"The next step in our journey"

The next page of our life as adolescents awaits to be written with new memories and knowledge.

As summer break ends, students of all ages prepare for another chapter of learning and socializing, filled with new opportunities, experiences, and surprises that will come our way.

The unpredictable path you may take might feel unnerving – academic stress, social anxiety, and many other things may make you feel unready for the new school year. But you'll adjust as time passes, just as you perhaps did last year.

When you step into the school campus again, you might get a wave of nostalgia, remembering the memories now embedded in your head and the old friends you made, recalling past lessons and the chaotic classroom filled with the ruckus your classmates made when the teacher was absent.

Welcome back, TRADEANS! This is a new chapter of your life, there's new memories to treasure in your heart and new lessons to build your character and knowledge for your future. Are you ready?

In the midst of all colorful fireworks and loud noises, still remember to spread the love of the new year with our loved ones.

As we leave the year 2024 we experience a strage mix of emotions. There's a sense of relief after the year that feel like an endless marathon. We are close to experiencing the sweetness of freedom and a new beginning. However many opportunities have been lost, regrets, certain words have been left unsaid and paths that left unchosen. On the other hand we should focus to the lesson learned, the appreciations and progress and developments.

As the year draws to a close, we're releasing ourselves of all the tension and the weight of expectations. Getting rid of the pressure to achieve perfection and letting go of the negative memories and pressure to be flawless. 2024 was a long drive; this year wasn't always pleasant. There were sleepless nights, disappointments, and expectations. But now we can finally accept that life is a game of chance, life is haphazard, unforseen, and fate dependent.

It's time to close the book and make the greatest memories with loved ones. The new year presents an empty page that allows us the opportunity to start again, to write a new narrative, establish a new beginning, to look ahead, and to finally let go of all the painful recollections.

Today is the final page of year 2024. Do you have any messages for your loved ones? What goals do you want to achieve? and what do you want to look forward to for the upcoming 2025??

The Hero's pen: Dr. Jose Rizal's Writings

"One only dies once, and if one does not die well, a good opportunity is lost and will not present itself again" -Dr Jose P. Rizal

December 30, Marked as Rizal Day, represents a tribute to our national hero for using his writings as a powerful tool to fight for Philippine independence and reform during the Spanish colonial era.

He is known as the "National hero of the philippines" his writings are used to symbolize nationalism and patriotism. He inspires many Filipino's to write like him.

In 1896, he was captured by Spanish colonial authorities, and then getting blindfolded and tied then eventually getting shot by the firing squad meeting his tragic end.

Let us all value Dr Jose Rizal for his writings and for how he used his pen and mind as a tool to help fight for the independence and freedom of the philippines From the chains of the Spaniards.

"Consummatum Est!" -Dr Jose P. Rizal

‘Collaborating Arts with Education’: Flame Frontline Management performs theatre play at SJDMNTS

FFM production educated the students of SJDM National Trade School through a theathrical art titled as ’Banaag’ at the school’s gymnasium, yesterday, December 14, 2024.

Rodel Mercado, Director of the production, delivered an opening speech unraveling the concept of the stage play—he also gave recognition to the school’s principal, ma’am Wilma Aquino for making the event possible with the support of the Alumni Sanggunian ng Kabataan (SK) Chairman, Andrew Esquivel, the Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao (ESP) Department, and the school’s teaching and non-teaching personnel.

Director Mercado explained that ‘Banaag’ meaning ‘a ray of light’ advocates individuals about depression and addiction—helping them to understand real-life situations if ever encountered the ‘7 deadly sins.’

Throughout the presentation, the ‘7 deadly sins’ were introduced sequentially through characters—Greed, Envy, Pride, Gluttony, Sloth, Lust, and Wrath, that are considered in the early Christian teachings as the primary source of obstacles to spiritual growth.

The objectives of the dramatic performance is to handout a lesson to those who are struggling with tough times in life while enhancing the ability to comprehend the notion of theater plays using imagination and critical thinking skills.

Ending the drama successfully, all the actors thanked the audience and gave their social media accounts so that they can be followed online since they also have theater plays that occur in some other places.
