In a heartwarming initiative that placed health and care at the forefront, the Simulation Room of HCCC transformed into a space of vision and hope on Monday, July 28, 2025 as the Senense-Lozada Optical Clinic conducted a Free Eye Check-Up for the teachers and staff of HCCC.

The event, designed to provide an accessible opportunity for HCCC employees and student assistants to check the condition of their eyes, was both a service and a gesture of gratitude for the dedication shown by the institution’s workforce.

The initiative was met with appreciation by the participants, many of whom admitted they had been putting off eye care due to time or cost.

Organizers shared that they hoped the event would inspire other institutions to invest in the well-being of their employees.

The team from Senense- Lozada Optical Clinic also worked tirelessly throughout the day, offering professional consultations and eye assessments without charge.

By the end of the day, smiles and laughter reverberated across the Simulation Room. The event proved that when communities come together with purpose and compassion, the vision of a healthier, happier future comes clearly into focus.

After a five-year pause due to the pandemic, Holy Cross College of Calinan (HCCC) proudly brought back its highly anticipated Nutrition Month celebration, marking a renewed commitment to promoting health and wellness within the school community.

Spearheaded by the Technology and Livelihood Education (TLE) Area and the School Clinic, the event officially kicked off last July 7 at the HCCC Covered Court, following the theme: “Sa PPAN (Philippine Plan of Action for Nutrition): Sama-Sama sa Nutrisyong Sapat Para sa Lahat,” underscoring the collective effort needed to achieve proper nutrition for every Filipino.

Mrs. Jessica Rabang, the TLE Coordinator, underscored the importance of the celebration, denoting: “Health is truly our greatest asset—and this is our chance to renew our commitment to promoting a healthy lifestyle among students, educators, and the entire community.”

Bringing color and cheer to the program, Kindergarten pupils delighted the audience with an energetic dance performance to the tune of “Makulay ang Buhay,” charmingly promoting healthy eating habits among young children.

Adding depth to the program, the school invited Ms. Inez Jasmir Santos, a Nutrition Officer with 23 years of experience, who spoke about the purpose and significance of the celebration.

“This year’s Nutrition Month campaign reminds us that healthy eating habits should not be viewed as a luxury, but as a necessity and a human right for every Filipino family," she shared.
