🎉 Congratulations, Xander & Travis!

December is off to a winning start as two of our student-athletes shines once again in the football arena! Xander and Travis's teams proudly secured 3rd Place in the U-9 and U-11 Mixed Category at the 2nd Stallion Futsal Cup, held on December 6, 2025, at Asinan Covered Court, Olongapo City.

We are incredibly proud of you, Xander & Travis—keep kicking your dreams into goals! ⚽✨

✨🙏 A Sacred Step in Faith Journey 🙏✨

On December 4, 2025, eight of our Grade 4 learners received their First Holy Communion at St. Joseph Parish—a truly beautiful milestone they will treasure forever. The solemn celebration was officiated by Rev. Fr. Roque Villanueva.

Our heartfelt gratitude goes to Teacher Grace, Lambs of Jesus Coordinator, and Ma’am Lanie Onato, our Christian Living Coordinator from St. Joseph, for their dedication in preparing the children for this sacred sacrament. 💒

Special thanks as well to Ate Analyn for her assistance, and to our ever-supportive parents whose love and cooperation made this meaningful event possible.

The students were also filled with joy when each of them received a thoughtful gift from T. Minnie, making this day even more special.

Congratulations to our young communicants as they continue to grow in faith, love, and spirit! 🌟

⚠️ Shaking Today, Safer Tomorrow! ⚠️

On December 4, 2025, at 9:30 AM, Owlistas successfully conducted another Earthquake Drill to strengthen our school’s preparedness and safety awareness.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to the BFP (Bureau of Fire Protection), OTMPS (Office of Traffic Management and Public Safety), DRRMO (Disaster Risk Reduction & Management Office - Olongapo City) and the West Bajac-Bajac Barangay Risk and Disaster Response Unit (BRADRU) for guiding our learners and staff through proper safety protocols and emergency procedures.

We are also grateful to Mr. Mamerto O. Estrellado, a retired Safety Manager and a consistent supporter of our school’s safety initiatives, for joining and supporting this important activity. With regular practice, we can minimize panic and respond wisely should a real earthquake occur.

After the drill, the whole team held a feedback and evaluation meeting with T. Wenine, Sir Dave and the Learning Circle staff to further improve our preparedness plans and future drills.

🛑 Be Ready. Be Safe. Be Resilient. 💪

On November 26, 2025, our teachers and staff successfully completed the Earthquake Awareness and Preparedness Training conducted by Engr. Allan B. Cuya, Occupational Safety and Health Consultant, together with Mamerto O. Estrellado and Eddu A. Calubad, both Occupational Safety and Health Practitioners.

The training was incredibly helpful in strengthening our emergency response, especially during earthquakes. It was a very hands-on session where Engr. Allan demonstrated the proper use of the spine board and taught us the correct posture during an earthquake that safety trainers now call the "tripod posture position" to protect ourselves during an earthquake. He also shared practical tips on recognizing early signs of an earthquake, such as placing a hanging object in the classroom to easily detect ground movement.

We are grateful for this valuable learning opportunity that enhances the safety and preparedness of our school community. Thank you to our dedicated trainers for guiding us!
