their adviser, Ma'am Hazel Joy Sandoval, led today’s Flag Ceremony.

From start to finish, our learners enjoyed every part of the presentation. The adviser centered the morning on our Value Focus of the Week: 𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐃𝐄𝐏𝐄𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄, with a short but powerful explanation to help us carry this value in our hearts. Indeed, our strength lies in teamwork, respect, and helping hands.

Our School Principal, Ma'am Solyma S. De la Cruz, ended the program with a reminder to everyone of the importance of Interdependence and shared a few school announcements.

Today’s flag ceremony was led by our learners from Grade VI - Parsley and their adviser, Ma'am Ma. Joan Patricia Panisa. The morning was filled with energy as our students enjoyed a dance presentation then gathered to watch a video presentation highlighting on our 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞 𝐅𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐤: 𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐀𝐆𝐄. We were also reminded of PEACE Values— Powering Empathy, Acceptance, and Connection Everyday.

Our Officer-in-Charge, Ma'am Melissa Marie Margate, gave a simple reminder to keep helping one another and to live out these values in and out of the classroom.

Courage is not the absence of fear, but the strength to rise, to care, and to do what is right. May we all carry this courage with us as we face each day with kindness and purpose. 🙏

Education and Training Center School II extends its heartfelt gratitude to 𝐌𝐚𝐲𝐨𝐫 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐠 𝐆𝐚𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐲𝐚 and the 𝐇𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐂𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐬 for the generous donation of school bags to our learners.

We also express our sincere appreciation to our School Principal, 𝐌𝐚'𝐚𝐦 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐲𝐦𝐚 𝐒. 𝐃𝐞 𝐥𝐚 𝐂𝐫𝐮𝐳, for her leadership and dedication in fostering partnerships that benefit our school community.

This morning’s flag ceremony was extra special as it was led by our Grade VI - Mint together with their adviser, Ma'am Flordeliz Inventor. Our learners enjoyed a lively dance presentation that set the tone of energy and unity for the week. The ceremony highlighted the 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞 𝐅𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐤: 𝑪𝑶𝑶𝑷𝑬𝑹𝑨𝑻𝑰𝑶𝑵 — working together, helping one another, and doing our part as a team. Their adviser also reminded everyone once again of PEACE values in our words, actions, and how we treat each other. 🧡

📌Also today, the learners and faculty members of 𝙀𝙙𝙪𝙘𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙏𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝘾𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙎𝙘𝙝𝙤𝙤𝙡 𝙄𝙄 gathered for the 𝗦𝗶𝗺𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗲𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗙𝗹𝗮𝗴 𝗥𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘆 in observance of the 𝟭𝟬𝘁𝗵 𝗔𝗻𝗻𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝟮𝟬𝟭𝟲 𝗦𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗮 𝗦𝗲𝗮 𝗔𝗿𝗯𝗶𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱.

📌The July 12, 2016 Arbitral Award confirmed that the Philippines can uphold its maritime rights peacefully under UNCLOS, using facts and principled diplomacy. It safeguards coastal communities, livelihoods, and one of the most biodiverse marine areas on earth — a reminder that sovereignty also means food security and better opportunities for every Filipino family. Ten years on, its message is clear: when we stand on principle, act within the law, and honor a rules-based order, every nation wins.

In closing, our School Principal, Ma'am Solyma S. De la Cruz, gave a short message encouraging everyone to live out these values not just in school, but in our everyday lives at home and in the community. 💚

The ceremony was a powerful kickoff to the week — 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐜𝐨𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐞, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐭𝐲.
