On August 4, 2026, the Grade 7 Representative candidates took stage for their Miting de Avance, giving them the opportunity to share their vision, leadership, and commitment to serving our school. Each candidate gave their best performance with confidence and enthusiasm that allowed them to connect with their fellow Ateneans and inspire them through their voices and dedication.

The program featured each candidate’s campaign speeches, where they presented their visions and missions to the student body, followed by a Question and Answer that showcased their critical thinking and confidence when their is a concern, and it concluded with an Open Forum, allowing students to raise their concerns and ask meaningful questions that builds their trust with the candidates before casting their votes in the upcoming election.

“Ang hindi marunong magmahal ng sariling wika ay 𝙝𝙞𝙜𝙞𝙩 𝙥𝙖 𝙨𝙖 𝙢𝙖𝙡𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙖𝙣𝙜 𝙞𝙨𝙙𝙖” - Jose Rizal

Bakit parang mas madaling mahalin ang 𝙬𝙞𝙠𝙖 kaysa sakanya 🤔? Chares! Mula sa pagbabasa ng Noli Me Tangere o sa pagawit ng Umaasa, sabay-sabay nating ipagdiriwang ang 𝘽𝙪𝙬𝙖𝙣 𝙣𝙜 𝙒𝙞𝙠𝙖 𝙖𝙩 𝙆𝙖𝙨𝙖𝙮𝙨𝙖𝙮𝙖𝙣 🇵🇭! Huwag na nating itago, madalas ay dumudugo ang ating mga ilong at 𝙪𝙢𝙞𝙞𝙠𝙤𝙩 na ating mga mundo para lang maintindihan ang gustong ipahiwatig ng ating mga g**o sa Filipino. Madalas ay mapapa-𝙜𝙤𝙤𝙜𝙡𝙚 𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙡𝙖𝙩𝙚 o 𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙩𝙂𝙥𝙩 ka nalang para makasabay 😵‍💫!

Sa paglago ng teknolohiya, ang ating tema para sa Buwan ng Wika at Kasaysayan ay: “𝙒𝙞𝙠𝙖𝙣𝙜 𝙁𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙤 𝙖𝙩 𝘼𝙄: 𝙆𝙖𝙨𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙠𝙖𝙥𝙖𝙣 𝙨𝙖 𝙋𝙖𝙣𝙖𝙣𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙨𝙞𝙠 𝙖𝙩 𝙏𝙪𝙡𝙖𝙮 𝙨𝙖 𝙔𝙖𝙢𝙖𝙣 𝙣𝙜 𝙄𝙢𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙨𝙮𝙤𝙣" at “𝙃𝙞𝙣𝙪𝙗𝙤𝙜 𝙣𝙜 𝘽𝙖𝙮𝙖𝙣, 𝘿𝙞𝙣𝙪𝙮𝙖𝙣 𝙣𝙜 𝘼𝙡𝙤𝙣”. Gamitin natin ito bilang pangtawid impormasyon; pagyamanin natin ang ating kaalaman sa ating pagkatao bilang mga Pilipino. Mula rito, tayo’y magiging isa tulad lamang ng pagkakaisa ng bayan na dinadala ng alon 🌊.

Bawat salita at bawat kabanata ay may kuwentong ipinapahiwatig; ang ating 𝐩𝐚𝐠𝐤𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐨 bilang Pilipino. Kung gayunpaman, samahan niyo kaming isubok ang ating mga sarili sa Buwan ng Wika at sumali na ng DP blast bilang unang hakbang 😉!
