Intellect is for the intelligent opinion applied in editorial writing. Emotion is widely expressed in feature writing. Since journalism class as a special program is only given to grades nine and ten, the project aims to reach the lower levels showing interest and possessing potentials in journalistic writing.

Faith. Grace. Hope. 💙

Today, we celebrate the Feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, honoring the birth of Mama Mary and the life of faith, humility, and love that she would come to embody.

Let her example remind us to trust in God’s plan, remain faithful in times of uncertainty, and share kindness and love with others.

May we continue to look to Mary as a guiding example of faith and devotion.

Courage. Legacy. History 🇵🇭

Today, we honor the Filipino heroes who shaped our nation through their courage, sacrifice, and unwavering love for the country. As we celebrate National Heroes Day, may their stories remind us that their heroism lives not only in the past, but also in the choices we make to serve, stand up, and make a difference.

Let us remember their legacy and carry their spirit forward.

𝗡𝗘𝗪𝗦 | G8 studes stage Cosplay Quest ‘26

Embodying characters through performance, Grade 8 students of Muntinlupa Science High School staged Cosplay Quest, a two-day event held from August 26 to 27, 2026, at the school gymnasium.

Spearheaded by the MAPEH Department, the program aimed to showcase each student’s own cosplays and their section’s tasked short musical plays.

The program began with a preliminary parade where the main cosplayers from each participating section introduced themselves and presented the characters they were cosplaying.

Following the character introductions, the event proceeded to the main competition phase, where each section delivered a short musical play based on their chosen theme, followed by a group dance performance.

The showcase was conducted across two afternoon sessions from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM.

Sections Ellis, Euclid, Euler, Erdos, and Enders presented their routines on August 26, while sections Einstein, Eddington, Edison, Evans, and Eigen performed on August 27 to conclude the program.

While the results for the Best Performing Section and Best Cosplayer awards are yet to be announced, all students who presented at the activity were commended for their hard work and determination in completing their performances and upholding the importance of artistic expression and collaboration.

Ninoy Aquino Day ☀️

As Filipinos embrace the freedom they have today, they continue to remember the man who stood behind the fight for it. Ninoy Aquino—the man who used his voice when every Filipino was forced to remain silent.

A leader who was not afraid to stand up for his fellow Filipinos, even when doing so came at a great cost. His courage and sacrifice became a symbol of resistance during one of the darkest periods in Philippine history.

Filipinos commemorate Ninoy Aquino Day to honor his life, remember his sacrifice, and reflect on the legacy he left behind—the man who chose to speak when others are forced into silence.

𝗡𝗘𝗪𝗦 | From ME to WE: WEmboree 9.0 Trains Future Responders

Over the course of two days, from July 31 to August 1, one hundred young Muntinlupeños were trained to hone their survival, disaster preparedness and leadership skills through an assortment of games and exercises at the Muntinlupa Sports Complex as part of the WEmboree 9.0 Youth Camp with the theme “From ME to WE.”

The camp began with messages from Mayor Ruffy Biazon, National Youth-Commission-NCR Area Office representative Armando Angeles, Youth Affairs and Sports Development Office (YASDO) Youth Division Head Ahya Dancel-Parfan, and Muntinlupa City Department of Disaster Resilience and Management (MCDDRM) Head Erwin O. Alfonso. Participants also attended discussions on civic responsibility, environmental awareness, and climate change adaptation.

Campers did quadrant activities to learn practical skills in camp management, bandaging, rope work, and fire safety. Although the scheduled campfire was canceled due to bad weather, activities also included Social Night with cheers, games, performances, and reflection sessions to build teamwork and strengthen camaraderie.

On the last day of camp, participants had a Wellness Zumba session before showcasing their learning through simulations and challenge stations. As part of the camp, participants practiced camp management and related skills including mathematical problem-solving, water relay, and demonstrations of rope knot tying and bandaging.

Team Talino emerged as the Overall Champion, with Team Buhay placed first runner-up, Team Lakas as second runner-up, and Team Sinag as third runner-up. MCDDRM and YASDO, on behalf of the City Government of Muntinlupa, awarded all teams with monetary prizes.

Participants gained valuable skills to respond effectively to emergencies at WEmboree 9.0. They also developed an appreciation for teamwork, leadership, and community service. The program aimed to shift the mindset of the Muntinlupa youth from “ME” to “WE.”
