Congratulations!!!

The Pandan NHS Arts and Photography Club proudly celebrated a milestone as their short film entry, “Supil,” received a Special Screening at the 2025 Children’s Month Short Films Festival. Representing the Castilla South District, the film powerfully embodied the festival’s theme, Hope Reels: Stories of Healing, Resilience, and Empowerment, during its showcase at the Bulwagan ng Karunungan, DepEd Sorsogon Province Building, Balogo Sports Complex, Sorsogon City on November 28, 2025. With emotional honesty and creative depth, “Supil” explored the silent yet heavy struggles that many children endure—struggles often overshadowed by the routines of daily life. Through its heartfelt storytelling, the film highlighted the transformative force of compassion, understanding, and courage, showing how hope can rise even in the most difficult circumstances.

The success of “Supil” stands as a testament to the dedication and artistry of the student filmmakers who poured their talent and advocacy into every scene. The film not only presented a narrative of pain and perseverance but also invited viewers to reflect on the importance of creating spaces where young people feel seen, heard, and supported. By illuminating the reality of children who suffer silently, the film urged communities to break cycles of neglect and empower the youth with empathy, guidance, and acceptance. Through its participation in the festival, the Pandan NHS Arts and Photography Club reaffirmed its mission to produce meaningful films that do more than entertain—they inspire awareness, dialogue, and positive change.

Behind this remarkable achievement were the mentors and supporters whose guidance made the journey possible. Coach Sir Arnel R. Lotino played a vital role in supervising and mentoring the students throughout the filmmaking process, ensuring that their vision was fully realized with craftsmanship and purpose. Sir Jovencio F. Gaton Jr., Guidance Counselor-Designate and Values Education Coordinator, provided unwavering encouragement that strengthened the artists’ confidence and clarity of message. The steadfast support and motivation from Sir Jerome N. Morada, School Head of Pandan NHS, empowered the team to strive for excellence. Additionally, the contribution of Sir Joel A. Meneses Jr., who lent and operated his drone, elevated the visual storytelling of the film and added stunning cinematic beauty. Together, their collective support transformed “Supil” into not only a film but a meaningful achievement built on collaboration, dedication, and heart.

After much anticipation and preparation, the long-awaited Intramurals at Pandan National High School finally pushed through and was successfully held from September 17 to 19, 2025. The event was spearheaded by the ever-committed Sports Coordinator, Sir John Carl M. Murillo, with full support from the school head, Sir Jerome N. Morada. The three-day celebration of sports and unity brought together both students and teachers who were grouped into four vibrant teams inspired by the kingdoms of Encantadia: the Yellow Sapiro, Red Hathoria, Green Adamya, and Blue Lireo. This creative theme added excitement and fantasy to the event, creating a magical atmosphere throughout the campus.

The opening day kicked off with a colorful parade featuring each team donning their thematic attire, reflecting the colors and symbolism of their assigned Encantadia kingdom. Both students and teachers marched proudly, waving flags and showing off their team spirit with confidence and joy. The opening program followed, highlighted by a series of spirited performances during the yell performances and the flag-raising ceremony. The athletes showcased their discipline, coordination, and unity, setting the tone for the competitive yet friendly matches that would unfold over the next two days.

Throughout the three-day event, students competed in a variety of sports disciplines including volleyball, badminton, chess, sepak takraw, and athletics. These competitions brought out the best in each participant, as they demonstrated not only physical prowess but also strategic thinking, resilience, and teamwork. The third day featured traditional Filipino games or larong lahi, which added a nostalgic and cultural element to the festivities. These games reminded everyone of the importance of heritage while reinforcing teamwork in a more relaxed and playful setting.

The success of the Intramurals 2025 was made possible by the collaboration of various stakeholders in the school community. The unwavering commitment of the school head and sports coordinator was matched by the dedication of the team managers, Sports Club officers, and tournament managers. Special recognition was given to the tournament managers who ensured the smooth conduct of each sport: John Carl M. Murillo for Volleyball, Arnel R. Lotino for Badminton, Alwin V. Latonero for Chess, and the tandem of Jovencio F. Gaton Jr. and Nicolo Mayo B. Infante for Athletics. Their efforts behind the scenes made the competitions fair, organized, and enjoyable for everyone involved.

