𝐋𝐎𝐎𝐊 | Free Cold and Potable Water

Promoting student health, well-being, and sustainability, Corazon C. Aquino High School's partnership with Tarlac State University - Department of Civil Engineering (TSUCDE) provided a drinking fountain and a dispenser for the students on June 13.

During the on-site visit, TSU's Civil Engineering Department Chairperson, Engr. Neil Andrew I. Meneses briefed Head Teacher, Sir Louie Salmasan and Science Teacher, Sir Jeri Cuaresma on how the fountain's water filtration system works, its functions and its maintenance.

Water from the fountain shall undergo two potability testing (which assesses whether water is safe for human consumption) by DOH-accredited laboratories to ensure safety.

Once the results declare the water safe to drink, students can then enjoy free, cold, and sustainable water.

This day marks the 127th celebration of our freedom from the Spanish Colonial Rule for more than three centuries.

The 12th of June is much deeper than the day our country gained independence. It is a frozen monument in time showcasing the collective blood and sweat shed by our countrymen that led us to break free from our oppressors’ rule, which had denied us freedom and identity for centuries.

As we look back on this remarkable day, may we keep in mind that the struggle for independence is one that is unending. With ongoing threats to our national territory and sovereignty, a Filipino heart must be forged with a burning passion to protect our country’s autonomy and its people’s interests.

As we commemorate the Philippine Independence Day, let us take a refresher on how our liberty was achieved—when, where, and why it came about.

Today, democracy once again presents its best gift upon its people— A free and equal election. As you walk through your designated precinct and cast your votes, remember that you will fill a ballot that will determine the fate of our nation. Bear in mind that we ought to choose our leaders depending on their ability to fill the holes of our country and the desire to fight for the interests of every Filipino.

For a nation slowly rotting to corruption and a government transitioning to a blood-based tug of war, our votes has the power to spark change and put the right people to their corresponding seats. Remember that we are voting not neccessarily for the sake of one candidate or one party’s triumph, but for our country and its people’s victory.

Our future leaders are now sat in front of us, each with their own case and our collective voices will be the judge of who serves us.

To the lights of our homes, may this day serve as a reminder to you of all the sacrifices you have made throughout your whole motherhood. We, the children you have nurtured, would not be able to be who we are today if not for your caring soul and warm embrace. May this day be an opportunity for us to show our deepest appreciation to you, whether by gifts, flowers, or a simple “Salamat po mama, mahal po kita”.

Thank you, nanay, for doing the repetitive household chores and for tirelessly taking care of us despite being tired yourself.
Thank you, mom, for helping us pursue our dreams and for being supportive of our choices.
Thank you, mama, for helping us see the rights and wrongs in this world and for guiding us in shaping our values.

Lastly, thank you for being the perfect mother to us.

When reality fogs and the truth is hidden—words of ink on rusty pages illuminate that which is unseen by the naked eye. Mere strokes heed the voices of those silenced, and release those who are shackled to a standstill.

For we journalists hold our pens, cameras, and papers to tell a tale of honesty—one that educates the unaware, impedes the corrupt, and deters those whose fists are clenched in violence. For the headlines are not for fame nor recognition—it is to protect and serve the people.

This day, we highlight the heroes whose work and names were censored by those who silenced bravery for the sake of power. This is not only intimidation, but the abuse of truth and manipulation of the people for authority. This day, remember to harbor our hearts with truth and courage to fight against a world that frightens journalists with control and fear. Let us keep striving to protect those that voice the voiceless.
