The month-long celebration hosted several contests for each grade level, including a creative story-telling contest for grade 7, a digital comic strip contest for grade 8, an essay writing contest for grade 9, an impromptu speech competition for grade 10, and a declamation contest and reading comprehension contest for all grade levels.
Led and organized by the English Faculty and Club, the celebration started on November 4, Wednesday, the first Monday of the month, wherein the kick-off video was shown during the flag-raising ceremonyโsignaling the start of the month-long celebration.
That same day, the English Department held the essay writing competition for grade 9 students at their faculty after class, with the impromptu speech for grade 10 following the next day, November 5.
On November 7 & 8, the Open for All Reading Comprehension and Digital Comic Strip Competition for Grade 8 was conducted and facilitated by the English Teachers of PBHS, with several students from different grade levels participating in the said event, respectively.
The Creative Story Telling catered to grade 7 students was the last English Month activity to be held on November 12, exactly 12 days before the English Month Culminating Activity.
