Practice makes progress.

In response to the recent earthquakes felt across the country, EQHS conducted an earthquake drill on October 15 to ensure the readiness and safety of students and staff during emergency situations.

The activity aimed to test the preparedness of the school community and reinforce safety measures in case of a real earthquake. Teachers, school personnel, and students actively participated in the simulation, following the “𝑫𝒖𝒄𝒌, 𝑪𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒓, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑯𝒐𝒍𝒅” procedure before proceeding to their designated evacuation areas.

However, despite the successful conduct of the drill, some issues were observed. Evacuation was slower than expected, and many students were noisy as they moved to safety zones. Additionally, some students were blowing whistles, causing confusion and disrupting communication among marshals.

School officials reminded everyone that drills are serious safety exercises and not mere routines. The EQHS Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (DRRM), headed by 𝐌𝐫. 𝐑𝐨𝐧𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐨 , emphasized the importance of discipline, focus, and cooperation to ensure that future drills and real emergencies can be handled swiftly and safely.

EQHS brought energy and teamwork to life through a Pickleball Session and Workshop held on October 11, organized by the 𝐌𝐀𝐏𝐄𝐇 𝐃𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 as part of their Learning Action Cell (LAC) session.

Originally designed for MAPEH teachers, the activity, upon the suggestion of 𝐌𝐫. 𝐑𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐨 𝐓. 𝐍𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐚 𝐉𝐫, was opened to all teaching and non-teaching staff, promoting camaraderie, physical fitness, and recreation among the Quirinian community.

The workshop was facilitated by coaches from the University of Santo Tomas (UST), led by Coach Ted, who introduced the basics of pickleball and guided participants through fun drills and friendly matches.

𝐏𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐚𝐥𝐥, a fast-growing sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis, is played with a paddle and a perforated plastic ball on a smaller court. It is known for being easy to learn, engaging for all ages, and great for promoting fitness and teamwork.

The event not only introduced EQHS staff to this exciting sport but also provided an opportunity to unwind, connect, and embrace the spirit of wellness and unity that the school continues to uphold.

Elevated Quirinians !

In partnership with the EQHS Values Education Department and the Guidance & Counselling Center, UBelt prepared a series of fun and interactive games for students as part of the preparation for the upcoming Program for Quirinians.

The NotAlone Program aims to address some of the most pressing challenges faced by today’s youth—such as depression, su***de, bullying, addiction, and abuse. It also seeks to equip and empower young people to become future leaders and positive influencers in their families, schools, and communities.

Implemented by Elevate UBelt volunteers, the program is guided by the vision of inspiring students to live out the 5 M’s(Masipag, Magalang, Matulungin, Mapagmahal,and Maka-Diyos.)

, a youth organization dedicated to leadership and character development, continues to reach out to schools nationwide to encourage students to live with purpose, hope, and faith.

Mr. Romeo T. Navoa Jr. expresses his full support to such activities that benefit quirinian students.

Did you miss out on the fun? Don’t worry — they’ll be back for you tomorrow!
