Protecting Children's in the Digital Era

          ----------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------          We all know that we’re in the digital era, where almost all children have access to the internet, opening ways for entertainment and learning. But it also opens access to serious threats, particularly online sexual abuse and exploitation. This is why the 2025 National Children's Month theme: “OSAEC-CSAEM Wakasan: Kaligtasan at Karapatan ng Bata, Ipaglaban!” ("End Online Sexual Abuse and Exploitation of Children (OSAEC) and Child Sexual Abuse or Exploitation Materials (CSAEM): Fight for the Safety and Rights of Children!"), is crucial. It reminds us that while technology can be very beneficial for childrens entertainment, growth, and learning, it must also be a safe space where children’s rights are protected and secured. Through awareness, education, and laws, we can form a great society that protects chi...

┈Twists and Turns: My 2nd Quarter Journey/┈

    ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈             The 2nd quarter is now coming to an end, and I can say that this journey had its twists and turns . I learned a lot from all of my subjects, but ICT was one of the ones that stood out the most. I discovered different codes, such as various tags and attributes -- and I actually enjoyed it. It was somehow fun learning something I once didn’t know a single thing about. ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ┈┈┈┈┈┈           Even though I enjoyed and learned a lot, conflicts were still inevitable . September -- the Science Month-- was also the peak of our club activities, so I couldn’t avoid being excused from classes. Because of that, my missed activities piled up-- especially in ICT, where missing even one day makes it hard to keep up.          Determination and discipline are what drive me to catch up. Every day after class, I do my best t...

         E ach day, we live in a world full of the undiscovered-- from the deepest parts of the sea to areas beyond Earth in outer space. There are still many things waiting to be explored and answered. This year’s National Science Month Celebration, with the theme “Harnessing the Unknown: Powering the Future through Science and Innovation,” makes us understand that these unknowns can be solved and explained through science and innovation.  ݁ . ⊹ ₊ ݁. •           T he theme shows that science is not just simply about facts and formulas, but also about discovering new things and solving real-world problems. It inspires us to explore the unknown-- whether it’s in space, creating new technology, finding cures for diseases, or addressing global problems like climate change. Just like during the recent pandemic, finding a cure would have been impossible without science. Through these, we can create a better and ...

🎋Like a bamboo, we bend but never break🎋

  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------     I n the Philippines, kids enjoy playing under the sun—games like tumbang preso, Chinese garter, and luksong baka. But the thing is—this was way back then. Now, kids barely play under the sun. Fellow Filipinos tend to always wear sunscreen, jackets, caps, sunglasses, or, in some instances, even all of them at once just to protect themselves from the sun. And this is just some of the effects of climate change.       F rom cool and calm weather, we now face scorching heat and strong typhoons. Filipinos live through this every day. The rising temperatures cause droughts, affecting crops and our water supply. Typhoons have also become more frequent and destructive, damaging homes, communities, and lives.         D espite all these challenges, the resiliency of Filipinos continues to rise. Like how José Rizal us...
