With roaring cheers and vibrant colors, Saint Anne Academy officially opened the SAA Palaro Sports Festival 2025 on October 16, rallying Anneans under the theme โ€œOne Heart, One Goal, One Victory: Anneans United in the Spirit of Sportsmanship.โ€ The annual event marked a spirited celebration of athleticism, teamwork, and the enduring Annean pride.

The campus pulsed with energy as the four competing teamsโ€”Red Stallions, Green Tamaraws, Blue Eagles, and Yellow Bulldogsโ€”filled the venue with booming chants and dazzling banners, setting the stage for a week of competition fueled by unity and determination.

The program commenced with a solemn prayer and the singing of the Philippine National Anthem. In his opening message, Mr. Jansen Jacinto, School Registrar, reminded the athletes that victory is best achieved through discipline, teamwork, and respect for the game.

Excitement soared during the presentation of muses and escorts, where each team showcased elegance and creativity. The crowdโ€™s energy intensified in the cheers and yells competition, where students proudly echoed their team spirit. The symbolic Torch Relay, led by R1AA athletes Jarred Jacinto and Wintz Quezada, illuminated the gym with enthusiasm and hope. This was followed by the Hoisting of Banners, where the Red Stallions claimed the first triumph of the day.

Further electrifying the event, team leaders delivered their Fearless Forecasts, confidently declaring their drive to claim the championship crown. The Presentation of Athletic Contingents then brought all players together, a visual representation of unity in diversity. Wintz Quezada led the Oath of Amateurism, affirming honesty and fairness in every game, while Mr. Jade Jacinto, Academic Supervisor, led the Oath of Coaches and Officials, underscoring the values of integrity and professionalism in officiating.

Amid cheers and applause, Principal Marcel Baquing officially declared the Intramurals 2025 open, marking the beginning of a week dedicated to sportsmanship and school spirit. As the declaration echoed across the gym, athletes took their positions, eager to turn every serve, sprint, and shot into a testament of passion and perseverance.

More than a competition, the SAA Palaro Sports Festival 2025 stands as a symbol of what it means to be an Annean โ€” united in heart, driven by excellence, and bound by the spirit of sportsmanship that continues to inspire the entire Saint Anne Academy community.

Not all heroes wear capes. Some wear ID laces, carry lesson plans, and walk into classrooms with tired smiles that still manage to shine. They do not fight on battlefields but in rooms filled with restless minds and dreams waiting to be believed in. They do not hold swords, but patience, compassion, and faith that one act of kindness can change a life. Their victories may not always be loud, but their impact is forever engraved in the hearts they have touched.

Have you ever noticed who stays behind after the last bell rings? When the noise fades and the seats are empty, someone remains. They are there fixing papers, planning lessons, or simply sitting in silence, thinking of how to reach the next struggling student. They are our teachers, the quiet heroes who choose to stay when others have gone home. They are the ones who listen when no one else does, who see potential when others see trouble, and who believe in every learner even when the world forgets to.

Every October, the world pauses to celebrate them. Yet a single day will never be enough to repay a lifetime of patience, love, and sacrifice. Long before we learned to stand on our own, it was a teacher who taught us how. Long before we knew what success meant, it was a teacher who helped us dream of it. And long after we have left their classrooms, their lessons still guide us. Their words echo softly in moments when we feel lost, reminding us to keep going, to keep believing, and to keep learning.

๐‘จ๐’ˆ๐’š๐’‚๐’Ž๐’‚๐’ ๐’Œ๐’‚๐’Ž๐’Š, ๐‘ด๐’‚๐’†๐’”๐’•๐’“๐’‚ ๐’Œ๐’†๐’ ๐‘ด๐’‚๐’†๐’”๐’•๐’“๐’. Thank you. These words are simple, but they carry years of unspoken gratitude. They speak for every student who found courage in a teacherโ€™s encouragement, for every dream that began with a teacherโ€™s faith, and for every life changed by someone who never gave up. They speak of compassion that never runs out and of love that never demands to be noticed.

Teachers are not just educators. They are the gentle architects of who we become. Behind every achiever stands a teacher. Behind every success story is someone who spent nights preparing lessons, worrying, and hoping that their students would someday understand not just the lesson, but the reason to keep trying. In every smile they give lies a quiet promise that no learner will ever be left behind. They build bridges between fear and courage, between doubt and hope, between failure and strength.

Yet behind their strength lies sacrifice that often goes unseen. They give more than they should, their time, their energy, even their rest, so that their students can have a better future. They face crowded classrooms, endless papers, and expectations that never seem to end, yet they still find a reason to care. They carry invisible weights, the heartbreak of a child who stops coming to school, the worry over a learner who feels unseen, and the hope that somehow their efforts will matter. Still, they show up every day with the same kindness, the same patience, and the same unwavering belief that one lesson can change a life.

That is what makes them extraordinary. Their heroism is quiet but powerful. They do not seek recognition or applause, because their joy is found in the small victories. The spark in a studentโ€™s eyes, the improvement in a test score, the simple thank you whispered in passing. They give, not to be remembered, but to make others remember their worth.

To every teacher who has chosen empathy over frustration, understanding over anger, and love over exhaustion, thank you. You have turned classrooms into places of hope. You have given students more than lessons. You have given them courage. Because of you, generations will continue to dream, to learn, and to rise above whatever stands in their way.

Teaching is not a profession. It is a calling, a promise written not in ink but in love. Every word you speak, every lesson you give, and every moment you choose to care leaves a mark that time cannot erase. Students may forget the lessons, the dates, or the formulas, but they will never forget how you made them feel, capable, valued, and loved. You are the heart of education, the light that guides every learner toward hope, and the quiet strength that never fades.

