The Power of Elpidio Quirino

 Elpidio Quirino, the sixth President of the Philippines, was a significant figure in the country's post-World War II reconstruction and nation-building. Born on November 16, 1890, in Vigan, Ilocos Sur, his early life was marked by humble beginnings. He worked as a barrio school teacher before pursuing law. Quirino's early career was characterized by a strong commitment to public service, which would define his later political life.   Quirino's political career began in the House of Representatives in 1919, representing Ilocos Sur. He later served as a senator and held various cabinet positions, including Secretary of Finance and Secretary of Foreign Affairs under President Manuel Roxas. His experience in these roles provided him with a comprehensive understanding of the country's economic and diplomatic challenges, which proved invaluable when he assumed the presidency.   As President, Quirino focused on post-war reconstruction, economic development, and strengthening ...

2025 National Children's Month

 The 2025 National Children's Month theme, "End OSAEC-CSAEM: Fight for Children's Safety and Rights!" highlights the pressing need to shield children from online sexual abuse, a major concern in our digital world. This theme serves as a rallying cry for society to prioritize and actively defend the well-being and rights of children. The Philippine government has established laws and initiatives like Republic Act No. 7610 and Republic Act No. 9344 to protect children from abuse and exploitation, including online dangers. Collaborations with international bodies and NGOs further boost the government's ability to tackle online sexual abuse.   Despite these efforts, challenges persist. Stronger enforcement of laws, increased awareness among parents, educators, and children about online safety, and investments in technology for monitoring online predators are essential. Protecting children's safety, dignity, and rights demands ongoing, comprehensive action from eve...

 Our country is facing a severe test that cannot be avoided at times, this is climate change. Climate change is called the most difficult test that people are going through today, because of this many people are not used to daily life.  Many animals are dying because of the weather, animals are not used to living in their habitat.

We will overcome the hardships we are going through now because of this test

THE BEAUTY OF VIGAN

 If we think of a beautiful place to visit here in Vigan, all are beautiful but only one will come to my mind, this is calle crisologo. It is very simple to look at, when you step on this calle, you will definitely think of the past. This is a place to visit in Vigan where you can see old houses, horse-drawn carriages walking along the road. This can be used to take photos if you need old things like houses, buildings, roads and so on. Calle Crisologo's history is deeply rooted in Vigan City's past as a thriving Spanish colonial trading post, evident in its preserved Spanish-Filipino architecture and cobblestone streets. Originally called Calle de Escolta de Vigan, it was renamed to honor Manuel Crisologo, a prominent Vigan native. The street's unique architecture, a blend of Chinese and Spanish influences, features ancestral houses with thick walls, red-tiled roofs, and distinctive capiz shell windows. Calle Crisologo is not only a famous street in Vigan, but it is the onl...

LIFE IN 2ND QUARTER

 Stepping into the second quarter I was nervous, because like the 1st quarter I couldn't handle being an honor. I was very nervous because maybe when I finished the second quarter I wouldn't be able to handle it either.  We went through many trials, and we overcame them. We often broke down because of too many tasks, we almost didn't sleep. There were so many tasks, and it was all at once.  But even so, we learned a lot in this quarter. We will definitely be followed by our next generation. We can carry this into our daily lives.  So I really hope that I can enter the honor this quarter. Hopefully this time I can achieve my small wish of being on the honor list.

MY TEACHER MY HERO

 Teacher's Day is celebrated in the month of October. We celebrate it every year to pay attention to our teachers who are hardworking and patient so that we can learn.  As a thank you to our teachers, the Markov family planned a simple celebration and invited all the teachers to pass by our front room. We are happy to see them dressed beautifully on Teacher's Day.  We are very grateful to you teachers because without you, we certainly would not be able to get through our lives.

SCIENCE MONTH 2025

SCIENCE MONTH was held last September. We, the Markov fam, participated in their competitions. Here was the trashion where we had two classes participating, one female and one male.  At first, we were nervous because their competition was coming up and we hadn't finished their costumes yet. But even so, we found a way to win it. My classmates and I helped each other to make our work easier. And we finished it quickly so we got rid of all our nervousness.  The next day, the competition took place, the candidates showed different styles of ramps but our classmates didn't lose.  Our two classmates won and took home the champion in both female and male categories. We were very happy for the two guys because we knew they really did their best to represent our section.
