Today, we commemorate the 315th Death Anniversary of Venerable Mother Francisca del Espiritu Santo de Fuentes, whose life remains a shining example of faith, compassion, and service.

In honor of her enduring legacy, we also launch Crumbs of the Poor, a meaningful initiative inspired by Mother Francisca’s devotion to caring for the Sick, Poor, and Young (SPY). Through this program, we continue her mission of sharing God’s love through acts of kindness, generosity, and concern for those most in need.

This afternoon, the school community, together with the Lay Mission Associates of Mother Francisca Espiritu Santo (LMAMFES), gathered in a Holy Hour in remembrance of the death anniversary of the Servant of God, Mother Francisca del Espiritu Santo de Fuentes. United in prayer and reflection, we honored her life of faith and her commitment to serving others.

May her example inspire us to become instruments of hope and compassion in our communities, one small act of charity at a time.

Today was a beautiful reminder that talent is a gift best shared with others. Through Bea Ward’s moving performance of "The Movie in My Mind" from Miss Saigon and Franceszqua Ward’s graceful ballet presentation, our pupils and students witnessed how passion, dedication, and hard work can shine on stage. The opportunity to ask questions and learn from the performers made the experience even more meaningful, inspiring young hearts to dream big and embrace their own talents.

Our heartfelt thanks to Bea and Franceszqua for sharing not only their talents but also their time, experiences, and passion with our school community. Your visit left a lasting inspiration in the hearts of our learners.

On the Feast of St. Dominic de Guzman, the school personnel celebrated the life and mission of the founder of the Order of Preachers through prayer, fellowship, and service.

The day began with a heartfelt harana for the Dominican Sisters, honoring their dedication to the Dominican charism and mission. Inspired by St. Dominic’s example of compassion and evangelization, the personnel also visited the Koronadal City District Jail for an Outreach Program with the Persons Deprived of Liberty (PDLs), sharing hope, encouragement, and the love of Christ with those entrusted to their care.

The celebration continued with fellowship over lunch and games that reflected on the life, virtues, and legacy of St. Dominic de Guzman. Through these activities, the personnel were reminded that the Dominican vocation is lived through prayer, the pursuit of Truth, and service to others.

May the witness of St. Dominic continue to inspire hearts to preach the Gospel through both word and action.

Today, we gathered as one Dominican family to celebrate the Anticipated Mass for the Feast of St. Dominic de Guzman, giving thanks to God for the life of a saint whose steadfast faith, deep prayer, and love for the Truth continue to inspire the Church.

As the founder of the Order of Preachers, St. Dominic dedicated his life to proclaiming the Gospel with humility, wisdom, and compassion, reminding us that the most powerful witness to Christ is a life rooted in prayer, study, and faithful service to others.

As we celebrated the Holy Eucharist, we were inspired to follow St. Dominic's example by seeking the Truth, living the Gospel with courage, and becoming instruments of God's love and mercy in our daily lives.

May his enduring legacy continue to strengthen our commitment to holiness and encourage us to serve with joy, integrity, and compassion wherever God calls us.

St. Dominic de Guzman, pray for us.

Preparedness begins with knowledge, and safety begins with practice.

Earlier today, our school successfully conducted a School-Wide Fire Drill in partnership with the City of Koronadal Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP).

The activity began with an informative discussion on fire safety, where BFP personnel explained the proper use of fire extinguishers. Through live demonstrations, selected school personnel, pupils, and students were given the opportunity to practice operating fire extinguishers correctly under the guidance of trained firefighters.

This meaningful collaboration strengthened our school community's preparedness and awareness in responding to fire emergencies. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the City of Koronadal BFP for sharing their expertise and helping equip our learners and personnel with essential life-saving skills.

𝗦𝗬𝗡𝗘𝗥𝗚𝗬 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲: 𝗖𝗹𝘂𝗯 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴

Setting the tone for a day of growth and collaboration, SYNERGY 2026 commenced with engaging parallel sessions that inspired our pupil and student leaders to lead with purpose and excellence.

The Three Major Club Officers attended "Building Your Club's Documentation System," facilitated by Mr. Lordjan Kenneth L. Pandoy, while the Classroom Officers and Remaining Club Officers joined "Leadership in Action: Serving Beyond the Position," led by Mr. Rustom, Jr. M. Evangelista. Both sessions emphasized that effective leadership is built on competence, responsibility, and a genuine commitment to serving others.

The lessons extended beyond the discussions through a series of physical activities that encouraged collaboration and active participation. Each challenge strengthened teamwork, communication, trust, and problem-solving while allowing participants to experience the value of working toward a common goal.

More than a training program, SYNERGY 2026 served as a meaningful formation experience for every student leader. It reminded them that leadership is not measured by authority or position but by the ability to inspire, uplift, and serve the community with integrity. As they return to their classrooms and organizations, may they continue to embody the spirit of Siena by leading with character and serving with purpose.

Congratulations, classroom and club leaders!