On the final day, the awarding ceremony was held, celebrating the hard work and victories of the participants. Cheers and applause filled the venue as medals, certificates, and trophies were handed to the deserving winners. Green Adamya emerged as the overall champion of Intramurals 2025, showcasing their dominance in several sports categories. Red Hathoria took home the 1st runner-up title, followed by Blue Lireo as 2nd runner-up, and Yellow Sapiro as 3rd runner-up. Each team, regardless of ranking, exhibited commendable sportsmanship and unity, proving that the true essence of the intramurals lies in participation and growth.

This year’s intramurals was more than just a competition; it was a celebration of sportsmanship, camaraderie, and the showcasing of talents and skills among students and faculty alike. It fostered stronger bonds within the school community and created lasting memories that participants will carry with them long after the final whistle was blown. The successful staging of the event proved that with proper planning, cooperation, and shared enthusiasm, even the grandest visions—like an Encantadia-inspired sports fest—can come to life and become a triumph worth remembering.

08.28.2025 MAKABULUHAN AT MATAGUMPAY NA PAGDIRIWANG NG BUWAN NG WIKA 2025

Matagumpay na naidaos ang selebrasyon ng Buwan ng Wika 2025 sa Mataas na Paaralan ng Pandan na sinimulan sa makulay na parada sa pangunguna ng Punong-g**o, G. Jerome N. Morada, kasama ang mga g**o sa Departamento ng Filipino na sina Bb. Charity May B. Dayrit at Gng. Sarah A. Andes na katuwang sa pagbibigay saysay at kahalagahan sa naturang pagdiriwang. Malaki rin ang naging ambag ng mga g**o sa maingat na paghahanda para sa iba’t ibang kompetisyon na nilahukan ng mga mag-aaral, gaya ng dalawahang tinig, madulang pagbasa, balagtasan, at ang pinakatampok na bahagi ng selebrasyon—ang koronasyon ng Lakan at Lakambini 2025. 👑👸🤴

Lubos na ipinapaabot ng paaralan ang pasasalamat sa lahat ng mag-aaral na buong pusong nagpakita ng galing at talento, gayundin sa mga magulang na walang sawang sumusuporta sa kanilang mga anak. Gayon din, isang malaking pasasalamat ang inihahandog sa mga opisyal ng Barangay Pandan, SPTA officers, at sa mga hurado na naging bahagi ng matagumpay na pagtatanghal ng pagdiriwang, na nagpatunay ng pagkakaisa at malasakit ng buong pamayanan sa pagpapahalaga sa sariling wika at kulturang Pilipino.

Morada was a shining example of collective effort and community spirit. The initiative brought together individuals from various sectors, all united by a shared goal of improving the school environment for the benefit of its learners. The Philippine Army played a vital role in this endeavor, providing manpower support that greatly enhanced the efficiency of the activities.

Barangay officials, on the other hand, contributed their leadership and resources, demonstrating their commitment to the welfare of the school and its students. Their partnership with the school highlighted the importance of collaboration between local government and educational institutions in fostering a better learning environment.

Equally significant was the active participation of the SPTA officers, SGC officers, and SSLG officers, who worked tirelessly to coordinate efforts and ensure the success of the program. These leaders, representing parents, stakeholders, and students, exemplified the true spirit of bayanihan by bridging the gap between various groups and encouraging everyone to lend a helping hand.

It serves as a reminder that when a community comes together with a shared purpose, great things can be achieved—not just for today, but for future generations who will benefit from the fruits of this bayanihan spirit.

Ang sama-samang pagtutulungan ng mga g**o ay nagpakita ng tunay na diwa ng pagkakaisa, na nagbigay ng mas malalim na kahulugan sa selebrasyon. Sa pamamagitan ng palatuntunang ito, naipamalas hindi lamang ang kooperasyon ng mga mag-aaral kundi pati na rin ang diwa ng pagmamalaki sa pagiging Pilipino.
