Angelicum School Iloilo joined Catholic schools from across Western Visayas in a two-day Catholic Educational Association of the Philippines (CEAP) Region VI Regional Assembly, held August 24โ€“25 at Ateneo de Iloilo- Santa Maria Catholic School.

Carrying the theme โ€œRe-imagining Pathways of Hope for Catholic Education in Region VI,โ€ the assembly gathered 720 students and facilitators from 51 schools across the region to foster faith, dialogue, and a shared commitment to Catholic education.

Participants engaged in discussions including โ€œNewness in Catholic Education: Illuminating Pathways of Hope,โ€ which reminded everyone to proclaim the Good News in all that they do.

In another session โ€œBeyond the Screens: Understanding the Hearts and Minds of Todayโ€™s Learnersโ€ participants also explored the role of gadgets and technology in the lives of young people.

Adding to the assemblyโ€™s emphasis on youth participation, Mr. Orlando Gamilla Jr., LPT, assistant principal of Angelicum School Iloilo, conducted a Youth Representativesโ€™ Orientation, where he reminded participants that young people are not just the future but partners for change today, emphasizing that their voices matter in shaping their communities.

Furthermore, a Eucharistic celebration presided over by Rev. Fr. Paul Lovell Javier, OP, parish priest of Santo Domingo Parish and former principal of Angelicum School Iloilo, highlighted the gatheringโ€™s second day.

A milestone for Catholic education in the region also unfolded as the assembly witnessed the election of the first CEAP Region VI officers. Among those elected was Angelican student leader Cheyenne Yvanne Gajitos, who was chosen as the CEAP Region VI representative of the Archdiocese of Jaro.

Moreover, the assembly also featured a โ€œDiscernment Workshop and Synthesisโ€ organized by Angelicum facilitators, giving learners the chance to understand, reflect, and discern together as one community.

Through its discussions, activities, and moments of discernment, the two-day assembly brought together young people in strengthening their commitment to Catholic education.

More than a gathering of schools, the event became an opportunity for Angelicans and fellow Catholic learners to recognize their role in building a future grounded in faith, hope, and service.

On Aug. 25, 1937, Iloilo officially became a chartered city, marking an important milestone in its history. Since then, Iloilo has continued to grow and transform in many ways. Newly built schools, buildings, roads, and public spaces have helped make the city more modern and accessible.

However, Iloilo is special not only because of its development. Its rich culture, festivals, history, and food are among the things that make Ilonggos proud of their heritage. These traditions and stories remain important to the community as they preserve memories of the past and strengthen the cityโ€™s identity across generations.

The future of Iloilo City rests in the hands of young Ilonggos. As students, we may not yet have the power to make major changes, but we can contribute in meaningful ways. We can learn about our history, respect our traditions, and support our community. As we grow older, we can use what we have learned to help shape a more responsible, progressive, and sustainable future for our city.

Iloiloโ€™s story goes beyond its 89 years of history. It lives on through its people, who preserve its traditions while bringing new ideas that help shape the communityโ€™s future. That is what makes Iloilo City worth celebratingโ€”not only because of its remarkable past, but also because of the promising future that its people continue to build with pride, love, and hope.

Imagine youโ€™re just an ordinary kid at school, eating lunch alone and walking to class quietly. Everything feels normal until one day, a classmate smiles at you, says hello, and asks if they can sit with you. And just like that, you have formed a friendship.

But friendship isnโ€™t really about getting someone to sit with you; itโ€™s something much bigger than that. Itโ€™s about creating new memories as you grow olderโ€”from kindergarten to elementary, high school, and even senior high. No matter what grade youโ€™re in or how old you get, the concept of friendship stays the same. At first, I was very shy when I started talking to people, but later on, each year made me happier because of my new friends and the connections I made.

When someone feels sad, a friend should be there to comfort them. If it gets hard to get along with others, at least remembering happy moments with your friends can make everything feel better. Even if problems donโ€™t go away, you can find good solutions together with friends who care about each other again and again, until things feel right.

And thatโ€™s why friendship helps people so much. It starts simply: make friends and have fun together. But as you grow older, friendships become deeper. Though some problems never disappear, we can always come back stronger as long as we stay connected through love and kindness within our circle of true friends.

At the end of the day, friendship isnโ€™t only an action; it becomes a memory for a lifetime.

A significant milestone of faith unfolded on Aug. 9, 2026, as the young communicants of YS4 Blessed Imelda took an important step in their spiritual journey as they received the Holy Eucharist for the first time at the Chapel of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary of Manaoag, Angelicum School Iloilo.

Surrounded by their parents, loved ones, and the school community, the young communicants marked this significant milestone in faith with reverence and joy. The sacred occasion brought the community together in celebrating their first reception of the Body and Blood of Christ and supporting them as they continue their journey of faith.

With this sacred milestone, the young communicants begin a new chapter in their spiritual journey, carrying with them the faith, love, and guidance of the community that stands beside them.

Bawat gawain ay bunga ng sipag, talento, at sama-samang pagsisikap. Sa Awarding Ceremony, kinilala ang mga Angelican na nagpakita ng husay at dedikasyon sa ibaโ€™t ibang paligsahan ng pagdiriwang. Higit sa mga tropeo at parangal, ipinagdiriwang natin ang bawat pagsubok na hinarap, bawat talento na ibinahagi, at bawat ambag na nagbigay-sigla sa isang makulay at makabuluhang pista ng komunidad.

Mula sa โ€œSining ng Pagkainโ€ ng Nurseryโ€“YS1 hanggang sa โ€œSama-samang Mosaiko,โ€ โ€œCut and Paste,โ€ at โ€œMakukulay na Kagatโ€ ng YS2โ€“YS4, naging makulay na canvas ang bawat gawain para sa pagkamalikhain at pagpapahalaga sa wastong nutrisyon. Samantala, sa โ€œInihaw na Biyaya,โ€ naging tampok ang saya ng pagsasalo at pagpapahalaga sa pagkaing bahagi ng kulturang Pilipino.

Sa pamamagitan ng sining, pagkain, at sama-samang paglikha, ipinakita ng mga Angelican na ang nutrisyon ay hindi lamang tungkol sa pagkain nang tama, kundi isang pagkakataon ding magpahayag, magbahagi, at ipagdiwang ang kultura at komunidad.

Mula sa simpleng ideya hanggang sa makulay na disenyo, binigyang-buhay ng mga Angelican ang diwa ng pista sa pamamagitan ng Booth Making. Sa sama-samang pagpaplano, pagdidisenyo, at paglikha, ipinamalas ng bawat pangkat ang kanilang pagkamalikhain at pagtutulungan. Higit pa sa isang palamuti, naging salamin ang bawat booth ng kultura, nutrisyon, at pagkakaisa ng komunidad.

Sa pamamagitan ng sining at salita, naging mas malinaw at makulay ang panawagan para sa kalusugan.
