𝐊𝐀𝐃𝐒𝐀 𝐒𝐓𝐔𝐃𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐄𝐑𝐒’ 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐆𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐒 2024: 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐬𝐝𝐚 𝐚𝐤𝐨, 𝐒𝐚𝐬𝐚𝐦𝐚 𝐊𝐚𝐦𝐢!!

The 8th KADSA Student Leaders Congress, hosted by San Jose Academy, embraced the theme “Ignite Your Greatness: Journeying with Hope and Mission.” This year’s event took place at The Shepherd’s Palace in Candaba, Pampanga, beginning with a mass at St. Gabriel Academy, presided over by KADSA Superintendent Rev. Fr. Kennedy Neral, PhD. The mass served as a spiritual foundation, inviting the Holy Spirit to guide participants on their journey.

The congress featured insightful talks on student leadership and synodality, facilitated by esteemed alumni of KADSA SLC (Student Leaders Congress) from San Jose Academy: Bro. John Christian A. Rose, Bro. Christian Lei M. Peşimo, and Bro. Paul Timothy Y. Diño. They emphasized the three key components of synodality: communion, participation, and mission. These principles underscored the importance of unity and collaboration, reminding participants that effective leadership is rooted in collective effort and shared vision.

The speakers highlighted the significant role student leaders play in their communities and how they can positively influence those around them. This emphasis on responsibility reflects a vital moral lesson: true leadership involves serving others and striving to uplift the community. A reflective activity allowed participants to identify their strengths and weaknesses in leadership, fostering personal growth and the understanding that self-awareness is essential for effective leadership.

This year’s KADSA Congress was particularly engaging, as students were introduced to the field of agriculture, gaining hands-on experience in farming. This eye-opening activity provided a new perspective on the challenges facing the agricultural sector, reinforcing the idea that empathy and understanding of different fields are crucial for effective leadership and decision-making. Following their agricultural endeavors, students enjoyed a refreshing break at the large swimming pools at The Shepherd’s Palace. A lively zumba session took place in the pool, creating an atmosphere of fun and camaraderie. This experience highlighted the importance of balance in life—working hard but also making time for joy and connection with peers.

After settling into their rooms, students prepared for the much-anticipated gala night. Prior to the festivities, a Via Lucis was conducted, where the Stations of the Resurrection were prayed over, leading participants to the gala venue. The gala featured a glamorous ambiance reminiscent of a Hollywood red carpet, captivating all attendees and celebrating their achievements.

The night showcased the talent of students from various KADSA schools, who performed and celebrated their hard work. The after-party was a vibrant affair, filled with the energetic sounds of OPM music, fostering a sense of community among the participants.

The second day of the congress shifted focus to TED Talks, where students from different KADSA schools shared their experiences as student leaders. These talks facilitated discussions on activities that nurture leadership skills and personal development. They reinforced the moral that sharing experiences can inspire and empower others, highlighting the value of mentorship and collaboration. The event concluded with the election of a new KADSA Student Board, marking the transfer of responsibility for hosting the next congress to St. Gabriel Academy. Representatives Princess Marie Limjoco and Dave Corpuz were elected as Presidents of the KADSA Student Board Council, symbolizing the hope for future leaders committed to service and community enhancement.

This year’s KADSA Congress was not only a platform for learning and leadership development but also a celebration of community, creativity, and collaboration among student leaders. It served as a powerful reminder that true greatness is ignited through service, empathy, and a commitment to uplifting others on the journey towards a brighter future.

Ang Saint Gabriel Academy, kasama ang mga miyembro nito, ay nagsagawa ng isang kaganapan upang tapusin ang pagdiriwang ng Buwan ng Wika. Ang lahat ng nakilahok ay nagtamo ng karanasang mapagpalaya–ang kalayaang ipahayag ang kanilang kultura.

Sa simula, ang kaganapan ay nakatakdang ganapin noong ika-27 ng Agosto, at pagkatapos ay inilipat sa ika-2 ng Setyembre. Sa wakas, naisakatuparan ito noong ika-6. Bagama't ang masamang panahon ay naging sanhi ng pagkaantala ng kaganapan sa loob ng ilang araw, at sa kabila ng mga balakid, hindi ito nakapigil sa kaganapan na maganap. Ipinakita nito ang katatagan at tiyaga ng mga kasangkot, na ilan lamang sa mga katangian ng mga Pilipino.

Nagsimula ang programa sa pangunguna ng mga tagapagdaloy ng palatuntunan na sina Jairah Alizeth Madrona at Shane Princess Hermosa, at sa pangangasiwa ni G. Serafin Paraiso. Ipinamalas ng mga estudyanteng mananayaw ang kanilang husay at galing sa pamamagitan ng mga mayuming indayog at masiglang pagsasakatuparan ng kanilang pagtatanghal.

Nagpakita ng kakaibang tema ang mga estudyante-performer: ang ilan ay may temang pre-kolonyal, ang iba'y walang pang-itaas, at ang ilan naman ay nagpakita ng mga katutubong sayaw mula sa iba't ibang tribo.

Ang mga hurado, mga g**o, mag-aaral, at iba pang kasangkot ay sinigurado na hindi masasayang ang kanilang mga pagsisikap, at ang kaganapan ay natapos nang matagumpay sa pamamagitan ng paggawad ng mga parangal sa mga estudyanteng lumahok sa mga sumusunod na paligsahan: digital poster, OPM singing contest, at folk dance.

Ang tagumpay ng kaganapan ay utang sa mga SBCC assistants na nagbigay ng kanilang gabay, kasama ang SBCC activity coordinator na si G. Serafin Paraiso.

Congratulations to all of the newly elected officers in St. Gabriel Academy!

Earlier, the First Friday Mass and Induction of Officers happened. We can relate the gospel earlier at the mass to how the new officers of St. Gabriel Academy should lead our community. Even if many people says something behind your back, never doubt yourself and prove them that they are wrong.

May all of you always have courage, resillience, confidence and respect when leading our school's community to success as the role models of our school.
