National Indigenous Peoples Month

 National Indigenous Peoples Month


    The Philippines celebrates National Indigenous Peoples (IP) Month to honor the culture and contributions of Indigenous communities. This celebration reminds us that these communities play an important role in the country’s history and identity. It is a way to recognize their efforts in preserving their culture and passing it down to the next generations.


    Indigenous Peoples are experts in many things, like farming, weaving, and taking care of the environment. Their knowledge about nature and sustainable living is very useful for the country. By supporting and learning from them, we can help build a better and more sustainable future. 


    However, Indigenous communities still face problems. Many lack proper education, health services, and land rights. Celebrating them once a year is not enough. Real support and protection are needed so their lives and culture can continue to thrive.


    National IP Month also teaches young Filipinos to appreciate and respect Indigenous traditions. Activities like weaving workshops, cultural exhibits, and storytelling show the richness of their culture. These traditions are not only beautiful, but also teach lessons about community, hard work, and taking care of the environment.


     National Indigenous Peoples Month is a reminder that Indigenous communities are an important part of the Philippines. Protecting their rights, learning from their knowledge, and supporting them is necessary for a fair and sustainable future.

Growing My Antlers

      Growing My Antlers      The animal I want to be is a fawn. There is something about the way a fawn moves through the forest, quiet, careful, and soft-hearted, yet brave enough to keep walking even when the path is uncertain. That is how I want to feel most days. I am gentle but still learning to grow my own antlers, not to hurt anyone but to remind myself I am stronger than I appear. I try to step lightly through life, to notice small wonders, and to find peace even when the world feels noisy.      My family says I am more like a cat. They say this because I have been through a lot since I was little, surviving things I never even understood at the time. I have had moments when I was so close to danger, times when I almost did not make it, yet somehow I always land on my feet. They call it luck, like a cat with nine lives, but maybe it is more than luck. Maybe it is a quiet kind of resilience, the way life seems to tell me that I am mea...

Building a Cleaner and Safer Community Together We sweep fallen leaves to keep our surroundings clean and safe. Even small actions like this help prevent hazards and promote a healthier environment. We joined a tree-planting activity to help prevent floods and maintain fresh air. Planting trees is an investment for the next generation.   We separate biodegradable from non-biodegradable waste. Proper waste segregation reduces pollution and helps protect nature.   We properly place garbage sacks by the gate for collection. This simple habit helps maintain order and cleanliness in the community.

My Experience During The Intramurals

  My Experience During The Intramurals     The intramurals at Ilocos Sur National High School was actually pretty fun. It lasted for two whole days, and even though I didn’t join any events, I still enjoyed just being there and watching everything happen. The school felt more lively than usual because there were students everywhere, cheering, laughing, and running around from one game to another.      My friends and I spent most of our time going around and watching different sports. We started with basketball because that was where the loudest cheers were coming from. At first, I had no idea what was going on. I only knew that you get a score when you shoot the ball, but I didn’t know who gets a foul or why the referee kept blowing the whistle. My friends patiently explained the rules to me, and soon I was clapping along with the crowd. The games were so fast and intense that I didn’t even notice how much time had passed.      After that,...
