Although more than a century has passed, we still honor José Rizal for his courage and lasting contributions to our nation.

Our national hero reminds us that love for the country is more than sacrifice; it also requires the courage to speak the truth and stand up for what is right. Through his words and actions, he showed how ideas can awaken people and combat injustice. His legacy continues to influence the values and principles that shape Filipino society today.

December 25, 2025 marks the remembrance of the birth of Jesus Christ, a story that continues to hold meaning beyond tradition. Rooted in humility and love, it reminds us that faith is often expressed through quiet compassion and simple acts of care.

Amid familiar celebrations and routines, Christmas offers a moment to slow down and reconnect with what feels sincere and grounding. It is a time to reflect on how we give, how we listen, and how we choose to treat one another, not only during the season but in the days that follow.

May this time be spent in ways that feel meaningful, whether through rest, shared moments, or small gestures of kindness that carry forward.

SciWings wishes everyone a meaningful and heartfelt Christmas. 🪽

The spirit of camaraderie culminated within the PSHS-DRC Gymnasium as students, parents, staff, and members of the Barangay Sto. Nino Council for Women completed the Anti-VAW Fun Run held on the morning of December 13, 2025.

The 2.51-kilometer route, which looped throughout the barangay, starting from Gate 3 of the campus, featured many runners accompanied by their families, friends, and colleagues, who were guided by personnel from the barangay.

As more participants reached the finish line, the gym was filled with food stations for the community breakfast, featuring delights such as malunggay pandesal and taho.

After the community had settled down, Dr. Jonald P. Fenecios, the Campus Director of Pisay-DRC, stated that the activity's motive was not only for the run itself, but also for the shared purpose that united the school and the nearby community.

Following this, the Zumba Dance Challenge took over the gym's dance floor, with members from various batches and units encapsulating their creativity under the theme, "Bangon Babae, Sayaw ng Pagbangon," where batch '28, batch '30, and the barangay's Council for Women took the podiums, respectively.

Moreover, a barangay leader also mentioned that the cause behind the campaign-driven fun run was to fund the dource of income for the women of the barangay.

"Ang kaning tanan, ang cause ani, ay pagtabang sa livelihood sa kababaihan," emphasized Hon. Purificacion "Pinky" Tolentino, the barangay's Gender and Development (GAD) Focal Person, as she expounded on the vital role of the event to provide more opportunities for the unfortunate women in the area.

In total, 30 sacks of rice and an amount of 30 thousand pesos in cash for additional livelihood were turned over to the sector.

Sto. Nino's Punong Barangay, Hon. Romeo F. Alberca, then stated that the partnership between the two bodies was fortified with the run done earlier.

The project not only showcased the spirit of assistance and a steadfast commitment to ending all forms of violence against women, but also fostered fellowship that extended beyond campus boundaries.

𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗯𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗠𝗮𝘆 𝗣𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗴𝗮𝗻: 𝗣𝗶𝘀𝗮𝘆-𝗗𝗮𝘃𝗮𝗼, 𝗕𝗿𝗴𝘆. 𝗦𝘁𝗼. 𝗡𝗶ñ𝗼, 𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗸𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗮 𝘀𝗮 𝗸𝗮𝘂𝗻𝗮-𝘂𝗻𝗮𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝘂𝗻 𝗿𝘂𝗻 𝗸𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮 𝗩𝗔𝗪𝗖

Sa pagsikat ng araw, kasabay ng malamig na simoy ng hangin at masiglang tugtugin, unti-unting napuno ng ngiti at sigla ang kalsada. Bawat tapak ay iisa ang tibok ng puso ng mga mananakbo, ang magkaisa para sa adhikain ng pagpapahalaga at pagpapalakas ng bawat isa.

Bilang pagtatapos ng 18 Day Violence Against Women Campaign, isinagawa ng komunidad ang isang fun run for a cause na nilahukan ng iba’t ibang opisyal ng Brgy. Sto. Niño at PSHS-DRC kabilang ang mga magulang, g**o at mag-aaral. Nagsilbing simbolo ang aktibidad na ito ng pagkakaisa at sama-samang pagkilos para sa isang makabuluhang layunin.

Ibinahagi ni Dr. Jonald P. Fenecios, campus director ng PSHS-DRC ang kagalakan dahil ginugol ng marami ang kanilang oras para rito.

"Today, we gather not only for the fun run but for a meaningful cause that ignite us with a shared purpose", sambit nito.

Dagdag pa niya, ang pagtitipong ito ay hindi lang tungkol sa pagtakbo kundi ang pagtitipon ng marami ukol sa iisang adhikain.

Matapos ang takbuhan, sabay-sabay na nagsalo ang mga kalahok sa isang community breakfast at masayang nakiindak sa zumba dance challenge na inihanda ng GAD Committee. Isinagawa rin ang programa ng turn over ng tagumpay ng proyekto sa mga benepisyaryo, na dinaluhan ng mga opisyal ng barangay sa pangunguna ni G. Romeo Alberca, punong-barangay ng Sto. Niño at ilang mga kagawad.

Sa pagtatapos ng programa, bitbit ng bawat mananakbo ang inspirasyon at saya na hatid ng pagtitipon. Higit sa lahat, dala nila ang pakiramdam na sila ay naging bahagi ng isang mas malaking misyon.

Kaya sa susunod na pagsikat ng araw, nawa’y manatiling buhay ang pag asa sa kanilang mga puso at maalala ang dahilan kung bakit nila sinusuot ang kanilang mga sapatos, ang tumakbo tungo sa hangarin ng kapayapaan at pagkakaisa.

On December 12, 2025, the PSHS–DRC community gathered in the quadrangle for the fourth campus-wide wellness session, coming together to uplift and support one another. The event served as a meaningful culmination of the Violence Against Women (VAW) Campaign, marking its final day with a collective display of empowerment.

Students, teachers, and faculty actively participated in a variety of activities designed to promote wellness and connection. These included a calming group yoga session led by Sir Jonathan Mancao, a lively and competitively charged doodling game, and Buwak.dvo’s limited bouquet pop-up, which featured a creative DIY twist.

While this event marked the end of this year’s 18-day VAW campaign, its message endures beyond the day, and the call to end violence against women must remain embedded in our daily lives. Violence against women is not solely a women’s issue, it is a human rights issue. In standing together, the community demonstrated that there is no stronger force than solidarity.

Scholars came together and rejuvenated themselves with refreshing ice cream during Ice Cream Day this December 4, 2025 at 11:40 AM in front of the PSHS-DRC library.

This initiative has been put in place by the PSHS-DRC Student Government (SG) to recognize fellow students in their efforts for the examinations that took place from December 2-4.

King Christopherson Sabas, a student from Batch 2030 who also took part in the delightful treat, emphasized the rewarding nature of Ice Cream Day.

"I am very happy because you get to eat ice cream after exams. Also, it [ice-cream] was delicious," added Sabas.

On the other hand, the SG Secretary, Fidel Nazarene Calit, expressed his thought about Ice Cream Day also being a catalyst for camaraderie.

"Ice cream day is a great event to unite Pisay scholars, as it allows them to be mixed with other batches in a single line, prompting conversations," revealed Calit.

Ice Cream Day not only provided a delightful break for students during their stressful year-end exams but also fostered a sense of community and appreciation within the school.
