[πππππ ππ ππππ] SJC SHS Concludes Its Buwan ng Wika 2026 Celebration with Sabayang Pagbigkas Competition
As part of the celebration of Buwan ng Wika 2026 with the theme βWikang Filipino at AI: Kasangkapan sa Pananaliksik at Tulay sa Yaman ng Impormasyon,β the SJC SHS AVR was filled with enthusiasm while Grade 12 students took the stage to showcase their interpretations of βPamana ng Lahiβ by Patrocinio V. Villafuerteβduring the Sabayang Pagbigkas Competition on Wednesday morning, September 30.
The competition was organized by the Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences (HASS) Department under the guidance of its adviser, Mrs. Arestess Undayag. Hosted by Mr. Lance Isaac De Leon, the event officially opened with a prayer led by Mrs. Carmelita Joson, followed by the singing of the Philippine National Anthem of the SJC Chorale. This was followed by the opening remarks of SJC-SHS Principal, Dr. Julius Cesar De Vera.
During his opening message, Dr. De Vera emphasized that during the time where Artificial Intelligence continues to emerge and grow, individuals must remember that technology is just one part of life. The true value of technology hinges on how we can use it wisely and responsibly while upholding and empowering our Filipino culture.
Shortly after Dr. De Veraβs opening remarks, the board of judges: Mr. John Arnold Estuya, Mr. John Michael Lopez, and Mr. Jomel Limβwas introduced by Mrs. Claudia S. Delfin, SJC-SHS Principal for Academic Affairs. This was succeeded by the presentation of guidelines.
Then, each Grade 12 section took turns in displaying their understanding and conceptualization of the given piece.
Out of six sections which participated in said competition, St. Maximilian Kolbe reigned the stage and secured the championship spot. Meanwhile, St. John Paul II put an empowering display with their own renditionβsealing the second place. St. Teresa of Calcutta then presented a fiece performance, coming out as third place.
Through the studentsβ expressive delivery, creativity, and teamwork, this yearβs Sabayang Pagbigkas highlighted the importance of Filipino culture and heritageβmarking the end of SJC-SHSβ Buwan ng Wika celebration.