Even as the world changes, when technology replaces blackboards, when challenges grow harder, and when appreciation fades, you remain. You still show up. You still care. You still teach with the same compassion that has shaped countless lives. You never asked to be remembered, yet you will always be. Your legacy is not written in books or records, but in the lives you have touched and the hearts you have healed.

So today, and every day that follows, we say with full hearts, ๐‘จ๐’ˆ๐’š๐’‚๐’Ž๐’‚๐’ ๐’Œ๐’‚๐’Ž๐’Š, ๐‘ด๐’‚๐’†๐’”๐’•๐’“๐’‚ ๐’Œ๐’†๐’ ๐‘ด๐’‚๐’†๐’”๐’•๐’“๐’. Thank you for the patience that never runs out, the love that never asks for return, and the hope that never fades. You are more than mentors. You are the foundation of every dream, the guide to every success, and the quiet force that keeps the world learning.

Indeed, not all heroes wear capes. Some hold dreams. Some hold hearts. And all of them are forever inked in ours, written in time.

With notebooks in hand and passion in their hearts, the faculty and staff of Saint Anne Academy embraced three days of growth during the In-Service Training (INSET) held from August 28 to 30, 2025.

Spearheaded by the Private Education Assistance Committee (PEAC), the training provided valuable insights on Curriculum Alignment, Instructional Design, Adaptive Teaching Guides, and Competency-Based Strategies. Beyond the strategies, however, the INSET highlighted a deeper truth: that teachers are also lifelong learners, continuously adapting and strengthening their craft to prepare todayโ€™s students for the ever-changing future that awaits them. | ๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ข ๐˜ก๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜บ๐˜ฌ๐˜ข ๐˜๐˜ช๐˜จ๐˜ถ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ข

In a town pushed against the mountainside, where the wind carries the scent of rice fields and the quiet resilience of its people, a boy was born whose heart would come to sing the soul of his community. Piddig, Ilocos Norte, witnessed the birth of Don Claro Caluya on June 22, 1868. From the beginning, he listened to the rhythm of life, noticing poetry in the simplest gestures and music in the sigh of the earth. He felt deeply the joys, the struggles, and the hopes of those around him, and he learned to transform these moments into creations that would echo for generations.

Though he would serve as gobernadorcillo and municipal president, Caluyaโ€™s lasting legacy rests in his poems, plays, and songs that reflect the essence of Ilocano life. His poems, including ๐˜’๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ ๐˜‰๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜จ, ๐˜—๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ข๐˜จ๐˜ฑ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ฏ๐˜ข๐˜ฌ๐˜ข๐˜ฅ๐˜ข, and ๐˜“๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ถ๐˜ข๐˜ค ๐˜ต๐˜ช ๐˜‹๐˜ช ๐˜ˆ๐˜จ๐˜ด๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ฅ๐˜ข๐˜บ, capture laughter, sorrow, and hope with equal depth. His sarsuelas, such as ๐˜ˆ๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ข and ๐˜“๐˜ข ๐˜ˆ๐˜ท๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ข, portray the everyday triumphs and challenges of ordinary people, reminding audiences that culture is inseparable from the heart of the community and that stories can carry memory, emotion, and identity.

It is his music, however, that resonates most powerfully. The famous classic ๐˜‰๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฏ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ is not merely a melody but a living legacy of love, devotion, and resilience. Its lyrics carry the heartbeat of Ilocos Norte, the pride of Piddig, and the soul of a people who have learned to endure and celebrate life through song. His Ilocano translation of Josรฉ Rizalโ€™s ๐˜œ๐˜ญ๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฎ๐˜ฐ ๐˜ˆ๐˜ฅ๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ด transformed the national heroโ€™s farewell into a lyrical embrace, blending local identity with national pride. Through these works, Caluya became more than a poet and composer; he became a guardian of culture, a voice for Piddig and the Ilocano people.

The mountains and valleys of Piddig shaped him as much as he shaped them. The town, pushed against the mountainside yet unbowed by lifeโ€™s challenges, instilled in him patience, creativity, and a deep understanding of resilience. Caluya transformed this landscape into art, capturing its spirit and embedding it into the hearts of future generations. His creations became a bridge connecting past and present, local identity and universal meaning, ordinary life and timeless legacy.

When he passed on December 14, 1914, Piddig lost more than a son. It lost a voice that reflected its dreams, a light that illuminated its identity, and a heart that carried its peopleโ€™s essence. Yet his legacy continues to resonate through classrooms, stages, and homes. Don Claro Caluya did not simply create; he immortalized the heartbeat of Piddig, leaving a reminder that art, culture, and love for community can endure far beyond a lifetime.

And today, on National Heroes Day, over a century later, the mountains of Piddig still echo his songs, whisper his poems, and carry the defiant truth that one boy from a town pushed against the mountainside could teach the world to feel, to love, and to remember forever.

Each week, different grade levels participate in the liturgy, offering their time, prayers, and presence as part of their ongoing journey of faith. The celebration becomes a space where students are not only formed academically but also spiritually, guided by the values of service and devotion.

More than a routine gathering, the Sunday Community Mass serves as a reminder that faith is the foundation of character, and that true education flourishes when nurtured in both heart and mind. | ๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ข ๐˜ก๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜บ๐˜ฌ๐˜ข ๐˜๐˜ช๐˜จ๐˜ถ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ข
