The Grade 6 graduating learners of Mines Elementary School held their Baccalaureate Mass and School Recollection at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Parish, Project 6. 🙏

The Baccalaureate Mass, presided over by Rev. Fr. Ron Macale, Parish Priest, was a thanksgiving celebration for all the blessings and guidance the graduates received throughout their journey. The mass ended with a special blessing for the graduates, their families, and teachers as they prepare for the next chapter of their education.

The recollection gave the learners time for prayer and reflection as they look back on their experiences, friendships, and lessons learned during their years in elementary school.

This meaningful activity was guided by our Grade 6 teachers and supported by our School Principal, Dr. Victoria M. Dela Cruz, who continues to encourage programs that nurture both the spiritual and personal growth of our learners.

Congratulations to our graduating learners as they move forward with faith, gratitude, and hope. ✨
